A stellar set of earningsLooking at DBS’ 2Q 2023, net interest income (NII) for its commercial book division surged 54% year on year to S$3.6 billion.The improvement was in line with higher interest rates which translated into a better net interest margin (NIM) for the bank.Fee and commission income improved by 7% year on year to S$823 million.Because of these increases, DBS’ total income increased by 35% year on year to surpass S$5 billion.Expenses rose just 16% year on year, resulting in profit before allowances soaring 50% year on year to S$3.1 billion.Net profit came in at S$2.6 billion for 2Q 2023, up 45% year on year.The latest profit figures include S$60 million of integration costs related to DBS’ acquisition of Citigroup’s (NYSE: C) Taiwan consumer banking division.For 1H 2023, the lender’s total income improved by 34% year on year to nearly S$10 billion.Net profit clocked in at S$5.2 billion with ROE reaching 18.9%, both at record-high levels for the group.2. Net interest margin continues to climbDBS saw its NIM jump from 1.52% in 1H 2022 to 2.14% in 1H 2023.On a quarter-on-quarter basis, NIM continues to trend up although the increase is moderating over the past three quarters.2Q 2023’s NIM came in at 2.16%, up 0.58 percentage points from the prior year’s 1.58%.It was also 0.04 percentage points higher than 1Q 2023’s NIM of 2.12%.However, the quarter-on-quarter increase is less than that of 1Q 2023’s 0.07 percentage points and 4Q 2022’s 0.15 percentage points.Despite this, CEO Piyush Gupta believes that there is an “upward bias” to NIM from current levels because of unexpected interest rate increases by the US Federal Reserve in the second half of 2023.Around 20% of the bank’s commercial loans have also yet to be repriced to higher rates.3. Better fee income and higher assets under managementTurning to fee income, DBS enjoyed a 3.5% year on year uplift for 1H 2023 to hit S$2 billion.For the quarter, fee income hit S$999 million, 9% higher than the level a year ago.The rise was attributable to three fee categories – wealth management, loans and credit cards.Wealth management fees increased by 11.9% year on year because of higher insurance and investment product sales while loan-related fees jumped by 16.7% year on year to S$133 million.Credit card fees improved by 16.7% year on year to S$237 million in line with higher travel spending.DBS also saw assets under management (AUM) rise from S$294 billion a year ago to S$320 billion.Fee income is projected to grow by mid-single-digits for 2023 as there is further upside from card spending along with better momentum in garnering AUM as S$12 billion of inflows was recorded by the bank in 1H 2023.4. A dip in loan growth with an improving non-performing loans ratioDBS’ loan book saw a 2% year-on-year dip to S$415.7 billion mainly due to a S$3 billion contraction in trade loans and a fall in wealth management loans during 1H 2023.The subdued lending environment was due to the sharp rise in interest rates.Still, management expects low-single-digit loan growth for 2023 contributed by non-trade corporate loans and trade loans in the second half.The non-performing loans (NPL) ratio remained steady at 1.1% quarter-on-quarter but improved from the prior year’s 1.3%.5. A sharply higher quarterly dividendIn tandem with the robust set of earnings, DBS hiked its quarterly dividend by 33% year on year from S$0.36 to S$0.48.The increase brings its 1H 2023 dividend to S$0.90, 25% higher than the S$0.72 paid out in 1H 2022.The bank’s annualised dividend based on S$0.48 per share has risen to S$1.92, giving its shares a forward dividend yield of 5.7%.DBS reiterated its dividend guidance given at its May 2023 Investor Day, stating that a baseline increase of S$0.24 per year (i.e. S$0.06 per quarter) is sustainable barring unforeseen circumstances.In addition, there could be a further ordinary dividend increase, a special dividend, or share buybacks depending on business conditions and the macroeconomic outlook.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":717,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":204783623205000,"gmtCreate":1691029323634,"gmtModify":1691029327139,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/204783623205000","repostId":"2356891861","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2356891861","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1691027291,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2356891861?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-08-03

id=\"id_3474313124\">United Overseas Bank Ltd (SGX: U11)</h2><p>United Overseas Bank, or UOB, is Singapore’s third-largest bank by market capitalisation.</p><p>The lender is enjoying a strong uplift in its net interest income (NII) in line with surging interest rates.</p><p>For its recent 2023 first half (1H 2023) earnings, the bank reported a sharp 53% year on year jump in core net profit to S$3.1 billion.</p><p>NII surged by 37% year on year to S$4.8 billion as the bank’s net interest margin (NIM) expanded from 1.63% in 1H 2022 to 2.13% in 1H 2023.</p><p>UOB hiked its interim dividend by 42% year on year from S$0.60 to S$0.85, representing around 49% of the group’s net profit.</p><p>At a share price of S$30.10 and with a trailing 12-month dividend of S$1.60, the bank’s shares offer a trailing dividend yield of 5.3%.</p><p>The lender is optimistic for the remainder of 2023 as it is on track to achieve a projected annualised revenue uplift of around S$1 billion from its acquisition and integration of <strong>Citigroup’s</strong> (NYSE: C) consumer banking franchise in four countries.</p><p>The acquisition has concluded in Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam with integration expected for Thailand and Vietnam by next year.</p><p>Indonesia is on track for completion by the end of 2023.</p><p>With the US Federal Reserve raising interest rates to their highest level in more than 22 years and with yet another possible rate hike on the cards in September, UOB looks set to enjoy high NIM and NII for the foreseeable future.</p><h2 id=\"id_3251307585\">Jardine Matheson Holdings Limited (SGX: J36)</h2><p>Jardine Matheson Holdings, or JMH, is a diversified group owning multiple businesses and property assets.</p><p>The group employs more than 425,000 employees and has a wide range of businesses in sectors such as food retailing, health and beauty, property development, transport services, and luxury hotels.</p><p>For 1H 2023, revenue remained flat year on year at US$18.3 billion.</p><p>However, underlying profit, which strips out one-off and exceptional items, improved by 10% year on year to US$823 million.</p><p>As of 30 June 2023, net asset value per share inched up 1% from 31 December 2022 to US$100.</p><p>With stronger results, JMH declared an interim dividend of US$0.60, 9% higher than the US$0.55 paid out a year ago.</p><p>Together with last year’s final dividend of US$1.60, the trailing 12-month dividend for the diversified group stood at US$2.20, giving its shares a trailing dividend yield of 4.5%.</p><h2 id=\"id_860169339\">DFI Retail Group (SGX: D01)</h2><p>DFI Retail Group, or DFI, is a pan-Asian retailer with more than 10,700 outlets and 218,000 employees as of 30 June 2023.</p><p>The group operates several well-known brands such as Giant, Cold Storage, and Guardian across formats such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, health and beauty, and convenience stores.</p><p>The business has seen an encouraging recovery amid improved trading conditions in 1H 2023 as the Hong Kong border reopens and footfall increases across all its stores.</p><p>Revenue remained flat year on year at US$4.6 billion.</p><p>However, DFI reported a turnaround for 1H 2023 with an underlying net profit of US$33 million, reversing the US$52 million net loss in the prior year.</p><p>The Health and Beauty division saw a 20% like-for-like sales growth for the half-year but was dragged down by weakness in grocery retail and home furnishings.</p><p>Free cash flow for the retail group climbed nearly 28% year on year from US$283.6 million in 1H 2022 to US$362.6 million in 1H 2023.</p><p>As a result, DFI tripled its interim dividend to US$0.03, which was similar to the total dividend paid for 2022.</p><p>Together with last year’s final dividend of US$0.02, the trailing 12-month dividend adds up to US$0.05, giving its shares a trailing dividend yield of 1.9%.</p></body></html>","source":"thesmartinvestor_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE

rates.For its recent 2023 first half (1H 2023) earnings, the bank reported a sharp 53% year on year jump in core net profit to S$3.1 billion.NII surged by 37% year on year to S$4.8 billion as the bank’s net interest margin (NIM) expanded from 1.63% in 1H 2022 to 2.13% in 1H 2023.UOB hiked its interim dividend by 42% year on year from S$0.60 to S$0.85, representing around 49% of the group’s net profit.At a share price of S$30.10 and with a trailing 12-month dividend of S$1.60, the bank’s shares offer a trailing dividend yield of 5.3%.The lender is optimistic for the remainder of 2023 as it is on track to achieve a projected annualised revenue uplift of around S$1 billion from its acquisition and integration of Citigroup’s (NYSE: C) consumer banking franchise in four countries.The acquisition has concluded in Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam with integration expected for Thailand and Vietnam by next year.Indonesia is on track for completion by the end of 2023.With the US Federal Reserve raising interest rates to their highest level in more than 22 years and with yet another possible rate hike on the cards in September, UOB looks set to enjoy high NIM and NII for the foreseeable future.Jardine Matheson Holdings Limited (SGX: J36)Jardine Matheson Holdings, or JMH, is a diversified group owning multiple businesses and property assets.The group employs more than 425,000 employees and has a wide range of businesses in sectors such as food retailing, health and beauty, property development, transport services, and luxury hotels.For 1H 2023, revenue remained flat year on year at US$18.3 billion.However, underlying profit, which strips out one-off and exceptional items, improved by 10% year on year to US$823 million.As of 30 June 2023, net asset value per share inched up 1% from 31 December 2022 to US$100.With stronger results, JMH declared an interim dividend of US$0.60, 9% higher than the US$0.55 paid out a year ago.Together with last year’s final dividend of US$1.60, the trailing 12-month dividend for the diversified group stood at US$2.20, giving its shares a trailing dividend yield of 4.5%.DFI Retail Group (SGX: D01)DFI Retail Group, or DFI, is a pan-Asian retailer with more than 10,700 outlets and 218,000 employees as of 30 June 2023.The group operates several well-known brands such as Giant, Cold Storage, and Guardian across formats such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, health and beauty, and convenience stores.The business has seen an encouraging recovery amid improved trading conditions in 1H 2023 as the Hong Kong border reopens and footfall increases across all its stores.Revenue remained flat year on year at US$4.6 billion.However, DFI reported a turnaround for 1H 2023 with an underlying net profit of US$33 million, reversing the US$52 million net loss in the prior year.The Health and Beauty division saw a 20% like-for-like sales growth for the half-year but was dragged down by weakness in grocery retail and home furnishings.Free cash flow for the retail group climbed nearly 28% year on year from US$283.6 million in 1H 2022 to US$362.6 million in 1H 2023.As a result, DFI tripled its interim dividend to US$0.03, which was similar to the total dividend paid for 2022.Together with last year’s final dividend of US$0.02, the trailing 12-month dividend adds up to US$0.05, giving its shares a trailing dividend yield of 1.9%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":517,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":204205552480440,"gmtCreate":1690863115788,"gmtModify":1690863119812,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/204205552480440","repostId":"2356956884","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2356956884","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1690853490,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2356956884?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-08-01

(NYSE:BABA). My investment thesis includes price action, volume, momentum, and relative strength. I will also identify a stop loss and potential price targets. Let’s dissect the chart below.</p><p>Chart 1 – BABA weekly chart with 30-week EMA, Percentage Price Oscillator, Volume, &amp; Relative Strength</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/32ef5c7873501e0a5c54d40fd3f1191b\" alt=\"www.stockcharts.com\" title=\"www.stockcharts.com\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"475\"/><span>www.stockcharts.com</span></p><p>When I analyze charts for potential trades, I start with looking at price action. I am looking at the structure of the market. Looking at Chart 1 above the second pane shows the weekly price action of BABA with its 30-week exponential moving average (&#39;EMA&#39;) in blue. Anytime the price of the stock on a chart goes from the upper left-hand corner to the lower right-hand corner that stock is in a downtrend. It is not good to own a stock that is trending lower. You can see the stock stays below its falling 30-week EMA for all of 2021, and most of 2022. When I see this type of price action I look to see where the market structure changes from a declining stock to one that is basing or in an accumulation phase. The basing or accumulation phase of BABA’s market structure shows itself inside the green box. Three things indicate that BABA has changed from a declining stock to a stock that is basing. The first signal is the 30-week EMA starts to flatten out. You can see this change starting in December 2022. Before this time, the 30-week EMA was steadily declining. The second indication is that with the flat 30-weeek EMA, prices start to stay inside the range. In this case BABA trades anywhere from the upper $70s to about $105. BABA has been inside this price range from November 2022 to the present. What is happening inside this price range? That is the third indication. Institutions or smart money are showing signs of accumulating BABA. Looking at the third pane of Chart 1, you can see weekly volume with its 10-week EMA in blue. Inside the green box, volume starts to increase when the price of the stock goes higher for the week. Volume often pops above the 10-week EMA on bullish weeks. That type of volume pattern shows that smart money is likely accumulating BABA for their portfolios. I believe they would only do that because they think that BABA is undervalued at this price level, and they expect BABA to be higher in the future. They see BABA going from a stock that is basing to a stock that is moving higher in the future in my view.</p><p>Momentum is another aspect that I consider when building an investment thesis. The top pane of Chart 1 shows the Percentage Price Oscillator (&#39;PPO&#39;) which is a way to measure the momentum of stock movement. It is easy to understand. Momentum is bullish for a stock whenever the black line is above the red line. This shows that buyers are consistently moving the stock higher. Another indication of bullish price momentum is when the black line is above the zero line or the center line of the chart. This just occurred this week. The black line has a reading of 0.174 meaning it is above zero. PPO has both types of bullish momentum. It is important to understand that PPO is a confirmation indicator. PPO doesn’t lead prices higher. PPO just helps us understand good price momentum from bad. I want to own stocks that have bullish price momentum and BABA does.</p><p>Relative strength is the last indicator I use for building an investment thesis. I want to own stocks that are outperforming the SP 500 index. Doing so allows you to potentially beat the SP 500 index. The fourth pane of Chart 1 shows the relative strength ratio of BABA to the SP 500 index. The black line shows the price ratio, and the blue line is the 30-week EMA of that ratio. Reading the indicator is simple. When the black line is declining that shows that BABA is underperforming the SP 500 index. When the black line is rising that shows that BABA is outperforming the SP 500 index. When I look at this indicator today, I see neither underperformance nor outperformance. Since mid-June, relative strength has been climbing which could continue. That is a positive to me.</p><p>I think the price structure of BABA is bullish. BABA has now traded above its 30-week EMA for the last four weeks. Its 30-week EMA is starting to turn higher which is also bullish. BABA has bullish momentum and looks to be improving momentum wise. Relative strength has been flat for the year but has been showing signs of improvement since mid-June. I will buy shares this week.</p><p>In terms of potential price targets, I see two. The first is $120 which is where price met resistance in March 2022, June 2022, and January 2023. The second potential price target is $180 where price was decisively rejected in October 2021.</p><p>Whenever I place a trade, I always have a stop loss. This is a price that shows me my investment thesis was wrong. I see two ways to do this with BABA. Usually, any weekly close below the 30-week EMA would force me to close my position. However, this idea doesn’t work when buying a stock in a price range. As I mentioned earlier, BABA is in a price range here and can easily undercut its 30-week EMA. This wouldn’t mean it is ready to start another prolonged decline. In this case, I will reduce exposure to BABA if it declines more than 10% from my buy price. If BABA continues to rise from here, I will look to add more money to the position.</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>Time To Build A Position In Alibaba</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\">\nTime To Build A Position In Alibaba\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-08-01 09:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621901-time-to-build-a-position-in-alibaba><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryI believe now is a good time to build a position in Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.The price action, volume, momentum, and relative strength indicators suggest that Alibaba is in a basing phase and ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621901-time-to-build-a-position-in-alibaba\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621901-time-to-build-a-position-in-alibaba","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2356956884","content_text":"SummaryI believe now is a good time to build a position in Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.The price action, volume, momentum, and relative strength indicators suggest that Alibaba is in a basing phase and smart money is accumulating the stock.I see potential price targets of $120 and $180, with a stop loss strategy in place.monsitjIn this article, I will outline why I think that now is a good time to build a position in Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.

A sterling set of numbers</h2><p>Total revenue for the airline rose 14% year on year for 1Q FY2024 to S$4.5 billion, lifted by robust demand for air travel through the mid-year school holidays and the commencement of the summer season.</p><p>Operating profit jumped by 35.8% year on year to S$755 million while net profit soared 98.4% year on year to S$734 million.</p><p>The better performance was contributed by a 33.4% year on year decrease in fuel prices that helped to reduce net fuel cost by 17.3% year on year for the group.</p><p>SIA also recorded a net finance income for 1Q FY2024 compared to a net finance charge in the same period last year.</p><p>Its associates delivered a share of profits versus losses which further helped the airline’s net profit to grow much more than its operating profit.</p><h2 id=\"id_1508974503\">2. Passenger load factor at a record-high</h2><p>SIA saw passenger traffic grow 49% year on year with strong demand across all route regions and market segments.</p><p>Both Singapore Airlines and Scoot, SIA’s low-cost carrier, ferried 8.4 million passengers in 1Q FY2024, 65.5% higher than a year ago.</p><p>The increase in traffic outpaced the airline’s 32.4% year-on-year capacity expansion, resulting in the passenger load factor registering a record high of 88.9%.</p><p>In contrast, SIA’s cargo segment performance continued its downward trend as demand for air freight softened.</p><p>Cargo load factor plunged by 13.7 percentage points to 51.8% as loads dipped by 11.3% year on year.</p><p>Yields on cargo also fell 44.3% compared to the same period last year but remained 50% above pre-pandemic levels.</p><h2 id=\"id_1193943926\">3.

A sterling set of numbersTotal revenue for the airline rose 14% year on year for 1Q FY2024 to S$4.5 billion, lifted by robust demand for air travel through the mid-year school holidays and the commencement of the summer season.Operating profit jumped by 35.8% year on year to S$755 million while net profit soared 98.4% year on year to S$734 million.The better performance was contributed by a 33.4% year on year decrease in fuel prices that helped to reduce net fuel cost by 17.3% year on year for the group.SIA also recorded a net finance income for 1Q FY2024 compared to a net finance charge in the same period last year.Its associates delivered a share of profits versus losses which further helped the airline’s net profit to grow much more than its operating profit.2. Passenger load factor at a record-highSIA saw passenger traffic grow 49% year on year with strong demand across all route regions and market segments.Both Singapore Airlines and Scoot, SIA’s low-cost carrier, ferried 8.4 million passengers in 1Q FY2024, 65.5% higher than a year ago.The increase in traffic outpaced the airline’s 32.4% year-on-year capacity expansion, resulting in the passenger load factor registering a record high of 88.9%.In contrast, SIA’s cargo segment performance continued its downward trend as demand for air freight softened.Cargo load factor plunged by 13.7 percentage points to 51.8% as loads dipped by 11.3% year on year.Yields on cargo also fell 44.3% compared to the same period last year but remained 50% above pre-pandemic levels.3. Steadily expanding its fleetThe airline continued to expand its fleet with the addition of four aircraft during the quarter.As of 30 June 2023, the group had 199 aircraft in its operating fleet comprising 192 passenger aircraft and seven freighters.With this delivery, SIA still has 99 aircraft on its order book and continues to maintain one of the youngest fleets in the airline industry with an average age of six years and 11 months.4. Adding more destinations to its networkWith China’s reopening in January, Scoot has added seven destinations to its network during 1Q FY2024.Collectively, both Singapore Airlines and Scoot now serve 17 destinations in China.SIA’s passenger network covered 116 destinations in 36 countries as of 30 June 2023, seven more than the 109 destinations covered three months ago.The carrier’s cargo network added three destinations to increase its network from 118 to 121 destinations in 38 countries and territories.SIA’s group capacity remains on track to reach an average of close to 90% of pre-pandemic levels by March 2024.5. A mixed outlookManagement expects demand for air travel to remain strong for all route regions throughout the summer peak.The group is well-positioned to take advantage of the robust demand as it increases its network in the coming months.Scoot resumed flights to Jinan and Shenzhen in July and will serve Nanchang from August.Additional flights are also slated for destinations such as Chiang Mai, Davao, and Jeddah.The group will also resume weekly flights to Busan in late August and increase flight frequencies to Hong Kong, Japan, and Thailand from October 2023 through March 2024.However, the airline cautioned that competition will intensify in the coming months as other airlines inject capacity to serve more international routes.Cargo demand will also remain weak as inflation and weak economic conditions persist.Elsewhere, geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainties could also put pressure on the airline industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":622,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":203908149600256,"gmtCreate":1690788913928,"gmtModify":1690788917911,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/203908149600256","repostId":"2354681949","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2354681949","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1690789800,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2354681949?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-07-31 15:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Companies That Could Be Worth $1 Trillion by 2030","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2354681949","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The trillion-dollar club only has a handful of stocks in it so far, but these three could join before the end of the decade.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 id=\"id_363119568\" style=\"text-align: start;\">KEY POINTS</h2><ul><li><p>There are currently five companies on U.S. stock exchanges with market caps of $1 trillion or more.</p></li><li><p>There are dozens of companies within striking distance, but I feel that these three have an excellent chance of reaching the $1 trillion level by the end of the decade.</p></li><li><p>They currently have market caps ranging from $460 billion to $765 billion and have room to grow.</p></li></ul><p>As of this writing, there are five U.S. companies with market capitalizations of $1 trillion or higher: <strong>Apple</strong> (NASDAQ: AAPL), <strong>Microsoft</strong> (NASDAQ: MSFT), <strong>Amazon.com</strong> (NASDAQ: AMZN), <strong>Alphabet</strong> (NASDAQ: GOOGL)(NASDAQ: GOOG), and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA).

While there is no way to know for sure what will happen in the economy and stock market between now and then, all three of these stocks are in excellent positions to produce strong long-term returns for investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":545,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":203858267332864,"gmtCreate":1690776585922,"gmtModify":1690776588991,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/203858267332864","repostId":"2355628035","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2355628035","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":1690757894,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2355628035?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-07-31 06:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple, Amazon, AMD, and More Earnings, July Jobs Report: What to Know This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2355628035","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"It will bethe busiest week of second-quarter earnings season, witha third of S&P 500 companies scheduled to report.

For <strong>Advanced Micro Devices</strong> (NASDAQ:AMD), the Q2&#39;23 earnings report from <strong>Intel</strong> (INTC) provides great views on the surging demand for AI chips and a rebound in PC demand crucial for AMD. My investment thesis remains ultra Bullish on AMD with the stock still trading down around $112 while other chips companies have rallied to multi-year highs.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f0cda4835bcc74af9fa201094c53b36b\" alt=\"Source: Finviz\" title=\"Source: Finviz\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"421\"/><span>Source: Finviz</span></p><h2 id=\"id_4169033520\">PC Rebound</h2><p>The most immediate signal from Intel beating Q2&#39;23 estimates and guiding up for Q3 is the rebound in PC demand. Most importantly, the inventory correction appears over with OEMs no longer digesting chip inventory.</p><p>Back in Q3&#39;22, AMD shocked the market by cutting PC revenue estimates by $1 billion. The company quickly went from $2 billion in quarterly CPU sales for PCs to less than $1 billion.</p><p>Intel still reported Q2 Client Computing revenue was down 12% YoY to $6.8 billion, but the number was up $1.0 billion sequentially. The chip giant guided up Q3 revenue to $13.4 billion, up $0.5 billion sequentially.</p><p>In Q1&#39;23, AMD reported that client revenues had fallen further to only $739 million. AMD CPU revenues are now far over $1 billion per quarter below the peak levels providing substantial upside potential when the PC market normalizes.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/109f09e99e82d6ac37add4ac4b5dc6d9\" alt=\"Source: The Next Platform\" title=\"Source: The Next Platform\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\"/><span>Source: The Next Platform</span></p><h2 id=\"id_2420818419\">AI Rescue</h2><p>Intel discussed a mixed picture for their business in the near term due to AI.

For Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD), the Q2'23 earnings report from Intel (INTC) provides great views on the surging demand for AI chips and a rebound in PC demand crucial for AMD. My investment thesis remains ultra Bullish on AMD with the stock still trading down around $112 while other chips companies have rallied to multi-year highs.Source: FinvizPC ReboundThe most immediate signal from Intel beating Q2'23 estimates and guiding up for Q3 is the rebound in PC demand. Most importantly, the inventory correction appears over with OEMs no longer digesting chip inventory.Back in Q3'22, AMD shocked the market by cutting PC revenue estimates by $1 billion. The company quickly went from $2 billion in quarterly CPU sales for PCs to less than $1 billion.Intel still reported Q2 Client Computing revenue was down 12% YoY to $6.8 billion, but the number was up $1.0 billion sequentially. The chip giant guided up Q3 revenue to $13.4 billion, up $0.5 billion sequentially.In Q1'23, AMD reported that client revenues had fallen further to only $739 million. AMD CPU revenues are now far over $1 billion per quarter below the peak levels providing substantial upside potential when the PC market normalizes.Source: The Next PlatformAI RescueIntel discussed a mixed picture for their business in the near term due to AI. The chip giant is seeing a wallet share shift from the sever CPU spend towards AI chips.The move is both good and bad for AMD. The company has the MI300 AI GPU chip hitting the market in Q4 providing a strong competitor to the booming demand for the H100 from Nvidia (NVDA), but the chip isn't out on the market yet.In the near term, AMD may see some suppressed data center demand while heading into 2024.

As part of a slew of new targets announced on July 3 in its “sharpened Asean-Greater China focus”, OCBC<strong> </strong>aims to reap $3 billion in total incremental revenue over the next three years until 2025.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">To this end, OCBC aims to double its investment banking revenue in three years, and achieve more than 500 regional mandates for cash management over the next five years.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">OCBC aims to intensify its coverage of Hong Kong’s small businesses, targeting to onboard 26,000 new small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) there over the next three years, which will add to its global wholesale banking customer base of 320,000 customers.</p><p>By 2025, OCBC aims to double assets under management (AUM) of its Premier Banking and Premier Private Client segments for Greater China. OCBC expects to grow its pool of bankers in line with this regional push; the bank says it will double its number of relationship managers serving high-net worth customers in Greater China by 2025.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">According to OCBC, this is in line with its projections from 2021, when the bank said it would increase the number of corporate and commercial bankers by 30% to about 400 by 2024.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Bank of Singapore, OCBC’s private banking subsidiary, also aims to increase its AUM to US$145 billion ($196.08 billion) by end-2025, having tripled its AUM in the decade between 2013 and 2022 to US$124 billion today. To reach this new AUM target, Bank of Singapore says it will grow its team of relationship managers from some 400 currently to 500 by then.</p><p>The strategic refresh is accompanied by a unified brand across its core markets; from 4Q2023, OCBC Wing Hang Bank (China) Limited will go by OCBC Bank Limited in mainland China, subject to regulatory approval.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In addition, OCBC Wing Hang Bank Limited is now OCBC Bank (Hong Kong) Limited and Banco OCBC Weng Hang, S.A. is now OCBC Bank (Macau) Limited.</p><p>With these legal name changes in Greater China, OCBC has launched a unified refreshed logo for its banking entities, retiring the word “Bank” from its brand image after 34 years. OCBC NISP, OCBC’s Indonesian subsidiary, will adopt the same logo in 4Q2023. The logo for Bank of Singapore, however, remains unchanged.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In tandem with the new refreshed logo, the bank has launched a new tagline — “For now, and beyond”.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Speaking in Hong Kong at the unveiling of OCBC’s new strategy, group chief executive officer Helen Wong says the bank recognises the potential of business flows between Asean and Greater China. “Over the years, we have built a strong franchise and put ourselves in a very good position to capture these flows. The effects of China’s reopening post-pandemic, the rise of Asean for the China plus one strategy and other geopolitical factors have amplified this potential.”</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">OCBC first entered mainland China in 1925 through its Xiamen branch. Since then, OCBC has been operating without interruption in the country.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">OCBC acquired Wing Hang in 2014 for $6.2 billion, marking the largest acquisition in the bank&#39;s history and besting the $2.9 billion it paid for Keppel Capital in 2001.</p><p>Today, OCBC owns $93 billion in total assets across Greater China, in addition to a 20% stake in Bank of Ningbo. Between 2013 and 2022, OCBC’s Greater China income contribution more than tripled to 20% of total income, while Asean ceded some ground to 75% from 90%. OCBC’s Greater China and Asean operations booked $2.5 billion and $9.5 billion in total income respectively last year.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The bank’s Greater China operations count some 4,500 staff across 67 branches in 17 cities in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

As part of a slew of new targets announced on July 3 in its “sharpened Asean-Greater China focus”, OCBC aims to reap $3 billion in total incremental revenue over the next three years until 2025.To this end, OCBC aims to double its investment banking revenue in three years, and achieve more than 500 regional mandates for cash management over the next five years.OCBC aims to intensify its coverage of Hong Kong’s small businesses, targeting to onboard 26,000 new small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) there over the next three years, which will add to its global wholesale banking customer base of 320,000 customers.By 2025, OCBC aims to double assets under management (AUM) of its Premier Banking and Premier Private Client segments for Greater China. OCBC expects to grow its pool of bankers in line with this regional push; the bank says it will double its number of relationship managers serving high-net worth customers in Greater China by 2025.According to OCBC, this is in line with its projections from 2021, when the bank said it would increase the number of corporate and commercial bankers by 30% to about 400 by 2024.Bank of Singapore, OCBC’s private banking subsidiary, also aims to increase its AUM to US$145 billion ($196.08 billion) by end-2025, having tripled its AUM in the decade between 2013 and 2022 to US$124 billion today. To reach this new AUM target, Bank of Singapore says it will grow its team of relationship managers from some 400 currently to 500 by then.The strategic refresh is accompanied by a unified brand across its core markets; from 4Q2023, OCBC Wing Hang Bank (China) Limited will go by OCBC Bank Limited in mainland China, subject to regulatory approval.In addition, OCBC Wing Hang Bank Limited is now OCBC Bank (Hong Kong) Limited and Banco OCBC Weng Hang, S.A. is now OCBC Bank (Macau) Limited.With these legal name changes in Greater China, OCBC has launched a unified refreshed logo for its banking entities, retiring the word “Bank” from its brand image after 34 years. OCBC NISP, OCBC’s Indonesian subsidiary, will adopt the same logo in 4Q2023. The logo for Bank of Singapore, however, remains unchanged.In tandem with the new refreshed logo, the bank has launched a new tagline — “For now, and beyond”.Speaking in Hong Kong at the unveiling of OCBC’s new strategy, group chief executive officer Helen Wong says the bank recognises the potential of business flows between Asean and Greater China. “Over the years, we have built a strong franchise and put ourselves in a very good position to capture these flows. The effects of China’s reopening post-pandemic, the rise of Asean for the China plus one strategy and other geopolitical factors have amplified this potential.”OCBC first entered mainland China in 1925 through its Xiamen branch. Since then, OCBC has been operating without interruption in the country.OCBC acquired Wing Hang in 2014 for $6.2 billion, marking the largest acquisition in the bank's history and besting the $2.9 billion it paid for Keppel Capital in 2001.Today, OCBC owns $93 billion in total assets across Greater China, in addition to a 20% stake in Bank of Ningbo. Between 2013 and 2022, OCBC’s Greater China income contribution more than tripled to 20% of total income, while Asean ceded some ground to 75% from 90%. OCBC’s Greater China and Asean operations booked $2.5 billion and $9.5 billion in total income respectively last year.The bank’s Greater China operations count some 4,500 staff across 67 branches in 17 cities in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

It’s also a reason to sell the stock.</p><p>Tesla’s shares have soared this year, but they’re also exceptionally volatile. The stock has ranged from about $102 to $315 over the past year. The $213 gap is more than 100% of the average closing price over that span. The same calculation for Apple (AAPL) yields about 40% of the average price</p><p>With Tesla, it’s often easy, or easier, to see why the stock is moving up or down. It’s not always simple, though, to understand why it moves so much for the given reason. Consider the recent run. Coming into Thursday trading, Tesla shares are up about 42% since May 25. Two things happened that day. First, Nvidia (NVDA) stock soared 24% after reporting its AI-related business was doing much better than anyone expected. Then, Tesla and Ford Motor (F) announced a deal allowing Ford drivers to use Tesla’s charging stations.</p><p>Both events, like the new @Tesla_AI Twitter account, crystallized the idea that Tesla is more than just a car company, something key for Tesla valuation. Tesla, after all, is worth about three Toyota Motors (TM), despite selling a fraction of the vehicles. In addition to EVs, Elon Musk’s car company owns its own dealership, has a chain of charging stations, offers AI-developed software to help cars drive themselves, and sells solar roofs, utility-scale battery storage products, and even car insurance.</p><p>Given Nvidia’s 40% rise since its blowout quarterly report, excitement over AI is likely responsible for much of Tesla’s gains. That makes sense, but there are limits. Tesla shares now trade for about 77 times 2023 estimated earnings, up from 25 times when <em>Barron’s</em> wrote positively about the stock early this year. Simply put, the AI frenzy has made the shares a little pricey for our tastes.</p><p>Wall Street is starting to see things our way. Tesla’s recent run has driven two downgrades from analysts over the past two days. Both Morgan Stanley and Barclays took their ratings to Equal Weight from Overweight. Both brokers cited the AI-related hype that had inflated the stock’s valuation.</p><p>There are still car-related factors to worry about too, specifically Tesla’s second-quarter sales, which are due to be reported in early July.

It’s also a reason to sell the stock.Tesla’s shares have soared this year, but they’re also exceptionally volatile. The stock has ranged from about $102 to $315 over the past year. The $213 gap is more than 100% of the average closing price over that span. The same calculation for Apple (AAPL) yields about 40% of the average priceWith Tesla, it’s often easy, or easier, to see why the stock is moving up or down. It’s not always simple, though, to understand why it moves so much for the given reason. Consider the recent run. Coming into Thursday trading, Tesla shares are up about 42% since May 25. Two things happened that day. First, Nvidia (NVDA) stock soared 24% after reporting its AI-related business was doing much better than anyone expected. Then, Tesla and Ford Motor (F) announced a deal allowing Ford drivers to use Tesla’s charging stations.Both events, like the new @Tesla_AI Twitter account, crystallized the idea that Tesla is more than just a car company, something key for Tesla valuation. Tesla, after all, is worth about three Toyota Motors (TM), despite selling a fraction of the vehicles. In addition to EVs, Elon Musk’s car company owns its own dealership, has a chain of charging stations, offers AI-developed software to help cars drive themselves, and sells solar roofs, utility-scale battery storage products, and even car insurance.Given Nvidia’s 40% rise since its blowout quarterly report, excitement over AI is likely responsible for much of Tesla’s gains. That makes sense, but there are limits. Tesla shares now trade for about 77 times 2023 estimated earnings, up from 25 times when Barron’s wrote positively about the stock early this year. Simply put, the AI frenzy has made the shares a little pricey for our tastes.Wall Street is starting to see things our way. Tesla’s recent run has driven two downgrades from analysts over the past two days. Both Morgan Stanley and Barclays took their ratings to Equal Weight from Overweight. Both brokers cited the AI-related hype that had inflated the stock’s valuation.There are still car-related factors to worry about too, specifically Tesla’s second-quarter sales, which are due to be reported in early July. Wall Street expects roughly 445,000 units shipped during the three months ended on June 30, a record and up from about 423,000 vehicles sold in the first quarter. If Tesla can top those forecasts, the stock could rise further. Miss, and watch out.That makes this is as good a time as any to sell a little bit of Tesla. Barron’s recommended buying the stock on Jan. 6, just after it closed at $113.06. Wednesday, shares closed at $259.46, up almost 130% from the pick level. We aren’t giving up on shares. Just using volatility, hopefully, to our advantage. Nor are we worried about foregoing a little profit. When a stock doubles, after all, an investor can sell half their stake and be left with the value of the original position, with some profits banked if things go sideways.With a stock like Tesla, we consider that a win-win.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":177,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":762018235236528,"gmtCreate":1687516345295,"gmtModify":1687516349065,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/762018235236528","repostId":"2345050746","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":205,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":188312361636016,"gmtCreate":1687000353786,"gmtModify":1687000357722,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":14,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/188312361636016","repostId":"2344411353","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":382,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187796895662208,"gmtCreate":1686876665714,"gmtModify":1686876669204,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187796895662208","repostId":"1105763470","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":273,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187515874894088,"gmtCreate":1686807870151,"gmtModify":1686807874168,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582969710070724","idStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187515874894088","repostId":"2343992138","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2343992138","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1686805641,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2343992138?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-06-15

I don&#39;t know your financial needs, your preferred style of investing, or what industries you&#39;re best equipped to follow and understand. So there is no simple one-size-fits-all slam dunk answer to that question.</p><p>That being said, I can show you some stocks that may fit one or more of your specific needs right now. The companies below are all fantastic long-term investments, found in very different corners of Wall Street. You must decide which idea (or ideas) might be best for your unique situation.</p><p>So I&#39;ll give you one high-octane growth stock, one ultra-robust value investment, one cash-generating dividend champion, and one index-tracking exchange-traded fund (ETF) for the ultimate in diversification. If you&#39;re a momentum investor, always chasing the next get-rich-quick penny stock, I&#39;ll let you explore that unfortunate strategy elsewhere. This list is all about investing, not gambling.</p><p>On that note, let&#39;s get on with the good stuff. Here are three great stocks and one low-cost ETF that you can buy for less than $1,000 today.</p><h3>The best growth stock: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ROKU\">Roku</a></h3><p>After a marketwide retreat from growth stocks in 2022, plenty of great picks are available today. Still, nothing beats the combination of deep discounts and fully intact long-term growth prospects that I see in Roku.</p><p>It starts with one simple fact: Digital streaming is the future of video-based entertainment.</p><p>In the long run, I expect the market share of broadcast and cable TV to land at zero percent. Likewise, DVD and Blu-ray disks will soon be as quaintly dated as VHS tapes or slide projectors. I can&#39;t call a global winner in the digital content wars, and several large services and studios will likely share the streaming market.</p><p>But Roku investors don&#39;t really care whether <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFLX\">Netflix </a> beats Disney+ or the other way around. As long as every competitor supports the Roku media player platform, all that matters is the continued growth of the streaming market as a whole.</p><p>Netflix likes to remind investors how much further it can grow before running into saturated markets. Last week&#39;s fourth-quarter report featured this helpful chart, for example:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc1fe9a8700d29f03b857d081ff9e0af\" tg-width=\"1880\" tg-height=\"918\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Even the U.S. market, which is the world&#39;s oldest and most mature streaming forum, is still dominated by old-school TV channels. The rest of the world has a lot of catching up to do.</p><p>So Roku and its streaming-service partners are addressing a massive worldwide marketplace where sales and profits can multiply many times over. Roku is the clear leader in service-neutral media player hardware and software in North America, which sets the tone for the rest of the world. The company&#39;s international expansion has only just begun, once again outlining a tremendous opportunity for long-term growth.</p><p>At the same time, many Roku investors saw a couple of quarters with slower top-line growth last year and jumped to the conclusion that the growth story is over. So Roku shares are trading 65% lower over the last 52 weeks and 89% below the all-time highs from the summer of 2021.</p><p>This mismatch between bearish market perception and bullish business prospects is so wrong, I&#39;m not sure whether I should laugh or cry. Until further notice, I keep buying more Roku shares as long as the unreasonable price cuts are available. I&#39;ll laugh all the way to the bank in a few years as the long-term growth thesis plays out.</p><p>If you only wanted my single best idea in today&#39;s market, Roku is it.</p><h3>The best value stock: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a></h3><p>I love the bargain-bin discount on Roku shares, but not every investor is looking for a long-term growth investment in a patch of dramatic short-term market turbulence. If you&#39;re more interested in rock-solid value creation with a milder service of recent price cuts, I suggest checking out Alphabet (GOOG 1.56%) (GOOGL 1.90%) instead.</p><p>You know Alphabet as the parent company of Google -- a peerless cash machine built on online search and advertising services. The stock currently trades more than 30% below its peak price from November 2021, weighed down by economic concerns and the rise of potential competition from ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence tools.</p><p>If Roku is the safest growth story I know, Alphabet is the most obvious long-term survivor on the market.</p><p>This company was literally designed to roll with the punches and lead every technology revolution from the front line. Alphabet is quietly grooming a multitude of alternative business ideas to take the baton when web-based search and advertising has run its course. The most helpful option so far has been the Google Cloud service, which generated 10% of Alphabet&#39;s total sales in the third quarter of 2022. Ten or twenty years from now, we may have forgotten about the Google brand. At the same time, we&#39;ll depend on the Waymo self-driving car service every day and Verily Life Sciences may have found the proverbial cure for cancer -- all under Alphabet&#39;s business umbrella.</p><p>This company will outlive us all, helping investors build lasting wealth along the way. Alphabet&#39;s $1.2 trillion market cat is the third largest stock market footprint today, based on the modest valuation ratios of 19 times earnings and 4.5 times sales. Alphabet&#39;s assured longevity makes its stock a value investor&#39;s dream.</p><h3>The best income investment: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMT\">American Tower</a></h3><p>If you&#39;re just looking for a reliable dividend-paying stock, whose quarterly payouts are powered by robust cash flows, my best recommendation is cell tower manager and operator American Tower.</p><p>Wireless communications are not only here to stay, but growing more important over time. As a result, American Tower&#39;s services should be in high demand for decades to come. The company&#39;s revenue streams are incredibly robust due to its clients&#39; multi-year contracts.</p><p>American Tower rides its thriving market to tremendous growth in sales and profits over the year. One other line item keeps rising much faster, though. Quarterly dividends have risen by 500% in the last decade, showing no sign of a slowdown:</p><p>Let&#39;s say you picked up some American Tower shares ten years ago, when the stock was priced at $80 and offered an annual dividend payout of $0.90 per share. That policy supported a modest dividend yield of 1.1% at the time.</p><p>Today, the shares you bought in 2013 qualify for annual dividend payments of $5.69 per share. If you reinvested your dividend checks in more American Tower shares over the years, you&#39;ll also have 22% more shares than you started with. The effective yield on your original investment works out to 8.7% today.</p><p>I see no reason why American Tower shouldn&#39;t continue to boost its cash-sharing payouts in the future, setting you up for even greater quarterly income streams in the long run. Meanwhile, the stock price is back where it was in the summer of 2019. Grabbing a few shares on the cheap today should serve your income-generating portfolio well as the cash profits and dividend payments keep rising.</p><h3>The best index ETF: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SPY\">Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF</a></h3><p>Finally, some investors don&#39;t want to pick individual stocks while others reserve a portion of their portfolio for funds tracking one of the major stock market indexes. This is the ticket to instant diversification, shielding you from the risk of any particular stock posting disappointing returns. Exchange-traded funds locked to a broad index are perfect for this task, since their highly automated operation results in extremely low management fees. This way, your returns will closely resemble your chosen market index, leaving more money in your wallet.</p><p>There are many respectable choices, but I keep returning to the Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (VOO 0.28%). This exchange-traded fund mirrors the popular S&amp;P 500 (^GSPC 0.25%) market index with management fees of just 0.03%. For every $1,000 of returns this ETF generates for you, Vanguard&#39;s fund managers will keep $0.003 (one-third of a cent) to cover their costs. In other words, the management service is essentially free of charge.</p><p>It&#39;s cool to beat the market and all, but there is nothing wrong with simply matching the wealth-building gains of the S&amp;P 500 index with zero stock-picking research and no management fees to speak of.</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>The Best Stocks to Invest $1,000 In Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe Best Stocks to Invest $1,000 In Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-01-30 23:34 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/01/29/the-best-stocks-to-invest-1000-in-right-now/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThere is no silver bullet to address the needs of every investor type with a single stock.Most investors should look at media-streaming technology expert Roku first.Other tempting options in...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/01/29/the-best-stocks-to-invest-1000-in-right-now/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"标普500ETF","GOOGL":"谷歌A","AMT":"美国电塔","ROKU":"Roku Inc"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/01/29/the-best-stocks-to-invest-1000-in-right-now/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2307248334","content_text":"KEY POINTSThere is no silver bullet to address the needs of every investor type with a single stock.Most investors should look at media-streaming technology expert Roku first.Other tempting options in today’s market include Alphabet, American Tower, and the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF.$1,000 can go a long way toward building an effective stock portfolio that meets your personal needs for financial planning.The best stocks to invest $1,000 in today will vary from person to person. I don't know your financial needs, your preferred style of investing, or what industries you're best equipped to follow and understand. So there is no simple one-size-fits-all slam dunk answer to that question.That being said, I can show you some stocks that may fit one or more of your specific needs right now. The companies below are all fantastic long-term investments, found in very different corners of Wall Street. You must decide which idea (or ideas) might be best for your unique situation.So I'll give you one high-octane growth stock, one ultra-robust value investment, one cash-generating dividend champion, and one index-tracking exchange-traded fund (ETF) for the ultimate in diversification. If you're a momentum investor, always chasing the next get-rich-quick penny stock, I'll let you explore that unfortunate strategy elsewhere. This list is all about investing, not gambling.On that note, let's get on with the good stuff. Here are three great stocks and one low-cost ETF that you can buy for less than $1,000 today.The best growth stock: RokuAfter a marketwide retreat from growth stocks in 2022, plenty of great picks are available today. Still, nothing beats the combination of deep discounts and fully intact long-term growth prospects that I see in Roku.It starts with one simple fact: Digital streaming is the future of video-based entertainment.In the long run, I expect the market share of broadcast and cable TV to land at zero percent. Likewise, DVD and Blu-ray disks will soon be as quaintly dated as VHS tapes or slide projectors. I can't call a global winner in the digital content wars, and several large services and studios will likely share the streaming market.But Roku investors don't really care whether Netflix  beats Disney+ or the other way around. As long as every competitor supports the Roku media player platform, all that matters is the continued growth of the streaming market as a whole.Netflix likes to remind investors how much further it can grow before running into saturated markets. Last week's fourth-quarter report featured this helpful chart, for example:Even the U.S. market, which is the world's oldest and most mature streaming forum, is still dominated by old-school TV channels. The rest of the world has a lot of catching up to do.So Roku and its streaming-service partners are addressing a massive worldwide marketplace where sales and profits can multiply many times over. Roku is the clear leader in service-neutral media player hardware and software in North America, which sets the tone for the rest of the world. The company's international expansion has only just begun, once again outlining a tremendous opportunity for long-term growth.At the same time, many Roku investors saw a couple of quarters with slower top-line growth last year and jumped to the conclusion that the growth story is over. So Roku shares are trading 65% lower over the last 52 weeks and 89% below the all-time highs from the summer of 2021.This mismatch between bearish market perception and bullish business prospects is so wrong, I'm not sure whether I should laugh or cry. Until further notice, I keep buying more Roku shares as long as the unreasonable price cuts are available. I'll laugh all the way to the bank in a few years as the long-term growth thesis plays out.If you only wanted my single best idea in today's market, Roku is it.The best value stock: AlphabetI love the bargain-bin discount on Roku shares, but not every investor is looking for a long-term growth investment in a patch of dramatic short-term market turbulence. If you're more interested in rock-solid value creation with a milder service of recent price cuts, I suggest checking out Alphabet (GOOG 1.56%) (GOOGL 1.90%) instead.You know Alphabet as the parent company of Google -- a peerless cash machine built on online search and advertising services. The stock currently trades more than 30% below its peak price from November 2021, weighed down by economic concerns and the rise of potential competition from ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence tools.If Roku is the safest growth story I know, Alphabet is the most obvious long-term survivor on the market.This company was literally designed to roll with the punches and lead every technology revolution from the front line. Alphabet is quietly grooming a multitude of alternative business ideas to take the baton when web-based search and advertising has run its course. The most helpful option so far has been the Google Cloud service, which generated 10% of Alphabet's total sales in the third quarter of 2022. Ten or twenty years from now, we may have forgotten about the Google brand. At the same time, we'll depend on the Waymo self-driving car service every day and Verily Life Sciences may have found the proverbial cure for cancer -- all under Alphabet's business umbrella.This company will outlive us all, helping investors build lasting wealth along the way. Alphabet's $1.2 trillion market cat is the third largest stock market footprint today, based on the modest valuation ratios of 19 times earnings and 4.5 times sales. Alphabet's assured longevity makes its stock a value investor's dream.The best income investment: American TowerIf you're just looking for a reliable dividend-paying stock, whose quarterly payouts are powered by robust cash flows, my best recommendation is cell tower manager and operator American Tower.Wireless communications are not only here to stay, but growing more important over time. As a result, American Tower's services should be in high demand for decades to come. The company's revenue streams are incredibly robust due to its clients' multi-year contracts.American Tower rides its thriving market to tremendous growth in sales and profits over the year.

Quarterly dividends have risen by 500% in the last decade, showing no sign of a slowdown:Let's say you picked up some American Tower shares ten years ago, when the stock was priced at $80 and offered an annual dividend payout of $0.90 per share. That policy supported a modest dividend yield of 1.1% at the time.Today, the shares you bought in 2013 qualify for annual dividend payments of $5.69 per share.

Grabbing a few shares on the cheap today should serve your income-generating portfolio well as the cash profits and dividend payments keep rising.The best index ETF: Vanguard S&P 500 ETFFinally, some investors don't want to pick individual stocks while others reserve a portion of their portfolio for funds tracking one of the major stock market indexes.

That’s not supposed to be the pecking order, some holders in the bonds insist.</p><p>“This just makes no sense,” said Patrik Kauffmann, a fixed-income portfolio manager at Aquila Asset Management, who holds the notes. “Shareholders should get zero” because “it’s crystal clear that AT1s are senior to stocks.”</p><p>One UK bank CEO put it even more bluntly: The Swiss have killed this key corner of funding for lenders, he said, asking not to be named because the situation is sensitive. His comments underscore how the global financial community is on edge after the UBS takeover of Credit Suisse, which came on the heels of the collapse of three regional US banks.</p><p>Prices of AT1s in Asia slid on Monday, with debt securities of some lenders in the region dropping by record amounts. Bank of East Asia Ltd.’s 5.825% perpetual dollar note slumped 9.4 cents on the dollar to about 80 cents, which would be a record decline if maintained through the end of Monday’s trading, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.</p><p>HSBC Holdings Plc’s 8% AT1 fell about 5 cents Monday to below 90 cents, according to credit traders. That would be its biggest daily drop since it began trading early this month.</p><p>It’s not that the bonds weren’t supposed to take some of the blow from the Credit Suisse collapse. In fact, that’s in large part what they were created to do when they were first conceived by European regulators in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, as a way to impose losses on creditors when banks start to fail without resorting to taxpayer money.</p><p>Yet, by privileging equity investors over holders of the riskiest bank securities, it’s left the bond community confused and rattled about who ranks first when it comes to the hierarchy of investor claims the next time a lender is in trouble.</p><p>With litigation potentially brewing, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. traders were preparing to take bids on claims against Credit Suisse’s riskiest bonds for investors betting they can ultimately recover some value.</p><p>“Wiping out AT1 holders while paying substantial amounts to shareholders goes against all the resolution principles and rules that were agreed internationally after 2008,” according to Jérôme Legras, head of research at Axiom Alternative Investments, who said the firm owns AT1 bonds issued by Credit Suisse.</p><p>From the perspective of Swiss officials, it was able to force a write-off of the securities because it needed to boost Credit Suisse’s capital and resolve its liquidity problems. The bonds typically face a haircut whenever government support is offered to a lender facing solvency problems.</p><p>Yet market participants say the move will likely lead to a disruptive industry-wide repricing. The market for new AT1 bonds will likely go into deep freeze and the cost of risky bank funding risks jumping higher given the regulatory decision caught some creditors off-guard, say traders.</p><p>That would give bank treasurers fewer options to raise capital at a time of market stress, with the Federal Reserve and five other central banks announcing coordinated action on Sunday to boost dollar liquidity.</p><p>“The AT1 market will be shut now for new issuance for a while,” said Luke Hickmore, investment director at abrdn Plc, who holds a small number of the Credit Suisse notes. “We will all be parsing which securities in AT1 space have a similar trigger to CS’s and which don’t, which banks need to issue AT1s and which don’t.”</p><p>Even before the wipeout, rising worries about the financial system caused the average AT1 note to tumble over the last two weeks, with pricing indicated at almost 20% below face value — one of the steepest discounts on record.</p><h2>‘Poorly Designed’</h2><p>AT1s were dreamt up by regulators to act as an additional buffer of capital between shareholders and bondholders. Yet the legal framework has always been subject to uncertainty and some controversy.</p><p>The latest move by policy makers shows that the “structure has proved to be poorly designed and will be probably phased out,” said Francesco Castelli, head of fixed income at Banor Capital.</p><p>The decision by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority is “probably legal,” he said, adding he expects Credit Suisse’s AT1 obligations to trade at close to zero tomorrow. “Holders will only have some recovery chance in court.” Castelli owns bonds issued by the bank but declined to say if he has a position in the AT1s.</p><p>Still, the decision to wipe out the holders of those bonds gets support from John McClain, portfolio manager at Brandywine Global Investment Management.</p><p>“It’s absolutely the right thing to do to prevent moral hazard from creeping into that part of the market. Those bonds were created for moments like this — similar to catastrophe bonds.”</p><h2>Counterparty Risk</h2><p>The acquisition of Credit Suisse comes after the failure of a number of US regional banks this month sent concerns rippling through the financial system. The Zurich-based lender’s bonds and shares plunged and counterparties on trades began buying protection against a possible default.</p><p>A collapse of the bank would have caused huge collateral damage to the Swiss financial industry, and a risk of contagion for UBS and other banks, the country’s finance minister Karin Keller-Sutter said at a press conference on Sunday.</p><p>“The bankruptcy of a global systematically important bank would have caused irreparable economic turmoil in Switzerland and throughout the world,” she said.</p><p>Traders quickly made clear they had some skepticism about the deal. UBS’s credit default swaps, derivatives often used to gauge a borrower’s credit risk, widened by at least 40 basis points to 215 bps for five-year contracts, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

That’s not supposed to be the pecking order, some holders in the bonds insist.“This just makes no sense,” said Patrik Kauffmann, a fixed-income portfolio manager at Aquila Asset Management, who holds the notes. “Shareholders should get zero” because “it’s crystal clear that AT1s are senior to stocks.”One UK bank CEO put it even more bluntly: The Swiss have killed this key corner of funding for lenders, he said, asking not to be named because the situation is sensitive. His comments underscore how the global financial community is on edge after the UBS takeover of Credit Suisse, which came on the heels of the collapse of three regional US banks.Prices of AT1s in Asia slid on Monday, with debt securities of some lenders in the region dropping by record amounts. Bank of East Asia Ltd.’s 5.825% perpetual dollar note slumped 9.4 cents on the dollar to about 80 cents, which would be a record decline if maintained through the end of Monday’s trading, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.HSBC Holdings Plc’s 8% AT1 fell about 5 cents Monday to below 90 cents, according to credit traders. That would be its biggest daily drop since it began trading early this month.It’s not that the bonds weren’t supposed to take some of the blow from the Credit Suisse collapse. In fact, that’s in large part what they were created to do when they were first conceived by European regulators in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, as a way to impose losses on creditors when banks start to fail without resorting to taxpayer money.Yet, by privileging equity investors over holders of the riskiest bank securities, it’s left the bond community confused and rattled about who ranks first when it comes to the hierarchy of investor claims the next time a lender is in trouble.With litigation potentially brewing, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. traders were preparing to take bids on claims against Credit Suisse’s riskiest bonds for investors betting they can ultimately recover some value.“Wiping out AT1 holders while paying substantial amounts to shareholders goes against all the resolution principles and rules that were agreed internationally after 2008,” according to Jérôme Legras, head of research at Axiom Alternative Investments, who said the firm owns AT1 bonds issued by Credit Suisse.From the perspective of Swiss officials, it was able to force a write-off of the securities because it needed to boost Credit Suisse’s capital and resolve its liquidity problems. The bonds typically face a haircut whenever government support is offered to a lender facing solvency problems.Yet market participants say the move will likely lead to a disruptive industry-wide repricing. The market for new AT1 bonds will likely go into deep freeze and the cost of risky bank funding risks jumping higher given the regulatory decision caught some creditors off-guard, say traders.That would give bank treasurers fewer options to raise capital at a time of market stress, with the Federal Reserve and five other central banks announcing coordinated action on Sunday to boost dollar liquidity.“The AT1 market will be shut now for new issuance for a while,” said Luke Hickmore, investment director at abrdn Plc, who holds a small number of the Credit Suisse notes. “We will all be parsing which securities in AT1 space have a similar trigger to CS’s and which don’t, which banks need to issue AT1s and which don’t.”Even before the wipeout, rising worries about the financial system caused the average AT1 note to tumble over the last two weeks, with pricing indicated at almost 20% below face value — one of the steepest discounts on record.‘Poorly Designed’AT1s were dreamt up by regulators to act as an additional buffer of capital between shareholders and bondholders. Yet the legal framework has always been subject to uncertainty and some controversy.The latest move by policy makers shows that the “structure has proved to be poorly designed and will be probably phased out,” said Francesco Castelli, head of fixed income at Banor Capital.The decision by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority is “probably legal,” he said, adding he expects Credit Suisse’s AT1 obligations to trade at close to zero tomorrow. “Holders will only have some recovery chance in court.” Castelli owns bonds issued by the bank but declined to say if he has a position in the AT1s.Still, the decision to wipe out the holders of those bonds gets support from John McClain, portfolio manager at Brandywine Global Investment Management.“It’s absolutely the right thing to do to prevent moral hazard from creeping into that part of the market. Those bonds were created for moments like this — similar to catastrophe bonds.”Counterparty RiskThe acquisition of Credit Suisse comes after the failure of a number of US regional banks this month sent concerns rippling through the financial system. The Zurich-based lender’s bonds and shares plunged and counterparties on trades began buying protection against a possible default.A collapse of the bank would have caused huge collateral damage to the Swiss financial industry, and a risk of contagion for UBS and other banks, the country’s finance minister Karin Keller-Sutter said at a press conference on Sunday.“The bankruptcy of a global systematically important bank would have caused irreparable economic turmoil in Switzerland and throughout the world,” she said.Traders quickly made clear they had some skepticism about the deal. UBS’s credit default swaps, derivatives often used to gauge a borrower’s credit risk, widened by at least 40 basis points to 215 bps for five-year contracts, according to people with knowledge of the matter. They asked not to be named as the information is private.As part of the takeover, the Swiss central bank is offering a 100 billion-franc liquidity assistance to UBS and the government is granting a 9 billion-franc guarantee for potential losses from assets it is taking on. That comes after Credit Suisse was left deeply wounded by everything from the blowup of Archegos to the collapse of a suite of funds it ran with Greensill Capital.“Hindsight is wonderful,” Credit Suisse Chairman Axel Lehmann said at Sunday’s press conference. “We were overtaken by legacy situations, by risks that materialized last year. We were affected by a market model that no longer works in this environment.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":57,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940506607,"gmtCreate":1677995875710,"gmtModify":1677995879489,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582969710070724","authorIdStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":22,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940506607","repostId":"2316492950","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2316492950","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1677987004,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2316492950?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2023-03-05 11:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Want $1 Million in Retirement?

With the appropriate strategy, allocation, and investing time horizon, this isn&#39;t an impossible goal by any means. As you diversify your basket of stocks to work toward this achievement, it&#39;s important to select quality businesses across a wide variety of sectors with multiple catalysts to sustain continued returns over a period of years.</p><p>For example, if you were to invest $200,000 in the stock market right now, promising companies with innovative, industry-leading businesses ripe for future growth could foreseeably compound that investment by 5 times or more in the next decade. With that said, here are two such stocks that could help you build out your retirement plan.</p><h2>1. Upstart</h2><p><b>Upstart</b> is dealing with extremely choppy market waters right now; however, looking beyond these events to the company&#39;s long-term prospects, an altogether brighter picture forms. To understand why, one has to take a deeper look into the inner workings of Upstart and its business, which is driven by artificial intelligence and machine learning. The company operates a lending marketplace that revolves around its innovative technology platform, which leverages more than 1,600 data points to assess the creditworthiness of any given consumer. In other words, it doesn&#39;t just the FICO score but atypical factors like education and income to help determine this.</p><p>By using a far broader range of factors to determine whether an applicant ought to be approved for a loan, as well as the platform&#39;s predictive capabilities that calibrate to the economic environment to assess the likelihood of that applicant to default, Upstart has not only been able to democratize the long-stale lending arena but also lower risk for institutional partners with more inclusive and real-time data.</p><p>Moreover, because Upstart&#39;s platform is constantly learning, this not only enables it to adjust to the most current economic conditions, but this also means that more of the company&#39;s loan applications are being handled on a fully automated basis.</p><p>In Upstart&#39;s full-year 2022 earnings report, management said that 82% of all loan applications on the platform were fully automated -- the highest level of automation its model has reached in the history of the company. Moreover, 88% of all small-dollar loans are now automated. On top of that, as of the end of 2022, Upstart&#39;s model had learned more in the prior seven months than it had in the entire 30 months before that.</p><p>During 2022, Upstart&#39;s number of bank and credit union partners soared 120% from 2021, and its network of auto dealers jumped more than 90% year over year. Bear in mind, the auto lending market alone represents a near $800 billion opportunity, and as of the end of 2022, the company had the second-fastest-growing auto retail software in the country.</p><p>As Upstart&#39;s platform is constantly learning, a challenging economic environment is inevitably going to mean that it approves fewer loans than it would in a situation where the risk of default is lower, but this would also indicate the exact opposite would happen in a more buoyant economic landscape. At the same time, the combination of institutional partners funding far fewer loans right now and a drop in consumers applying for loans has contributed to the declines in Upstart&#39;s top and bottom lines recently. While investors will need to continue watching these factors closely in the quarters ahead, it&#39;s important to differentiate broader economic headwinds from headwinds tied directly to Upstart&#39;s business.</p><p>The fact that the company is expanding market share, boosting platform automation, and rapidly growing its partner network even in a decidedly bleak lending environment is notable, and could prime the business for a relatively rapid upward trajectory once the economic environment improves and interest rates come down. Even a conservative position in this top growth stock could yield tremendous results over the next five to 10 years when paired with a wide selection of investments in a buy-and-hold investment portfolio. That potential may be too intriguing for some investors to overlook while the stock&#39;s currently trading down.</p><h2>2. Teladoc</h2><p><b>Teladoc</b> investors -- and I am one of them -- have faced more than their fair share of volatile market days over the past year. While shares of this healthcare stock are still down 64% from 12 months ago, they&#39;ve risen roughly 15% since the start of 2023. The market has been far less kind toward unprofitable, growth-oriented businesses in the current economic environment, and Teladoc currently fits squarely into both categories.</p><p>The full 2022 year saw Teladoc achieve some notable goals, while falling short on other fronts. Revenue totaled $2.4 billion for the 12-month period, an 18% increase from 2021. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) was down year over year, but still hit $247 million. Teladoc also continues to see rapid adoption across a wide range of its healthcare services, with its teletherapy arm BetterHelp alone posting revenue growth of 29% year over year in the final quarter of 2022.</p><p>Teladoc reported a third impairment charge in Q4 of 2022 after having significantly shaved its net losses in the prior quarter. Specifically, it ended the 12-month period with a net loss of $13.7 billion, almost entirely due to impairment charges related to writing down the value of its 2020 Livongo acquisition. Here&#39;s the thing, though: While this loss is unpleasant to look at as an investor, these were non-cash impairment charges. In other words, paper-only net losses, which are not the same as actual operational losses.</p><p>Even though Teladoc overpaid for that acquisition, its contribution to its overall mission of disrupting the still underserved chronic care solutions market remains a notable green flag for the long-term future of the integration of these two businesses. CEO Jason Gorevic noted the following about its chronic care segment and broader platform expansion on the company&#39;s 2022 earnings call:</p><blockquote>Access to our platform is available to over 80 million individuals in the U.S. today, primarily through our relationships with employers and health plans. Over 50% of that population has access to more than one of our products. And when I look at our suite of chronic care solutions, 30% of enrollees are now utilizing more than one chronic care product. Our BetterHelp offering provided over 1 million individuals with access to mental healthcare over the past year, many of whom are unlikely to have received any care at all, if not for our services.</blockquote><blockquote>Our platform enabled over 22 million visits across specialties last year and over 0.5 billion digital health interactions with an unmatched consumer experience and a net promoter score over 60. That breadth and scale is unrivaled in the industry and gives us a strong foundation on which to expand.</blockquote><p>Teladoc remains the premier telehealth platform in the U.S., and the increasing diversity and adoption of its offerings bode well for its ability to continue expanding its market share in the years ahead. Management has been clear that moving back to profitability is a key goal for the future. The investments Teladoc is making now could yield robust returns for the company and its shareholders in the years ahead. As such, given Teladoc&#39;s long trajectory for growth, forward-thinking investors may find any dips in the stock to be too good to pass up.</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>Want $1 Million in Retirement?

TeladocTeladoc investors -- and I am one of them -- have faced more than their fair share of volatile market days over the past year. While shares of this healthcare stock are still down 64% from 12 months ago, they've risen roughly 15% since the start of 2023. The market has been far less kind toward unprofitable, growth-oriented businesses in the current economic environment, and Teladoc currently fits squarely into both categories.The full 2022 year saw Teladoc achieve some notable goals, while falling short on other fronts. Revenue totaled $2.4 billion for the 12-month period, an 18% increase from 2021. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) was down year over year, but still hit $247 million. Teladoc also continues to see rapid adoption across a wide range of its healthcare services, with its teletherapy arm BetterHelp alone posting revenue growth of 29% year over year in the final quarter of 2022.Teladoc reported a third impairment charge in Q4 of 2022 after having significantly shaved its net losses in the prior quarter. Specifically, it ended the 12-month period with a net loss of $13.7 billion, almost entirely due to impairment charges related to writing down the value of its 2020 Livongo acquisition. Here's the thing, though: While this loss is unpleasant to look at as an investor, these were non-cash impairment charges. In other words, paper-only net losses, which are not the same as actual operational losses.Even though Teladoc overpaid for that acquisition, its contribution to its overall mission of disrupting the still underserved chronic care solutions market remains a notable green flag for the long-term future of the integration of these two businesses. CEO Jason Gorevic noted the following about its chronic care segment and broader platform expansion on the company's 2022 earnings call:Access to our platform is available to over 80 million individuals in the U.S. today, primarily through our relationships with employers and health plans. Over 50% of that population has access to more than one of our products. And when I look at our suite of chronic care solutions, 30% of enrollees are now utilizing more than one chronic care product. Our BetterHelp offering provided over 1 million individuals with access to mental healthcare over the past year, many of whom are unlikely to have received any care at all, if not for our services.Our platform enabled over 22 million visits across specialties last year and over 0.5 billion digital health interactions with an unmatched consumer experience and a net promoter score over 60. That breadth and scale is unrivaled in the industry and gives us a strong foundation on which to expand.Teladoc remains the premier telehealth platform in the U.S., and the increasing diversity and adoption of its offerings bode well for its ability to continue expanding its market share in the years ahead. Management has been clear that moving back to profitability is a key goal for the future. The investments Teladoc is making now could yield robust returns for the company and its shareholders in the years ahead. As such, given Teladoc's long trajectory for growth, forward-thinking investors may find any dips in the stock to be too good to pass up.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":110,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9953424969,"gmtCreate":1673312377752,"gmtModify":1676538816108,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582969710070724","authorIdStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":18,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9953424969","repostId":"1182576862","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":62,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9981218871,"gmtCreate":1666513229893,"gmtModify":1676537764427,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582969710070724","authorIdStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9981218871","repostId":"2277232495","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2277232495","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1666501378,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2277232495?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-10-23 13:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Powerhouse Passive-Income Stocks That Each Yield More Than 4%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2277232495","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Investing in equal parts of these three industrial and energy stocks gives an investor a dividend yield of 4.7%.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Red-hot inflation, geopolitical tensions, an uncertain outlook for consumer spending and the housing market -- the list of stock market headwinds goes on and on.

Here&#39;s what makes each a great buy now.</p><h2>The key to the investment case is now the restructuring plan</h2><p><b>Lee Samaha</b> <b>(Stanley Black &amp; Decker): </b>It&#39;s been an awful year for hardware and tools company Stanley Black &amp; Decker.

The supply chain issues persisted, as did raw material inflation.

It&#39;s a compelling proposition, but perhaps one better looked at after the company&#39;s most recent results, due at the end of October.</p><h2>A well-rounded energy company with the highest yield in its peer group</h2><p><b>Daniel Foelber (TotalEnergies): </b>Today, big oil companies are investing in alternative and renewable energy, diversifying their portfolios away from oil and gas. However, there are still only a handful of American and European integrated oil majors that play in the upstream, midstream, and downstream spaces. French multinational TotalEnergies is one of the six majors alongside<b> BP</b>, <b>Shell</b>, <b>Equinor</b>, <b>Chevron</b>, and <b>ExxonMobil</b>. Yet Total is the only European major that didn&#39;t cut its dividend during the worst of the oil and gas crash of 2020.</p><p>Since then, BP, Shell, and Equinor have made sizable dividend raises, and Chevron and ExxonMobil have continued making moderate increases to maintain their status as Dividend Aristocrats. But Total still has the highest yield of the integrated majors -- with a yield of 5.5% (although taxes and fees apply for U.S. investors earning dividends from foreign companies).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f7a8db264fe60f27b7c5314075963c3b\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"666\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>TTE Dividend Yield data by YCharts</p><p>What&#39;s more, Total is an excellent value, with the second-lowest price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of the majors at just 6.5. Investors should keep in mind that P/E ratios for the integrated oil major group as a whole are below their long-term averages despite their stock prices being up. The discounted valuation is likely due to expectations that profits will come down as oil and gas prices stabilize.</p><p>Aside from its high dividend yield and low valuation, Total is in a good position to take advantage of strong oil and gas prices and new investments in lower carbon solutions. Total has one of the lowest costs of production of the oil majors. Its aggressive investments in liquefied natural gas (LNG) have given it a 10% share of the global LNG market as Total works toward making natural gas 50% of its sales mix by 2030.</p><p>Total has also invested heavily in solar energy -- expanding its installed capacity from 0.7 gigawatts to 10 gigawatts between 2017 and 2021.</p><p>In sum, Total has an efficient oil and gas portfolio, a growing LNG and renewable energy portfolio, a discounted valuation, and the highest dividend yield of the oil majors.</p><h2>Build a better passive income stream with Brookfield</h2><p><b>Scott Levine (Brookfield Infrastructure): </b>Paying more at the pump, at the supermarket, at mom-and-pop shops can leave you feeling frustrated that your purchasing power has plummeted. Pinching the pursestrings may help alleviate the strain, but it&#39;s very likely that it won&#39;t be enough. Many investors, consequently, are turning to strong dividend stocks to boost their passive income -- especially those with appealing yields like the 4.4% forward dividend yield that Brookfield Infrastructure currently offers.</p><p>A global leader in infrastructure, Brookfield owns and operates a variety of assets that produce stable cash flows. Provided the company meets its funds from operations forecast and generates $2.70 per unit in 2022, the company will have increased its funds from operations at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11% from 2012 to 2022.</p><p>In addition to electricity and natural gas utilities, the company&#39;s assets include data infrastructure, transportation (such as rail operations and toll roads), and midstream energy pipelines and storage facilities. And the portfolio is poised to grow even larger. Among other projects that the company has in its pipeline, Brookfield Infrastructure is working with <b>Intel</b> to build a $30 billion semiconductor manufacturing facility in Arizona.</p><p>In addition to the stock&#39;s attractive yield, income investors will also find management&#39;s commitment to increasingly rewarding investors alluring. During a recent investor presentation, Brookfield Infrastructure reiterated a distribution growth target of 5% to 9% annually over the long term. For those who question whether this goal is realistic, a glance at the company&#39;s previous performance should lend some credibility. Should the company achieve its 2022 forecast and return $1.44 per unit in distributions, it will represent a 9% CAGR in its distributions per unit since 2012.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Powerhouse Passive-Income Stocks That Each Yield More Than 4%</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 Powerhouse Passive-Income Stocks That Each Yield More Than 4%\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-23 13:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/22/3-powerhouse-passive-income-stocks-high-yield-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Red-hot inflation, geopolitical tensions, an uncertain outlook for consumer spending and the housing market -- the list of stock market headwinds goes on and on.

Companies involved in artificial intelligence are at the forefront of a rapidly growing industry. Indeed, these companies are revolutionizing many sectors, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and manufacturing.</p><p>Notably, since <b>OpenAI</b> introduced ChatGPT in late 2022, investors have taken on a renewed interest.</p><p>AI is one of the fastest-growing industries, and the demand for AI products and services is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. AI has the potential to disrupt traditional industries and create new markets and opportunities for businesses that adopt it early. Additionally, AI stockscan help diversify an investor’s portfolio, reducing their overall risk exposure. Thus, there’s plenty of potential reasons to invest in the sector.</p><p>Here are three of the best options in this space right now, in my view.</p><p><b>Microsoft (MSFT)</b></p><p><b>Microsoft</b> (NASDAQ: <b>MSFT</b>) has invested heavily in research and development when it comes to artificial intelligence. The company’s cloud computing platform, Azure, offers a range of AI and machine learning tools, including cognitive services, Bot Service, and Azure Machine Learning. The early integration of AI technology across the company makes Microsoft a top player in the AI industry.</p><p>However, Microsoft has recently garnered plenty of headlines as the company added ChatGPT to its Bing search engine. Microsoft hopes that ChatGPT will bring new relevance to its search engine, weakening <b>Google’s</b> (NASDAQ: <b>GOOG</b>) dominance over search.</p><p>OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, is backed by Microsoft, who has poured billions into the project. Microsoft is hopeful that ChatGPT will be able to provide recent, relevant information when paired with Bing. ChatGPT alone is limited in that it allows for dated answers to prompts.</p><p>But there have also been strange reports about the search engine, including a bizarre conversation between Bing and a New York Times columnist. This technology is still in its beta form, but there’s plenty of potential – that much is clear.</p><p><b>Intuitive Surgical (ISRG)</b></p><p><b>Intuitive Surgical</b> (NASDAQ: <b>ISRG</b>) is a medical technology company that has pioneered the development of robotic-assisted surgical systems.

Companies involved in artificial intelligence are at the forefront of a rapidly growing industry. Indeed, these companies are revolutionizing many sectors, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and manufacturing.Notably, since OpenAI introduced ChatGPT in late 2022, investors have taken on a renewed interest.AI is one of the fastest-growing industries, and the demand for AI products and services is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. AI has the potential to disrupt traditional industries and create new markets and opportunities for businesses that adopt it early. Additionally, AI stockscan help diversify an investor’s portfolio, reducing their overall risk exposure. Thus, there’s plenty of potential reasons to invest in the sector.Here are three of the best options in this space right now, in my view.Microsoft (MSFT)Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has invested heavily in research and development when it comes to artificial intelligence. The company’s cloud computing platform, Azure, offers a range of AI and machine learning tools, including cognitive services, Bot Service, and Azure Machine Learning. The early integration of AI technology across the company makes Microsoft a top player in the AI industry.However, Microsoft has recently garnered plenty of headlines as the company added ChatGPT to its Bing search engine. Microsoft hopes that ChatGPT will bring new relevance to its search engine, weakening Google’s (NASDAQ: GOOG) dominance over search.OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, is backed by Microsoft, who has poured billions into the project. Microsoft is hopeful that ChatGPT will be able to provide recent, relevant information when paired with Bing. ChatGPT alone is limited in that it allows for dated answers to prompts.But there have also been strange reports about the search engine, including a bizarre conversation between Bing and a New York Times columnist. This technology is still in its beta form, but there’s plenty of potential – that much is clear.Intuitive Surgical (ISRG)Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) is a medical technology company that has pioneered the development of robotic-assisted surgical systems. The da Vinci Surgical System uses AI algorithms to enhance surgical precision, accuracy, and safety. The system has been widely adopted by hospitals and surgical centers worldwide. That strong position suggests that as AI technology advances, Intuitive Surgical is well-positioned to maintain its leadership.Intuitive Surgical is at the intersection of several big questions.

All for the better, in our view, since digital financial services only contributed a meager 13.7% to the company's top line and 19.4% of the bottom line in the latest quarter.Assuming a small overhaul in the investment arm's headcount and operating expenses in FQ2'23, we may see a more focused and leaner company by H2'23, potentially contributing to its improved gross and operating margins as the macroeconomic outlook lifts.For example, the regional inflation rate in South East Asia has fallen to 4.8% by March 2023, compared to the peak of 6.1% in December 2022. Singapore's CPI has also declined to 5.74% by April 2023, compared to the 6.62% reported in January 2023 and 6.12% in 2022.Given the sustained downtrend, we may optimistically project a CPI of ~4% by the end of 2023, nearing the Monetary Authority of Singapore's projection of between 3.5% and 4.5%. This cadence may potentially ease the inflationary pressures while loosening the discretionary spending in the region.So, Is SE Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?SE 5Y EV/RevenueS&P Capital IQAnd, it is for this reason that we believe the pessimism embedded in SE's NTM EV/ Revenue is unwarranted, since the stock is now overly moderated to 2.29x, compared to its 5Y mean of 7.15x and pre-pandemic mean of 4.7x.While its top-line expansion may have decelerated, it is mostly attributed to the elevated interest rates and peak recessionary fears. These headwinds are only temporary, similarly impacting its e-commerce peers, Amazon (AMZN) and MercadoLibre (MELI).As a result of these promising developments and its depressed prices, we are finally rerating SE as a Buy due to the attractive risk-reward ratio. Then again, they must also be aware of the stock's elevated short interest of 7.27%, implying moderate volatility ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":382,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9970162205,"gmtCreate":1684166516707,"gmtModify":1684166519900,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582969710070724","authorIdStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9970162205","repostId":"1142664653","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9036546550,"gmtCreate":1647152259291,"gmtModify":1676534199408,"author":{"id":"3582969710070724","authorId":"3582969710070724","name":"OO_898","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9fb3c360d5d7711641a868a144192fc7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582969710070724","authorIdStr":"3582969710070724"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9036546550","repostId":"1160469103","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1160469103","kind":"news","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":1647147111,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1160469103?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-03-13 12:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Short-Sellers Are Scarce and That’s Some of The Best News the Stock Market’s Had Lately","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1160469103","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"The U.S. stock market should be given the benefit of the doubt over the next 12 months, according to","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The U.S. stock market should be given the benefit of the doubt over the next 12 months, according to an analysis of short sellers’ recent transactions.</p><p>This upbeat message may incline you to view short sellers more positively.

The Federal Reserve could declare victory in its inflation fight and ease off its monetary policy tightening sooner rather than later in 2023, setting off rallies across asset classes.</p><p>So goes the bullish thinking.</p><p>That narrative was on display this past Friday when stock indexes surged to end a choppy holiday-shortened week higher. The S&amp;P 500 finished the week up 1.45%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 1.46%, and the Nasdaq Composite ticked up 0.98%.</p><p>If all that sounds familiar, it should. The Fed has stated that it plans to increase interest rates in early 2023, then hold there for some time. Federal-funds futures pricing, however, implies a peak in rates by the spring, then cuts in the back half of 2023. It&#39;s another sign that investors expect the Fed to change its tune. They hope Friday&#39;s jobs report sent the Fed a message -- its job is almost done.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d8d660bff719b54ee732ddb0da0da2f9\" tg-width=\"955\" tg-height=\"636\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>One data point, however, won&#39;t be enough to change the Fed&#39;s mind. The market will be looking to December&#39;s consumer price index this coming Thursday as its next macro bogey -- one that will provide additional fodder for the Fed&#39;s next policy meeting in February. The rate of inflation is expected to fall to 6.5% year over year from 7.1% in November.</p><p>But it&#39;s not just about the economic data. This coming Friday brings the start of fourth-quarter earnings season, with some major companies -- JPMorgan Chase (ticker: JPM), Bank of America (BAC), UnitedHealth Group (UNH), and Delta Air Lines (DAL) among them -- kicking off the festivities. The vast majority of the S&amp;P 500 will report over the following month and a half.</p><p>Few are expecting a good fourth quarter. In aggregate, S&amp;P 500 companies are expected to report their first losing quarter since 2020. Earnings per share are forecast to decline by 2.2% year over year, to $53.87, after roughly 4.4% growth in the third quarter and 8.4% in the second quarter, per IBES data from Refinitiv. The consensus fourth-quarter outlook became much gloomier as 2022 proceeded -- at the start of last year, analysts had penciled in 14.1% year-over-year earnings growth for the period.</p><p>Analysts&#39; current estimate would bring 2022 S&amp;P 500 EPS to $219.80, which would be up 5.6% for the year. It&#39;s likely to end up a bit better than that, as most companies tend to beat consensus estimates. Revenue, though, is forecast to rise 4.1% year over year in the fourth quarter, to $3.7 trillion, and 11.2% for all of 2022, to $13.8 trillion. The fact that sales are rising but earnings are falling is a sign that corporate profit margins appear to have peaked for this cycle.</p><p>The earnings slump won&#39;t hit all companies equally. The energy and industrial sectors are expected to be outliers, delivering EPS growth of 65% and 43%, respectively, from a year earlier. Those are among the cyclically sensitive companies that suffered the most during the Covid-19 recession and are still enjoying the rebound.</p><p>On the opposite end of the spectrum are materials, where earnings are forecast to drop by 22% as prices of many industrial inputs have returned to earth; communication services, down 21% due to an expected drop in advertising spending and continued streaming losses at many media companies; and consumer discretionary, down 15% on potentially weaker spending in 2023. Tech, which makes up close to a quarter of the S&amp;P 500&#39;s EPS, is expected to show a 9% decline in earnings in the fourth quarter as wage costs balloon at many software companies, enterprise demand slows, and semiconductors remain in a downturn. Expectations are so low that the fourth-quarter results could be strong relative to forecasts.</p><p>But those beats might not matter if companies can&#39;t provide at least a decent outlook for 2023.</p><p>The bottom-up consensus -- gleaned by summing the average earnings estimates from all individual stock and sector analysts for each of the companies in the S&amp;P 500 -- is for EPS to grow by 4.4% to $229.52 in 2023, according to Refinitiv, up from about $220 in 2022. Conversely, the top-down view of Wall Street strategists surveyed by Barron&#39;s in December calls for a 2.7% decline in S&amp;P 500 profits in 2023 to an average of $214 per share.</p><p>The difference is in the profit margins.

It&#39;s likely to end up a bit better than that, as most companies tend to beat consensus estimates. Revenue, though, is forecast to rise 4.1% year over year in the fourth quarter, to $3.7 trillion, and 11.2% for all of 2022, to $13.8 trillion. The fact that sales are rising but earnings are falling is a sign that corporate profit margins appear to have peaked for this cycle.</p><p>The earnings slump won&#39;t hit all companies equally. The energy and industrial sectors are expected to be outliers, delivering EPS growth of 65% and 43%, respectively, from a year earlier. Those are among the cyclically sensitive companies that suffered the most during the Covid-19 recession and are still enjoying the rebound.</p><p>On the opposite end of the spectrum are materials, where earnings are forecast to drop by 22% as prices of many industrial inputs have returned to earth; communication services, down 21% due to an expected drop in advertising spending and continued streaming losses at many media companies; and consumer discretionary, down 15% on potentially weaker spending in 2023. Tech, which makes up close to a quarter of the S&amp;P 500&#39;s EPS, is expected to show a 9% decline in earnings in the fourth quarter as wage costs balloon at many software companies, enterprise demand slows, and semiconductors remain in a downturn.
