But potential doublers? That seems unlikely -- at least in the foreseeable future. After all, the Dow is a collection of the market's oldest, stodgiest, and slowest-moving companies meant for your grandmother's portfolio, right?</p>\n<p>If that's your perception of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, you might want to take another look. In recent years, the DJIA has been tweaked and modernized for the current tech-driven era. More than that, though, it includes a handful of companies that are anything but old school. One of these stocks even has the potential to double its value (again) in less than five years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/631cf3238264bad315f43eda4132590c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>It's not yesteryear's Dow Jones Industrial Average</h2>\n<p>The Dow component that has this potential: <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a>.com</b> (NYSE:CRM).</p>\n<p>Yes, the provider of a cloud-based, customer relationship management platform is, in fact, a DJIA component. It was added to the index in August 2020 (in the midst of the pandemic) along with <b>Amgen</b> (NASDAQ:AMGN) and <b>Honeywell</b> (NASDAQ:HON), replacing more-traditional stocks like <b>ExxonMobil</b>, <b>Pfizer</b>, and <b>Raytheon Technologies</b>.</p>\n<p>That round of swapping was the latest in a bigger effort to bring the index further into the 21st century. Unsurprisingly, it has juiced the Dow's returns just a bit. It's up more than 90% for the past five years despite the early 2020 swoon linked to the onset of COVID-19, and higher by 200% for the past 10 years.</p>\n<p>Salesforce didn't contribute to most of that bullish effort, but don't be surprised if it's a key driver of similar gains in the Dow over the next five- and 10-year stretches.</p>\n<h2>Salesforce's bright future</h2>\n<p>If you're not familiar with it, Salesforce is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the original companies to commercialize cloud computing, before the term even began to be widely used. Its online customer database and customer-management platform were launched in 1999, and there was nothing else quite like it at the time.</p>\n<p>That's certainly changed in the meantime. Not only is the customer relationship management (CRM) space now relatively crowded with competitors, but after 22 years of availability, the whole CRM thing has seemingly run most of its course. What's left?</p>\n<p>As it turns out, for Salesforce, quite a lot.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70402b628ff39aa410477caa22af642c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>The best days for basic CRM offerings might be in the rearview mirror, but what lies ahead are all sorts of revenue-bearing integrations with Salesforce's existing platform. For instance, earlier this week <b>FedEx</b> announced a partnership with Salesforce that will offer e-commerce and supply chain tools to business clients with such a need. In July, Salesforce completed its acquisition of intra-enterprise communication platform Slack, and by August had integrated its CRM tools with Slack's user interface. Salesforce-owned Tableau, which helps organizations collect and analyze all sorts of data, unveiled changes to its service earlier this month that will make it more secure, yet also easier to use at a greater scale.</p>\n<p>And this is just a recent sampling of how the company continues to improve its suite of services. Others have yet to be imagined. They're coming, though, spurred by the emerging new norm in workplaces: working from home (or at least working there more often).</p>\n<h2>Capitalizing on the new norm</h2>\n<p>This wasn't exactly the plan a year ago. Most organizations that expected employees to regularly report to an office before the pandemic similarly expected them to return to the office once the pandemic had passed. Working from home has worked out better than most organizations could have hoped, however, and given that the coronavirus has yet to fully pass (and might never really do so), at least some companies are rethinking their office-attendance policies altogether.</p>\n<p>Take researcher Omdia's recent Future of Work survey as an example. It indicates that more than two-thirds of all U.S. employers believe overall productivity has improved since workers were allowed to do their jobs outside of a centralized office. The same survey suggests more than half of all employees will be doing at least some work from home for the indefinite future.</p>\n<p>In this vein, PwC reports that 72% of U.S. executives currently plan to increase their investment in virtual (online) collaboration tools. Technology market researcher IDC forecasts that spending on work-based software -- including cloud-based collaboration and analytics tools -- will grow more than 21% per year through 2024.</p>\n<p>It all plays right into Salesforce's hands, setting the stage for the stock to move from its current price near $257 to a value in excess of $500.</p>\n<h2>Bottom line</h2>\n<p>There's still something of a wait before we see that move fully pan out, to be clear.</p>\n<p>Salesforce is in the right place at the right time, and it's poised for more double-digit percentage growth for the next several years. But there are limits.

But potential doublers? That seems unlikely -- at least in the foreseeable future. After all, the Dow is a collection of the market's oldest, stodgiest, and slowest-moving companies meant for your grandmother's portfolio, right?\nIf that's your perception of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, you might want to take another look. In recent years, the DJIA has been tweaked and modernized for the current tech-driven era. More than that, though, it includes a handful of companies that are anything but old school. One of these stocks even has the potential to double its value (again) in less than five years.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nIt's not yesteryear's Dow Jones Industrial Average\nThe Dow component that has this potential: Salesforce.com (NYSE:CRM).\nYes, the provider of a cloud-based, customer relationship management platform is, in fact, a DJIA component. It was added to the index in August 2020 (in the midst of the pandemic) along with Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN) and Honeywell (NASDAQ:HON), replacing more-traditional stocks like ExxonMobil, Pfizer, and Raytheon Technologies.\nThat round of swapping was the latest in a bigger effort to bring the index further into the 21st century. Unsurprisingly, it has juiced the Dow's returns just a bit. It's up more than 90% for the past five years despite the early 2020 swoon linked to the onset of COVID-19, and higher by 200% for the past 10 years.\nSalesforce didn't contribute to most of that bullish effort, but don't be surprised if it's a key driver of similar gains in the Dow over the next five- and 10-year stretches.\nSalesforce's bright future\nIf you're not familiar with it, Salesforce is one of the original companies to commercialize cloud computing, before the term even began to be widely used. Its online customer database and customer-management platform were launched in 1999, and there was nothing else quite like it at the time.\nThat's certainly changed in the meantime. Not only is the customer relationship management (CRM) space now relatively crowded with competitors, but after 22 years of availability, the whole CRM thing has seemingly run most of its course. What's left?\nAs it turns out, for Salesforce, quite a lot.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nThe best days for basic CRM offerings might be in the rearview mirror, but what lies ahead are all sorts of revenue-bearing integrations with Salesforce's existing platform. For instance, earlier this week FedEx announced a partnership with Salesforce that will offer e-commerce and supply chain tools to business clients with such a need. In July, Salesforce completed its acquisition of intra-enterprise communication platform Slack, and by August had integrated its CRM tools with Slack's user interface. Salesforce-owned Tableau, which helps organizations collect and analyze all sorts of data, unveiled changes to its service earlier this month that will make it more secure, yet also easier to use at a greater scale.\nAnd this is just a recent sampling of how the company continues to improve its suite of services. Others have yet to be imagined. They're coming, though, spurred by the emerging new norm in workplaces: working from home (or at least working there more often).\nCapitalizing on the new norm\nThis wasn't exactly the plan a year ago. Most organizations that expected employees to regularly report to an office before the pandemic similarly expected them to return to the office once the pandemic had passed. Working from home has worked out better than most organizations could have hoped, however, and given that the coronavirus has yet to fully pass (and might never really do so), at least some companies are rethinking their office-attendance policies altogether.\nTake researcher Omdia's recent Future of Work survey as an example. It indicates that more than two-thirds of all U.S. employers believe overall productivity has improved since workers were allowed to do their jobs outside of a centralized office. The same survey suggests more than half of all employees will be doing at least some work from home for the indefinite future.\nIn this vein, PwC reports that 72% of U.S. executives currently plan to increase their investment in virtual (online) collaboration tools. Technology market researcher IDC forecasts that spending on work-based software -- including cloud-based collaboration and analytics tools -- will grow more than 21% per year through 2024.\nIt all plays right into Salesforce's hands, setting the stage for the stock to move from its current price near $257 to a value in excess of $500.\nBottom line\nThere's still something of a wait before we see that move fully pan out, to be clear.\nSalesforce is in the right place at the right time, and it's poised for more double-digit percentage growth for the next several years. But there are limits. This company's clients are other companies, for example, which tend to move slowly when making purchases and entering new service contracts no matter how great the need.\nCompared to any other Dow component, though, Salesforce is still easily the company that's best positioned for strong, reliable growth for the next several years.\nData source: Thomson Reuters. Chart by author. Revenue data is in millions of dollars.\nIt's also worth noting that last year's pandemic-prompted profit surge isn't expected to be repeated, but easily could be repeated now that corporations have had time to think about and better plan their IT budgets.\nIn other words, CRM is absolutely worth the wait, although investors shouldn't have to wait too long before starting to make progress toward a doubling of the stock's price.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":882470798,"gmtCreate":1631717152814,"gmtModify":1676530617680,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/882470798","repostId":"1118481158","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118481158","pubTimestamp":1631703727,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1118481158?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-15 19:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 4 Stocks Are Netting Warren Buffett a Combined $3.1 Billion in Annual Dividend Income","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118481158","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"More than half of Berkshire Hathaway's dividend payouts are generated from four holdings.","content":"<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Dividend stocks have played a key role in the Oracle of Omaha's long-term success.</li>\n <li>Collectively, these four holdings will pay out a little over $3.1 billion in dividend income to Buffett's company over the next year.</li>\n</ul>\n<p></p>\n<p>Few if any investors have been as successful over the long run as&nbsp;<b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>'s&nbsp;(NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B)Warren Buffett.

In return for handing over $10 billion, Buffett's company was granted 100,000 preferred shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, each with a value of $100,000. Most importantly, these preferred shares yield a cool 8% annually. Although&nbsp;it remains Occidental's prerogative&nbsp;whether this dividend is paid in cash or with issued shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, Buffett and his team have the option of collecting this payout for at least a decade.</p>\n<p>It should be noted that this deal also carries warrants to purchase up to 80 million shares of Occidental Petroleum stock at $62.50 per share. Although Occidental's share price is well below this mark at the moment, a sustainable rebound in oil prices and a&nbsp;successful deleveraging of its balance sheet&nbsp;might make these warrants worthwhile years down the road.</p>\n<p>Despite Buffett and his team selling their common stock holdings in Occidental Petroleum, it's pretty evident they have no desire to part ways with this inflation-topping return of 8% each year from the preferred shares.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/444424b2704605c7e9e9c80e1827f6a7\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1324\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: APPLE.</span></p>\n<p><b>Apple: $798,652,590 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's so-called \"third business\" is another source of big-time dividend income. Innovation kingpin&nbsp;<b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL), the&nbsp;largest holding by far in Buffett's portfolio, is netting Berkshire almost $799 million annually.</p>\n<p>Apple's success is a reflection of consumers' incredible loyalty to the company, its dominance in certain categories, and its innovation. For instance, it's the most dominant provider of smartphones in the United States. According to Counterpoint Research, iPhone sales have accounted for between 53% and 65% of all U.S. smartphone share over the past three quarters. That's more than double its next closest competitor,<b>Samsung</b>. Not surprisingly, customer lines often wrap around Apple's stores when new products are launched.</p>\n<p>However,the future for Apple lies with its services and subscriptions. CEO Tim Cook is overseeing a long-term transition that'll emphasize these higher-margin platforms. Ultimately, services should reduce the revenue lumpiness associated with product cycles and improve long-term operating margins.</p>\n<p>What often gets overlooked with Apple is what a capital return superstar it's been. Since reintroducing a quarterly dividend in the summer of 2012, Apple has increased its payout by 132%. What's more, Apple spent in the neighborhood of $380 billion repurchasing 10.6 billion shares of its own common stock since commencing its share repurchase program in 2013. In other words, Apple's shareholders are getting rewarded in a multitude of ways.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f64dcdff17a24b8a4e277db734557537\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1334\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: COCA-COLA.</span></p>\n<p><b>Coca-Cola: $672,000,000 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>The fourth and final Buffett stock that's contributing a boatload of dividend income each year is beverage company&nbsp;<b>Coca-Cola</b>(NYSE:KO). Coke is&nbsp;Buffett's longest-tenured holding, at 33 years.</p>\n<p>Coca-Cola's consistent and growing profitability is a function of a couple of factors. First, it's working with incredible geographic diversity. With the exception of North Korea and Cuba, Coke sells its products in every other country around the world. This means a recession in a few countries won't necessarily hurt its profit potential.</p>\n<p>To build on this point, Coca-Cola also possesses a 20% share of the cold-beverage market in developed markets, along with a 10% share of cold beverages sold in emerging markets. This position allows it to generate plenty of predictable cash flow from developed markets while leaning on the faster growth potential of developing markets. All told, the company has more than 20 global brands bringing in at least $1 billion in annual sales.</p>\n<p>Coke's global brand awareness is tough to beat, as well. It's&nbsp;one of the most recognized brands in the world&nbsp;and has historically had little issue crossing generational gaps to reach consumers. With everything from holiday tie-ins to social media marketing at its disposal, Coke is as steady as they come in the profit department. Perhaps that's why it's raised its base annual payout for 59 consecutive years.</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>These 4 Stocks Are Netting Warren Buffett a Combined $3.1 Billion in Annual Dividend Income</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\">\nThese 4 Stocks Are Netting Warren Buffett a Combined $3.1 Billion in Annual Dividend Income\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-15 19:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nDividend stocks have played a key role in the Oracle of Omaha's long-term success.\nCollectively, these four holdings will pay out a little over $3.1 billion in dividend income to Buffett's...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"KO":"可口可乐","BAC":"美国银行","OXY":"西方石油","AAPL":"苹果","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1118481158","content_text":"Key Points\n\nDividend stocks have played a key role in the Oracle of Omaha's long-term success.\nCollectively, these four holdings will pay out a little over $3.1 billion in dividend income to Buffett's company over the next year.\n\n\nFew if any investors have been as successful over the long run as Berkshire Hathaway's (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B)Warren Buffett.

According to the company, a 100-basis-point parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve would add an estimated $8 billion in net interest income over 12 months. When rates inevitably do rise, this added net interest income will go straight to its bottom line.\nAs one final note, Bank of America has done an excellent job with its digitization efforts. With more people than ever banking online or through mobile apps, BofA has been able to consolidate some of its branches and improve its operating performance.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nOccidental Petroleum (preferred shares): $800,000,000 in annual dividend income\nThough you won't see it listed in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, Buffett's company owns $10 billion worth of preferred stock from oil and gas company Occidental Petroleum(NYSE:OXY).\nBack in 2019, Berkshire Hathaway provided $10 billion in financing to allow Occidental to acquire Anadarko Petroleum, which was also being courted by integrated oil and gas giant Chevron. In return for handing over $10 billion, Buffett's company was granted 100,000 preferred shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, each with a value of $100,000. Most importantly, these preferred shares yield a cool 8% annually. Although it remains Occidental's prerogative whether this dividend is paid in cash or with issued shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, Buffett and his team have the option of collecting this payout for at least a decade.\nIt should be noted that this deal also carries warrants to purchase up to 80 million shares of Occidental Petroleum stock at $62.50 per share. Although Occidental's share price is well below this mark at the moment, a sustainable rebound in oil prices and a successful deleveraging of its balance sheet might make these warrants worthwhile years down the road.\nDespite Buffett and his team selling their common stock holdings in Occidental Petroleum, it's pretty evident they have no desire to part ways with this inflation-topping return of 8% each year from the preferred shares.\nIMAGE SOURCE: APPLE.\nApple: $798,652,590 in annual dividend income\nBerkshire Hathaway's so-called \"third business\" is another source of big-time dividend income. Innovation kingpin Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL), the largest holding by far in Buffett's portfolio, is netting Berkshire almost $799 million annually.\nApple's success is a reflection of consumers' incredible loyalty to the company, its dominance in certain categories, and its innovation. For instance, it's the most dominant provider of smartphones in the United States. According to Counterpoint Research, iPhone sales have accounted for between 53% and 65% of all U.S. smartphone share over the past three quarters. That's more than double its next closest competitor,Samsung. Not surprisingly, customer lines often wrap around Apple's stores when new products are launched.\nHowever,the future for Apple lies with its services and subscriptions. CEO Tim Cook is overseeing a long-term transition that'll emphasize these higher-margin platforms. Ultimately, services should reduce the revenue lumpiness associated with product cycles and improve long-term operating margins.\nWhat often gets overlooked with Apple is what a capital return superstar it's been. Since reintroducing a quarterly dividend in the summer of 2012, Apple has increased its payout by 132%. What's more, Apple spent in the neighborhood of $380 billion repurchasing 10.6 billion shares of its own common stock since commencing its share repurchase program in 2013. In other words, Apple's shareholders are getting rewarded in a multitude of ways.\nIMAGE SOURCE: COCA-COLA.\nCoca-Cola: $672,000,000 in annual dividend income\nThe fourth and final Buffett stock that's contributing a boatload of dividend income each year is beverage company Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO). Coke is Buffett's longest-tenured holding, at 33 years.\nCoca-Cola's consistent and growing profitability is a function of a couple of factors. First, it's working with incredible geographic diversity. With the exception of North Korea and Cuba, Coke sells its products in every other country around the world. This means a recession in a few countries won't necessarily hurt its profit potential.\nTo build on this point, Coca-Cola also possesses a 20% share of the cold-beverage market in developed markets, along with a 10% share of cold beverages sold in emerging markets. This position allows it to generate plenty of predictable cash flow from developed markets while leaning on the faster growth potential of developing markets. All told, the company has more than 20 global brands bringing in at least $1 billion in annual sales.\nCoke's global brand awareness is tough to beat, as well. It's one of the most recognized brands in the world and has historically had little issue crossing generational gaps to reach consumers. With everything from holiday tie-ins to social media marketing at its disposal, Coke is as steady as they come in the profit department. Perhaps that's why it's raised its base annual payout for 59 consecutive years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":265,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":886918874,"gmtCreate":1631543155898,"gmtModify":1676530571570,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":13,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/886918874","repostId":"1170383544","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":318,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":888936264,"gmtCreate":1631420397058,"gmtModify":1676530545355,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like please","listText":"Like please","text":"Like please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/888936264","repostId":"1189654544","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189654544","pubTimestamp":1631406130,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1189654544?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-12 08:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US IPO Week Ahead: The Fall IPO market kicks off with a 10 IPO week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189654544","media":"Renaissance Capital","summary":"After a wave of launches in the short holiday week, 10 IPOs are scheduled to raise over $3 billion i","content":"<p>After a wave of launches in the short holiday week, 10 IPOs are scheduled to raise over $3 billion in the week ahead.</p>\n<p>Tech consultancy&nbsp;<b>Thoughtworks</b>(TWKS) plans to raise $700 million at a $6.3 billion market cap.

This year, as we get closer to the \"drop dead date\" (which hasn't yet been determined) the markets will start pricing in distortions.\"</p>\n<p>To this we can add that as we noted yesterday, distortions in the bond market are already clearly emerging, with the spread between October and November -<i>this is where the market estimates the \"drop dead date\" will take place</i>- T-Bills rising fast:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18baa5bfc2f4fcada29a0e71d4887b7e\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"528\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">The next chart shows that the T-Bill curve is clearly moving wider around the early November timeframe.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e688a9eb195944fe7e906a13a6319b8f\" tg-width=\"963\" tg-height=\"581\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">As a reminder, yesterday Treasury Secretary Yellen sent a letter to congressional leaders this morning indicating that the the Treasury will exhaust its cash and extraordinary measures \"during the month of October\". This slightly sooner than the \"October or November\" timing that the Congressional Budget Office had estimated in a report in late July.</p>\n<p>So how will the upcoming debt limit drama play out?<i>According to Goldman, there are several possible scenarios from here</i>:</p>\n<p>The most likely scenario is that Democratic leaders will attach a debt limit suspension to upcoming spending legislation to keep the federal government open past the end of the fiscal year (a \"continuing resolution\") and to provide emergency disaster relief funding related to the fires in the Western US and storm damage in the East and South.&nbsp;<b>As 46 Senate Republicans have indicated they will block a debt limit increase, there is a good chance this strategy will not succeed.</b>That said, passage of short-term debt limit might be possible as several Republican senators represent states affected by recent disasters.&nbsp; One option Republicans might consider would be to vote against the bill but decline to filibuster it, allowing it to pass with only 51 votes in the Senate. This would likely require unanimous Democratic support in that chamber, which is possible but not certain.</p>\n<p>If Senate Republicans block the spending bill later this month,<b>Democratic leaders would then need to decide whether to force the issue and risk a partial federal government shutdown, or to remove the debt limit suspension from the spending bill.</b>If lawmakers end in a stalemate, a government shutdown might follow, though Goldman does not see this as the base case.</p>\n<p>If they are unable to raise the debt limit as part of a spending bill, they might consider using the reconciliation process to pass it with only 51 votes.<b>However, this faces two challenges:</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>First, it is unclear whether all Senate Democrats would vote for a revised budget resolution that increases the debt limit by several trillion dollars</b>. if Democrats use the reconciliation process, Senate rules would probably allow them only to raise the debt limit by a specific dollar figure,<b>which would lead to more politically problematic headlines, rather than suspend it for a period of time, which has become the norm over the last decade as it does not lead to a specific dollar amount at the time of passage</b>.</li>\n <li><b>Second, the current reconciliation process to pass as much as $3.5 trillion in new spending is already underway, with House committees already in the process of considering and passing their segments of the bill in committee</b>.

This year, as we get closer to the \"drop dead date\" (which hasn't yet been determined) the markets will start pricing in distortions.\"\nTo this we can add that as we noted yesterday, distortions in the bond market are already clearly emerging, with the spread between October and November -this is where the market estimates the \"drop dead date\" will take place- T-Bills rising fast:\nThe next chart shows that the T-Bill curve is clearly moving wider around the early November timeframe.\nAs a reminder, yesterday Treasury Secretary Yellen sent a letter to congressional leaders this morning indicating that the the Treasury will exhaust its cash and extraordinary measures \"during the month of October\". This slightly sooner than the \"October or November\" timing that the Congressional Budget Office had estimated in a report in late July.\nSo how will the upcoming debt limit drama play out?According to Goldman, there are several possible scenarios from here:\nThe most likely scenario is that Democratic leaders will attach a debt limit suspension to upcoming spending legislation to keep the federal government open past the end of the fiscal year (a \"continuing resolution\") and to provide emergency disaster relief funding related to the fires in the Western US and storm damage in the East and South. As 46 Senate Republicans have indicated they will block a debt limit increase, there is a good chance this strategy will not succeed.That said, passage of short-term debt limit might be possible as several Republican senators represent states affected by recent disasters.  One option Republicans might consider would be to vote against the bill but decline to filibuster it, allowing it to pass with only 51 votes in the Senate. This would likely require unanimous Democratic support in that chamber, which is possible but not certain.\nIf Senate Republicans block the spending bill later this month,Democratic leaders would then need to decide whether to force the issue and risk a partial federal government shutdown, or to remove the debt limit suspension from the spending bill.If lawmakers end in a stalemate, a government shutdown might follow, though Goldman does not see this as the base case.\nIf they are unable to raise the debt limit as part of a spending bill, they might consider using the reconciliation process to pass it with only 51 votes.However, this faces two challenges:\n\nFirst, it is unclear whether all Senate Democrats would vote for a revised budget resolution that increases the debt limit by several trillion dollars. if Democrats use the reconciliation process, Senate rules would probably allow them only to raise the debt limit by a specific dollar figure,which would lead to more politically problematic headlines, rather than suspend it for a period of time, which has become the norm over the last decade as it does not lead to a specific dollar amount at the time of passage.\nSecond, the current reconciliation process to pass as much as $3.5 trillion in new spending is already underway, with House committees already in the process of considering and passing their segments of the bill in committee. Revising the budget resolution, which governs that process, could interfere with consideration of that legislation, and would likely take at least a couple of weeks, if not longer.If Democrats wait until Sep. 30 to test support for a debt limit increase as part of the spending bill, they might not have sufficient time to go through all of the procedures necessary to revise the resolution before the debt limit deadline.\n\nIn other words, as on every prior occasion when the debt limit was raised or extended in the last possible minute, this time is unlikely to be an exception - after all the alternative is a catastrophic outcome for the US. However, the longer Congress waits the more challenging the debt limit process becomes, and could be thrown for a loop if one or more holdouts block the process in the last minute, unleashing chaos in the market if only to provoke politicians into action.

Fueled by a torrent of monetary and fiscal stimulus, economic and earnings growth, and (until recently) a mostly receding pandemic, theS&amp;P 500stock index has rallied 20%, notching seven straight months of gains and more than 50 highs along the way. And that’s on top of last year’s 68% rebound from the market’s March 2020 lows.</p>\n<p>Tailwinds remain in place, but headwinds now loom that could slow stocks’ advance. Stimulus spending has peaked, and economic and corporate-earnings growth are likely to decelerate through the end of the year. What’s more, theFederal Reserve has all but promised to start tapering its bond buyingin coming months, and the Biden administration has proposed hiking corporate and personal tax rates. None of this is apt to sit well with holders of increasingly pricey shares.</p>\n<p>In other words,brace for a volatile fallin which conflicting forces buffet stocks, bonds, and investors. “The everything rally is behind us,” says Saira Malik, chief investment officer of global equities at Nuveen. “It’s not going to be a sharply rising economic tide that lifts all boats from here.”</p>\n<p>That’s the general consensus among the six market strategists and chief investment officers whom<i>Barron’s</i>recently consulted. All see the S&amp;P 500 ending the year near Thursday’s close of 4536. Their average target: 4585.</p>\n<p>Next year’s gains look muted, as well, relative to recent trends. The group expects the S&amp;P 500 to tack on another 6% in 2022, rising to about 4800.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb61c7b74b9b0f18a019afb4ac44ad59\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"645\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">With stocks trading for about 21 times the coming year’s expected earnings,bonds yielding little, and cash yielding less than nothing after accounting for inflation, investors face tough asset-allocation decisions. In place of the “everything rally,” which lifted fast-growing tech stocks, no-growth meme stocks, and the Dogecoins of the digital world, our market watchers recommend focusing on “quality” investments. In equities, that means shares of businesses with solid balance sheets, expanding profit margins, and ample and recurring free cash flow. Even if the averages do little in coming months, these stocks are likely to shine.</p>\n<p>The stock market’s massive rally in the past year was a gift of sorts from the Federal Reserve, which flooded the financial system with money to stave off theeconomic damage wrought by the Covid pandemic. Since March 2020, the U.S. central bank has been buying a combined $120 billion a month of U.S. Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities, while keeping its benchmark federal-funds rate target at 0% to 0.25%. These moves have depressed bond yields and pushed investors into riskier assets, including stocks.</p>\n<p>Fed Chairman Jerome <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/POWL\">Powell</a> has said that the central bank might begin to wind down, or taper, its emergency asset purchases sometime in the coming quarters, a move that could roil risk assets of all sorts. “For us, it’s very simple: Tapering is tightening,” says Mike Wilson, chief investment officer and chief U.S. equity strategist atMorgan Stanley.“It’s the first step away from maximum accommodation [by the Fed]. They’re being very calculated about it this time, but the bottom line is that it should have a negative effect on equity valuations.”</p>\n<p>The government’s stimulus spending, too, has peaked, the strategists note. Supplemental federal unemployment benefits of $300 a week expire as of Sept. 6. Although Congress seems likely to pass a bipartisan infrastructure bill this fall, the near-term economic impact will pale in comparison to the multiple rounds of stimulus introduced since March 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2cb76c498c1c4c980139e3d0514c261\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"645\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">The bill includes about $550 billion in new spending—a fraction of the trillions authorized by previous laws—and it will be spread out over many years. The short-term boost that infrastructure stimulus will give to consumer spending, which accounts for almost 70% of U.S. growth domestic product, won’t come close to what the economy saw after millions of Americans received checks from the government this past year.</p>\n<p>A budget bill approved by Democrats only should follow the infrastructure bill, and include spending to support Medicare expansion, child-care funding, free community-college tuition, public housing, and climate-related measures, among other party priorities. Congress could vote to lift taxes on corporations and high-earning individuals to offset that spending—another near-term risk to the market.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6693da658db16059fc99e08a7531675f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"645\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Other politically charged issues likewise could derail equities this fall. Congress needs to pass a debt-ceiling increase to fund the government, and a stop-gap spending bill later this month to avoid a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WASH\">Washington</a> shutdown in October.</p>\n<p>For now, our market experts are relatively sanguine about the economic impact of the Delta variant of Covid-19. As long as vaccines remain effective in minimizing severe infections that lead to hospitalizations and deaths, the negative effects of the current Covid wave will be limited largely to the travel industry and movie theaters, they say. Wall Street’s base case for the market doesn’t include a renewed wave of lockdowns that would undermine economic growth.</p>\n<p>Inflation has been a hot topic at the Fed and among investors, partly because it has been running so hot of late. The U.S. consumer price index rose at an annualized 5.4% in both June and July—a spike the Fed calls transitory, although others aren’t so sure. The strategists are taking Powell’s side of the argument; they expect inflation to fall significantly next year. Their forecasts fall between 2.5% and 3.5%, which they consider manageable for consumers and companies, and an acceptable side effect of rapid economic growth. An inflation rate above 2.5%, however, combined with Fed tapering, would mean that now ultralow bond yields should rise.</p>\n<p>“We think inflation will continue to run hotter than it has since the financial crisis, but it’s hard for us to see inflation much over 2.5% once many of the reopening-related pressures start to dissipate,” says Michael Fredericks, head of income investing for theBlackRockMulti-Asset Strategies Group. “So bond yields do need to move up, but that will happen gradually.”</p>\n<p>The strategists see the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note climbing to around 1.65% by year end. That’s about 35 basis points—or hundredths of a percentage point—above current levels, but below the 1.75% that the yield reached at its March 2021 highs. By next year, the 10-year Treasury could yield 2%, the group says. Those aren’t big moves in absolute terms, but they’re meaningful for&nbsp;the bond market—and could be even more so for stocks.</p>\n<p>Rising yields tend to weigh on stock valuations for two reasons. Higher-yielding bonds offer competition to stocks, and companies’ future earnings are worthless in the present when discounting them at a higher rate. Still, a 10-year yield around 2% won’t be enough to knock stock valuations down to pre-Covid levels. Even if yields climb, market strategists see the price/earnings multiple of the S&amp;P 500 holding well above its 30-year average of 16 times forward earnings. The index’s forward P/E topped 23 last fall.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e08d24cb421d7cc13debd76a9c6fea01\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"434\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>As long as 10-year Treasury yields stay in the 2% range, the S&amp;P 500 should be able to command a forward P/E in the high teens, strategists say. A return to the 16-times long-term average isn’t in the cards until there is more pressure from much higher yields—or something else that causes stocks to fall.</p>\n<p>If yields surge past 2% or 2.25%, investors could start to question equity valuations more seriously, says&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/STT\">State</a> Street’schief portfolio strategist, Gaurav Mallik: “We haven’t seen [the 10-year yield] above 2% for some time now, so that’s an important sentiment level for investors.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93ff6490069ab5dc1b4057f1ff7966f3\" tg-width=\"664\" tg-height=\"441\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Wilson is more concerned, noting that the stock market’s valuation risk is asymmetric: “It’s very unlikely that multiples are going to go up, and there’s a good chance that they go down more than 10% given the deceleration in growth and where we are in the cycle,” he says</p>\n<p>If 16 to 23 times forward earnings is the range, he adds, “you’re already at the very high end of that. There’s more potential risk than reward.”</p>\n<p>Some P/E-multiple compression is baked into all six strategists’ forecasts, heaping greater importance on the path of profit growth. On average, the strategists expect S&amp;P 500 earnings to jump 46% this year, to about $204, after last year’s earnings depression. That could be followed by a more normalized gain of 9% in 2022, to about $222.50.</p>\n<p>A potential headwind would be a higher federal corporate-tax rate in 2022. The details of Democrats’ spending and taxation plans will be worked out in the coming weeks, and investors can expect to hear a lot more about potential tax increases. Several strategists see a 25% federal rate on corporate profits as a likely compromise figure, above the 21% in place since 2018, but below the 28% sought by the Biden administration.</p>\n<p>An increase of that magnitude would shave about 5% off S&amp;P 500 earnings next year. The index could drop by a similar amount as the passage of the Democrats’ reconciliation bill nears this fall, but the impact should be limited to that initial correction. As with the tax cuts in December 2017, the change should be a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-time event for the market, some strategists predict.</p>\n<p>These concerns aside, investors shouldn’t miss the bigger picture: The U.S. economy is in good shape and growing robustly. The strategists expect gross domestic product to rise 6.3% this year and about 4% in 2022. “The cyclical uplift and above-trend growth will continue at least through 2022, and we want to be biased toward assets that have that exposure,” says Mallik.</p>\n<blockquote>\n “We’re going to have a hot economy this year and next. When GDP growth is above average, value beats growth and cyclicals beat defensives.”— Lori Calvasina, RBC Capital Markets\n</blockquote>\n<p>The State Street strategist recommends overweighting materials, financials, and technology in investment portfolios. That approach includes both economically sensitive companies, such as banks and miners, and steady growers in the tech sector.</p>\n<p>RBC Capital Markets’ head of U.S. equity strategy, Lori Calvasina, likewise takes a barbell approach, with both cyclical and growth exposure. Her preferred sectors are energy, financials, and technology.</p>\n<p>“Valuations are still a lot more attractive in financials and energy than growth [sectors such as technology or consumer discretionary,]” Calvasina says. “The catalyst in the near term is getting out of the current Covid wave... We’re going to have a hot economy this year and next, and traditionally when GDP growth is above average, value beats growth and cyclicals beat defensives.”</p>\n<p>But the focus on quality will be pivotal, especially moving into the second half of 2022. That’s when the Fed is likely to hike interest rates for the first time in this cycle. By 2023, the economy could return to pre-Covid growth on the order of 2%.</p>\n<p>“The historical playbook is that coming out of a recession, you tend to see low-quality outperformance that lasts about a year, then leadership flips back to high quality,” Calvasina says. “But that transition from low quality back to high quality tends to be very bumpy.”</p>\n<p><b>A Shopping List for Fall</b></p>\n<p>Most strategists favor a combination of economically sensitive stocks and steady growers, including tech shares. Financials should do well, particularly if bond yields rise.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a54c4bd114c1a5f7f700d1fc14d30d8e\" tg-width=\"970\" tg-height=\"230\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Although stocks with quality attributes have outperformed the market this summer, according to a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLK\">BlackRock</a> analysis, the quality factor has lagged since positive vaccine news was first reported last November.</p>\n<p>“We’re moving into a mid-cycle environment, when underlying economic growth remains strong but momentum begins to decelerate,” BlackRock’s Fredericks says. “Our research shows that quality stocks perform particularly well in such a period.”</p>\n<p>He recommends overweighting profitable technology companies; financials, including banks, and consumer staples and industrials with those quality characteristics.</p>\n<p>For <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WFC\">Wells Fargo</a>’s head of equity strategy, Christopher Harvey, a mix of post-pandemic beneficiaries and defensive exposure is the way to go. He constructed a basket of stocks with lower-than-average volatility—which should outperform during periods of market uncertainty or stress this fall—and high “Covid beta,” or sensitivity to good or bad news about the pandemic. One requirement; The stocks had to be rated the equivalent of Buy by Wells Fargo’s equity analysts.</p>\n<p>“There’s near-term economic uncertainty, interest-rate uncertainty, and Covid risk, and generally we’re in a seasonally weaker part of the year around September,” says Harvey. “If we can balance low vol and high Covid beta, we can mitigate a lot of the upcoming uncertainty and volatility around timing of several of those catalysts. Longer-term, though, we still want to have that [reopening exposure.]”</p>\n<p>Harvey’s list of low-volatility stocks with high Covid beta includesApple(AAPL),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>(BAC),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NTRSP\">Northern</a> Trust(NTRS),Lowe’s(LOW),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IQV\">IQVIA</a> Holdings(IQV), andMasco(MAS).</p>\n<p>Overall, banks are the most frequently recommended group for the months ahead. TheInvesco KBW Bankexchange-traded fund (KBWB) provides broad exposure to the sector in the U.S.</p>\n<p>“We like the valuations [and] credit quality; they are now allowed to buy back shares and increase dividends, and there’s higher Covid beta,” says Harvey.</p>\n<p>Cheaper valuations mean less potential downside in a market correction. And, contrary to much of the rest of the stock market, higher interest rates would be a tailwind for the banks, which could then charge more for loans.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HCSG\">Healthcare</a> stocks also have some fans. “<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HR\">Healthcare</a> has both defensive and growth attributes to it,” Wilson says. “You’re paying a lot less per unit of growth in healthcare today than you are in other sectors. So we think it provides good balance in this market when we’re worried about valuation.” Health insurerHumana(HUM) makes Wilson’s “Fresh Money Buy List” of stocks Buy-rated by <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MS\">Morgan Stanley</a> analysts and fitting his macro views.</p>\n<p>Nuveen’s Malik is also looking toward health care for relatively underpriced growth exposure, namely in the pharmaceuticals and biotechnology groups. She points toSeagen(SGEN), which is focused on oncology drugs and could be an attractive acquisition target for a pharma giant.</p>\n<p>Malik also likesAbbVie(ABBV) which trades at an undemanding eight times forward earnings and sports a 4.7% dividend yield. The coming expiration of patents on its blockbuster anti-inflammatory drug Humira has kept some investors away, but Malik is confident that management can limit the damage and sees promising drugs in development at the $200 billion company.</p>\n<p>Both stocks have had a tough time in recent days. Seagen fell more than 8% last week, to around $152, on news that its co-founder and CEO sold a large number of shares recently. AndAbbVietanked 7% Wednesday, to $112.27, after the Food and Drug Administration required new warning labels for JAK inhibitors, a type of anti-rheumatoid drug that includes one of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ABBV\">AbbVie</a>’s most promising post-Humira products.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PFE\">Pfizer</a>(PFE),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AXP\">American Express</a>(AXP),Johnson &amp; Johnson(JNJ), andCisco Systems(CSCO) are other S&amp;P 500 members that pass a<i>Barron’s</i>screen for quality attributes.</p>\n<p>After a year of steady gains, investors might be reminded this fall that stocks can also decline, as growth momentum and policy support begin to fade.

Fueled by a torrent of monetary and fiscal stimulus, economic and earnings growth, and (until recently) a mostly receding pandemic, theS&P 500stock index has rallied 20%, notching seven straight months of gains and more than 50 highs along the way. And that’s on top of last year’s 68% rebound from the market’s March 2020 lows.\nTailwinds remain in place, but headwinds now loom that could slow stocks’ advance. Stimulus spending has peaked, and economic and corporate-earnings growth are likely to decelerate through the end of the year. What’s more, theFederal Reserve has all but promised to start tapering its bond buyingin coming months, and the Biden administration has proposed hiking corporate and personal tax rates. None of this is apt to sit well with holders of increasingly pricey shares.\nIn other words,brace for a volatile fallin which conflicting forces buffet stocks, bonds, and investors. “The everything rally is behind us,” says Saira Malik, chief investment officer of global equities at Nuveen. “It’s not going to be a sharply rising economic tide that lifts all boats from here.”\nThat’s the general consensus among the six market strategists and chief investment officers whomBarron’srecently consulted. All see the S&P 500 ending the year near Thursday’s close of 4536. Their average target: 4585.\nNext year’s gains look muted, as well, relative to recent trends. The group expects the S&P 500 to tack on another 6% in 2022, rising to about 4800.\nWith stocks trading for about 21 times the coming year’s expected earnings,bonds yielding little, and cash yielding less than nothing after accounting for inflation, investors face tough asset-allocation decisions. In place of the “everything rally,” which lifted fast-growing tech stocks, no-growth meme stocks, and the Dogecoins of the digital world, our market watchers recommend focusing on “quality” investments. In equities, that means shares of businesses with solid balance sheets, expanding profit margins, and ample and recurring free cash flow. Even if the averages do little in coming months, these stocks are likely to shine.\nThe stock market’s massive rally in the past year was a gift of sorts from the Federal Reserve, which flooded the financial system with money to stave off theeconomic damage wrought by the Covid pandemic. Since March 2020, the U.S. central bank has been buying a combined $120 billion a month of U.S. Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities, while keeping its benchmark federal-funds rate target at 0% to 0.25%. These moves have depressed bond yields and pushed investors into riskier assets, including stocks.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell has said that the central bank might begin to wind down, or taper, its emergency asset purchases sometime in the coming quarters, a move that could roil risk assets of all sorts. “For us, it’s very simple: Tapering is tightening,” says Mike Wilson, chief investment officer and chief U.S. equity strategist atMorgan Stanley.“It’s the first step away from maximum accommodation [by the Fed]. They’re being very calculated about it this time, but the bottom line is that it should have a negative effect on equity valuations.”\nThe government’s stimulus spending, too, has peaked, the strategists note. Supplemental federal unemployment benefits of $300 a week expire as of Sept. 6. Although Congress seems likely to pass a bipartisan infrastructure bill this fall, the near-term economic impact will pale in comparison to the multiple rounds of stimulus introduced since March 2020.\nThe bill includes about $550 billion in new spending—a fraction of the trillions authorized by previous laws—and it will be spread out over many years. The short-term boost that infrastructure stimulus will give to consumer spending, which accounts for almost 70% of U.S. growth domestic product, won’t come close to what the economy saw after millions of Americans received checks from the government this past year.\nA budget bill approved by Democrats only should follow the infrastructure bill, and include spending to support Medicare expansion, child-care funding, free community-college tuition, public housing, and climate-related measures, among other party priorities. Congress could vote to lift taxes on corporations and high-earning individuals to offset that spending—another near-term risk to the market.\nOther politically charged issues likewise could derail equities this fall. Congress needs to pass a debt-ceiling increase to fund the government, and a stop-gap spending bill later this month to avoid a Washington shutdown in October.\nFor now, our market experts are relatively sanguine about the economic impact of the Delta variant of Covid-19. As long as vaccines remain effective in minimizing severe infections that lead to hospitalizations and deaths, the negative effects of the current Covid wave will be limited largely to the travel industry and movie theaters, they say. Wall Street’s base case for the market doesn’t include a renewed wave of lockdowns that would undermine economic growth.\nInflation has been a hot topic at the Fed and among investors, partly because it has been running so hot of late. The U.S. consumer price index rose at an annualized 5.4% in both June and July—a spike the Fed calls transitory, although others aren’t so sure. The strategists are taking Powell’s side of the argument; they expect inflation to fall significantly next year. Their forecasts fall between 2.5% and 3.5%, which they consider manageable for consumers and companies, and an acceptable side effect of rapid economic growth. An inflation rate above 2.5%, however, combined with Fed tapering, would mean that now ultralow bond yields should rise.\n“We think inflation will continue to run hotter than it has since the financial crisis, but it’s hard for us to see inflation much over 2.5% once many of the reopening-related pressures start to dissipate,” says Michael Fredericks, head of income investing for theBlackRockMulti-Asset Strategies Group. “So bond yields do need to move up, but that will happen gradually.”\nThe strategists see the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note climbing to around 1.65% by year end. That’s about 35 basis points—or hundredths of a percentage point—above current levels, but below the 1.75% that the yield reached at its March 2021 highs. By next year, the 10-year Treasury could yield 2%, the group says. Those aren’t big moves in absolute terms, but they’re meaningful for the bond market—and could be even more so for stocks.\nRising yields tend to weigh on stock valuations for two reasons. Higher-yielding bonds offer competition to stocks, and companies’ future earnings are worthless in the present when discounting them at a higher rate. Still, a 10-year yield around 2% won’t be enough to knock stock valuations down to pre-Covid levels. Even if yields climb, market strategists see the price/earnings multiple of the S&P 500 holding well above its 30-year average of 16 times forward earnings. The index’s forward P/E topped 23 last fall.\n\nAs long as 10-year Treasury yields stay in the 2% range, the S&P 500 should be able to command a forward P/E in the high teens, strategists say. A return to the 16-times long-term average isn’t in the cards until there is more pressure from much higher yields—or something else that causes stocks to fall.\nIf yields surge past 2% or 2.25%, investors could start to question equity valuations more seriously, says State Street’schief portfolio strategist, Gaurav Mallik: “We haven’t seen [the 10-year yield] above 2% for some time now, so that’s an important sentiment level for investors.”\n\nWilson is more concerned, noting that the stock market’s valuation risk is asymmetric: “It’s very unlikely that multiples are going to go up, and there’s a good chance that they go down more than 10% given the deceleration in growth and where we are in the cycle,” he says\nIf 16 to 23 times forward earnings is the range, he adds, “you’re already at the very high end of that. There’s more potential risk than reward.”\nSome P/E-multiple compression is baked into all six strategists’ forecasts, heaping greater importance on the path of profit growth. On average, the strategists expect S&P 500 earnings to jump 46% this year, to about $204, after last year’s earnings depression. That could be followed by a more normalized gain of 9% in 2022, to about $222.50.\nA potential headwind would be a higher federal corporate-tax rate in 2022. The details of Democrats’ spending and taxation plans will be worked out in the coming weeks, and investors can expect to hear a lot more about potential tax increases. Several strategists see a 25% federal rate on corporate profits as a likely compromise figure, above the 21% in place since 2018, but below the 28% sought by the Biden administration.\nAn increase of that magnitude would shave about 5% off S&P 500 earnings next year. The index could drop by a similar amount as the passage of the Democrats’ reconciliation bill nears this fall, but the impact should be limited to that initial correction. As with the tax cuts in December 2017, the change should be a one-time event for the market, some strategists predict.\nThese concerns aside, investors shouldn’t miss the bigger picture: The U.S. economy is in good shape and growing robustly. The strategists expect gross domestic product to rise 6.3% this year and about 4% in 2022. “The cyclical uplift and above-trend growth will continue at least through 2022, and we want to be biased toward assets that have that exposure,” says Mallik.\n\n “We’re going to have a hot economy this year and next. When GDP growth is above average, value beats growth and cyclicals beat defensives.”— Lori Calvasina, RBC Capital Markets\n\nThe State Street strategist recommends overweighting materials, financials, and technology in investment portfolios. That approach includes both economically sensitive companies, such as banks and miners, and steady growers in the tech sector.\nRBC Capital Markets’ head of U.S. equity strategy, Lori Calvasina, likewise takes a barbell approach, with both cyclical and growth exposure. Her preferred sectors are energy, financials, and technology.\n“Valuations are still a lot more attractive in financials and energy than growth [sectors such as technology or consumer discretionary,]” Calvasina says. “The catalyst in the near term is getting out of the current Covid wave... We’re going to have a hot economy this year and next, and traditionally when GDP growth is above average, value beats growth and cyclicals beat defensives.”\nBut the focus on quality will be pivotal, especially moving into the second half of 2022. That’s when the Fed is likely to hike interest rates for the first time in this cycle. By 2023, the economy could return to pre-Covid growth on the order of 2%.\n“The historical playbook is that coming out of a recession, you tend to see low-quality outperformance that lasts about a year, then leadership flips back to high quality,” Calvasina says. “But that transition from low quality back to high quality tends to be very bumpy.”\nA Shopping List for Fall\nMost strategists favor a combination of economically sensitive stocks and steady growers, including tech shares. Financials should do well, particularly if bond yields rise.\n\nAlthough stocks with quality attributes have outperformed the market this summer, according to a BlackRock analysis, the quality factor has lagged since positive vaccine news was first reported last November.\n“We’re moving into a mid-cycle environment, when underlying economic growth remains strong but momentum begins to decelerate,” BlackRock’s Fredericks says. “Our research shows that quality stocks perform particularly well in such a period.”\nHe recommends overweighting profitable technology companies; financials, including banks, and consumer staples and industrials with those quality characteristics.\nFor Wells Fargo’s head of equity strategy, Christopher Harvey, a mix of post-pandemic beneficiaries and defensive exposure is the way to go. He constructed a basket of stocks with lower-than-average volatility—which should outperform during periods of market uncertainty or stress this fall—and high “Covid beta,” or sensitivity to good or bad news about the pandemic. One requirement; The stocks had to be rated the equivalent of Buy by Wells Fargo’s equity analysts.\n“There’s near-term economic uncertainty, interest-rate uncertainty, and Covid risk, and generally we’re in a seasonally weaker part of the year around September,” says Harvey. “If we can balance low vol and high Covid beta, we can mitigate a lot of the upcoming uncertainty and volatility around timing of several of those catalysts. Longer-term, though, we still want to have that [reopening exposure.]”\nHarvey’s list of low-volatility stocks with high Covid beta includesApple(AAPL),Bank of America(BAC),Northern Trust(NTRS),Lowe’s(LOW),IQVIA Holdings(IQV), andMasco(MAS).\nOverall, banks are the most frequently recommended group for the months ahead. TheInvesco KBW Bankexchange-traded fund (KBWB) provides broad exposure to the sector in the U.S.\n“We like the valuations [and] credit quality; they are now allowed to buy back shares and increase dividends, and there’s higher Covid beta,” says Harvey.\nCheaper valuations mean less potential downside in a market correction. And, contrary to much of the rest of the stock market, higher interest rates would be a tailwind for the banks, which could then charge more for loans.\nHealthcare stocks also have some fans. “Healthcare has both defensive and growth attributes to it,” Wilson says. “You’re paying a lot less per unit of growth in healthcare today than you are in other sectors. So we think it provides good balance in this market when we’re worried about valuation.” Health insurerHumana(HUM) makes Wilson’s “Fresh Money Buy List” of stocks Buy-rated by Morgan Stanley analysts and fitting his macro views.\nNuveen’s Malik is also looking toward health care for relatively underpriced growth exposure, namely in the pharmaceuticals and biotechnology groups. She points toSeagen(SGEN), which is focused on oncology drugs and could be an attractive acquisition target for a pharma giant.\nMalik also likesAbbVie(ABBV) which trades at an undemanding eight times forward earnings and sports a 4.7% dividend yield. The coming expiration of patents on its blockbuster anti-inflammatory drug Humira has kept some investors away, but Malik is confident that management can limit the damage and sees promising drugs in development at the $200 billion company.\nBoth stocks have had a tough time in recent days. Seagen fell more than 8% last week, to around $152, on news that its co-founder and CEO sold a large number of shares recently. AndAbbVietanked 7% Wednesday, to $112.27, after the Food and Drug Administration required new warning labels for JAK inhibitors, a type of anti-rheumatoid drug that includes one of AbbVie’s most promising post-Humira products.\nPfizer(PFE),American Express(AXP),Johnson & Johnson(JNJ), andCisco Systems(CSCO) are other S&P 500 members that pass aBarron’sscreen for quality attributes.\nAfter a year of steady gains, investors might be reminded this fall that stocks can also decline, as growth momentum and policy support begin to fade. But underlying economic strength supports buying the dip, should the market drop from its highs. Just be more selective. And go with quality.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":249,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":815272793,"gmtCreate":1630684150912,"gmtModify":1676530377095,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/815272793","repostId":"1196145266","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196145266","pubTimestamp":1630682902,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1196145266?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-03 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Katapult stock pops after KeyBanc suggests potential for Amazon partnership","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196145266","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Katapult Holdings(NASDAQ:KPLT)shares are up over 16% after a KeyBanc Capital Markets research notes ","content":"<ul>\n <li>Katapult Holdings(NASDAQ:KPLT)shares are up over 16% after a KeyBanc Capital Markets research notes suggests the potential for an Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN)partnership in the future.</li>\n <li>Late last year, Affirm(NASDAQ:AFRM)announced the integration of Katapult into Affirm Connect, the application for customers who don't receive approval for Affirm payments.</li>\n <li>Earlier this week, Affirm announced a new partnership with Amazon that allows customers tomake monthly payments on purchases over $50.</li>\n <li>\"Although Amazon is not currently testing Affirm Connect, it may do so in the near future,\" writes KeyBanc analyst Bradley Thomas.</li>\n <li>The Affirm tie-in increases the likelihood that Katapult and other rent-to-own providers will get an opportunity for Amazon's business, says Thomas.</li>\n <li>Recent news: Last month, Katapult shares fell after the company reported asurprise second-quarter loss.</li>\n</ul>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It's been over nine months since the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> underwent even a 5% correction. Panning out a bit further, the widely followed index has doubled since hitting its bear-market low on March 23, 2020.</p>\n<p>Yet, even with the stock market mowing down record highs on a regular basis this year, Wall Street still sees value in a number of growth stocks. Based on the highest price target issued by a Wall Street analyst or investment bank, the following four growth stocks could deliver gains ranging from 116% to as much as 247%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F640299%2Fbull-market-rising-stock-chart-economy-bear-newspaper-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Tesla Motors: Implied upside of 134%</h2>\n<p>Few stocks are as polarizing on Wall Street, from the perspective of price targets, than electric vehicle (EV) company <b>Tesla Motors</b> (NASDAQ:TSLA). Whereas <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> analyst foresees approximately 90% downside in shares of the company, another believes Tesla could \"motor\" its way to $1,591 a share. This would represent 134% upside from where the company ended this past week.</p>\n<p>On one hand, Tesla has clear-cut advantages that are driving it forward. For instance, its battery technology offers more capacity, range, and power than competing EV manufacturers. Tesla has also built itself from the ground up to mass production. Based on its second-quarter deliveries of 201,250, the company looks to be on its way to topping 1 million annual deliveries by as soon as next year.&nbsp; Finally, don't overlook that Tesla has visionary Elon Musk as its CEO.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, it's unlikely that Tesla will be able to hang onto its competitive edges over the long run, with auto stocks like <b>Ford Motor Company</b>&nbsp;and <b>General Motors</b>&nbsp;respectively investing $30 billion and $35 billion through mid-decade in EVs and related technology. Both companies plan to respectively launch 30 new EVs globally by 2025.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the biggest concern is that Tesla hadn't generated a true operating profit until the latest quarter. Though it's been profitable for more than a year, the company had relied on selling renewable energy credits and one-time asset sales (e.g., <b>Bitcoin</b>) to generate a profit. If Tesla is ever going to hit $1,591 a share, its EV sales, not one-time benefits, will have to do the talking.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F640299%2Fmarijuana-cannabis-oil-pot-weed-leaf-drug-medical-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"568\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Green Thumb Industries: Implied upside of 116%</h2>\n<p>Wall Street also sees U.S. marijuana stocks budding over the coming year. In particular, one Wall Street analyst believes multistate operator (MSO) <b>Green Thumb Industries</b> (OTC:GTBIF) can rally to north of $61 a share, which would equate to 116% implied upside.</p>\n<p>The great thing for U.S. MSOs is that they don't need federal reform to thrive. We've watched 36 states legalize cannabis in some capacity, which is providing more than enough of a growth opportunity for MSOs and ancillary players to succeed. By mid-decade, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFC.U\">New Frontier</a> Data is predicting that the U.S. weed industry could bring in $41.5 billion in annual sales.</p>\n<p>Green Thumb currently has 62 operating dispensaries, with 111 total retail licenses in its back pocket and a presence in 14 states. This is a company that's been picky about its expansion and has generally focused on either high-dollar states or markets protected by limited license issuance. In Illinois, for instance, the number of retail licenses issued, in total and to a single business, is capped. This should give Green Thumb a good opportunity to gobble up market share in a billion-dollar market.</p>\n<p>But the best aspect of Green Thumb is arguably its product mix. A majority of the company's sales come from derivatives, such as vapes, edibles, and infused beverages. Since derivatives generate higher margins than dried cannabis flower and are less likely to face supply issues, they're the reason Green Thumb has been profitable on a recurring basis for the past year. In other words, Wall Street's most aggressive price target may become a reality.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c8d46ab082fe9b933b958f3354a003\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Skillz: Implied upside of 138%</h2>\n<p>Another high-growth stock at least one Wall Street analyst believes could soar is mobile gaming platform <b>Skillz</b> (NYSE:SKLZ). With a high-water price target of $25, the implication is that Skillz could return up to 138% for its shareholders over the next year.</p>\n<p>To be upfront, Skillz has performed very poorly of late. It's lost more than three-quarters of its value since early February, which is a reflection of the company's operating losses expanding. Skillz has been increasing its headcount, marketing to expand its reach, and making acquisitions. This all points to ongoing operating losses for the foreseeable future.</p>\n<p>However, there's no denying the potential for this company, either. During the first quarter, approximately 17% of its monthly active users were paying to play on its platform, which is substantially higher than the industry conversion average of around 2%. Furthermore, with Skillz acting as a middleman platform for gamers, its ongoing operating expenses (aside from marketing) are quite low. As a result, it's been consistently generating a gross margin of 95%.</p>\n<p>Probably the most exciting thing for Skillz is the multiyear agreement it signed with the National Football League (NFL) in February. Football is the most popular sport in the United States. The expectation is that NFL-themed games will hit its platform in 2022, which could bring in a number of new users and partnerships.</p>\n<p>While I do believe a $25 price target is possible, investors will need to exercise patience as Skillz focuses on expanding its brand.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F640299%2Fbiotech-lab-researcher-examining-test-tube-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Exelixis: Implied upside of 247%</h2>\n<p>But the crème de la crème of potential upside comes from biotech stock <b>Exelixis</b> (NASDAQ:EXEL). With investment firm HC Wainwright recently anointing Exelixis with a $64 price target, the implied upside for shareholders is an insane 247%, based on where it closed last week. In fact, Exelixis' share price is currently below all 13 issued Wall Street price targets.</p>\n<p>If you're looking for a reason behind Exelixis' relative \"cheapness\" to Wall Street's price targets, the company's late-June interim data release from the Cosmic-312 study holds the answer. While the ongoing phase 3 study of Exelixis' leading cancer drug, Cabometyx, in combination with atezolizumab demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival for previously untreated liver cancer patients, the data looked unlikely to produce a statistically significant survival benefit.</p>\n<p>Although this might sound like a disappointment, it's par for the course when developing cancer drugs. Thus far, Cabometyx has been approved as a treatment for first- and second-line renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. These indications alone should push its annual sales past $1 billion in 2022.</p>\n<p>However, Cabometyx is being examined in around six dozen additional studies as a monotherapy or combination treatment. If even a handful of these trials succeed, label expansion opportunities could send Exelixis markedly higher. It's worth pointing out that one of these studies, CheckMate-9ER, already led the Food and Drug Administration to approve the combination of Cabometyx and <b>Bristol Myers Squibb</b>'s cancer immunotherapy Opdivo as a treatment for first-line RCC.</p>\n<p>With a hearty cash pile and plenty of long-term momentum for Cabometyx, Exelixis looks incredibly cheap.

It's been over nine months since the benchmark S&P 500 underwent even a 5% correction. Panning out a bit further, the widely followed index has doubled since hitting its bear-market low on March 23, 2020.\nYet, even with the stock market mowing down record highs on a regular basis this year, Wall Street still sees value in a number of growth stocks. Based on the highest price target issued by a Wall Street analyst or investment bank, the following four growth stocks could deliver gains ranging from 116% to as much as 247%.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nTesla Motors: Implied upside of 134%\nFew stocks are as polarizing on Wall Street, from the perspective of price targets, than electric vehicle (EV) company Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA). Whereas one analyst foresees approximately 90% downside in shares of the company, another believes Tesla could \"motor\" its way to $1,591 a share. This would represent 134% upside from where the company ended this past week.\nOn one hand, Tesla has clear-cut advantages that are driving it forward. For instance, its battery technology offers more capacity, range, and power than competing EV manufacturers. Tesla has also built itself from the ground up to mass production. Based on its second-quarter deliveries of 201,250, the company looks to be on its way to topping 1 million annual deliveries by as soon as next year.  Finally, don't overlook that Tesla has visionary Elon Musk as its CEO.\nOn the other hand, it's unlikely that Tesla will be able to hang onto its competitive edges over the long run, with auto stocks like Ford Motor Company and General Motors respectively investing $30 billion and $35 billion through mid-decade in EVs and related technology. Both companies plan to respectively launch 30 new EVs globally by 2025.\nPerhaps the biggest concern is that Tesla hadn't generated a true operating profit until the latest quarter. Though it's been profitable for more than a year, the company had relied on selling renewable energy credits and one-time asset sales (e.g., Bitcoin) to generate a profit. If Tesla is ever going to hit $1,591 a share, its EV sales, not one-time benefits, will have to do the talking.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nGreen Thumb Industries: Implied upside of 116%\nWall Street also sees U.S. marijuana stocks budding over the coming year. In particular, one Wall Street analyst believes multistate operator (MSO) Green Thumb Industries (OTC:GTBIF) can rally to north of $61 a share, which would equate to 116% implied upside.\nThe great thing for U.S. MSOs is that they don't need federal reform to thrive. We've watched 36 states legalize cannabis in some capacity, which is providing more than enough of a growth opportunity for MSOs and ancillary players to succeed. By mid-decade, New Frontier Data is predicting that the U.S. weed industry could bring in $41.5 billion in annual sales.\nGreen Thumb currently has 62 operating dispensaries, with 111 total retail licenses in its back pocket and a presence in 14 states. This is a company that's been picky about its expansion and has generally focused on either high-dollar states or markets protected by limited license issuance. In Illinois, for instance, the number of retail licenses issued, in total and to a single business, is capped. This should give Green Thumb a good opportunity to gobble up market share in a billion-dollar market.\nBut the best aspect of Green Thumb is arguably its product mix. A majority of the company's sales come from derivatives, such as vapes, edibles, and infused beverages. Since derivatives generate higher margins than dried cannabis flower and are less likely to face supply issues, they're the reason Green Thumb has been profitable on a recurring basis for the past year. In other words, Wall Street's most aggressive price target may become a reality.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSkillz: Implied upside of 138%\nAnother high-growth stock at least one Wall Street analyst believes could soar is mobile gaming platform Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ). With a high-water price target of $25, the implication is that Skillz could return up to 138% for its shareholders over the next year.\nTo be upfront, Skillz has performed very poorly of late. It's lost more than three-quarters of its value since early February, which is a reflection of the company's operating losses expanding. Skillz has been increasing its headcount, marketing to expand its reach, and making acquisitions. This all points to ongoing operating losses for the foreseeable future.\nHowever, there's no denying the potential for this company, either. During the first quarter, approximately 17% of its monthly active users were paying to play on its platform, which is substantially higher than the industry conversion average of around 2%. Furthermore, with Skillz acting as a middleman platform for gamers, its ongoing operating expenses (aside from marketing) are quite low. As a result, it's been consistently generating a gross margin of 95%.\nProbably the most exciting thing for Skillz is the multiyear agreement it signed with the National Football League (NFL) in February. Football is the most popular sport in the United States. The expectation is that NFL-themed games will hit its platform in 2022, which could bring in a number of new users and partnerships.\nWhile I do believe a $25 price target is possible, investors will need to exercise patience as Skillz focuses on expanding its brand.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nExelixis: Implied upside of 247%\nBut the crème de la crème of potential upside comes from biotech stock Exelixis (NASDAQ:EXEL). With investment firm HC Wainwright recently anointing Exelixis with a $64 price target, the implied upside for shareholders is an insane 247%, based on where it closed last week. In fact, Exelixis' share price is currently below all 13 issued Wall Street price targets.\nIf you're looking for a reason behind Exelixis' relative \"cheapness\" to Wall Street's price targets, the company's late-June interim data release from the Cosmic-312 study holds the answer. While the ongoing phase 3 study of Exelixis' leading cancer drug, Cabometyx, in combination with atezolizumab demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival for previously untreated liver cancer patients, the data looked unlikely to produce a statistically significant survival benefit.\nAlthough this might sound like a disappointment, it's par for the course when developing cancer drugs. Thus far, Cabometyx has been approved as a treatment for first- and second-line renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. These indications alone should push its annual sales past $1 billion in 2022.\nHowever, Cabometyx is being examined in around six dozen additional studies as a monotherapy or combination treatment. If even a handful of these trials succeed, label expansion opportunities could send Exelixis markedly higher. It's worth pointing out that one of these studies, CheckMate-9ER, already led the Food and Drug Administration to approve the combination of Cabometyx and Bristol Myers Squibb's cancer immunotherapy Opdivo as a treatment for first-line RCC.\nWith a hearty cash pile and plenty of long-term momentum for Cabometyx, Exelixis looks incredibly cheap. I'm not certain that $64 is in the cards, but higher than where it currently sits is the direction it's likely headed.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":336,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835471782,"gmtCreate":1629736441546,"gmtModify":1676530117342,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please shoot up!","listText":"Please shoot up!","text":"Please shoot up!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835471782","repostId":"1179203616","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179203616","pubTimestamp":1629732335,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1179203616?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-23 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Is an Enigma.

You can see that in the shareholder base.

During its June-quarter earnings call, Palantir took nine questions from retail investors and just four from analysts.</p>\n<p>On traditional metrics, Palantir isn’t cheap. The stock trades for 25 times estimated 2022 sales. But strip away the craziness, and Palantir looks like the single best bet on the future of complex data analytics. There aren’t many other ways for investors to play the opportunity—and the world isn’t getting any simpler or less dangerous.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>Palantir Is an Enigma.

Institutions hold only 25% of Palantir shares—compared with Oracle’s(ORCL) 46%,Snowflake’s(SNOW) 58%, and Microsoft’s(MSFT) 71%.\nBut the same analyst is still bullish on Palantir and says it offers “a very interesting set of solutions to buyers that require scale and sophistication.”\nPalantir has a fanatical following among individual investors, and the company is playing to its fans. During its June-quarter earnings call, Palantir took nine questions from retail investors and just four from analysts.\nOn traditional metrics, Palantir isn’t cheap. The stock trades for 25 times estimated 2022 sales. But strip away the craziness, and Palantir looks like the single best bet on the future of complex data analytics. There aren’t many other ways for investors to play the opportunity—and the world isn’t getting any simpler or less dangerous.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":162,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835473225,"gmtCreate":1629736373367,"gmtModify":1676530117244,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok, pls like!","listText":"Ok, pls like!","text":"Ok, pls like!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835473225","repostId":"2161747692","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":71,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":832505823,"gmtCreate":1629647737662,"gmtModify":1676530085762,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/832505823","repostId":"1115632642","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115632642","pubTimestamp":1629471872,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1115632642?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-20 23:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Contrarian Investors Should Love Emerging Markets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1115632642","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Stocks in developing countries are lagging behind those in the U.S. They could be poised to outperfo","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>Stocks in developing countries are&nbsp;lagging behind those in the U.S. They could be poised to outperform in the coming years.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Emerging markets get no respect.

U.S. companies have increased earnings at arecord ratein recent years while earnings growth in emerging markets has barely budged. Since 2010, earnings per share for the S&amp;P 500 Index has grown 9.5% a year, compared with just 2.7% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. It wasn’t always this way. From 1995 to 2009, the first year for which numbers are available for emerging markets, earnings grew at roughly the same pace in developing countries as in the U.S., about 4% a year.</p>\n<p>Given the sharp divergence in earnings growth since 2010, the U.S. may seem like the better place to invest, even when all available earnings numbers are considered. Earnings growth, after all, is a key component of stock returns, and the U.S. is producing more of it. Assuming analysts’ estimates for this year and next are reliable, the S&amp;P 500 will have grown earnings 7.3% a year from 1995 to 2022, compared with just 4.4% a year for emerging markets. If U.S. companies were to maintain that lead, all else equal, expected returns would be 2.9 percentage points a year higher in the U.S. than in emerging markets.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30aba59eba1452ca5a877020ce216bec\" tg-width=\"633\" tg-height=\"418\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">But earnings growth isn’t the only driver of stock returns. Dividends and valuations play a role, too. When all three variables are considered, emerging markets appear to be the better bet. Analysts expect a dividend yield of 3% from emerging markets, compared with 1.5% for the S&amp;P 500. When combined with earnings growth, the advantage for U.S. stocks shrinks to 1.4 percentage points a year.</p>\n<p>Stocks are also much cheaper in emerging markets. They trade at 12 times next year’s earnings, whereas the comparable price-to-earnings ratio for the S&amp;P 500 is 20 times. That valuation gap tips the scale in favor of emerging markets. One way to compare price to expected payoff is to take a ratio of P/E to the sum of expected earnings growth and dividend yield (the lower the ratio the better). Based on the previous numbers, that ratio is 1.7 for emerging markets and 2.3 for the S&amp;P 500.</p>\n<p>And that may be the best case for U.S. stocks because it assumes U.S. companies will continue generating higher earnings growth and commanding much higher valuations than those in emerging markets, both questionable assumptions. It’s not obvious why earnings growth should be higher in the U.S. Investment in research and development, for instance, has beenshown to boost growth, and emerging-market companies spend as much on R&amp;D as a percentage of sales as companies in the U.S. In fact, they may soon spend more, as R&amp;D investment in emerging markets has grown at more than three times the U.S. rate since 1995.</p>\n<p>If anything, it’s more likely that earnings growth in emerging markets will outpace the U.S. in the years ahead. Developing economies are growing faster than the U.S., a tailwind for their companies, particularly as they grab market share in their countries from American companies. Also, given that recent earnings growth has been unusually high in the U.S. and strangely low in emerging markets, the roles may reverse for a while, bringing earnings growth between them closer to parity.</p>\n<p>The valuation gap between emerging markets and the U.S. could also narrow. The U.S. is rightly perceived as the safer place to invest, so it makes sense that investors are willing to pay more for U.S. companies. But how much more? The difference in P/E ratio based on forward earnings has averaged 4.7 times since 2005, the longest period for which numbers are available, and has rarely been as wide as it is today. If the gap were to close, it would be another boost for emerging markets relative to the U.S.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b9fb774ffbe544f200ac13222ee3b5e\" tg-width=\"649\" tg-height=\"371\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">All of that may explain why theconsensus among big money managersis that emerging markets will deliver higher returns than the U.S. in coming years. Value stocks in emerging markets may perform even better. With a price tag of just 9 times forward earnings, they could credibly be called the most despised stocks on the planet.</p>\n<p>Contrarian investors have taken note.

They did it by paying a higher dividend yield than U.S. stocks, generating nearly four times the earnings growth as U.S. companies and expanding their valuations while that of the S&amp;P 500 was cut by more than a third.</p>\n<p>I’m not suggesting investors replace their U.S. stocks with ones in emerging markets. But developing countries now account for about 12% of the MSCI All Country World Index, a widely followed gauge of the global stock market.

The S&P 500 declined 0.4% to 4,192.85 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite fell 1% to 13,614.51.The benchmark S&P 500 sits about 1% from its all-time high reached earlier last month, but it has been stuck around these levels for about the last two weeks. The S&P 500 is up more than 11% this year so far.Merck and Dow Inc. were the two best performers in the 30-stock benchmark, both rising more than 2%. Consumer staples and utilities were the biggest gainers among 11 S&P 500 sectors, while consumer discretionary and tech weighed on the broader market, falling 1.2% and 0.9%, respectively.Shares of General Motors climbed nearly 6.4% after the company said it expects its results for the first half of 2021 to be “significantly better” than its prior guidance.On the data front, private job growth for May accelerated at its fastest pace in nearly a year as companies hired nearly a million workers, according to a report Thursday from payroll processing firm ADP.Total hires came to 978,000 for the month, a big jump from April’s 654,000 and the largest gain since June 2020. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for 680,000.Meanwhile,first-time claims for unemployment benefitsfor the week ended May 29 totaled 385,000, versus a Dow Jones estimate of 393,000. It also marked the first time that jobless claims fell below 400,000 since the early days of the pandemic.“With ADP knocking it out of the park, and jobless claims breaking that 400k barrier—a pandemic low—all eyes will be on the larger jobs picture tomorrow,” said Mike Loewengart, a managing director at E-Trade. “With seemingly all systems go on the jobs front, the economy is flashing some very real signs that this isn’t just a comeback—expansion mode could be on the horizon.”The market may be on hold before the release of the jobs report Friday, which is likely to show an additional 671,000 nonfarm payrolls in May, according to economists polled by Dow Jones. The economy added 266,000 jobs in April.Investors continued to monitor the wild action in meme stocks, particularly theater chain AMC Entertainment. The stock tumbled as much as 30% after practically doubling in the prior session, but shares cut losses after movie theater chain said it completed a stock offering launched just hours ago,raising $587 million.The stock ended the day about 18% lower.Other meme stocks also came under pressure Thursday. Bed Bath & Beyond fell more than 27%. The SoFi Social 50 ETF (SFYF), which tracks the top 50 most widely held U.S. listed stocks on SoFi’s retail brokerage platform, tumbled more than 6%.Reminiscent of what occurred earlier this year, retail traders rallying together on Reddit triggered a short squeeze in AMC earlier this week. On Wednesday, short-sellers betting against the stock lost $2.8 billion as the shares surged, according to S3 Partners. That brings their year-to-date losses to more than $5 billion, according to S3. Short sellers are forced to buy back the stock to cut their losses when it keeps rallying like this.The meme stock bubble in GameStop earlier this year weighed on the market a bit as investors worried it meant too much speculative activity was in the stock market. As losses in hedge funds betting against the stock mounted, worries increased about a pullback in risk-taking across Wall Street that could hit the overall market. AMC’s latest surge did not appear to be causing similar concerns so far.Here are company's financial statementsSlack tops Q1 expectations, ends quarter with 169,000 total paid customersLululemon first-quarter sales rise 88%, topping estimates, as store traffic reboundsCrowdStrike stock rises as earnings, outlook top Street viewDocuSign stock pops on earnings, outlook beat","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3569225668665653","authorId":"3569225668665653","name":"ZachLoh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/39ae35b0a4b7e22dee7378b1bc1de2f6","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"Response bacK comment plz","text":"Response bacK comment plz","html":"Response bacK comment plz"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":117565856,"gmtCreate":1623152144075,"gmtModify":1704197128653,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment please, thank u.

But has AMZN been the best Big Tech player at producing alpha? The Amazon Maven faces off six mega-cap stocks.</b></blockquote><p>A&nbsp;few days ago, the Amazon Maven explained howa mere $100 monthly investment in Amazon stock&nbsp;(<b>AMZN</b>) -Get Report&nbsp;since the company’s 1997 IPO would have led to riches: $2.7 million today. It is hard to imagine a methodical, long-term investment having performed as well as this one.</p><p>But has AMZN shares created the most alpha within the mega-cap tech universe? Could investors have done much better by betting on names like Apple&nbsp;(<b>AAPL</b>) or Microsoft&nbsp;(<b>MSFT</b>) instead?</p><p><b>What is alpha?</b></p><p>First, it helps to look closer at the concept of alpha. Generally, alpha is thought to be the returns that an investor can earn in excess of a benchmark. In other words: how much has a stock or portfolio risen relative to the S&amp;P 500 or the Nasdaq? Investopediasummarizesas follows:</p><blockquote>Alpha (α) is a term used in investing to describe an investment strategy's ability to beat the market, or its ‘edge’. Alpha is also referred to as ‘excess return’ or ‘abnormal rate of return’.</blockquote><p>To me, this is a good start. But alpha should also consider one crucial factor: risk.</p><p>Beating the S&amp;P 500 might simply mean higher sensitivity to market forces (i.e. beta). So, the better question is: how much return can a stock produce<b><i>relative to risk</i></b>. I believe that this is a more complete view of alpha.</p><p><b>Amazon stock vs. the rest</b></p><p>Considering absolute returns only, Amazon stock ranks remarkably high within Big Tech for historical share price performance. The chart below shows that, over the past 10 years, AMZN has only lagged Tesla (TSLA) in annualized gains.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8474b2c893b04f99bbc62cbf3aaa9bec\" tg-width=\"683\" tg-height=\"409\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Now, let me introduce risk to the equation. Risk is often defined (maybe too simplistically) as volatility. The more a stock rises and falls from minute to minute, or day to day, or week to week, the riskier it is.</p><p>So, one way to assess a stock’s returns relative to risk, thus giving us a better idea of its alpha potential, is to divide annualized returns by annualized volatility. By this methodology, Amazon stock loses its silver medal to Microsoft.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/760869278d2e71f120fe4f1fc108de5a\" tg-width=\"680\" tg-height=\"405\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">One takeaway here is that, over the past decade, Amazon has achieved higher returns than any other FAAMG stock, but not without exposing investors to more volatility. If history repeats, investors should expect high returns to come alongside relatively sharper ups and downs as well.</p><p>Another way to think about risk, one that I have favored recently, is to think about sizable losses. A good question to ask would be: how much has a stock produced in average annual returns relative to its worst trailing 12-month (TTM) performance?</p><p>Using this methodology, not only does Amazon stock lose its silver medal, but it also drops out of the podium altogether. See chart below, and notice that Facebook has also performed better than Amazon in the past ten years in loss-adjusted terms.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/affd59dcb14135f4a2cc892ad143ec26\" tg-width=\"683\" tg-height=\"405\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Figure 4: Ratio: Annualized return vs. Worst TTM return.</p><p>DM Martins Research</p><p>Amazon, in fact, has one of the worst track records within Big Tech when it comes to sharp losses. By November 2008, AMZN had seen 57% of its value evaporate over the previous year. Only Alphabet, around the same time, performed any worse than this.</p><p><b>The key takeaways for investors</b></p><p>Having said the above, I think that Amazon investors can learn a few lessons from this historical price action analysis:</p><ul><li>Amazon has been a high-performing name, both since the IPO and over the past decade. In absolute terms, it is hard to find many stocks that have consistently delivered outsized returns.</li><li>Once risk is introduced to the discussion, Amazon stock’s performance goes from “outstanding” to a less exhilarating “solid”. Peers like Tesla, Microsoft and even Facebook seem to have been better alpha producers.

But has AMZN been the best Big Tech player at producing alpha? The Amazon Maven faces off six mega-cap stocks.A few days ago, the Amazon Maven explained howa mere $100 monthly investment in Amazon stock (AMZN) -Get Report since the company’s 1997 IPO would have led to riches: $2.7 million today. It is hard to imagine a methodical, long-term investment having performed as well as this one.But has AMZN shares created the most alpha within the mega-cap tech universe? Could investors have done much better by betting on names like Apple (AAPL) or Microsoft (MSFT) instead?What is alpha?First, it helps to look closer at the concept of alpha. Generally, alpha is thought to be the returns that an investor can earn in excess of a benchmark. In other words: how much has a stock or portfolio risen relative to the S&P 500 or the Nasdaq? Investopediasummarizesas follows:Alpha (α) is a term used in investing to describe an investment strategy's ability to beat the market, or its ‘edge’. Alpha is also referred to as ‘excess return’ or ‘abnormal rate of return’.To me, this is a good start. But alpha should also consider one crucial factor: risk.Beating the S&P 500 might simply mean higher sensitivity to market forces (i.e. beta). So, the better question is: how much return can a stock producerelative to risk. I believe that this is a more complete view of alpha.Amazon stock vs. the restConsidering absolute returns only, Amazon stock ranks remarkably high within Big Tech for historical share price performance. The chart below shows that, over the past 10 years, AMZN has only lagged Tesla (TSLA) in annualized gains.Now, let me introduce risk to the equation. Risk is often defined (maybe too simplistically) as volatility. The more a stock rises and falls from minute to minute, or day to day, or week to week, the riskier it is.So, one way to assess a stock’s returns relative to risk, thus giving us a better idea of its alpha potential, is to divide annualized returns by annualized volatility. By this methodology, Amazon stock loses its silver medal to Microsoft.One takeaway here is that, over the past decade, Amazon has achieved higher returns than any other FAAMG stock, but not without exposing investors to more volatility. If history repeats, investors should expect high returns to come alongside relatively sharper ups and downs as well.Another way to think about risk, one that I have favored recently, is to think about sizable losses. A good question to ask would be: how much has a stock produced in average annual returns relative to its worst trailing 12-month (TTM) performance?Using this methodology, not only does Amazon stock lose its silver medal, but it also drops out of the podium altogether. See chart below, and notice that Facebook has also performed better than Amazon in the past ten years in loss-adjusted terms.Figure 4: Ratio: Annualized return vs. Worst TTM return.DM Martins ResearchAmazon, in fact, has one of the worst track records within Big Tech when it comes to sharp losses. By November 2008, AMZN had seen 57% of its value evaporate over the previous year. Only Alphabet, around the same time, performed any worse than this.The key takeaways for investorsHaving said the above, I think that Amazon investors can learn a few lessons from this historical price action analysis:Amazon has been a high-performing name, both since the IPO and over the past decade. In absolute terms, it is hard to find many stocks that have consistently delivered outsized returns.Once risk is introduced to the discussion, Amazon stock’s performance goes from “outstanding” to a less exhilarating “solid”. Peers like Tesla, Microsoft and even Facebook seem to have been better alpha producers. In the 10 years that preceded the pandemic, in fact, Amazon’s volatility-adjusted returns were about the same as the S&P 500’s.AMZN investors should understand that the stock could continue to produce outsized gains, but also endure higher volatility and sharper losses, as it has in the last decade or more.As always, past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Use history as a rough guide to set expectations, but understand that share price behavior can be quite different going forward.Twitter speaksPop quiz: relative to volatility (that is, in risk-adjusted terms), which of the following mega-cap tech stock has delivered the best returns in the past 10 year?

Tesla shares closed 1.10% lower at $663.54 on Thursday and have fallen 6% so far this year.In Nio, the investment firm sold about 15.9 million shares, reducing its holding by 14% but still holds a 7.12% stake in the Chinese electric vehicle company that has justannouncedambitious plans to enter the Norway electric vehicle market, its first overseas foray.Nio shares closed 2.73% lower at $36.68 on Thursday.The investment firm added position in vaccine maker Moderna — buying about 21 million shares, raising its stake to 11.3% in the Massachusetts-based company.Moderna shares closed 1.44% lower at $160.50 on Thursday after the company reported its first quarterly profit helped by covid vaccine sales.Some other stocks sold by the firm in Q1 included Amazon.com Inc, Alphabet Inc, and Facebook Inc.Baillie Gifford’s Other Q1 buys included Illumina Inc(NASDAQ:ILMN), Shopify Inc(NYSE:SHOP), and Spotify Technology(NYSE:SPOT), Clover Health Investments Corp(NASDAQ:CLOV), Snap Inc.(NYSE:SNAP), and Li Auto Inc.(NYSE:LI).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3570769377369254","authorId":"3570769377369254","name":"Glenna","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8cb1540811be40c4d05341502c35498c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"ok pls do the same for me. thx ya","text":"ok pls do the same for me. thx ya","html":"ok pls do the same for me. thx ya"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137039374,"gmtCreate":1622266282698,"gmtModify":1704182527454,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thankfully not another Ever Green!

U.S. companies have increased earnings at arecord ratein recent years while earnings growth in emerging markets has barely budged. Since 2010, earnings per share for the S&amp;P 500 Index has grown 9.5% a year, compared with just 2.7% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. It wasn’t always this way. From 1995 to 2009, the first year for which numbers are available for emerging markets, earnings grew at roughly the same pace in developing countries as in the U.S., about 4% a year.</p>\n<p>Given the sharp divergence in earnings growth since 2010, the U.S. may seem like the better place to invest, even when all available earnings numbers are considered. Earnings growth, after all, is a key component of stock returns, and the U.S. is producing more of it. Assuming analysts’ estimates for this year and next are reliable, the S&amp;P 500 will have grown earnings 7.3% a year from 1995 to 2022, compared with just 4.4% a year for emerging markets. If U.S. companies were to maintain that lead, all else equal, expected returns would be 2.9 percentage points a year higher in the U.S. than in emerging markets.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30aba59eba1452ca5a877020ce216bec\" tg-width=\"633\" tg-height=\"418\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">But earnings growth isn’t the only driver of stock returns. Dividends and valuations play a role, too. When all three variables are considered, emerging markets appear to be the better bet. Analysts expect a dividend yield of 3% from emerging markets, compared with 1.5% for the S&amp;P 500. When combined with earnings growth, the advantage for U.S. stocks shrinks to 1.4 percentage points a year.</p>\n<p>Stocks are also much cheaper in emerging markets. They trade at 12 times next year’s earnings, whereas the comparable price-to-earnings ratio for the S&amp;P 500 is 20 times. That valuation gap tips the scale in favor of emerging markets. One way to compare price to expected payoff is to take a ratio of P/E to the sum of expected earnings growth and dividend yield (the lower the ratio the better). Based on the previous numbers, that ratio is 1.7 for emerging markets and 2.3 for the S&amp;P 500.</p>\n<p>And that may be the best case for U.S. stocks because it assumes U.S. companies will continue generating higher earnings growth and commanding much higher valuations than those in emerging markets, both questionable assumptions. It’s not obvious why earnings growth should be higher in the U.S. Investment in research and development, for instance, has beenshown to boost growth, and emerging-market companies spend as much on R&amp;D as a percentage of sales as companies in the U.S. In fact, they may soon spend more, as R&amp;D investment in emerging markets has grown at more than three times the U.S. rate since 1995.</p>\n<p>If anything, it’s more likely that earnings growth in emerging markets will outpace the U.S. in the years ahead. Developing economies are growing faster than the U.S., a tailwind for their companies, particularly as they grab market share in their countries from American companies. Also, given that recent earnings growth has been unusually high in the U.S. and strangely low in emerging markets, the roles may reverse for a while, bringing earnings growth between them closer to parity.</p>\n<p>The valuation gap between emerging markets and the U.S. could also narrow. The U.S. is rightly perceived as the safer place to invest, so it makes sense that investors are willing to pay more for U.S. companies. But how much more? The difference in P/E ratio based on forward earnings has averaged 4.7 times since 2005, the longest period for which numbers are available, and has rarely been as wide as it is today. If the gap were to close, it would be another boost for emerging markets relative to the U.S.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b9fb774ffbe544f200ac13222ee3b5e\" tg-width=\"649\" tg-height=\"371\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">All of that may explain why theconsensus among big money managersis that emerging markets will deliver higher returns than the U.S. in coming years.

They did it by paying a higher dividend yield than U.S. stocks, generating nearly four times the earnings growth as U.S. companies and expanding their valuations while that of the S&amp;P 500 was cut by more than a third.</p>\n<p>I’m not suggesting investors replace their U.S. stocks with ones in emerging markets. But developing countries now account for about 12% of the MSCI All Country World Index, a widely followed gauge of the global stock market.

Stock portfolios that allocate less than that to emerging markets should ask why — and it won’t be easy to answer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":163,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":138984488,"gmtCreate":1621905264344,"gmtModify":1704364150818,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment please, ty","listText":"Like and comment please, ty","text":"Like and comment please, ty","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":7,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/138984488","repostId":"2138159407","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":74,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":133458893,"gmtCreate":1621788317212,"gmtModify":1704362413812,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment and like please&nbsp;","listText":"Comment and like please&nbsp;","text":"Comment and like please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":7,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/133458893","repostId":"2137906121","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2137906121","pubTimestamp":1621611396,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2137906121?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-21 23:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here Are the 3 Bank Moves Warren Buffett Has Made So Far in 2021","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2137906121","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Berkshire Hathaway has continued to reduce its stakes in banks.","content":"<p><b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B) recently filed its 13F form for the first quarter of 2021, detailing what stock sales and purchases the conglomerate and the legendary investor in charge, Warren Buffett, made during the period.

All but eliminating Wells Fargo</h2>\n<p>Everyone knew it was coming, but Buffett all but made it official last quarter, nearly eliminating his position in his onetime favorite bank, <b>Wells Fargo</b> (NYSE:WFC). Berkshire Hathaway sold 51.7 million shares, dropping its stake to a mere 675,000 shares valued at $26.3 million.</p>\n<p>This essentially ends what was an epic run for the Oracle of Omaha and Wells Fargo. Buffett first purchased shares in the large U.S. bank in 1989, and by 1994, he had acquired more than 13% of its outstanding shares. At the end of the third quarter of 2019, before the pandemic, Buffett's stake, which had a rough original cost basis of just below $9 billion, was worth close to $20 billion. And at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> point back in 2017, it was reportedly worth as much as $29 billion.</p>\n<p>But as the fallout of Wells Fargo's phony accounts scandal and other revelations about its consumer abuses continued to play out, Buffett began to lose faith in the institution and started trimming his position. It looks like Buffett ultimately ended up making much less on his Wells Fargo investment than he could have, considering he sold more than 323 million shares between the end of Q1 2020 and the end of Q1 2021. During that 12-month period, the bank's shares traded from a low of $21.45 to a high of $39.07. At the end of 2019, they traded north of $53.</p>\n<p>The stock closed at $45.73 on Thursday, and many investors still believe Wells Fargo is undervalued these days, trading at 135% tangible book value (equity minus intangible assets and goodwill). Bank valuations have shot up in recent months, and Wells Fargo in particular could see more tailwinds when the Federal Reserve lifts the $1.95 trillion asset cap that the bank has been operating under since 2018.</p>\n<h2>2. Dumping <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SYF\">Synchrony Financial</a></h2>\n<p>Last quarter, Berkshire Hathaway also eliminated its entire stake in the consumer finance credit card company <b>Synchrony Financial&nbsp;</b>(NYSE:SYF), selling its 21.1 million shares. Synchrony uses what it calls a \"partner-centric\" business model under which it teams up with leading retailers and digital brands that promote Synchrony's credit cards. Consumers can get deals on specific purchases by opening Synchrony credit cards, which are often branded under a retailer's name.</p>\n<p>While I wouldn't say I saw this move coming, it doesn't entirely surprise me. Over the last year, Buffett has become even more selective about which banks he wants to own. He seems to be picking a winner or two in each banking industry subcategory -- for instance, he sold his stake in America's largest bank, <b>JPMorgan Chase</b>, and loaded up on America's second-largest bank, <b>Bank of America</b>.</p>\n<p>Considering that Buffett already has a huge position in <b>American <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXPR\">Express</a></b>, and loves the brand, that is likely going to be his pick for a credit-card-focused holding. Berkshire Hathaway likely made a good profit on that Synchrony investment, though, considering that the stock hit its highest level ever during Q1.</p>\n<h2>3. Trimming U.S. Bancorp again</h2>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway also sold about 1.45 million shares of <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> (NYSE:USB) in the first quarter -- but it still owns nearly 129.7 million shares. The Oracle of Omaha has sold small quantities of shares of the Minnesota-based regional bank a few times over the last year, and it's a bit unclear why. It does appear that he has made U.S. Bancorp his regional bank pick, though. He sold off his other regional bank holdings, including his stakes in <b>PNC Financial Services Group</b>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<b>M&amp;T Bank</b>, in the fourth quarter of 2020.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>One possible explanation relates to Buffett's well-known desire to keep his stakes in those banks below 10%, so he can avoid the additional reporting requirements that a higher ownership level would trigger. At the end of the first quarter, Buffett owned about 8.7% of U.S. Bancorp's outstanding shares. So his stock sale may have simply been a move to prepare for the bank's planned share repurchases, which should accelerate later this year. Last quarter's adjustment should maintain Berkshire Hathaway's stake at a level comfortably under the 10% threshold, even after U.S. Bancorp's total share count is reduced. </p>\n<p>Overall, I still feel confident that Buffett plans to stick with U.S. Bancorp, although I will continue to watch his moves in upcoming quarters to see if he further reduces his stake in it.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Here Are the 3 Bank Moves Warren Buffett Has Made So Far in 2021</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\">\nHere Are the 3 Bank Moves Warren Buffett Has Made So Far in 2021\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-21 23:36 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/21/here-are-the-3-bank-moves-warren-buffett-has-made/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B) recently filed its 13F form for the first quarter of 2021, detailing what stock sales and purchases the conglomerate and the legendary investor in charge, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/21/here-are-the-3-bank-moves-warren-buffett-has-made/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"USB":"美国合众银行","SYF":"Synchrony Financial","WFC":"富国银行","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/21/here-are-the-3-bank-moves-warren-buffett-has-made/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2137906121","content_text":"Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B) recently filed its 13F form for the first quarter of 2021, detailing what stock sales and purchases the conglomerate and the legendary investor in charge, Warren Buffett, made during the period.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eba49f5881708929949c30628eedc5d4\" tg-width=\"934\" tg-height=\"578\"><span>Annual GMV.

We also saw its GMV growth being converted into revenue growth as its China commerce revenue grew from 7.67B yuan to 473.68B yuan, at a CAGR of 51% over the last 10 years. While its international footprint remains considerably smaller, it still grew at a CAGR of 30.42% over the last 10 years, which was by no means slow.</p>\n<p>Even though China’s e-commerce market is expected to grow considerably slower at a CAGR of 12.4% over the next three years, from 13.8T yuan, equivalent to $2.16T in 2021 to 19.6T yuan,equivalent to $3.06T by 2024, the massive size of the market still offers tremendous upside potential for BABA and its closest competitors to grow into.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffe2dee43f267e1d1399c68e3ca60f36\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>E-commerce revenue in the U.S. Data source: Statista</span></p>\n<p>When we take things into clearer perspective by comparing China’s growth rate and size of its market to that of the U.S. e-commerce market, we could see the huge differences in their sizes and growth rates as the U.S. e-commerce market is only expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.67% from 2021 to 2025, which is significantly slower than China’s 12.4%. In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d5a8d0d8a6a2dcdf667a6f33c6c9771\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"702\"><span>Peers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>Even though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&amp;A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.</p>\n<p>One important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of&nbsp;823M AAC&nbsp;in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only&nbsp;100M AAC in Q2’C17&nbsp;as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.</p>\n<p>Therefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3b83b69b08b1f4b11a26393c8e6eead5\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Market size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research</span></p>\n<p>Even though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b97b2b4a8a182dc9846d8fb7e4039877\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"770\"><span>PDD profitability metrics &amp; revenue growth forecast.

More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3aadc32155b4108426a1a982e3b5b1c2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\"><span>China public cloud spending.

However, it’s important to note that despite this leadership, BABA is still in heavy investment mode to continue growing its market share as China’s public cloud market is expected to grow from 26.48B yuan in 2017 to 230.74B yuan by 2023, which would represent a CAGR of 43.4%, an incredibly stellar growth rate. This is especially clear when we compare China’s growth rate to the worldwide growth rate (see below) as public cloud spending worldwide is expected to grow from $145B in 2017 to $397B by 2022, that would represent a CAGR of 22.3%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06198c569504bc303c34563041dfb294\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Worldwide public cloud spending.

Source:CnTechPost; Gartner</span></p>\n<p>Therefore, I don’t find it surprising that Ali Cloud has continued to extend its lead over Alphabet’s(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG)GCP with a market share of 9.5% in 2020. While AMZN remains the clear leader in the market, its market share has been coming down considerably as public cloud spending continues to expand, indicating that there is a huge potential for growth for multiple players to exist. With BABA’s leadership in the rapidly expanding Chinese market, I’m increasingly bullish on the future profit and FCF contribution from this segment to BABA’s performance over time. Although BABA’s cloud segment has not been EBIT profitable yet (FY 21 EBIT margin: -15%, FY 20 EBIT margin: -17.5%), it’s also useful to note that GCP has also not been profitable for Alphabet as well (FY 20 EBIT margin: -42.9%, FY 19 EBIT margin: -52%). Therefore, we need to give BABA some time to scale up its cloud services in APAC and in China where it is expected to have stronger leadership to allow it to grow faster and investors should expect this to be a highly profitable segment over time.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Valuations Look Highly Compelling</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62a087c4b3ef7efc2c5dde813e3b959d\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"600\"><span>NTM TEV / EBIT 3Y range.</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2605c0e5ad364a7a43929fef204595c\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"687\"><span>EV / Fwd EBIT and EV / Fwd Rev trend.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.\nBABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers\nAnnual GMV. Data source: Company filings\nAnnual e-commerce revenue. Data source: Company filings\nBABA’s GMV grew from 1.68T yuan to 7.49T yuan in just a matter of 7 years, which represented a CAGR of 23.8%, a truly amazing growth rate. We also saw its GMV growth being converted into revenue growth as its China commerce revenue grew from 7.67B yuan to 473.68B yuan, at a CAGR of 51% over the last 10 years. While its international footprint remains considerably smaller, it still grew at a CAGR of 30.42% over the last 10 years, which was by no means slow.\nEven though China’s e-commerce market is expected to grow considerably slower at a CAGR of 12.4% over the next three years, from 13.8T yuan, equivalent to $2.16T in 2021 to 19.6T yuan,equivalent to $3.06T by 2024, the massive size of the market still offers tremendous upside potential for BABA and its closest competitors to grow into.\nE-commerce revenue in the U.S. Data source: Statista\nWhen we take things into clearer perspective by comparing China’s growth rate and size of its market to that of the U.S. e-commerce market, we could see the huge differences in their sizes and growth rates as the U.S. e-commerce market is only expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.67% from 2021 to 2025, which is significantly slower than China’s 12.4%. In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.\nPeers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nEven though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.\nOne important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of 823M AAC in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only 100M AAC in Q2’C17 as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.\nTherefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.\nMarket size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research\nEven though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.\nPDD profitability metrics & revenue growth forecast. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nWe could observe from the above chart that PDD is expected to continue growing its revenue rapidly over the next few years, even though they are expected to normalize subsequently. More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.\nChina public cloud spending.

Government data showed that headline consumer prices surged by a faster than expected 4.2% last month. Excluding food and energy, prices jumped 0.9% in April and were up 3.0% over the year. And producer prices also came in higher than expected, with core producer prices rising 4.1% in April over last year versus the 3.8% increase expected. These stronger-than-expected increases could portend some upside risk to this week's PCE print, some economists suggested.</p><p>\"The April CPI data were stronger than our expectation, suggesting a more front-loaded impact from transitory factors, pressure from semiconductor shortages and the resurgence of demand for sectors affected by the pandemic,\" Nomura Chief Economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday. \"Given that the core PCE price index is a chain-weighted index, an expected rise in spending for COVID-sensitive services could amplify the magnitude of corresponding prices.\"</p><h3>Consumer confidence</h3><p>Updated readings on sentiment among consumers are also due for release this week.</p><p>On Main Street, consumers have also observed rising prices. Inflation concerns have weighed on sentiment even as COVID-19 cases drop and more businesses reopen following widespread vaccinations.</p><p>\"Consumers have taken notice of rising inflation, as evidenced by Google Trends and the University of Michigan survey,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note, referring to the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers. \"The expectation is increasingly for higher inflation, even if dominated by transitory stories, and we believe there is risk for further upside in the near term. But, over the medium term, we expect expectations to cool alongside the core inflation trajectory, albeit to a higher trend.\"</p><p>In the University of Michigan's preliminary May consumer sentiment survey, the headline index tumbled to 82.8 from 88.3 in April, \"due to higher inflation—the highest expected year-ahead inflation rate as well as the highest long term inflation rate in the past decade,\" Richard Curtin, chief economist for the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers, wrote in a note at the time. However, he added that \"consumer spending will still advance despite higher prices due to pent-up demand and record saving balances.\"</p><p>The University of Michigan's final May sentiment print due for release on Friday is expected to firm slightly to 83.0.</p><p>Other sentiment surveys will likely show similar dips for May, due in part to rising price pressures. The Conference Board's closely watched Consumer Confidence Index will be released on Tuesday, and is expected to dip to 118.9 in May from 121.7 in April. That had, in turn, been the highest reading since February 2020, or before COVID-19 cases began to surge in the U.S. last year.</p><h3>Earnings calendar</h3><ul><li><p><b>Monday: </b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RIDE\">Lordstown Motors Corp.</a> (RIDE) after market close</p></li><li><p><b>Tuesday: </b>AutoZone (AZO) before market open; Intuit (INTU), Nordstrom (JWN), Zscaler (ZS), Agilent Technologies (A) after market close</p></li><li><p><b>Wednesday: </b>Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS), Abercrombie &amp; Fitch (ANF) before market open; American Eagle Outfitters (AEO), Nvidia (NVDA), Okta (OKTA), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNOW\">Snowflake</a> (SNOW), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WDAY\">Workday</a> (WDAY), Williams-Sonoma (WSM) after market close</p></li><li><p><b>Thursday: </b>Best Buy (BBY), Dollar General (DG) before market open; Costco (COST), The Gap (GPS), VMWare (VMW), Box (BOX), Autodesk (ADSK), HP Inc (HPQ), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a>.com Inc.

The information technology sector has sharply underperformed the broader S&P 500 so far this year, reversing course after outperforming strongly in 2020.SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 15: A pedestrian carries a shopping bag as he walks through the Union Square shopping district on April 15, 2021 in San Francisco, California. According to a report by the U.S. Commerce Department, retail sales surged 9.8 percent in March as Americans started to spend $1,400 government stimulus checks. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)Justin Sullivan via Getty Images\"Markets have basically made inflation the battleground issue for determining whether or not it's really this rotation trade that'll win out the rest of this year, or whether it's the tech and growth stocks that won out last year,\" James Liu, Clearnomics founder and CEO, told Yahoo Finance last week. \"You've seen this bounce back and forth throughout the course of this year.\"Heading into this week's PCE report, a number of other inflation prints have also exceeded expectations, pointing to an increase in both consumer and producer prices. Government data showed that headline consumer prices surged by a faster than expected 4.2% last month. Excluding food and energy, prices jumped 0.9% in April and were up 3.0% over the year. And producer prices also came in higher than expected, with core producer prices rising 4.1% in April over last year versus the 3.8% increase expected. These stronger-than-expected increases could portend some upside risk to this week's PCE print, some economists suggested.\"The April CPI data were stronger than our expectation, suggesting a more front-loaded impact from transitory factors, pressure from semiconductor shortages and the resurgence of demand for sectors affected by the pandemic,\" Nomura Chief Economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday. \"Given that the core PCE price index is a chain-weighted index, an expected rise in spending for COVID-sensitive services could amplify the magnitude of corresponding prices.\"Consumer confidenceUpdated readings on sentiment among consumers are also due for release this week.On Main Street, consumers have also observed rising prices. Inflation concerns have weighed on sentiment even as COVID-19 cases drop and more businesses reopen following widespread vaccinations.\"Consumers have taken notice of rising inflation, as evidenced by Google Trends and the University of Michigan survey,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note, referring to the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers. \"The expectation is increasingly for higher inflation, even if dominated by transitory stories, and we believe there is risk for further upside in the near term. But, over the medium term, we expect expectations to cool alongside the core inflation trajectory, albeit to a higher trend.\"In the University of Michigan's preliminary May consumer sentiment survey, the headline index tumbled to 82.8 from 88.3 in April, \"due to higher inflation—the highest expected year-ahead inflation rate as well as the highest long term inflation rate in the past decade,\" Richard Curtin, chief economist for the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers, wrote in a note at the time. However, he added that \"consumer spending will still advance despite higher prices due to pent-up demand and record saving balances.\"The University of Michigan's final May sentiment print due for release on Friday is expected to firm slightly to 83.0.Other sentiment surveys will likely show similar dips for May, due in part to rising price pressures. The Conference Board's closely watched Consumer Confidence Index will be released on Tuesday, and is expected to dip to 118.9 in May from 121.7 in April. That had, in turn, been the highest reading since February 2020, or before COVID-19 cases began to surge in the U.S. last year.Earnings calendarMonday: Lordstown Motors Corp.

But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":211,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3555321706323687","authorId":"3555321706323687","name":"KingMeng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a4230fd8d7c8381fff3acc8774ac46e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"done. do like and reply back. thanks!","text":"done. do like and reply back. thanks!","html":"done. do like and reply back. thanks!"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":895058891,"gmtCreate":1628696261213,"gmtModify":1676529825719,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why wld they return the money... hmm pls like","listText":"Why wld they return the money... hmm pls like","text":"Why wld they return the money... hmm pls like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/895058891","repostId":"2158804152","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2158804152","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":1628694729,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2158804152?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-11 23:12","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"Hackers return $258 mln of stolen digital coins to Poly Network, blockchain tracker says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2158804152","media":"Reuters","summary":"LONDON, Aug 11 (Reuters) - Hackers have returned $258 million of stolen digital coins to Poly Networ","content":"<p>LONDON, Aug 11 (Reuters) - Hackers have returned $258 million of stolen digital coins to Poly Network after stealing an estimated $600 million from the cryptocurrency platform, blockchain analytics firm Elliptic said on Wednesday.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

If this price target came to fruition, we'd be talking about a 129% increase in Tesla's stock. It's also worth mentioning that ARK invest CEO and Chief Investment Officer Cathie Wood believes Tesla can hit $3,000 a share by mid-decade.</p>\n<p>The obvious reason for bullishness has to do with the epic multi-decade vehicle replacement cycle that'll see people and businesses switching to electric vehicles (EV) and other forms of alternative energy-powered transportation. Tesla had a first-mover advantage in the U.S., and it's building a name for itself in China, which is the largest auto market in the world. By 2035, the Society of Automotive Engineers of China estimates that half of all new vehicles sold in China will be powered by alternative energy.</p>\n<p>Another reason some Wall Street analysts have rallied around Tesla is the company's clear-cut competitive advantages. For example, Tesla's batteries have higher capacity, more power, and better range than the batteries being developed by its peers. The introduction of the Model 3 also brought the price of entry-level EV ownership down considerably.</p>\n<p>But Tesla is also a highly polarizing stock, with a low price target from Wall Street of just $67. That's because there's a mountain of competition brewing in the EV space domestically and abroad. <b>General Motors</b> (NYSE:GM) plans to spend $35 billion on EVs and autonomous innovation through mid-decade.&nbsp; Meanwhile, <b>Ford Motor Company</b> (NYSE:F) is planning to spend $30 billion through 2025 on EVs.

Although it's been reporting adjusted quarterly profits for more than a year, Tesla's \"profitability\" has hinged on it selling renewable energy credits to other automakers or selling its digital assets (<b>Bitcoin</b>) for a profit. It's hard to envision Tesla being worth $1.4 trillion without even demonstrating to Wall Street that it can generate a recurring profit from selling EVs.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ca48e46c5ed915bdfaeb115d44e553\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>JD.com: Implied upside of 101%</h2>\n<p>Wall Street is also expecting big things from China's second-largest online retailer, <b>JD.com</b> (NASDAQ:JD). Though the consensus of all analysts is that JD offers a hearty 43% upside, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> analyst foresees the company making a currency-converted run at close to $105 a share. This implies potential gains of 101% for the e-commerce giant.</p>\n<p>Wall Street's fascination with JD has to do with its similarities to <b>Amazon.com</b>&nbsp;and its (pardon the pun) prime location (i.e., at the heart of China's rapidly growing economy). Though the company does, in certain instances, act as a third-party marketplace, it's primarily a direct retailer of goods to online shoppers and maintains its own inventory. Having greater control over product quality and logistics is what's helped Amazon to generate insane amounts of cash flow, and it should do the same for JD. As of the end of March, JD's annual active customer count was a stone's throw from 500 million, up 29% from the prior-year period.</p>\n<p>Equally exciting is the rapid growth JD is experiencing from its service operations, which encompasses things like healthcare services, cloud services, and advertising. In late April, <b>Cloudflare</b>&nbsp;announced that it would partner with JD to expand its network in China. For JD, Cloudflare's use of its cloud infrastructure will create another channel of fast-growing sales. In Q1, this service segment grew sales by a blistering 73% from the prior-year quarter.</p>\n<p>However, JD is far from being the only fish in the pond in the world's second-largest economy. Though being a direct retailer comes with its advantages, it's nevertheless under constant pressure from the likes of <b>Alibaba</b>&nbsp;and <b>Pinduoduo</b>. Even <b>Tencent Holdings</b>, which has been a longtime shareholder of JD, is a potential threat with its slow but steady push into mobile e-commerce.</p>\n<p>Yet, even with increasing competition and regulatory uncertainty in China, JD offers a very realistic shot at eventually hitting Wall Street's upper echelon price target. Take note, I'm not saying JD gets there within 12 months, as is the common timeframe for Wall Street price targets. But within the next few years, $105 is a very realistic target given its 20%-plus sustainable growth rate and cloud services push.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F635058%2Fsiblings-watch-tv-family-entertainment-show-network-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Netflix: Implied upside of 124%</h2>\n<p>The last megacap stock that Wall Street believes has the potential to double is streaming content provider <b>Netflix</b> (NASDAQ:NFLX). The most aggressive price target on Wall Street foresees Netflix galloping to $1,154 a share, or 124% higher than where the company settled this past week.</p>\n<p>Similar to Tesla, Wall Street's fascination with Netflix has a lot to do with the company's first-mover advantage. Folks were scratching their heads when CEO Reed Hastings decided to shift away from a highly profitable DVD-delivery business and focus his company's attention on streaming. With hindsight being 20/20, we know this was a genius move. Netflix ended June with almost 209.2 million global streaming subscribers.</p>\n<p>Netflix also has a long history of turning heads thanks to its original programming. It's released dozens of original shows and movies, many of which have turned casual subscribers into users who become hooked on the service.</p>\n<p>But there are also a number of good reasons to believe that $1,154 isn't achievable. For instance, competition in the streaming space has been steadily picking up, with Netflix losing some of its share in the United States. In particular, <b>Walt Disney</b>'s streaming service Disney+ took just 16 months to go from launch to more than 100 million subscribers. The timing of the pandemic certainly helped Disney+, however its ascension can't be ignored.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, there's uncertainty about subscriber growth in a post-pandemic world. Make no mistake about it, we're still in a global pandemic. But with vaccination rates climbing, it's a fair assumption that people are going to be spending more time outside their homes rather than in front of their televisions or laptops. This could certainly slow Netflix's subscriber growth.</p>\n<p>A final reason for skepticism in this high-water price target is Netflix's long history of net cash outflows. It's no secret that Netflix wants to expand internationally, and it's willing to spend big to gobble up international streaming share. But it's difficult to imagine Netflix being worth close to $500 billion without any consistent positive cash flow.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Can These Megacap Stocks Double?

Even Tencent Holdings, which has been a longtime shareholder of JD, is a potential threat with its slow but steady push into mobile e-commerce.\nYet, even with increasing competition and regulatory uncertainty in China, JD offers a very realistic shot at eventually hitting Wall Street's upper echelon price target. Take note, I'm not saying JD gets there within 12 months, as is the common timeframe for Wall Street price targets. But within the next few years, $105 is a very realistic target given its 20%-plus sustainable growth rate and cloud services push.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNetflix: Implied upside of 124%\nThe last megacap stock that Wall Street believes has the potential to double is streaming content provider Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX). The most aggressive price target on Wall Street foresees Netflix galloping to $1,154 a share, or 124% higher than where the company settled this past week.\nSimilar to Tesla, Wall Street's fascination with Netflix has a lot to do with the company's first-mover advantage. Folks were scratching their heads when CEO Reed Hastings decided to shift away from a highly profitable DVD-delivery business and focus his company's attention on streaming. With hindsight being 20/20, we know this was a genius move. Netflix ended June with almost 209.2 million global streaming subscribers.\nNetflix also has a long history of turning heads thanks to its original programming. It's released dozens of original shows and movies, many of which have turned casual subscribers into users who become hooked on the service.\nBut there are also a number of good reasons to believe that $1,154 isn't achievable. For instance, competition in the streaming space has been steadily picking up, with Netflix losing some of its share in the United States. In particular, Walt Disney's streaming service Disney+ took just 16 months to go from launch to more than 100 million subscribers. The timing of the pandemic certainly helped Disney+, however its ascension can't be ignored.\nFurthermore, there's uncertainty about subscriber growth in a post-pandemic world. Make no mistake about it, we're still in a global pandemic. But with vaccination rates climbing, it's a fair assumption that people are going to be spending more time outside their homes rather than in front of their televisions or laptops. This could certainly slow Netflix's subscriber growth.\nA final reason for skepticism in this high-water price target is Netflix's long history of net cash outflows. It's no secret that Netflix wants to expand internationally, and it's willing to spend big to gobble up international streaming share. But it's difficult to imagine Netflix being worth close to $500 billion without any consistent positive cash flow.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":17,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
