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.

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":940,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631703727,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118481158?lang=&edition=full_marsco","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.

IMAGE SOURCE: THE MOTLEY FOOL.</span></p>\n<p><b>Bank of America: $867,595,685 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>Buffett's golden goose on the dividend front is money-center behemoth&nbsp;<b>Bank of America</b>(NYSE:BAC). With over 1 billion shares held in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, the $0.84 base annual payout from BofA will yield almost $868 million in&nbsp;dividend income&nbsp;over the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>Bank of America is what you might call the prototypical Buffett stock. Like most bank stocks, it's a cyclical company that's primed to benefit from long periods of economic expansion. Even though recessions are an inevitable part of the economic cycle, they usually only last a few months or a couple of quarters. By comparison, periods of expansion are measured in years and allow BofA's bread-and-butter growth segments, such as loans and deposits, to thrive.</p>\n<p>What makes Bank of America such an intriguing investment at the moment is its interest-rate sensitivity. No money-center bank sees its interest income potential move up or down more because of changes in the interest rate yield curve. According to the company, a 100-basis-point parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve&nbsp;would add an estimated $8 billion in net interest income&nbsp;over 12 months. When rates inevitably do rise, this added net interest income will go straight to its bottom line.</p>\n<p>As 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.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d62012b118a588b5ce165ba9e6e12a9a\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1300\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>Occidental Petroleum (preferred shares): $800,000,000 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>Though 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&nbsp;<b>Occidental Petroleum</b>(NYSE:OXY).</p>\n<p>Back 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&nbsp;<b>Chevron</b>. 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","AAPL":"苹果","OXY":"西方石油","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BAC":"美国银行","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.

IMAGE SOURCE: THE MOTLEY FOOL.\nBank of America: $867,595,685 in annual dividend income\nBuffett's golden goose on the dividend front is money-center behemoth Bank of America(NYSE:BAC). With over 1 billion shares held in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, the $0.84 base annual payout from BofA will yield almost $868 million in dividend income over the next 12 months.\nBank of America is what you might call the prototypical Buffett stock. Like most bank stocks, it's a cyclical company that's primed to benefit from long periods of economic expansion. Even though recessions are an inevitable part of the economic cycle, they usually only last a few months or a couple of quarters. By comparison, periods of expansion are measured in years and allow BofA's bread-and-butter growth segments, such as loans and deposits, to thrive.\nWhat makes Bank of America such an intriguing investment at the moment is its interest-rate sensitivity. No money-center bank sees its interest income potential move up or down more because of changes in the interest rate yield curve. 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":937,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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,"repost":{"id":"1170383544","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631542185,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170383544?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2021-09-13 22:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170383544","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading.Alibaba,Pinduoduo,JD.COM,Baidu,DIDI,Bilibili,RL","content":"<p>Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading.Alibaba,Pinduoduo,JD.COM,Baidu,DIDI,Bilibili,RLX Technology&nbsp;and&nbsp;Tencent music&nbsp;between 1% and 9%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/634dbf9be8ba7edcb7ca8b9b2e7f1e6a\" tg-width=\"362\" tg-height=\"715\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

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.

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.

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":726,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629732335,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179203616?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2021-08-23 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Is an Enigma.

As of June 30, Palantir said it had commercial contracts with its SPAC portfolio companies with a potential value of $428 million; the revenue contribution in the latest quarter was just $3 million, or less than 1% of the total.</p>\n<p>SPACs are a highly speculative place for a public company to be parking its cash. But I’d argue that Palantir’s decision to provide capital to new customers isn’t so different from offering vendor debt financing for hardware purchases—as&nbsp;IBM(IBM) and HP Enterprise (HPE) do—or from running robust venture capital programs, as do&nbsp;Intel(INTC) and&nbsp;Salesforce.com(CRM).</p>\n<p>Even so, it makes some analysts squeamish. “While we don’t oppose thinking outside the box, we think the strategy may have been taken too far, particularly with software contracts that appear to be negotiated alongside an investment by Palantir in the same customer,” Citi’s Tyler Radke wrote in a recent research note.</p>\n<p>The outside-the-box strategy goes beyond SPACs. This past week, Palantir disclosed that it had purchased $50.7 million worth of 100-ounce gold bars—a pretty strange move, even for Palantir. I ran a text search in the SEC’s database looking for references to gold bars, and found only references to other gold companies. The move makes&nbsp;Tesla’s(TSLA) Bitcoin purchases seem mundane.</p>\n<p>The fact that Palantir decided to buy physical gold, rather than, say, the&nbsp;SPDR Gold Shares&nbsp;ETF (GLD), makes it odder still. Palatnir ends up looking like the corporate equivalent of a doomsday prepper. I tried to follow-up with Karp to ask about the sudden interest in gold, but Palantir declined to make him available.</p>\n<p>One analyst who follows the company told me that the SPAC program and the foray into gold make Palantir a hard sell for institutional investors. You can see that in the shareholder base. Institutions hold only 25% of Palantir shares—compared with&nbsp;Oracle’s(ORCL) 46%,Snowflake’s(SNOW) 58%, and&nbsp;Microsoft’s(MSFT) 71%.</p>\n<p>But 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.”</p>\n<p>Palantir 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.</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.

I tried to follow-up with Karp to ask about the sudden interest in gold, but Palantir declined to make him available.\nOne analyst who follows the company told me that the SPAC program and the foray into gold make Palantir a hard sell for institutional investors. You can see that in the shareholder base. 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":304,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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,"repost":{"id":"2161747692","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629673828,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2161747692?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2021-08-23 07:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed's Jackson Hole Symposium, personal income and spending: What to know this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2161747692","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"Traders this week are poised to focus closely on Federal Reserve policymakers' virtual appearance at","content":"<p>Traders this week are poised to focus closely on Federal Reserve policymakers' virtual appearance at the bank's annual Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium.</p>\n<p>The event, which takes place from Thursday to Saturday this week, is set to serve as a forum for more discussions around Fed policymakers' plans to announce and implement a shift in the central bank's monetary policy stance.

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.

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).

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.

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.

Theyaccountfor about two-fifths of global gross domestic product and a quarter of global stocks by market value, and yet they’re a fraction of  most U.S. investors’ stock portfolios. If there’s ever a time to give emerging markets another look, this is it.\nThat’s because emerging-market stocks are lagging behind those in the U.S. by the biggest margin in two decades. The last time they were beaten this badly was when a wave of crises in developing countries slammed their stock markets during the late 1990s while dot-com mania lifted U.S. stocks to historic heights.\n\nThis time it’s about profits. 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&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.\nGiven 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.

Moreover, a few new COVID-19 vaccines may enter the U.S. markets this year, which will result in increased competition.\nShares of Moderna fell 5.8% on Aug 19, following the reports on probe for higher risk of heart inflammation. The company’s shares have surged 259.4% so far this year against the industry’s decrease of 0.3%.\n\nImage Source: Zacks Investment Research\nWe note that the CDC concluded earlier in June that there is a “likely association” between mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines and increased cases of heart inflammation, including myocarditis and pericarditis, in adolescents and younger adults. Heart inflammation was reported after the first dose of mRNA-1273 and BNT162b in a small proportion of individuals,which increased further following the second dose. However, similar inflammation cases were not reported following vaccination with J&J’s JNJ adenovirus-based COVID-19 vaccine. Following the investigation, the labels of both mRNA-based vaccines were updated to include a warning label for increased risk of myocarditis.\nMeanwhile, the United States is not the only country to probe various risks with possible links to mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines. Earlier this month, the European Medicines Agency initiated an investigation to study three new conditions found in a small proportion of individuals receiving mRNA-based vaccination. The individuals immunized with an mRNA-based vaccine reported that they developed either erythema multiforme (allergic skin reaction), glomerulonephritis (kidney inflammation) and/or nephrotic syndrome (renal disorder).\nModerna, Inc.

Theyaccountfor about two-fifths of global gross domestic product and a quarter of global stocks by market value, and yet they’re a fraction of &nbsp;most U.S. investors’ stock portfolios. If there’s ever a time to give emerging markets another look, this is it.</p>\n<p>That’s because emerging-market stocks are lagging behind those in the U.S. by the biggest margin in two decades. The last time they were beaten this badly was when a wave of crises in developing countries slammed their stock markets during the late 1990s while dot-com mania lifted U.S. stocks to historic heights.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dd22e89c12797121db43fe00543e1eb7\" tg-width=\"669\" tg-height=\"402\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>This time it’s about profits. 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. Boston based money manager GMOestimatesthat emerging-market value stocks will return 3.2% a year after inflation over the next seven years, compared with a negative 8.2% a year for U.S. stocks. Rob Arnott, founder of index provider Research Affiliates, hassaidthat half of his liquid investments are invested in value stocks from developing countries.</p>\n<p>It’s worth noting that the last time emerging market stocks performed this badly relative to the U.S., they went on to beat the S&amp;P 500 by 14 percentage points a year from 2000 to 2007, and value stocks won by 15 percentage points a year.

Theyaccountfor about two-fifths of global gross domestic product and a quarter of global stocks by market value, and yet they’re a fraction of  most U.S. investors’ stock portfolios. If there’s ever a time to give emerging markets another look, this is it.\nThat’s because emerging-market stocks are lagging behind those in the U.S. by the biggest margin in two decades. The last time they were beaten this badly was when a wave of crises in developing countries slammed their stock markets during the late 1990s while dot-com mania lifted U.S. stocks to historic heights.\n\nThis time it’s about profits. 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&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.\nGiven 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&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.\nBut 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&P 500. When combined with earnings growth, the advantage for U.S. stocks shrinks to 1.4 percentage points a year.\nStocks 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&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&P 500.\nAnd 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&D as a percentage of sales as companies in the U.S. In fact, they may soon spend more, as R&D investment in emerging markets has grown at more than three times the U.S. rate since 1995.\nIf 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.\nThe 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.\nAll 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.\nContrarian investors have taken note. Boston based money manager GMOestimatesthat emerging-market value stocks will return 3.2% a year after inflation over the next seven years, compared with a negative 8.2% a year for U.S. stocks. Rob Arnott, founder of index provider Research Affiliates, hassaidthat half of his liquid investments are invested in value stocks from developing countries.\nIt’s worth noting that the last time emerging market stocks performed this badly relative to the U.S., they went on to beat the S&P 500 by 14 percentage points a year from 2000 to 2007, and value stocks won by 15 percentage points a year. 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&P 500 was cut by more than a third.\nI’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":517,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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":305,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":233,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":151018919,"gmtCreate":1625057165431,"gmtModify":1703734997909,"author":{"id":"3582110607927501","authorId":"3582110607927501","name":"Syrope","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ddaf202594282f1436af195f5cd39e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like please, thank u","listText":"Like please, thank u","text":"Like please, thank u","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/151018919","repostId":"1195094821","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":213,"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,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582110607927501","authorIdStr":"3582110607927501"},"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,"repost":{"id":"1170383544","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631542185,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170383544?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2021-09-13 22:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170383544","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading.Alibaba,Pinduoduo,JD.COM,Baidu,DIDI,Bilibili,RL","content":"<p>Hot chinese concept stocks dipped in morning trading.Alibaba,Pinduoduo,JD.COM,Baidu,DIDI,Bilibili,RLX Technology&nbsp;and&nbsp;Tencent music&nbsp;between 1% and 9%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/634dbf9be8ba7edcb7ca8b9b2e7f1e6a\" tg-width=\"362\" tg-height=\"715\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
