They did no such thing. While earnings topped expectations, third-quarter deliveries, sales, and profit margins all fell short of Street projections. Tesla shares slumped 6.7% following the release, putting them down 22% since the end of September, their second-worst start to a quarter since the first few weeks of 2016.</p><p>But for all the bad news, Tesla sees massive growth in 2023, as new plants in Germany and Texas continue ramping up. Tesla’s long-term bets on batteries and new vehicles should also help it lower costs and boost sales, though it remains to be seen whether growth comes at the expense of profits.</p><p>What’s more, Tesla still plans to deliver at least 450,000 vehicles during the fourth quarter, a massive number that, if achieved, would likely make the concerns disappear.

On the company’s conference call, CEO Elon Musk said that a vehicle platform supporting a $30,000 compact EV is now the primary focus of his development team. That’s for good reason—more than half of the cars sold in the U.S., excluding trucks, sell for under $36,000. “The new Tesla $30,000 compact is a big deal that investors may be missing,” says Future Fund Active ETF co-founder Gary Black. “It dramatically expands Tesla’s addressable market.”</p><p>Also broadening that market, to a much lesser extent, is the much-delayed Cybertruck, set to hit roads in 2023—some 3.5 years after it was launched.

Tesla’s energy-storage deployments hit 2,100 megawatt hours in the third quarter, up from 1,295 in the third quarter of 2021. And Tesla said it has tripled production of its larger-size battery cells, dubbed 4680s, though the introduction of those is still behind schedule. Significant 4680 output “was not as far off as I feared,” says Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, who notes that these batteries will help drive down product costs and improve vehicle performance.</p><p>Most important, while Tesla acknowledged that it won’t be able to deliver the 500,000 vehicles during the fourth quarter needed to hit 50% growth in 2022, guidance from CFO Zachary Kirkhorn implies that its fourth-quarter deliveries should top at least 450,000. That exceeds Wall Street projections and would be a quarterly record by some 100,000 units.</p><p>A number in that range would make 50% volume growth in 2023 look feasible. It would also signal that margins are set to improve because efficiency and production speeds in Texas and Germany are rising, boosting the potential profit on each vehicle produced. “Short term, investors may focus on [margins] and demand being a little harder,” wrote RBC analyst Joseph Spak in a report following earnings. “However, midterm, we aren’t too worried about demand [and] see [a] path back to 30% [gross margin].”</p><p>But first, Tesla has to get through the next week. Musk is likely to complete his purchase of Twitter (TWTR) before Oct. 28—if the U.S. government doesn’t block the deal—for $54.20 a share, something that would necessitate his selling $5 billion to $10 billion in Tesla stock to help fund the purchase.</p><p>Investors don’t want to buy Tesla shares ahead of the large sale, which perhaps explains some of the stock’s recent weakness. With the deal set to close, Musk’s sales should be done soon. If the stock fails to hold around $200 through that sale, the downside risk is immense, says 22V managing director John Roque. “A break of $200 will suggest risk to $100,” he says.</p><p>In all, a lot will be clearer in three months.

(Their forecasts don’t indicate the direction of the move, only the size.)Options traders are wagering on around a 5.4% move in Apple shares after its earnings this week, above the average move of around 3.3% after the past eight earnings releases, according to Cboe Global Markets data.They’re betting on a roughly 7% move for Alphabet after its earnings and through Friday. The stock has swung around 5.1% on average after the past eight releases.Expectations for Meta’s post-earnings move are even higher, with a roughly 13% post-earnings move forecast through Friday. The stock has swung around 9.2% on average after the past eight releases, according to Cboe.The big swings for tech stocks have continued last week.

The shipping container costs peaked above $10k during that time. It has been continuously declining since then. The Drewry’s composite World Container Index decreased by 8% alone last week to the current $3,688. Compare to its peak level about 1 year ago, the current price is almost 1/3 of the peak price. To further corroborate the picture, the second chart below shows the trade routes from Shanghai to other key port cities in the world (also based on Drewry’s data). As seen, the costs have also been declining, almost continuously, since 2021 September too. Take the trade routes between Shanghai and New York as an example. The costs have declined by almost ½ from around $15k a year ago to the current level of about $7k.</p><p>However, on the negative side, the impacts of China’s COVID lockdown may still take time to clear up, and new lockdowns are very possible given the recent resurgence in key Chinese cities. At the same time, gasoline prices remain near a historical high. According to YCharts data shown below, the national average price per gallon of unleaded gasoline is $3.91. It is about 23% below the peak of $5.1 reached recently, but still among the highest level since 1995 as seen.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/256180d98a9dd64ca2d83ff439a9c5e0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Drewry’s data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69b9d87580ac4907f0c4fbe68d328fc7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"386\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Drewry’s data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07ece3b4ce194cad87f1dbdef5474f88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Seeking Alpha data</p><p>AMZN profitability examined by Fama French</p><p>The factors above will keep their pressure on AMZN’s margins and profitability, which is not that impressive to start with as shown by a Fama French analysis below.

The first chart shows the OP factor of AMZN compared against all the other stocks in the market by percentile. As you can see, AMZN is not highly profitable by the OP metric (not a horrible one either). Its OP has oscillated the top 25% and the market median most of the time in recent years.

So it makes sense to write an article at a macroscopic level with the hope of gaining a panoramic view at the cost of losing some of the details.

So that you might be able to extend the methodology to other stocks of interest to yourself beyond AMZN. In particular, we will use the Fama French method in this article to analyze AMZN.Under this context, the main conclusions of this article are twofold:Its profitability is less competitive than other peers. And I see inflation and supply chain pressures keep challenging its operating environment in the second half of 2022. In particular, the cost of fuel should lead operating expenses to increase during the remainder of the year. At the same time, the picture for overseas container costs remains mixed.While at the same time, its valuation is still quite expensive, both in absolute terms and relative terms.

Stocks still generally closed out the week higher. The &#34;three stocks to avoid&#34; in my column last week that I thought were going to lose to the market -- <b>Apple</b>, <b>Conagra Brands</b>, and <b>Gold Fields</b> -- rose 1.3%%, 0.7%, and 5.9%, respectively, averaging out to a 2.6% uptick.</p><p>The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> experienced a 1.5% move lower, better than two of the three stocks but still short of the overall return. I was wrong. I have, though, been right in 32 of the past 51 weeks, or 63% of the time.</p><p>Now let&#39;s look at the week ahead. I see <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a></b>, <b>Blue Apron</b>, and, again, Gold Fields as stocks you might want to consider steering clear of this week. Let&#39;s go over my near-term concerns with all three investments.</p><h2><b>1. Walgreens Boots Alliance</b></h2><p>It isn&#39;t easy being a drugstore operator these days. New platforms are upending and undercutting the way we fulfill prescriptions. E-commerce and third-party delivery apps are eating away at the need to drive to a drugstore for stocked essentials. It&#39;s against this grim backdrop that Walgreens Boots Alliance will step up to deliver financial results this week for the quarter that ended in August.</p><p>On the surface it may seem insane to bet against Walgreens Boots Alliance at this point. The stock hit a new 10-year low on Friday, and it&#39;s now trading for just five times trailing earnings. The stock is yielding a record high of 6.2%. This could make it a magnet for income-chasing value investors, but you may want to wait until it announces its quarterly results this week. Analysts see revenue and earnings per share declining 6% and 34%, respectively.</p><p>Analysts see revenue recovering next year, but Wall Street&#39;s eyeing just 1% growth. The bottom line is expected to keep shrinking, and it&#39;s easy to see why. This is a highly leveraged company. Having more than $38 billion in debt is a bad look heading into a time where refinancing rates are skyrocketing. Walgreens Boots Alliance may seem like a smart idea at five times trailing earnings, but would you say the same if I told you that it&#39;s fetching seven times forward earnings? The fundamentals are going to the wrong way.</p><h2><b>2. Blue Apron</b></h2><p>One of last week&#39;s biggest losers was Blue Apron. The pioneer of home-delivered meal kits shed more than half of its value, down 56% after announcing a stock offering. You may not think announcing a modest $15 million at-the-market equity offering would result in the shedding of more than $100 million in market cap, but think about it. If the news sank the stock and Blue Apron went on with the offering anyway, it&#39;s a sign of how desperate it has become for liquidity.</p><p>There&#39;s a lot going wrong here. Growth is a missing ingredient, as revenue has failed to top a 2% year-over-year gain in each of the last four years. Losses are mounting, and Blue Apron has posted a larger deficit than analysts were expecting in at least the last four quarters. With too many competitors promoting aggressively to win their way into your kitchen, this is not going to be moneymaker for investors in the near term.</p><h2><b>3. Gold Fields</b></h2><p>I went with Gold Fields last week because I felt gold miners would slip if the market bounced back in October. I got the second part right. Stocks did bounce back. Unfortunately for this particular call, gold prices moved even higher. It also only helped Gold Fields that it would schedule a shareholder meeting to vote on a pending deal for a Canadian gold miner that was initially valued at $6.7 billion.</p><p>Gold isn&#39;t an inverse market fund. It may be a flight to safety when there&#39;s turmoil, but the shiny previous metal has still lost value this year. I still think investors will rotate out of gold if this early October rally continues into the new trading week.</p><p>It&#39;s going to be a bumpy road for some of these investments. If you&#39;re looking for safe stocks, you aren&#39;t likely to find them in Walgreens, Blue Apron, and Gold Fields this week.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Stocks to Avoid This Week</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\">\n3 Stocks to Avoid This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-11 23:19 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/10/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>October got off to an encouraging start, but it didn't take long for the markets to start selling off.

By subtracting the cost of the option, we can see the break-even price (basically where the S&amp;P 500 needs to be in order for an investor not to lose money). The most interesting aspect is the &#34;downside protection&#34; column, which gives us a sense of how much of the down move is hedged via put purchases.</p><p>We can see that given high implied volatility, the December puts only offer a 49% downside protection (i.e. if you bought the December puts now and the S&amp;P 500 went to 3,300 on expiry you would only make 49% on your option) while the front ended one in October gives an investor a 74% coverage.</p><h3>Put Mark-to-Market Volatility</h3><p>Let us also have a look at the November 18 360 strike puts and get a sense of how the mark-to-market would look like (the analysis is run utilizing a binomial options pricing methodology):</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1be01e96767b5cf22eb897dd501e7f59\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"409\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Table 2 - MtM Volatility (Author)</p><p>In the tables above we took the current pricing on the Nov 18 360 strike SPY put and ran several price and maturity simulations to get a sense of how much protection the put offers.

For example, if the S&amp;P 500 moves to 3,300 by the end of October, then the put option offers a 183% pay-off (i.e. the premium moves from 10.8 to 30.7, which results in a gain of 19.87 per contract).

Hence, the portfolio loss would not be entirely covered, only 64% of the downside move. The reason for this coverage is the expensive options pricing.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>The S&amp;P 500 is on a down-trend, with many analysts expecting ultimate pricing in the low 3,000s. The index is experiencing both a P/E de-rating as well as a re-set on the earnings forecast. Current market pricing makes puts expensive, with 1- and 3-months puts currently priced to offer only 74% and 49% downside protection respectively. A retail investor buying puts at current levels needs an exponential gap-down (above -6%) in the next 40 days in order to be significantly profitable on the options, with the caveat that the options will only partially protect the investor&#39;s portfolios. Inverse ETFs are also an alternative in the current environment, but the pay-off profile is significantly different, with the losses uncapped if the market rallies.</p></body></html>","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>SPY: Is It Worth It To Buy Puts Now?</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\">\nSPY: Is It Worth It To Buy Puts Now?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-05 13:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544590-spy-worth-buy-puts-now><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe bear market in the S&P 500 continues.Volatility remains elevated as investors scramble to hedge their portfolios.The herd mentality is in full display with the past weeks having seen record...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544590-spy-worth-buy-puts-now\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"标普500ETF"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544590-spy-worth-buy-puts-now","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1138224911","content_text":"SummaryThe bear market in the S&P 500 continues.Volatility remains elevated as investors scramble to hedge their portfolios.The herd mentality is in full display with the past weeks having seen record amount of put purchases.We explore in this article the payoff profiles of certain put options on the S&P 500 and alternatives.ThesisThe bear market in the S&P 500 (NYSEARCA:SPY) continues unabated, even though we are in the midst of another bear market rally. Weaker than expected US ISM Manufacturing (50.9 vs. 52.0 expected) and the U-turn in UK fiscal policy have triggered the latest rally, in a classic example of bad news is good news. Ultimately, the market will go towards fair value, as defined by its P/E ratio.

That should move the Index to the low 3000s levels.If an investor is in agreement that we are heading lower, then there are a couple of alternatives available:1) Liquidate all holdings and stay only in cash (it is yielding over 3% now, hence the new moniker TARA)2) Hedge the portfolio via inverse ETFs3) Buy putsInvestors are well aware of the current market dynamics with put buying at historic record levels:The upper part of the graph shows the amount spent of buying puts - please notice the historic spike up in the graph, while the lower part of the graph is premium spent on calls.

At 23 times trailing earnings and next year&#39;s estimates, and at more than 200 times the free cash flow it produces, Netflix isn&#39;t a cheap stock for a company whose business is in serious flux. The streaming giant still needs to adjust to the massive growth of competition it now faces, and that could take time to finally figure out.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Are Netflix Investors Facing a Streaming Apocalypse?</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\">\nAre Netflix Investors Facing a Streaming Apocalypse?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-05 14:57 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/04/is-netflix-facing-a-massive-subscriber-collapse/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Netflix  could be staring down a subscriber collapse.

Disney, for example, is considering folding Hulu into Disney+ when it finally acquires Comcast's stake in 2024 (if an acquisition doesn't occur sooner), and Warner Bros may fold Discovery+ into HBO Max.The rise of low-cost services, though, has forced Netflix to introduce an ad-supported subscription tier at a relative discount beginning Nov. 1. While users who might otherwise cancel because of high prices could end up trading down, it might also result in Netflix cannibalizing its higher subscription tiers.Netflix is also cracking down on account-sharing and is beginning to charge for households using an account outside of the primary residence, forcing people to subscribe who previously didn't. However Cowen & Co. estimates Netflix could generate $1.6 billion in incremental revenue by eliminating account sharing globally.Take a wait-and-see approachNetflix is at a crossroads, and while many are forecasting it could lose several million subscribers this year, it is nowhere near the nuclear-winter levels the consumer survey indicates. Moreover, the other estimates see 2022 just being an anomaly, with subscriber tallies expected to begin growing again in 2023.Investors might still want to use caution. At 23 times trailing earnings and next year's estimates, and at more than 200 times the free cash flow it produces, Netflix isn't a cheap stock for a company whose business is in serious flux. The streaming giant still needs to adjust to the massive growth of competition it now faces, and that could take time to finally figure out.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":161,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9915380055,"gmtCreate":1664956957877,"gmtModify":1676537535725,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9915380055","repostId":"2273327868","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":305,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9917682636,"gmtCreate":1665500024625,"gmtModify":1676537617315,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9917682636","repostId":"2274656821","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2274656821","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1665501541,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2274656821?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-11 23:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks to Avoid This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2274656821","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These investments seem pretty vulnerable right now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>October got off to an encouraging start, but it didn&#39;t take long for the markets to start selling off. Stocks still generally closed out the week higher. The &#34;three stocks to avoid&#34; in my column last week that I thought were going to lose to the market -- <b>Apple</b>, <b>Conagra Brands</b>, and <b>Gold Fields</b> -- rose 1.3%%, 0.7%, and 5.9%, respectively, averaging out to a 2.6% uptick.</p><p>The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> experienced a 1.5% move lower, better than two of the three stocks but still short of the overall return. I was wrong. I have, though, been right in 32 of the past 51 weeks, or 63% of the time.</p><p>Now let&#39;s look at the week ahead. I see <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a></b>, <b>Blue Apron</b>, and, again, Gold Fields as stocks you might want to consider steering clear of this week. Let&#39;s go over my near-term concerns with all three investments.</p><h2><b>1. Walgreens Boots Alliance</b></h2><p>It isn&#39;t easy being a drugstore operator these days. New platforms are upending and undercutting the way we fulfill prescriptions. E-commerce and third-party delivery apps are eating away at the need to drive to a drugstore for stocked essentials. It&#39;s against this grim backdrop that Walgreens Boots Alliance will step up to deliver financial results this week for the quarter that ended in August.</p><p>On the surface it may seem insane to bet against Walgreens Boots Alliance at this point. The stock hit a new 10-year low on Friday, and it&#39;s now trading for just five times trailing earnings. The stock is yielding a record high of 6.2%. This could make it a magnet for income-chasing value investors, but you may want to wait until it announces its quarterly results this week. Analysts see revenue and earnings per share declining 6% and 34%, respectively.</p><p>Analysts see revenue recovering next year, but Wall Street&#39;s eyeing just 1% growth. The bottom line is expected to keep shrinking, and it&#39;s easy to see why. This is a highly leveraged company. Having more than $38 billion in debt is a bad look heading into a time where refinancing rates are skyrocketing. Walgreens Boots Alliance may seem like a smart idea at five times trailing earnings, but would you say the same if I told you that it&#39;s fetching seven times forward earnings? The fundamentals are going to the wrong way.</p><h2><b>2. Blue Apron</b></h2><p>One of last week&#39;s biggest losers was Blue Apron. The pioneer of home-delivered meal kits shed more than half of its value, down 56% after announcing a stock offering. You may not think announcing a modest $15 million at-the-market equity offering would result in the shedding of more than $100 million in market cap, but think about it. If the news sank the stock and Blue Apron went on with the offering anyway, it&#39;s a sign of how desperate it has become for liquidity.</p><p>There&#39;s a lot going wrong here. Growth is a missing ingredient, as revenue has failed to top a 2% year-over-year gain in each of the last four years. Losses are mounting, and Blue Apron has posted a larger deficit than analysts were expecting in at least the last four quarters. With too many competitors promoting aggressively to win their way into your kitchen, this is not going to be moneymaker for investors in the near term.</p><h2><b>3. Gold Fields</b></h2><p>I went with Gold Fields last week because I felt gold miners would slip if the market bounced back in October. I got the second part right. Stocks did bounce back. Unfortunately for this particular call, gold prices moved even higher. It also only helped Gold Fields that it would schedule a shareholder meeting to vote on a pending deal for a Canadian gold miner that was initially valued at $6.7 billion.</p><p>Gold isn&#39;t an inverse market fund. It may be a flight to safety when there&#39;s turmoil, but the shiny previous metal has still lost value this year. I still think investors will rotate out of gold if this early October rally continues into the new trading week.</p><p>It&#39;s going to be a bumpy road for some of these investments. If you&#39;re looking for safe stocks, you aren&#39;t likely to find them in Walgreens, Blue Apron, and Gold Fields this week.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Stocks to Avoid This Week</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\">\n3 Stocks to Avoid This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-11 23:19 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/10/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>October got off to an encouraging start, but it didn't take long for the markets to start selling off.

However, you can nearly throw a rock in any direction and find an economist who thinks a recession is probably on the way.</p><p>For example, Johns Hopkins economics professor Steve Hanke stated a month ago that he believes there&#39;s at least an 80% chance of a recession. Non-profit research group The Conference Board recently pegged the probability at 96%. The latest Bloomberg economic model projects a 100% chance of a recession by October 2023.</p><p>These forecasts don&#39;t guarantee that a recession is coming. But it&#39;s possible that the current bear market will continue for a while longer. That doesn&#39;t mean that every stock will be a big loser, though. Which stocks are most likely to thrive in a recession? Here&#39;s what history shows.</p><h2>Some bad news</h2><p>The SPDR Select Sector exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are good proxies for gauging how different sectors perform during recessions. One primary downside of using them is that most of these ETFs have only been around since the late 1990s. However, the U.S. has experienced three recessions during that period, so the SPDR Select Sector ETFs should be able to help in determining which stocks historically thrive in a recession.</p><p>I&#39;ve got some bad news, though. None of the SPDR Select Sector ETFs performed well in all three recessions that occurred over the past 25 years.</p><p>The <b>Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund</b> held up well during the recession of 2001. However, it still slid a little. The <b>Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF</b> performed similarly during the first recession of this century. (The shaded area in the charts below indicates the period when the U.S. economy was in recession.)</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/853673b3d7036f65675cb75460619a54\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>XLP data by YCharts</span></p><p>However, both of these ETFs plunged during the Great Recession that began in late 2007 and went through mid-2009. So did every other sector ETF -- including (perhaps surprisingly) the <b>Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund</b>.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02a98d572e35a8953471c6c7828d2061\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>XLP data by YCharts</span></p><p>All of the sector ETFs also tanked during the brief coronavirus-fueled recession of 2020. However, the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund didn&#39;t fall nearly as much as the others did.</p><h2>Looking for exceptions</h2><p>The cold, hard truth is that no category of stocks thrives in all recessions. But it&#39;s clear from examining the past that consumer staples stocks tend to perform better than most. Your best bet, though, is to look for exceptions. I&#39;m referring to stocks that have factors working to their advantage so much that investors want to buy them even when the overall economy stinks.</p><p><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson</b> stood out as this kind of stock during the recession of 2001. The healthcare giant continued to deliver revenue and earnings growth throughout the period. It completed the $10.5 billion acquisition of ALZA Corporation. The blue-chip stock was also viewed as a safe haven for investors worried about the dot-com bubble bursting.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0f6c443d5d4b1ad723b683769a5fdc5f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>JNJ data by YCharts</span></p><p><b>Walmart</b> performed exceptionally well during the Great Recession, especially considering how most stocks plunged. Investors realized that the serious economic downturn would mean that consumers would have to tighten their purse strings. That worked to the advantage of the big discount retailer.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/55b80d8bd9dda516f36e873284c8ef2e\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>WMT data by YCharts</span></p><p><b>Moderna</b>&#39;s share price skyrocketed during the quick recession of 2020. That&#39;s not surprising. The company was one of the early leaders in developing coronavirus vaccines. Moderna was a natural choice for investors to flock to during the uncertain times at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0182e88d0371524d986b304119608277\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>MRNA data by YCharts</span></p><h2>Likely outliers in the next recession</h2><p>Which stocks might be outliers in the next recession, assuming it isn&#39;t too far off? I think we can learn from history.</p><p>Walmart could again defy gravity if the U.S. economy enters into a recession. My view is that another discount retailer, <b>Dollar General</b>, should do so as well.</p><p>Dollar General is outperforming Walmart so far this year. The company continues to build new stores. It&#39;s also expanding its frozen and refrigerated goods offerings. Dollar General should benefit as consumers increasingly try to stretch their dollars.</p><p>Just as Johnson &amp; Johnson and Moderna performed well during two previous recessions, I suspect another drug stock will do so during the next recession -- <b>Vertex Pharmaceuticals</b>. Vertex&#39;s revenue and earnings will almost certainly grow robustly even amid an economic downturn.</p><p>The big biotech also has a pipeline with multiple potential blockbusters likely on the way.

However, you can nearly throw a rock in any direction and find an economist who thinks a recession is probably on the way.For example, Johns Hopkins economics professor Steve Hanke stated a month ago that he believes there's at least an 80% chance of a recession. Non-profit research group The Conference Board recently pegged the probability at 96%. The latest Bloomberg economic model projects a 100% chance of a recession by October 2023.These forecasts don't guarantee that a recession is coming. But it's possible that the current bear market will continue for a while longer. That doesn't mean that every stock will be a big loser, though. Which stocks are most likely to thrive in a recession? Here's what history shows.Some bad newsThe SPDR Select Sector exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are good proxies for gauging how different sectors perform during recessions. One primary downside of using them is that most of these ETFs have only been around since the late 1990s. However, the U.S. has experienced three recessions during that period, so the SPDR Select Sector ETFs should be able to help in determining which stocks historically thrive in a recession.I've got some bad news, though. None of the SPDR Select Sector ETFs performed well in all three recessions that occurred over the past 25 years.The Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund held up well during the recession of 2001. However, it still slid a little. The Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF performed similarly during the first recession of this century. (The shaded area in the charts below indicates the period when the U.S. economy was in recession.)XLP data by YChartsHowever, both of these ETFs plunged during the Great Recession that began in late 2007 and went through mid-2009. So did every other sector ETF -- including (perhaps surprisingly) the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund.XLP data by YChartsAll of the sector ETFs also tanked during the brief coronavirus-fueled recession of 2020. However, the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund didn't fall nearly as much as the others did.Looking for exceptionsThe cold, hard truth is that no category of stocks thrives in all recessions. But it's clear from examining the past that consumer staples stocks tend to perform better than most. Your best bet, though, is to look for exceptions. I'm referring to stocks that have factors working to their advantage so much that investors want to buy them even when the overall economy stinks.Johnson & Johnson stood out as this kind of stock during the recession of 2001. The healthcare giant continued to deliver revenue and earnings growth throughout the period. It completed the $10.5 billion acquisition of ALZA Corporation. The blue-chip stock was also viewed as a safe haven for investors worried about the dot-com bubble bursting.JNJ data by YChartsWalmart performed exceptionally well during the Great Recession, especially considering how most stocks plunged. Investors realized that the serious economic downturn would mean that consumers would have to tighten their purse strings. That worked to the advantage of the big discount retailer.WMT data by YChartsModerna's share price skyrocketed during the quick recession of 2020. That's not surprising. The company was one of the early leaders in developing coronavirus vaccines. Moderna was a natural choice for investors to flock to during the uncertain times at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.MRNA data by YChartsLikely outliers in the next recessionWhich stocks might be outliers in the next recession, assuming it isn't too far off? I think we can learn from history.Walmart could again defy gravity if the U.S. economy enters into a recession. My view is that another discount retailer, Dollar General, should do so as well.Dollar General is outperforming Walmart so far this year. The company continues to build new stores. It's also expanding its frozen and refrigerated goods offerings. Dollar General should benefit as consumers increasingly try to stretch their dollars.Just as Johnson & Johnson and Moderna performed well during two previous recessions, I suspect another drug stock will do so during the next recession -- Vertex Pharmaceuticals. Vertex's revenue and earnings will almost certainly grow robustly even amid an economic downturn.The big biotech also has a pipeline with multiple potential blockbusters likely on the way. Vertex expects to file for regulatory approvals for one of them (gene-editing therapy exa-cel) before year-end. With fears of a recession increasing, I think that Vertex is arguably the best stock to buy right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":508,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9988025121,"gmtCreate":1666627497263,"gmtModify":1676537780727,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Agree thc","listText":"Agree thc","text":"Agree thc","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9988025121","repostId":"1121547995","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":562,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9917872264,"gmtCreate":1665490013158,"gmtModify":1676537615195,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thx","listText":"Thx","text":"Thx","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9917872264","repostId":"1144731428","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9915317550,"gmtCreate":1664956913770,"gmtModify":1676537535717,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thx","listText":"Thx","text":"Thx","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9915317550","repostId":"2272834099","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2272834099","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1664983956,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2272834099?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-05 23:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Warren Buffett Stocks Most Likely to Soar in Q4","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2272834099","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"There's no guarantee these Buffett stocks will take off.

Those folks who don&#39;t have a stomach for heightened volatility or risk can buy safe stocks to weather the short-term storm and steadily grow their wealth over time. What follows are three extremely safe stocks with long histories of profitability, and they can double your money, including dividends paid, by 2028.</p><h2>AT&amp;T</h2><p>The first exceptionally safe stock that has the potential to double your money, including dividends paid, by 2028 is telecom giant <b>AT&amp;T</b>. As of this past weekend, it was yielding 6.49%. Over the next six years, this would equate to a 39% return from dividends alone.</p><p>In terms of volatility, AT&amp;T has a beta of 0.65. This means it&#39;s about 65% as volatile as the benchmark S&amp;P 500. For instance, if the S&amp;P 500 fell 1%, we would expect the stock to decline by just 0.65%. This lack of volatility is a reflection of wireless services and smartphones evolving into basic necessities over the past two decades. No matter how poorly the U.S. economy or stock markets perform, churn rates for AT&amp;T&#39;s wireless services remain relatively low.</p><p>Although AT&amp;T&#39;s faster-growth days are now firmly in the rearview mirror, it does have two catalysts that can move the needle in the years to come. Without question, its biggest catalyst is the 5G revolution. It&#39;s been roughly a decade since wireless download speeds were significantly improved. While it will cost a pretty penny for AT&amp;T to upgrade its infrastructure, the expectation is for consumers and businesses to respond by using more data, which happens to be where the company generates its beefiest margins.</p><p>To add to this point, AT&amp;T&#39;s third-quarter results featured 5.6% revenue growth in wireless service over the prior-year period. That&#39;s the fastest rate of wireless growth for the company in over a decade, which provides tangible evidence that its investments in 5G infrastructure are paying off.</p><p>The other notable driver for AT&amp;T is the spinoff of WarnerMedia in April, which subsequently merged with Discovery to create <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBD\">Warner Bros. Discovery</a></b>. When the deal closed, AT&amp;T received $40.4 billion in cash, as well as the retention of select debt by Warner Bros. Discovery. The point being that AT&amp;T&#39;s debt-burdened balance sheet gained meaningful flexibility following this spinoff, which means its market-topping dividend should continue being paid out.</p><h2>Visa</h2><p>Whereas AT&amp;T&#39;s dividend should play a key role in helping investors possibly double their money by 2028, payment processor <b>Visa</b>&#39;s dividend yield of 0.79% is merely icing on the cake. Share price appreciation should do virtually all of the heavy lifting over the next six years.</p><p>One of the primary reasons Visa&#39;s volatility clocks in below that of the S&amp;P 500 is its predictable cyclical nature. Cyclical stocks tend to ebb and flow with the U.S. economy. Even though downturns are an inevitable part of the economic cycle, they don&#39;t last very long. So Visa&#39;s outperformance reflects that the U.S. and global economies spend a considerably longer amount of time expanding than contracting.</p><p>Something else working in Visa&#39;s favor is its domestic and international opportunities. Within the U.S., it held the lion&#39;s share of credit card network purchase volume (54%), as of 2020. In fact, it was the only one of the four major credit card networks in the U.S. to demonstrably expand its market share following the Great Recession.</p><p>As for its international prowess, Visa can benefit from the fact that most global transactions are still being conducted with cash. It will likely take decades to penetrate some of the most underbanked regions of the globe, which is a fancy way of saying that Visa has decades left to sustain a double-digit growth runway.</p><p>Also, as I&#39;ve previously pointed out, Visa&#39;s conservative operating approach is a positive. Its purposeful avoidance of lending means it isn&#39;t exposed to potential loan losses when recessions arise. By strictly focusing on payment processing, Visa is ensuring that it bounces back from recessions faster than its peers, as well as maintaining a profit margin above 50%.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3fb93210832b899df3daa20d3335535d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p><h2>Berkshire Hathaway</h2><p>The third extremely safe stock that can double your money by 2028 is none other than conglomerate <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>. Although Berkshire doesn&#39;t pay a dividend, it continues the theme of the companies on this list offering lower volatility than the S&amp;P 500.</p><p>While Berkshire Hathaway might not be a household name, its billionaire leader certainly is. Warren Buffett has been CEO of Berkshire since 1965, and in that time has overseen the creation of more than $620 billion in shareholder value. Perhaps more important, he&#39;s delivered an average annual return of 20.1% for his shareholders. Even though past performance is no indication of future results, a 57-year track record is sufficient evidence that Buffett has a knack for outperforming the broader market.</p><p>One of the most overlooked reasons for Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s success is its investment portfolio, which is packed with dividend stocks. Companies that pay a regular dividend are usually profitable, and history shows they tend to vastly outperform stocks that don&#39;t pay a dividend. Over the coming 12 months, Buffett&#39;s company is on pace to collect more than $6 billion in dividend income.</p><p>Warren Buffett happens to be a big fan of leaning on cyclical business as well. Rather than trying to foolishly time when a recession will occur, the Oracle of Omaha has packed his company&#39;s portfolio with businesses that&#39;ll thrive from the natural expansion of the U.S. and global economies over time, such as bank stocks.</p><p>Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s capital-return program is another reason for investors to be excited. Though Berkshire doesn&#39;t pay a dividend, there isn&#39;t a stock Buffett and his right-hand man Charlie Munger love buying more than shares of their own company. Over a four-year stretch, Buffett and Munger have repurchased $62.1 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway Class A and Class B stock.</p><p>For businesses with steady or growing net income, stock repurchases can have a positive impact on earnings per share. This can make an already reasonably priced stock like Berkshire Hathaway appear all the more attractive.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Extremely Safe Stocks That Can Double Your Money by 2028</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\">\n3 Extremely Safe Stocks That Can Double Your Money by 2028\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-27 17:24 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/26/3-extremely-safe-stocks-double-your-money-by-2028/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>It's been quite some time since investors have contended with such a volatile year on Wall Street.

Nevertheless, Tesla shares this week seem headed for their longest losing streak since March 2021.</p><p>We think that Tesla&#39;s new humanoid robot, in addition to developments in their real world AI, computing and other Tesla products currently represent a very attractive buying opportunity for long-term holders of the stock, and we expect it to outperform broad benchmarks even in times of macroeconomic distress.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/194dff43d71f26606d51256c830a4945\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Bumble C</p><p>As Tesla&#39;s Humanoid Robot is still under development, they were able to show their prototype &#34;Bumble C,&#34; which is to become a low-cost and mass-producible Optimus robot.</p><p>The initial release and demonstration of the product was followed by a variety ofreactions from expertsin the robotics industry and the investment community. Interestingly, Tesla received high praise from experts from the robotics industry, while there were many skeptics from the investment community.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6d0c0a5d8694dfa2f56d1cf75ee8831\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla AI Day</p><p>We want to highlight the key differences between what makes Tesla&#39;s bot so different from competitors such as Boston Dynamics, Honda and others:</p><ul><li>Optimus is intended for mass production (i.e., thousands or millions of units).</li><li>Project progress was made in just 6 to 8 months, compared with decades at competitors.</li><li>The robot is expected to be affordable, costing only US$20K to manufacture, or &#34;significantly less expensive than an EV.&#34;</li><li>Tesla has a formidable AI advantage in the real world thanks to data collection efforts such as their FSD beta.</li><li>It is built for efficiency, and optimized for defined tasks rather than optimized for aesthetics.</li></ul><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/48961fc406e0289960175b055105f015\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla AI Day</p><p>Critics who compared the Optimus prototype to Boston Dynamics, for example, should note that Boston Dynamics has been aroundfor 30 years, and their humanoid robot Atlas has been in development for nearly 10 years, rather than 6 to 8 months. Boston Dynamics has also shown no intention of mass-producing their Atlas Robot, or at what price. However, their smaller robot dog, Spot, is currently available at a price ofabout US$75,000. At a price of US$20,000, not only small businesses but also households should be able to afford an Optimus robot.</p><p>The same goes for other concepts, such asHonda&#39;s Asimorobot, a humanoid robot that has been in development since the 1980s and was officially created in the year 2000. Although initially intended for mass development, Honda stopped producing Asimo robots to &#34;focus on more practical applications.&#34; None were actually sold, but Hondagave a pseudo quote of as much as $2.5 million per robot.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s robot may not have the same dexterity and human-like character because it is not primarily intended to perform tasks such as parkour or dancing. We also believe that Tesla, thanks to its real-world data collection, for example with FSD Beta, and its fleet ofmore than 3 million cars, has a head start on developing a functional AI-driven humanoid robot.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5780d19805b143394d1cccb72a98ac6d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla AI Day</p><p>It is also important to note that this event was not aimed at investors, as thesole purpose was to recruit the best possible talent for Tesla and their Optimus project. We believe that recruiting the most talented engineers and employees at Tesla is a huge advantage for innovation within the company and to stay ahead of the competition.</p><p>For example, a recent survey of 49,197 American studentsby Universum, which specializes in employer branding, found that Tesla and SpaceX were named as their ideal employers. The combination of the ability to attract the best team of engineers, expertise in scaling and mass production, combined with a strong lead in data collection and years of expertise in real-world AI development, leads us to consider that Tesla is poised to become the leading company in humanoid robotics.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fbe300b4c6989fade2f3522cfee49eb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla AI Day</p><p>The Cost Savings</p><p>One of the main reasons Tesla is likely to make robots for a price tag of only US$20K is probably their ability to scale, vertically integrate and simplify concepts by leveraging their advances in automotive technology. Remember, Tesla specializes in &#34;building the machine that builds the machine,&#34; like their Gigafactories.</p><p>For example,in their Q2 report, they showed that the number of robots in their gigafactory body shop could be reduced by 70% compared to their first Model 3 body shop through large castings and parts consolidation. They are still on a quest for simplification with each new product and factory. Another example could be Tesla, which reportedlyremoved the ultrasonic sensorson Model 3 and Model Y vehicles because they are more confident in their AI and full self-driving capabilities.</p><p>Vertical integration in innovation is always an important concept because the unit price of certain components can drop significantly as a result ofWright&#39;s Law. For example, according to Wright&#39;s law, the cost of batteries drops 28% for every cumulative doubling of the number of units produced. That concept could be accelerated, as some of the robots&#39; components have similarities to what is used in EVs, and could be vertically integrated. The Optimus robots could also be used in Tesla&#39;s own production chain, producing more cars and robots.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb9b7b69eca0bcc3d547dcee35162406\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla AI Day</p><p>There is still some debate whether Tesla will sell the robots at a fixed price, lease them, or possibly require an annual subscription for the robot and its software. If the Optimus could be produced for US$20K, it could represent a significant cost savings for employers that completely exceeds the output and productivity of an average worker. Tesla&#39;s FSD Beta software alone currently costs US$15K, and sells very well.</p><p>Compared to the average US work week, which is about 38.7 hours, Optimus can stay connected 24/7 when working in a factory, bringing the total work week to 168 hours. That&#39;s a 4x increase in output.

There were also a slew of news announcements from Tesla and others that had very positive implications for the future. Nevertheless, Tesla shares this week seem headed for their longest losing streak since March 2021.We think that Tesla's new humanoid robot, in addition to developments in their real world AI, computing and other Tesla products currently represent a very attractive buying opportunity for long-term holders of the stock, and we expect it to outperform broad benchmarks even in times of macroeconomic distress.Bumble CAs Tesla's Humanoid Robot is still under development, they were able to show their prototype \"Bumble C,\" which is to become a low-cost and mass-producible Optimus robot.The initial release and demonstration of the product was followed by a variety ofreactions from expertsin the robotics industry and the investment community. Interestingly, Tesla received high praise from experts from the robotics industry, while there were many skeptics from the investment community.Tesla AI DayWe want to highlight the key differences between what makes Tesla's bot so different from competitors such as Boston Dynamics, Honda and others:Optimus is intended for mass production (i.e., thousands or millions of units).Project progress was made in just 6 to 8 months, compared with decades at competitors.The robot is expected to be affordable, costing only US$20K to manufacture, or \"significantly less expensive than an EV.\"Tesla has a formidable AI advantage in the real world thanks to data collection efforts such as their FSD beta.It is built for efficiency, and optimized for defined tasks rather than optimized for aesthetics.Tesla AI DayCritics who compared the Optimus prototype to Boston Dynamics, for example, should note that Boston Dynamics has been aroundfor 30 years, and their humanoid robot Atlas has been in development for nearly 10 years, rather than 6 to 8 months. Boston Dynamics has also shown no intention of mass-producing their Atlas Robot, or at what price. However, their smaller robot dog, Spot, is currently available at a price ofabout US$75,000. At a price of US$20,000, not only small businesses but also households should be able to afford an Optimus robot.The same goes for other concepts, such asHonda's Asimorobot, a humanoid robot that has been in development since the 1980s and was officially created in the year 2000. Although initially intended for mass development, Honda stopped producing Asimo robots to \"focus on more practical applications.\" None were actually sold, but Hondagave a pseudo quote of as much as $2.5 million per robot.Tesla's robot may not have the same dexterity and human-like character because it is not primarily intended to perform tasks such as parkour or dancing. We also believe that Tesla, thanks to its real-world data collection, for example with FSD Beta, and its fleet ofmore than 3 million cars, has a head start on developing a functional AI-driven humanoid robot.Tesla AI DayIt is also important to note that this event was not aimed at investors, as thesole purpose was to recruit the best possible talent for Tesla and their Optimus project. We believe that recruiting the most talented engineers and employees at Tesla is a huge advantage for innovation within the company and to stay ahead of the competition.For example, a recent survey of 49,197 American studentsby Universum, which specializes in employer branding, found that Tesla and SpaceX were named as their ideal employers. The combination of the ability to attract the best team of engineers, expertise in scaling and mass production, combined with a strong lead in data collection and years of expertise in real-world AI development, leads us to consider that Tesla is poised to become the leading company in humanoid robotics.Tesla AI DayThe Cost SavingsOne of the main reasons Tesla is likely to make robots for a price tag of only US$20K is probably their ability to scale, vertically integrate and simplify concepts by leveraging their advances in automotive technology. Remember, Tesla specializes in \"building the machine that builds the machine,\" like their Gigafactories.For example,in their Q2 report, they showed that the number of robots in their gigafactory body shop could be reduced by 70% compared to their first Model 3 body shop through large castings and parts consolidation. They are still on a quest for simplification with each new product and factory. Another example could be Tesla, which reportedlyremoved the ultrasonic sensorson Model 3 and Model Y vehicles because they are more confident in their AI and full self-driving capabilities.Vertical integration in innovation is always an important concept because the unit price of certain components can drop significantly as a result ofWright's Law. For example, according to Wright's law, the cost of batteries drops 28% for every cumulative doubling of the number of units produced. That concept could be accelerated, as some of the robots' components have similarities to what is used in EVs, and could be vertically integrated. The Optimus robots could also be used in Tesla's own production chain, producing more cars and robots.Tesla AI DayThere is still some debate whether Tesla will sell the robots at a fixed price, lease them, or possibly require an annual subscription for the robot and its software. If the Optimus could be produced for US$20K, it could represent a significant cost savings for employers that completely exceeds the output and productivity of an average worker. Tesla's FSD Beta software alone currently costs US$15K, and sells very well.Compared to the average US work week, which is about 38.7 hours, Optimus can stay connected 24/7 when working in a factory, bringing the total work week to 168 hours. That's a 4x increase in output. Let's say the robot can replace 4 full-time factory or warehouse workers performing boring and repetitive tasks, employers could save up to$29,250 per employeeper year.That makes $117,000 per robot per year, since its output is more than 4 times that of an employee. If the average lifetime of a robot is 8 years, this means a value of $936,000 per robot over its lifetime. This does not include the cost of employing workers, elimination of personnel costs, worker training and productivity loss due to illness or injury. Each year, approximately 2.3 million people worldwide suffer a work-related injury.Tesla AI DayWith a value of US$936,000 and a COGS of US$20,000 in mass production, each unit produced could generate US$916,000 in value. Suppose Tesla takes a 30% gross margin on the value of this robot, just as they dowith their cars, that leaves another US$274,800 in gross profit per unit produced, or US$274.8BN per million units produced.The big difference in why Tesla could succeed in building a truly intelligent robot capable of performing realistic tasks lies in itsdata advantageand its unique ability to collect data in real time. Even as we speak, thousands of cars worldwide on FSD Beta are collecting data to train Tesla's AI. It has been collecting such data since 2014, has a dataset of 4.8 million clips and has trained 75,778 models.Tesla AI DayTesla also showed that it is serious about AI, by giving us a big update on their Dojo supercomputer they are building, and what plans they have for it. Tesla currently still uses a lot of Nvidia (NVDA) GPUs, but plans to increase its own capabilities for training its neural net.It should also significantly reduce costs, and help Tesla maintain a data advantage. As Tesla's fleet grows exponentially with increased production and therollout of FSD betato more users, the amount of data Tesla and FSD beta collect in real-world applications also scales exponentially. Currently, Tesla has already driven over 35 million miles with its FSD beta cumulatively. Currently, they appear to be adding 10 million miles per quarter and expanding exponentially.Tesla currently claims that it can replace 6 GPU boxes with just 1Dojo tile, which they also claim costs less than 1 GPU box itself, further significantly improving their cost efficiency and form factor in building out their AI systems.Tesla AI DayThe Automotive SideTesla has ventured into many areas, including batteries, solar, AI, self-driving, computers, robotics and more. While all of these ventures are promising and show great potential, we believe Tesla's auto side itself can generate better returns than broad benchmarks such as the S&P 500 (SPY).In the transition to EVs, we believe that with Wright's Law in place,EVs will be on parin price with ICE vehicles by next year 2024, and it will be a no-brainer to buy an EV. Especially as US oil prices remain high.OPEC+, for example, announced this week a production cut of 2 million barrels per day. Not only will it become cheaper to buy an EV, including tax breaks, but it will also likely cost less to maintain and refuel, increasing the adoption rate exponentially.In 2021, the EV adoption rate was 6.6%, and we believe that by 2030 about 60% of car sales will be EVs, as EVs continue to fall below the same price as ICE vehicles as explained in our previous model. Under our assumptions, Tesla's market share in EVs will remain stagnant at 20% as competition enters the market. If both criteria are met, Tesla is expected to sell 10.8 million vehicles per year by 2030.Tesla IRThis is also in line withElon Musk's expectationto have a fleet of more than 100 million cars in 10 years. Tesla has set a goal of producing more than double our estimate of 20 million units by 2030. However, we believe Tesla's average selling price will drop from US$50,450 in 2021 to US$42,000 in 2030 as a result of a new smaller sedan, with a target price closer to US$25,000-US$35,0000, in addition to a price cut to keep up with competitive pressures.For a more in-depth explanation of our parameters for our valuation, please read our previous valuation modelpublished here on Seeking Alpha. We expect Tesla to generate approximately US$172.37BN in gross automotive revenue by 2030, with a gross margin of up to 38%.Author's CalculationsOpEx is also likely to improve significantly over time, as Elon Musk himself alluded that \"OpEx. is embarrassingly high.\" Tesla's adjusted EBITDA margin was 21.6% in 2021, which we predict could reach 32% over the next 8 years.

All the recent positive news, amid one of Tesla's biggest one-week declines, makes Tesla stock all the more attractive to buy at this time, in our opinion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":206,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9913492058,"gmtCreate":1664036210774,"gmtModify":1676537382121,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9913492058","repostId":"2269833450","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2269833450","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1664018544,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2269833450?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-24 19:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The iPhone 14 Has Been on Sale for a Week, The Pro Models Are the Stars","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2269833450","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Friday marks one week since Apple's iPhone 14 was released, and yet another analyst is reporting str","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Friday marks one week since Apple&#39;s iPhone 14 was released, and yet another analyst is reporting strong demand for the more expensive Pro models over the base options.</p><p>The new iPhone is available in four different models: The base iPhone 14, the iPhone 14 Plus, the iPhone 14 Pro, and the iPhone 14 Pro Max.

Additionally, the stronger dollar hurt, as did a slowdown in the Google Play Store, which was a big gaming hub last year but has seen those revenues decline.</p><p>Many other Silicon Valley companies have responded to the downturn in spending by slowing down hiring, at the very least, while others have already resorted to layoffs. None of that showed up in Google’s report, though, even as top executives pledged that hiring is slowing in both the fourth quarter and in 2023.</p><p>“Our Q4 headcount additions will be significantly lower than Q2 and as we planned for 2023, we’ll continue to make important trade-offs … and are focused on moderating operating-expense growth,” Alphabet Chief Executive Sundar Pichai said at the beginning of the call.</p><p>It shouldn’t be hard for executives to slow down the pace of their hiring. Chief Financial Officer Ruth Porat said the company had hired 12,765 people in the third quarter for a total of 186,779 employees, a 24.5% increase in head count from last year. While that includes roughly 2,600 workers who came on board in the acquisition of Mandiant, Wall Street analysts clearly were annoyed at the level of spending — when one analyst asked if Alphabet had conducted any sort of quantifiable analysis to ensure that it is generating a return on investment “from all your hiring,” Pichai did not answer the question.</p><p>“It’s been clear that we’re going to moderate our base of hiring going into Q4, versus 2023,” he said. “I think we are seeing a lot of opportunities across a whole set of areas and … talent is the most precious resource, so we are constantly working to make sure everyone we’ve brought in is working on the most important things as a company.”</p><p>Porat said that head-count additions in the fourth quarter will slow to less than half of the new hires in the September quarter, but that still suggests roughly 6,000 to 6,500 new hires. That is roughly the same size as Snap’s entire workforce <i>before</i> that company laid off one in five workers earlier this year, and roughly double the number of workers employed by Pinterest Inc.</p><p>Google has always ignored the whims of Wall Street and done whatever executives wanted to do, which can work if you’re growing fast and showing strong results. But Alphabet stock is no longer a safe haven, YouTube is shrinking and advertisers are slashing budgets — it is time for Google executives to find a new approach.</p><p>And if any investors were betting on strong results from Alphabet or other online-ad companies and hoping for strong near-term results, it may be time to switch up your game as well.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Google Was Supposed to Be Wall Street’s Safe Haven, but Now It’s a Dart Board</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\">\nGoogle Was Supposed to Be Wall Street’s Safe Haven, but Now It’s a Dart Board\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-26 17:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/google-was-supposed-to-be-wall-streets-safe-haven-but-now-its-a-dart-board-11666742251?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Continued heavy hiring in the face of an ad slowdown and revenue miss of more than $2 billion sends Alphabet stock south, and execs don't seem worried enough while piling on mosre costsSignage outside...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/google-was-supposed-to-be-wall-streets-safe-haven-but-now-its-a-dart-board-11666742251?mod=home-page\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GOOG":"谷歌","GOOGL":"谷歌A"},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/google-was-supposed-to-be-wall-streets-safe-haven-but-now-its-a-dart-board-11666742251?mod=home-page","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1129024455","content_text":"Continued heavy hiring in the face of an ad slowdown and revenue miss of more than $2 billion sends Alphabet stock south, and execs don't seem worried enough while piling on mosre costsSignage outside Google’s Bay View campus in Mountain View, Calif.

While that includes roughly 2,600 workers who came on board in the acquisition of Mandiant, Wall Street analysts clearly were annoyed at the level of spending — when one analyst asked if Alphabet had conducted any sort of quantifiable analysis to ensure that it is generating a return on investment “from all your hiring,” Pichai did not answer the question.“It’s been clear that we’re going to moderate our base of hiring going into Q4, versus 2023,” he said. “I think we are seeing a lot of opportunities across a whole set of areas and … talent is the most precious resource, so we are constantly working to make sure everyone we’ve brought in is working on the most important things as a company.”Porat said that head-count additions in the fourth quarter will slow to less than half of the new hires in the September quarter, but that still suggests roughly 6,000 to 6,500 new hires. That is roughly the same size as Snap’s entire workforce before that company laid off one in five workers earlier this year, and roughly double the number of workers employed by Pinterest Inc.Google has always ignored the whims of Wall Street and done whatever executives wanted to do, which can work if you’re growing fast and showing strong results. But Alphabet stock is no longer a safe haven, YouTube is shrinking and advertisers are slashing budgets — it is time for Google executives to find a new approach.And if any investors were betting on strong results from Alphabet or other online-ad companies and hoping for strong near-term results, it may be time to switch up your game as well.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":532,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9988525438,"gmtCreate":1666792921924,"gmtModify":1676537807197,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9988525438","repostId":"2278672309","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2278672309","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1666778473,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2278672309?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-26 18:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Has An Elon Musk Problem","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2278672309","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryTesla's growth is astonishing and it continued to hold significant market share in the United States and around the world in the all-electric vehicle industry.But with their currently-high valu","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>Summary</h2><ul><li>Tesla&#39;s growth is astonishing and it continued to hold significant market share in the United States and around the world in the all-electric vehicle industry.</li><li>But with their currently-high valuation relative to peers directly tied, I believe, to Elon Musk&#39;s involvement with the company - recent events may change that.</li><li>As a result, I evaluate the company&#39;s current fair value and believe it is lower enough to avoid the company altogether until it reaches more realistic levels.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/036a30b7377f20abe9dceec9a63d51f5\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"720\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Justin Sullivan</span></p><p>Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is an interesting growth story and one for the ages.

While this may not mean much for Tesla in the near term, it certainly will mean a lot in the longer term. There are hundreds of new all-electric and plug-in hybrid models hitting the streets (pun intended) in the coming years and while that may not do much for a few years, it&#39;s bound to cut into their market share.</p><p>In fact, that&#39;s already been happening. While their cars are not sold in the United States or in major markets (in significant numbers, in any case) outside of the People&#39;s Republic of China, BYD (OTCPK:BYDDF) has seen their market share double in the global all-electric vehicle sales and now stand at 11% while Tesla has decreased to about 19% in the latest report of YTD figures in 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec9fdb84e4e48b98991d0625bdc2217a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"233\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>H1 2022 EV Sales by Company (InsideEVs EV Sales)</span></p><p>Even with these global sales and market share figures, the company is still projected to do very well, as you can see by the company&#39;s current projections for sales and earnings.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7244826e2217edac067e967d0999422f\" tg-width=\"623\" tg-height=\"341\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Tesla Sales Growth Projections (Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p>But there&#39;s still this issue.</p><h2>The Elon Musk Problem</h2><p>I know, I know, I bore you with details about the company before getting to the issue at hand. But context here is very important.</p><p>The company does have things it can do, which don&#39;t require some magical solution by the contrarian-thinking Elon Musk - things like lowering their prices to outmaneuver other companies introducing high-end (ish) all-electric vehicles and things of that nature. But there&#39;s still an issue.</p><p>The issue is Elon Musk. While most of the world was struggling with updating the technology in regular automobiles, he was 10 steps ahead with battery technology advancements, technological advancements, EV range increases, charging station expansions and many other things.</p><p>This forward-thinking vision is exactly what made Tesla the hype (rightfully so, not in a bad way) which it is today and I don&#39;t believe the company will be where it is today without him. But for how long is he going to stay?</p><h3>Twitter Is Hardly The Only Issue</h3><p>As we&#39;ve seen with Jack Dorsey when he operated both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), it&#39;s nearly impossible to run multiple companies at once and do a great job at all of them, even if you&#39;re Elon Musk.</p><p>While Mr. Musk runs Tesla&#39;s as its chief-product-officer, as he dubs himself, he also runs SpaceX (SPACE), The Boring Company, SolarCity (part of Tesla) and other AI (artificial intelligence) companies and he now picked up Twitter.</p><p>While he did sell a significant portion of his Tesla stock to do so, diluting his ownership, it&#39;s the hands-off approach I think is coming to Tesla which can hurt valuation. Not only is there a board which can hold this work ethic accountable for the time spent elsewhere, it&#39;s about where he spends most of his time.</p><p>During the company&#39;s near-bankruptcy times a few years back, Elon Musk notoriously slept on the factory floor to make sure production headwinds were dealt with and it was undoubtedly one of the reasons employees, officers and other mangers managed to get the job done and get vehicles out for delivery.</p><p>Can Elon Must continue to do that now?</p><h3>Eventually He Has To Make A Choice</h3><p>Right now, I believe that Tesla is no longer a priority for Mr. Musk, and that the following companies will take precedent:</p><p>1 -<b>Twitter</b>: With Elon Musk&#39;s personal crusade and fortune tied into this acquisition, it&#39;s hardly a stretch to think that he&#39;ll need to spend a lot of time building the company into something which can potentially be profitable. Since 2021, a lot of the folks who he presumably wants to bring back to Twitter (I won&#39;t mention names since I don&#39;t want the article to turn political, but unless you&#39;ve been living in a cave for the past 3 years - you know who I mean) have found other platforms and have since gravitated away.</p><p>Especially since he plans to fire 75% of the company&#39;s employees, he&#39;ll need to have a hands-on approach if he wants to steer this mega tech company to a place where it can generate meaningful growth or profits in the years to come.</p><p>2 -<b>SpaceX</b>: With the world of space exploration just beginning, and the company&#39;s recent advancements in rocket technologies, the company has been experiencing increased demand and this too requires a hands on approach to work with the engineers to solve the seemingly endless headwinds they face trying to colonize other planets, set up the Starlink network and more.</p><p>This means, I believe, that outside of the near full-time job of running Twitter, that Mr. Musk will be spending a near full-time job equivalent of time at SpaceX in order to make these futuristic technologies and products work.</p><p>3 -<b>The Boring Company &amp; Neuralink</b>: While these companies have not been as high profile as Mr. Musk&#39;s other ones, recent news that the company is battling deadlines and postponing show-and-tell events further eludes or confirms that the companies are facing some difficulties taking off.</p><p>Since Mr. Musk has been actively taking part in these companies and their issues, it&#39;s apparent to me that he&#39;s going to continue to spend time with these companies, which will further take time away from Tesla.</p><h2>So What&#39;s The Problem Exactly?</h2><p>The problem is the company&#39;s valuation.</p><p>As we&#39;ve seen with sales, growth is projected to slow over the next decade since competitive pressures are mounting and that&#39;s true for net income as well, especially if the company will need to lower prices in order to compete.</p><h3>Earnings Per Share Multiples - Comparison</h3><p>Tesla is currently trading at 30x to 50x forward earnings per share projections while they&#39;re expected to report slowing growth and a decline by 2027 due to certain estimates that tax credits end and various other factors coming in.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0433a7fa8724b7ec3a9274292ecd618d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"170\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>EPS Projections &amp; FWD P/E Ratio (Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p>While these may not seem excessive, companies like Ford with a projected 25% increase in EPS this year are trading at around 7x forward earnings. Toyota Motors with a longer term EPS growth projection of 5-6% are trading at around 9x forward earnings.</p><h3>Sales Multiples - Comparison</h3><p>If we want to look at sales as an indication, things get even more interesting. Comparing Tesla&#39;s sales growth to that of BYD&#39;s, the company&#39;s closest competitor by unit sales volume, there&#39;s a stark difference in valuation.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3fb74c2c9e703771131b2ac31a12050\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"111\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>BYD Sales Growth / Multiples (Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb5de69f4748bc2763641db7f4589d7a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"110\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TSLA Sales Growth / Multiples (Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p>The difference here is quite astonishing. With nearly identical growth, Tesla is trading at 4.5x to 8x sales multiples while BYD is trading at 0.7x to 1.3x.</p><p>This is due in part to the enthusiasm and trust around Elon Musk&#39;s ability to solve issues and come up with product improvements, as his title so suggests. Without him at the helm, I have no doubt that the company can succeed, but can they do so at a valuation 3-4 times as high as other companies with somewhat similar growth projection? I&#39;m just not sure.</p><h2>Conclusion, If There Is One</h2><p>Is Tesla a good company which currently has a near monopoly on US all-electric vehicle sales with ramping up production in the Asia-Pacific and European Union and United Kingdom regions? Absolutely yes.</p><p>Will they continue to grow their long-term sales at low to mid double digits over the next decade? Most likely.</p><p>But with increasing competitive pressures from existing companies, near-certain Model 3 and Model Y pricing cuts and a sluggish sales prospect in China due to increasing competitive pressures from geopolitical forces, the company is going to need the ingenuity of the person who made them what they are today.</p><p>As Mr. Musk continued to take on more and more impossible projects, I don&#39;t believe that dedication is sustainable for Tesla and I believe that the company will see him having a more and more hands-off approach as he focused on the other monumental tasks ahead with Twitter, SpaceX, The Boring Company and Neuralink.</p><p>This doesn&#39;t mean that the company&#39;s growth is in question - but it does mean that if we treat Tesla as a generic company growing at the pace they are, they may be valued quite significantly lower than they are right now. This also means that, historically, during period where the market underperforms, like during recessions or market slowdowns, these types of companies tend to underperform the broader market.</p><p>While the company&#39;s growth is not in question, their valuation is. And as a result, I believe that their fair value lies lower than their current valuation. So while I do believe in their future, I&#39;m avoiding the stock altogether.</p><p><i>This article is written by </i><i>Pinxter Analytics</i><i> for reference only.

While there are some exceptions to this with Chinese-based companies, I'll discuss that later.This means that when a company like Hertz (HTZ) wants to cut their maintenance and fuel consumption surcharges and puts in an order for 100,000 all-electric cars - they really only have one option if they want them delivered within a year or two. And that's exactly what they did.US EV Sales - 2022 YTD (Electrek US EV Sales Tracker)Even while other companies like Ford (F), General Motors (GM), Toyota Motor (TM) have ramped up production of their all-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, they still remain well behind in their capacity for delivery.Furthermore, even though most other companies are catching up on this as time goes by, Tesla still has built-in technological advantages like automated driving capabilities, vehicle control technologies, supercharging stations and others.

But for how long is he going to stay?Twitter Is Hardly The Only IssueAs we've seen with Jack Dorsey when he operated both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), it's nearly impossible to run multiple companies at once and do a great job at all of them, even if you're Elon Musk.While Mr. Musk runs Tesla's as its chief-product-officer, as he dubs himself, he also runs SpaceX (SPACE), The Boring Company, SolarCity (part of Tesla) and other AI (artificial intelligence) companies and he now picked up Twitter.While he did sell a significant portion of his Tesla stock to do so, diluting his ownership, it's the hands-off approach I think is coming to Tesla which can hurt valuation. Not only is there a board which can hold this work ethic accountable for the time spent elsewhere, it's about where he spends most of his time.During the company's near-bankruptcy times a few years back, Elon Musk notoriously slept on the factory floor to make sure production headwinds were dealt with and it was undoubtedly one of the reasons employees, officers and other mangers managed to get the job done and get vehicles out for delivery.Can Elon Must continue to do that now?Eventually He Has To Make A ChoiceRight now, I believe that Tesla is no longer a priority for Mr. Musk, and that the following companies will take precedent:1 -Twitter: With Elon Musk's personal crusade and fortune tied into this acquisition, it's hardly a stretch to think that he'll need to spend a lot of time building the company into something which can potentially be profitable. Since 2021, a lot of the folks who he presumably wants to bring back to Twitter (I won't mention names since I don't want the article to turn political, but unless you've been living in a cave for the past 3 years - you know who I mean) have found other platforms and have since gravitated away.Especially since he plans to fire 75% of the company's employees, he'll need to have a hands-on approach if he wants to steer this mega tech company to a place where it can generate meaningful growth or profits in the years to come.2 -SpaceX: With the world of space exploration just beginning, and the company's recent advancements in rocket technologies, the company has been experiencing increased demand and this too requires a hands on approach to work with the engineers to solve the seemingly endless headwinds they face trying to colonize other planets, set up the Starlink network and more.This means, I believe, that outside of the near full-time job of running Twitter, that Mr. Musk will be spending a near full-time job equivalent of time at SpaceX in order to make these futuristic technologies and products work.3 -The Boring Company & Neuralink: While these companies have not been as high profile as Mr. Musk's other ones, recent news that the company is battling deadlines and postponing show-and-tell events further eludes or confirms that the companies are facing some difficulties taking off.Since Mr. Musk has been actively taking part in these companies and their issues, it's apparent to me that he's going to continue to spend time with these companies, which will further take time away from Tesla.So What's The Problem Exactly?The problem is the company's valuation.As we've seen with sales, growth is projected to slow over the next decade since competitive pressures are mounting and that's true for net income as well, especially if the company will need to lower prices in order to compete.Earnings Per Share Multiples - ComparisonTesla is currently trading at 30x to 50x forward earnings per share projections while they're expected to report slowing growth and a decline by 2027 due to certain estimates that tax credits end and various other factors coming in.EPS Projections & FWD P/E Ratio (Seeking Alpha)While these may not seem excessive, companies like Ford with a projected 25% increase in EPS this year are trading at around 7x forward earnings. Toyota Motors with a longer term EPS growth projection of 5-6% are trading at around 9x forward earnings.Sales Multiples - ComparisonIf we want to look at sales as an indication, things get even more interesting. Comparing Tesla's sales growth to that of BYD's, the company's closest competitor by unit sales volume, there's a stark difference in valuation.BYD Sales Growth / Multiples (Seeking Alpha)TSLA Sales Growth / Multiples (Seeking Alpha)The difference here is quite astonishing. With nearly identical growth, Tesla is trading at 4.5x to 8x sales multiples while BYD is trading at 0.7x to 1.3x.This is due in part to the enthusiasm and trust around Elon Musk's ability to solve issues and come up with product improvements, as his title so suggests. Without him at the helm, I have no doubt that the company can succeed, but can they do so at a valuation 3-4 times as high as other companies with somewhat similar growth projection? I'm just not sure.Conclusion, If There Is OneIs Tesla a good company which currently has a near monopoly on US all-electric vehicle sales with ramping up production in the Asia-Pacific and European Union and United Kingdom regions? Absolutely yes.Will they continue to grow their long-term sales at low to mid double digits over the next decade? Most likely.But with increasing competitive pressures from existing companies, near-certain Model 3 and Model Y pricing cuts and a sluggish sales prospect in China due to increasing competitive pressures from geopolitical forces, the company is going to need the ingenuity of the person who made them what they are today.As Mr. Musk continued to take on more and more impossible projects, I don't believe that dedication is sustainable for Tesla and I believe that the company will see him having a more and more hands-off approach as he focused on the other monumental tasks ahead with Twitter, SpaceX, The Boring Company and Neuralink.This doesn't mean that the company's growth is in question - but it does mean that if we treat Tesla as a generic company growing at the pace they are, they may be valued quite significantly lower than they are right now. This also means that, historically, during period where the market underperforms, like during recessions or market slowdowns, these types of companies tend to underperform the broader market.While the company's growth is not in question, their valuation is. And as a result, I believe that their fair value lies lower than their current valuation. So while I do believe in their future, I'm avoiding the stock altogether.This article is written by Pinxter Analytics for reference only.

And things may get worse than June, as the major indices reached their YTD lows last week backed by many layers of fear. Now, almost every day feels like going to the slaughterhouse. It is not far-fetched to say stocks have faced quadruple whammies over the last year or so. Inflation, War, Fed Policies, and Foreign policies have each taken the spotlight in sending stocks lower. So much that the last COVID-related selloff we recall happened in November of last year.</p><p>With fear comes panic. With panic come the opportunities for investors with these traits:</p><ul><li>Patience and Long-term view</li><li>Enough capital or cash flow to survive market declines. By &#34;survive&#34; we mean the ability to at least retain your current standard of living. Even if that means the market going down another 50% from here.</li><li>Belief in the underlying stock.</li></ul><p>Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the stocks that we believe in long term. We wrote this article back in June when the market was equally bad, suggesting investors sell puts at a price that was about 10% lower than the then-market price. By stroke of luck, Amazon has since outperformed the market handily, as Seeking Alpha has captured, as shown below. The point is not to tout such fleeting short-term &#34;success&#34; but rather to have the conviction to back a company you believe in through horrible market cycles.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f2da51c1838f709bb6ee20b7dc9c4b1\" tg-width=\"441\" tg-height=\"366\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Seekingalpha.com</p><p>In the interest of full disclosure, we did initiate a stock position in Amazon during this selloff. That is not to say we aren&#39;t interested in increasing our exposure to Amazon at attractive prices. But what is attractive and how does one get it? What if you want to buy Amazon but at a lower price? Sure, you may use a limit order, but what if the stock never gets to that point? You remain out of the game entirely. That is where selling puts comes into the picture, where you collect a premium right away for your skin in the game.</p><p>To keep things consistent with the previous article, let&#39;s look at a strike price that is about 10% lower than the current market price. It is interesting to note that the option premium (as a percentage of the underlying cost-basis) right now is much lower than it was back in June. Let&#39;s get into the details below.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57e28fe73e367d3cb8b2112a0ba19280\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"232\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Think or Swim</p><p>Key data points</p><ul><li>Strike Price: $102</li><li>Expiration Date: October 7th, 2022</li><li>Premium: $0.48/share, for a total of $48.</li></ul><p>In simple words, the put seller collects $48 to buy 100 shares of Amazon at $102 if the stock reaches $102 or below by October 7th, 2022. Bear in mind that time decay is in favor of the option seller, meaning as days go by, the option values declines.</p><p>What&#39;s the expected return and possible outcomes?</p><p><b>Return:</b>The premium collected ($48) for setting aside $10,200 represents just 0.47% for a little more than week. While any positive return in the current market is welcome, this is in stark contrast to the 1.25% return in June for comparable timeframe and strike price. How is that possible? On paper, things are at least a little worse, much worse now than in June. So, should the option seller not be paid a higher premium to undertake the risk of buying the underlying stock? The only logical answer we can come to is that the market does not believe the stock will go that low within the expiration date. That sounds like a positive affirmation to us.</p><p><i>Outcome #1:</i>If Amazon stays above $102 by the expiration date, the option seller just retains mentioned above. The option seller will not be obligated to buy the shares.</p><p><i>Outcome #2:</i>If Amazon goes below $102 by the expiration date, the option seller will be forced to buy 100 shares at $102, irrespective of where the stock trades at that time. Keeping the premium netted in mind, the average cost in this case will be $101.52 ($102 minus $0.48).</p><p><i>Outcome #3:</i>As an option seller, one can &#34;buy to close&#34; anytime instead of waiting till the expiration date. That may be appealing to those who have the time and patience to play short-dated options many times over.

And things may get worse than June, as the major indices reached their YTD lows last week backed by many layers of fear. Now, almost every day feels like going to the slaughterhouse. It is not far-fetched to say stocks have faced quadruple whammies over the last year or so. Inflation, War, Fed Policies, and Foreign policies have each taken the spotlight in sending stocks lower. So much that the last COVID-related selloff we recall happened in November of last year.With fear comes panic. With panic come the opportunities for investors with these traits:Patience and Long-term viewEnough capital or cash flow to survive market declines. By \"survive\" we mean the ability to at least retain your current standard of living. Even if that means the market going down another 50% from here.Belief in the underlying stock.Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the stocks that we believe in long term. We wrote this article back in June when the market was equally bad, suggesting investors sell puts at a price that was about 10% lower than the then-market price. By stroke of luck, Amazon has since outperformed the market handily, as Seeking Alpha has captured, as shown below. The point is not to tout such fleeting short-term \"success\" but rather to have the conviction to back a company you believe in through horrible market cycles.Seekingalpha.comIn the interest of full disclosure, we did initiate a stock position in Amazon during this selloff. That is not to say we aren't interested in increasing our exposure to Amazon at attractive prices. But what is attractive and how does one get it? What if you want to buy Amazon but at a lower price? Sure, you may use a limit order, but what if the stock never gets to that point? You remain out of the game entirely. That is where selling puts comes into the picture, where you collect a premium right away for your skin in the game.To keep things consistent with the previous article, let's look at a strike price that is about 10% lower than the current market price. It is interesting to note that the option premium (as a percentage of the underlying cost-basis) right now is much lower than it was back in June. Let's get into the details below.Think or SwimKey data pointsStrike Price: $102Expiration Date: October 7th, 2022Premium: $0.48/share, for a total of $48.In simple words, the put seller collects $48 to buy 100 shares of Amazon at $102 if the stock reaches $102 or below by October 7th, 2022. Bear in mind that time decay is in favor of the option seller, meaning as days go by, the option values declines.What's the expected return and possible outcomes?Return:The premium collected ($48) for setting aside $10,200 represents just 0.47% for a little more than week. While any positive return in the current market is welcome, this is in stark contrast to the 1.25% return in June for comparable timeframe and strike price. How is that possible? On paper, things are at least a little worse, much worse now than in June. So, should the option seller not be paid a higher premium to undertake the risk of buying the underlying stock? The only logical answer we can come to is that the market does not believe the stock will go that low within the expiration date. That sounds like a positive affirmation to us.Outcome #1:If Amazon stays above $102 by the expiration date, the option seller just retains mentioned above. The option seller will not be obligated to buy the shares.Outcome #2:If Amazon goes below $102 by the expiration date, the option seller will be forced to buy 100 shares at $102, irrespective of where the stock trades at that time. Keeping the premium netted in mind, the average cost in this case will be $101.52 ($102 minus $0.48).Outcome #3:As an option seller, one can \"buy to close\" anytime instead of waiting till the expiration date. That may be appealing to those who have the time and patience to play short-dated options many times over. But we typically let the option expire before choosing another chain (or another stock).Many ways to skin the catThe above chain was just one example. If you are looking for a higher return and a lower strike price, consider far-dated options like the one below. Our sweet spot has always been between a week and a month, as that give us enough time to react and at the same time does not tie up capital for too long.In this example, the options seller agrees to buy 100 shares of Amazon at 100 should the stock reach that by October 28th, while collecting a premium of about $2.30 per share. A 2.3% return in a month for setting aside capital is something many would grab with both hands in the current market.Think or SwimBe aware of your risks and choicesOnce again, please bear in mind that if your primary interest is in getting premiums, selling puts during down-trending markets may not be the best strategy. If the market blood bath continues, your stock may reach the strike price before you blink. However, if your interest is in acquiring the stock should things fall further, this is a wise strategy.

It&#39;s another case of not wanting to put all your eggs in one basket. To achieve true diversification, you should be invested in companies from different industries, sizes, and locations. Doing so by investing in individual companies can be time consuming and nerve wracking, but you don&#39;t have to go that route.</p><p>With these four exchange-traded funds (ETFs), you can have a well-rounded retirement portfolio with just a few investments.</p><h2>The one staple</h2><p>If there were one &#34;must-have&#34; investment everyone needs in a stock portfolio, it would be an <b>S&amp;P 500</b> index fund. The S&amp;P 500 tracks the 500 largest public U.S. companies and is the most followed index in the stock market. In fact, its performance is often used interchangeably with the overall stock market&#39;s performance.</p><p>Since the S&amp;P 500 only contains large-cap stocks (those with a market cap over $10 billion), it generally provides more stability than funds that contain small companies. You may not see the hypergrowth that you can with smaller-cap stocks, but you can take comfort in knowing it&#39;s well equipped to weather bad economic storms.</p><p>An S&amp;P 500 fund like the <b>Vanguard S&amp;P 500 Index Fund ETF</b> can be a great choice because of its low cost (0.03% expense ratio) and diversification. It&#39;s weighted by market cap, so the larger a company&#39;s market cap, the higher percentage of the fund it makes up. This may make it more top-heavy than other ETFs, but it still manages to cover all bases sector-wise.</p><h2>Don&#39;t forget the little players</h2><p>Small-cap stocks have a market cap between $250 million and $2 billion. Because of their relatively small size, smaller-cap stocks tend to have more room for growth than larger-cap stocks. With this growth potential, however, comes more proneness to volatility because these companies typically don&#39;t have as many financial resources at their disposal.</p><p>Small-cap stocks, by nature, are riskier than larger-cap stocks, but you can offset some of this risk by investing in a small-cap index fund like the Russell 2000. The Russell 2000 tracks the smallest 2,000 stocks in the Russell 3000 index, and it&#39;s largely considered the go-to benchmark for small-cap stocks -- similar to the S&amp;P 500 for large-cap stocks.</p><p>A Russell 2000 index fund such as the <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VTWO\">Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF</a></b> is low cost (0.10% expense ratio) and has a mix of value and growth stocks. You don&#39;t want small-cap stocks to be the bulk of your portfolio, but you should want to be invested in some.</p><h2>A good balance</h2><p>With market caps between $2 billion and $10 billion, mid-cap stocks can often be the best of both worlds: large enough to have a good amount of financial resources, yet small enough to still have room for lots of growth. You may not get the huge upside you would with small-cap stocks, but you also don&#39;t get the risk. And you may not get the stability that comes with large-cap stocks, but there&#39;s generally more upside.</p><p>The <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VO\">Vanguard Mid-Cap ETF</a></b> is low cost (0.04% expense ratio) and contains 360 stocks covering all 11 major sectors. Its top 10 holdings only make up 7.23% of the fund, so it&#39;s well diversified and not too top heavy like some ETFs can be.</p><h2>Look outside the U.S.</h2><p>To have a truly diversified stock portfolio, you shouldn&#39;t only invest in American companies. By doing so, you&#39;re limiting yourself and missing out on some great companies across the globe. International markets are typically divided into two categories: developed and emerging.</p><p>Developed markets are seen as having advanced economies, established industries, and solid infrastructure. Emerging markets may not have the advanced economics or infrastructure of developed markets, but they&#39;re seen as progressing that way, giving them more upside.</p><p>Instead of spending time researching different regions and the companies within them, you can lean on an international ETF like the <b>Vanguard Total International Stock ETF</b>.

It's another case of not wanting to put all your eggs in one basket. To achieve true diversification, you should be invested in companies from different industries, sizes, and locations. Doing so by investing in individual companies can be time consuming and nerve wracking, but you don't have to go that route.With these four exchange-traded funds (ETFs), you can have a well-rounded retirement portfolio with just a few investments.The one stapleIf there were one \"must-have\" investment everyone needs in a stock portfolio, it would be an S&P 500 index fund. The S&P 500 tracks the 500 largest public U.S. companies and is the most followed index in the stock market. In fact, its performance is often used interchangeably with the overall stock market's performance.Since the S&P 500 only contains large-cap stocks (those with a market cap over $10 billion), it generally provides more stability than funds that contain small companies. You may not see the hypergrowth that you can with smaller-cap stocks, but you can take comfort in knowing it's well equipped to weather bad economic storms.An S&P 500 fund like the Vanguard S&P 500 Index Fund ETF can be a great choice because of its low cost (0.03% expense ratio) and diversification. It's weighted by market cap, so the larger a company's market cap, the higher percentage of the fund it makes up. This may make it more top-heavy than other ETFs, but it still manages to cover all bases sector-wise.Don't forget the little playersSmall-cap stocks have a market cap between $250 million and $2 billion. Because of their relatively small size, smaller-cap stocks tend to have more room for growth than larger-cap stocks. With this growth potential, however, comes more proneness to volatility because these companies typically don't have as many financial resources at their disposal.Small-cap stocks, by nature, are riskier than larger-cap stocks, but you can offset some of this risk by investing in a small-cap index fund like the Russell 2000. The Russell 2000 tracks the smallest 2,000 stocks in the Russell 3000 index, and it's largely considered the go-to benchmark for small-cap stocks -- similar to the S&P 500 for large-cap stocks.A Russell 2000 index fund such as the Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF is low cost (0.10% expense ratio) and has a mix of value and growth stocks. You don't want small-cap stocks to be the bulk of your portfolio, but you should want to be invested in some.A good balanceWith market caps between $2 billion and $10 billion, mid-cap stocks can often be the best of both worlds: large enough to have a good amount of financial resources, yet small enough to still have room for lots of growth. You may not get the huge upside you would with small-cap stocks, but you also don't get the risk. And you may not get the stability that comes with large-cap stocks, but there's generally more upside.The Vanguard Mid-Cap ETF is low cost (0.04% expense ratio) and contains 360 stocks covering all 11 major sectors. Its top 10 holdings only make up 7.23% of the fund, so it's well diversified and not too top heavy like some ETFs can be.Look outside the U.S.To have a truly diversified stock portfolio, you shouldn't only invest in American companies. By doing so, you're limiting yourself and missing out on some great companies across the globe. International markets are typically divided into two categories: developed and emerging.Developed markets are seen as having advanced economies, established industries, and solid infrastructure. Emerging markets may not have the advanced economics or infrastructure of developed markets, but they're seen as progressing that way, giving them more upside.Instead of spending time researching different regions and the companies within them, you can lean on an international ETF like the Vanguard Total International Stock ETF. This ETF contains 7,991 companies in the following regions:Europe: 38%Pacific: 26.9%North America: 7.8%Emerging Markets: 26.8%Middle East: 0.5%With the Vanguard Total International Stock ETF, you get exposure to companies in developed and emerging markets, as well as some household names like Samsung and Toyota. A good rule of thumb is to have around 20% of your stock portfolio in international stocks. You'll likely be glad you did.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":433,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9917685516,"gmtCreate":1665500117635,"gmtModify":1676537617353,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9917685516","repostId":"1189371869","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189371869","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1665492847,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1189371869?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-11 20:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon: Still A Mixed Picture, I'll Wait For $90","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189371869","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryAmazon’s large price corrections, combined with the overall market turmoil, have triggered ma","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Amazon’s large price corrections, combined with the overall market turmoil, have triggered many Q&amp;A among our readers.</li><li>What I see is still a mixed picture with unfavorable odds.</li><li>Its profitability remains under pressure with the many near-term headwinds such as shipping congestion and inflation.</li><li>On the other hand, its valuation is too high.

In this article, I want to consolidate my responses and thoughts more cohesively. And I will do so by focusing on a macroscopic level, an approach motivated by two reasons.</p><p>First, AMZN is such a diversified company with so many complicated parts (retailer, AWS, hardware, et al). Each part merits an in-depth article and plenty of articles (including some of my own articles) have been written on the parts. So it makes sense to write an article at a macroscopic level with the hope of gaining a panoramic view at the cost of losing some of the details. This article will also complement the other pieces that other SA authors wrote about its segments.</p><p>Second, taking a macroscopic approach also helps to elucidate the core strategy and foundational concepts we use in our research and marketplace. So that you might be able to extend the methodology to other stocks of interest to yourself beyond AMZN. In particular, we will use the Fama French method in this article to analyze AMZN.</p><p>Under this context, the main conclusions of this article are twofold:</p><ul><li>Its profitability is less competitive than other peers. And I see inflation and supply chain pressures keep challenging its operating environment in the second half of 2022. In particular, the cost of fuel should lead operating expenses to increase during the remainder of the year. At the same time, the picture for overseas container costs remains mixed.</li><li>While at the same time, its valuation is still quite expensive, both in absolute terms and relative terms. Due to its current negative cash flow and negligible accounting EPS, valuation metrics in terms of bottom lines are not meaningful for AMZN. Its GAAP FW P/E is quoted at about 2531x. Even looking 2 years out, at its current price, its FY2 P/E of 50.75x is still too high when compared to the FAAMG group – which also has far better profitability metrics than AMZN.</li></ul><p>All told, I see a $90 stock price possible in the near future for AMZN given its historical volatility and its current elevated P/E. And that level, it would be much more reasonably valued and would be worthy of another close look.</p><p><b>Shipping situation remains mixed</b></p><p>AMZN faces a multitude of headwinds, ranging from high fuel cost, inflation, foreign exchange rates, et al. And all have been detailed in other SA articles. Here I will focus on one aspect not often mentioned: the mixed outlook of shipping costs.</p><p>On the positive side, the overseas shipping cost has gone down dramatically since its peak reached around September and October 2021 as you can see from the following chart (based on Drewry’s data). The shipping container costs peaked above $10k during that time. It has been continuously declining since then. The Drewry’s composite World Container Index decreased by 8% alone last week to the current $3,688. Compare to its peak level about 1 year ago, the current price is almost 1/3 of the peak price. To further corroborate the picture, the second chart below shows the trade routes from Shanghai to other key port cities in the world (also based on Drewry’s data). As seen, the costs have also been declining, almost continuously, since 2021 September too. Take the trade routes between Shanghai and New York as an example. The costs have declined by almost ½ from around $15k a year ago to the current level of about $7k.</p><p>However, on the negative side, the impacts of China’s COVID lockdown may still take time to clear up, and new lockdowns are very possible given the recent resurgence in key Chinese cities. At the same time, gasoline prices remain near a historical high. According to YCharts data shown below, the national average price per gallon of unleaded gasoline is $3.91. It is about 23% below the peak of $5.1 reached recently, but still among the highest level since 1995 as seen.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/256180d98a9dd64ca2d83ff439a9c5e0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Drewry’s data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69b9d87580ac4907f0c4fbe68d328fc7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"386\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Drewry’s data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07ece3b4ce194cad87f1dbdef5474f88\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Seeking Alpha data</p><p>AMZN profitability examined by Fama French</p><p>The factors above will keep their pressure on AMZN’s margins and profitability, which is not that impressive to start with as shown by a Fama French analysis below. The background of the Fama French has been provided in our earlier article. A brief recap is provided here for ease of reference (especially for readers who do not have access to our past articles).</p><blockquote><i>The method is named after Eugene Fama and Ken French. In 2013, Eugene Fama shared the Nobel Prize in economics with Lars Peter Hansen and Robert Shiller for their work on asset prices. The Fama French method is considered a significant improvement over the CAPM method because it adjusted for outperformance tendency.</i></blockquote><blockquote><i>The raw data used in this article were pulled from theDartmouth Tuck Business School database. We then analyzed the raw data using a simplified version of the Fama French method.</i></blockquote><blockquote><i>The following two charts show two of AMZN’s factors (operation profitability and valuation) compared to the general market.Past results have shown that these two factors have truly held up over all time periods.</i></blockquote><p>AMZN’s scores on these two factors are shown below. The first chart shows the OP factor of AMZN compared against all the other stocks in the market by percentile. As you can see, AMZN is not highly profitable by the OP metric (not a horrible one either). Its OP has oscillated the top 25% and the market median most of the time in recent years. Its current OP is 17.9%, actually slightly below the market median OP of 19.5%.</p><p>Another metric that we always like to check is the return on capital employed (“ROCE”), just in case for some businesses, the capital employed deviates from their equity substantially. And as seen, in AMZN’s case, there is a noticeable difference. Its ROCE (the thicker cyan line) has been consistently better than its OP, suggesting that its equity overrepresents its capital actually employed. But currently, its ROCE hovers around 16.4%, also below the market median as seen.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a7442f7c4e4bfe121f4d75c2d27c3ba\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"406\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author</p><p>AMZN valuation examined by Fama French</p><p>Now move on to the valuation factor. As aforementioned, due to its current negative cash flow and negligible accounting EPS, valuation metrics in terms of bottom lines are not meaningful for AMZN (FY1 GAAPP/E is 2531x). Even its FY2P/E of 50.75x is still too high when compared to the FAAMG group: more than 4x higher than META, 3x higher than GOOG, and 2x higher than AAPL and NFLX.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a89e3a63b9eef0ea0761ce0b6cc2210\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"133\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Seeking alpha data</p><p>The next chart shows AMZN’sP/E factor is also much higher than the overall market. Again, here you need to ignore the large gyrations because of the large fluctuations in its accounting EPS over the years. However, currently, its 50+ FY2P/E would make it among the most expensively valued stocks on the market.</p><p>To provide some reference points, the top 5% percentileP/E in the market is currently 117x, and the top 10% percentile is 69.9x. So regardless of whichP/E you want to pick for AMZN, its current valuation is near the top 5% or the 10% percentile, a stark contrast to its below-average profitability.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f9be743a0bfec85a1d5c881e8a1c8631\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"386\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author</p><p><b>Risks and final thoughts</b></p><p>To recap, despite large price corrections, I still see a mixed picture for AMZN under its current conditions. AMZN faces a multitude of headwinds, including shipping cost, inflation, foreign exchange rates, et al. I anticipate these headwinds to keep their pressure on its profitability, which is not super-competitive to start with. Its profitability, either measured by OP or ROCE, has oscillated between the top 25% and the market median most of the time. And they are currently slightly below the market median.</p><p>As such, under current conditions, we see better alternatives even within the FAAMG group. For example, the following two charts show the OP andP/E scores for Apple (AAPL). You can see the picture is completely the opposite when compared to AMZN. AAPL’s profitability, either measured by OP or ROCE, is far superior to the overall market as shown in the first chart. Yet, its valuation is only slightly above the market median.</p><p>All told, I see a $90 stock price possible for AMZN in the near future given its historical volatility and its current elevatedP/E. A $90 stock price would translate into a 40xP/E based on its FY2 EPS forecast. Still not cheap by any standard. But it is more reasonable and close to the top 25% percentile of the overall market. And a $90 level, it would be worthy of another close look given its growth potential (driven by its eCommerce, AWS, and healthcare initiatives for example).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8aa0f3e9e00bc90c9d1b923b0781f4e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"402\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/55e77e81f4516106d39fd3f27a099af2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"391\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon: Still A Mixed Picture, I'll Wait For $90</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\">\nAmazon: Still A Mixed Picture, I'll Wait For $90\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-11 20:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545827-amazon-still-a-mixed-picture-ill-wait-for-90><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAmazon’s large price corrections, combined with the overall market turmoil, have triggered many Q&A among our readers.What I see is still a mixed picture with unfavorable odds.Its profitability...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545827-amazon-still-a-mixed-picture-ill-wait-for-90\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"亚马逊"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545827-amazon-still-a-mixed-picture-ill-wait-for-90","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1189371869","content_text":"SummaryAmazon’s large price corrections, combined with the overall market turmoil, have triggered many Q&A among our readers.What I see is still a mixed picture with unfavorable odds.Its profitability remains under pressure with the many near-term headwinds such as shipping congestion and inflation.On the other hand, its valuation is too high.

So it makes sense to write an article at a macroscopic level with the hope of gaining a panoramic view at the cost of losing some of the details. This article will also complement the other pieces that other SA authors wrote about its segments.Second, taking a macroscopic approach also helps to elucidate the core strategy and foundational concepts we use in our research and marketplace. So that you might be able to extend the methodology to other stocks of interest to yourself beyond AMZN. In particular, we will use the Fama French method in this article to analyze AMZN.Under this context, the main conclusions of this article are twofold:Its profitability is less competitive than other peers. And I see inflation and supply chain pressures keep challenging its operating environment in the second half of 2022. In particular, the cost of fuel should lead operating expenses to increase during the remainder of the year. At the same time, the picture for overseas container costs remains mixed.While at the same time, its valuation is still quite expensive, both in absolute terms and relative terms. Due to its current negative cash flow and negligible accounting EPS, valuation metrics in terms of bottom lines are not meaningful for AMZN. Its GAAP FW P/E is quoted at about 2531x. Even looking 2 years out, at its current price, its FY2 P/E of 50.75x is still too high when compared to the FAAMG group – which also has far better profitability metrics than AMZN.All told, I see a $90 stock price possible in the near future for AMZN given its historical volatility and its current elevated P/E. And that level, it would be much more reasonably valued and would be worthy of another close look.Shipping situation remains mixedAMZN faces a multitude of headwinds, ranging from high fuel cost, inflation, foreign exchange rates, et al. And all have been detailed in other SA articles. Here I will focus on one aspect not often mentioned: the mixed outlook of shipping costs.On the positive side, the overseas shipping cost has gone down dramatically since its peak reached around September and October 2021 as you can see from the following chart (based on Drewry’s data). The shipping container costs peaked above $10k during that time. It has been continuously declining since then. The Drewry’s composite World Container Index decreased by 8% alone last week to the current $3,688. Compare to its peak level about 1 year ago, the current price is almost 1/3 of the peak price. To further corroborate the picture, the second chart below shows the trade routes from Shanghai to other key port cities in the world (also based on Drewry’s data). As seen, the costs have also been declining, almost continuously, since 2021 September too. Take the trade routes between Shanghai and New York as an example. The costs have declined by almost ½ from around $15k a year ago to the current level of about $7k.However, on the negative side, the impacts of China’s COVID lockdown may still take time to clear up, and new lockdowns are very possible given the recent resurgence in key Chinese cities. At the same time, gasoline prices remain near a historical high. According to YCharts data shown below, the national average price per gallon of unleaded gasoline is $3.91. It is about 23% below the peak of $5.1 reached recently, but still among the highest level since 1995 as seen.Source: Drewry’s dataSource: Drewry’s dataSource: Seeking Alpha dataAMZN profitability examined by Fama FrenchThe factors above will keep their pressure on AMZN’s margins and profitability, which is not that impressive to start with as shown by a Fama French analysis below. The background of the Fama French has been provided in our earlier article. A brief recap is provided here for ease of reference (especially for readers who do not have access to our past articles).The method is named after Eugene Fama and Ken French. In 2013, Eugene Fama shared the Nobel Prize in economics with Lars Peter Hansen and Robert Shiller for their work on asset prices. The Fama French method is considered a significant improvement over the CAPM method because it adjusted for outperformance tendency.The raw data used in this article were pulled from theDartmouth Tuck Business School database. We then analyzed the raw data using a simplified version of the Fama French method.The following two charts show two of AMZN’s factors (operation profitability and valuation) compared to the general market.Past results have shown that these two factors have truly held up over all time periods.AMZN’s scores on these two factors are shown below. The first chart shows the OP factor of AMZN compared against all the other stocks in the market by percentile. As you can see, AMZN is not highly profitable by the OP metric (not a horrible one either). Its OP has oscillated the top 25% and the market median most of the time in recent years. Its current OP is 17.9%, actually slightly below the market median OP of 19.5%.Another metric that we always like to check is the return on capital employed (“ROCE”), just in case for some businesses, the capital employed deviates from their equity substantially. And as seen, in AMZN’s case, there is a noticeable difference. Its ROCE (the thicker cyan line) has been consistently better than its OP, suggesting that its equity overrepresents its capital actually employed. But currently, its ROCE hovers around 16.4%, also below the market median as seen.Source: AuthorAMZN valuation examined by Fama FrenchNow move on to the valuation factor. As aforementioned, due to its current negative cash flow and negligible accounting EPS, valuation metrics in terms of bottom lines are not meaningful for AMZN (FY1 GAAPP/E is 2531x). Even its FY2P/E of 50.75x is still too high when compared to the FAAMG group: more than 4x higher than META, 3x higher than GOOG, and 2x higher than AAPL and NFLX.Source: Seeking alpha dataThe next chart shows AMZN’sP/E factor is also much higher than the overall market. Again, here you need to ignore the large gyrations because of the large fluctuations in its accounting EPS over the years. However, currently, its 50+ FY2P/E would make it among the most expensively valued stocks on the market.To provide some reference points, the top 5% percentileP/E in the market is currently 117x, and the top 10% percentile is 69.9x. So regardless of whichP/E you want to pick for AMZN, its current valuation is near the top 5% or the 10% percentile, a stark contrast to its below-average profitability.Source: AuthorRisks and final thoughtsTo recap, despite large price corrections, I still see a mixed picture for AMZN under its current conditions. AMZN faces a multitude of headwinds, including shipping cost, inflation, foreign exchange rates, et al. I anticipate these headwinds to keep their pressure on its profitability, which is not super-competitive to start with. Its profitability, either measured by OP or ROCE, has oscillated between the top 25% and the market median most of the time. And they are currently slightly below the market median.As such, under current conditions, we see better alternatives even within the FAAMG group. For example, the following two charts show the OP andP/E scores for Apple (AAPL). You can see the picture is completely the opposite when compared to AMZN. AAPL’s profitability, either measured by OP or ROCE, is far superior to the overall market as shown in the first chart. Yet, its valuation is only slightly above the market median.All told, I see a $90 stock price possible for AMZN in the near future given its historical volatility and its current elevatedP/E. A $90 stock price would translate into a 40xP/E based on its FY2 EPS forecast. Still not cheap by any standard. But it is more reasonable and close to the top 25% percentile of the overall market. And a $90 level, it would be worthy of another close look given its growth potential (driven by its eCommerce, AWS, and healthcare initiatives for example).Source: AuthorSource: Author","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":313,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9911958811,"gmtCreate":1664122088733,"gmtModify":1676537393359,"author":{"id":"3582706432505971","authorId":"3582706432505971","name":"Edrawdet","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa99f8231bc88d98f4cf101ac756955b","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582706432505971","authorIdStr":"3582706432505971"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9911958811","repostId":"2269833450","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2269833450","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1664018544,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2269833450?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-24 19:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The iPhone 14 Has Been on Sale for a Week, The Pro Models Are the Stars","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2269833450","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Friday marks one week since Apple's iPhone 14 was released, and yet another analyst is reporting str","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Friday marks one week since Apple&#39;s iPhone 14 was released, and yet another analyst is reporting strong demand for the more expensive Pro models over the base options.</p><p>The new iPhone is available in four different models: The base iPhone 14, the iPhone 14 Plus, the iPhone 14 Pro, and the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
