As the S&amp;P 500 (SP500) approaches all-time highs again, It’s difficult to find blue chip compounders that trade with appealing earnings/cash flow multiples (even on a forward basis). The good news is: cash still yields roughly 5%, so there’s no hurry for me to allocate new capital to the market.</p><p>These days, I’m happy to build my cash position and patiently wait for another macro pullback. With that being said, I do find myself tempted to add more Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) shares to my already overweight position because after that stock’s recent pullback, I believe that NVDA offers an attractive margin of safety and significant growth prospects.</p><p>It seems crazy to say that about a stock that’s up more than 140% on a year-to-date basis. Yet, it’s true.</p><p>NVDA was a top pick of mine coming into the year and the stock has exceeded expectations.</p><p>On December 29, 2023, I wrote an article titled, “My Top 3 Stock Picks for 2024” which included NVDA. I highlighted an upside potential of 25%-75% at the time, depending on the earnings multiple that investors felt comfortable paying for NVDA shares. Well, since then, NVDA beaten Wall Street’s earnings estimates a couple of times…</p><p>6 months ago, the consensus EPS estimate for NVDA on Wall Street for 2024 was $2.39/share.</p><p>6 months ago, the consensus EPS estimate for NVDA for 2025 was $2.86.</p><p>Today, those two figures are 17.6% and 36.4% higher at $2.81 and $3.90, respectively.</p><p>Furthermore, NVDA continues to produce triple digit top and bottom-line growth.</p><p>So, while shares are up 140%, I don’t think they’re much pricier than they were when I wrote that Top Picks piece.</p><p>Back in December, NVDA shares were trading for 24.2x forward EPS estimates. Today, NVDA shares trade for roughly 30.5x 2025 consensus. But, I think those forward estimates might be too low.</p><p>This company has made a habit of crushing Wall Street estimates during the past couple of years, and I doubt that trend is going to stop. I wouldn’t be surprised if NVDA’s ultimate 2025 EPS total rises to the $4.50 level, which would represent that same ~26x forward multiple.</p><p>Paying 26x earnings for a company with 40%+ EPS growth isn’t a bad deal.</p><p>What’s more, when I began to plan out this article at the beginning of the week, NVDA was trading in that 24x area. Nvidia has rallied by roughly12% during the last 5 trading sessions and still, the stock sits near the top of my personal watch list. That&#39;s because it’s one of the few blue chips that I track that is trading discounted to my fair value estimate.</p><p>NVDA is a perfect example of how a stock can move higher without getting pricier. To me, this company’s 2024 rally has been totally justified by its underlying fundamentals and with more fundamental growth on the horizon, I think that the stock’s post-earnings weakness has been irrational.</p><h2 id=\"id_1396233458\">Q2 Results &amp; Forward Outlook</h2><p>During the second quarter, NVDA beat Wall Street’s expectations on both the top and bottom lines, while also posting Q3 guidance that came in ahead of expectations. And yet, the stock sold off.</p><p>Sales came in at $30.04b, up 122.4% on a y/y basis (and 15% on a sequential basis).</p><p>NVDA’s all important Data Center segment posted $26.3b in sales, up by 154% on a y/y basis (and 16% on a sequential basis).</p><p>Non-GAAP EPS came in at $0.68, up 152% on a y/y basis (and 11% on a sequential basis).</p><p>During Q2, NVDA’s gross margin was 75.1%. That was down 330 basis points from the 78.4% figure that it posted during the first quarter; however, 75%+ margins is still incredibly impressive.</p><p>The combination of rapidly rising sales and increasing margins has turned NVDA into a free cash flow machine. During Q2, NVDA’s FCF was $13.5b, up from just $6.05b the year before.</p><p>And what I love about this company is that it’s not being stingy with this cash flow. During Q2 NVDA returned $15.4 billion to its shareholders in the form of dividends and buybacks.</p><p>Yes, after its amazing share price rally, NVDA’s dividend yield is miniscule. However, I’m not going to blame management for its tremendous success in that regard. NVDA recently raised its dividend by 150%. Obviously, that pace is not sustainable over the long term, but I do think that this is a stock that can compound its dividend at a strong double-digit clip for years to come.</p><p>That expectation, alongside ongoing buybacks (during Q2, NVDA announced a $50b buyback authorization), makes this one of the more interesting companies in the market for me, in terms of shareholder returns over the next 5–10 years.</p><p>Because of my bullish long-term outlook, I can’t believe that so many investors get caught up in near-term guidance and fear regarding produce rollout cycles.</p><p>Sure, the Blackwell chips were delayed. But in the grand scheme of things, who cares if they go on sale during Q4 or Q1? Not me.</p><p>For what it’s worth, recently headlines have come out reconciling those fears…</p><p>A recent article from TrendForce said,</p><p>“The report [regarding an article in Commercial Times citing sources familiar with NVDA’s production outlook] noted that NVIDIA’s updated version of B200 is expected to be completed by late October, allowing the GB200 to enter mass production in December, with large-scale deliveries to ODMs expected in the first quarter of next year.”</p><p>If this headline is the catalyst for NVDA’s 12% run this week (which it very well could be), then that’s all the evidence that you need that the market is driven by fear/greed and not efficient in the short term.</p><p>My point is…we all know that NVDA was going to sell billions and billions of dollars worth of Blackwell chips whenever they came out. Sure, this could mean an extra quarter of low-teens growth next year once NVDA starts facing its rough 2024 comps; however, it doesn’t change the longer-term growth outlook.</p><p>As you can see below, the primary hyperscalers have been accelerating their spending and none of them pointed towards capex slowdowns during their recent quarterly reports.</p><p><strong>Hyperscaler Capex (Billions)</strong></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/eb47d487080efe5c8dafe4df08be8c05\" tg-width=\"279\" tg-height=\"338\"/></p><p>Amazon doesn’t break out its capex as clearly as the others; however, during the full year in 2023 their management noted capex spending of $48.4b. That figure rose to $30.5b during the first half of 2024. And during its recent Q2 report, AMZN’s CFO, Brian Olsavsky said,</p><p>&#34;Looking ahead to the rest of 2024, we expect capital investments to be higher in the second half of the year. The majority of the spend will be to support the growing need for AWS infrastructure as we continue to see strong demand in both generative AI and our non-generative AI workloads.&#34;</p><p>And that’s just the tangible spending.</p><p>There’s been no indication that the accelerating capex spending by the hyperscalers is going to stop anytime soon (most big-tech companies have publicly stated their plans to continue to spend, despite criticism from some regarding ROI on AI-related chips/data center buildouts).</p><p>What’s more, there have been other mega-projects rumored, such as Sam Altman’s (the founder/CEO of OpenAI) theoretical Stargate project, which would combine millions of XPU’s (multiple data centers) to create a super computer that would be powerful enough to create true AGI (artificial general intelligence).</p><p>After the Stargate rumors began to emerge (do you remember rumors of Altman headed to the Middle East to ask the oil barons for trillions of dollars to build his dream?) Timothy Prickett Smith, at NextPlatform, performed analysis which pointed towards Microsoft’s ability to build out Stargate on its own.</p><p>Smith wrote,</p><blockquote><p>“So Microsoft doesn’t have the dough to do the Stargate effort right now all at once, but its software and cloud businesses together generated $82.5 billion in net income against about $227.6 billion in sales for the trailing twelve months. Over the next six years, if the software and cloud businesses just stayed where it was, Microsoft will bring in $1.37 trillion in revenues and have around $500 billion in net income. It can afford the Stargate effort.”</p></blockquote><p>He also broke down the theoretical costs, which included more than $57b in GPU/XPU hardware cost over the next 5 years (and being that NVDA dominates the market share in this space, it’s reasonable to assume that they’d be the biggest financial beneficiaries).</p><p>And ask yourself this…</p><p>Is Alphabet, Meta, Apple, or Tesla going to simply let Microsoft/OpenAI going to run away with the AGI-creation of its own?</p><p>That’s highly doubtful.</p><p>Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, recently unveiled its AI supercomputer called “Colossus” which runs on 100,000 NVDA chips.</p><p>This will be the biggest technological race that we’ve ever seen. Trillions will be spent. And as of right now, NVDA is the clear beneficiary (and really the only company that has been able to successfully monetize the AI craze at scale).</p><p>With all of that in mind, it seems clear that NVDA is going to have a big second half (regardless of which chipset is for sale) and an even bigger 2025 once Blackwell finally rolls out…and strong earning years for the foreseeable future.</p><p>The AI naysayers might end up being right. Maybe the hyperscalers are lighting money on fire right now because they’ll never be able to generate strong returns on the capital they’re investing in this space. But, the risk of sitting on the sidelines is too large. AI is likely to be the biggest technological disruptor of our lifetimes and even the biggest of the big-tech companies can’t afford to risk missing this trend.</p><p>Yes, during Q2 we saw slowing growth show up in the sequential numbers. That’s OK. Currently, consensus EPS forecasts point towards ~40% growth next year. That seems like a reasonable expectation to me (given the Blackwell launch) and therefore, I don’t think shares are trading with an extraordinarily high valuation premium attached to them.</p><h2 id=\"id_3260036745\">Valuation</h2><p>I’ll admit, when looking at NVDA through a trailing twelve months (“ttm”) or even a blended P/E lens, shares can look pricey.</p><p>The stock’s blended P/E ratio right now is 53.5x. That’s a lot. But, once you factor in the likelihood of ~120% EPS growth this year and another 40% next year, things don’t look so bad on a forward basis.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82818c1164262911ef2436cd91aa80fd\" alt=\"FAST Graphs\" title=\"FAST Graphs\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"/><span>FAST Graphs</span></p><p>This is the entire premise of my bullish outlook here. If you doubt that NVDA is going to post strong results during the next 6 quarters or so, then it probably makes sense to be bearish on shares. As for me, I have a lot of conviction that NVDA will continue to post strong growth.</p><p>Back in December, I said that 30-35x forward earnings was a fair price to pay for this company.</p><p>Because of slowing growth prospects, I’ve lowered my target multiple a bit, to 30x (which, as you can see above, is well below the stock’s 10-year average of 40.1x; for further reference, NVDA’s 3 and 5-year average P/E’s are 53.7x and 48.9x).</p><p>With that 30x target in mind, shares look cheap here.</p><p>30x the current 2025 EPS consensus of $3.90 is $117 (so just a couple of bucks north of today’s $119 share price).</p><p>But, like I said, I think it’s highly likely that NVDA’s actual 2025 EPS result comes in well ahead of current consensus.</p><p>Remember, NVDA has beaten Wall Street’s estimates during each of the last 8 quarters and throughout this period of time, the consensus estimate has continued to rise.</p><p>Heck, I started writing this article a week ago and since then, I’ve already had to edit it because the 2025 EPS consensus rose by $0.02.</p><p>I think $4.25-$4.50 is where EPS will ultimately land and with that in mind, a 30x forward multiple would represent a fair value range of $127.50-$135.00.</p><p>That points towards 7%-13.4% upside potential. .</p><p>And that’s just over the next 16 months or so. In 5–10 years, I believe that NVDA’s EPS could be multiple times higher than its current level, pointing towards solid long-term potential as well.</p><h2 id=\"id_3160010261\">Conclusion</h2><p>It’s a bummer that NVDA has rallied this week. On Monday, when I added this article to my weekly calendar, I thought shares had 20%+ upside potential over the next year or so. Because of the rally, that’s no longer the case.</p><p>However, I’m still pleased to hold my overweight position. That&#39;s because I believe this stock still has market-beating potential over the longer term. Like I said, I’m thinking about adding to my position because there aren’t many other, attractively priced compounders left in the market today.</p><p>NVDA is my second-largest holding, accounting for roughly 6.8% of my overall portfolio.</p><p>Today, NVDA represents 6.2% of the S&amp;P 500, so I’m overweight the broad market benchmark.</p><p>It’s difficult for me to think about making a significant addition to my take because:</p><p>I like to stay diversified and limit single stock risk by limiting positions to the high single digit percentage threshold.</p><p>Nvidia doesn’t pay a significant dividend yield, so adding shares at these levels doesn’t do much to enhance my passive income stream</p><p>As silly as this may be, because of my extremely low-cost basis, it’s hard for me to think about buying shares at today’s prices… I irrationally wish that I could hop into a time machine and buy a bunch more shares back in 2017 when I originally started building my position, instead.</p><p>Yet, due to the lack of great bargains in the market, I find myself drawn to stocks with strong organic growth potential and Nvidia fits that bill.</p><p>Because of my conviction in the stock moving forward, I’d be willing to push my NVDA stake up towards the 7-8% range, meaning that I could purchase several more share lots before I’m in a total hold mode.</p><p>As I’ve said before, I’d rather rely on organic compounding for upside potential than to place deep value bets that rely on shifting sentiment in the markets and multiple expansion.</p><p>I’d even rather risk potentially overpaying for shares than falling into a value trap. Over time, money thrown into value traps tends to disappear, whereas, fundamental growth will eventually overcome elevated premiums in the near-term, eventually resulting in rising share prices.</p><p>In the very short-term (the coming days/weeks) I don’t feel compelled to rush into another NVDA purchase. But, I do want to stay disciplined and continue to allocate new cash to the market every month. Therefore, NVDA is a real contender for one of my September purchases at today’s prices.</p><p>Simply put, I’m not seeing very many other options with similar valuation and quality scores.</p><p>And, if the bullish sentiment surrounding shares sours, and we see a sell-off back down below the $110 range, I&#39;ll happily get more aggressive here.

As the S&P 500 (SP500) approaches all-time highs again, It’s difficult to find blue chip compounders that trade with appealing earnings/cash flow multiples (even on a forward basis). The good news is: cash still yields roughly 5%, so there’s no hurry for me to allocate new capital to the market.These days, I’m happy to build my cash position and patiently wait for another macro pullback. With that being said, I do find myself tempted to add more Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) shares to my already overweight position because after that stock’s recent pullback, I believe that NVDA offers an attractive margin of safety and significant growth prospects.It seems crazy to say that about a stock that’s up more than 140% on a year-to-date basis. Yet, it’s true.NVDA was a top pick of mine coming into the year and the stock has exceeded expectations.On December 29, 2023, I wrote an article titled, “My Top 3 Stock Picks for 2024” which included NVDA. I highlighted an upside potential of 25%-75% at the time, depending on the earnings multiple that investors felt comfortable paying for NVDA shares. Well, since then, NVDA beaten Wall Street’s earnings estimates a couple of times…6 months ago, the consensus EPS estimate for NVDA on Wall Street for 2024 was $2.39/share.6 months ago, the consensus EPS estimate for NVDA for 2025 was $2.86.Today, those two figures are 17.6% and 36.4% higher at $2.81 and $3.90, respectively.Furthermore, NVDA continues to produce triple digit top and bottom-line growth.So, while shares are up 140%, I don’t think they’re much pricier than they were when I wrote that Top Picks piece.Back in December, NVDA shares were trading for 24.2x forward EPS estimates. Today, NVDA shares trade for roughly 30.5x 2025 consensus. But, I think those forward estimates might be too low.This company has made a habit of crushing Wall Street estimates during the past couple of years, and I doubt that trend is going to stop. I wouldn’t be surprised if NVDA’s ultimate 2025 EPS total rises to the $4.50 level, which would represent that same ~26x forward multiple.Paying 26x earnings for a company with 40%+ EPS growth isn’t a bad deal.What’s more, when I began to plan out this article at the beginning of the week, NVDA was trading in that 24x area. Nvidia has rallied by roughly12% during the last 5 trading sessions and still, the stock sits near the top of my personal watch list. That's because it’s one of the few blue chips that I track that is trading discounted to my fair value estimate.NVDA is a perfect example of how a stock can move higher without getting pricier. To me, this company’s 2024 rally has been totally justified by its underlying fundamentals and with more fundamental growth on the horizon, I think that the stock’s post-earnings weakness has been irrational.Q2 Results & Forward OutlookDuring the second quarter, NVDA beat Wall Street’s expectations on both the top and bottom lines, while also posting Q3 guidance that came in ahead of expectations. And yet, the stock sold off.Sales came in at $30.04b, up 122.4% on a y/y basis (and 15% on a sequential basis).NVDA’s all important Data Center segment posted $26.3b in sales, up by 154% on a y/y basis (and 16% on a sequential basis).Non-GAAP EPS came in at $0.68, up 152% on a y/y basis (and 11% on a sequential basis).During Q2, NVDA’s gross margin was 75.1%. That was down 330 basis points from the 78.4% figure that it posted during the first quarter; however, 75%+ margins is still incredibly impressive.The combination of rapidly rising sales and increasing margins has turned NVDA into a free cash flow machine. During Q2, NVDA’s FCF was $13.5b, up from just $6.05b the year before.And what I love about this company is that it’s not being stingy with this cash flow. During Q2 NVDA returned $15.4 billion to its shareholders in the form of dividends and buybacks.Yes, after its amazing share price rally, NVDA’s dividend yield is miniscule. However, I’m not going to blame management for its tremendous success in that regard. NVDA recently raised its dividend by 150%. Obviously, that pace is not sustainable over the long term, but I do think that this is a stock that can compound its dividend at a strong double-digit clip for years to come.That expectation, alongside ongoing buybacks (during Q2, NVDA announced a $50b buyback authorization), makes this one of the more interesting companies in the market for me, in terms of shareholder returns over the next 5–10 years.Because of my bullish long-term outlook, I can’t believe that so many investors get caught up in near-term guidance and fear regarding produce rollout cycles.Sure, the Blackwell chips were delayed. But in the grand scheme of things, who cares if they go on sale during Q4 or Q1? Not me.For what it’s worth, recently headlines have come out reconciling those fears…A recent article from TrendForce said,“The report [regarding an article in Commercial Times citing sources familiar with NVDA’s production outlook] noted that NVIDIA’s updated version of B200 is expected to be completed by late October, allowing the GB200 to enter mass production in December, with large-scale deliveries to ODMs expected in the first quarter of next year.”If this headline is the catalyst for NVDA’s 12% run this week (which it very well could be), then that’s all the evidence that you need that the market is driven by fear/greed and not efficient in the short term.My point is…we all know that NVDA was going to sell billions and billions of dollars worth of Blackwell chips whenever they came out. Sure, this could mean an extra quarter of low-teens growth next year once NVDA starts facing its rough 2024 comps; however, it doesn’t change the longer-term growth outlook.As you can see below, the primary hyperscalers have been accelerating their spending and none of them pointed towards capex slowdowns during their recent quarterly reports.Hyperscaler Capex (Billions)Amazon doesn’t break out its capex as clearly as the others; however, during the full year in 2023 their management noted capex spending of $48.4b. That figure rose to $30.5b during the first half of 2024. And during its recent Q2 report, AMZN’s CFO, Brian Olsavsky said,\"Looking ahead to the rest of 2024, we expect capital investments to be higher in the second half of the year. The majority of the spend will be to support the growing need for AWS infrastructure as we continue to see strong demand in both generative AI and our non-generative AI workloads.\"And that’s just the tangible spending.There’s been no indication that the accelerating capex spending by the hyperscalers is going to stop anytime soon (most big-tech companies have publicly stated their plans to continue to spend, despite criticism from some regarding ROI on AI-related chips/data center buildouts).What’s more, there have been other mega-projects rumored, such as Sam Altman’s (the founder/CEO of OpenAI) theoretical Stargate project, which would combine millions of XPU’s (multiple data centers) to create a super computer that would be powerful enough to create true AGI (artificial general intelligence).After the Stargate rumors began to emerge (do you remember rumors of Altman headed to the Middle East to ask the oil barons for trillions of dollars to build his dream?) Timothy Prickett Smith, at NextPlatform, performed analysis which pointed towards Microsoft’s ability to build out Stargate on its own.Smith wrote,“So Microsoft doesn’t have the dough to do the Stargate effort right now all at once, but its software and cloud businesses together generated $82.5 billion in net income against about $227.6 billion in sales for the trailing twelve months. Over the next six years, if the software and cloud businesses just stayed where it was, Microsoft will bring in $1.37 trillion in revenues and have around $500 billion in net income. It can afford the Stargate effort.”He also broke down the theoretical costs, which included more than $57b in GPU/XPU hardware cost over the next 5 years (and being that NVDA dominates the market share in this space, it’s reasonable to assume that they’d be the biggest financial beneficiaries).And ask yourself this…Is Alphabet, Meta, Apple, or Tesla going to simply let Microsoft/OpenAI going to run away with the AGI-creation of its own?That’s highly doubtful.Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, recently unveiled its AI supercomputer called “Colossus” which runs on 100,000 NVDA chips.This will be the biggest technological race that we’ve ever seen. Trillions will be spent. And as of right now, NVDA is the clear beneficiary (and really the only company that has been able to successfully monetize the AI craze at scale).With all of that in mind, it seems clear that NVDA is going to have a big second half (regardless of which chipset is for sale) and an even bigger 2025 once Blackwell finally rolls out…and strong earning years for the foreseeable future.The AI naysayers might end up being right. Maybe the hyperscalers are lighting money on fire right now because they’ll never be able to generate strong returns on the capital they’re investing in this space. But, the risk of sitting on the sidelines is too large. AI is likely to be the biggest technological disruptor of our lifetimes and even the biggest of the big-tech companies can’t afford to risk missing this trend.Yes, during Q2 we saw slowing growth show up in the sequential numbers. That’s OK. Currently, consensus EPS forecasts point towards ~40% growth next year. That seems like a reasonable expectation to me (given the Blackwell launch) and therefore, I don’t think shares are trading with an extraordinarily high valuation premium attached to them.ValuationI’ll admit, when looking at NVDA through a trailing twelve months (“ttm”) or even a blended P/E lens, shares can look pricey.The stock’s blended P/E ratio right now is 53.5x. That’s a lot. But, once you factor in the likelihood of ~120% EPS growth this year and another 40% next year, things don’t look so bad on a forward basis.FAST GraphsThis is the entire premise of my bullish outlook here. If you doubt that NVDA is going to post strong results during the next 6 quarters or so, then it probably makes sense to be bearish on shares. As for me, I have a lot of conviction that NVDA will continue to post strong growth.Back in December, I said that 30-35x forward earnings was a fair price to pay for this company.Because of slowing growth prospects, I’ve lowered my target multiple a bit, to 30x (which, as you can see above, is well below the stock’s 10-year average of 40.1x; for further reference, NVDA’s 3 and 5-year average P/E’s are 53.7x and 48.9x).With that 30x target in mind, shares look cheap here.30x the current 2025 EPS consensus of $3.90 is $117 (so just a couple of bucks north of today’s $119 share price).But, like I said, I think it’s highly likely that NVDA’s actual 2025 EPS result comes in well ahead of current consensus.Remember, NVDA has beaten Wall Street’s estimates during each of the last 8 quarters and throughout this period of time, the consensus estimate has continued to rise.Heck, I started writing this article a week ago and since then, I’ve already had to edit it because the 2025 EPS consensus rose by $0.02.I think $4.25-$4.50 is where EPS will ultimately land and with that in mind, a 30x forward multiple would represent a fair value range of $127.50-$135.00.That points towards 7%-13.4% upside potential. .And that’s just over the next 16 months or so. In 5–10 years, I believe that NVDA’s EPS could be multiple times higher than its current level, pointing towards solid long-term potential as well.ConclusionIt’s a bummer that NVDA has rallied this week. On Monday, when I added this article to my weekly calendar, I thought shares had 20%+ upside potential over the next year or so. Because of the rally, that’s no longer the case.However, I’m still pleased to hold my overweight position. That's because I believe this stock still has market-beating potential over the longer term. Like I said, I’m thinking about adding to my position because there aren’t many other, attractively priced compounders left in the market today.NVDA is my second-largest holding, accounting for roughly 6.8% of my overall portfolio.Today, NVDA represents 6.2% of the S&P 500, so I’m overweight the broad market benchmark.It’s difficult for me to think about making a significant addition to my take because:I like to stay diversified and limit single stock risk by limiting positions to the high single digit percentage threshold.Nvidia doesn’t pay a significant dividend yield, so adding shares at these levels doesn’t do much to enhance my passive income streamAs silly as this may be, because of my extremely low-cost basis, it’s hard for me to think about buying shares at today’s prices… I irrationally wish that I could hop into a time machine and buy a bunch more shares back in 2017 when I originally started building my position, instead.Yet, due to the lack of great bargains in the market, I find myself drawn to stocks with strong organic growth potential and Nvidia fits that bill.Because of my conviction in the stock moving forward, I’d be willing to push my NVDA stake up towards the 7-8% range, meaning that I could purchase several more share lots before I’m in a total hold mode.As I’ve said before, I’d rather rely on organic compounding for upside potential than to place deep value bets that rely on shifting sentiment in the markets and multiple expansion.I’d even rather risk potentially overpaying for shares than falling into a value trap. Over time, money thrown into value traps tends to disappear, whereas, fundamental growth will eventually overcome elevated premiums in the near-term, eventually resulting in rising share prices.In the very short-term (the coming days/weeks) I don’t feel compelled to rush into another NVDA purchase. But, I do want to stay disciplined and continue to allocate new cash to the market every month. Therefore, NVDA is a real contender for one of my September purchases at today’s prices.Simply put, I’m not seeing very many other options with similar valuation and quality scores.And, if the bullish sentiment surrounding shares sours, and we see a sell-off back down below the $110 range, I'll happily get more aggressive here. Now that the Q2 results are officially out, I feel comfortable continuing to build this position.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":343634073063552,"gmtCreate":1724924536967,"gmtModify":1724924540755,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The fundamentals exist.

But Nvidia investors have grown accustomed to blowout quarters, and the latest numbers didn’t qualify.</p><p>Moreover, Nvidia’s next big cash cow — the new Blackwell processor lineup — has proven more challenging to manufacture than anticipated. The product is the next generation of the company’s dominant artificial intelligence processor, and fears of delays contributed to a stock decline of 2.4% in premarket trading Thursday, trimming previous losses. The shares had more than doubled this year through Wednesday’s close, following a gain of 239% in 2023.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a388c7573ec9ea965ae5c76f1c498cd4\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"872\" tg-height=\"624\"/></p><p>“It was up against lofty and unsustainable expectations,” Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Kunjan Sobhani and Oscar Hernandez Tejada said in a note.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Third-quarter revenue will be about $32.5 billion, the company said. Though analysts had predicted $31.9 billion on average, estimates ranged as high as $37.9 billion.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The disappointing outlook threatens to tamp down an AI frenzy that has transformed Nvidia into the world’s second-most-valuable company. The chipmaker is the key beneficiary of a race to upgrade data centers to handle AI software, and its sales forecasts have become a barometer for that spending boom.</p><p>Heading into the announcement, there was concern that Nvidia was having problems with its new Blackwell design. The company acknowledged that there were issues with production, saying that it was making changes to improve its manufacturing yield — the number of functioning chips that come out of factories. At the same time, the company said it expects to bring in “several billion dollars” of revenue in the fourth quarter from the product.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Supplies will be plentiful after manufacturing gains momentum, Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang said later during a Bloomberg Television interview. “We’re going to have lots and lots of supply, and we will be able to ramp,” he said.</p><p>Nvidia is coming off a string of quarters that shattered Wall Street expectations — even as analysts continued to raise estimates. But the amount of upside has been trending down.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Most of Nvidia’s growth also has come from a small group of customers. About 40% of Nvidia’s revenue stems from large data-center operators — companies like Alphabet Inc.’s Google and Meta Platforms Inc. — which are pouring tens of billions of dollars into AI infrastructure.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Though Meta and others have increased their capital expenditure budgets this earnings season, there’s been concern that the amount of infrastructure being put in place exceeds current requirements. That could lead to a bubble. But Nvidia’s Huang has maintained that this is only the beginning of a new era for technology and the economy.</p><p>Expectations were lofty. Nvidia has been the best performing stock in the S&amp;P 500 Index this year, eclipsing gains by all other semiconductor companies.

Over the past five years, both stocks have been strong performers. AMD is up over 433% during that stretch, which is outstanding. However, that return pales in comparison to the over 3,000% gain in Nvidia&#39;s stock.</p><p>Nvidia has been the better stock during the past five years, but which stock will likely outperform over the next five?</p><h2 id=\"id_3695142652\">Nvidia vs. AMD</h2><p>At the moment, the buildout of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure benefits both companies, given the demand for the graphic processing units (GPUs) needed to power large language model (LLM) training and artificial intelligence (AI) inference. This insatiable demand for GPUs led Nvidia&#39;s data center segment to post $22.6 billion in fiscal 2025 Q1 revenue (for the quarter ending April 28, 2024), an incredible 427% year-over-year increase. AMD&#39;s data center segment, meanwhile, saw its fiscal 2024 first-quarter revenue soar more than 80% year over year to $2.3 billion.</p><p>Nvidia has become the clear leader in the AI chip space, which can be seen with its data center segment generating nearly 10 times the amount of revenue that AMD&#39;s data center segment produced. The company&#39;s GPUs have become the primary ones used, due to its CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) software platform, which developers have long been trained on to program the chips. This, in turn, has helped create a wide moat for the company&#39;s GPUs, giving it more than about 80% market share.</p><p>However, the segment is still growing nicely for AMD as its GPUs become an alternative to Nvidia&#39;s chips, which are in tight supply. Enterprises often like to have multiple suppliers so they don&#39;t become dependent on just one.</p><p>AMD is making some inroads. Last month, Microsoft announced that it would offer clusters of AMD&#39;s MI300X chips through its Azure cloud computing service as a Nvidia alternative. In addition, AMD recently said it has had serious inquiries about building an AI cluster with over 1 million GPUs. Given that AI training clusters are typically built with a few thousand GPUs, this would be a huge win for AMD if it ever came to fruition.</p><p>While Nvidia&#39;s results are dominated by its GPU products and data center segment, the data center only accounted for 43% of AMD&#39;s total revenue, while it was 87% of Nvidia&#39;s revenue. At the same time, some of AMD&#39;s other segments struggled, which led to total year-over-year revenue growth in the quarter of only 2%, compared to 262% for Nvidia.</p><h2 id=\"id_527809592\">Which stock is the better buy?</h2><p>Despite Nvidia&#39;s strong stock performance, the two stocks actually trade at nearly identical forward price-to-earnings (P/E) valuations. Nvidia trades at a forward P/E of 45.6, compared to AMD at 44.8.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/9d04382deeaf88511a543723f8918910\" alt=\"NVDA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts.\" title=\"NVDA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts.\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"487\"/><span>NVDA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts.</span></p><p>With the valuations so similar, the question of which is the better stock to own going forward should come down to which company will perform better operationally over the next few years.</p><p>Working in AMD&#39;s favor is that its data center segment has a much smaller base, compared to Nvidia. As the smaller company, it has the opportunity to take market share away from Nvidia. If the company can become a viable second source of GPU chips, it should see a lot of continued growth in the segment.</p><p>Meanwhile, looking five years out, the company&#39;s gaming segment, which has been a big drag, should see a huge improvement starting in 2027 or 2028. Microsoft is reportedly planning to launch its next-generation gaming console in 2028, while Sony is expected to launch its PlayStation 6 console in 2027 or 2028.</p><p>Back in 2022, AMD revenue related to the Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5) was nearly $3.8 billion, representing 16% of its revenue. Console sales typically peak their third year after launch, and the PS5 was introduced in 2020.</p><p>Working in Nvidia&#39;s favor is the moat it has created with its CUDA platform. Developers have already learned on its platform, and it takes time and training to work with other GPUs, which costs money. This should allow the company to keep its lead.</p><p>Meanwhile, AMD has started rapidly pushing innovation by developing next-generation architecture GPU platforms that will be backward compatible with its existing architecture. This should help drive huge demand from customers looking to stay at the cutting edge of AI capabilities.</p><p>If AI is still in its early innings and the data center buildout is just beginning, then Nvidia is my preferred stock to buy between the two chipmakers, given the moat it has created. However, I think AMD could also be a very solid investment, especially ahead of a gaming console refresh cycle in the next few years.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Over the past five years, both stocks have been strong performers. AMD is up over 433% during that stretch, which is outstanding. However, that return pales in comparison to the over 3,000% gain in Nvidia's stock.Nvidia has been the better stock during the past five years, but which stock will likely outperform over the next five?Nvidia vs. AMDAt the moment, the buildout of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure benefits both companies, given the demand for the graphic processing units (GPUs) needed to power large language model (LLM) training and artificial intelligence (AI) inference. This insatiable demand for GPUs led Nvidia's data center segment to post $22.6 billion in fiscal 2025 Q1 revenue (for the quarter ending April 28, 2024), an incredible 427% year-over-year increase. AMD's data center segment, meanwhile, saw its fiscal 2024 first-quarter revenue soar more than 80% year over year to $2.3 billion.Nvidia has become the clear leader in the AI chip space, which can be seen with its data center segment generating nearly 10 times the amount of revenue that AMD's data center segment produced. The company's GPUs have become the primary ones used, due to its CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) software platform, which developers have long been trained on to program the chips. This, in turn, has helped create a wide moat for the company's GPUs, giving it more than about 80% market share.However, the segment is still growing nicely for AMD as its GPUs become an alternative to Nvidia's chips, which are in tight supply. Enterprises often like to have multiple suppliers so they don't become dependent on just one.AMD is making some inroads. Last month, Microsoft announced that it would offer clusters of AMD's MI300X chips through its Azure cloud computing service as a Nvidia alternative. In addition, AMD recently said it has had serious inquiries about building an AI cluster with over 1 million GPUs. Given that AI training clusters are typically built with a few thousand GPUs, this would be a huge win for AMD if it ever came to fruition.While Nvidia's results are dominated by its GPU products and data center segment, the data center only accounted for 43% of AMD's total revenue, while it was 87% of Nvidia's revenue. At the same time, some of AMD's other segments struggled, which led to total year-over-year revenue growth in the quarter of only 2%, compared to 262% for Nvidia.Which stock is the better buy?Despite Nvidia's strong stock performance, the two stocks actually trade at nearly identical forward price-to-earnings (P/E) valuations. Nvidia trades at a forward P/E of 45.6, compared to AMD at 44.8.NVDA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts.With the valuations so similar, the question of which is the better stock to own going forward should come down to which company will perform better operationally over the next few years.Working in AMD's favor is that its data center segment has a much smaller base, compared to Nvidia. As the smaller company, it has the opportunity to take market share away from Nvidia. If the company can become a viable second source of GPU chips, it should see a lot of continued growth in the segment.Meanwhile, looking five years out, the company's gaming segment, which has been a big drag, should see a huge improvement starting in 2027 or 2028. Microsoft is reportedly planning to launch its next-generation gaming console in 2028, while Sony is expected to launch its PlayStation 6 console in 2027 or 2028.Back in 2022, AMD revenue related to the Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5) was nearly $3.8 billion, representing 16% of its revenue. Console sales typically peak their third year after launch, and the PS5 was introduced in 2020.Working in Nvidia's favor is the moat it has created with its CUDA platform. Developers have already learned on its platform, and it takes time and training to work with other GPUs, which costs money. This should allow the company to keep its lead.Meanwhile, AMD has started rapidly pushing innovation by developing next-generation architecture GPU platforms that will be backward compatible with its existing architecture. This should help drive huge demand from customers looking to stay at the cutting edge of AI capabilities.If AI is still in its early innings and the data center buildout is just beginning, then Nvidia is my preferred stock to buy between the two chipmakers, given the moat it has created. However, I think AMD could also be a very solid investment, especially ahead of a gaming console refresh cycle in the next few years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":205,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956801962,"gmtCreate":1673948979257,"gmtModify":1676538907330,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's ok to have fantasies.

This was the closest that shares of the Cupertino company have been to the milestone.

This will probably be a longer-term initiative that is unlikely to move the share price meaningfully this year.A recovery in the services segment, which recently registered pitiful YOY revenue growth of only 5% (see chart below). Morgan Stanley once estimated that, due to the massive installed base combined with a very high lifetime value-to-customer acquisition cost ratio, Apple’s subscription business alone might be enough to push the share price beyond $200.Figure 2: Apple's services revenue growth since 2019.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":256,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9916384106,"gmtCreate":1664511439405,"gmtModify":1676537469205,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I mean if you believe someone else is going to create benchmark breaking&nbsp;SOC computers and highly integrated software/hardware phones, go ahead and sell.&nbsp;","listText":"I mean if you believe someone else is going to create benchmark breaking&nbsp;SOC computers and highly integrated software/hardware phones, go ahead and sell.&nbsp;","text":"I mean if you believe someone else is going to create benchmark breaking SOC computers and highly integrated software/hardware phones, go ahead and sell.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9916384106","repostId":"2271021710","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2271021710","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":1664495417,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2271021710?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-30 07:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock May Not Be a “Safe Haven” for Much Longer, Bank of America Warns in Downgrade","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2271021710","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Apple shares have beaten the S&P 500 so far in 2022, but analyst sees 'risk to this outperformance' ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Apple shares have beaten the S&amp;P 500 so far in 2022, but analyst sees &#39;risk to this outperformance&#39; heading into company&#39;s next fiscal year</p><p>Apple Inc. has beaten the broader technology industry this year, but a Bank of America analyst isn&#39;t sure that the stock can keep it up.</p><p>Analyst Wamsi Mohan downgraded Apple&#39;s stock <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">$(AAPL)$</a> to neutral from buy Thursday, writing that demand trends could worsen heading into the new fiscal year.</p><p>&#34;Shares have outperformed significantly [year to date]...and have been perceived as a relative safe haven,&#34; he wrote. &#34;However, we see risk to this outperformance over the next year, as we expect material negative [estimate] revisions driven by weaker consumer demand.&#34;</p><p>Apple shares have declined 20% so far this year, as the S&amp;P 500  has fallen 24% and as the S&amp;P Composite 1500 Information Technology sector has declined 31%.</p><p>The stock is down 4.91% in Thursday&#39;s session.</p><p>Mohan worries about potential weakness in the iPhone 14 cycle given the economic pressures on consumers, particularly in Europe.

Some investors believe this company is building the infrastructure for the future, while others believe Palantir&#39;s market potential is limited to government intelligence anddoes not really have a competitive advantage against competitors. Even more notable, the same investor could alternate between these two views. For example, Cathie Wood once believed in Palantir&#39;s potential and bought as much as 15 million shares. But since then, she has completely sold out her fund&#39;s holdings. What is going on? How should investors think about Palantir. This article should provide more clarity.</p><p>For reference, Palantir stock is down more than 70% from ATH. YTD, Palantir is down more than 46%, while over the same period, the S&amp;P 500 has lost only about 11%.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af9d1937b029ea7046d54454782db814\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"239\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p><b>More About Palantir</b></p><p>Arguably a key reason why investors have difficulties building an investment thesis around Palantir is that many actually do not really understand what Palantir does. This is understandable given that the company works, amongst others, with the US Special Forces and the CIA on secret projects.</p><p>In a nutshell, and somehow simplified,Palantir builds and markets an infrastructure that allows to aggregate and analyze large amounts of unstructured data. Or in other words, Palantir builds an operating system for data management on which users can layer interfaces and visualizations. This allows users to derive value-adding insights and support intelligence-driven decision making. That said, customers use the company&#39;s software to optimize production processes, consumer insights and marketing efforts, capital management and risk oversight.</p><p>For example, in the past Palantir has supported: the government with the planning and execution of special war operations; banks with scenario analysis and risk management during the financial crisis; the structured distribution of COVID-19 vaccines around the world to fight the epidemic.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b330c63a70d472c9062a1c0c227863cc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Palantir Q2 2022 Presentation</span></p><p><b>Palantir&#39;s Opportunity</b></p><p>Palantir&#39;s market opportunity definitely has the potential to capture a potential that could indicate FAANG potential. In 2020, Palantir said that its addressable market is valued at around $120 billion.According to IDC, the market for data management/analytics and business intelligence (or in other words &#39;edge computing&#39;) is estimated at about $250 billion in 2024. And while I have no research to support this, I argue that on the backdrop of accelerating enterprise digitalization, the metaverse innovation and a continued expansion of crypto, Palantir&#39;s market opportunity could be valued at a $1 trillion potential in 2030 (this would indicate about 25% CAGR until 2030)</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5059c99b7d668bc766ffa96f0681e120\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Palantir Q2 2022 Presentation</span></p><p>Reflecting on Palantir&#39;s market opportunity,Alex Karp said:</p><blockquote><i>We are working towards a future where all large institutions in the United States and its allies abroad are running significant segments of their operations, if not their operations as a whole, on Palantir.</i></blockquote><blockquote><i>Most other companies are targeting small segments of the market.</i></blockquote><blockquote><b><i>We see and intend to capture the whole.</i></b></blockquote><p><b>Palantir Valuation</b></p><p>Palantir is currently valued at a one-year forward EV/Sales of x9.6 and a Price/Free Cash Flow of almost x75. Accordingly, it is fair to say that PLTR is trading expensively. But investors should consider the valuation in relation to the company&#39;s accelerating business expansion.</p><p>Personally, I believe that Palantir&#39;s business could grow at a 25% CAGR for the next 7 years. Accordingly, the company&#39;s sales could reach about $12 billion in 2030. If we consider a net-profit margin of 28%, which is in line with asset-light software firms, Palantir&#39;s net income for 2030 could be as high as $3.3 billion. I believe a x25 P/E multiple for 2030 could be reasonable and so I see a market capitalization of $82.5 billion. (Assuming Palantir&#39;s net-debt position does not change)</p><p>An analyst may discount the $82.5 billion with a reasonable rate, which I anchor on 8%, and find that Palantir should be valued at about $48 billion today, or about $22.4/share.</p><p>Risks</p><p>Investing in Palantir is a speculation, as there is considerable uncertainty related to projecting a company&#39;s fundamentals for multiple years into the future. Moreover, the uncertainty surrounding Palantir&#39;s value proposition adds to the complexity. That said, there is no guarantee that the company will reach my estimated 2030 sales and profitability targets.</p><p>Investors should also consider that much of Palantir&#39;s current share price volatility is driven by investor sentiment towards stocks. Accordingly, investors should expect price volatility even though Palantir&#39;s business outlook remains unchanged.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>Arguably all FAANG companies have been controversial in their early days. It is the pre-condition of exploring a new market. Has Palantir the market and product potential to grow into a powerhouse that could rival the FAANGs? Personally, I do think so.

It is the pre-condition of exploring a new market.And few companies have been as controversial as Palantir, which is supported by the observation that the company works with the CIA and US spec ops.In a nutshell, Palantir builds and markets an infrastructure that allows to aggregate and analyze large amounts of unstructured data.Reflecting on enterprise digitalization, the metaverse and a expansion of crypto, Palantir's market opportunity in 2030 could be $1 trillion.In my opinion, Palantir is undervalued. My base-case target price is $22.4/share.Michael Vi/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesThesisFew companies are as controversial as Palantir (NYSE:PLTR). Some investors believe this company is building the infrastructure for the future, while others believe Palantir's market potential is limited to government intelligence anddoes not really have a competitive advantage against competitors. Even more notable, the same investor could alternate between these two views. For example, Cathie Wood once believed in Palantir's potential and bought as much as 15 million shares. But since then, she has completely sold out her fund's holdings. What is going on? How should investors think about Palantir. This article should provide more clarity.For reference, Palantir stock is down more than 70% from ATH. YTD, Palantir is down more than 46%, while over the same period, the S&P 500 has lost only about 11%.Seeking AlphaMore About PalantirArguably a key reason why investors have difficulties building an investment thesis around Palantir is that many actually do not really understand what Palantir does. This is understandable given that the company works, amongst others, with the US Special Forces and the CIA on secret projects.In a nutshell, and somehow simplified,Palantir builds and markets an infrastructure that allows to aggregate and analyze large amounts of unstructured data. Or in other words, Palantir builds an operating system for data management on which users can layer interfaces and visualizations. This allows users to derive value-adding insights and support intelligence-driven decision making. That said, customers use the company's software to optimize production processes, consumer insights and marketing efforts, capital management and risk oversight.For example, in the past Palantir has supported: the government with the planning and execution of special war operations; banks with scenario analysis and risk management during the financial crisis; the structured distribution of COVID-19 vaccines around the world to fight the epidemic.Palantir Q2 2022 PresentationPalantir's OpportunityPalantir's market opportunity definitely has the potential to capture a potential that could indicate FAANG potential. In 2020, Palantir said that its addressable market is valued at around $120 billion.According to IDC, the market for data management/analytics and business intelligence (or in other words 'edge computing') is estimated at about $250 billion in 2024. And while I have no research to support this, I argue that on the backdrop of accelerating enterprise digitalization, the metaverse innovation and a continued expansion of crypto, Palantir's market opportunity could be valued at a $1 trillion potential in 2030 (this would indicate about 25% CAGR until 2030)Palantir Q2 2022 PresentationReflecting on Palantir's market opportunity,Alex Karp said:We are working towards a future where all large institutions in the United States and its allies abroad are running significant segments of their operations, if not their operations as a whole, on Palantir.Most other companies are targeting small segments of the market.We see and intend to capture the whole.Palantir ValuationPalantir is currently valued at a one-year forward EV/Sales of x9.6 and a Price/Free Cash Flow of almost x75. Accordingly, it is fair to say that PLTR is trading expensively. But investors should consider the valuation in relation to the company's accelerating business expansion.Personally, I believe that Palantir's business could grow at a 25% CAGR for the next 7 years. Accordingly, the company's sales could reach about $12 billion in 2030. If we consider a net-profit margin of 28%, which is in line with asset-light software firms, Palantir's net income for 2030 could be as high as $3.3 billion. I believe a x25 P/E multiple for 2030 could be reasonable and so I see a market capitalization of $82.5 billion. (Assuming Palantir's net-debt position does not change)An analyst may discount the $82.5 billion with a reasonable rate, which I anchor on 8%, and find that Palantir should be valued at about $48 billion today, or about $22.4/share.RisksInvesting in Palantir is a speculation, as there is considerable uncertainty related to projecting a company's fundamentals for multiple years into the future. Moreover, the uncertainty surrounding Palantir's value proposition adds to the complexity. That said, there is no guarantee that the company will reach my estimated 2030 sales and profitability targets.Investors should also consider that much of Palantir's current share price volatility is driven by investor sentiment towards stocks. Accordingly, investors should expect price volatility even though Palantir's business outlook remains unchanged.ConclusionArguably all FAANG companies have been controversial in their early days. It is the pre-condition of exploring a new market. Has Palantir the market and product potential to grow into a powerhouse that could rival the FAANGs? Personally, I do think so. Or as CEO Karp commented:We believe that our most significant growth is still yet to comI estimate that the market for data analytics and business intelligence could grow at a 25% CAGR until 2025 and accordingly I see significant upside for Palantir's business. If my analysis is correct, Palantir is undervalued. My base-case target price is $22.4/share.What do you think, could Palantir be an equal to the FAANGs?This article was written by Cavenagh Research. This document is for reference only.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":312,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9046830194,"gmtCreate":1656325067318,"gmtModify":1676535806113,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Just... wait for the bottom before you go in.","listText":"Just... wait for the bottom before you go in.","text":"Just... wait for the bottom before you go in.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9046830194","repostId":"2246753313","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2246753313","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1656294307,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2246753313?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-27 09:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Should You Buy Tesla Stock Right Now?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2246753313","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"EV stocks have lost a lot of steam lately -- but Tesla is in a class of its own.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The electric vehicle (EV) market has been stumbling as investors shift much of their attention away from growth stocks and look for safer places to put their money.</p><p>But avoiding the EV market entirely could be a huge mistake, and ignoring <b>Tesla</b>&#39;s lead in the space could be an especially bad decision.

Its flagship product, the iPhone, is one of the most successful tech-based devices of all time.That popularity has helped make Apple stock successful and in demand for more than a decade now. But is the stock still a buy? There are undoubtedly opinions on both sides.Let's look at both sides of the argument and see if we can determine whether the bull case or the bear case wins the day on Apple stock.Bull case: Innovation spanning decadesThe decades of proven innovation are at the core of my bull case for Apple. The company has developed multiple iconic products that have generated billions of dollars in sales, and that ability is attractive to investors. The ability to keep coming up with something new that consumers want suggests that Apple can keep the revenue train rolling even when sales of its current lineup start to lose steam (something that is not yet the case with its current lineup).Annual revenue has gone from $156 billion a decade ago to $365 billion in the latest fiscal year. That growth boosted annual operating income from $55 billion to $109 billion over the same timeframe. The various iterations of the iPhone have fueled much of that surge and show no significant signs of slowing down.In Apple's most recent quarter, sales of the iPhone (now in its 13th iteration) increased from $47.9 billion in the prior year's quarter to $50.6 billion. The most recent update included the latest 5G technology, spurring higher-than-average upgrades from older models.Moreover, the popularity of the iPhone has allowed Apple to build a robust services business that complements the pioneering smartphone. The company boasts a whopping 825 million service subscribers, an increase of 165 million from last year. Its lineup includes Apple Music, Apple TV+, iCloud, Apple Fitness, and more. Note the gross margin on its services segment is 72.6%, while that of its products is 36.4%.Those 825 million subscribers are not only providing high-margin revenue to Apple, but are also prime candidates to buy its latest products. Once customers enter the Apple ecosystem and customize their products and services to their liking, they'll likely stick around long term.Bear case: Heavy dependence on iPhoneThe bear case concedes that Apple is a tremendously successful innovator with decades of proof. However, the case against investing in Apple centers around its iPhone dependence. While Apple has done an excellent job creating sought-after consumer electronics like the iPod, iPad, AirPods, Apple Watch, etc., it's still largely dependent on the iPhone.In its most recent quarter, the iPhone comprised 52% of the company's overall sales. That's not even including all the attachments that go along with it. The risk is that if Apple doesn't continue its iPhone success, revenue growth could stall or even reverse. Similarly, if another business creates a more attractive consumer electronic that unseats the iPhone, it could be disastrous for Apple.There are hints of wearable glasses that could be capable of everything a smartphone can do and more. Virtual-reality headsets are gaining in popularity alongside the metaverse. Innovation is unpredictable. For Apple to rely so heavily on one product for 52% of its sales adds a layer of risk to the business.The bulls win outOverall, the bull case carries more weight.

Since these changes offset, it&#39;s often said that stock splits don&#39;t matter. While this is true from a fundamental perspective, a company usually won&#39;t split its stock unless it&#39;s confident that the business will continue to perform well, and studies have shown that the average company that splits its stock tends to outperform in the short term.</p><p>There are other benefits to splitting a stock besides improving sentiment. For example, retail investors who don&#39;t have access to fractional shares or who prefer to invest through options (which can&#39;t be fractional) might be considering buying Amazon for the first time after its split. Having a lower price could also allow Amazon to be added to the price-weighted Dow index. These factors could improve the accessibility of Amazon stock and modestly push the price up by increasing demand.</p><h2>Reason 2: Valuation</h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/796ceba307889adfc0987aaac6df1db1\" tg-width=\"574\" tg-height=\"452\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p>Amazon has consistently done well in Seeking Alpha&#39;s factor grades when it comes to growth and profitability. Although momentum and positive revisions come and go, over the long term Amazon has been a very consistent performer. The sticking point for many investors has always been valuation, and Amazon currently gets an F for valuation.</p><p>At 59 P/E, Amazon is the most expensive of the mega cap tech companies, so the poor valuation grade makes sense at face value. However, Amazon has always been growth-oriented and has not focused on maximizing earnings in the past. That may be changing now, as Amazon has become extremely large, and its revenue growth has slowed noticeably.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7bde3be5ceeb029ab212467dcb3e2325\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"100\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p>According to Seeking Alpha, analysts expect EPS to grow very rapidly in the coming years, bringing Amazon to a low forward P/E of 11.66 by the end of 2027. This is 30-50% lower than the estimated P/E for comparable mega caps Apple (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) at that time, but slightly higher than that of Google (GOOG).</p><p>So, while Amazon&#39;s P/E looks high now, if analysts are correct then it will actually be one of the cheaper big tech companies by 2027 despite arguably having the most growth potential of these big four companies.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2746da1266ba76875887349324ed561a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"173\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>MacroTrends</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3bd57c137ea69bc2db3cd19785aad8de\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>MacroTrends</p><p>Amazon is also cheap relative to its historical valuation, as its P/E ratio has fallen to five-year lows. The less volatile P/S ratio has also fallen near a five-year low.</p><p>Because there are so many moving parts between e-commerce, AWS, and other initiatives, it&#39;s difficult to pinpoint an exact fair value for Amazon. However, the average analyst price target is $3570, Morningstar&#39;s target is $3850, and my own conservative target is $3110. These are all well above the pre-split price of $2447.</p><h2>Reason 3: AWS</h2><p>Although the e-commerce business has had some issues that I&#39;ll discuss later, AWS has continued to perform extremely well and still has a long runway for growth. Amazon&#39;s cloud services make their customers&#39; tech more reliable, more secure, easier to develop, and in many cases cheaper.</p><p>Profits in AWS are up 57% year over year and revenue is still growing above 30%. Even though e-commerce dominates Amazon&#39;s revenue and drops the overall company&#39;s top line growth to just 7%, cloud can and will dominate the bottom line, and in the end that&#39;s what matters. Thus, the 7% growth figure is very misleading since the bottom line has the potential to grow much faster than that as long as e-commerce doesn&#39;t detract from it.</p><p>I have cloud infrastructure as my highest conviction investment theme. While there are many ways to invest in this area, buying the leading public cloud company is certainly a good way to start.</p><h2>The Bear Case For AMZN Stock</h2><p>It&#39;s also worth considering some counterarguments to the bullish thesis.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/373c1d3cd205d91412a7a7ad55655c6c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>AMZN Quarterly Operating Income (MacroTrends)</p><p>The first is that even though Amazon&#39;s P/E ratio decreased in the past year, it hasn&#39;t all been due to higher operating income. While Amazon massively increased operating income starting around 2017, that trend reversed in 2021. Amazon&#39;s operating income last quarter was lower than the comparable quarter in pre-pandemic 2019, which is really abysmal. Amazon also posted negative free cash flow in 2021, after years of encouraging investors to look at cash flow rather than the bottom line.</p><p>This decline has been due to e-commerce rather than cloud, as Amazon stated in its recent earnings call that it built too much fulfillment capacity, harming the bottom line with unnecessary costs. This type of issue should be temporary, and it&#39;s been an industry-wide issue to some extent; Target (TGT) recently sold off harshly after admitting that it had too much inventory built up in more cyclical products. Other e-commerce companies like Shopify (SHOP) have seen their share prices crash even more than Amazon&#39;s. Even so, persistent issues like this make it difficult to trust new CEO Andy Jassy, as the company has yet to post a clean earnings beat since he took over:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d04e533f309535bcaa50942406e97c08\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"108\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p>Microsoft famously struggled for over a decade while Steve Ballmer was CEO, and while I&#39;d like to think that Jassy&#39;s success with AWS makes him highly qualified, there&#39;s still the potential for Amazon to experience a similar period of poor execution. After all, running the world&#39;s largest e-commerce website and cloud provider is not easy, and the skill sets needed for each business could be quite different. At nearly 60 P/E there could still be a long way to fall if the bottom line doesn&#39;t grow as quickly as analysts expect. Microsoft bottomed around 10 P/E.</p><p>Aside from these recent struggles, I previously covered other bearish arguments against Amazon such as its lack of shareholder friendly policies and its bad reputation with small businesses.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Despite poor e-commerce execution and noteworthy risks, I believe that the most likely outcome is that Amazon gets back on track in the coming years. The cloud business has continued to do very well, and there&#39;s no reason to doubt Jassy&#39;s competence there. The only question is on the e-commerce side, but none of the current issues look insurmountable and many issues are shared by other industry players.</p><p>Even accounting for the recent selloff, Amazon has still returned over 1000% in the last 10 years and has a strong track record going back more than two decades. Thanks to this success, Amazon is one of the largest companies in the world and has one of the highest weightings in the S&amp;P 500. Highly successful blue chips like Amazon tend to return to all-time highs eventually, so buying after a stock split at the lowest valuation in recent memory could present a great opportunity.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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 Reasons To Buy Amazon Stock After Its Stock Split</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 Reasons To Buy Amazon Stock After Its Stock Split\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-08 17:44 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4516742-3-reasons-buy-amazon-stock-after-stock-split><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>ThesisAmazon stock is a good buy now because its stock split could provide short term momentum, it has one of its lowest valuations in recent years, and AWS remains a great business with a lot of ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4516742-3-reasons-buy-amazon-stock-after-stock-split\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4554":"元宇宙及AR概念","BK4532":"文艺复兴科技持仓","BK4534":"瑞士信贷持仓","BK4507":"流媒体概念","BK4533":"AQR资本管理(全球第二大对冲基金)","BK4566":"资本集团","BK4524":"宅经济概念","BK4535":"淡马锡持仓","BK4527":"明星科技股","BK4559":"巴菲特持仓","BK4538":"云计算","BK4550":"红杉资本持仓","BK4579":"人工智能","BK4122":"互联网与直销零售","BK4503":"景林资产持仓","BK4551":"寇图资本持仓","BK4561":"索罗斯持仓","BK4581":"高盛持仓","AMZN":"亚马逊","BK4548":"巴美列捷福持仓"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4516742-3-reasons-buy-amazon-stock-after-stock-split","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2241079374","content_text":"ThesisAmazon stock is a good buy now because its stock split could provide short term momentum, it has one of its lowest valuations in recent years, and AWS remains a great business with a lot of growth left.Reason 1: The SplitStock splits decrease the share price of a company but increase its shares outstanding.

However, the average analyst price target is $3570, Morningstar's target is $3850, and my own conservative target is $3110. These are all well above the pre-split price of $2447.Reason 3: AWSAlthough the e-commerce business has had some issues that I'll discuss later, AWS has continued to perform extremely well and still has a long runway for growth. Amazon's cloud services make their customers' tech more reliable, more secure, easier to develop, and in many cases cheaper.Profits in AWS are up 57% year over year and revenue is still growing above 30%. Even though e-commerce dominates Amazon's revenue and drops the overall company's top line growth to just 7%, cloud can and will dominate the bottom line, and in the end that's what matters. Thus, the 7% growth figure is very misleading since the bottom line has the potential to grow much faster than that as long as e-commerce doesn't detract from it.I have cloud infrastructure as my highest conviction investment theme. While there are many ways to invest in this area, buying the leading public cloud company is certainly a good way to start.The Bear Case For AMZN StockIt's also worth considering some counterarguments to the bullish thesis.AMZN Quarterly Operating Income (MacroTrends)The first is that even though Amazon's P/E ratio decreased in the past year, it hasn't all been due to higher operating income. While Amazon massively increased operating income starting around 2017, that trend reversed in 2021. Amazon's operating income last quarter was lower than the comparable quarter in pre-pandemic 2019, which is really abysmal. Amazon also posted negative free cash flow in 2021, after years of encouraging investors to look at cash flow rather than the bottom line.This decline has been due to e-commerce rather than cloud, as Amazon stated in its recent earnings call that it built too much fulfillment capacity, harming the bottom line with unnecessary costs. This type of issue should be temporary, and it's been an industry-wide issue to some extent; Target (TGT) recently sold off harshly after admitting that it had too much inventory built up in more cyclical products. Other e-commerce companies like Shopify (SHOP) have seen their share prices crash even more than Amazon's. Even so, persistent issues like this make it difficult to trust new CEO Andy Jassy, as the company has yet to post a clean earnings beat since he took over:Seeking AlphaMicrosoft famously struggled for over a decade while Steve Ballmer was CEO, and while I'd like to think that Jassy's success with AWS makes him highly qualified, there's still the potential for Amazon to experience a similar period of poor execution. After all, running the world's largest e-commerce website and cloud provider is not easy, and the skill sets needed for each business could be quite different. At nearly 60 P/E there could still be a long way to fall if the bottom line doesn't grow as quickly as analysts expect. Microsoft bottomed around 10 P/E.Aside from these recent struggles, I previously covered other bearish arguments against Amazon such as its lack of shareholder friendly policies and its bad reputation with small businesses.ConclusionDespite poor e-commerce execution and noteworthy risks, I believe that the most likely outcome is that Amazon gets back on track in the coming years. The cloud business has continued to do very well, and there's no reason to doubt Jassy's competence there. The only question is on the e-commerce side, but none of the current issues look insurmountable and many issues are shared by other industry players.Even accounting for the recent selloff, Amazon has still returned over 1000% in the last 10 years and has a strong track record going back more than two decades. Thanks to this success, Amazon is one of the largest companies in the world and has one of the highest weightings in the S&P 500. Highly successful blue chips like Amazon tend to return to all-time highs eventually, so buying after a stock split at the lowest valuation in recent memory could present a great opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":361,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9051663388,"gmtCreate":1654685113644,"gmtModify":1676535491587,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I mean if you want to get washed out in a pump and dump by Goldman, go ahead","listText":"I mean if you want to get washed out in a pump and dump by Goldman, go ahead","text":"I mean if you want to get washed out in a pump and dump by Goldman, go ahead","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9051663388","repostId":"2241839291","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2241839291","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1654701621,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2241839291?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-08 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Sachs: Buy These 2 Stocks Before They Surge Over 40%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2241839291","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Uncertainty has been the name of the game in 2022.

A combination of negative macro developments – a slowing global economy, the geopolitical ramifications following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and - possibly most of all - the prospect of the Fed seriously tightening its monetary policy to combat inflation – have all been weighing heavily on investors’ minds.That doesn’t necessarily mean there aren’t good opportunities to take advantage of right now. The analysts at banking giant Goldman Sachs have pinpointed two names which have recently outperformed market expectations and which they believe are set to surge ahead even in the face of the unhospitable current environment – by the order of 40% or more.We ran both tickers through the TipRanks database to see what the rest of the Street has in mind for the pair. Let’s take a look at the findings.Pure Storage The first stock on Goldman Sachs' radar is Pure Storage, a provider of various data storage products. The company’s flash-based solutions come both in software and hardware form and are used in data centers. The company began by using third-party solid-state drives (SSDs) for its storage solutions. However, its own proprietary hardware soon replaced those SSDs and the company also brought into the market integrated deduplication, compression, and artificial intelligence software to help businesses conserve space and set up their devices properly.Pure Storage has formed a strong partnership with Meta, having assisted in the development of the initial version of its AI research infrastructure in 2017. Since then, the pair have continued working together and earlier this year the two began a collaboration on Meta's new AI Research SuperCluster (RSC), which Meta claims will be the fastest AI supercomputer in the world.Like most tech stocks, Pure has found 2022 hard going but that hasn’t stopped the company from delivering the goods in its latest quarterly report.In F1Q23, revenue rose by 50.3% year-over-year to reach $620.4 million, handily beating the $521.74 million Wall Street expected. Similarly, on the bottom-line, adj. EPS of $0.25 came in well above the $0.05 consensus estimate. The company delivered on the outlook too, expecting revenue of roughly $635 Million in FQ2 vs. consensus at $604.64 million. For the full year, sales are anticipated to reach $2.66 Billion. Analysts had that figure at $2.59 billion.Along with the company’s exemplary execution, it is the Meta collab which informs Goldman analyst Rod Hall’s bullish thesis.“We see this Meta opportunity as a strong revenue tailwind for Pure looking forward in FY’23. We also see ongoing strong results as an indication that Pure’s products are gaining an increasing following among enterprise and service provider customers,” the analyst opined. “At this point we see Pure’s supply management as superior to most other companies in our coverage in the IT hardware area.”The bullish comments underpin Hall’s Buy rating while his $50 price target makes room for one-year gains of 79%.Overall, PSTG has attracted a total of 10 analyst reviews recently, including 7 Buys and 3 Holds for a Moderate Buy consensus rating from the Street. PSTG shares are priced at $27.90 and have an average price target of $38, giving the stock a 36% upside on the one-year time frame.Lululemon Athletica From tech we will pivot over to an entirely different sector. Everyone knows Lululemon - the athleisure specialist. The company got its beginnings in 1998 as a yoga pants and other yoga clothing retailer, but has since evolved to include athletic wear, lifestyle clothes, personal care products and all manner of accessories. Lululemon now has over 570 stores spread across the globe while it has also built a strong online presence. In apparel, the company has been rated as the world's fourth most valuable brand.Lululemon was one of the Covid era stars as people stayed at home and slipped into more comfortable wear, while the company even managed to overcome the closure of physical stores by shifting sales online. While not immune to the market’s overall downturn, Lululemon appears to have managed well in the face of new challenges, namely the supply chain issues which have impacted so many in recent times. This was evident in the company’s latest earnings report - for F1Q22.Lululemon generated revenue of $1.6 billion, a 32% increase on the same period a year ago, while diluted EPS hit $1.48. Both were above the analysts’ forecast of $1.55 billion and $1.43, respectively. There was more good news for the outlook. For FQ2, Lululemon sees revenue coming in the range between $1.750 billion to $1.775 billion, above consensus of $1.73 billion. And the company also raised its revenue and EPS outlook for the full year.Surveying the print, Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach is thoroughly impressed. She writes, “We come away from the quarter with increased conviction in LULU’s strong brand engine fueled by innovation. While industry cost pressures are weighing on margin flow-through (where airfreight pressures have lowered full year margin outlook modestly), we continue to see this idiosyncratic growth story as well-positioned to navigate a tough backdrop as the company has meaningful pricing power, strong consumer connection, and less exposure to inflating AUCs (average unit cost).”Accordingly, Roach rates the stock a Buy, backed by a $456 price target. Going by this target, shares are expected to climb 48% higher over the one-year timeframe.Looking at the consensus breakdown, the majority of analysts are bullish on LULU's prospects, too; 19 Buys and 7 Holds add up to a Moderate Buy consensus rating. The average price target of $409.69 suggests upside of ~34% in the year ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9021748945,"gmtCreate":1653107010287,"gmtModify":1676535226129,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yup.

Are they right?","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>After joining the $1 trillion market capitalization club at the end of 2021, shares of electric vehicle (EV) juggernaut <b>Tesla</b> have shifted into reverse. Between macroeconomic headwinds like 40-year-high inflation, the Fed&#39;s consequent move to raise interest rates, and concerns about the war between Russia and Ukraine, the stock market has been in quite the frenzy.</p><p>Many high-growth stocks, Tesla included, have been humbled lately as investors seek protection by shifting their attention to value companies and safer assets. CEO Elon Musk&#39;s move to potentially acquire <b>Twitter</b> certainly hasn&#39;t aided the company&#39;s case, either. With uncertainty around whether or not the deal will actually close, investors have raced to dump shares of the EV leader.</p><p>But in terms of fundamentals, Tesla continues to look dominant. The company is rapidly expanding its business on all fronts and has strengthened its balance sheet and cash generation in the process. With the stock down almost 40% year to date, should investors pull the trigger on buying Tesla today?</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ecb47944e9c0966d2182e999d9a81cba\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Fundamentals aren&#39;t the problem</h2><p>In a quarter when investors weren&#39;t sure what to expect due to COVID-19-related shutdowns at Tesla&#39;s Shanghai factory, the EV leader delivered, and it delivered big. The company&#39;s $18.8 billion in total sales, which climbed 81% year over year, beat Wall Street expectations by $918 million. Likewise, its non-GAAP earnings per share of $3.22, equal to 246% growth, crushed consensus estimates by a whopping 42%.</p><p>To top off a record quarter, the Musk-led enterprise grew total production and vehicle deliveries by a respective 69% and 68%, producing 305,407 vehicles and delivering 310,048. Per management&#39;s guidance, investors can expect the company to achieve 50% average annual growth in deliveries over a multi-year time horizon. In fiscal 2022, analysts are modeling a top line and adjusted bottom line of $86.5 billion and $12.32/share, translating to robust year-over-year ascents of 61% and 82%, respectively.</p><p>Amid such incredible growth, the company&#39;s balance sheet and cash generation are equally thriving. In its latest quarter, the EV commander revealed that total debt excluding vehicle and energy product financing fell below $100 million. The company is manifesting the &#34;cash is king&#34; mantra as well: In the first quarter, free cash flow surged an astonishing 660% to $2.2 billion. Provided that the global EV market is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25% through 2028 to nearly $1 trillion, it could be said with exceedingly high confidence that Tesla is poised for more success in the coming years.</p><h2>Tesla&#39;s valuation is still high</h2><p>Even without context, though, Tesla&#39;s valuation is extremely high. The stock is trading at 98.2 times earnings at the moment, an extremely lofty multiple even post-correction.</p><p>Comparing the EV behemoth to other automobile manufacturers further underscores its expensive stock price. As seen in the below chart, competitors <b>General Motors </b>(GM 0.81%), <b>Ford</b> (F 0.55%), and <b>Toyota </b>(TM 0.26%) have price-to-earnings multiples of 6.2, 4.6, and 7.9, respectively. Whether or not Tesla deserves a premium valuation is a frequent debate among the bulls and the bears. However, it&#39;s rather indisputable that the EV stock is richly priced. It would take a major share price collapse for Tesla to truly be considered cheap.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4664e23d164238b9ae09f5957b8e89b9\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TSLA PE Ratio data by YCharts</span></p><h2>Should investors buy the stock now?</h2><p>Tesla&#39;s pullback has certainly grabbed my attention -- the company is the unequivocal pacesetter in the EV market, an industry that is still in the earlier innings of development.

Between macroeconomic headwinds like 40-year-high inflation, the Fed's consequent move to raise interest rates, and concerns about the war between Russia and Ukraine, the stock market has been in quite the frenzy.Many high-growth stocks, Tesla included, have been humbled lately as investors seek protection by shifting their attention to value companies and safer assets. CEO Elon Musk's move to potentially acquire Twitter certainly hasn't aided the company's case, either. With uncertainty around whether or not the deal will actually close, investors have raced to dump shares of the EV leader.But in terms of fundamentals, Tesla continues to look dominant. The company is rapidly expanding its business on all fronts and has strengthened its balance sheet and cash generation in the process. With the stock down almost 40% year to date, should investors pull the trigger on buying Tesla today?Image source: Getty Images.Fundamentals aren't the problemIn a quarter when investors weren't sure what to expect due to COVID-19-related shutdowns at Tesla's Shanghai factory, the EV leader delivered, and it delivered big. The company's $18.8 billion in total sales, which climbed 81% year over year, beat Wall Street expectations by $918 million. Likewise, its non-GAAP earnings per share of $3.22, equal to 246% growth, crushed consensus estimates by a whopping 42%.To top off a record quarter, the Musk-led enterprise grew total production and vehicle deliveries by a respective 69% and 68%, producing 305,407 vehicles and delivering 310,048. Per management's guidance, investors can expect the company to achieve 50% average annual growth in deliveries over a multi-year time horizon. In fiscal 2022, analysts are modeling a top line and adjusted bottom line of $86.5 billion and $12.32/share, translating to robust year-over-year ascents of 61% and 82%, respectively.Amid such incredible growth, the company's balance sheet and cash generation are equally thriving. In its latest quarter, the EV commander revealed that total debt excluding vehicle and energy product financing fell below $100 million. The company is manifesting the \"cash is king\" mantra as well: In the first quarter, free cash flow surged an astonishing 660% to $2.2 billion. Provided that the global EV market is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25% through 2028 to nearly $1 trillion, it could be said with exceedingly high confidence that Tesla is poised for more success in the coming years.Tesla's valuation is still highEven without context, though, Tesla's valuation is extremely high. The stock is trading at 98.2 times earnings at the moment, an extremely lofty multiple even post-correction.Comparing the EV behemoth to other automobile manufacturers further underscores its expensive stock price. As seen in the below chart, competitors General Motors (GM 0.81%), Ford (F 0.55%), and Toyota (TM 0.26%) have price-to-earnings multiples of 6.2, 4.6, and 7.9, respectively. Whether or not Tesla deserves a premium valuation is a frequent debate among the bulls and the bears. However, it's rather indisputable that the EV stock is richly priced. It would take a major share price collapse for Tesla to truly be considered cheap.TSLA PE Ratio data by YChartsShould investors buy the stock now?Tesla's pullback has certainly grabbed my attention -- the company is the unequivocal pacesetter in the EV market, an industry that is still in the earlier innings of development. That said, the company's valuation isn't exactly attractive yet, and it would take far more downward pressure to make the stock appear cheap. Investors should keep a close eye on Tesla moving forward, as there's surely a chance it'll continue on a downward path in the periods ahead.While it's a fantastic company and a sure winner in the EV space, I don't suggest buying the stock just yet. Take advantage of the recent tech sell-off and look for other companies that carry more enticing valuations today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":430,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9062597476,"gmtCreate":1652075284095,"gmtModify":1676535025079,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It doesn't matter if you're in it for the long haul.&nbsp;","listText":"It doesn't matter if you're in it for the long haul.&nbsp;","text":"It doesn't matter if you're in it for the long haul.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9062597476","repostId":"2233553871","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2233553871","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1652051868,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2233553871?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-09 07:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Amazon and Tesla Bounce Back With Their Upcoming Stock Splits?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2233553871","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Here's a prediction: Both Amazon and Tesla will rebound after stock splits this year.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>Shares of Amazon and Tesla have fallen significantly in recent months.</li><li>Planned stock splits hold the potential to serve as solid catalysts for both beaten-down stocks.</li><li>Amazon&#39;s and Tesla&#39;s underlying businesses are the core drivers for both stocks over the long term.</li></ul><p>Ugh.

This secretive machine learning and big data stock had become a household name and saw its shares triple from its initial debut - but unsurprisingly, Palantir has also become one of the biggest victims of the recent tech crash.</p><p>Relative to highs above $35, Palantir has now given up two-thirds of its value, the equivalent of about $50 billion in market cap. Year to date alone, Palantir stock has shed 35%. While even I can&#39;t argue that Palantir had run a little hot last year and was in need of a slight correction, as usual poor sentiment has taken the crash too far - leaving Palantir in very buyable territory.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eda4c8def524442f50bfb3d898f777d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>While Palantir has been one of the biggest holes in my portfolio this year, I remain <b>strongly bullish</b> on this stock and am invested for the long term. It&#39;s difficult to regard Palantir&#39;s venerable customer base, its best-of-breed series of both commercial and government products, and its visionary leadership and not conclude that Palantir will continue to dominate enterprise software over the next few decades.</p><p>There has been a lot of negativity around Palantir recently, but almost none of it is company-specific. It&#39;s all about de-risking portfolios and expensive valuations in the face of rising interest rates - which I view to be shorter-term arguments that don&#39;t in any way diminish the attractiveness of Palantir in the long run. This is a company that has claimed a $100+ billion TAM, with its main products each adding market opportunity and becoming behemoths in their own rights over time:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/141948bb2e1e997bb4c74ba8f9b93eeb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"350\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir TAM (Palantir Q4 investor deck)</p><p></p><p>Here&#39;s a rundown of the key pieces of the bullish thesis for Palantir:</p><ul><li><b>Big data is a massive discipline that can be applied in nearly limitless ways.</b> Palantir isn&#39;t a software company that serves only one or a limited set of use cases. Data and inferences that can be made from data are prevalent in just about everything: which explains why Palantir is such a powerful tool for both public and private sector clients.</li><li><b>Growth at scale.</b> Despite being at a ~$2 billion annual revenue scale, Palantir continues to deliver 30-40% y/y revenue growth, and its long-term outlook calls for the company to be able to sustain growth rates in excess of 30% y/y through at least 2025. Few companies are able to achieve this kind of growth at scale, and it&#39;s a testament to the wide applicability of Palantir&#39;s products and the humongous clientele it has drawn (in particular, the U.S. Army).</li><li><b>Stepping up go-to-market momentum.</b> Palantir is chasing growth across a wide variety of channels. The company has stepped up its sales hiring this year, a nod at the broad market opportunity it has and the need for more territory coverage. Palantir also has deepened relationships with ISVs (integrated service vendors) that can resell Palantir&#39;s products without its involvement and offer additional coverage that Palantir&#39;s direct sales force can&#39;t handle.</li><li><b>One foot in the public sector, one foot in private</b>. Palantir made its name on being a large federal government contractor, but its products are just as compelling to an enterprise segment that is growing ever more obsessed with the value of big data. Most software companies start off as primarily dealing with enterprise buyers, and then hopefully getting FedRAMP certification to sell into public sector clients later. Palantir did the reverse: but now, its momentum with Fortune 100 companies is continuing to grow, and customer adds are continuing to trend at an impressive pace.</li><li><b>Free cash flow. </b>Though not yet profitable from a GAAP standpoint, Palantir continues to exceed internal expectations for free cash flow, which means the business is self-financing (a departure from. many other rapid-growth software companies that continue to need to raise capital to finance their losses).</li></ul><p>Stay long here: Palantir is still a growth stock in the early days of becoming a tech mega-cap.</p><h2>Growth has sustained, thanks to commercial progress</h2><p>Palantir&#39;s original claim to fame, and the reason it attained its &#34;hush hush&#34; reputation in Silicon Valley, is that it was the software that helped the U.S. government track down Osama bin Laden. While Palantir made its reputation as a government contractor, and while government revenue and massive federal deals continue to forge the lion&#39;s share of Palantir&#39;s business, the company has been able to sustain its rapid growth rates primarily by boosting its commercial presence.</p><p>First, on overall growth: in Q4, Palantir&#39;s most recent quarter, the company grew revenue at a 34% y/y pace to $432.8 million, beating Wall Street&#39;s expectations of $418.1 million (+30% y/y) by a four-point margin. The Q4 earnings summary is shown below:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e512ff66f56152913be908f4d06cd3d2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"394\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir Q4 results (Palantir Q4 earnings release)</p><p></p><p>Helping to index the company&#39;s growth rate upward has been its progress on the enterprise side. Palantir describes its enterprise software product, Palantir Foundry, as a product that is now as essential to modern enterprises as Amazon AWS was to building cloud applications. Foundry is an OS (operating system) product that helps integrate data to power applications and has thousands of use cases across all industries.</p><p>In Q4, US commercial revenue growth <b>accelerated for the third straight quarter to 132% y/y growth</b>. And at the end of 2021, Palantir counted 80 enterprise customers. Now, you can read that number two ways: you can be impressed that it represents 371% y/y growth, but you can also imagine there is still ample room for expansion into the rest of the Fortune 500.</p><p>U.S. enterprise revenue now also comprises 13% of total revenue:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/abedba5c2813c73ae0c0d3644ca4cd7f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"352\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir US commercial revenue progression (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)</p><p></p><p>Yet the company is preparing for even more growth on the enterprise side. It entered into 2021 with a <b>very lean sales headcount, </b>having only 12 total salespeople focused on U.S. enterprises. In 2021 the company made deep strides on sales hiring, which is now up to 80 strong. More importantly, however, the company enters into 2022 with 25 tenured salespeople, more than quadruple the year-ago quarter: allowing Palantir to cover far more breadth this year than last.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/78ba646d08cb95ab32745b0088aa1b4c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"316\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir sales headcount expansion (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)</p><p></p><p>Hiring, and growth overall, remain top of mind for Palantir execs. Per CEO Alex Karp&#39;s remarks on the most recent earnings call:</p><blockquote>We&#39;re in the market to hire aggressively across Palantir, honestly, mostly not salespeople because we believe we live and die based on our ability to build products of tomorrow delivered today.</blockquote><blockquote>But we&#39;re hiring -- going to hire in the range of 200 people. Hiring and getting value out of them are two different things. And so I think one of the things that we will see going forward is how do we play these salespeople, so that we can get as much lift from them as we&#39;re getting from the product itself. And we&#39;re at the beginning of that. And so it is the part to people we&#39;ve fully indoctrinated or as normal people might say, trained, are effective, but we&#39;ve never done this before. There will be -- that&#39;s a process, we&#39;re also looking at ways to learn from other companies, but that&#39;s going to happen over the next couple of years.&#34;</blockquote><h2>Profitability has made huge leaps</h2><p>In spite of Palantir&#39;s clear focus on growth, though, we can look across the entire spate of Palantir&#39;s profitability metrics and see marked improvement. Earlier on in the company&#39;s public debut, investors questioned Palantir&#39;s large GAAP losses and concluded that this was, like any other tech company, one that focused on growth at all costs. Now, we&#39;re not so sure that argument is valid.</p><p>First, a look at GAAP margins. GAAP operating margin in Q4 hit a record-high -14%, up <b>thirty-five points </b>from -49% in the year-ago quarter:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0bd4d857bb5a7558834c288c2f12e8fc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"306\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir margin trends (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)</p><p></p><p>Similarly, adjusted EBITDA grew 13 points for the year FY21 to 32%, thirteen points better than in FY20:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58292146895f5be6ca2692c1d3d3c230\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"217\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir adjusted EBITDA (Palantir Q4 earnings release)</p><p></p><p>And lastly, Palantir generated $424.1 million in free cash flow in FY21, representing a rich 28% free cash flow margin - more than fifty points better than -25% in FY20.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acb7db7408229ac728bf88693bdf5b41\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"144\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir FCF (Palantir Q4 earnings release)</p><p></p><p>The chart below also showcases that, relative to many SaaS peers, Palantir&#39;s balance of growth plus FCF margin outranks most competitors:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/432fed690595b676258a807bc0427934\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"351\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir growth + FCF (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)</p><p></p><p>With this year&#39;s market landscape so focused on safety and profitability, Palantir&#39;s huge improvements on profitability have given investors <b>exactly </b>the remedy to one of their biggest concerns - and yet, the stock has still slid.</p><h2>Valuation and key takeaways</h2><p>At current share prices near $12, Palantir trades at a $25.17 billion market cap.

This secretive machine learning and big data stock had become a household name and saw its shares triple from its initial debut - but unsurprisingly, Palantir has also become one of the biggest victims of the recent tech crash.Relative to highs above $35, Palantir has now given up two-thirds of its value, the equivalent of about $50 billion in market cap. Year to date alone, Palantir stock has shed 35%. While even I can't argue that Palantir had run a little hot last year and was in need of a slight correction, as usual poor sentiment has taken the crash too far - leaving Palantir in very buyable territory.Data by YChartsWhile Palantir has been one of the biggest holes in my portfolio this year, I remain strongly bullish on this stock and am invested for the long term. It's difficult to regard Palantir's venerable customer base, its best-of-breed series of both commercial and government products, and its visionary leadership and not conclude that Palantir will continue to dominate enterprise software over the next few decades.There has been a lot of negativity around Palantir recently, but almost none of it is company-specific. It's all about de-risking portfolios and expensive valuations in the face of rising interest rates - which I view to be shorter-term arguments that don't in any way diminish the attractiveness of Palantir in the long run. This is a company that has claimed a $100+ billion TAM, with its main products each adding market opportunity and becoming behemoths in their own rights over time:Palantir TAM (Palantir Q4 investor deck)Here's a rundown of the key pieces of the bullish thesis for Palantir:Big data is a massive discipline that can be applied in nearly limitless ways. Palantir isn't a software company that serves only one or a limited set of use cases. Data and inferences that can be made from data are prevalent in just about everything: which explains why Palantir is such a powerful tool for both public and private sector clients.Growth at scale. Despite being at a ~$2 billion annual revenue scale, Palantir continues to deliver 30-40% y/y revenue growth, and its long-term outlook calls for the company to be able to sustain growth rates in excess of 30% y/y through at least 2025. Few companies are able to achieve this kind of growth at scale, and it's a testament to the wide applicability of Palantir's products and the humongous clientele it has drawn (in particular, the U.S. Army).Stepping up go-to-market momentum. Palantir is chasing growth across a wide variety of channels. The company has stepped up its sales hiring this year, a nod at the broad market opportunity it has and the need for more territory coverage. Palantir also has deepened relationships with ISVs (integrated service vendors) that can resell Palantir's products without its involvement and offer additional coverage that Palantir's direct sales force can't handle.One foot in the public sector, one foot in private. Palantir made its name on being a large federal government contractor, but its products are just as compelling to an enterprise segment that is growing ever more obsessed with the value of big data. Most software companies start off as primarily dealing with enterprise buyers, and then hopefully getting FedRAMP certification to sell into public sector clients later. Palantir did the reverse: but now, its momentum with Fortune 100 companies is continuing to grow, and customer adds are continuing to trend at an impressive pace.Free cash flow. Though not yet profitable from a GAAP standpoint, Palantir continues to exceed internal expectations for free cash flow, which means the business is self-financing (a departure from. many other rapid-growth software companies that continue to need to raise capital to finance their losses).Stay long here: Palantir is still a growth stock in the early days of becoming a tech mega-cap.Growth has sustained, thanks to commercial progressPalantir's original claim to fame, and the reason it attained its \"hush hush\" reputation in Silicon Valley, is that it was the software that helped the U.S. government track down Osama bin Laden. While Palantir made its reputation as a government contractor, and while government revenue and massive federal deals continue to forge the lion's share of Palantir's business, the company has been able to sustain its rapid growth rates primarily by boosting its commercial presence.First, on overall growth: in Q4, Palantir's most recent quarter, the company grew revenue at a 34% y/y pace to $432.8 million, beating Wall Street's expectations of $418.1 million (+30% y/y) by a four-point margin. The Q4 earnings summary is shown below:Palantir Q4 results (Palantir Q4 earnings release)Helping to index the company's growth rate upward has been its progress on the enterprise side. Palantir describes its enterprise software product, Palantir Foundry, as a product that is now as essential to modern enterprises as Amazon AWS was to building cloud applications. Foundry is an OS (operating system) product that helps integrate data to power applications and has thousands of use cases across all industries.In Q4, US commercial revenue growth accelerated for the third straight quarter to 132% y/y growth. And at the end of 2021, Palantir counted 80 enterprise customers. Now, you can read that number two ways: you can be impressed that it represents 371% y/y growth, but you can also imagine there is still ample room for expansion into the rest of the Fortune 500.U.S. enterprise revenue now also comprises 13% of total revenue:Palantir US commercial revenue progression (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)Yet the company is preparing for even more growth on the enterprise side. It entered into 2021 with a very lean sales headcount, having only 12 total salespeople focused on U.S. enterprises. In 2021 the company made deep strides on sales hiring, which is now up to 80 strong. More importantly, however, the company enters into 2022 with 25 tenured salespeople, more than quadruple the year-ago quarter: allowing Palantir to cover far more breadth this year than last.Palantir sales headcount expansion (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)Hiring, and growth overall, remain top of mind for Palantir execs. Per CEO Alex Karp's remarks on the most recent earnings call:We're in the market to hire aggressively across Palantir, honestly, mostly not salespeople because we believe we live and die based on our ability to build products of tomorrow delivered today.But we're hiring -- going to hire in the range of 200 people. Hiring and getting value out of them are two different things. And so I think one of the things that we will see going forward is how do we play these salespeople, so that we can get as much lift from them as we're getting from the product itself. And we're at the beginning of that. And so it is the part to people we've fully indoctrinated or as normal people might say, trained, are effective, but we've never done this before. There will be -- that's a process, we're also looking at ways to learn from other companies, but that's going to happen over the next couple of years.\"Profitability has made huge leapsIn spite of Palantir's clear focus on growth, though, we can look across the entire spate of Palantir's profitability metrics and see marked improvement. Earlier on in the company's public debut, investors questioned Palantir's large GAAP losses and concluded that this was, like any other tech company, one that focused on growth at all costs. Now, we're not so sure that argument is valid.First, a look at GAAP margins. GAAP operating margin in Q4 hit a record-high -14%, up thirty-five points from -49% in the year-ago quarter:Palantir margin trends (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)Similarly, adjusted EBITDA grew 13 points for the year FY21 to 32%, thirteen points better than in FY20:Palantir adjusted EBITDA (Palantir Q4 earnings release)And lastly, Palantir generated $424.1 million in free cash flow in FY21, representing a rich 28% free cash flow margin - more than fifty points better than -25% in FY20.Palantir FCF (Palantir Q4 earnings release)The chart below also showcases that, relative to many SaaS peers, Palantir's balance of growth plus FCF margin outranks most competitors:Palantir growth + FCF (Palantir Q4 investor presentation)With this year's market landscape so focused on safety and profitability, Palantir's huge improvements on profitability have given investors exactly the remedy to one of their biggest concerns - and yet, the stock has still slid.Valuation and key takeawaysAt current share prices near $12, Palantir trades at a $25.17 billion market cap. After netting off the $2.52 billion of cash on the company's most recent balance sheet, its enterprise value goes to $22.64 billion.Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts are calling for $2.01 billion in consensus revenue for the year FY22, representing 30% y/y growth (considering Karp has committed to \"at least\" 30% growth through FY25, it's highly likely that Palantir's actual growth for the year will land several points higher). Still, if we take that consensus at face value, Palantir trades at 11.3x EV/FY22 revenue - still not cheap by any measure, but less than half of Palantir's peak multiples in the mid-20s.I continue to view the current slide as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a transformational tech company that is still early on in its path to becoming a tech mega-cap. Stay long here, be patient, and wait for a rebound that I expect will be a swift upward shot.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9082018570,"gmtCreate":1650502153816,"gmtModify":1676534739232,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Where are the haters now?","listText":"Where are the haters now?","text":"Where are the haters now?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9082018570","repostId":"2229763289","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2229763289","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":1650495355,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2229763289?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-21 06:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Posts Record Profit, Q1 Sales Jump 81% despite Supply-Chain Disruptions","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2229763289","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Tesla Inc. late Wednesday reported another record quarter of sales and profit, blowing past Wall Street estimates even though it said its factories continue to run below capacity due to supply-chain p","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Tesla Inc. late Wednesday reported another record quarter of sales and profit, blowing past Wall Street estimates even though it said its factories continue to run below capacity due to supply-chain problems.</p><p>On a post-results call with investors, Chief Executive Elon Musk focused on some of the more futuristic endeavors for Tesla <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$(TSLA)$</a>, such as promising a new &#34;robotaxi&#34; vehicle in two years, and kept mum about his proposal to buy <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc.

The first generation of MSFT&#39;s augmented reality or AR headset, HoloLens 1 was introduced to the market in 2015. Microsoft subsequently introduced the second generation of HoloLens (or HoloLens 2) in 2019. It is important to note that HoloLens 2 sells for a few thousand dollars apiece, and the product is clearly targeting enterprises which differentiates it from cheaper (typically a few hundred dollars) AR headsets sold to consumers. The HoloLens 2 headset already has applications in multiple industries, where companies can save on costs and time using this device, as per the chart below.</p><p><b>HoloLens Is Already Used By Companies In Different Industries</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c543b8d0f33e26319eb2003cef7d3b1b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"254\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Also, Microsoft announced earlier at its yearly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IGN.AU\">Ignite</a> technology event in November 2021 that it is introducing &#34;Mesh for Microsoft Teams.&#34; At the event, MSFT highlighted that Mesh will allow people to participate virtually in meetings &#34;using personalized avatars and immersive spaces that can be accessed from any device, with no special equipment needed.&#34; In a nutshell, the integration of Mesh with Teams is really all about making mixed-reality meetings possible. First launched in 2017, business collaboration and group chat platform Microsoft Teams has been a big success for the company; it disclosed at its recent Q2 FY 2022 results briefing that &#34;90% of Fortune 500 companies used Teams Phone&#34; in the recent quarter. Demand for &#34;Mesh For Microsoft Teams&#34; will definitely grow with the rise of hybrid work, and it is noteworthy that Mesh is also compatible with HoloLens 2 as highlighted below.</p><p><b>Key Features Of Mesh</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/061c1985184eee7800e167d7f00f3699\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"204\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>I discuss about MSFT&#39;s most significant and recent investment in the metaverse in the subsequent section.</p><h2>Is Microsoft Investing In The Metaverse?</h2><p>Microsoft is investing in the metaverse, and the company&#39;s most recent move in that respect was its planned purchase of gaming company, Activision Blizzard announced in a press release dated January 18, 2022. MSFT stressed at its most recent quarterly investor call that this deal will help the company &#34;shape what comes next for gaming as platforms like the metaverse develop.&#34; The transaction is expected to be concluded by the end of FY 2023 (June 30, 2023), assuming that conditions precedent are fulfilled and the relevant regulatory approvals are secured.</p><p>As I noted in the preceding section of this article, MSFT has put in significant efforts to make headway in the enterprise metaverse with HoloLens 2 and Mesh For Meetings. The proposed Activision deal puts Microsoft in a good position to gain a strong foothold in the consumer metaverse as well.</p><p>A January 10, 2022 <i>Wired</i> article noted that &#34;the things that make the promise of a metaverse intriguing&#34; can already be found in &#34;online games&#34; like <i>World of Warcraft</i>, and highlighted that the metaverse represents &#34;a new way (for gaming companies) to brand their sprawl of digital products and services.&#34; Activision&#39;s flagship game, <i>World Of Warcraft</i>, is often seen to be an &#34;earlier version&#34; and &#34;preview&#34; of the future metaverse, and there are substantial synergies between Activision&#39;s games and Microsoft&#39;s ambitions to expand in the consumer metaverse.</p><p>In the next section, I touch on key metrics with respect to Microsoft&#39;s proposed acquisition in Activision which represents a key investment for the company in the consumer metaverse.</p><h2>MSFT Stock Key Metrics</h2><p>Microsoft outlined its expectations for the number of gamers worldwide to expand from around 3 billion now to 4.5 billion in the next nine years, as discussed at the company&#39;s M&amp;A investor call on January 18, 2022. MSFT emphasized at its M&amp;A briefing in mid-January that its &#34;vision of the metaverse is based on intersecting global communities rooted in strong franchises.&#34; In other words, Microsoft needs scale in gaming to build a consumer metaverse.</p><p>Activision boasted as many as 371 million monthly active users (versus a relatively more modest 25 million Microsoft Xbox Game Pass subscribers) as of the end of 2021, and it is estimated that Microsoft will become the &#34;third largest&#34; company in the gaming space behind only Sony (SONY) (OTCPK:SNEJF) and Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY) (OTCPK:TCTZF) assuming that the deal is successfully completed.</p><p>In summary, the success of Microsoft&#39;s proposed investment in Activision could determine if MSFT is able become a force in the consumer metaverse in the future.</p><h2>What Is Microsoft&#39;s Long-Term Outlook?</h2><p>A stock is a good investment, if the company&#39;s long-term growth prospects are not fully reflected in its valuations. In that respect, MSFT is not the best investment candidate.</p><p>Microsoft&#39;s revenue and normalized earnings per share are forecasted to grow by five-CAGRs of +15.1% and +19.4%, respectively for the FY 2022-2026 period as per <i>S&amp;P Capital IQ&#39;s</i> consensus estimates. Wall Street analysts also see MSFT&#39;s future ROEs falling in the low-30s to low 40s percentage range for the next five years.</p><p>MSFT&#39;s 30.5 times consensus forward next twelve months&#39; normalized P/E appears to be largely consistent with the company&#39;s expected top line expansion, ROEs and earnings growth going forward. In other words, I don&#39;t see any indicators that MSFT is mispriced.</p><p>With regards to the metaverse, it is reasonably safe to assume that the sell-side has not incorporated much of the potential upside relating to the metaverse into the financial forecasts for MSFT or its peers. It is widely accepted by investors and companies that while the metaverse holds a lot of promise in the long term, there is no guarantee that the metaverse investment theme won&#39;t fizzle out just like other technology trends in the past.</p><p>As an illustration, Meta Platforms, arguably the company most bullish (considering its corporate name change) on the future of the metaverse, has also expressed its views that it is ready to pivot if things don&#39;t work as planned. FB mentioned at the 2022 <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a> (MS) Technology, Media and Telecom Conference in March that it &#34;can moderate them over time&#34; assuming it is &#34;less successful.&#34; Specifically, Meta Platforms is saying that if investments in any particular growth area (which could be referring to the metaverse and other investment opportunities) don&#39;t work out well, it is willingly to allocate capital elsewhere.</p><p>In conclusion, MSFT&#39;s outlook is good but largely priced in. At the same time, it will be too aggressive to expect significant revenue or earnings accretion from the metaverse theme.</p><h2>Is MSFT Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?</h2><p>MSFT is a Hold. In my earlier March 17, 2022 update, I rated Microsoft as a Hold &#34;after I weighed the pros and cons of a potential investment in the stock and assessed its valuations using different approaches.&#34; My views have remained unchanged. Microsoft&#39;s investments in the metaverse represent call options, and there could be upside to the company&#39;s financial forecasts and valuations if the metaverse turns out to be a much bigger growth opportunity than what is expected. But as it stands now, Microsoft&#39;s valuations are fair and deserving of a Hold rating.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Is Microsoft A Good Metaverse Stock?

The HoloLens 2 headset already has applications in multiple industries, where companies can save on costs and time using this device, as per the chart below.HoloLens Is Already Used By Companies In Different IndustriesAlso, Microsoft announced earlier at its yearly Ignite technology event in November 2021 that it is introducing \"Mesh for Microsoft Teams.\" At the event, MSFT highlighted that Mesh will allow people to participate virtually in meetings \"using personalized avatars and immersive spaces that can be accessed from any device, with no special equipment needed.\" In a nutshell, the integration of Mesh with Teams is really all about making mixed-reality meetings possible. First launched in 2017, business collaboration and group chat platform Microsoft Teams has been a big success for the company; it disclosed at its recent Q2 FY 2022 results briefing that \"90% of Fortune 500 companies used Teams Phone\" in the recent quarter. Demand for \"Mesh For Microsoft Teams\" will definitely grow with the rise of hybrid work, and it is noteworthy that Mesh is also compatible with HoloLens 2 as highlighted below.Key Features Of MeshI discuss about MSFT's most significant and recent investment in the metaverse in the subsequent section.Is Microsoft Investing In The Metaverse?Microsoft is investing in the metaverse, and the company's most recent move in that respect was its planned purchase of gaming company, Activision Blizzard announced in a press release dated January 18, 2022. MSFT stressed at its most recent quarterly investor call that this deal will help the company \"shape what comes next for gaming as platforms like the metaverse develop.\" The transaction is expected to be concluded by the end of FY 2023 (June 30, 2023), assuming that conditions precedent are fulfilled and the relevant regulatory approvals are secured.As I noted in the preceding section of this article, MSFT has put in significant efforts to make headway in the enterprise metaverse with HoloLens 2 and Mesh For Meetings. The proposed Activision deal puts Microsoft in a good position to gain a strong foothold in the consumer metaverse as well.A January 10, 2022 Wired article noted that \"the things that make the promise of a metaverse intriguing\" can already be found in \"online games\" like World of Warcraft, and highlighted that the metaverse represents \"a new way (for gaming companies) to brand their sprawl of digital products and services.\" Activision's flagship game, World Of Warcraft, is often seen to be an \"earlier version\" and \"preview\" of the future metaverse, and there are substantial synergies between Activision's games and Microsoft's ambitions to expand in the consumer metaverse.In the next section, I touch on key metrics with respect to Microsoft's proposed acquisition in Activision which represents a key investment for the company in the consumer metaverse.MSFT Stock Key MetricsMicrosoft outlined its expectations for the number of gamers worldwide to expand from around 3 billion now to 4.5 billion in the next nine years, as discussed at the company's M&A investor call on January 18, 2022. MSFT emphasized at its M&A briefing in mid-January that its \"vision of the metaverse is based on intersecting global communities rooted in strong franchises.\" In other words, Microsoft needs scale in gaming to build a consumer metaverse.Activision boasted as many as 371 million monthly active users (versus a relatively more modest 25 million Microsoft Xbox Game Pass subscribers) as of the end of 2021, and it is estimated that Microsoft will become the \"third largest\" company in the gaming space behind only Sony (SONY) (OTCPK:SNEJF) and Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY) (OTCPK:TCTZF) assuming that the deal is successfully completed.In summary, the success of Microsoft's proposed investment in Activision could determine if MSFT is able become a force in the consumer metaverse in the future.What Is Microsoft's Long-Term Outlook?A stock is a good investment, if the company's long-term growth prospects are not fully reflected in its valuations. In that respect, MSFT is not the best investment candidate.Microsoft's revenue and normalized earnings per share are forecasted to grow by five-CAGRs of +15.1% and +19.4%, respectively for the FY 2022-2026 period as per S&P Capital IQ's consensus estimates. Wall Street analysts also see MSFT's future ROEs falling in the low-30s to low 40s percentage range for the next five years.MSFT's 30.5 times consensus forward next twelve months' normalized P/E appears to be largely consistent with the company's expected top line expansion, ROEs and earnings growth going forward. In other words, I don't see any indicators that MSFT is mispriced.With regards to the metaverse, it is reasonably safe to assume that the sell-side has not incorporated much of the potential upside relating to the metaverse into the financial forecasts for MSFT or its peers. It is widely accepted by investors and companies that while the metaverse holds a lot of promise in the long term, there is no guarantee that the metaverse investment theme won't fizzle out just like other technology trends in the past.As an illustration, Meta Platforms, arguably the company most bullish (considering its corporate name change) on the future of the metaverse, has also expressed its views that it is ready to pivot if things don't work as planned. FB mentioned at the 2022 Morgan Stanley (MS) Technology, Media and Telecom Conference in March that it \"can moderate them over time\" assuming it is \"less successful.\" Specifically, Meta Platforms is saying that if investments in any particular growth area (which could be referring to the metaverse and other investment opportunities) don't work out well, it is willingly to allocate capital elsewhere.In conclusion, MSFT's outlook is good but largely priced in. At the same time, it will be too aggressive to expect significant revenue or earnings accretion from the metaverse theme.Is MSFT Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?MSFT is a Hold. In my earlier March 17, 2022 update, I rated Microsoft as a Hold \"after I weighed the pros and cons of a potential investment in the stock and assessed its valuations using different approaches.\" My views have remained unchanged. Microsoft's investments in the metaverse represent call options, and there could be upside to the company's financial forecasts and valuations if the metaverse turns out to be a much bigger growth opportunity than what is expected. But as it stands now, Microsoft's valuations are fair and deserving of a Hold rating.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":163,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9015915756,"gmtCreate":1649408289915,"gmtModify":1676534507483,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yessss","listText":"Yessss","text":"Yessss","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9015915756","repostId":"1127830489","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1127830489","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1649405333,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127830489?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-08 16:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Shares Jumped 1.6% in Premarket Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127830489","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Tesla Shares Jumped 1.6% in Premarket Trading.Elon Musk threw an elaborate party for more than 15,00","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Tesla Shares Jumped 1.6% in Premarket Trading.</p><p>Elon Musk threw an elaborate party for more than 15,000 people Thursday night in the U.S. to celebrate Giga Texas, Tesla Inc.’s newest factory in Austin, Texas, and the company’s rapid expansion.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cdd6730eabc4c564cf8f3c88479551be\" tg-width=\"862\" tg-height=\"664\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>The “Cyber Rodeo” featured art installations including a Tesla coil, multiple stages and a sea of Texas-made Model Y sport utility vehicles, arranged to look like the Texas state flag.

We continue to see hikes in March, June, and September, and have now added a hike in December.”In its December meeting minutes, Fed officials signaled they are preparing to move quicker than the last time they tightened monetary policy in a bid to keep the U.S. economy from overheating amid high inflation and near-full employment. These conditions -- along with a larger balance sheet that’s suppressing longer-term borrowing costs -- “could warrant a potentially faster pace of policy rate normalization,” the minutes said.Officials also saw the timing of reducing the $8.8 trillion balance sheet as likely “closer to that of policy-rate liftoff than in the committee’s previous experience,” according to the minutes.The U.S. unemployment rate fell below 4% and wages jumped last month, adding to evidence of a tight labor market.Goldman’s forecast for the terminal funds rate in unchanged at 2.5%-2.75%.“Even with four hikes, our path for the funds rate is only modestly above market pricing for 2022, but the gap grows significantly in subsequent years,” Hatzius wrote.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956801962,"gmtCreate":1673948979257,"gmtModify":1676538907330,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's ok to have fantasies.

But they have been down 10% this year, in line with the broader market, as investors reconsider stocks that have soared during the pandemic and shift funds toward safer assets.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b9aae61d17bfaf1ba4c776a3135dc67c\" tg-width=\"842\" tg-height=\"619\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>The record results for the quarter ended Dec. 25 reflected what analysts have described as Apple taking advantage of its incredible size. The company, which has more than 1.8 billion active devices in the market, has been able to squeeze suppliers and manufacturers to produce big quantities of iPhones and other devices despite shortages brought on by the pandemic and most recently the Omicron variant.</p><p>&#34;They&#39;ve navigated the supply chain better than everybody, and it&#39;s showing in the results,&#34; said Ryan Reith, who studies the smartphone market for industry tracker IDC.</p><p>Demand during the holiday quarter outstripped supply in line with Apple&#39;s expectations, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri told Reuters in an interview, noting that the effect was more than $6 billion in lost sales. But he said constraints would decrease in the current quarter, ending in March.</p><p>&#34;The level of constraint will depend a lot on other companies, what will be the demand for chips from other companies and other industries. It&#39;s difficult for us to predict, so we try to focus on the short term,&#34; he said.</p><p>With few rival phones debuting in the holiday shopping season, the iPhone 13, which started shipping days before the quarter began, led to worldwide phone sales revenue for Apple of $71.6 billion, a 9% increase from the 2020 holiday season that handily beat Wall Street targets, according to Refinitiv data.</p><p>Apple&#39;s smartphone market share in China reached a record 23% in the holiday quarter, when it was the top-selling vendor there for the first time in six years, research firm Counterpoint Research reported on Wednesday.</p><p>The company&#39;s overall fiscal first-quarter revenue was $123.9 billion, 11% up from last year and higher than analysts&#39; average estimate of $118.7 billion. Profit was $34.6 billion, or $2.10 per share, compared with analysts&#39; expectations of $31 billion and $1.89 per share.</p><p>The pandemic has accelerated adoption of digital tools for communication, learning and entertainment, powering Apple to blowout sales across each of the company&#39;s segments, including computers, accessories and tablets.</p><p>Apple&#39;s services business, which covers paid apps such as Apple TV+, Apple Music and Apple Fitness, also has seen a big bump. Services revenue rose 24% to $19.5 billion, topping analysts&#39; estimates of $18.6 billion. The company has 785 million paying subscribers across its offerings, an increase from 620 million a year ago and 745 million last quarter.</p><p>Sales for iPads fell 14% to $7.25 billion compared with analyst estimates of $8.2 billion, seeming to confirm industry predictions that iPads would have low priority for any scarce parts.</p><p>Sales for Macs rose 25% to $10.9 billion compared with estimates of $9.5 billion, and sales for accessories rose 13% to $14.7 billion compared with estimates of $14.6 billion.</p><p>For investors, the growing services business is helping mitigate production challenges.

I don&#39;t see any good reason or justification for the sell-off as Palantir will continue to grow its top line rapidly and new service offerings are set to fuel the firm&#39;s commercial growth. That Palantir is overvalued, is a myth!</p><p><b>Commercial revenue growth could accelerate as new products launch</b></p><p>There are few industries that have as fantastic growth prospects as the big data and analytics industry. Companies are accumulating more and more data from customers and their operations, requiring software solutions and artificial intelligence support to monetize this data most efficiently.</p><p>What am I most excited about, as a Palantir investor, is Palantir&#39;s opening of a new growth frontier in the big data world. Palantir will start to roll out its &#34;Foundry for Crypto&#34; in FY 2022 which offers banks, FinTechs and other companies involved in the crypto economy a way to validate customer information and to implement anti-money laundering tools. Since the crypto universe is still highly unregulated, Palantir&#39;s Foundry for Crypto could make a big difference in legitimizing this industry.</p><p>Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are here to stay and Palantir has a huge opportunity at its hands to develop a multi-million-dollar revenue business within a very short period of time. Key customers for Palantir&#39;s Foundry for Crypto are likely going to be financial institutions and crypto trading marketplaces like Coinbase (COIN) which have massive customer bases. Adoption of Palantir&#39;s Foundry for Crypto platform by leading market institutions could materially accelerate Palantir&#39;s commercial revenue growth.</p><p>Because of the opening of a new business segment, I see strong prospects for revenue acceleration for Palantir in the foreseeable future. Palantir&#39;s commercial revenue growth accelerated throughout FY 2021 due to strong customer acquisition and growing adoption of the firm&#39;s products and services. Palantir&#39;s commercial revenue growth accelerated from 19% in Q1&#39;21 to 28% in Q2&#39;21, and then to 37% in Q3&#39;21. Palantir&#39;s revenue acceleration in the commercial business was the reason why Palantir raised its free cash flow and revenue guidance for FY 2021. Because the commercial segment is growing increasingly fast, Palantir already raised its free cash flow outlook twice in FY 2021. The firm now expects free cash flow of $400M+ for FY 2021, after raising the guidance by 33% in Q3&#39;21.</p><p><b>Palantir is not overvalued based on expected free cash flow ramp</b></p><p>Palantir&#39;s business reached a critical point in FY 2021 and the proof is in the company&#39;s growing free cash flow margins. As the firm scales its services and leads more customers through its onboarding process, Palantir should see a significant improvement of its free cash flow margin going forward. Palantir&#39;s Q3&#39;21 free cash flow was $119M which calculates to a free cash flow margin of 30%. I believe Palantir could grow its free cash flow margin to 40% by 2025, meaning the firm is set to become a seriously profitable business within the next four years.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5e54fb7120d0b51650400b5081ae56a9\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>I also expect Palantir to grow revenues faster than the 30% that have been mentioned as a long-term growth target. The reason for this is that Palantir is signing on more customers and those customers spend more money on the firm&#39;s products and services over time, meaning monetization is improving. Assuming that Palantir can grow revenues at an annual 35% rate over the next four years, Palantir is looking at $5.0B in revenues and $2.0B in free cash flow by FY 2025. The calculation below is built on the assumption that Palantir&#39;s free cash flow margin will grow from 30% in FY 2021 to 40% by FY 2025. Over the next four years, Palantir should be able to increase its annual free cash flow by at least a factor of 4 X.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/48214b624573bdb844c741431b6fac4e\" tg-width=\"599\" tg-height=\"163\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>And investors should not forget about this potentially massive income stream…</p><p><b>The &#34;forgotten&#34; SPAC business</b></p><p>Palantir has come up with a clever revenue growth strategy that combines upside in SPAC investments with long-term software servicing contracts. Palantir is committing investing capital to startups that look to finance growth and, in return, the company gets equity and a signed contract for the provision of its software platforms. I rarely see this business discussed, but it presents considerable valuation upside for Palantir. In Q3&#39;21, the firm&#39;s total investments in startups summarized to $226.5M. Palantir only needs one big exit from one of these SPAC investments listed below to generate a massive windfall.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c452699a2b9ef7ab9b9b5f16074fd788\" tg-width=\"935\" tg-height=\"315\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><b>Risks with Palantir</b></p><p>The biggest risk for shares of Palantir, as I see it, is continual selling pressure that is the result of a profound misunderstanding related to how the firm&#39;s business model works in practice. Palantir&#39;s business is evolving and progress is measurable and undeniable. The proof is in Palantir&#39;s improving free cash flow margin and accelerating (commercial) revenue growth. Revenues can only accelerate if more companies adopt Palantir&#39;s services. Customers are also growing their platform spend, meaning each customer that signs with Palantir is going to have a higher value for the firm in the future, unless they cancel their relationship of course. Since the business had a net customer add of 34 in Q3&#39;21, there is no evidence that customers are unhappy with the services they receive.

I don't see any good reason or justification for the sell-off as Palantir will continue to grow its top line rapidly and new service offerings are set to fuel the firm's commercial growth. That Palantir is overvalued, is a myth!Commercial revenue growth could accelerate as new products launchThere are few industries that have as fantastic growth prospects as the big data and analytics industry. Companies are accumulating more and more data from customers and their operations, requiring software solutions and artificial intelligence support to monetize this data most efficiently.What am I most excited about, as a Palantir investor, is Palantir's opening of a new growth frontier in the big data world. Palantir will start to roll out its \"Foundry for Crypto\" in FY 2022 which offers banks, FinTechs and other companies involved in the crypto economy a way to validate customer information and to implement anti-money laundering tools. Since the crypto universe is still highly unregulated, Palantir's Foundry for Crypto could make a big difference in legitimizing this industry.Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are here to stay and Palantir has a huge opportunity at its hands to develop a multi-million-dollar revenue business within a very short period of time. Key customers for Palantir's Foundry for Crypto are likely going to be financial institutions and crypto trading marketplaces like Coinbase (COIN) which have massive customer bases. Adoption of Palantir's Foundry for Crypto platform by leading market institutions could materially accelerate Palantir's commercial revenue growth.Because of the opening of a new business segment, I see strong prospects for revenue acceleration for Palantir in the foreseeable future. Palantir's commercial revenue growth accelerated throughout FY 2021 due to strong customer acquisition and growing adoption of the firm's products and services. Palantir's commercial revenue growth accelerated from 19% in Q1'21 to 28% in Q2'21, and then to 37% in Q3'21. Palantir's revenue acceleration in the commercial business was the reason why Palantir raised its free cash flow and revenue guidance for FY 2021. Because the commercial segment is growing increasingly fast, Palantir already raised its free cash flow outlook twice in FY 2021. The firm now expects free cash flow of $400M+ for FY 2021, after raising the guidance by 33% in Q3'21.Palantir is not overvalued based on expected free cash flow rampPalantir's business reached a critical point in FY 2021 and the proof is in the company's growing free cash flow margins. As the firm scales its services and leads more customers through its onboarding process, Palantir should see a significant improvement of its free cash flow margin going forward. Palantir's Q3'21 free cash flow was $119M which calculates to a free cash flow margin of 30%. I believe Palantir could grow its free cash flow margin to 40% by 2025, meaning the firm is set to become a seriously profitable business within the next four years.I also expect Palantir to grow revenues faster than the 30% that have been mentioned as a long-term growth target. The reason for this is that Palantir is signing on more customers and those customers spend more money on the firm's products and services over time, meaning monetization is improving. Assuming that Palantir can grow revenues at an annual 35% rate over the next four years, Palantir is looking at $5.0B in revenues and $2.0B in free cash flow by FY 2025. The calculation below is built on the assumption that Palantir's free cash flow margin will grow from 30% in FY 2021 to 40% by FY 2025. Over the next four years, Palantir should be able to increase its annual free cash flow by at least a factor of 4 X.And investors should not forget about this potentially massive income stream…The \"forgotten\" SPAC businessPalantir has come up with a clever revenue growth strategy that combines upside in SPAC investments with long-term software servicing contracts. Palantir is committing investing capital to startups that look to finance growth and, in return, the company gets equity and a signed contract for the provision of its software platforms. I rarely see this business discussed, but it presents considerable valuation upside for Palantir. In Q3'21, the firm's total investments in startups summarized to $226.5M. Palantir only needs one big exit from one of these SPAC investments listed below to generate a massive windfall.Risks with PalantirThe biggest risk for shares of Palantir, as I see it, is continual selling pressure that is the result of a profound misunderstanding related to how the firm's business model works in practice. Palantir's business is evolving and progress is measurable and undeniable. The proof is in Palantir's improving free cash flow margin and accelerating (commercial) revenue growth. Revenues can only accelerate if more companies adopt Palantir's services. Customers are also growing their platform spend, meaning each customer that signs with Palantir is going to have a higher value for the firm in the future, unless they cancel their relationship of course. Since the business had a net customer add of 34 in Q3'21, there is no evidence that customers are unhappy with the services they receive. Palantir's total customer base increased at a massive 20% rate quarter over quarter in Q3'21, proving significant momentum in customer sign-ups.I am willing to change my opinion on Palantir if the firm's actual revenue growth rates and free cash flow margins drop below my estimates.Final thoughtsBased off of free cash flow estimates, which do not include pay-offs from SPAC divestments, shares of Palantir trade at 16 X FY 2025 projected free cash flow, assuming a 10 PP FCF margin improvement in the next four years. This margin improvement could result from the launch of new high-margin products like Foundry for Crypto, the accelerating roll-out of Foundry for Builders and higher product spend on a per-customer basis. It is a myth that Palantir is overvalued and the stock has considerable rebound potential in FY 2022!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":265,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9007856279,"gmtCreate":1642838499290,"gmtModify":1676533751785,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"PLTR is making profit hand over fist.

Snap</h2><p>Snap was once my favorite social media stock. It generated robust growth in daily active users and revenue, it remained a top app for teen users, and its profitability was gradually improving.</p><p>But over the past year, several red flags appeared. It vastly underestimated the impact of<b> Apple</b>&#39;s privacy update on iOS, set unrealistic growth targets at its investor day last February, and failed to outshine <b>ByteDance</b>&#39;s TikTok with Spotlight&#39;s short videos.</p><p>Snap&#39;s third-quarter numbers and fourth-quarter guidance last October strongly suggested it couldn&#39;t achieve its investor day target for 50% annual revenue growth over the next few years. But Snap didn&#39;t withdraw that guidance -- even after directly being questioned about it during its conference call -- and said it could retool its ads to overcome Apple&#39;s iOS changes.</p><p>Over the past three months, Snap&#39;s insiders still sold 22 times as many shares as they bought -- even as the stock price dropped more than 50%.

Unfortunately, I think Snap could continue to struggle over the next few quarters and ultimately withdraw its 50% revenue growth guidance. When that happens, the stock will likely plummet to new lows.</p><h2>2. Palantir</h2><p>Palantir, the data analytics firm which serves the U.S. government and large enterprise customers, also has ambitious growth plans. It believes it can generate at least 30% annual revenue growth from 2021 to 2025.</p><p>At first glance, Palantir seems like a solid investment. The U.S. Army reportedly used its Gotham platform to hunt down Osama Bin Laden in 2011. That battle-hardened reputation enables it to promote its enterprise-facing Foundry platform to large companies. Its ability to gather data from disparate sources can help government agencies and companies make better data-driven decisions to streamline their operations.</p><p>But Palantir also has some glaring problems. It&#39;s deeply unprofitable but still trades at 15 times next year&#39;s sales, which leaves it highly exposed to rising inflation and higher interest rates. It&#39;s also constantly diluting its shares with big stock bonuses -- in the first nine months of 2021, its number of weighted-average shares jumped 165% year over year.</p><p>The growth of Gotham is also decelerating as the U.S. government quietly develops in-house alternatives. Enterprise customers could also gravitate toward other analytics services, such as <b>Alteryx</b> or <b>Splunk, </b>instead of its Foundry platform.</p><p>Instead of sticking with this speculative and unprofitable company, it might be smarter for investors to rotate back toward firmly profitable blue-chip tech stocks which will benefit from the same data-mining tailwinds.</p><h2>3. Bumble</h2><p>After defending Bumble for nearly a year, I finally realized that the online dating company&#39;s weaknesses outweighed its strengths. The growth of Bumble&#39;s namesake app, which lets women make the first move, is decelerating. Its secondary app, Badoo, continues to lose paid users.</p><p>Last quarter, Bumble&#39;s total number of paid users across both apps grew 20% year over year to 1.53 million, but that marked a deceleration from its 36% growth in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, <b>Match Group</b>&#39;s (NASDAQ:MTCH) total number of paying users, 64% of whom use Tinder, increased 16% year over year to 16.3 million in its latest quarter. The company actually accelerated from its 15% growth in the previous quarter.</p><p>Bumble also remains unprofitable, and it&#39;s shouldering <i>more than twice</i> as much debt as its total cash and equivalents. At the same time, it&#39;s pursuing scattershot strategies -- including opening a restaurant in New York City, selling branded apparel and products through an online store, and rebooting its BFF feature (for platonic friendships) as a vaguely defined metaverse platform.</p><p>Those plans probably won&#39;t widen Bumble&#39;s moat against Match&#39;s portfolio of over a dozen dating apps. After listening to its latest conference call, it became painfully clear that Bumble overestimated its own brand appeal while underestimating the competition.</p><p>Bumble expects its revenue to grow 31% to 32% this fiscal year, but that&#39;s only a bit faster than Match&#39;s projected revenue growth rate of 25%. Bumble&#39;s stock might seem reasonably valued at six times next year&#39;s sales, but it probably won&#39;t command a higher premium until it stabilizes its user growth and significantly narrows its net losses. Until that happens, Match will probably be the better overall investment.</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>Why I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks</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\">\nWhy I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-22 07:38 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/21/why-i-sold-these-3-high-growth-tech-stocks/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Rising inflation and higher interest rates have crushed many high-growth tech stocks over the past few months.

Its secondary app, Badoo, continues to lose paid users.Last quarter, Bumble's total number of paid users across both apps grew 20% year over year to 1.53 million, but that marked a deceleration from its 36% growth in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, Match Group's (NASDAQ:MTCH) total number of paying users, 64% of whom use Tinder, increased 16% year over year to 16.3 million in its latest quarter. The company actually accelerated from its 15% growth in the previous quarter.Bumble also remains unprofitable, and it's shouldering more than twice as much debt as its total cash and equivalents. At the same time, it's pursuing scattershot strategies -- including opening a restaurant in New York City, selling branded apparel and products through an online store, and rebooting its BFF feature (for platonic friendships) as a vaguely defined metaverse platform.Those plans probably won't widen Bumble's moat against Match's portfolio of over a dozen dating apps. After listening to its latest conference call, it became painfully clear that Bumble overestimated its own brand appeal while underestimating the competition.Bumble expects its revenue to grow 31% to 32% this fiscal year, but that's only a bit faster than Match's projected revenue growth rate of 25%. Bumble's stock might seem reasonably valued at six times next year's sales, but it probably won't command a higher premium until it stabilizes its user growth and significantly narrows its net losses. Until that happens, Match will probably be the better overall investment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9019550355,"gmtCreate":1648611742123,"gmtModify":1676534364933,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"This is useless because it already happened.

The current macro backdrop has not made a favourable environment for high-growth segment stocks. The recent release of meeting minutes from the FOMC’s policy meeting in December, paired with increasing consumer price pressures at record-setting levels have triggered hawkish sentiments supporting faster and sooner rate hikes beginning as early as March to curb runaway inflation. The hastened withdrawal of pandemic-era stimulus, coupled with the impending return of rate hikes have caused investors to turn risk averse on high-growth, high-valuation stocks. This is largely due to uncertainties over how the upcoming rate hikes might erode the value of future gains or stall business growth due to rising costs of capital.</p><p>While the imminent tightening of monetary policy has stoked fear amongst equity investors as they mull on how to price the upcoming rate hike impacts into asset valuations, we believe Palantir will emerge favourably in both the near- and long-term. On one hand, the inflation-resistant nature of Palantir’s business, paired with its high-growth prospects and ability to generate robust cash flows from operations should make it an attractive stock within the near-term amidst mounting macro pressures. Meanwhile, in the longer term, Palantir’s technology will continue to play a critical role in supporting key digital trends like AI, which will soon become a necessity instead of novelty in the data-driven era. On these considerations, we believe Palantir&#39;s stock will soon resume its upwardmomentum, with the upcoming earnings report being a potential catalyst to jumpstart its performance.</p><p><b>Near-Term Considerations for Palantir</b></p><p>In line with the broader market, Palantir&#39;s stock rallied on the first trading session of the year, with intraday gains of as much as 4%. However, the momentum was short-lived and has since been overtaken by an extended market rout triggered by increasingly hawkish narratives from Fed representatives. The rising urgency for faster and sooner rate hikes to combat the hottest inflation in close to four decades has sent market benchmarks like the S&amp;P 500 on a rundown of close to 5%. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 plunged by more than 8% since the year opened due to souring sentiment for high-growth, high-valuation stocks that have largely outperformed in the past 20 months. Instead, mature tech companies likeDell(NYSE:DELL) and HP(NYSE:HPQ)have been resilient due to their low debt, high cash flow, and stable-growth businesses, which provides a strong hedge against the impending rate hikes.</p><p>However, Palantir’s upcoming earnings report will likely jumpstart the stock toward a similar trend as the mature tech companies. The company boasts a promising growth outlook built on continued innovation, with high visibility into future cash flows thanks to a robust contracted revenue base. Palantir also operates on a strong balance sheet, which is currently debt-free and boasts a robust cash-on-hand balance of more than $2.3 billion to support continued growth.</p><p>While the impending rate hikes have put investors at the edge of their seats about potentially stalled growth and development in next-generation tech companies due to rising costs of capital in coming years, the fact that Palantir’s operations are already self-sufficient should not be overlooked. In the first nine months of 2021, Palantir generated more than $240 million in cash from operating activities alone, despite year-to-date net losses of $364 million. Much of the losses were driven by share-based compensation expenses, which will likely continue to put pressure on its profit margins in the near-term as the company prioritizes the retention of talent to support ongoing expansion of the business. However, these expenses are non-cash in nature, and when that is taken into account, Palantir is actually profitable on a cash-basis and have continued to demonstrate strength in generating significant free cash flows to fund its growth roadmap. This accordingly provides it with partial immunity against hemorrhaging valuation prospects due to rising costs of capital from the upcoming rate hikes.</p><p>The company’s near-term growth trajectory also remains intact. As of the third quarter period ended September 2021, Palantir’s total unrealized deal value grew by 50% year-over-year to $3.6 billion with an average duration of at least four years. Palantir has continued to exhibit strength in both its commercial and government segments. Recent contract wins and extensions have been a testament to the effectiveness of Palantir’s software solutions, as well as accelerated adoption from both the private and public sectors as operations become increasingly digital, generating vast troves of data that will need to be integrated, processed and analyzed to drive key decision-making processes. In addition to the new and renewed contracts during the last three months of 2021, which have been discussed in our most recent coverage, Palantir has rung into the new year with a notable partnership forged with Hyundai Heavy Industries. The $25 million multi-year deal is a symbol of Palantir’s growing presence across the West’s APAC allies, and represents an extension of Palantir’s success in growing its commercial segment over the past year. Under the arrangement, Hyundai Heavy will leverage Palantir’s commercial software, likely Foundry, to create tools for breaking down the siloed data fields across its affiliate groups, which range from shipbuilding to industrial machinery processes, and facilitate better-integrated operations. The two companies intend to create a joint venture to commercialize the new tools built on Palantir’s platform, which will create greater exposure for Palantir’s technological capabilities to the global commercial sector, and further fortify the company’s growth prospects.</p><p><b>Long-Term Considerations for Palantir</b></p><p>Over the longer-term, we foresee Palantir’s technologies to evolve from a novelty into a necessity. AI-driven analytical tools like Palantir’s Gotham and Foundry will remain critical functions across both the public and private sectors to ensuring the seamless integration of data platforms and improving decision-making in the increasingly digital world. And Palantir is already in the works of pushing its software towards the mainstream by offering a wide range of solutions for organizations across both the private and public sectors to choose from on an as-needed basis.</p><p>The introduction of “Foundry for Builders” in July is one of Palantir’s earliest strategies in opening up its offerings to the mass market. Foundry for Builders is offered under a subscription-based model and breaks down the traditional cost barriers that have hindered access to Palantir’s software solution for smaller commercial customers like Day One start-ups. The new offering enables Palantir to extend its Foundry capabilities to support all types of organizations, ranging from multinational corporations with complex data compilations to small- and medium-sized businesses with limited resources looking for a cost-effective data analytical tool. The strategy is expected to encourage mass market adoption of Palantir’s commercial segment offerings, and ensure further penetration into a total addressable market that is expected to grow from $400 billion today into $500 billion by 2025 and $1.6 trillion by the end of the decade. While the new offering is still in beta phase with availability offered to only a small cohort of start-ups, the positive reception received to date indicates significant potential for wider adoption once introduced to the broader market.</p><p>The recent introduction of industry-specific modular solutions built on Foundry, such as “Carbon Emissions Management” and “Anti-Money Laundering/Know Your Client for Crypto” (“AML / KYC for Crypto”), will also appeal to both government agencies and private businesses looking to tackle some of today’s most challenging problems. With increasing global calls for cutting pollution and combating climate change, Palantir’s Carbon Emissions Management tool can add value by helping its corporate clients integrate emissions data, such as daily pollution volumes across the supply chain and emissions reduction targets, with planned revenues and margins to determine the best trade-off based on their respective business plans and objectives. For instance, the Carbon Emissions Management tool can consolidate emissions data collected from disparate sources in real-time and simulate related impacts under different scenarios to drive the decision-making process on business changes required. The modular offering enables Palantir to capitalize on opportunities arising from growing ESG needs in the private sector, while also helping its clients better manage their emissions impacts and “develop a competitive edge to beat competition and win the market”.</p><p>TheAML/KYC for Crypto solution is also deployed at an opportune time. Securities regulators have made it a priority to rein in the fast-growing cryptocurrency market with new rules, while cryptocurrency exchanges look for solutions to ensure compliance with the changing regulatory landscape. The new AML/KYC for Crypto tool is built on Palantir’s years of expertise in helping both regulators and private financial institutions address AML/KYC compliance considerations, and can be deployed in a time- and cost-effective manner for both sides of the equation across.AML/KYC for Crypto enables a large variety of use-cases ranging from real-time compliance tracking across disparate sources for cryptocurrency exchanges, to potentially regulatory simulations for securities regulators. This makes Palantir well-positioned to capitalize on the rising crypto momentum in coming years – the global blockchain market is expected to grow into a $67 billion opportunity by 2026, with proper management ofAML/KYC considerations encouraging adoption. And North America, Palantir’s key market, will maintain the largest share, underpinning robust demand for the new industry-specific solution in coming years.</p><p>Palantir is also making steady progress towards its ultimate goal of becoming “the U.S. government’s central operating system”. In addition to Palantir’s continued push for its software solutions to be implemented across government agencies ranging from defense to healthcare, the public sector has also become increasingly receptive of reliance on technology and innovation. While the $778 billion annual defense spending budget authorized by the Senate in December remains flat compared to the prior year’s after adjusting for inflation, funding allocated towards R&amp;D and procurement of emerging technologies like AI systems have increased by more than $3 billion. The Pentagon has also welcomed the development and utilization of innovative technologies in defense and combat in recent years, as they work on breaking the high barriers of entry that the giant defense contractors have historically built. In 2020, the agency allocated $1.5 billion in direct funding to more than 1,600 software-as-a-service start-ups, and set aside a number of defense contracts valued at up to $3 million each for early-stage software providers. Frontline healthcare workers in the U.S. have also indicated technology as one of the top three items that can “help reduce their stress and become more effective”. Specifically, tools that can help “automate tasks, provide remote assistance and help communicate with colleagues” are seen as the most helpful. This signals that a greater market of opportunities from the U.S. government is coming Palantir’s way, underpinning additional multi-year growth in the foreseeable future.</p><p><b>Where Might PLTR Stock be Headed?</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d650f70bbfb8bc052e908d417257b5a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"229\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>PLTR 12-Month Price Target</span></p><p>Considering Palantir’s growth outlook remains intact for both the near- and longer-term despite mounting macro headwinds, we are maintaining our 12-month price target for the stock at $25.45. Consistent with our previous analysis on potentially better-than-expected FY 2021 financial performance, we believe the upcoming earnings call will be a catalyst to jumpstarting the stock from its recent declines and bolster investors’ confidence on Palantir’s valuation prospects ahead of the upcoming rate hikes.</p><p><i>i.

Recall from our discussion in earlier sections that share-based compensation expenses are non-cash in nature, thus from a fundamental perspective, Palantir’s free cash flows continue to reflect the underlying business’ high-growth nature. In short, the company continues to be increasingly self-sufficient with a robust cash runway to fund growth in coming years.</p><p>And from a valuation perspective, the share-based compensation issued today cannot be exercised or sold until they vest, which could still be a few years out. Although many senior executives, including CEO Alex Karp, had offloaded a significant volume of shares last year causing stock price pressures, it was part of a long-term compensation-realization scheme, in which share-based compensation issued at the earlier days of Palantir were nearing expiry in December. As such, we are not expecting similar high-volume sell-offs within the foreseeable future.</p><blockquote>As we mentioned on prior earnings calls, Karp was granted options a decade ago which we set to expire on December 3rd of this year. Specifically, as a report equity yields 60.9 million options that were set to expire this December. The taxes from the exercise of the options are more than $0.5 billion. And so we&#39;ve been selling shares along the way to generate funds to pay those taxes. Of the 16.9 million expiring options, he has now exercised 94% of the total. Of the remaining 6%, roughly half or 1.9 million of them will be sold by the expiration date, the other half exercised and as a result, all the near-term expiring options will be exercised.</blockquote><blockquote>Source:Q3 2021 Earnings Call Transcript</blockquote><p>This is further corroborated by the fact that insider selling activity has since calmed according to recent SEC filings, with only one instance earlier this year by Alex Moore, a Palantir veteran. Similar to other insider share-selling activities observed in the past year, the offloaded shares were done in compliance with Rule 10b5-1, meaning it had been planned in advance and not based on any immediate insider information on the company’s performance. From a fundamental standpoint, the latest share-selling activity also does not imply any adverse impacts to the company’s growth outlook.</p><p>Going forward, we expect share dilutions related to share-based compensation to occur at a much more mild rate, similar to other tech stocks that have very much relied on the non-cash compensation strategy to acquire top talent needed to facilitate growth. And robust fundamental growth in years ahead is expected to compensate for said dilution impacts. Palantir is expected to start realizing nominal profits of $141.1 million by 2025, with further growth towards $1.5 billion by the end of the decade based on our current base case forecast, which is also consistent with anticipated long-term top-line growth that management has guided. The returns are expected to far exceed the anticipated rate of share dilution at 4% per year resulting from the share-based compensation program.</p><p>We also expect share-based compensation expenses to scale back and represent a smaller portion of annual revenues in coming years. Strategically, Palantir’s extension of generous share-based compensation packages for its employees will continue to provide them with an incentive to remain committed to the company’s growth. But to ensure the incentive is useful, it is unlikely that Palantir will do it at the expense of over-diluting the company’s share price over the longer-term. While the current share-based compensation expenses represent a large portion of annual revenues, we expect similar spending will scale back in coming years as the company continues to grow to ensure a balance and alignment of interest between employees and shareholders.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>Palantir remains on a robust growth trajectory as global digitization trends in coming years continue to underpin demand for data management and analytics software like Foundry and Gotham. While government contracts, especially those associated with defense, remain Palantir’s priority, the company has made significant progress in strategically capitalizing on growth opportunities from the commercial segment. The resulting fundamental performance is also expected to compensate for any potential share-sale dilutions related to the share-based compensation program over the longer-term. With the stock now trading at a discount of more than 60% from its peak in early 2021 with no material changes to its growth outlook, we consider the recent pullback a reasonable entry point with potential upside momentum to resume going into the upcoming earnings season and as mounting macro headwinds abate.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The current macro backdrop has not made a favourable environment for high-growth segment stocks. The recent release of meeting minutes from the FOMC’s policy meeting in December, paired with increasing consumer price pressures at record-setting levels have triggered hawkish sentiments supporting faster and sooner rate hikes beginning as early as March to curb runaway inflation. The hastened withdrawal of pandemic-era stimulus, coupled with the impending return of rate hikes have caused investors to turn risk averse on high-growth, high-valuation stocks. This is largely due to uncertainties over how the upcoming rate hikes might erode the value of future gains or stall business growth due to rising costs of capital.While the imminent tightening of monetary policy has stoked fear amongst equity investors as they mull on how to price the upcoming rate hike impacts into asset valuations, we believe Palantir will emerge favourably in both the near- and long-term. On one hand, the inflation-resistant nature of Palantir’s business, paired with its high-growth prospects and ability to generate robust cash flows from operations should make it an attractive stock within the near-term amidst mounting macro pressures. Meanwhile, in the longer term, Palantir’s technology will continue to play a critical role in supporting key digital trends like AI, which will soon become a necessity instead of novelty in the data-driven era. On these considerations, we believe Palantir's stock will soon resume its upwardmomentum, with the upcoming earnings report being a potential catalyst to jumpstart its performance.Near-Term Considerations for PalantirIn line with the broader market, Palantir's stock rallied on the first trading session of the year, with intraday gains of as much as 4%. However, the momentum was short-lived and has since been overtaken by an extended market rout triggered by increasingly hawkish narratives from Fed representatives. The rising urgency for faster and sooner rate hikes to combat the hottest inflation in close to four decades has sent market benchmarks like the S&P 500 on a rundown of close to 5%. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 plunged by more than 8% since the year opened due to souring sentiment for high-growth, high-valuation stocks that have largely outperformed in the past 20 months. Instead, mature tech companies likeDell(NYSE:DELL) and HP(NYSE:HPQ)have been resilient due to their low debt, high cash flow, and stable-growth businesses, which provides a strong hedge against the impending rate hikes.However, Palantir’s upcoming earnings report will likely jumpstart the stock toward a similar trend as the mature tech companies. The company boasts a promising growth outlook built on continued innovation, with high visibility into future cash flows thanks to a robust contracted revenue base. Palantir also operates on a strong balance sheet, which is currently debt-free and boasts a robust cash-on-hand balance of more than $2.3 billion to support continued growth.While the impending rate hikes have put investors at the edge of their seats about potentially stalled growth and development in next-generation tech companies due to rising costs of capital in coming years, the fact that Palantir’s operations are already self-sufficient should not be overlooked. In the first nine months of 2021, Palantir generated more than $240 million in cash from operating activities alone, despite year-to-date net losses of $364 million. Much of the losses were driven by share-based compensation expenses, which will likely continue to put pressure on its profit margins in the near-term as the company prioritizes the retention of talent to support ongoing expansion of the business. However, these expenses are non-cash in nature, and when that is taken into account, Palantir is actually profitable on a cash-basis and have continued to demonstrate strength in generating significant free cash flows to fund its growth roadmap. This accordingly provides it with partial immunity against hemorrhaging valuation prospects due to rising costs of capital from the upcoming rate hikes.The company’s near-term growth trajectory also remains intact. As of the third quarter period ended September 2021, Palantir’s total unrealized deal value grew by 50% year-over-year to $3.6 billion with an average duration of at least four years. Palantir has continued to exhibit strength in both its commercial and government segments. Recent contract wins and extensions have been a testament to the effectiveness of Palantir’s software solutions, as well as accelerated adoption from both the private and public sectors as operations become increasingly digital, generating vast troves of data that will need to be integrated, processed and analyzed to drive key decision-making processes. In addition to the new and renewed contracts during the last three months of 2021, which have been discussed in our most recent coverage, Palantir has rung into the new year with a notable partnership forged with Hyundai Heavy Industries. The $25 million multi-year deal is a symbol of Palantir’s growing presence across the West’s APAC allies, and represents an extension of Palantir’s success in growing its commercial segment over the past year. Under the arrangement, Hyundai Heavy will leverage Palantir’s commercial software, likely Foundry, to create tools for breaking down the siloed data fields across its affiliate groups, which range from shipbuilding to industrial machinery processes, and facilitate better-integrated operations. The two companies intend to create a joint venture to commercialize the new tools built on Palantir’s platform, which will create greater exposure for Palantir’s technological capabilities to the global commercial sector, and further fortify the company’s growth prospects.Long-Term Considerations for PalantirOver the longer-term, we foresee Palantir’s technologies to evolve from a novelty into a necessity. AI-driven analytical tools like Palantir’s Gotham and Foundry will remain critical functions across both the public and private sectors to ensuring the seamless integration of data platforms and improving decision-making in the increasingly digital world. And Palantir is already in the works of pushing its software towards the mainstream by offering a wide range of solutions for organizations across both the private and public sectors to choose from on an as-needed basis.The introduction of “Foundry for Builders” in July is one of Palantir’s earliest strategies in opening up its offerings to the mass market. Foundry for Builders is offered under a subscription-based model and breaks down the traditional cost barriers that have hindered access to Palantir’s software solution for smaller commercial customers like Day One start-ups. The new offering enables Palantir to extend its Foundry capabilities to support all types of organizations, ranging from multinational corporations with complex data compilations to small- and medium-sized businesses with limited resources looking for a cost-effective data analytical tool. The strategy is expected to encourage mass market adoption of Palantir’s commercial segment offerings, and ensure further penetration into a total addressable market that is expected to grow from $400 billion today into $500 billion by 2025 and $1.6 trillion by the end of the decade. While the new offering is still in beta phase with availability offered to only a small cohort of start-ups, the positive reception received to date indicates significant potential for wider adoption once introduced to the broader market.The recent introduction of industry-specific modular solutions built on Foundry, such as “Carbon Emissions Management” and “Anti-Money Laundering/Know Your Client for Crypto” (“AML / KYC for Crypto”), will also appeal to both government agencies and private businesses looking to tackle some of today’s most challenging problems. With increasing global calls for cutting pollution and combating climate change, Palantir’s Carbon Emissions Management tool can add value by helping its corporate clients integrate emissions data, such as daily pollution volumes across the supply chain and emissions reduction targets, with planned revenues and margins to determine the best trade-off based on their respective business plans and objectives. For instance, the Carbon Emissions Management tool can consolidate emissions data collected from disparate sources in real-time and simulate related impacts under different scenarios to drive the decision-making process on business changes required. The modular offering enables Palantir to capitalize on opportunities arising from growing ESG needs in the private sector, while also helping its clients better manage their emissions impacts and “develop a competitive edge to beat competition and win the market”.TheAML/KYC for Crypto solution is also deployed at an opportune time. Securities regulators have made it a priority to rein in the fast-growing cryptocurrency market with new rules, while cryptocurrency exchanges look for solutions to ensure compliance with the changing regulatory landscape. The new AML/KYC for Crypto tool is built on Palantir’s years of expertise in helping both regulators and private financial institutions address AML/KYC compliance considerations, and can be deployed in a time- and cost-effective manner for both sides of the equation across.AML/KYC for Crypto enables a large variety of use-cases ranging from real-time compliance tracking across disparate sources for cryptocurrency exchanges, to potentially regulatory simulations for securities regulators. This makes Palantir well-positioned to capitalize on the rising crypto momentum in coming years – the global blockchain market is expected to grow into a $67 billion opportunity by 2026, with proper management ofAML/KYC considerations encouraging adoption. And North America, Palantir’s key market, will maintain the largest share, underpinning robust demand for the new industry-specific solution in coming years.Palantir is also making steady progress towards its ultimate goal of becoming “the U.S. government’s central operating system”. In addition to Palantir’s continued push for its software solutions to be implemented across government agencies ranging from defense to healthcare, the public sector has also become increasingly receptive of reliance on technology and innovation. While the $778 billion annual defense spending budget authorized by the Senate in December remains flat compared to the prior year’s after adjusting for inflation, funding allocated towards R&D and procurement of emerging technologies like AI systems have increased by more than $3 billion. The Pentagon has also welcomed the development and utilization of innovative technologies in defense and combat in recent years, as they work on breaking the high barriers of entry that the giant defense contractors have historically built. In 2020, the agency allocated $1.5 billion in direct funding to more than 1,600 software-as-a-service start-ups, and set aside a number of defense contracts valued at up to $3 million each for early-stage software providers. Frontline healthcare workers in the U.S. have also indicated technology as one of the top three items that can “help reduce their stress and become more effective”. Specifically, tools that can help “automate tasks, provide remote assistance and help communicate with colleagues” are seen as the most helpful. This signals that a greater market of opportunities from the U.S. government is coming Palantir’s way, underpinning additional multi-year growth in the foreseeable future.Where Might PLTR Stock be Headed?PLTR 12-Month Price TargetConsidering Palantir’s growth outlook remains intact for both the near- and longer-term despite mounting macro headwinds, we are maintaining our 12-month price target for the stock at $25.45. Consistent with our previous analysis on potentially better-than-expected FY 2021 financial performance, we believe the upcoming earnings call will be a catalyst to jumpstarting the stock from its recent declines and bolster investors’ confidence on Palantir’s valuation prospects ahead of the upcoming rate hikes.i.

A combination of negative macro developments – a slowing global economy, the geopolitical ramifications following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and - possibly most of all - the prospect of the Fed seriously tightening its monetary policy to combat inflation – have all been weighing heavily on investors’ minds.That doesn’t necessarily mean there aren’t good opportunities to take advantage of right now. The analysts at banking giant Goldman Sachs have pinpointed two names which have recently outperformed market expectations and which they believe are set to surge ahead even in the face of the unhospitable current environment – by the order of 40% or more.We ran both tickers through the TipRanks database to see what the rest of the Street has in mind for the pair. Let’s take a look at the findings.Pure Storage The first stock on Goldman Sachs' radar is Pure Storage, a provider of various data storage products. The company’s flash-based solutions come both in software and hardware form and are used in data centers. The company began by using third-party solid-state drives (SSDs) for its storage solutions. However, its own proprietary hardware soon replaced those SSDs and the company also brought into the market integrated deduplication, compression, and artificial intelligence software to help businesses conserve space and set up their devices properly.Pure Storage has formed a strong partnership with Meta, having assisted in the development of the initial version of its AI research infrastructure in 2017. Since then, the pair have continued working together and earlier this year the two began a collaboration on Meta's new AI Research SuperCluster (RSC), which Meta claims will be the fastest AI supercomputer in the world.Like most tech stocks, Pure has found 2022 hard going but that hasn’t stopped the company from delivering the goods in its latest quarterly report.In F1Q23, revenue rose by 50.3% year-over-year to reach $620.4 million, handily beating the $521.74 million Wall Street expected. Similarly, on the bottom-line, adj. EPS of $0.25 came in well above the $0.05 consensus estimate. The company delivered on the outlook too, expecting revenue of roughly $635 Million in FQ2 vs. consensus at $604.64 million. For the full year, sales are anticipated to reach $2.66 Billion. Analysts had that figure at $2.59 billion.Along with the company’s exemplary execution, it is the Meta collab which informs Goldman analyst Rod Hall’s bullish thesis.“We see this Meta opportunity as a strong revenue tailwind for Pure looking forward in FY’23. We also see ongoing strong results as an indication that Pure’s products are gaining an increasing following among enterprise and service provider customers,” the analyst opined. “At this point we see Pure’s supply management as superior to most other companies in our coverage in the IT hardware area.”The bullish comments underpin Hall’s Buy rating while his $50 price target makes room for one-year gains of 79%.Overall, PSTG has attracted a total of 10 analyst reviews recently, including 7 Buys and 3 Holds for a Moderate Buy consensus rating from the Street. PSTG shares are priced at $27.90 and have an average price target of $38, giving the stock a 36% upside on the one-year time frame.Lululemon Athletica From tech we will pivot over to an entirely different sector. Everyone knows Lululemon - the athleisure specialist. The company got its beginnings in 1998 as a yoga pants and other yoga clothing retailer, but has since evolved to include athletic wear, lifestyle clothes, personal care products and all manner of accessories. Lululemon now has over 570 stores spread across the globe while it has also built a strong online presence. In apparel, the company has been rated as the world's fourth most valuable brand.Lululemon was one of the Covid era stars as people stayed at home and slipped into more comfortable wear, while the company even managed to overcome the closure of physical stores by shifting sales online. While not immune to the market’s overall downturn, Lululemon appears to have managed well in the face of new challenges, namely the supply chain issues which have impacted so many in recent times. This was evident in the company’s latest earnings report - for F1Q22.Lululemon generated revenue of $1.6 billion, a 32% increase on the same period a year ago, while diluted EPS hit $1.48. Both were above the analysts’ forecast of $1.55 billion and $1.43, respectively. There was more good news for the outlook. For FQ2, Lululemon sees revenue coming in the range between $1.750 billion to $1.775 billion, above consensus of $1.73 billion. And the company also raised its revenue and EPS outlook for the full year.Surveying the print, Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach is thoroughly impressed. She writes, “We come away from the quarter with increased conviction in LULU’s strong brand engine fueled by innovation. While industry cost pressures are weighing on margin flow-through (where airfreight pressures have lowered full year margin outlook modestly), we continue to see this idiosyncratic growth story as well-positioned to navigate a tough backdrop as the company has meaningful pricing power, strong consumer connection, and less exposure to inflating AUCs (average unit cost).”Accordingly, Roach rates the stock a Buy, backed by a $456 price target. Going by this target, shares are expected to climb 48% higher over the one-year timeframe.Looking at the consensus breakdown, the majority of analysts are bullish on LULU's prospects, too; 19 Buys and 7 Holds add up to a Moderate Buy consensus rating. The average price target of $409.69 suggests upside of ~34% in the year ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084688596,"gmtCreate":1650855889072,"gmtModify":1676534804406,"author":{"id":"3582784322184490","authorId":"3582784322184490","name":"lrjk1985","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb89309f2792d9fd2433431d3e68c2","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582784322184490","authorIdStr":"3582784322184490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"How many people will buy in because of this?","listText":"How many people will buy in because of this?","text":"How many people will buy in because of this?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9084688596","repostId":"2229419405","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
