downside stock buffers (see \"4 Reasons Why The Market Doldrums End With Next Friday's Op-Ex\").</p>\n<p>So picking up on the topic of Friday' potentially market-moving opex, Goldman' in-house derivatives expert, Rocky Fishman, previews June’s upcoming expiration which he dubs as \"large - comparable to a typical quarterly.\" Specifically,<b>there are $1.8 trillion of SPX options expiring on Friday, in addition to $240 billion of SPY options and $200 billion of options on SPX and SPX E-mini futures.</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d1ece116794c7f6523250fd682450e3\"

referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>It's worth noting that according to Goldman estimates that combos account<b>for 15-20% of SPX options,</b>so an adjusted open interest total would add up to $1.5tln, still much larger than total expiring single stock open interest ($775bln). Furthermore, with stocks at all time highs, it is to be expected that most of the June open interest is below the current SPX spot price.

Furthermore, with stocks at all time highs, it is to be expected that most of the June open interest is below the current SPX spot price. As shown in the chart below, the dual peaks are at 3,900 and 4,150. This means that after Friday, there may be a certain \"anti\"-gravity around those spots until gamma is refilled.\n\nThe Goldman strategist then explains what he believes is below the abnormally low level of realized market vol, noting that - as we discussed last week - it is consistent with long gamma positioning.

If the German philosopher were alive today, he’d be posting that everyone should get in on trading meme stocks and cryptocurrency. Not to get rich—though that’s a nice side benefit—but to strike back at the investor class. “It’s worthwhile running some risk in order to relieve the enemy of his money,” Marxwrote. I’m right there with you, Karl.</p>\n<p>Working-class millennials have been denied the chance to build generational wealth over the course of our professional careers. Many of us are risking what little we have left as a way of raging against a machine we feel is rigged against us. And we’re following in Marx’s footsteps.</p>\n<p>After a friend died in 1864, Marx received £820 in a bequest, his biographerrecounts. That comes out to roughly $151,500 today after adjusting for inflation and applying current conversion rates. Marx used a portion of his inheritance to become a financial speculator, often engaging in the same sort of penny-stock bubble schemes that the notorious WallStreetBets sub-Reddit has been accused of engaging in this year. “[Stocks] are springing up like mushrooms this year,” Marx wrote in a letter to his uncle, bragging that he had already made £400 from speculation. He added that many of his investments were typically “forced up to quite an unreasonable level and then, for the most part, collapse.”</p>\n<p>Marx’s trading stories are difficult to substantiate, but millennials’ love of meme stocks is very real. I’ve already made more this year from trading meme stocks and cryptocurrency than I have as a professional writer. I’ve come to look at the meme stock boom as millennials’ chance to finally build wealth. But if not, we’re content with making the investors largely responsible for our financial woes feel a bit of the pain they’ve inflicted on us. Short-sellers are losing their shirts to the tune of$4.5 billionon meme stocks so far.</p>\n<p>As a 34-year-old American, almost every generational stereotype applies to me. HuffPost’s Michael Hobbessummed upmillennials’ financial situation best in 2017: “My rent consumes nearly half my income, I haven’t had a steady job since Pluto was a planet and my savings are dwindling faster than the ice caps the baby boomers melted.”</p>\n<p>Perhaps because we’re the only American generation to live through two major recessions and two wars in our coming-up years, we’re the first generation to be financially worse off than our parents, despite beingbetter educatedon average. We paid for it, too. A year of college that cost $10,000 for boomers set millennials back more than $15,000 on average in inflation-adjusted dollars, according toBloomberg. Millennials of color, particularly Black millennials, have it worse. They graduated witheven more student debtthan their white classmates, arefar less likelyto be hired in white-collar professions, and their households earnjust 60%of what their white coworkers make.</p>\n<p>Millennials’ high-priced educations haven’t bought us much job security. A 2018 Gallup studycalledmillennials the “job-hopping generation.” Maybe, but not by choice. A 2019University of Chicago studyfound millennials actually long for a stable career. It should come as little surprise, then, that a generation plagued with job insecurity and mounting debt is leading the“baby bust.”The birth rate is at its lowest inthree decades. There may not be enough working-age Americans to care for the nation’s swelling senior population. Boomers effectively climbed the class ladder, then took a saw and cut off the rungs below them. (And they still ask us when we’ll give them grandchildren!)</p>\n<p>If all that doesn’t make meme stocks and cryptocurrency more appealing, at least it might help explain why some of us just don’t care any more about playing it safe. I’ll be the first to admit that investing in meme stocks isn’t a sustainable way to build wealth. A lot more of us will get hurt than get rich. But I’m not primarily investing to make money: I want the investors who crashed the economy and got bailed out in my senior year of college—thustorpedoingmy career earning potential—to feel at least a little bit of the hardship they put my generation through. And given thepredominantly millennialcomposition of /r/WallStreetBets, I know I’m not the only rage-driven investor.</p>\n<p>There’s plenty to be mad about. Like we saw withGameStop,workers organizing to make the stock market pay out in our favor results in strict blowback. After Redditors speculated GameStop shares through the roof in late January, mobile trading app Robinhood not only restricted trading, but evenreportedlysold investors’ GameStop shares without their consent. (Robinhooddeniesforced-selling occurred.) When it came to light that Robinhood had afinancial relationshipwith firms that help route its customers’ orders, it made a lot of newbie investors like me even more jaded about the markets.</p>\n<p>In March, when New York City opened movie theaters, I decided to buy AMC shares on a lark for $7 apiece. As of early June, my investment has appreciated in value by more than 550%. That could evaporate, but I’m taking a lesson from GameStop. Its stock is still trading at more than $250 per share despite starting the year under $20. I plan on continuing to hold my AMC shares in hopes the value will increase even more. When it’s finally time, I’ll sell half and re-invest my profits in cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p>When that happens, I’ll be far from the only millennial betting big on crypto. According to Business Insider, my generation ischiefly responsiblefor the sudden rise of cryptocurrency in 2021, in which both blue-chip digital currencies like Ethereum, as well as joke cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, are thriving. Ethereum’s price has gone from $730.97 per coin on Jan. 1 to a peak of over $4,000 in May. Dogecoin hasappreciatedby more than 21,000% since its inception as a meme in 2013. (I’m still kicking myself for selling my Dogecoin when it was trading for less than 10 cents, even though I still made thousands in profit). Millennials’ commitment to crypto is now forcing the giants to play along: In March,Morgan Stanleybecame thefirst bankto offer Bitcoin funds to its wealthy clients. And as if on cue, now that the workers have made a little money in the rigged casino, U.S. regulators are reportedly preparing a “crackdown” on cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p>Millennials went through childhood being told we had to work hard to have financial security. Then we were told we had to shackle ourselves with debt to get a college degree that would get us a good job. Then we were told that only a lucky few actually build wealth from their jobs and that to have true financial success, we should invest. And then when we invested, we were told we were doing it wrong. I get the message. Millennials aren’t meant to win. Financial security isn’t for us. So if we can make a few grand by speculating penny stocks to the moon and hurt a few smug hedge fund vultures in the process, we’ll settle for that.</p>\n<p><b>Corrections &amp; Amplifications</b>: Citadel Securities is a market-maker that provides services for Robinhood, not a hedge fund.

Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&amp;T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&amp;P 500 and S&amp;P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&amp;P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&amp;P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Charter Communications</b></p>\n<p>Charter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.</p>\n<p>The sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.</p>\n<p>Shares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><i>* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.</i></p>","source":"lsy1584348713084","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nHere’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-28 23:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html><strong>Yahoo</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"CHTR":"特许通讯","CVX":"雪佛龙","KO":"可口可乐","AAPL":"苹果","002594":"比亚迪","01211":"比亚迪股份","MCO":"穆迪","VZ":"威瑞森","USB":"美国合众银行","AXP":"美国运通","BAC":"美国银行"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1104198438","content_text":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":219,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":156226434,"gmtCreate":1625226458928,"gmtModify":1703738775556,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Best time to buy now.

Expectations are for a 0.50 reading, higher than April’s 0.24 figure. A positive reading indicates economic growth that is above historical trends.\nTuesday 6/22\nThe National Associationof Realtors reports existing-home sales for May. Economists forecast a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.7 million homes sold, about 150,000 fewer than the April data. Existing-home sales have fallen for three consecutive months, as supply hasn’t been able to keep up with demand.\nWednesday 6/23\nEquinix hosts its 2021 analyst day, when the company will update its long-term financial outlook.\nGlaxoSmithKline hosts a conference call, featuring its CEO, Emma Walmsley, to update investors on the company’s strategy for growth and shareholder value creation.\nJohnson & Johnson hosts a webcast to discuss its ESG strategy.\nThe Census Bureaureports new residential construction data for May.

Expectations are for a 61.5 reading for the Manufacturing PMI, and a 69.8 figure for the Services PMI. Both projections are comparable to the May data as well as being near record highs for their respective indexes.\nThursday 6/24\nThe Bureau of Economic Analysisreports the third and final estimate of first-quarter gross-domestic-product growth. Economists forecast a seasonally adjusted annual growth rate of 6.4%.\nAccenture,Darden Restaurants, FedEx, and Nike hold conference calls to discuss quarterly results.\nThe Bank of Englandannounces its monetary-policy decision. The central bank is widely expected to keep its key interest rate at 0.1%.\nThe Census Bureaureleases the durable-goods report for May. The consensus call is for new orders of manufactured goods to rise 2.8% month over month to $253 billion. Excluding transportation, new orders are projected at 1%, matching the April data.\nFriday 6/25\nCarMax and Paychex report earnings.\nThe BEA reportspersonal income and consumption for May.

I’m right there with you, Karl.</p>\n<p>Working-class millennials have been denied the chance to build generational wealth over the course of our professional careers.

He added that many of his investments were typically “forced up to quite an unreasonable level and then, for the most part, collapse.”</p>\n<p>Marx’s trading stories are difficult to substantiate, but millennials’ love of meme stocks is very real. I’ve already made more this year from trading meme stocks and cryptocurrency than I have as a professional writer. I’ve come to look at the meme stock boom as millennials’ chance to finally build wealth. But if not, we’re content with making the investors largely responsible for our financial woes feel a bit of the pain they’ve inflicted on us. Short-sellers are losing their shirts to the tune of$4.5 billionon meme stocks so far.</p>\n<p>As a 34-year-old American, almost every generational stereotype applies to me. HuffPost’s Michael Hobbessummed upmillennials’ financial situation best in 2017: “My rent consumes nearly half my income, I haven’t had a steady job since Pluto was a planet and my savings are dwindling faster than the ice caps the baby boomers melted.”</p>\n<p>Perhaps because we’re the only American generation to live through two major recessions and two wars in our coming-up years, we’re the first generation to be financially worse off than our parents, despite beingbetter educatedon average. We paid for it, too. A year of college that cost $10,000 for boomers set millennials back more than $15,000 on average in inflation-adjusted dollars, according toBloomberg. Millennials of color, particularly Black millennials, have it worse. They graduated witheven more student debtthan their white classmates, arefar less likelyto be hired in white-collar professions, and their households earnjust 60%of what their white coworkers make.</p>\n<p>Millennials’ high-priced educations haven’t bought us much job security. A 2018 Gallup studycalledmillennials the “job-hopping generation.” Maybe, but not by choice. A 2019University of Chicago studyfound millennials actually long for a stable career. It should come as little surprise, then, that a generation plagued with job insecurity and mounting debt is leading the“baby bust.”The birth rate is at its lowest inthree decades. There may not be enough working-age Americans to care for the nation’s swelling senior population. Boomers effectively climbed the class ladder, then took a saw and cut off the rungs below them. (And they still ask us when we’ll give them grandchildren!)</p>\n<p>If all that doesn’t make meme stocks and cryptocurrency more appealing, at least it might help explain why some of us just don’t care any more about playing it safe. I’ll be the first to admit that investing in meme stocks isn’t a sustainable way to build wealth. A lot more of us will get hurt than get rich. But I’m not primarily investing to make money: I want the investors who crashed the economy and got bailed out in my senior year of college—thustorpedoingmy career earning potential—to feel at least a little bit of the hardship they put my generation through. And given thepredominantly millennialcomposition of /r/WallStreetBets, I know I’m not the only rage-driven investor.</p>\n<p>There’s plenty to be mad about. Like we saw withGameStop,workers organizing to make the stock market pay out in our favor results in strict blowback. After Redditors speculated GameStop shares through the roof in late January, mobile trading app Robinhood not only restricted trading, but evenreportedlysold investors’ GameStop shares without their consent. (Robinhooddeniesforced-selling occurred.) When it came to light that Robinhood had afinancial relationshipwith firms that help route its customers’ orders, it made a lot of newbie investors like me even more jaded about the markets.</p>\n<p>In March, when New York City opened movie theaters, I decided to buy AMC shares on a lark for $7 apiece. As of early June, my investment has appreciated in value by more than 550%. That could evaporate, but I’m taking a lesson from GameStop. Its stock is still trading at more than $250 per share despite starting the year under $20. I plan on continuing to hold my AMC shares in hopes the value will increase even more. When it’s finally time, I’ll sell half and re-invest my profits in cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p>When that happens, I’ll be far from the only millennial betting big on crypto. According to Business Insider, my generation ischiefly responsiblefor the sudden rise of cryptocurrency in 2021, in which both blue-chip digital currencies like Ethereum, as well as joke cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, are thriving. Ethereum’s price has gone from $730.97 per coin on Jan. 1 to a peak of over $4,000 in May. Dogecoin hasappreciatedby more than 21,000% since its inception as a meme in 2013. (I’m still kicking myself for selling my Dogecoin when it was trading for less than 10 cents, even though I still made thousands in profit). Millennials’ commitment to crypto is now forcing the giants to play along: In March,Morgan Stanleybecame thefirst bankto offer Bitcoin funds to its wealthy clients. And as if on cue, now that the workers have made a little money in the rigged casino, U.S. regulators are reportedly preparing a “crackdown” on cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p>Millennials went through childhood being told we had to work hard to have financial security. Then we were told we had to shackle ourselves with debt to get a college degree that would get us a good job. Then we were told that only a lucky few actually build wealth from their jobs and that to have true financial success, we should invest. And then when we invested, we were told we were doing it wrong. I get the message. Millennials aren’t meant to win. Financial security isn’t for us. So if we can make a few grand by speculating penny stocks to the moon and hurt a few smug hedge fund vultures in the process, we’ll settle for that.</p>\n<p><b>Corrections &amp; Amplifications</b>: Citadel Securities is a market-maker that provides services for Robinhood, not a hedge fund.

It should come as little surprise, then, that a generation plagued with job insecurity and mounting debt is leading the“baby bust.”The birth rate is at its lowest inthree decades.

The Apple Maven looked back at recent history to see how AAPL stock behaved around these events.\nApple’s WWDC is just around the corner. The Cupertino company will virtually host the 32nd Worldwide Developers Conference, starting June 7. Rumor has it that Apple will announce five new software updates, including iOS 15 and macOS 12. Also, new hardware could be unveiled, but these announcements tend to be rare during the developers’ conference.\nToday, the Apple Maven looks back at the most recent WWDC events to check how the stock behaved prior to and immediately after the conference.\nBefore we dive in…\nKeep in mind that the Apple Maven will cover the event via live blog, starting at 9:45 a.m. Cupertino time (PDT), on June 7. Tune in to follow our analysis of Apple's WWDC presentation!\nFigure 1: Apple's 2021 WWDC.\nWWDC 2017: Apple stock hiccups\nThe 2017 edition of WWDC took place between June 5 and June 9, 2017. At that time, three software updates were announced: the iOS 11, macOS High Sierra and tvOS. Also, hardware updates were unveiled, including the Mac, iPad and HomePod.\nLooking at the performance of Apple shares a week before until the end of the event, AAPL investors did not show much enthusiasm. The stock moved 3% lower, trading at that time at $37.\nFigure 2: AAPL 2017 chart.\nWWDC 2018: modest climb\nIn 2018, WWDC was held from June 4 to June 8. iOS 12 was announced, and so were software updates for Mac and Watch. This time, there were no hardware announcements.\nFigure 3: AAPL 2018 chart.\nFrom one week prior until the end of the event, WWDC 2018 may have brought optimism to investors, as shares climbed by 2%, trading at that time at nearly $48.\nWWDC 2019: the start of the ramp\nThe 2019 conference was held from June 3 to June 7. iOS 13 and other software updates were announced for the Mac, Watch, TV and iPad. Apple also launched hardware updates on Mac.\nApple stock behaved well, rising nearly 7% from a week before to the end of the event. In 2019, WWDC coincided with the beginning of a massive climb in AAPL share price that lasted until the end of the year.\nFigure 4: AAPL 2019 chart.\nWWDC 2020: riding the recovery\nFor the first time, the 2020 version of WWDC was held online because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference happened from June 22 to June 26. At that time, iOS 14 was announced, alongside iPad, Watch, TV and Mac software updates.The highlight of the event was the announced transition to custom ARM processors for Mac.\nThe stock was rebounding from the COVID-19 stock market crash at that time. Looking back at the period between a week prior to and the end of the event, shares were up 3%.\nFigure 5: AAPL 2020 chart.\nWhat history suggests\nIt is hard to predict how Apple stock will behave in the near future. However, looking back at history, we can draw a few conclusions about AAPL share price behavior around WWDC in the last 5 years.\nExcept for the 2017 conference, Apple caught an updraft around the WWDC weeks. Whether the performance is related to the event itself is a matter of interpretation.\nWhat to expect of WWDC 2021\nFor this year’s WWDC, Apple will likely release the usual software updates. For investors, possible updates on the products and services front would be most meaningful.\nA possible successor for the M1 chip, a 27-inc Mac, a new MacBook Pro, updates on AR and VR technology and even hints about the Apple Car would certainly be highlights. Any of these potential developments, even if unlikely to happen, could give an extra impulse for Apple shares in the short- and mid-terms.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":338,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109215395,"gmtCreate":1619699546217,"gmtModify":1704728199279,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Continue to grow as high as it can","listText":"Continue to grow as high as it can","text":"Continue to grow as high as it can","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109215395","repostId":"1162866378","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":189,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109232026,"gmtCreate":1619698722665,"gmtModify":1704728184141,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"S&amp;P 500 still look better","listText":"S&amp;P 500 still look better","text":"S&P 500 still look better","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109232026","repostId":"1104198438","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104198438","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619623222,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104198438?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104198438","media":"Yahoo","summary":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to","content":"<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>The famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019. However, Berkshire's own stock underperformed the broader market over that time period: The S&amp;P 500 rose 16.3% in 2020, without including reinvested dividends, while Berkshire's Class B shares increased 2.4%.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's stock performance in 2020 relative to the broader market, however, belies what has been, in aggregate, decades of outperformance for the Omaha, Nebraska-based company. Berkshire Hathaway's annual compounded gain between 1965 and 2020 was 20%, versus just 10.2% for the S&amp;P 500. And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&amp;P 500's 23,454%.</p>\n<p>On May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&amp;T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&amp;P 500 and S&amp;P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&amp;P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&amp;P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Charter Communications</b></p>\n<p>Charter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020.

However, Berkshire's own stock underperformed the broader market over that time period: The S&P 500 rose 16.3% in 2020, without including reinvested dividends, while Berkshire's Class B shares increased 2.4%.\nBerkshire's stock performance in 2020 relative to the broader market, however, belies what has been, in aggregate, decades of outperformance for the Omaha, Nebraska-based company. Berkshire Hathaway's annual compounded gain between 1965 and 2020 was 20%, versus just 10.2% for the S&P 500. And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&P 500's 23,454%.\nOn May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.\nHere's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*\nApple\nBuffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.\nBerkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.\nThat massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.\n\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,coming about because Applehas continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"\nThough Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.\nApple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.\nBank of America\nWhile Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).\nThe firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.\nBy the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.\nThe increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&T Bank Corp (MTB).\nWith interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&P 500 and S&P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.\nThe Coca-Cola Company\nBerkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.\nThis long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.\nWhile Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.\nAmerican Express\nBerkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.\nAs a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.\nWhile Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.\n\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"\nMore recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.\nVerizon Communications\nVerizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.\nBerkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.\nThe holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":219,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":158551212,"gmtCreate":1625158302736,"gmtModify":1703737473156,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/158551212","repostId":"1199212665","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199212665","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625146084,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1199212665?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-01 21:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Expensive Tech Stocks to Buy in the Next Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199212665","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Get ready to buy Snowflake and two other hot tech stocks if this frothy market collapses.","content":"<p>Many high-growth tech stocks have seen price pullbacks over the past few months, due to concerns about higher bond yields, inflation, and decelerating growth for companies that benefited from the pandemic.</p>\n<p>That sell-off created some buying opportunities -- but some of the sector's pricier names merely pulled back slightly, held onto their gains, or even rallied. That relative strength is admirable, but it's a bit frustrating for investors who don't want to pay the wrong price for the right company.</p>\n<p>That's why I'm making a shopping list of expensive tech stocks which I'd eagerly buy during the next market crash. Let's take a look at three of those companies:<b>Snowflake</b>(NYSE:SNOW),<b>Twilio</b>(NYSE:TWLO), and&nbsp;<b>CrowdStrike</b>(NASDAQ:CRWD).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fde232ce39d9cd52a01fd6ec018cae53\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>1. Snowflake</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake was one of the hottest tech IPOs of 2020, thanks to its jaw-dropping growth rates and big investments from&nbsp;<b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<b>salesforce.com</b>.</p>\n<p>Snowflake'scloud-baseddata warehouse pulls all of a company's data onto a single platform, where it can then be fed into third-party data visualization apps. Its service breaks down the silos between different departments and computing platforms, which makes it easier for large companies to make data-driven decisions.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's number of customers jumped 73% to 4,139 in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), including 186 of the Fortune 500 companies. Its revenue surged 124% to $592 million, as its net retention rate -- which gauges its year-over-year revenue growth per existing customer -- hit 165%.</p>\n<p>That growth continued in the first quarter of 2022. Its revenue rose 110% year over year to $228.9 million, its number of customers increased 67% to 4,532, and it achieved a net retention rate of 168%.</p>\n<p>But Snowflake isn't profitable yet. ItsGAAPnet loss widened from $348.5 million in fiscal 2020 to $539.1 million in fiscal 2021, and<i>more than doubled</i>from $93.6 million to $203.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. It's also unprofitable on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes its stock-based compensation expenses.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect Snowflake's revenue to rise 88% this year, with a narrower loss. However, its stock still trades at 65 times this year's sales -- which indicates there's still far too much growth baked into the stock. But if Snowflake gets cut in half in a crash, I'd considerstarting a big position.</p>\n<p><b>2. Twilio</b></p>\n<p>Twilio's cloud platform processes text messages, calls, and videos within apps. For example, it helps&nbsp;<b>Lyft</b>'s passengers contact their drivers, and&nbsp;<b>Airbnb</b>'s guests reach their hosts.</p>\n<p>In the past, developers built those tools from scratch, which was generally time-consuming, buggy, and difficult to scale. However, developers can now outsource those features to Twilio's cloud service by simply adding a few lines of code to their apps.</p>\n<p>Twilio's revenue rose 55% to $1.76 billion in 2020. Its net expansion rate, which is comparable to Snowflake's net retention rate, reached 137%. In the first quarter of 2021, its revenue jumped 62% year over year to $590 million as it integrated its recent purchase of the customer data firm Segment.</p>\n<p>Twilio remains unprofitable on a GAAP basis, but its non-GAAP net income rose 62% to $35.9 million in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, its non-GAAP net income rose another 15% to $9.6 million.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect its revenue to rise 44% this year, but for its non-GAAP earnings to dip into the red again amid higher investments and rising A2P (application-to-person) fees, which are now charged by carriers whenever an app accesses an SMS network.</p>\n<p>That near-term outlook doesn't look great for a stock that trades at nearly 30 times this year's sales. However, I still think Twilio has great growth potential, and I'd definitely buy its stock at a lower price.</p>\n<p><b>3. CrowdStrike</b></p>\n<p>CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company that differs from its industry peers in one major way. Most cybersecurity companies install on-site appliances to support their services, which can be expensive to maintain and difficult to scale as an organization expands. CrowdStrike eliminates those appliances by offering its end-to-end security platform as a cloud-based service.</p>\n<p>CrowdStrike's growth clearly reflects its disruptive potential.

That relative strength is admirable, but it's a bit frustrating for investors who don't want to pay the wrong price for the right company.\nThat's why I'm making a shopping list of expensive tech stocks which I'd eagerly buy during the next market crash. Let's take a look at three of those companies:Snowflake(NYSE:SNOW),Twilio(NYSE:TWLO), and CrowdStrike(NASDAQ:CRWD).\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n1. Snowflake\nSnowflake was one of the hottest tech IPOs of 2020, thanks to its jaw-dropping growth rates and big investments from Berkshire Hathaway and salesforce.com.\nSnowflake'scloud-baseddata warehouse pulls all of a company's data onto a single platform, where it can then be fed into third-party data visualization apps. Its service breaks down the silos between different departments and computing platforms, which makes it easier for large companies to make data-driven decisions.\nSnowflake's number of customers jumped 73% to 4,139 in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), including 186 of the Fortune 500 companies. Its revenue surged 124% to $592 million, as its net retention rate -- which gauges its year-over-year revenue growth per existing customer -- hit 165%.\nThat growth continued in the first quarter of 2022. Its revenue rose 110% year over year to $228.9 million, its number of customers increased 67% to 4,532, and it achieved a net retention rate of 168%.\nBut Snowflake isn't profitable yet. ItsGAAPnet loss widened from $348.5 million in fiscal 2020 to $539.1 million in fiscal 2021, andmore than doubledfrom $93.6 million to $203.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. It's also unprofitable on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes its stock-based compensation expenses.\nAnalysts expect Snowflake's revenue to rise 88% this year, with a narrower loss. However, its stock still trades at 65 times this year's sales -- which indicates there's still far too much growth baked into the stock. But if Snowflake gets cut in half in a crash, I'd considerstarting a big position.\n2. Twilio\nTwilio's cloud platform processes text messages, calls, and videos within apps. For example, it helps Lyft's passengers contact their drivers, and Airbnb's guests reach their hosts.\nIn the past, developers built those tools from scratch, which was generally time-consuming, buggy, and difficult to scale. However, developers can now outsource those features to Twilio's cloud service by simply adding a few lines of code to their apps.\nTwilio's revenue rose 55% to $1.76 billion in 2020. Its net expansion rate, which is comparable to Snowflake's net retention rate, reached 137%. In the first quarter of 2021, its revenue jumped 62% year over year to $590 million as it integrated its recent purchase of the customer data firm Segment.\nTwilio remains unprofitable on a GAAP basis, but its non-GAAP net income rose 62% to $35.9 million in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, its non-GAAP net income rose another 15% to $9.6 million.\nAnalysts expect its revenue to rise 44% this year, but for its non-GAAP earnings to dip into the red again amid higher investments and rising A2P (application-to-person) fees, which are now charged by carriers whenever an app accesses an SMS network.\nThat near-term outlook doesn't look great for a stock that trades at nearly 30 times this year's sales. However, I still think Twilio has great growth potential, and I'd definitely buy its stock at a lower price.\n3. CrowdStrike\nCrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company that differs from its industry peers in one major way. Most cybersecurity companies install on-site appliances to support their services, which can be expensive to maintain and difficult to scale as an organization expands. CrowdStrike eliminates those appliances by offering its end-to-end security platform as a cloud-based service.\nCrowdStrike's growth clearly reflects its disruptive potential. Its revenue rose 82% to $874.4 million in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), its number of subscription customers increased 82% to 9,896, and its net retention rate stayed above 120%.\nIn the first quarter of fiscal 2022, its revenue rose 70% year over year to $302.8 million, its subscriber base expanded 82% year over year to 11,420, and it kept its retention rate above 120%.\nCrowdStrike also turned profitable on a non-GAAP basis in 2021, with a net profit of $62.6 million. Its non-GAAP net income rose more than fivefold year over year to $23.3 million in the first quarter of 2022.\nThose numbers are impressive, but CrowdStrike still trades at about 350 times forward earnings and more than 40 times this year's sales. Therefore, this is another stock I won't buy unless the market crashes.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":233,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160808079,"gmtCreate":1623777340391,"gmtModify":1703819250335,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160808079","repostId":"1191245053","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191245053","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623762167,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191245053?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 21:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Quad-Witch Quandary: How Will Friday's $2 Trillion Gamma Expiration Impact Markets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191245053","media":"zerohedge","summary":"Last week, when discussing thebizarre summer doldrumsin the market which pushed the VIX to the lowest level since the onset of the covid pandemic, we said that this period of abnormal market quiet is likely to last until this Friday' quad-witch, when a massive amount of gamma and delta expire and are de-risked, in the process eliminating one of the natural downside stock buffers .So picking up on the topic of Friday' potentially market-moving opex, Goldman' in-house derivatives expert, Rocky Fis","content":"<p>Last week, when discussing thebizarre summer doldrumsin the market which pushed the VIX to the lowest level since the onset of the covid pandemic, we said that this period of abnormal market quiet is likely to last until this Friday' quad-witch, when a massive amount of gamma and delta expire and are de-risked, in the process eliminating one of the natural downside stock buffers (see \"4 Reasons Why The Market Doldrums End With Next Friday's Op-Ex\").</p>\n<p>So picking up on the topic of Friday' potentially market-moving opex, Goldman' in-house derivatives expert, Rocky Fishman, previews June’s upcoming expiration which he dubs as \"large - comparable to a typical quarterly.\" Specifically,<b>there are $1.8 trillion of SPX options expiring on Friday, in addition to $240 billion of SPY options and $200 billion of options on SPX and SPX E-mini futures.</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d1ece116794c7f6523250fd682450e3\" tg-width=\"959\" tg-height=\"765\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Yet while these totals are massive,<b>when adjusted for the index’s size the amount of expiring options within 10% of current spot is smaller than just about any quarterly over the past decade.</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/534b677774a92a59d4fe08f09359932b\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"298\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>It's worth noting that according to Goldman estimates that combos account<b>for 15-20% of SPX options,</b>so an adjusted open interest total would add up to $1.5tln, still much larger than total expiring single stock open interest ($775bln).

Recent growth in single stock option activity has been concentrated in low-share-price stocks, leaving a shar prise in contract-volume over the past two weeks that has not been matched by notional volume.

In fact,the percentage of SPX option volume happening in 3rd Friday expirations is at an all-time low,and is now smaller than the percentage happening in Monday and Wednesday expirations. One explanation for heightened ultra-short-dated volumes is the strong single stock volumes: and here an interest suggesting from Goldman - \"to the extent market makers are unable to cover the short single stock gamma generated by retail investors’ call buying, they may be actively trading long positions in strips of ultra-short-dated SPX index options to offset this gamma.\"\n\nWhy is this important? because if this trend is large enough, it directly contributes to low implied and realized correlation.Ironically, by ramping single name, \"most-shorted names\", retail investors are ushering a period of unorthodox calm across the rest of the market!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":229,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164034726,"gmtCreate":1624161071265,"gmtModify":1703829830314,"author":{"id":"3582194717778246","authorId":"3582194717778246","name":"股市英雄","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582194717778246","authorIdStr":"3582194717778246"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","text":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164034726","repostId":"161172523","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":161172523,"gmtCreate":1623914617659,"gmtModify":1703823383247,"author":{"id":"3493247054408315","authorId":"3493247054408315","name":"出没在交易圈的情报员","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f410ba1d5e642b32faa3d84b28820597","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3493247054408315","authorIdStr":"3493247054408315"},"themes":[],"title":"這次的美聯儲利率決議是鷹是鴿？黃金白銀會從此一蹶不振嗎？","htmlText":"美聯儲公佈最新的利率決議。宣佈維持基準利率在0%-0.25%區間不變，符合預期。點陣圖顯示，到2023年底將實現兩次加息。同時，美聯儲上調了2021年的經濟預期，並大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。FOMC決策公佈後，美股短線跳水，三大股指一度跌超1%；黃金白銀跳水，刷新一個月來的最低；美元指數大漲，上破91關口；10年期美債收益率升破1.58%關口。 聲明中，美聯儲沒有提及減少購債規模，但調高了超額存準金率（IOER）從0.1%調整至0.15%。表示將繼續每月增持至少800億美元的國債和至少400億美元的住房抵押貸款支持證券，直到委員會的充分就業和物價穩定目標取得實質性進展。 根據美聯儲週三發佈的經濟預測摘要，美聯儲略微調高了對2021年的經濟預期。美聯儲目前預計2021年實際國內生產總值（GDP）將增長7.0%，而3月份會議上的預測爲增長6.5%。 美聯儲還大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。美聯儲目前預計今年的通脹率將達到3.4%，高於此前預測的2.4%。 美聯儲FOMC 6月點陣圖顯示，18位官員中有13人支持在2023年底前至少加息一次，而3月爲7位；11位官員預計到2023年底至少加息兩次；7名委員預計在2022年開始加息。 對於這個提前加息的反應，黃金白銀，和美股股指期貨紛紛下跌，但隨後的鮑威爾的發言起到了安撫市場的作用。 美國聯邦公開市場委員會6月16日會議聲明全文 美聯儲致力於在這個充滿挑戰的時期使用全部工具來支持美國經濟，從而推動實現其充分就業和物價穩定的目標。 疫苗接種的進展已經降低了新型冠狀病毒在美國的傳播。伴隨着這一進展且有強大的政策支持，經濟活動和就業指標已經走強。受疫情不利影響最重的部門仍然疲弱，但已經表現出好轉。通貨膨脹率已經上升，主要反映了暫時性因素。整體金融狀況依然寬鬆，部分反映了支持經濟及促進信貸流向美國居民和企業的政策措施。 經濟發展路徑將在很大程度上","listText":"美聯儲公佈最新的利率決議。宣佈維持基準利率在0%-0.25%區間不變，符合預期。點陣圖顯示，到2023年底將實現兩次加息。同時，美聯儲上調了2021年的經濟預期，並大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。FOMC決策公佈後，美股短線跳水，三大股指一度跌超1%；黃金白銀跳水，刷新一個月來的最低；美元指數大漲，上破91關口；10年期美債收益率升破1.58%關口。 聲明中，美聯儲沒有提及減少購債規模，但調高了超額存準金率（IOER）從0.1%調整至0.15%。表示將繼續每月增持至少800億美元的國債和至少400億美元的住房抵押貸款支持證券，直到委員會的充分就業和物價穩定目標取得實質性進展。 根據美聯儲週三發佈的經濟預測摘要，美聯儲略微調高了對2021年的經濟預期。美聯儲目前預計2021年實際國內生產總值（GDP）將增長7.0%，而3月份會議上的預測爲增長6.5%。 美聯儲還大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。美聯儲目前預計今年的通脹率將達到3.4%，高於此前預測的2.4%。 美聯儲FOMC 6月點陣圖顯示，18位官員中有13人支持在2023年底前至少加息一次，而3月爲7位；11位官員預計到2023年底至少加息兩次；7名委員預計在2022年開始加息。 對於這個提前加息的反應，黃金白銀，和美股股指期貨紛紛下跌，但隨後的鮑威爾的發言起到了安撫市場的作用。 美國聯邦公開市場委員會6月16日會議聲明全文 美聯儲致力於在這個充滿挑戰的時期使用全部工具來支持美國經濟，從而推動實現其充分就業和物價穩定的目標。 疫苗接種的進展已經降低了新型冠狀病毒在美國的傳播。伴隨着這一進展且有強大的政策支持，經濟活動和就業指標已經走強。受疫情不利影響最重的部門仍然疲弱，但已經表現出好轉。通貨膨脹率已經上升，主要反映了暫時性因素。整體金融狀況依然寬鬆，部分反映了支持經濟及促進信貸流向美國居民和企業的政策措施。 經濟發展路徑將在很大程度上","text":"美聯儲公佈最新的利率決議。宣佈維持基準利率在0%-0.25%區間不變，符合預期。點陣圖顯示，到2023年底將實現兩次加息。同時，美聯儲上調了2021年的經濟預期，並大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。FOMC決策公佈後，美股短線跳水，三大股指一度跌超1%；黃金白銀跳水，刷新一個月來的最低；美元指數大漲，上破91關口；10年期美債收益率升破1.58%關口。 聲明中，美聯儲沒有提及減少購債規模，但調高了超額存準金率（IOER）從0.1%調整至0.15%。表示將繼續每月增持至少800億美元的國債和至少400億美元的住房抵押貸款支持證券，直到委員會的充分就業和物價穩定目標取得實質性進展。 根據美聯儲週三發佈的經濟預測摘要，美聯儲略微調高了對2021年的經濟預期。美聯儲目前預計2021年實際國內生產總值（GDP）將增長7.0%，而3月份會議上的預測爲增長6.5%。 美聯儲還大幅上調了今年的通脹預期。美聯儲目前預計今年的通脹率將達到3.4%，高於此前預測的2.4%。 美聯儲FOMC 6月點陣圖顯示，18位官員中有13人支持在2023年底前至少加息一次，而3月爲7位；11位官員預計到2023年底至少加息兩次；7名委員預計在2022年開始加息。 對於這個提前加息的反應，黃金白銀，和美股股指期貨紛紛下跌，但隨後的鮑威爾的發言起到了安撫市場的作用。 美國聯邦公開市場委員會6月16日會議聲明全文 美聯儲致力於在這個充滿挑戰的時期使用全部工具來支持美國經濟，從而推動實現其充分就業和物價穩定的目標。 疫苗接種的進展已經降低了新型冠狀病毒在美國的傳播。伴隨着這一進展且有強大的政策支持，經濟活動和就業指標已經走強。受疫情不利影響最重的部門仍然疲弱，但已經表現出好轉。通貨膨脹率已經上升，主要反映了暫時性因素。整體金融狀況依然寬鬆，部分反映了支持經濟及促進信貸流向美國居民和企業的政策措施。 經濟發展路徑將在很大程度上","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea013d5e81b2a302d1eabc3e0d608c7e","width":"774","height":"640"}],"top":1,"highlighted":2,"essential":2,"paper":2,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/161172523","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":1,"subType":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":178,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
