The Binance.US account was registered under the name of BAM Trading, the U.S. exchange&#39;s operating company, according to the records. Company messages show the transfers to Merit Peak began in late 2020.</p><p>Reuters couldn&#39;t determine the reason for the transfers or whether any of the money belonged to Binance.US customers. The exchange&#39;s public terms of use at the time said its customers&#39; dollar deposits were held at Silvergate and a Nevada-based custodian firm called Prime Trust LLC. Prime Trust made $650 million in wire transfer deposits into the Binance.US account during the quarter, the bank records show.</p><p>A Binance.US spokesperson, Kimberly Soward, did not address Reuters&#39; questions about the transfers detailed in the bank records. In a statement, she said Reuters&#39; reporting used &#34;outdated information&#34; without elaborating further. She added: &#34;Merit Peak is neither trading nor providing any kind of services on the Binance.US platform&#34; and &#34;only Binance.US employees have access&#34; to the bank accounts of the U.S. company. Soward didn&#39;t specify when Merit Peak&#39;s activities ceased.</p><p>The Binance global exchange, Binance CEO Zhao and Prime Trust did not respond to detailed questions about the transfers. A Silvergate spokesperson said the bank does not comment on individual customers.</p><p>Binance.US&#39;s executives were concerned by the outflows because the transfers were taking place without their knowledge, according to messages reviewed by Reuters. The CEO of Binance.US at the time, Catherine Coley, wrote to a Binance finance executive in late 2020 asking for an explanation for the transfers, calling them &#34;unexpected&#34; and saying &#34;no one mentioned them.&#34;</p><p>&#34;Where are those funds coming from?&#34; she wrote in one message.</p><p>In a response to Coley, seen by Reuters, the Binance executive, Susan Li, did not explain the transfers. Li wrote that Merit Peak was a &#34;vendor that facilitated trading&#34; on Binance.US and also provided loans and capital injections to the American exchange.</p><p>Coley, who left Binance.US later in 2021, didn&#39;t respond to questions sent via her legal representatives. Li also didn&#39;t respond.</p><p>Reuters was unable to trace what became of the $400 million. An unspecified portion of the money was subsequently sent to the Silvergate account of a Seychelles-incorporated firm called Key Vision Development Limited, according to a person with direct knowledge of the transfers. A 2021 corporate filing by another Binance unit identified CEO Zhao as a director of Key Vision. A former Silvergate executive confirmed that Key Vision held an account at Silvergate at the time.</p><p>Key Vision&#39;s local registered agent did not respond to requests for comment.</p><p>The money transfers suggest that the global Binance exchange, which is not licensed to operate in the United States, controlled the finances of Binance.US, despite maintaining that the American entity is entirely independent and operates as its &#34;US partner.&#34; The Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission have sought information from Binance and Binance.US about their relationship as part of ongoing investigations into potential breaches of financial rules, including whether Binance is using the American exchange as cover for doing business in the U.S. The SEC and the Justice Department declined to comment for this article.</p><p>Reuters reported last year that Binance created Binance.US as a de facto subsidiary in 2019 in order to draw the scrutiny of U.S. regulators away from the global exchange. Binance.US&#39;s operator, California-based BAM Trading Services, is registered with the U.S. Treasury as a money services business, a category that includes foreign currency traders and money transmitters. BAM&#39;s beneficial owner is Zhao.</p><p>Binance.US&#39;s chief financial officer, Jasmine Lee, told the Wall Street Journal on Feb. 8 that &#34;the extent of our relationship&#34; with Binance.com is a shared name and a licensing agreement for technology. &#34;We do not transfer our funds back and forth,&#34; Lee said.</p><p>Susan Li, the Binance finance executive, had access to the Binance.US Silvergate account, however, along with several senior Binance.US employees, according to the messages and the person with direct knowledge of the transfers. In one message, a Binance.US finance manager asked Li to give another Binance.US employee authority to approve payments from the account. A 2021 Binance.US document that described the American exchange&#39;s technology architecture identified Silvergate as a payment channel controlled at the time by Binance.com.</p><p>The Binance.US account records reviewed by Reuters detail each transaction between January and the end of March 2021. Reuters has not reviewed account records for other periods.</p><p>The transfers to Merit Peak took place on the bank&#39;s proprietary Silvergate Exchange Network (SEN), which Binance.US joined in November 2020 to serve its corporate clients.

The Binance.US account was registered under the name of BAM Trading, the U.S. exchange&#39;s operating company, according to the records. Company messages show the transfers to Merit Peak began in late 2020.</p><p>Reuters couldn&#39;t determine the reason for the transfers or whether any of the money belonged to Binance.US customers. The exchange&#39;s public terms of use at the time said its customers&#39; dollar deposits were held at Silvergate and a Nevada-based custodian firm called Prime Trust LLC. Prime Trust made $650 million in wire transfer deposits into the Binance.US account during the quarter, the bank records show.</p><p>A Binance.US spokesperson, Kimberly Soward, did not address Reuters&#39; questions about the transfers detailed in the bank records. In a statement, she said Reuters&#39; reporting used &#34;outdated information&#34; without elaborating further. She added: &#34;Merit Peak is neither trading nor providing any kind of services on the Binance.US platform&#34; and &#34;only Binance.US employees have access&#34; to the bank accounts of the U.S. company. Soward didn&#39;t specify when Merit Peak&#39;s activities ceased.</p><p>The Binance global exchange, Binance CEO Zhao and Prime Trust did not respond to detailed questions about the transfers. A Silvergate spokesperson said the bank does not comment on individual customers.</p><p>Binance.US&#39;s executives were concerned by the outflows because the transfers were taking place without their knowledge, according to messages reviewed by Reuters. The CEO of Binance.US at the time, Catherine Coley, wrote to a Binance finance executive in late 2020 asking for an explanation for the transfers, calling them &#34;unexpected&#34; and saying &#34;no one mentioned them.&#34;</p><p>&#34;Where are those funds coming from?&#34; she wrote in one message.</p><p>In a response to Coley, seen by Reuters, the Binance executive, Susan Li, did not explain the transfers. Li wrote that Merit Peak was a &#34;vendor that facilitated trading&#34; on Binance.US and also provided loans and capital injections to the American exchange.</p><p>Coley, who left Binance.US later in 2021, didn&#39;t respond to questions sent via her legal representatives. Li also didn&#39;t respond.</p><p>Reuters was unable to trace what became of the $400 million. An unspecified portion of the money was subsequently sent to the Silvergate account of a Seychelles-incorporated firm called Key Vision Development Limited, according to a person with direct knowledge of the transfers. A 2021 corporate filing by another Binance unit identified CEO Zhao as a director of Key Vision. A former Silvergate executive confirmed that Key Vision held an account at Silvergate at the time.</p><p>Key Vision&#39;s local registered agent did not respond to requests for comment.</p><p>The money transfers suggest that the global Binance exchange, which is not licensed to operate in the United States, controlled the finances of Binance.US, despite maintaining that the American entity is entirely independent and operates as its &#34;US partner.&#34; The Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission have sought information from Binance and Binance.US about their relationship as part of ongoing investigations into potential breaches of financial rules, including whether Binance is using the American exchange as cover for doing business in the U.S. The SEC and the Justice Department declined to comment for this article.</p><p>Reuters reported last year that Binance created Binance.US as a de facto subsidiary in 2019 in order to draw the scrutiny of U.S. regulators away from the global exchange. Binance.US&#39;s operator, California-based BAM Trading Services, is registered with the U.S. Treasury as a money services business, a category that includes foreign currency traders and money transmitters. BAM&#39;s beneficial owner is Zhao.</p><p>Binance.US&#39;s chief financial officer, Jasmine Lee, told the Wall Street Journal on Feb. 8 that &#34;the extent of our relationship&#34; with Binance.com is a shared name and a licensing agreement for technology. &#34;We do not transfer our funds back and forth,&#34; Lee said.</p><p>Susan Li, the Binance finance executive, had access to the Binance.US Silvergate account, however, along with several senior Binance.US employees, according to the messages and the person with direct knowledge of the transfers. In one message, a Binance.US finance manager asked Li to give another Binance.US employee authority to approve payments from the account. A 2021 Binance.US document that described the American exchange&#39;s technology architecture identified Silvergate as a payment channel controlled at the time by Binance.com.</p><p>The Binance.US account records reviewed by Reuters detail each transaction between January and the end of March 2021. Reuters has not reviewed account records for other periods.</p><p>The transfers to Merit Peak took place on the bank&#39;s proprietary Silvergate Exchange Network (SEN), which Binance.US joined in November 2020 to serve its corporate clients.

Li wrote that Merit Peak was a \"vendor that facilitated trading\" on Binance.US and also provided loans and capital injections to the American exchange.Coley, who left Binance.US later in 2021, didn't respond to questions sent via her legal representatives. Li also didn't respond.Reuters was unable to trace what became of the $400 million. An unspecified portion of the money was subsequently sent to the Silvergate account of a Seychelles-incorporated firm called Key Vision Development Limited, according to a person with direct knowledge of the transfers. A 2021 corporate filing by another Binance unit identified CEO Zhao as a director of Key Vision. A former Silvergate executive confirmed that Key Vision held an account at Silvergate at the time.Key Vision's local registered agent did not respond to requests for comment.The money transfers suggest that the global Binance exchange, which is not licensed to operate in the United States, controlled the finances of Binance.US, despite maintaining that the American entity is entirely independent and operates as its \"US partner.\" The Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission have sought information from Binance and Binance.US about their relationship as part of ongoing investigations into potential breaches of financial rules, including whether Binance is using the American exchange as cover for doing business in the U.S. The SEC and the Justice Department declined to comment for this article.Reuters reported last year that Binance created Binance.US as a de facto subsidiary in 2019 in order to draw the scrutiny of U.S. regulators away from the global exchange. Binance.US's operator, California-based BAM Trading Services, is registered with the U.S. Treasury as a money services business, a category that includes foreign currency traders and money transmitters. BAM's beneficial owner is Zhao.Binance.US's chief financial officer, Jasmine Lee, told the Wall Street Journal on Feb. 8 that \"the extent of our relationship\" with Binance.com is a shared name and a licensing agreement for technology. \"We do not transfer our funds back and forth,\" Lee said.Susan Li, the Binance finance executive, had access to the Binance.US Silvergate account, however, along with several senior Binance.US employees, according to the messages and the person with direct knowledge of the transfers. In one message, a Binance.US finance manager asked Li to give another Binance.US employee authority to approve payments from the account. A 2021 Binance.US document that described the American exchange's technology architecture identified Silvergate as a payment channel controlled at the time by Binance.com.The Binance.US account records reviewed by Reuters detail each transaction between January and the end of March 2021. Reuters has not reviewed account records for other periods.The transfers to Merit Peak took place on the bank's proprietary Silvergate Exchange Network (SEN), which Binance.US joined in November 2020 to serve its corporate clients. SEN allows these clients to transfer dollars between their accounts at the bank. Silvergate's investor prospectus says SEN transfers are \"push only,\" which means they must be authorized by the account's controller.The former Silvergate executive told Reuters the movement of funds from a company account without approval of that firm's management would be a breach of the bank's compliance rules. Silvergate's prospectus says \"multiple steps are required to create, authorize and approve a SEN transfer.\" The Silvergate spokesperson didn't address the transfers in their response to Reuters.Over the January-March 2021 quarter, the Binance.US account received $1.3 billion in SEN transfers from corporate clients trading on Binance.US, along with the $650 million in wire transfer deposits from Prime Trust.BLACK BOXThe role of trading firms at crypto exchanges such as industry leader Binance has been under scrutiny since rival FTX collapsed in November. Trading firms often play a \"market-making\" role, typically buying and selling assets to deepen an exchange's trading volume and thus facilitate dealing. The market maker profits from the difference, or \"spread,\" between the prices bid by buyers and asked by sellers.The SEC has accused FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried of secretly diverting billions of dollars in customer funds to his trading firm, Alameda Research, which functioned as a market maker on the exchange. Alameda received \"undisclosed special treatment\" on the FTX platform that concealed the flows, the SEC alleged in its December complaint against Bankman-Fried, who has pleaded not guilty.The SEC's chair, Gary Gensler, told Bloomberg TV on Feb. 10 that crypto exchanges, in general, were \"co-mingling customer funds with their businesses\" by also operating as broker-dealers and hedge funds that were trading against their own clients. He didn't single out Binance or other exchanges in his comments, but said firms should expect more enforcement actions by the agency.\"We don't let the New York Stock Exchange also run a hedge fund and trade on the exchange. Why would we do it here?\" Gensler said.Among the dealers on Binance.US was Merit Peak, according to company messages, the trading firm managed by CEO Zhao.Binance.US employees had little visibility into how Merit Peak was executing trades, the person with knowledge of the transfers said, because the software that matched customers' orders was managed by Binance as part of the technology licensing agreement between the two exchanges. The document that described Binance.US's technology architecture designated this software as \"BlackBox\" because, ex-staff said, Binance.US employees didn't know how it functioned.Former regulators, along with former executives at Binance and Silvergate, told Reuters that Merit Peak's role on Binance.US created potential conflicts of interest between the exchange and its customers because Binance.US disclosed no information about Merit Peak's activities or its owner. The SEC described Merit Peak as a Binance entity when it sought information about the trading firm as part of a subpoena issued to Binance.US in December 2020.\"When you have that lack of transparency, you don't know if Binance customers are being disadvantaged,\" said Howard Fischer, a former senior SEC trial counsel and now a partner at U.S. law firm Moses Singer.Merit Peak was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in January 2019. That December, Zhao signed a purchase agreement for Merit Peak to invest $1 million into Binance.US operator BAM Trading's holding company in return for a portion of the holding company's preferred shares. The agreement identified Zhao as Merit Peak's \"Manager.\"The BVI corporate registry does not name Merit Peak's directors or shareholders, and only identifies its local registered agent. The agent did not respond to requests for comment about Merit Peak's ownership. Like Binance.US, Binance too has not provided any public information about Merit Peak, nor mentioned it in submissions to regulators and corporate registries that were reviewed by Reuters.The 2021 document that described Binance.US's technology architecture noted that an unidentified \"Market Maker\" was under the control of Binance.com. In a Twitter Spaces event last November, Zhao said he was a shareholder in one unspecified market maker, but stressed that it did not earn profits and was \"just providing liquidity in the market.\"The SEC's subpoena, addressed to Coley, requested information on all of Binance.US's market makers, their owners, and their trading activity. The Wall Street Journal reported the subpoena last year. Reuters could not establish how Binance.US responded to the SEC.Binance.US and Binance didn't respond to Reuters' questions about the SEC's case, but Binance's chief strategy officer, Patrick Hillmann, told the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday the company was \"working with regulators to figure out what are the remediations\" to resolve investigations. The Justice Department is also investigating Binance for suspected money laundering and sanctions violations, Reuters has previously reported.Silvergate, the bank used by Binance and other crypto exchanges, is also drawing scrutiny. It is under investigation by the Justice Department's fraud section, which is examining Silvergate's hosting of accounts tied to Bankman-Fried's businesses. Silvergate didn't comment and the Justice Department declined to comment.\"STEADY CASH DRAIN\"Coley announced Binance.US had joined the Silvergate Exchange Network in November 2020, telling a crypto news outlet, \"We've launched SEN for our corporate clients.\"Merit Peak gave Binance.US $5 million to fund the \"minimum balance\" of the exchange's new SEN account, according to a message a senior Binance.US employee later sent to counterparts at Binance.com. The transfers to Merit Peak began soon after, the messages show.Coley, on the morning of Dec. 23, flagged a \"very large withdrawal\" by Merit Peak of $7.5 million from the Binance.US account. Binance.US staff referred to the transfers to Merit Peak as \"withdrawals,\" messages show, because Binance.com employees were initiating them.\"This transaction is unexpected,\" Coley wrote. As a result, she told Susan Li, who was named as team leader of Binance's finance department in a company employee list that year, that Binance.US's SEN account had hit its daily withdrawal limit of $10 million and she would lift the threshold to $20 million.Coley asked Li to advise Binance.US staff in the future when the SEN account was close to hitting its limit. \"Given we do not have portal access, can we have eyes and ears helping us,\" she messaged. She didn't identify the portal, but Silvergate says SEN accounts can be accessed via an \"online banking portal.\"Coley followed up with Li again later that day. \"Can you explain more – maybe over the phone – about the flows that are happening via SEN? I want to understand them better as no one mentioned them until today when they got caught in our limit,\" Coley wrote.\"Who is directing this?\" Coley asked, noting that other senior Binance.US employees were not aware of the transfers either.Li replied in a message to Coley that Merit Peak's role was as an \"OTC vendor.\" She didn't elaborate or directly address Coley's questions.In OTC or over-the-counter trades, two parties agree on a price outside an exchange. Reuters could not establish what trades Merit Peak was involved in. But in a message to a colleague in early 2021, seen by Reuters, a senior Binance.US employee said Binance.com was sending crypto to Binance.US to sell to American traders, and then \"withdrawing\" the income via Merit Peak. This led to a \"steady cash drain out of SEN,\" despite a booming crypto market, the employee wrote.From January to March 2021, the account records show that Merit Peak received 89 transfers from the Binance.US SEN account totalling $404 million. Over that period, Merit Peak made four payments into the Binance.US account, for a total of around $160,000.The transfers to Merit Peak were almost all for precise million-dollar figures, made at one- or two-day intervals. These transfers often immediately followed a deposit into the Binance.US account by Prime Trust, the crypto custodian firm for Binance.US client funds.Merit Peak then transferred funds from its Silvergate account to the account belonging to Key Vision, the Seychelles firm, said the person with direct knowledge of the transfers.Reuters was unable to determine why the money was moved around in this way.That year, Binance.com was also directing international customers on its platform to deposit dollars into Key Vision's Silvergate account, according to screenshots of the instructions posted on a crypto blog. The Seychelles' business registry says Key Vision, which was incorporated the same day as Merit Peak, remains active and is in \"Good Standing.\"Binance.US in April 2021 unexpectedly announced it would replace Coley as CEO. She has not made any public statements since leaving.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":379,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954845202,"gmtCreate":1676272926906,"gmtModify":1676272932398,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What matters most is the terminal interest rate.

The market has been on a meteoric rise since the start of 2023, fueled by dreams of falling inflation and the possibility of interest rate cuts from the Federal Reserve. However, if the report reveals the expected change in trend from the previous couple of months of disinflation, it could shatter market hopes and cause a significant market reversal. The report could mark a turning point in the equity market&#39;s expectations for inflation and interest rates, with far-reaching implications.</p><p>Analysts predict that the headline CPI will increase by 0.5% month-over-month and by 6.2% year-over-year. Meanwhile, core CPI is expected to rise by 0.4% month-over-month and 5.7% year-over-year.</p><p>The year-over-year headline CPI is forecast to decline from 6.5% year-over-year in December, while core CPI drops from 5.7%. However, the headline CPI is anticipated to jump month over month from the recently revised increase of 0.1% in December, while core CPI is expected to be flat at 0.4%.</p><p>The recent revision of the CPI has also reweighted the various components, leading to changes in their relative importance. For example, energy, which had provided a meaningful deflation impulse in the second half of 2022, will see its weight drop to 6.92% from 7.86%. Meanwhile, the importance of shelter has risen significantly to 34.41% from 32.92%, while used cars and trucks have dropped to 2.66% from 3.62%.</p><p>These changes in weighting could result in the CPI running hotter to start the year. For example, the inflation impulse from the owner&#39;s equivalent rent is likely to continue to drive prices higher for some time, while the impact of declining used car prices will be less pronounced.</p><p>The revised data suggests that inflation was weaker in last year&#39;s first half compared to the year&#39;s second half. The disinflationary impulse that the equity market was focused on was not as strong as initially thought and was nearly non-existent.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/679ceb02e1b09dc635d75d7cbaf8c4d5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"330\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><h3>Higher Prices and Changing Importance</h3><p>Additionally, January saw significant gains in some factors declining in the year&#39;s second half, such as used autos and gasoline. The Manheim used auto index rose by 2.5% in January, which could indicate that the actual CPI used vehicle index will also rise in the coming months. The Manheim used auto value typically leads the actual CPI used vehicle index by 1 to 2 months. However, the positive impact of these gains is likely to be limited due to their lower weighting in the revised CPI.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00d44c5c7c6b33faf3150f9df4c520d8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>Meanwhile, the rise in gasoline prices should also provide a positive boost to CPI in January, despite the weighing of gasoline falling to 3.17% from 3.95%.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/862caa3e110a8d7ff03e2104a772c384\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>Additionally, health insurance, which has been a disinflationary force on CPI since the October reset, had its weight lowered, which means that the disinflationary force is likely to be smaller in the January report. For example, in the October report, health insurance had a weight of 0.92% and fell by 4%, negatively impacting prices by 0.037%. The same impact with the new weighting of 0.77% would mean it would have only declined by 0.031%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a518d54401430e5ce12cbb54757ae22c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><h3>Pricing in Higher Inflation</h3><p>The January CPI report will be tricky to interpret due to weight changes and recent gains in some inflationary factors. If the trend of higher-than-expected CPI continues, it could pose a considerable risk. Trends in the inflation swap market have generally been on the rise, with the January year-over-year increase in swaps rising from a low of 5.88% on January 10 to 6.2% on February 9, which is in line with analyst consensus estimates for the January report.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92375ac613aa5dd3e2860981fbb396f0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>In addition, pricing in the 1-month zero coupon inflation swap market on Friday continued to show rising inflation expectations for January. Based on my current calculations, the pricing suggests that the market forecast the CPI to rise by 6.22% in January year-over-year, a continuation of the trend towards higher inflation reading, and may even indicate the market is thinking actual headline inflation could come in above consensus estimates.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d4a13e433d25cfc5fd44209659ebcadd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"378\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>This trend is not limited to just January; it is also evident every month until June. Swaps for March have risen by almost 60 basis points over the past month, while the expected reading for June has shifted from a 2% increase to 2.55%. These shifts suggest that the market expects higher inflation in the coming months.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d963d38164c8f9534b224e03e41bb6c0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"439\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>It is not only the inflation swaps pricing in higher inflation rates; the bond market also reflects this trend. The 1-year breakeven inflation rate, which measures the spread between nominal and real yields, has risen to 2.62%, well above the lows of 1.63% seen on January 9. This increase in the breakeven rate suggests that the bond market is also anticipating higher inflation shortly.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffa44ffdae7c5c614b2ad2da18b7a1d1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>Additionally, the University of Michigan&#39;s 1-year inflation expectation has risen to 4.2%, the first time it has increased in three months. Although it is still below its highs, it is consistent with the inflation swaps and the bond market trends. This suggests that inflation expectations are on the rise across multiple market indicators.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f8ac01f597ab7bc8a3f45658e67f6bf6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><h3>Betting on Higher Interest Rates</h3><p>Additionally, there has recently been some betting in the SOFR futures options market that suggests traders see the Fed Funds rate hitting 6% by the September FOMC meeting. Open interest for the SOFRA September 94 strike price has jumped 178,000 contracts from 44,000 on February 6. This implies that the Fed Funds rate is 6% or higher by the expiration date.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d39f23c1427c5a74ba1523cb61a3a29a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><h3>Complacency In Stocks</h3><p>Despite all the warnings from various parts of the markets, the equity market continues to live in fantasy land. It does not appear to be greatly concerned about the upcoming CPI report. Implied volatility for the Tuesday report is just 23.6%, which is well below the readings of 35.8% two days before the January CPI report, 27.95% in December, and 40.7% in November. This suggests that the equity market may not be fully pricing in the potential impact of higher inflation on the economy and equity prices.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d1ffd866f87557f604868d0c259cf1e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"204\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>It seems that despite the expected increase in inflation from analysts and the warnings from the inflation swaps, options, and bond market about a potential trend of higher-than-previously-expected inflation in the future, the equity market is still oblivious.</p><p>Therefore, it is possible that there is indeed a hotter-than-expected CPI report this week, which so many parts of the market appear to be anticipating. If CPI does come in hotter than expected, the equity market may find itself on the wrong side of the trend again, just as it has several times over the past 12 months.</p><p>Editor&#39;s Note: This article covers one or more microcap stocks.

The same impact with the new weighting of 0.77% would mean it would have only declined by 0.031%.BloombergPricing in Higher InflationThe January CPI report will be tricky to interpret due to weight changes and recent gains in some inflationary factors. If the trend of higher-than-expected CPI continues, it could pose a considerable risk. Trends in the inflation swap market have generally been on the rise, with the January year-over-year increase in swaps rising from a low of 5.88% on January 10 to 6.2% on February 9, which is in line with analyst consensus estimates for the January report.BloombergIn addition, pricing in the 1-month zero coupon inflation swap market on Friday continued to show rising inflation expectations for January. Based on my current calculations, the pricing suggests that the market forecast the CPI to rise by 6.22% in January year-over-year, a continuation of the trend towards higher inflation reading, and may even indicate the market is thinking actual headline inflation could come in above consensus estimates.BloombergThis trend is not limited to just January; it is also evident every month until June. Swaps for March have risen by almost 60 basis points over the past month, while the expected reading for June has shifted from a 2% increase to 2.55%. These shifts suggest that the market expects higher inflation in the coming months.BloombergIt is not only the inflation swaps pricing in higher inflation rates; the bond market also reflects this trend. The 1-year breakeven inflation rate, which measures the spread between nominal and real yields, has risen to 2.62%, well above the lows of 1.63% seen on January 9. This increase in the breakeven rate suggests that the bond market is also anticipating higher inflation shortly.BloombergAdditionally, the University of Michigan's 1-year inflation expectation has risen to 4.2%, the first time it has increased in three months. Although it is still below its highs, it is consistent with the inflation swaps and the bond market trends. This suggests that inflation expectations are on the rise across multiple market indicators.BloombergBetting on Higher Interest RatesAdditionally, there has recently been some betting in the SOFR futures options market that suggests traders see the Fed Funds rate hitting 6% by the September FOMC meeting. Open interest for the SOFRA September 94 strike price has jumped 178,000 contracts from 44,000 on February 6. This implies that the Fed Funds rate is 6% or higher by the expiration date.BloombergComplacency In StocksDespite all the warnings from various parts of the markets, the equity market continues to live in fantasy land. It does not appear to be greatly concerned about the upcoming CPI report. Implied volatility for the Tuesday report is just 23.6%, which is well below the readings of 35.8% two days before the January CPI report, 27.95% in December, and 40.7% in November. This suggests that the equity market may not be fully pricing in the potential impact of higher inflation on the economy and equity prices.BloombergIt seems that despite the expected increase in inflation from analysts and the warnings from the inflation swaps, options, and bond market about a potential trend of higher-than-previously-expected inflation in the future, the equity market is still oblivious.Therefore, it is possible that there is indeed a hotter-than-expected CPI report this week, which so many parts of the market appear to be anticipating. If CPI does come in hotter than expected, the equity market may find itself on the wrong side of the trend again, just as it has several times over the past 12 months.Editor's Note: This article covers one or more microcap stocks.

The broad market index jumped 5.7% higher over the first two sessions in October, even though there was no major catalyst for the movement.</p><p>If the stock market feels like it&#39;s going on and off like a light switch, there&#39;s a good reason for that. The Federal Reserve is dominating market sentiment, and predictions about the Fed&#39;s upcoming fed funds rate decisions can turn on just a hint that the economy is weakening.</p><p>For example, on Monday, the Institute for Supply for Management&#39;s Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index came in at 50.9, indicating a slight expansion, but at its lowest level since May 2020. Worse, leading indicators like new orders were actually down from the prior month, a sign that the economy could be slipping into a recession. Also on Monday, a U.N. agency warned the Fed and other central banks that continuing interest rate hikes could push the world into a prolonged recession.</p><p>On Tuesday, stocks rallied again after job openings fell by 10% from July to August to 10.1 million, its lowest level in over a year. That data point is likely to put an even brighter spotlight on Friday&#39;s jobs report.</p><p>In normal times, the monthly jobs report is closely watched as an indicator of the health of the economy. However, with market sentiment hinging on Wall Street&#39;s latest guess of the Fed&#39;s next move, this week&#39;s jobs report takes on even more importance.</p><h2>Up is down</h2><p>In a stable economy, investors like to see steady growth from the job market and low unemployment. However, the Fed&#39;s aggressive interest rate hikes to combat inflation have disrupted the normal market mentality. In commentary after the central bank&#39;s latest hike on Sept. 21, Chairman Jerome Powell said that the most important goal of Fed policy was to bring down inflation, even if that meant driving unemployment higher or causing a recession.</p><p>That means the sooner that the economy buckles under the weight of higher interest rates, which have increased by 3 percentage points since the beginning of the year, the sooner the Fed is likely to pump the brakes on its rate hikes.</p><p>That&#39;s good news for the stock market for several reasons. First, rising interest rates effectively makes money more expensive. It makes it more costly for businesses to borrow money, slowing down growth, and it raises payments on variable-rate debt. In some industries, like homebuilding, climbing interest rates have already had an impact on consumer behavior.</p><p>Second, rising rates tend to encourage investors to pull money out of the stock market and put it into the bond market to benefit from higher yields.</p><p>Finally, higher interest rates lift the discount rate in financial analysis like the discounted cash flow model, making future earnings worth less. That explains why growth stocks, especially unprofitable ones, have fallen sharply this year.</p><h2>What to look for in the jobs report</h2><p>According to Factset, economists are expecting an increase of 250,000 jobs in September. While that still represents job market growth relative to population expansion, it would be the slowest month of job growth since December 2020 as the labor market has steadily clawed back the millions of jobs lost during the pandemic. Total employment only topped pre-pandemic levels last month, according to the St. Louis Fed.</p><p>In addition to the number of jobs added, investors will be also be focused on the unemployment rate, which is the number of people looking for work divided by the size of the labor force.

The broad market index jumped 5.7% higher over the first two sessions in October, even though there was no major catalyst for the movement.If the stock market feels like it's going on and off like a light switch, there's a good reason for that. The Federal Reserve is dominating market sentiment, and predictions about the Fed's upcoming fed funds rate decisions can turn on just a hint that the economy is weakening.For example, on Monday, the Institute for Supply for Management's Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index came in at 50.9, indicating a slight expansion, but at its lowest level since May 2020. Worse, leading indicators like new orders were actually down from the prior month, a sign that the economy could be slipping into a recession. Also on Monday, a U.N. agency warned the Fed and other central banks that continuing interest rate hikes could push the world into a prolonged recession.On Tuesday, stocks rallied again after job openings fell by 10% from July to August to 10.1 million, its lowest level in over a year. That data point is likely to put an even brighter spotlight on Friday's jobs report.In normal times, the monthly jobs report is closely watched as an indicator of the health of the economy. However, with market sentiment hinging on Wall Street's latest guess of the Fed's next move, this week's jobs report takes on even more importance.Up is downIn a stable economy, investors like to see steady growth from the job market and low unemployment. However, the Fed's aggressive interest rate hikes to combat inflation have disrupted the normal market mentality. In commentary after the central bank's latest hike on Sept. 21, Chairman Jerome Powell said that the most important goal of Fed policy was to bring down inflation, even if that meant driving unemployment higher or causing a recession.That means the sooner that the economy buckles under the weight of higher interest rates, which have increased by 3 percentage points since the beginning of the year, the sooner the Fed is likely to pump the brakes on its rate hikes.That's good news for the stock market for several reasons. First, rising interest rates effectively makes money more expensive. It makes it more costly for businesses to borrow money, slowing down growth, and it raises payments on variable-rate debt. In some industries, like homebuilding, climbing interest rates have already had an impact on consumer behavior.Second, rising rates tend to encourage investors to pull money out of the stock market and put it into the bond market to benefit from higher yields.Finally, higher interest rates lift the discount rate in financial analysis like the discounted cash flow model, making future earnings worth less. That explains why growth stocks, especially unprofitable ones, have fallen sharply this year.What to look for in the jobs reportAccording to Factset, economists are expecting an increase of 250,000 jobs in September. While that still represents job market growth relative to population expansion, it would be the slowest month of job growth since December 2020 as the labor market has steadily clawed back the millions of jobs lost during the pandemic. Total employment only topped pre-pandemic levels last month, according to the St. Louis Fed.In addition to the number of jobs added, investors will be also be focused on the unemployment rate, which is the number of people looking for work divided by the size of the labor force. The unemployment rate can rise either because people lose their jobs or because more people decide to look for work. In August, the unemployment rate rose from 3.5% to 3.7% as the labor force expanded, a sign that more Americans were looking for work.The sharp drop in job openings in August is a good sign that the labor market weakened in September. Still, we won't know the official tally until Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET.If job growth comes in below 250,000, don't be surprised if stocks surge once again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":690,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9914059092,"gmtCreate":1665141952216,"gmtModify":1676537563375,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Motley fools again.&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;Just wondering how deep your pockets have to be to buy the dips.","listText":"Motley fools again.&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;Just wondering how deep your pockets have to be to buy the dips.","text":"Motley fools again.

Many of today&#39;s decliners are very solid companies that are extremely likely to not only rebound, but also to lift your portfolio over the long term. So you&#39;ll want to consider buying more of these players -- and at bargain prices -- in October. Let&#39;s take a look at three with major brand strength.</p><h2>1. Disney</h2><p><b>Walt Disney</b> has fallen about 37% this year. That leaves it trading at about 18 times forward earnings estimates. It traded for more than 40 at the start of the year. This looks inexpensive if you just look at these numbers. But if you think about the strength of the Disney brand, it looks even cheaper.</p><p>Disney operates the world&#39;s most-visited theme parks. And these parks are huge contributors to revenue. The parks, experiences, and products unit brought in $7.3 billion in the fiscal third quarter, ended July 2. That&#39;s up 70% year over year. And this represents about a third of Disney&#39;s total $21.5 billion in revenue for the quarter.</p><p>Disney said during the earnings call that attendance at domestic parks on many days has surpassed pre-pandemic levels.

Procter &amp; Gamble</h2><p><b>Procter &amp; Gamble</b> is another company with brand strength. P&amp;G is the maker of many brands you&#39;re probably very familiar with, such as Bounty paper towels and Tide laundry detergent.</p><p>Brand strength has led to a track record of revenue and profit gains over time. The company also has maintained a steady level of return on invested capital.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/29b321e1d900b8deb13f6ddc706492c6\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"494\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>PG Revenue (Annual) data by YCharts</span></p><p>P&amp;G has the advantage of selling items people can&#39;t avoid buying -- even if times are tough.

For instance, you might only need one Bounty paper towel to pick up a spill versus several of a lower-priced brand.</p><p>P&amp;G faces the challenge of rising inflation. Higher inflation lifts the costs of raw materials and transporting goods. The impact of that could be reflected in earnings in the coming weeks or months. But this is a short-term problem. It doesn&#39;t change the overall demand for P&amp;G&#39;s products or earnings potential farther down the road.</p><p>It&#39;s also important to note that P&amp;G is a Dividend King. That means it&#39;s lifted its dividend for at least the past 50 years. So, you can count on this consumer goods giant for earnings growth -- and passive income -- over the long term.</p><h2>3. Nike</h2><p><b>Nike</b> has slipped when it comes to stock performance and earnings in recent times. The shares are down 46% so far this year. And Nike disappointed investors last week when it reported higher inventory levels and a lower gross margin.</p><p>But I see this as an opportunity to buy shares of a market leader with a brand that keeps fans coming back. Nike continues to be a favorite brand in the major markets of North America and China. And demand for its products keeps getting stronger.</p><p>For example, Nike&#39;s 2022 fiscal year (ended May 31) was the strongest ever for the Jordan brand. The brand has reached $5 billion in revenue -- and that&#39;s about 20 years after the retirement of basketball legend Michael Jordan. It&#39;s clear this brand has plenty of growth potential ahead.</p><p>Nike&#39;s progress in the booming area of e-commerce is also a big plus. The company&#39;s digital business has almost tripled revenue since 2019. That revenue level is now about $10 billion and makes up 24% of total Nike brand revenue. And excluding the impact of currency exchanges, Nike&#39;s overall sales rose 10% in the most recent quarter.</p><p>Nike&#39;s strategy to focus on digital and selling directly to customers clearly is working. These are elements that will contribute to earnings growth over time. And that&#39;s why buying more of the shares today -- while they&#39;re down -- is a great idea.</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 Dow Stocks to Buy More of in October</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 Dow Stocks to Buy More of in October\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-07 16:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/06/3-dow-stocks-to-buy-more-of-in-october/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>As you know, the stock market is a difficult place these days.

Legendary investor George Soros has believed for manyyears that excess on the upside leads to excess on the downside. QQQ could fall much, much further as the excess drains out of its valuation. History has shown that when the CAPE ratio reaches 60, real returns for the following 15 years settle around negative 4% per annum:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7bc80a1f57b8dfee7b03b2b120bca92d\" tg-width=\"838\" tg-height=\"532\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>CAPE Ratio Vs. Real Returns (Lyn Alden)</p><h3>All Aboard The Hype Train</h3><p>If there&#39;s one thing that&#39;s worked over the past decade, it was holding U.S. tech stocks. Thus, the outperformance of QQQ, which has 50% of its holdings in information technology and another 30% or so in communication and consumer tech.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9edb873b2feb324ecda807b382f4ee2e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"304\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>QQQ&#39;s Sector Allocations (Invesco)</p><p>Invesco advertises this ETF by pointing out its track record of outperformance and its trading volume:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ff0af3bad598a067897135ce8fbc3795\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"175\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>QQQ ETF (Invesco)</p><p>The problem is, tech stocks outperformed massively before the dot com bubble burst. Following the implosion of 2000, it took more than 15 years for the Nasdaq 100 to recover its losses:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41f19d55e2420774df33a2ea218d39de\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"802\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>QQQ data by YCharts</p><p>In fact, the reason QQQ has outperformed over the past 15 years is because tech underperformed from 2000 to 2010, in my opinion. This meant there were huge bargains in the sector as everyone was depressed about tech stocks. So you can see, you don&#39;t want to buy what&#39;s done well recently, in fact, you want to do just the opposite. We&#39;ve studied several investors who outperformed the market over multiple decades, from Warren Buffett, to Carl Icahn, to Sir John Templeton, to Howard Marks. They all had one thing in common, they bought when there was blood in the streets. QQQ is concentrated in the hottest sectors of the past 5 years, and that&#39;s not where you want to hunt for outsized returns:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/66e2ddbe72a70d8cddbdf93fc4d34160\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"261\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Sector Performance (Fidelity)</p><p>The average S&amp;P 500 company survives only20 years, and for tech stocks, that lifespan could be even shorter as these businesses face brutal competition, and the industry is constantly changing. If we look at businesses that survived for more than200 years, we get banks like JPMorgan Chase (JPM), chemical companies like DuPont (DD), and consumer staples companies like Colgate-Palmolive (CL). These are simple and predictable businesses in industries that enjoy a very slow pace of change.</p><p>It&#39;s About To Get Ugly</p><p><b>QQQ&#39;s Top 10 Holdings</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/597aa9aae54335b405a9cef0e95951a2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"290\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>QQQ&#39;s Top 10 Holdings (Invesco)</p><p>We&#39;ve analyzed many of QQQ&#39;s top holdings individually, including <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla </a>, Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta </a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/COST\">Costco </a>. Marked in red above are our expected annual returns for each business, with a 10-year time horizon. Overall, this equates to a 4% expected annual return for QQQ&#39;s top holdings. In other words, you could get an inflation adjusted return of 0% per annum holding these stocks.</p><p>History has shown the market tends to swing from overly optimistic to overly pessimistic. Legendary investor George Soros coined this the boom-bust model. He believed that excessive margin, speculation, and exuberance on the upside creates excessive insolvency, fear, and selling on the downside. In other words, the larger the boom, the larger the bust. So, what do you think comes next for QQQ? If we had to wager, we&#39;d bet on an excessive bust.</p><h3>Risks To The Thesis</h3><p>Crazy things can go on longer than you expect. In 1989, the PE of the Japanese index reached 60x earnings. The Nasdaq 100 is still nowhere near this level. Enthusiasm can always return in the short-run.</p><p>Also, while Sir John Templeton has cautioned against saying &#34;this time is different,&#34; he conceded that 20% of the time it really is different. Technology stocks have defied gravity up to this point. And, holding a diversified group of technology stocks with a 30-year time horizon isn&#39;t a terrible idea. We&#39;ve seen many of these businesses develop enduring moats and compound at a rapid pace for an extended period of time. An asset-light model and rapidly growing industry is generally a good place to be. Technology should be a part of everyone&#39;s portfolio, at the right valuation.</p><p>Our Valuation</p><p>The Nasdaq 100 has aPE ratio of 27.2, but its earnings could still be at a cyclical peak, as evidenced by its much higher CAPE ratio. This means QQQ likely has earnings per share around $11.78. Looking at the aggregate of several QQQ businesses we&#39;ve analyzed, combined with the cheaper, but slower growing businesses that round out the QQQ ETF, we believe EPS will grow at 8% per annum in the decade ahead. This growth should outpace the S&amp;P 500&#39;s EPS, but the valuation is more stretched than the S&amp;P.</p><p>Our 2032 price target for QQQ is $445 per share, implying returns of 4% per annum with dividends reinvested.</p><ul><li>Growing QQQ&#39;s EPS at 8% per annum, we get $25.43 per share in 2032. We&#39;ve assigned a terminal multiple of 17.5x as we believe growth will slow slightly in the decade that follows. Keep in mind, this is a base-case scenario.</li></ul><h3>The Bottom Line</h3><p>The risk and reward is unfavorable for QQQ, and some of the exuberance we saw on the upside could reverse on the downside. It&#39;s possible you get inflation-adjusted returns of 0% per annum even after holding for 10 years. With such long-duration cash flows, QQQ is very susceptible to an increase in interest rates.</p><p><b>What To Do About It</b></p><p>We&#39;re projecting higher returns in communication companies like Meta and Google than other names in this ETF. Interestingly, communication services has been the worst performing sector of the past 5 years. There&#39;s despondency here, and with despondency comes the potential for outsized returns. For ETF investors, we recommend Vanguard Communication Services ETF (VOX).

Legendary investor George Soros has believed for manyyears that excess on the upside leads to excess on the downside. QQQ could fall much, much further as the excess drains out of its valuation. History has shown that when the CAPE ratio reaches 60, real returns for the following 15 years settle around negative 4% per annum:CAPE Ratio Vs. Real Returns (Lyn Alden)All Aboard The Hype TrainIf there's one thing that's worked over the past decade, it was holding U.S. tech stocks. Thus, the outperformance of QQQ, which has 50% of its holdings in information technology and another 30% or so in communication and consumer tech.QQQ's Sector Allocations (Invesco)Invesco advertises this ETF by pointing out its track record of outperformance and its trading volume:QQQ ETF (Invesco)The problem is, tech stocks outperformed massively before the dot com bubble burst. Following the implosion of 2000, it took more than 15 years for the Nasdaq 100 to recover its losses:QQQ data by YChartsIn fact, the reason QQQ has outperformed over the past 15 years is because tech underperformed from 2000 to 2010, in my opinion. This meant there were huge bargains in the sector as everyone was depressed about tech stocks. So you can see, you don't want to buy what's done well recently, in fact, you want to do just the opposite. We've studied several investors who outperformed the market over multiple decades, from Warren Buffett, to Carl Icahn, to Sir John Templeton, to Howard Marks. They all had one thing in common, they bought when there was blood in the streets. QQQ is concentrated in the hottest sectors of the past 5 years, and that's not where you want to hunt for outsized returns:Sector Performance (Fidelity)The average S&P 500 company survives only20 years, and for tech stocks, that lifespan could be even shorter as these businesses face brutal competition, and the industry is constantly changing. If we look at businesses that survived for more than200 years, we get banks like JPMorgan Chase (JPM), chemical companies like DuPont (DD), and consumer staples companies like Colgate-Palmolive (CL). These are simple and predictable businesses in industries that enjoy a very slow pace of change.It's About To Get UglyQQQ's Top 10 HoldingsQQQ's Top 10 Holdings (Invesco)We've analyzed many of QQQ's top holdings individually, including Apple , Microsoft , Amazon , Tesla , Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), Meta , and Costco . Marked in red above are our expected annual returns for each business, with a 10-year time horizon. Overall, this equates to a 4% expected annual return for QQQ's top holdings. In other words, you could get an inflation adjusted return of 0% per annum holding these stocks.History has shown the market tends to swing from overly optimistic to overly pessimistic. Legendary investor George Soros coined this the boom-bust model. He believed that excessive margin, speculation, and exuberance on the upside creates excessive insolvency, fear, and selling on the downside. In other words, the larger the boom, the larger the bust. So, what do you think comes next for QQQ? If we had to wager, we'd bet on an excessive bust.Risks To The ThesisCrazy things can go on longer than you expect. In 1989, the PE of the Japanese index reached 60x earnings. The Nasdaq 100 is still nowhere near this level. Enthusiasm can always return in the short-run.Also, while Sir John Templeton has cautioned against saying \"this time is different,\" he conceded that 20% of the time it really is different. Technology stocks have defied gravity up to this point. And, holding a diversified group of technology stocks with a 30-year time horizon isn't a terrible idea. We've seen many of these businesses develop enduring moats and compound at a rapid pace for an extended period of time. An asset-light model and rapidly growing industry is generally a good place to be. Technology should be a part of everyone's portfolio, at the right valuation.Our ValuationThe Nasdaq 100 has aPE ratio of 27.2, but its earnings could still be at a cyclical peak, as evidenced by its much higher CAPE ratio. This means QQQ likely has earnings per share around $11.78. Looking at the aggregate of several QQQ businesses we've analyzed, combined with the cheaper, but slower growing businesses that round out the QQQ ETF, we believe EPS will grow at 8% per annum in the decade ahead. This growth should outpace the S&P 500's EPS, but the valuation is more stretched than the S&P.Our 2032 price target for QQQ is $445 per share, implying returns of 4% per annum with dividends reinvested.Growing QQQ's EPS at 8% per annum, we get $25.43 per share in 2032. We've assigned a terminal multiple of 17.5x as we believe growth will slow slightly in the decade that follows. Keep in mind, this is a base-case scenario.The Bottom LineThe risk and reward is unfavorable for QQQ, and some of the exuberance we saw on the upside could reverse on the downside. It's possible you get inflation-adjusted returns of 0% per annum even after holding for 10 years. With such long-duration cash flows, QQQ is very susceptible to an increase in interest rates.What To Do About ItWe're projecting higher returns in communication companies like Meta and Google than other names in this ETF. Interestingly, communication services has been the worst performing sector of the past 5 years. There's despondency here, and with despondency comes the potential for outsized returns.

We believe a rally in technology was hopeful and that we’re kind of near the end of the interest rate tightening cycle,” Andy Tepper, managing director at BNY Mellon Wealth Management said via phone. “Quite frankly, we think that may be a little bit premature, that there still is some worrisome stickier inflation that the Federal Reserve needs to deal with.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":463,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9907257081,"gmtCreate":1660203273346,"gmtModify":1703479072815,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Selling covered calls maybe better at resistance level.","listText":"Selling covered calls maybe better at resistance level.","text":"Selling covered calls maybe better at resistance level.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9907257081","repostId":"1105504175","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105504175","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660197626,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1105504175?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-11 14:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Option Ideas To Consider This Thursday: Featuring NVDA, MRVL, ABT","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105504175","media":"Barchart","summary":"Abbott Laboratories Bull Put SpreadA bull put spread is a defined risk option strategy that profits ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Abbott Laboratories Bull Put Spread</b></p><p>A bull put spread is a defined risk option strategy that profits if the stock closes above the short strike at expiry.</p><p>To execute a bull put spread an investor would sell an out-of-the-money put and then but a further out-of-the-money put.</p><p>Running the Barchart Bull Put Spread Screener shows these results for ABT:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dad65d0a4cf257aeec6484b083e17eda\" tg-width=\"1150\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Let’s use the first line item as an example.

Or is the post-earnings pop a mirage that will soon disappear? It&#39;s likely too early to answer definitively either way. But there are at least three reasons investors should remain cautious about the stock right now.</p><h2>1. Intent does not equal execution</h2><p>Pinterest recently brought on a new CEO, Bill Ready, who came from previous executive roles within the financial technology space, including executive positions at <b>Alphabet</b> and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b> <b>Holdings</b>, as well as CEO of PayPal&#39;s Venmo.</p><p>Former CEO Ben Silbermann spoke about the leadership transition in the company&#39;s second-quarter earnings conference call, citing a desire to make Pinterest a more competitive e-commerce company where users can follow through on their inspirations on the platform with actions and purchases. Bill Ready&#39;s expertise in those areas put him in the position of CEO.</p><p>Bill Ready also spoke on the second-quarter call, discussing how Pinterest&#39;s platform enables users to save content, and how he believes that it&#39;s fertile ground for advertiser and shopper spending. He aims to evaluate and finalize a plan of action over the coming months.</p><p>Wall Street&#39;s positive reaction is a sign that the potential changes are welcome, but investors should remember that changes don&#39;t guarantee success. Pinterest will need time to roll out any proposed strategy and see measurable results. That&#39;s not to say they won&#39;t work, but investors are betting on potential and not results at this moment.</p><h2>2. Pinterest&#39;s user base is shrinking</h2><p>The promise of the future also doesn&#39;t change the fact that engagement on Pinterest is suffering. Monthly active users fell 5% year over year in the second quarter to 433 million, the same number as in the first quarter.</p><p>More troubling is that users declined 8% year over year in the U.S. and Canada, Pinterest&#39;s most important demographic. The average user in the U.S. and Canada generated $5.82 in revenue in the quarter, miles ahead of Europe, its next closest segment, which had just $0.86 per user.</p><p>Continued user losses in the U.S. and Canada could dramatically affect the company&#39;s overall revenue per user and total revenue as a result. It&#39;s good to see that the number of users was stable from the first quarter to the second, but getting user growth going again in the U.S. and Canada is crucial.</p><h2>3. Pinterest&#39;s costs are rising</h2><p>Pinterest&#39;s revenue grew 9% year over year in the second quarter to $666 million, but its costs are rising faster across the board. The company&#39;s adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) declined 46% from the year-ago quarter.</p><p>Pinterest&#39;s four major expense categories all increased year over year, including:</p><ul><li>Cost of Revenue: up 29%</li><li>Research &amp; Development: up 37%</li><li>Sales &amp; Marketing: up 27%</li><li>General &amp; Administrative: up 35%</li></ul><p>Investing in the business can be good if it increases revenue. Watching the relationship between revenue growth and expenses will be essential to ensure that happens. Growth could become an uphill battle if Pinterest doesn&#39;t reinvigorate its user growth.</p><h2>The bottom line</h2><p>A work in progress might best describe Pinterest these days. The stock has fallen more than 70% from its high and trades at a price-to-sales ratio of almost 6, on par with the COVID-19 crash in 2020.</p><p>The lower valuation probably reflects a lot of the risks I mentioned above. But the company likely needs several quarters of execution, member growth, and financials trending in the right direction again for the recent rally to become a full-fledged comeback. It&#39;s still way too early to tell, which is why investors should remain cautious for the time being.</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>This Cheap Tech Stock Soared 20%: Time to Buy?</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\">\nThis Cheap Tech Stock Soared 20%: Time to Buy?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-11 14:13 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/10/cheap-tech-stock-soared-20-time-buy-pinterest/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Social media company Pinterest saw its stock price soar 20% immediately after it released its earnings report for the second quarter of 2022, enough to recover some prior losses and put the stock up ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/10/cheap-tech-stock-soared-20-time-buy-pinterest/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PINS":"Pinterest, Inc."},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/10/cheap-tech-stock-soared-20-time-buy-pinterest/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2258212688","content_text":"Social media company Pinterest saw its stock price soar 20% immediately after it released its earnings report for the second quarter of 2022, enough to recover some prior losses and put the stock up 13% in total over the past month.

The average user in the U.S. and Canada generated $5.82 in revenue in the quarter, miles ahead of Europe, its next closest segment, which had just $0.86 per user.Continued user losses in the U.S. and Canada could dramatically affect the company's overall revenue per user and total revenue as a result. It's good to see that the number of users was stable from the first quarter to the second, but getting user growth going again in the U.S. and Canada is crucial.3. Pinterest's costs are risingPinterest's revenue grew 9% year over year in the second quarter to $666 million, but its costs are rising faster across the board. The company's adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) declined 46% from the year-ago quarter.Pinterest's four major expense categories all increased year over year, including:Cost of Revenue: up 29%Research & Development: up 37%Sales & Marketing: up 27%General & Administrative: up 35%Investing in the business can be good if it increases revenue. Watching the relationship between revenue growth and expenses will be essential to ensure that happens. Growth could become an uphill battle if Pinterest doesn't reinvigorate its user growth.The bottom lineA work in progress might best describe Pinterest these days. The stock has fallen more than 70% from its high and trades at a price-to-sales ratio of almost 6, on par with the COVID-19 crash in 2020.The lower valuation probably reflects a lot of the risks I mentioned above. But the company likely needs several quarters of execution, member growth, and financials trending in the right direction again for the recent rally to become a full-fledged comeback. It's still way too early to tell, which is why investors should remain cautious for the time being.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":330,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9904760452,"gmtCreate":1660096465678,"gmtModify":1703477869518,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sounds like some trouble is brewing again.

Earnings Season Has Been Better Than Feared for Tech</b></p><p>While Meta Platforms (META)  underwhelmed, the other big-5 U.S. tech giants -- Apple (AAPL) , Amazon.com (AMZN) , Microsoft  (MSFT) and Alphabet (GOOGL) -- have posted numbers that on the whole topped investor expectations, even if not all of their figures beat consensus analyst estimates.</p><p>In addition, earnings season has seen better-than-feared numbers -- in some cases,<i>much</i>better than feared -- from prominent/beaten-down Internet companies such as Netflix (NFLX) , Uber (UBER) and PayPal (PYPL) , as well as from a wide array of chip developers, chip equipment makers and enterprise software firms.</p><p>It still hasn&#39;t been hard to find disappointing results and/or guidance from well-known tech companies (more on that shortly). But it&#39;s fair to say that spending trends in fields such as e-commerce, high-end smartphones, cloud software, public cloud services, chip manufacturing equipment and automotive and cloud chip markets are thus far proving more resilient than what many of those who were panic-selling tech stocks in May and June feared.</p><p><b>2. Prices for Oil and Other Key Commodities Have Tumbled</b></p><p>While recent drops in oil/gasoline prices have naturally gotten the most attention, prices for many other important commodities, including wheat, copper, steel and aluminum, are also now well below the highs they set earlier this year. Also, freight shipping prices (though still above pre-Covid levels) have generally come down a lot from their 2021 and early-2022 highs.</p><p>The impact of lower commodity and freight prices should make itself felt in upcoming inflation data, starting with the July CPI report (due on Wednesday morning). Moreover, there&#39;s a lot of evidence that oil price swings have an outsized impact on inflation expectations and consumer sentiment, in both directions.</p><p><b>3.</b> <b>Consumer Spending and Jobs Data Still Looks Pretty Healthy</b></p><p>Banks and payment networks reporting this earnings season have signaled that consumer spending and balance sheets remain strong, outside of some pressures among lower-income cohorts. And such commentary aligns with more recent card-spending data that points to continued strength in various discretionary spending fields, albeit with a shift in spending towards services and away from home goods.</p><p>Meanwhile, the July non-farm payrolls report suggests the labor market remains pretty tight, in spite of the layoff announcements that have happened in tech and a handful of other sectors. Low unemployment and high wage growth not only directly bolster consumer spending, but do so indirectly by making workers less worried about their job security (or barring that, confident in their ability to find new work should they be laid off).</p><p><b>4. Some Valuations Still Aren&#39;t High By Historical Standards</b></p><p>Alphabet can still be had for a forward P/E (22) less than what it generally traded for from 2017 to 2019. Many quality chip developers and equipment makers, including a slew of firms that recently posted reassuring earnings reports, still carry forward P/Es in the mid-teens or lower. And though some high-growth cloud software firms carry steep valuations, others can still be had for forwardEV/salesmultiples ranging between 4 and 7 (equal to or less than what they were often valued at in the late 2010s).</p><p>Potential estimate cuts admittedly need to be taken into account when gauging tech valuations. And so does the fact that yields for long-dated Treasuries (and with them, the discount rates that are applied to future cash flows) are now well above where they stood a year ago. But all the same, valuations remain fairly reasonable for many well-known tech companies, provided one is confident we aren&#39;t about to head into a major recession.</p><p><b>Things to Be Concerned About:</b></p><p><b>1. The Fed Is Showing No Signs of Backing Down</b></p><p>As equities and bonds alike have rallied in recent weeks,one Fed member after another has signaled that Jerome Powell &amp; Co. plan to maintain a fairly hawkish stance through year&#39;s end and potentially beyond, given that inflation for now remains well above the Fed&#39;s official, 2% target.</p><p>It&#39;s not just rate hikes (and their attendant effects on economic activity and yields/discount rates) that investors need to account for here:The Fed&#39;s plans to shrink the size of its balance sheet (i.e. quantitative tightening, or QT) stands to both drain liquidity from financial markets that have gorged on it in recent years, as well as create additional upward pressure for long yields. Moreover, the resilience of consumer spending, labor markets and equities/risk assets in recent months likely makes the Fed less squeamish about continuing its present course (it&#39;s safe to assume the proverbial &#34;Fed put&#34; resides at market levels well below current ones).</p><p><b>2. Inflation Is Still Pretty High in Some Areas</b></p><p>Recent drops in commodity and freight prices are good news inflation-wise, and so are efforts by retailers to unload excess inventories of goods that had seen pandemic-driven demand spikes. But labor and services inflation aren&#39;t showing much sign of abating. And in some other fields, such as housing and autos, some recent easing of inflationary pressures doesn&#39;t change the fact that prices are generally well above where they stood a couple years ago.</p><p>The upshot: It will probably take more than lower oil/commodity and freight prices to get inflation in the ballpark of 2% anytime soon. And the Fed is undoubtedly aware of this...as well as of how rebounding stock prices and some recent easing of financial conditions could lead inflation to reignite a bit.</p><p><b>3. Many Investors Have Been Returning to Their Bad 2020/2021 Habits</b></p><p>Those hoping the bloodletting that happened from November to June would lead growth investors to be more mindful of valuations when buying in the future have to be disappointed by July&#39;s market action. In spite of higher yields and a tightening Fed, many of the tech sector&#39;s biggest gainers in recent trading days have been companies that still sport high multiples and in many cases are also still a ways away from turning profitable.</p><p>SaaS stocks trading for more than 15 times their forward EV/sales multiples have often outperformed peers that are growing nearly as fast but carry multiples more than 50% lower. And a wide gamut of speculative and highly unprofitable firms, including various SPACs and EV/clean energy plays, have also posted big gains.</p><p>What&#39;s more, meme-stock traders have regained some of their gambling appetite, as the recent craziness surrounding AMTD Digital  (HKD) drives home. And to an extent, so have crypto traders.</p><p>To be fair, short-squeezes have undoubtedly given a boost to some speculative plays. And it&#39;s also quite possible that some of the growth funds that got burned earlier this year and were subsequentlyscared into sellingare now chasing high-multiple growth stocks higher in a desperate attempt to pare their 2022 losses. But either way, a lot of the recent action in high-beta risk assets suggests the market will be delivering more hard lessons to speculators and valuation-indifferent growth investors before the dust settles.</p><p><b>4. &#39;Better Than Feared&#39; Tech Demand Trends Doesn&#39;t Mean &#39;As Good as in 2021&#39;</b></p><p>For all the reassuring disclosures made thus far by tech companies during earnings season, it&#39;s still a stretch to say that business conditions for the sector are as healthy as they were 6-to-12 months ago.</p><p>Many consumer hardware markets (PCs, home electronics, graphics cards, low-end smartphones) have weakened due to both macro pressures and consumer spending shifting towards services, and there are also some initial signs of softening enterprise hardware demand. Online ad spend is clearly under pressure -- particularly sales of brand ads and mobile app install ads. And while many cloud software and services firms continue seeing brisk growth, their earnings calls are rife with comments about lengthening deal cycles and slowing activity among certain types of clients (SMBs, retailers, etc.).</p><p>What&#39;s more, a strong dollar has become a big top-line headwind for many U.S. multinationals. And though consumer and corporate spending still don&#39;t look bad overall in the U.S., they appear to be a little shakier in Europe. While the sky isn&#39;t falling for the tech sector, it&#39;s not perfectly sunny right now either.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1619508253632","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Earnings Season Has Been Better Than Feared for TechWhile Meta Platforms (META)  underwhelmed, the other big-5 U.S. tech giants -- Apple (AAPL) , Amazon.com (AMZN) , Microsoft  (MSFT) and Alphabet (GOOGL) -- have posted numbers that on the whole topped investor expectations, even if not all of their figures beat consensus analyst estimates.In addition, earnings season has seen better-than-feared numbers -- in some cases,muchbetter than feared -- from prominent/beaten-down Internet companies such as Netflix (NFLX) , Uber (UBER) and PayPal (PYPL) , as well as from a wide array of chip developers, chip equipment makers and enterprise software firms.It still hasn't been hard to find disappointing results and/or guidance from well-known tech companies (more on that shortly). But it's fair to say that spending trends in fields such as e-commerce, high-end smartphones, cloud software, public cloud services, chip manufacturing equipment and automotive and cloud chip markets are thus far proving more resilient than what many of those who were panic-selling tech stocks in May and June feared.2. Prices for Oil and Other Key Commodities Have TumbledWhile recent drops in oil/gasoline prices have naturally gotten the most attention, prices for many other important commodities, including wheat, copper, steel and aluminum, are also now well below the highs they set earlier this year. Also, freight shipping prices (though still above pre-Covid levels) have generally come down a lot from their 2021 and early-2022 highs.The impact of lower commodity and freight prices should make itself felt in upcoming inflation data, starting with the July CPI report (due on Wednesday morning). Moreover, there's a lot of evidence that oil price swings have an outsized impact on inflation expectations and consumer sentiment, in both directions.3. Consumer Spending and Jobs Data Still Looks Pretty HealthyBanks and payment networks reporting this earnings season have signaled that consumer spending and balance sheets remain strong, outside of some pressures among lower-income cohorts. And such commentary aligns with more recent card-spending data that points to continued strength in various discretionary spending fields, albeit with a shift in spending towards services and away from home goods.Meanwhile, the July non-farm payrolls report suggests the labor market remains pretty tight, in spite of the layoff announcements that have happened in tech and a handful of other sectors. Low unemployment and high wage growth not only directly bolster consumer spending, but do so indirectly by making workers less worried about their job security (or barring that, confident in their ability to find new work should they be laid off).4. Some Valuations Still Aren't High By Historical StandardsAlphabet can still be had for a forward P/E (22) less than what it generally traded for from 2017 to 2019. Many quality chip developers and equipment makers, including a slew of firms that recently posted reassuring earnings reports, still carry forward P/Es in the mid-teens or lower. And though some high-growth cloud software firms carry steep valuations, others can still be had for forwardEV/salesmultiples ranging between 4 and 7 (equal to or less than what they were often valued at in the late 2010s).Potential estimate cuts admittedly need to be taken into account when gauging tech valuations. And so does the fact that yields for long-dated Treasuries (and with them, the discount rates that are applied to future cash flows) are now well above where they stood a year ago. But all the same, valuations remain fairly reasonable for many well-known tech companies, provided one is confident we aren't about to head into a major recession.Things to Be Concerned About:1. The Fed Is Showing No Signs of Backing DownAs equities and bonds alike have rallied in recent weeks,one Fed member after another has signaled that Jerome Powell & Co. plan to maintain a fairly hawkish stance through year's end and potentially beyond, given that inflation for now remains well above the Fed's official, 2% target.It's not just rate hikes (and their attendant effects on economic activity and yields/discount rates) that investors need to account for here:The Fed's plans to shrink the size of its balance sheet (i.e. quantitative tightening, or QT) stands to both drain liquidity from financial markets that have gorged on it in recent years, as well as create additional upward pressure for long yields. Moreover, the resilience of consumer spending, labor markets and equities/risk assets in recent months likely makes the Fed less squeamish about continuing its present course (it's safe to assume the proverbial \"Fed put\" resides at market levels well below current ones).2. Inflation Is Still Pretty High in Some AreasRecent drops in commodity and freight prices are good news inflation-wise, and so are efforts by retailers to unload excess inventories of goods that had seen pandemic-driven demand spikes. But labor and services inflation aren't showing much sign of abating. And in some other fields, such as housing and autos, some recent easing of inflationary pressures doesn't change the fact that prices are generally well above where they stood a couple years ago.The upshot: It will probably take more than lower oil/commodity and freight prices to get inflation in the ballpark of 2% anytime soon. And the Fed is undoubtedly aware of this...as well as of how rebounding stock prices and some recent easing of financial conditions could lead inflation to reignite a bit.3. Many Investors Have Been Returning to Their Bad 2020/2021 HabitsThose hoping the bloodletting that happened from November to June would lead growth investors to be more mindful of valuations when buying in the future have to be disappointed by July's market action. In spite of higher yields and a tightening Fed, many of the tech sector's biggest gainers in recent trading days have been companies that still sport high multiples and in many cases are also still a ways away from turning profitable.SaaS stocks trading for more than 15 times their forward EV/sales multiples have often outperformed peers that are growing nearly as fast but carry multiples more than 50% lower. And a wide gamut of speculative and highly unprofitable firms, including various SPACs and EV/clean energy plays, have also posted big gains.What's more, meme-stock traders have regained some of their gambling appetite, as the recent craziness surrounding AMTD Digital  (HKD) drives home. And to an extent, so have crypto traders.To be fair, short-squeezes have undoubtedly given a boost to some speculative plays. And it's also quite possible that some of the growth funds that got burned earlier this year and were subsequentlyscared into sellingare now chasing high-multiple growth stocks higher in a desperate attempt to pare their 2022 losses. But either way, a lot of the recent action in high-beta risk assets suggests the market will be delivering more hard lessons to speculators and valuation-indifferent growth investors before the dust settles.4. 'Better Than Feared' Tech Demand Trends Doesn't Mean 'As Good as in 2021'For all the reassuring disclosures made thus far by tech companies during earnings season, it's still a stretch to say that business conditions for the sector are as healthy as they were 6-to-12 months ago.Many consumer hardware markets (PCs, home electronics, graphics cards, low-end smartphones) have weakened due to both macro pressures and consumer spending shifting towards services, and there are also some initial signs of softening enterprise hardware demand. Online ad spend is clearly under pressure -- particularly sales of brand ads and mobile app install ads. And while many cloud software and services firms continue seeing brisk growth, their earnings calls are rife with comments about lengthening deal cycles and slowing activity among certain types of clients (SMBs, retailers, etc.).What's more, a strong dollar has become a big top-line headwind for many U.S. multinationals. And though consumer and corporate spending still don't look bad overall in the U.S., they appear to be a little shakier in Europe. While the sky isn't falling for the tech sector, it's not perfectly sunny right now either.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9905148814,"gmtCreate":1659841874840,"gmtModify":1703766999622,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sad news for those who bought above $62.[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Sad news for those who bought above $62.[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Sad news for those who bought above $62.[Happy] [Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9905148814","repostId":"2257611395","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2257611395","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1659840526,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2257611395?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-07 10:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Amazon Stock a Buy After Agreeing to Buy iRobot at a 22% Premium?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2257611395","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"iRobot's business is struggling in 2022, likely motivating management to sell to the stronger company.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>On Aug. 5, <b>Amazon</b> announced it was buying <b>iRobot</b>, which makes robotic vacuum cleaners including the Roomba, for $61 per share in an all-cash deal -- a 22% premium to where iRobot stock traded at the time. This acquisition news understandably overshadowed the release of iRobot&#39;s financial results for the second quarter of 2022. However, considering Q2 showed a sharp drop in revenue and profitability, perhaps this explains why iRobot is selling to Amazon at this time.</p><p>For iRobot shareholders, this is likely a disappointing finale for a stock that had so much promise, although its slight buyout premium is welcome.

Moreover, it shows no sign of hitting a growth ceiling anytime soon and it&#39;s spitting out tons of cash flow. That&#39;s something that can work in investors&#39; favor the longer they hold.

While my heart breaks for the citizens of Ukraine during their darkest hours, the current situation illuminates how important Palantir (PLTR) is to America and its allies. While PLTR was founded in Silicon Valley, its corporate values and commitments to America's security are drastically different than other software companies. Many within the sector and from the outside looking in have politicized PLTR as projects aligned with America's defense and intelligence agencies have been portrayed as controversial. It's abundantly clear that evil and terror still exist, and the thought of attaining a utopian society is unattainable. While the world is an imperfect place, I am thankful to have been born in the United States and grateful for companies such as PLTR. PLTR has transformed from a black box company whose software was utilized to hunt down terrorists and facilitate special operations missions to a full enterprise software company that empowers organizations to make critical operational decisions.</p><div></div> <p>Since February of 2021, growth companies have been caught in a downward spiral, and many of the overhyped companies have shed 50%, 60%, 70%, and even 80% of their value. An infatuation with growth at all costs drove many companies to unrealistic valuations based on certain financial metrics. From its direct listing, PLTR has been a controversial stock, with many classifying it as a hype stock as investors flocked to PLTR trying to make a quick buck. I have been bullish on PLTR since it went public, I bought shares directly after the direct listing in 2020 at $9.80, I bought shares in the teens, in the twenties, and I am still buying shares now. Outside of Microsoft (MSFT), due to its operating system, PLTR has the potential to become the most important software company in America. The sharp decline in share price has left many investment positions in the red, but that only matters if you're a trader, need the money tomorrow, or have a short time horizon for the investment. One of the most difficult things is timing the markets as very few people can call tops and bottoms. PLTR finished 2021, generating $1.54 billion in revenue with 31% adjusted operating income and 28% adjusted free cash flow margins. PLTR continues to sign new contracts with existing clients while bringing new customers into the fold, forming new relationships and vertices. PLTR has a long runway for growth, with enticing margins. It's been a sea of red, but sometimes the largest gains come from facing adversity head-on.</p> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903758414276.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Palantir</p></figcaption></figure></p> <h2><strong>Palantir finished 2021 with impressive metrics but how are they valued compared to other application software companies in the information technology space</strong></h2> <p>Some will look at PLTR as an unprofitable company since the recorded negative net income for 2021. There are several measures of profitability and financial performance. Some companies hold themselves to an EBITDA metric, some to free cash flow (FCF), and others to the bottom line of net income. The analyst community tends to emphasize net income, which is a fundamental metric that can drastically impact a stock's price as it measures the ability to deliver profits. Net income represents a company's profits from an accounting standpoint, which includes every line item, including non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization. FCF measures the actual cash flow that is available to shareholders. FCF is the amount of cash that a company has generated after adjusting for non-cash expenses, capital expenditures, including property and other physical assets, and changes in working capital. Some investors place a high value on a company FCF, representing the amount of cash that a company generates. FCF is important because it's the cash flow stream that can be utilized to pay down debt, make acquisitions, pay a dividend, and buy back shares.</p><div></div> <p>I like to focus on FCF because it's harder to manipulate the numbers, cash is generated from operations, and cash is utilized in CapEx. Something that many investors overlook when investing in stocks is that they are buying an equity stake in a company. Suppose you were going to buy a business. In that case, regardless of whether it's a 4 unit apartment building, a coffee shop, or a manufacturing company, you're buying a business for its ability to generate cash. Although many investors don't look at it through this lens, buying stocks isn't different. When you're buying a stock, you're essentially paying the present value for the company's future cash flow. A company can grow its revenue indefinitely, but if they aren't generating positive cash flow then are they really achieving their goal and responsibility to shareholders?</p> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903756244316.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Palantir</p></figcaption></figure></p> <p>If a company has FCF over a period of 5-years of $20, $40, $60, $80, $100 or $20, $25, $30, $35, $40, which <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> would you pay more for? You would be enticed to pay a larger multiple for the first set, which is a larger and quicker growing FCF set. While PLTR did finish 2021 with negative net income, which decreased significantly YoY, they were FCF positive.</p> <p>Some companies put their Adjusted FCF number in their reports: Adjusted EBITDA, plus or minus changes in current and long-term assets and liabilities, minus any cash payments for taxes, restructuring, and interest. In 2021, PLTR delivered $424 million in Adjusted FCF, which was a 28% margin. I am going to use standard FCF and compare PLTR to other young application software companies, including <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNOW\">Snowflake</a> (SNOW), The Trade Desk (TTD), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DDOG\">Datadog</a> (DDOG), Splunk (SPLK), Autodesk (ADSK), Unity Software (U) and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OKTA\">Okta Inc.</a> (OKTA) to see how their market cap to FCF multiples compare to each other.</p> <p>Why do I look at the market cap to FCF? I want to see the multiple Mr. Market is placing on a company's FCF and opportunities within a sector. Of the 8 companies I selected PLTR, SNOW, TTD, DDOG, SPLK, ADSK, U, and OKTA, PLTR trades at the lowest market cap to FCF multiple and has the second-lowest market cap. PLTR is currently trading at 70.32x FCF while the other 7 companies have a wide range where U is generating negative FCF and SNOW is trading at 621.61x FCF. It's interesting that TTD and PLTR were separated by only $2.5 million in FCF, yet TTD trades at 93.45x FCF as its market cap is almost $8 billion larger. Cathie Wood and the team at Ark Invest sold their entire position in PLTR and have been adding shares of OKTA, which trades at 270.8x FCF. Looking at the current market caps, FCF generated, and market cap to FCF multiples, PLTR looks undervalued compared to others in the group.</p><div></div> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903748312325.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Seeking Alpha / Steven Fiorillo</p></figcaption></figure></p> <h2><strong>Comparing PLTR's Income Statement to OKTA and SNOW.</strong></h2> <p>Another aspect that people overlook is corporate expenses.

Here is how everything lines up YoY:</p> <ul> <li>Cost of Revenue <ul> <li>PLTR decrease -$13.1 million -3.72%</li> <li>SNOW increase $215.8 million 88.95%</li> <li>OKTA increase $176.8 million 81.21%</li> </ul> </li> <li>Selling General &amp; Admin Expenses <ul> <li>PLTR decrease -$127.1 million -9.39%</li> <li>SNOW increase $352.9 million 53.84%</li> <li>OKTA increase $602.5 million 100.57%</li> </ul> </li> <li>R&amp;D <ul> <li>PLTR decrease -$173.2 million -30.89%</li> <li>SNOW increase $229 million 96.26%</li> <li>OKTA increase $246.5 million 110.64%</li> </ul>\n<div></div> </li> <li>Total Operating Expenses <ul> <li>PLTR decrease -$300.3 million -15.69%</li> <li>SNOW increase $582 million 65.14%</li> <li>OKTA increase $849 million 103.3%</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>PLTR's revenue increased by $449.2 million (41.11%) YoY while their cost of revenue decreased by -3.73%, and their operating expenses declined by -15.69%. SNOW grew its revenue by $627.3 million (105.96%) YoY, but this wasn't true growth, it was paid for. SNOW's cost of revenue increased by $215.8 million (88.95%), while their total operating expenses increased by $582 million (65.14%) for a total of $797.8 million. Their revenue growth was manufactured as it cost SNOW $797.8 million to gain $627.3 million in revenue growth. OKTA is in a similar boat as SNOW. OKTA's cost of revenue increased by $176.8 million (81.21%) YoY and their total operating expenses by $849 million (103.3%). OKTA spent an additional $1.03 billion to generate $464.8 million in additional revenue for 2021. Another interesting aspect is that PLTR grew its gross profit by $462.4 million (62.48%) YoY while decreasing its overall expenses. Of the three, PLTR grew its gross profit by the largest amount monetarily ($462.4 million), yet its revenue grew by the least YoY. By the numbers, PLTR has the best income statement of the three, trades at the lowest price to FCF multiple, and has decreasing expenses, yet Ark Invest sold off its position and is adding OKTA. It seems quite peculiar that SNOW and OKTA are trading at larger valuations.</p> <h2><strong>Ark Invest confirmed why they sold and the reason doesn't make sense</strong></h2> <p>Meet Kevin did an interview with Brett Winton, Director of Research at ARK Invest. In the interview, Mr. Winton touched on why Ark-Invest closed out their PLTR position after acquiring throughout the $20s.</p> <blockquote> <p>Meet Kevin: Hey you know this one's coming. Palantir. What happened?</p> <p>Brett: Sure, I mean like I described as we're in risk-off periods we tend to consolidate the portfolios, so um, we had some concerns about their competitive positioning within the government space and we had better risk money elsewhere. Uh and so it's not you know, when you are making a decision to like consolidate the portfolio, it's not like those are an easy decision, but you look at kind of the risk return profile for all of your positions and you say what's lowest on the stack rank, relative to something else, which we think has comparable upside.</p> <p>Meet Kevin: That makes sense. So in risk off periods to make this simple, basically when prices are going down narrow into the ones maybe you have the most conviction in. Is that what you're saying?</p>\n<div></div> <p>Brett: Exactly. Yeah, yeah. If we have a better edge somewhere else then we'll operate somewhere else.</p> </blockquote> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903757316651.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Palantir</p></figcaption></figure></p> <p>I understand the premise around consolidation and believing there is more alpha to be created in a different position. That portion makes complete sense. What doesn't make sense is that Mr. Whiton specifically indicates that ARK Invest had concerns about PLTR's competitive positioning within the government space. While the government side revenue increased by 47.05% YoY ($287 million) from $610 million to $897 million, their customer count stayed stagnant at 90 customers YoY. I covered this in my article after PLTR delivered their 2021 earnings report.</p> <p>I don't see this being an issue, and now that war has broken out in Ukraine, I would be willing to speculate that PLTR will be very busy with demonstrations and request for proposals (RFPs). Germany has long resisted pressure from the United States and others to raise its defense spending. Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Sunday, 3/6/22, Germany would sharply increase its spending on defense to more than 2% of its economic output in one of a series of policy shifts prompted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Connect the dots, Alex Karp has given a series of interviews over the past two weeks from Germany. 2 weeks ago, Alex Karp spoke with Europe Strategy Lead Jan Hiesserich, in Germany about Palantir's relationship to Germany, what makes Palantir platforms unique, and how our products can create value in Germany and beyond. Just last week Alex Karp also spoke with Kai Beckmann, Member of the Executive Board of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, and CEO Electronics, in Germany to discuss cross-industry collaboration and the unique challenges of the semiconductor shortage.</p> <p>I think Ark Invest acted prematurely during an ongoing selloff that has decimated their fund's returns. Everybody loved Cathie Woods and her team on the way up, and now their funds have become the black sheep of the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a> world. Honestly, I disagree with liquidating the PLTR position, but their flagship fund Ark Innovation ETF (ARKK) is still up 149.73% over the past five years, so they deserve credit for getting a lot right and generating returns for long-term shareholders.</p><div></div> <p>When I went through their Q4 and 2021 earnings report I was surprised that their customer count stayed at 90, but I wasn't concerned. The more important slide to evaluate is their Government customer cohort growth table. Each year of contracts has grown its revenue base YoY. In 2018 PLTR's government revenue was $255 million, $224 million was from existing contracts prior to 2018, and $31 million or 12.16% was from new contracts secured in 2018. Now, look at the YoY growth. In 2019, the $224 million of existing contracts grew by $59 million (26%) YoY, while the $31 million of new contracts from 2018 almost doubled in value as they grew by $30 million (97%). In 2019 PLTR only added $2 million of new government contracts, which was less than 1% (0.58%) of the annual government revenue. Fast forward to 2020, PLTR's overall government revenue increased by $264 million or 76%. The individual tranches of government contracts experienced significant growth YoY. The $283 million of contracts prior to 2018 grow by another $33 million or 12%. The new contracts from 2018 that grew from $31 million to $61 million in 2019 grew by an additional $138 million or 226% in 2020 as this accounted for $199 million of the $610 million government revenue. The $2 million of new government contracts PLTR signed in 2019 grew by $16 million or 800% to $18 million in 2020. In 2020 PLTR added $77 million worth of new contracts on the government side. In 2021 the existing base of government contracts prior to 2018 grew by an additional $21 million or 7%. 2018's contracts grew by an additional $83 million or 42% to $282 million from $199 million in 2019. In 2019, PLTR secured only $2 million of new contracts, which grew into $18 million of revenue in 2020, and in 2021, this increased by an additional $25 million (139%). In 2020 PLTR signed $77 million in new contracts, which grew YoY by $150 million (195%).</p> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-1646790375675759.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Palantir</p></figcaption></figure></p> <p>Not a single government agency left PLTRs ecosystem, and each tranche of contracts grew its revenue base YoY. I am not sure how one can be concerned with PLTRs competitive positioning within the government space when the government's ide revenue increased by 47.05% YoY. First, the questions were directed toward the commercial space since PLTRs revenue was primarily generated from the government sector. Now that PLTR has delivered on the commercial side, questions are being raised about not adding new government clients/agencies. 47.05% YoY revenue is 47.05% YoY revenue regardless if their customer count on the government side increases from 90 to 120 or if the 90 clients add services or enter into additional agreements. If revenue was decreasing, that would be a concern, but it's not. The government business segment is healthy, and the situation in Ukraine should benefit PLTR in 2022. I wish PLTR would increase its customer count and revenue due to different circumstances, but the war in Ukraine has made many of America's allies realize that defense spending is needed now more than ever, and PLTR will be in a position to pick up additional contracts.</p> <h2><strong>Why I am extremely bullish for Palantir's future</strong></h2> <p>Could you imagine setting up a demonstration with PLTR, providing them a dataset to analyze, and PLTR discovering a terrorist plot that wasn't on the radar in the demo? Peter Theil gave an interview on Bloomberg and was asked about this story. He acknowledged that a government agency provided data for a demo, this did occur, and the government agency had to reclassify all types of data as classified. When he was asked directly if he thought PLTR has helped thwart multiple terrorist plots, he responded with, \"I suspect that's true.\" PLTR builds software platforms and provides solutions years in advance before clients know they need that capability. There is a reason why PLTR is a government favorite, and that is unlikely to change. Regardless of what people may assume, government agencies need the very best software from the military down to SEC operations, and PLTR is a unique vendor willing to build exactly what the government needs.</p> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903758204603.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Palantir</p></figcaption></figure></p> <p>It's been a busy Q1, and I want to go over some of the partnerships that PLTR has established, leading to multiple vertices. In the beginning of January PLTR and Hyundai Heavy Industries formed a Data Joint Venture. This is a $25+ million deal for PLTR, which will allow the two entities to build a new big data platform for Hyundai Heavy Industries. Hyundai Heavy Industries is a $5 billion South Korean company that has grown into the world's leading heavy industries organization which has diversified from shipbuilding to offshore &amp; engineering, Naval &amp; Special Ships, and engine &amp; machinery. Hyundai Heavy is a global entity with partnerships throughout the globe. Based on the agreement, Hyundai Heavy Industries and PLTR will jointly build a big data platform for the Group's key affiliates related to shipbuilding &amp; offshore engineering, energy, and industrial machinery. Once the big data platform for each affiliate is built, the two parties plan to create a joint venture that specializes in developing and selling big data platform services. The big data platform will also be adopted by energy affiliates, such as Hyundai Oilbank.</p> <p>The other critical partnership is with Jacobs Engineering Group (J), which is a $16.53 billion company. J will leverage its existing O&amp;M portfolio, as well as proprietary machine learning modules and wastewater process optimization tools to develop a dynamic management solution suite on PLTR's Foundry system. This will connect day-to-day site operations with AI to optimize power, chemical usage, and asset management. Like Hyundai Heavy Industries, J and PLTR are planning other joint technical and programmatic initiatives to serve U.S. federal government customers. J is the ideal partner for PLTR as they provide consulting, technical, scientific, and project delivery services for the government and private sectors in the United States, Europe, Canada, India, rest of Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, Mexico, the Middle East, and Africa. The company operates in two segments, Critical Mission Solutions, and People &amp; Places Solutions. The Critical Mission Solutions segment provides cybersecurity, data analytics, systems, and software application integration and consulting enterprise and mission IT, engineering and design, nuclear, enterprise-level operations and maintenance, and other technical consulting solutions. The People &amp; Places Solutions segment offers data analytics, artificial intelligence and automation, software development, digitally-driven consulting, planning and architecture, program management, and other technical consulting solutions.</p> <p>These are the clients and projects PLTR investors should become ecstatic about. Unlike straight contract revenue, PLTR is developing platforms with industry leaders who are already connected throughout their respective industries on the government and commercial side. These aren't just contracts for revenue, they are strategic partnerships that will lead to other business verticals. The proprietary platforms that PLTR will build with J and Hyundai Heavy will create opportunities for initial revenue through their joint ventures but put PLTR in a position to possibly provide other services throughout each of their respective business networks. This is exactly what we want PLTR to be doing, creating industry-specific platforms with commercial partners that can be sold to their clients and partners replicating what PLTR did with AirBus through Skywise.</p> <p>Everything comes back to net income and FCF. PLTR closed in 2021 with an FCF margin of 20.83%. Today, PLTR has a market cap of around $22.59 billion and trades at a 70.32x FCF multiple, which is low compared to similar companies. PLTR has always beat its estimates and in 2021, guided up for its end-of-year results. If PLTR only meets its estimates with a 30% revenue YoY increase and maintains its current FCF margin, then it will produce $917.31 million in FCF in 2025. At the same multiple as PLTR trades today, PLTR would have a $64.51 billion market cap. If PLTR's multiple compressed to 50x FCF, they would have a $45.87 billion market cap in 2025. This is assuming that PLTR only meets their internal expectations. I can see a scenario where PLTR replicates 2021 and over-delivers with 40% YoY growth on revenue. If this occurs, PLTR will generate $1.24 billion in FCF in 2025, and at today's multiple, its market cap would be $86.76 billion. Based on today's valuation and PLTR's numbers, there is no reason why PLTR can't generate 2-4x returns by the end of 2025, and I feel that could be conservative. I plan on holding PLTR throughout this decade, and if PLTR doesn't get acquired, they should have no problem reaching the $100 billion valuations well before 2030.</p> <p><figure><picture><span><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/3/8/12629971-16467903747725.png\"/></span></picture><figcaption><p>Steven Fiorillo</p></figcaption></figure></p> <h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2> <p>I am extremely bullish on PLTR's future and use the volatility to add shares at valuations close to PLTR direct listing. This is a long-term investment for me, and I plan on continuing to add if PLTR goes lower and as it rebounds. PLTR is going to see increased spending on the government side due to geopolitical tensions and is forging terrific strategic partnerships. Shareholders should be excited that PLTR is building software platforms with companies like J, that can be sold throughout their global network. From a valuation standpoint, PLTR looks cheap compared to other software application companies and based on PLTRs internal growth metrics and today's valuation of price to FCF, PLTR looks like a multi-bagger in the coming years.</p>\n</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>War In Ukraine Sparks Defense Spending And Palantir Becomes Mr. Right Place Right Time</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\">\nWar In Ukraine Sparks Defense Spending And Palantir Becomes Mr. Right Place Right Time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-11 21:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4494001-palantir-stock-bullish-ukraine-war-sparks-defense-spending><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Andreas Rentz/Getty Images Entertainment Geopolitical tensions have escalated, and the war in Ukraine has created devastating ramifications.

While my heart breaks for the citizens of Ukraine during their darkest hours, the current situation illuminates how important Palantir (PLTR) is to America and its allies. While PLTR was founded in Silicon Valley, its corporate values and commitments to America's security are drastically different than other software companies. Many within the sector and from the outside looking in have politicized PLTR as projects aligned with America's defense and intelligence agencies have been portrayed as controversial. It's abundantly clear that evil and terror still exist, and the thought of attaining a utopian society is unattainable. While the world is an imperfect place, I am thankful to have been born in the United States and grateful for companies such as PLTR. PLTR has transformed from a black box company whose software was utilized to hunt down terrorists and facilitate special operations missions to a full enterprise software company that empowers organizations to make critical operational decisions. Since February of 2021, growth companies have been caught in a downward spiral, and many of the overhyped companies have shed 50%, 60%, 70%, and even 80% of their value. An infatuation with growth at all costs drove many companies to unrealistic valuations based on certain financial metrics. From its direct listing, PLTR has been a controversial stock, with many classifying it as a hype stock as investors flocked to PLTR trying to make a quick buck. I have been bullish on PLTR since it went public, I bought shares directly after the direct listing in 2020 at $9.80, I bought shares in the teens, in the twenties, and I am still buying shares now. Outside of Microsoft (MSFT), due to its operating system, PLTR has the potential to become the most important software company in America. The sharp decline in share price has left many investment positions in the red, but that only matters if you're a trader, need the money tomorrow, or have a short time horizon for the investment. One of the most difficult things is timing the markets as very few people can call tops and bottoms. PLTR finished 2021, generating $1.54 billion in revenue with 31% adjusted operating income and 28% adjusted free cash flow margins. PLTR continues to sign new contracts with existing clients while bringing new customers into the fold, forming new relationships and vertices. PLTR has a long runway for growth, with enticing margins. It's been a sea of red, but sometimes the largest gains come from facing adversity head-on. Palantir Palantir finished 2021 with impressive metrics but how are they valued compared to other application software companies in the information technology space Some will look at PLTR as an unprofitable company since the recorded negative net income for 2021. There are several measures of profitability and financial performance. Some companies hold themselves to an EBITDA metric, some to free cash flow (FCF), and others to the bottom line of net income. The analyst community tends to emphasize net income, which is a fundamental metric that can drastically impact a stock's price as it measures the ability to deliver profits. Net income represents a company's profits from an accounting standpoint, which includes every line item, including non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization. FCF measures the actual cash flow that is available to shareholders. FCF is the amount of cash that a company has generated after adjusting for non-cash expenses, capital expenditures, including property and other physical assets, and changes in working capital. Some investors place a high value on a company FCF, representing the amount of cash that a company generates. FCF is important because it's the cash flow stream that can be utilized to pay down debt, make acquisitions, pay a dividend, and buy back shares. I like to focus on FCF because it's harder to manipulate the numbers, cash is generated from operations, and cash is utilized in CapEx. Something that many investors overlook when investing in stocks is that they are buying an equity stake in a company. Suppose you were going to buy a business. In that case, regardless of whether it's a 4 unit apartment building, a coffee shop, or a manufacturing company, you're buying a business for its ability to generate cash. Although many investors don't look at it through this lens, buying stocks isn't different. When you're buying a stock, you're essentially paying the present value for the company's future cash flow. A company can grow its revenue indefinitely, but if they aren't generating positive cash flow then are they really achieving their goal and responsibility to shareholders? Palantir If a company has FCF over a period of 5-years of $20, $40, $60, $80, $100 or $20, $25, $30, $35, $40, which one would you pay more for? You would be enticed to pay a larger multiple for the first set, which is a larger and quicker growing FCF set. While PLTR did finish 2021 with negative net income, which decreased significantly YoY, they were FCF positive. Some companies put their Adjusted FCF number in their reports: Adjusted EBITDA, plus or minus changes in current and long-term assets and liabilities, minus any cash payments for taxes, restructuring, and interest. In 2021, PLTR delivered $424 million in Adjusted FCF, which was a 28% margin. I am going to use standard FCF and compare PLTR to other young application software companies, including Snowflake (SNOW), The Trade Desk (TTD), Datadog (DDOG), Splunk (SPLK), Autodesk (ADSK), Unity Software (U) and Okta Inc. (OKTA) to see how their market cap to FCF multiples compare to each other. Why do I look at the market cap to FCF? I want to see the multiple Mr. Market is placing on a company's FCF and opportunities within a sector. Of the 8 companies I selected PLTR, SNOW, TTD, DDOG, SPLK, ADSK, U, and OKTA, PLTR trades at the lowest market cap to FCF multiple and has the second-lowest market cap. PLTR is currently trading at 70.32x FCF while the other 7 companies have a wide range where U is generating negative FCF and SNOW is trading at 621.61x FCF. It's interesting that TTD and PLTR were separated by only $2.5 million in FCF, yet TTD trades at 93.45x FCF as its market cap is almost $8 billion larger. Cathie Wood and the team at Ark Invest sold their entire position in PLTR and have been adding shares of OKTA, which trades at 270.8x FCF. Looking at the current market caps, FCF generated, and market cap to FCF multiples, PLTR looks undervalued compared to others in the group. Seeking Alpha / Steven Fiorillo Comparing PLTR's Income Statement to OKTA and SNOW. Another aspect that people overlook is corporate expenses. PLTR, OKTA, and SNOW are growth companies but how they are generating the growth is important. Seeking Alpha / Steven Fiorillo Of the three companies, PLTR is the only one that's reducing its expenses across the board. Here is how everything lines up YoY:  Cost of Revenue  PLTR decrease -$13.1 million -3.72% SNOW increase $215.8 million 88.95% OKTA increase $176.8 million 81.21%   Selling General & Admin Expenses  PLTR decrease -$127.1 million -9.39% SNOW increase $352.9 million 53.84% OKTA increase $602.5 million 100.57%   R&D  PLTR decrease -$173.2 million -30.89% SNOW increase $229 million 96.26% OKTA increase $246.5 million 110.64% \n  Total Operating Expenses  PLTR decrease -$300.3 million -15.69% SNOW increase $582 million 65.14% OKTA increase $849 million 103.3%    PLTR's revenue increased by $449.2 million (41.11%) YoY while their cost of revenue decreased by -3.73%, and their operating expenses declined by -15.69%. SNOW grew its revenue by $627.3 million (105.96%) YoY, but this wasn't true growth, it was paid for. SNOW's cost of revenue increased by $215.8 million (88.95%), while their total operating expenses increased by $582 million (65.14%) for a total of $797.8 million. Their revenue growth was manufactured as it cost SNOW $797.8 million to gain $627.3 million in revenue growth. OKTA is in a similar boat as SNOW. OKTA's cost of revenue increased by $176.8 million (81.21%) YoY and their total operating expenses by $849 million (103.3%). OKTA spent an additional $1.03 billion to generate $464.8 million in additional revenue for 2021. Another interesting aspect is that PLTR grew its gross profit by $462.4 million (62.48%) YoY while decreasing its overall expenses. Of the three, PLTR grew its gross profit by the largest amount monetarily ($462.4 million), yet its revenue grew by the least YoY. By the numbers, PLTR has the best income statement of the three, trades at the lowest price to FCF multiple, and has decreasing expenses, yet Ark Invest sold off its position and is adding OKTA. It seems quite peculiar that SNOW and OKTA are trading at larger valuations. Ark Invest confirmed why they sold and the reason doesn't make sense Meet Kevin did an interview with Brett Winton, Director of Research at ARK Invest. In the interview, Mr. Winton touched on why Ark-Invest closed out their PLTR position after acquiring throughout the $20s.  Meet Kevin: Hey you know this one's coming. Palantir. What happened? Brett: Sure, I mean like I described as we're in risk-off periods we tend to consolidate the portfolios, so um, we had some concerns about their competitive positioning within the government space and we had better risk money elsewhere. Uh and so it's not you know, when you are making a decision to like consolidate the portfolio, it's not like those are an easy decision, but you look at kind of the risk return profile for all of your positions and you say what's lowest on the stack rank, relative to something else, which we think has comparable upside. Meet Kevin: That makes sense. So in risk off periods to make this simple, basically when prices are going down narrow into the ones maybe you have the most conviction in. Is that what you're saying?\n Brett: Exactly. Yeah, yeah. If we have a better edge somewhere else then we'll operate somewhere else.  Palantir I understand the premise around consolidation and believing there is more alpha to be created in a different position. That portion makes complete sense. What doesn't make sense is that Mr. Whiton specifically indicates that ARK Invest had concerns about PLTR's competitive positioning within the government space. While the government side revenue increased by 47.05% YoY ($287 million) from $610 million to $897 million, their customer count stayed stagnant at 90 customers YoY. I covered this in my article after PLTR delivered their 2021 earnings report. I don't see this being an issue, and now that war has broken out in Ukraine, I would be willing to speculate that PLTR will be very busy with demonstrations and request for proposals (RFPs). Germany has long resisted pressure from the United States and others to raise its defense spending. Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Sunday, 3/6/22, Germany would sharply increase its spending on defense to more than 2% of its economic output in one of a series of policy shifts prompted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Connect the dots, Alex Karp has given a series of interviews over the past two weeks from Germany. 2 weeks ago, Alex Karp spoke with Europe Strategy Lead Jan Hiesserich, in Germany about Palantir's relationship to Germany, what makes Palantir platforms unique, and how our products can create value in Germany and beyond. Just last week Alex Karp also spoke with Kai Beckmann, Member of the Executive Board of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, and CEO Electronics, in Germany to discuss cross-industry collaboration and the unique challenges of the semiconductor shortage. I think Ark Invest acted prematurely during an ongoing selloff that has decimated their fund's returns. Everybody loved Cathie Woods and her team on the way up, and now their funds have become the black sheep of the Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF world. Honestly, I disagree with liquidating the PLTR position, but their flagship fund Ark Innovation ETF (ARKK) is still up 149.73% over the past five years, so they deserve credit for getting a lot right and generating returns for long-term shareholders. When I went through their Q4 and 2021 earnings report I was surprised that their customer count stayed at 90, but I wasn't concerned. The more important slide to evaluate is their Government customer cohort growth table. Each year of contracts has grown its revenue base YoY. In 2018 PLTR's government revenue was $255 million, $224 million was from existing contracts prior to 2018, and $31 million or 12.16% was from new contracts secured in 2018. Now, look at the YoY growth. In 2019, the $224 million of existing contracts grew by $59 million (26%) YoY, while the $31 million of new contracts from 2018 almost doubled in value as they grew by $30 million (97%). In 2019 PLTR only added $2 million of new government contracts, which was less than 1% (0.58%) of the annual government revenue. Fast forward to 2020, PLTR's overall government revenue increased by $264 million or 76%. The individual tranches of government contracts experienced significant growth YoY. The $283 million of contracts prior to 2018 grow by another $33 million or 12%. The new contracts from 2018 that grew from $31 million to $61 million in 2019 grew by an additional $138 million or 226% in 2020 as this accounted for $199 million of the $610 million government revenue. The $2 million of new government contracts PLTR signed in 2019 grew by $16 million or 800% to $18 million in 2020. In 2020 PLTR added $77 million worth of new contracts on the government side. In 2021 the existing base of government contracts prior to 2018 grew by an additional $21 million or 7%. 2018's contracts grew by an additional $83 million or 42% to $282 million from $199 million in 2019. In 2019, PLTR secured only $2 million of new contracts, which grew into $18 million of revenue in 2020, and in 2021, this increased by an additional $25 million (139%). In 2020 PLTR signed $77 million in new contracts, which grew YoY by $150 million (195%). Palantir Not a single government agency left PLTRs ecosystem, and each tranche of contracts grew its revenue base YoY. I am not sure how one can be concerned with PLTRs competitive positioning within the government space when the government's ide revenue increased by 47.05% YoY. First, the questions were directed toward the commercial space since PLTRs revenue was primarily generated from the government sector. Now that PLTR has delivered on the commercial side, questions are being raised about not adding new government clients/agencies. 47.05% YoY revenue is 47.05% YoY revenue regardless if their customer count on the government side increases from 90 to 120 or if the 90 clients add services or enter into additional agreements. If revenue was decreasing, that would be a concern, but it's not. The government business segment is healthy, and the situation in Ukraine should benefit PLTR in 2022. I wish PLTR would increase its customer count and revenue due to different circumstances, but the war in Ukraine has made many of America's allies realize that defense spending is needed now more than ever, and PLTR will be in a position to pick up additional contracts. Why I am extremely bullish for Palantir's future Could you imagine setting up a demonstration with PLTR, providing them a dataset to analyze, and PLTR discovering a terrorist plot that wasn't on the radar in the demo? Peter Theil gave an interview on Bloomberg and was asked about this story. He acknowledged that a government agency provided data for a demo, this did occur, and the government agency had to reclassify all types of data as classified. When he was asked directly if he thought PLTR has helped thwart multiple terrorist plots, he responded with, \"I suspect that's true.\" PLTR builds software platforms and provides solutions years in advance before clients know they need that capability. There is a reason why PLTR is a government favorite, and that is unlikely to change. Regardless of what people may assume, government agencies need the very best software from the military down to SEC operations, and PLTR is a unique vendor willing to build exactly what the government needs. Palantir It's been a busy Q1, and I want to go over some of the partnerships that PLTR has established, leading to multiple vertices. In the beginning of January PLTR and Hyundai Heavy Industries formed a Data Joint Venture. This is a $25+ million deal for PLTR, which will allow the two entities to build a new big data platform for Hyundai Heavy Industries. Hyundai Heavy Industries is a $5 billion South Korean company that has grown into the world's leading heavy industries organization which has diversified from shipbuilding to offshore & engineering, Naval & Special Ships, and engine & machinery. Hyundai Heavy is a global entity with partnerships throughout the globe. Based on the agreement, Hyundai Heavy Industries and PLTR will jointly build a big data platform for the Group's key affiliates related to shipbuilding & offshore engineering, energy, and industrial machinery. Once the big data platform for each affiliate is built, the two parties plan to create a joint venture that specializes in developing and selling big data platform services. The big data platform will also be adopted by energy affiliates, such as Hyundai Oilbank. The other critical partnership is with Jacobs Engineering Group (J), which is a $16.53 billion company. J will leverage its existing O&M portfolio, as well as proprietary machine learning modules and wastewater process optimization tools to develop a dynamic management solution suite on PLTR's Foundry system. This will connect day-to-day site operations with AI to optimize power, chemical usage, and asset management. Like Hyundai Heavy Industries, J and PLTR are planning other joint technical and programmatic initiatives to serve U.S. federal government customers. J is the ideal partner for PLTR as they provide consulting, technical, scientific, and project delivery services for the government and private sectors in the United States, Europe, Canada, India, rest of Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, Mexico, the Middle East, and Africa. The company operates in two segments, Critical Mission Solutions, and People & Places Solutions. The Critical Mission Solutions segment provides cybersecurity, data analytics, systems, and software application integration and consulting enterprise and mission IT, engineering and design, nuclear, enterprise-level operations and maintenance, and other technical consulting solutions. The People & Places Solutions segment offers data analytics, artificial intelligence and automation, software development, digitally-driven consulting, planning and architecture, program management, and other technical consulting solutions. These are the clients and projects PLTR investors should become ecstatic about. Unlike straight contract revenue, PLTR is developing platforms with industry leaders who are already connected throughout their respective industries on the government and commercial side. These aren't just contracts for revenue, they are strategic partnerships that will lead to other business verticals. The proprietary platforms that PLTR will build with J and Hyundai Heavy will create opportunities for initial revenue through their joint ventures but put PLTR in a position to possibly provide other services throughout each of their respective business networks. This is exactly what we want PLTR to be doing, creating industry-specific platforms with commercial partners that can be sold to their clients and partners replicating what PLTR did with AirBus through Skywise. Everything comes back to net income and FCF. PLTR closed in 2021 with an FCF margin of 20.83%. Today, PLTR has a market cap of around $22.59 billion and trades at a 70.32x FCF multiple, which is low compared to similar companies. PLTR has always beat its estimates and in 2021, guided up for its end-of-year results. If PLTR only meets its estimates with a 30% revenue YoY increase and maintains its current FCF margin, then it will produce $917.31 million in FCF in 2025. At the same multiple as PLTR trades today, PLTR would have a $64.51 billion market cap. If PLTR's multiple compressed to 50x FCF, they would have a $45.87 billion market cap in 2025. This is assuming that PLTR only meets their internal expectations. I can see a scenario where PLTR replicates 2021 and over-delivers with 40% YoY growth on revenue. If this occurs, PLTR will generate $1.24 billion in FCF in 2025, and at today's multiple, its market cap would be $86.76 billion. Based on today's valuation and PLTR's numbers, there is no reason why PLTR can't generate 2-4x returns by the end of 2025, and I feel that could be conservative. I plan on holding PLTR throughout this decade, and if PLTR doesn't get acquired, they should have no problem reaching the $100 billion valuations well before 2030. Steven Fiorillo Conclusion I am extremely bullish on PLTR's future and use the volatility to add shares at valuations close to PLTR direct listing. This is a long-term investment for me, and I plan on continuing to add if PLTR goes lower and as it rebounds. PLTR is going to see increased spending on the government side due to geopolitical tensions and is forging terrific strategic partnerships. Shareholders should be excited that PLTR is building software platforms with companies like J, that can be sold throughout their global network. From a valuation standpoint, PLTR looks cheap compared to other software application companies and based on PLTRs internal growth metrics and today's valuation of price to FCF, PLTR looks like a multi-bagger in the coming years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":130,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"9000000000000562","authorId":"9000000000000562","name":"HilaryWilde","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a24bcc27dc29a6d8ea2018519aa88251","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"9000000000000562","authorIdStr":"9000000000000562"},"content":"So you don't think now is a good time to buy?","text":"So you don't think now is a good time to buy?","html":"So you don't think now is a good time to buy?"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9912102642,"gmtCreate":1664764791487,"gmtModify":1676537504628,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/OYY.SI\">$PROPNEX LIMITED(OYY.SI)$</a>First time witnessing a flush down in prices.

I would be lying if I said that this was not a challenging investment, but Alibaba is remarkably cheap right now. Furthermore, the ongoing concerns surrounding the company are overexaggerated. Moreover, the Chinese government is now taking market-friendly measures to stabilize markets and support stock prices. We could be looking at a tectonic shift in China, and Alibaba shares will likely get a substantial bid moving forward. Despite the recent monster 40% rebound, Alibaba remains a strong buy around the $100 level. Additionally, the company&#39;s share price should continue appreciating as we advance through 2022 and beyond and could reach $300 within the next three years.</p><p><b>Alibaba Skyrockets On Beijing News</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa856eb9a75ce4c55e67c3d28a956fd7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"676\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>BABA (StockCharts)</span></p><p>We just saw one of the most violent up moves in history. Alibaba soared by approximately $100 billion in market cap in a single day. China will provide additional support to the Chinese economy through monetary policy, and the government reaffirmed that it supports foreign IPOs. The report also stated that China supports listings overseas and will work with the SEC to resolve any issues.</p><p>Concerns over increased regulation, possible delisting fears, and other transitory concerns led Alibaba to unprecedented declines over the last year. The stock cratered by about 77% (peak to trough) from its recent highs, illustrating one of the most significant market cap declines. Recent selling became indiscriminate and panic-driven, likely leading to one of the best buying opportunities in Alibaba&#39;s history. The most striking thing is that nothing material changed about Alibaba&#39;s business. The company&#39;s growth slowed a bit more than expected, and it&#39;s going through a transitory margin compression phase. However, this is not something that warrants a 77% decline or anything even close, and Alibaba&#39;s stock remains exceptionally cheap.</p><p><b>Alibaba Back Then And Now</b></p><p>Back then (in 2015), when I first began buying Alibaba, its stock was around $80. In recent sessions, Alibaba&#39;s stock dipped below $80 for the first time in about six years. In 2015 Alibaba&#39;s revenues were $12.3 billion, and the company recorded approximately $131.6 billion in revenues in its trailing twelve months (&#34;TTM&#34;). Its gross profit was at about $8.4 billion then, and nearly $50 billion in its TTM. I think you get the picture here. Revenues and many profitability metrics have surged in the past six years, yet Alibaba&#39;s stock price was back at its post-IPO lows in recent days. I&#39;ve written many articles on Alibaba, I own the stock, and I continue to argue that Alibaba&#39;s stock price is unjustly low and has a strong probability of moving significantly higher in future years.</p><p><b>Alibaba&#39;s Stock Is Remarkably Cheap</b></p><p>How cheap is Alibaba, even after its unprecedented 40% move higher? Consensus EPS estimates are for approximately $10 in 2023, illustrating that at $100, the stock is only trading at ten times forward EPS estimates. If we look at Alibaba&#39;s revenue projections, we see that the company should still grow revenues by 10-15% in the coming years. Moreover, Alibaba has the potential to become more profitable in future years, suggesting that its EPS projections may be muted and lowballed. The company&#39;s growth dynamic, profitability potential, and low valuation illustrate that its stock remains exceptionally cheap and has a high probability of appreciating substantially in future years.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line: Not Selling A Single Share</b></p><p>I&#39;m not selling a single Alibaba share here. As I&#39;ve written many times, Alibaba and Chinese stocks, in general, went through a transitory phase where overly negative news flow put enormous pressure on stock prices. This problematic period lasted for over one year and caused stock prices, including Alibaba&#39;s, to decline to obscenely oversold and undervalued levels. Now that the negative news is behind us, we will likely see more emphasis on positive developments regarding Alibaba. The company does not face significant threats from the regulation, and the U.S. delisting fears are overblown. Moreover, Alibaba remains a dominant, market-leading e-commerce giant that should continue growing double-digit for several years. Furthermore, the company&#39;s stock is dirt cheap right now, and Alibaba&#39;s share price will likely appreciate considerably as the company advances in future years.</p><p><b>Here&#39;s what Alibaba&#39;s financials could look like as the company moves forward into 2025:</b></p><table><tbody><tr><td>Year</td><td>2022</td><td>2023</td><td>2024</td><td>2025</td></tr><tr><td>Revenues</td><td>$151B</td><td>$167B</td><td>$184B</td><td>$203B</td></tr><tr><td>Revenue growth</td><td>15.3%</td><td>10.6%</td><td>10.2%</td><td>10.3%</td></tr><tr><td>EPS</td><td>$10.25</td><td>$10.55</td><td>$13.12</td><td>$15.85</td></tr><tr><td>Forward P/E</td><td>12</td><td>15</td><td>18</td><td>20</td></tr><tr><td>Price</td><td>$127</td><td>$197</td><td>$285</td><td>$375</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Source: The Author</p><p>As we advance, Alibaba&#39;s revenue growth should continue to expand, and the company&#39;s profitability should continue improving. Moreover, the company&#39;s transitory negative news flow stage should continue to pass. Therefore, sentiment should strengthen, and Alibaba&#39;s P/E multiple should gradually expand. It is not uncommon for companies with similar growth and profitability dynamics to trade at 20-30 times EPS estimates or higher. Thus, Alibaba should not have a problem getting back up to a 20 P/E multiple in future years. As sentiment improves, its share price could appreciate considerably in the coming years, to my price target of $375 in 2025.</p><p><b>Risks To Consider</b></p><p>While I&#39;m bullish on Alibaba, various factors could occur that may derail my expectations for the company. For instance, the regulation could clamp down further on Alibaba and other Chinese tech giants. Moreover, U.S. regulators could decide to delist the company&#39;s ADRs. Increased competition could impact Alibaba&#39;s growth and profits. The company&#39;s growth could be worse than my current anticipation. Also, Alibaba&#39;s profitability could continue to struggle for various reasons. There are multiple risks to this investment, which is why shares are very cheap right now. In my view, Alibaba remains an elevated risk/high reward investment, and investors should carefully examine the risks before opening a position in Alibaba stock.</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>Alibaba: Why I'm Not Selling A Single Share</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\">\nAlibaba: Why I'm Not Selling A Single Share\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-20 10:03 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496224-alibaba-why-im-not-selling-single-share><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAlibaba has been a challenging investment over the last year, dropping by as much as 77% from its ATH.Despite increasing revenues by more than tenfold, its stock price dropped down to levels ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496224-alibaba-why-im-not-selling-single-share\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BABA":"阿里巴巴","09988":"阿里巴巴-W"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496224-alibaba-why-im-not-selling-single-share","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2220430742","content_text":"SummaryAlibaba has been a challenging investment over the last year, dropping by as much as 77% from its ATH.Despite increasing revenues by more than tenfold, its stock price dropped down to levels not seen since its early post-IPO days.However, things are likely to change in a big way for Alibaba investors.Much of the transitory detrimental factors are now behind the company, and more emphasis should go towards positive developments now.Alibaba's business remains solid, growth should resume, and the company will likely become more profitable in future years.Philiphotographer/iStock Unreleased via Getty ImagesI began investing in Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) in early 2015, shortly after the company IPOed in the U.S. Incidentally, I started buying the stock at a similar price point to Alibaba's recent low ($70-80). I would be lying if I said that this was not a challenging investment, but Alibaba is remarkably cheap right now. Furthermore, the ongoing concerns surrounding the company are overexaggerated. Moreover, the Chinese government is now taking market-friendly measures to stabilize markets and support stock prices. We could be looking at a tectonic shift in China, and Alibaba shares will likely get a substantial bid moving forward. Despite the recent monster 40% rebound, Alibaba remains a strong buy around the $100 level. Additionally, the company's share price should continue appreciating as we advance through 2022 and beyond and could reach $300 within the next three years.Alibaba Skyrockets On Beijing NewsBABA (StockCharts)We just saw one of the most violent up moves in history. Alibaba soared by approximately $100 billion in market cap in a single day. China will provide additional support to the Chinese economy through monetary policy, and the government reaffirmed that it supports foreign IPOs. The report also stated that China supports listings overseas and will work with the SEC to resolve any issues.Concerns over increased regulation, possible delisting fears, and other transitory concerns led Alibaba to unprecedented declines over the last year. The stock cratered by about 77% (peak to trough) from its recent highs, illustrating one of the most significant market cap declines. Recent selling became indiscriminate and panic-driven, likely leading to one of the best buying opportunities in Alibaba's history. The most striking thing is that nothing material changed about Alibaba's business. The company's growth slowed a bit more than expected, and it's going through a transitory margin compression phase. However, this is not something that warrants a 77% decline or anything even close, and Alibaba's stock remains exceptionally cheap.Alibaba Back Then And NowBack then (in 2015), when I first began buying Alibaba, its stock was around $80. In recent sessions, Alibaba's stock dipped below $80 for the first time in about six years. In 2015 Alibaba's revenues were $12.3 billion, and the company recorded approximately $131.6 billion in revenues in its trailing twelve months (\"TTM\"). Its gross profit was at about $8.4 billion then, and nearly $50 billion in its TTM. I think you get the picture here. Revenues and many profitability metrics have surged in the past six years, yet Alibaba's stock price was back at its post-IPO lows in recent days. I've written many articles on Alibaba, I own the stock, and I continue to argue that Alibaba's stock price is unjustly low and has a strong probability of moving significantly higher in future years.Alibaba's Stock Is Remarkably CheapHow cheap is Alibaba, even after its unprecedented 40% move higher? Consensus EPS estimates are for approximately $10 in 2023, illustrating that at $100, the stock is only trading at ten times forward EPS estimates. If we look at Alibaba's revenue projections, we see that the company should still grow revenues by 10-15% in the coming years. Moreover, Alibaba has the potential to become more profitable in future years, suggesting that its EPS projections may be muted and lowballed. The company's growth dynamic, profitability potential, and low valuation illustrate that its stock remains exceptionally cheap and has a high probability of appreciating substantially in future years.The Bottom Line: Not Selling A Single ShareI'm not selling a single Alibaba share here. As I've written many times, Alibaba and Chinese stocks, in general, went through a transitory phase where overly negative news flow put enormous pressure on stock prices. This problematic period lasted for over one year and caused stock prices, including Alibaba's, to decline to obscenely oversold and undervalued levels. Now that the negative news is behind us, we will likely see more emphasis on positive developments regarding Alibaba. The company does not face significant threats from the regulation, and the U.S. delisting fears are overblown. Moreover, Alibaba remains a dominant, market-leading e-commerce giant that should continue growing double-digit for several years. Furthermore, the company's stock is dirt cheap right now, and Alibaba's share price will likely appreciate considerably as the company advances in future years.Here's what Alibaba's financials could look like as the company moves forward into 2025:Year2022202320242025Revenues$151B$167B$184B$203BRevenue growth15.3%10.6%10.2%10.3%EPS$10.25$10.55$13.12$15.85Forward P/E12151820Price$127$197$285$375Source: The AuthorAs we advance, Alibaba's revenue growth should continue to expand, and the company's profitability should continue improving. Moreover, the company's transitory negative news flow stage should continue to pass. Therefore, sentiment should strengthen, and Alibaba's P/E multiple should gradually expand. It is not uncommon for companies with similar growth and profitability dynamics to trade at 20-30 times EPS estimates or higher. Thus, Alibaba should not have a problem getting back up to a 20 P/E multiple in future years. As sentiment improves, its share price could appreciate considerably in the coming years, to my price target of $375 in 2025.Risks To ConsiderWhile I'm bullish on Alibaba, various factors could occur that may derail my expectations for the company. For instance, the regulation could clamp down further on Alibaba and other Chinese tech giants. Moreover, U.S. regulators could decide to delist the company's ADRs. Increased competition could impact Alibaba's growth and profits. The company's growth could be worse than my current anticipation. Also, Alibaba's profitability could continue to struggle for various reasons. There are multiple risks to this investment, which is why shares are very cheap right now. In my view, Alibaba remains an elevated risk/high reward investment, and investors should carefully examine the risks before opening a position in Alibaba stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"9000000000000181","authorId":"9000000000000181","name":"blinky","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/baf2072a17d25a1d36d3d9998b259d99","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"9000000000000181","authorIdStr":"9000000000000181"},"content":"Have you studied stocks using DCF strategy?

The company’s trailing 12-month operating loss through September was 2.98 billion Chinese Yuan ($470 million). It’s expected to lose more in the fourth quarter. On March 23, NIO stock was down 31% year-to-date (YTD).</p><p>If you’ve followed Nio for more than a year, it shouldn’t surprise you that Nio will lose money in 2021. Analysts expect it to lose 1.03 Chinese Yuan (16 cents) per share in 2022. That’s $264 million (based on 1.65 billion American depositary shares), which means its losses have probably plateaued.</p><p>Investors should expect profits in 2023.</p><p>However, even though the business looks like its pathway to profitability is moving ahead, any negative surprises when it reports will likely knock its shares into the teens, where it traded in early March.</p><p>Despite the fact I believe Nio’s got an excellent future, I would wait until after Nio reports Q4 2021 results to buy Nio stock.</p><p>As I’ve said in the past, if a stock is destined for glory, buying after it’s jumped on positive news won’t be a bad thing in the long run.</p><p>Here’s why investors should keep their dry powder ready.</p><h2>Nio Will Soon Have Four Vehicles</h2><p>Deliveries for the company’s ET7 sedan are expected to start in China on March 28. That would be Nio’s fourth vehicle after the ES8, ES6, and EC6. In the first two months of 2022, Nio sold 2,615 ES8, 8,556 ES6, and 4,612 EC6. That’s 15,783 vehicles, 23.3% higher than a year earlier.</p><p>The ES8 is already on sale in Norway, and according to InsideEVs, it’s already launched its first battery swap station in the country. So it’s only a matter of time before Europe is crawling with Nio’s.</p><p>Thanks to the launch of the ET7, Credit Suisse analyst Bun Wang predicts that Nio will deliver 150,000 units in 2022, 64% higher than in 2021. The ET7 will have a big part to play in this growth.</p><p>Despite having four vehicles in play, investors continue to have a negative view of the company’s stock. NIO is down almost 40% year-to-date.</p><p>There are a couple of reasons for investor skepticism.</p><p>First, inflation has hit EV companies. The price of metals that go into EV batteries are up 60% in 2022. That’s going to delay Nio’s pathway to profitability. The second problem is that U.S. investors don’t want to buy Nio shares in New York if it’s only delisted down the road because of poor relations with China.</p><p>Nio can only play the cards it’s dealt. But, so far, it’s doing a darn good job.</p><h2>Analysts Really Like Nio Stock</h2><p>On March 21, according to Barron’s, Deutsche Bank (NYSE:DB) analyst Edison Yu had this to say about Nio in a note to clients leading up to its Q4 2021 earnings:</p><p>The ‘tide may finally be turning,’ wrote Yu. ‘While volumes have stagnated over the past few quarters due to operational bottlenecks, we think deliveries are on track to increase from [10,000 a month to 25,000] exiting the year which will shift the narrative away from supply constraints to product cycle’</p><p>The reality is that more than 90% of the analysts covering NIO stock rate it a “Buy.” The average for the S&amp;P 500 is just 58%. Further, the average target price for Nio is $50, more than double where it currently trades.</p><p>NIO stock has been trading so poorly in 2022 that Yu cut his price target by $20 for Nio to $50. His target price is about the average of the consensus estimate.</p><p>On March 10, InvestorPlace’s Mark Hake suggested Nio stock could be worth at least $33.72 based on its sales forecasts. Hake points out that NIO trades for just 3x the analyst estimate for 2022 sales, about one-third the price-to-sales multiple of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). As a result, Hake believes Nio should be valued at more than $50 billion.</p><p>I’m with my InvestorPlace colleague. Regardless of what analysts think, NIO stock is cheap right now.</p><h2>Nio’s Growth Versus Tesla</h2><p>I don’t think there’s any doubt that TSLA stock should be valued more than Nio.</p><p>However, Nio is expected to have sales of $5.61 billion in 2021 and $9.93 billion in 2022. Tesla had annualized sales of $9.93 billion sometime in fiscal 2017. In June 2017, TSLA stock was trading at $72.

The company’s trailing 12-month operating loss through September was 2.98 billion Chinese Yuan ($470 million). It’s expected to lose more in the fourth quarter. On March 23, NIO stock was down 31% year-to-date (YTD).If you’ve followed Nio for more than a year, it shouldn’t surprise you that Nio will lose money in 2021. Analysts expect it to lose 1.03 Chinese Yuan (16 cents) per share in 2022. That’s $264 million (based on 1.65 billion American depositary shares), which means its losses have probably plateaued.Investors should expect profits in 2023.However, even though the business looks like its pathway to profitability is moving ahead, any negative surprises when it reports will likely knock its shares into the teens, where it traded in early March.Despite the fact I believe Nio’s got an excellent future, I would wait until after Nio reports Q4 2021 results to buy Nio stock.As I’ve said in the past, if a stock is destined for glory, buying after it’s jumped on positive news won’t be a bad thing in the long run.Here’s why investors should keep their dry powder ready.Nio Will Soon Have Four VehiclesDeliveries for the company’s ET7 sedan are expected to start in China on March 28. That would be Nio’s fourth vehicle after the ES8, ES6, and EC6. In the first two months of 2022, Nio sold 2,615 ES8, 8,556 ES6, and 4,612 EC6. That’s 15,783 vehicles, 23.3% higher than a year earlier.The ES8 is already on sale in Norway, and according to InsideEVs, it’s already launched its first battery swap station in the country. So it’s only a matter of time before Europe is crawling with Nio’s.Thanks to the launch of the ET7, Credit Suisse analyst Bun Wang predicts that Nio will deliver 150,000 units in 2022, 64% higher than in 2021. The ET7 will have a big part to play in this growth.Despite having four vehicles in play, investors continue to have a negative view of the company’s stock. NIO is down almost 40% year-to-date.There are a couple of reasons for investor skepticism.First, inflation has hit EV companies. The price of metals that go into EV batteries are up 60% in 2022. That’s going to delay Nio’s pathway to profitability. The second problem is that U.S. investors don’t want to buy Nio shares in New York if it’s only delisted down the road because of poor relations with China.Nio can only play the cards it’s dealt. But, so far, it’s doing a darn good job.Analysts Really Like Nio StockOn March 21, according to Barron’s, Deutsche Bank (NYSE:DB) analyst Edison Yu had this to say about Nio in a note to clients leading up to its Q4 2021 earnings:The ‘tide may finally be turning,’ wrote Yu. ‘While volumes have stagnated over the past few quarters due to operational bottlenecks, we think deliveries are on track to increase from [10,000 a month to 25,000] exiting the year which will shift the narrative away from supply constraints to product cycle’The reality is that more than 90% of the analysts covering NIO stock rate it a “Buy.” The average for the S&P 500 is just 58%. Further, the average target price for Nio is $50, more than double where it currently trades.NIO stock has been trading so poorly in 2022 that Yu cut his price target by $20 for Nio to $50. His target price is about the average of the consensus estimate.On March 10, InvestorPlace’s Mark Hake suggested Nio stock could be worth at least $33.72 based on its sales forecasts. Hake points out that NIO trades for just 3x the analyst estimate for 2022 sales, about one-third the price-to-sales multiple of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). As a result, Hake believes Nio should be valued at more than $50 billion.I’m with my InvestorPlace colleague. Regardless of what analysts think, NIO stock is cheap right now.Nio’s Growth Versus TeslaI don’t think there’s any doubt that TSLA stock should be valued more than Nio.However, Nio is expected to have sales of $5.61 billion in 2021 and $9.93 billion in 2022. Tesla had annualized sales of $9.93 billion sometime in fiscal 2017. In June 2017, TSLA stock was trading at $72. Based on 169 million shares outstanding, Tesla had a market capitalization of $12.2 billion or 1.2x sales.Now, you might look at that and think that Nio’s overvalued. However, Tesla was losing a lot more money than Nio, not to mention EVs weren’t nearly as popular with consumers as they are today.Where This Leaves Nio StockWe’ve seen an uptick in EV interest since the start of the Russia-Ukraine war has driven oil prices through the roof. Americans are starting to realize that the move to electric probably isn’t such a bad idea after all.Companies like Nio ensure the world never has to rely on Russia to power our transportation. That’s a good thing.Despite my enthusiasm for NIO stock, I would wait for the results before buying. You never know how investors will react to its report. If it drops under $20, be sure to get some.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":509,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3479274775305388","authorId":"3479274775305388","name":"PSG2010","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7b0d9918c0ae3b5288d953af85e09579","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3479274775305388","authorIdStr":"3479274775305388"},"content":"Which company are you talking about?","text":"Which company are you talking about?","html":"Which company are you talking about?"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9901682066,"gmtCreate":1659188771255,"gmtModify":1676536269995,"author":{"id":"3583219343417269","authorId":"3583219343417269","name":"bwjx","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8caef76a71a3e44507b696f3580a8fd7","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583219343417269","authorIdStr":"3583219343417269"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"August to October is usually the most volatile months.

BABA investors have been hammered (again) over the past month as the bears returned to haunt Chinese stocks. The delisting fears are back!</p><p>In our June downgrade (Hold rating), we cautioned investors that we noted significant selling pressure at its critical resistance zone ($125) and urged them to avoid adding at those levels. Despite the sharp recovery from its May lows, we were concerned that the market could use the bullish sentiments in June to attract buyers into a trap before digesting those gains.</p><p>Consequently, since our June article, BABA has significantly underperformed the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY). As a result, it posted a return of -14.5%, against the SPY&#39;s 11.06% gain over the same period.</p><p>The market has leveraged the recent pessimism astutely over its delisting risks and China&#39;s increasingly tenuous GDP growth target to shake out weak hands. As a result, the market pessimism has presented investors with another opportunity to consider adding BABA again!</p><p>Therefore, we revise our rating on BABA from Hold to Buy. Notwithstanding, we caution investors that our price action analysis has yet to indicate any potential bear trap (indicating that the market decisively denied further selling downside) yet. Therefore, we are &#34;front-running&#34; the market in anticipation of robust buying support at the current levels to appear soon.</p><p><b>Delisting And GDP Growth Target Fears!</b></p><p>BABA slumped on July 29 as the US SEC added China&#39;s e-commerce behemoth to its delisting list, which stunned the market.</p><p>However, are such headwinds new? Absolutely not. So, we urge investors not to overreact to such a move by the market to shake out weak hands. BABA got a boost recently as the company highlighted that it could seek a primary listing in Hong Kong, quelling fears of its delisting in the US. Furthermore, a primary listing in Hong Kong would enable Alibaba to leverage investors in mainland China to invest in its stock.</p><p>Citi&#39;s (C) recent commentary was favorable of the move by Alibaba to seek a primary listing in Hong Kong.

As a result, BABA slumped.However, we urge investors not to overreact to such fears. Alibaba is seeking a primary listing in Hong Kong that would enable it to access capital and liquidity from Chinese investors.We also believe the recent statement by Politburo, which suggested that China could miss its 5.5% GDP growth target, could have unsettled some investors.Notwithstanding, we believe it sets up BABA very well, heading into its upcoming Q1 card on August 4.Therefore, we revise our rating from Hold to Buy. We urge investors to use the recent pessimism and add exposure, as its price action is leaning increasingly bullish.Robert WayThesisAlibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) is slated to report its FQ1'23 earnings release on August 4. BABA investors have been hammered (again) over the past month as the bears returned to haunt Chinese stocks. The delisting fears are back!In our June downgrade (Hold rating), we cautioned investors that we noted significant selling pressure at its critical resistance zone ($125) and urged them to avoid adding at those levels. Despite the sharp recovery from its May lows, we were concerned that the market could use the bullish sentiments in June to attract buyers into a trap before digesting those gains.Consequently, since our June article, BABA has significantly underperformed the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). As a result, it posted a return of -14.5%, against the SPY's 11.06% gain over the same period.The market has leveraged the recent pessimism astutely over its delisting risks and China's increasingly tenuous GDP growth target to shake out weak hands. As a result, the market pessimism has presented investors with another opportunity to consider adding BABA again!Therefore, we revise our rating on BABA from Hold to Buy. Notwithstanding, we caution investors that our price action analysis has yet to indicate any potential bear trap (indicating that the market decisively denied further selling downside) yet. Therefore, we are \"front-running\" the market in anticipation of robust buying support at the current levels to appear soon.Delisting And GDP Growth Target Fears!BABA slumped on July 29 as the US SEC added China's e-commerce behemoth to its delisting list, which stunned the market.However, are such headwinds new? Absolutely not. So, we urge investors not to overreact to such a move by the market to shake out weak hands. BABA got a boost recently as the company highlighted that it could seek a primary listing in Hong Kong, quelling fears of its delisting in the US. Furthermore, a primary listing in Hong Kong would enable Alibaba to leverage investors in mainland China to invest in its stock.Citi's (C) recent commentary was favorable of the move by Alibaba to seek a primary listing in Hong Kong. It emphasized (edited):We view the move as positive given the continued overhang on ADRs from the threat of delisting. A smooth transition to the new primary listing could pave the wave for other companies that already have dual listings. We view this as an important sentiment shift to attract more capital and liquidity to Alibaba and other China Internet stocks over time. - Barron'sNotwithstanding, KGI Asia (a leading Hong Kong brokerage firm) noted that the process could be more complex than what investors assessed.

Macroeconomic headwinds continue to build, including rampant inflation, slowing economic growth, geopolitical turmoil, and Covid-19 lockdowns in Asia.</p><p>We now have further uncertaintysurroundingthe stockmarket following the most recent interest rate hike. Animminent bear market is potentially on the horizon. As a result, investors are searching for alternative investment paths for diversification.</p><p>Growth names that were the darlings on<i>Wall Street</i>during the pandemic have not beenimmune to these challenges so far in the year. Even large-capitalization (cap) shares have come under pressure since January.</p><p>Year-to-date (YTD), the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>indexhas so far dropped over 13.5% year-to-date (YTD), while the tech-heavy <b>Nasdaq 100</b>has declined more than21.5% during the same period.</p><p>In the past century, we have had over 25bear marketson the Street. Most have lasted an average of less than one year. While it may be tempting to sell stocks in the portfolio to minimize losses, panic selling in a bear market often leads toloss of potential profits and even investment capital.</p><p>Instead, investors need to develop a calmer and at times opportunistic perspective toward bear markets. Let’s remember that some of the strongest days in the stock market usually follow right after some of the most devastating days.</p><p>A bear market can be easier to endure when you’re well-diversified and inthe marketfor the long term.</p><p>With that information, here are seven strategic sectors and asset classes to hide your money in a bear market.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><b>Blue Chip Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Healthcare Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Commodities Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Real Estate Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Utility Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Cryptocurrency</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Arts and NFTs</b></td></tr></tbody></table><h2><b>Bear Market: Blue Chip Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ee025174bc9711cf7cf054fdcfbe90d\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>“Blue chip stocks” are some of the precious gems of the stock market. As most<i>InvestorPlace.com</i>readers know, the term comes from poker chips where the blue chips are the most valuable ones of a three color chip set.</p><p>Blue chip companies are those that you have possibly known for decades. Market caps are typically in the order of hundreds of billions of dollars. The company history goes many decades or even a hundred years. Most of the 30 stocks in the <b>Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)</b> index belong to a blue chip company.</p><p>If you like dividends, then blue chips should be on your radar screen. They typically grow dividends regularly over decades.</p><p>Daily swings are less of an issue in the case of blue chips. Especially due to stable dividends, most investors are reluctant to sell them when the market declines.</p><p>Since most blue chips have healthy balance sheets and strong leadership, they tend to come out of hard economic times even stronger. In fact, many either buy-out or drive-out their weaker competitors.</p><p>But, when we have a bear market, shares of blue chips also decline. For instance, the DJIA has lost around 10% so far in 2022. Yet, this percentage is less than those in the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq 100.</p><p>Yet this recent drop in price has made many blue chips undervalued, creating a buying opportunity. If readers are not sure as to which specific blue chip stock to buy, they can also consider blue chip exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that hold a basket of stocks.</p><p>The following names of stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in blue chips:</p><ul><li><b>International Business Machines</b>(NYSE:<b><u>IBM</u></b>)</li><li><b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)</li><li><b>Walmart</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMT</u></b>)</li><li><b>T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TCHP</u></b>)</li><li><b>Invesco Dow Jones Industrial Average Dividend ETF</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DJD</u></b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Healthcare Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/24071cbf367a83a8c27823f7dcbde884\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>With growing concern about the possibility of a coming recession, many investors are turning to defensive healthcare stocks. The healthcare market tends to remain fairlyresistantto market downtowns. After all, as the past two years have shown, anyone can get sick or become injured at any time.</p><p>Globally, the healthcare industry continues to grow, spurred by an aging population. We are witnessing continuous development of new medicines and treatment protocols. Worldwide spending on medicine is expected to grow to an average of over10%of global GDP by the year 2030.</p><p>At the same time, Covid-19 vaccines are likely to soon find an entire new category of patients: children under 5. TheWashington Postrecently reported that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently considering an authorization request from<b>Moderna</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>) for use of its vaccine for young children. Pfizer is also expected to make a similar request soon.</p><p>Healthcare stocks or ETFs could thus provide a potential safe haven for wary investors. Here are a few picks:</p><ul><li><b>Abbvie</b>(NYSE:<b><u>ABBV</u></b>)</li><li><b>Bio-Rad Laboratories</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BIO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Merck</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MRK</u></b>)</li><li><b>Novo Nordisk</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NVO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Thermo Fisher Scientific</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TMO</u></b>)</li><li><b>iShares Global Healthcare ETF</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>IXJ</u></b>)</li><li><b>Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>XLV</u></b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Bear Market: Commodities</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2bddccd89eea651feaf3fc435d316654\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>Analysts are increasingly convinced that we are at the start of a long-term structural bull market in commodities. The World Bank’s <i>Commodity Markets Outlook</i>report suggests that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed the discourse on commodities.</p><p>Changing global patterns of production, trade, and consumption could keep commodity prices at historically elevated levels by the end of 2024.Moreover, such high commodity prices shouldadd to theinflationary pressures worldwide.</p><p>Energy prices are of particular interest to investors. Brent crude is currently trading ataround$100 per barrel. And theDow Jones Oil &amp; Gas Index has soaredmore than45% year-to-date (YTD).</p><p>Moreover, food commodities and fertilizers, which rely on natural gas as a production input, have also seen the largest price increases since 2008. For example, wheat prices are projected to increase by over 40%, reaching an all-time high in 2022.</p><p>Another group that gets attention as a potential hedge is precious metals. Gold and silver are the traditional metals of choice. Yet, copper, platinum, palladium, nickel, and zinc are also sought by investors in times of uncertainty in the markets.</p><p>Commodities not only offer an effective hedge against inflation, but they also help diversifyinvestors’portfolios due to their low correlation with stocks. Gold, for example, tends to beinversely correlatedto both stock market performance and the value of the greenback.</p><p>Silver has often provided a good investment during periods of high inflation. Its value isoften tiedto its utility in certain applications in technology as well as heavy industry.</p><p>The price ofgoldis up 2.1% over the past year, while the price ofsilveris down 18.2%. Meanwhile,pricesof platinum and palladium are also down year-over-year.</p><p>Investors can either buy individual stocks or invest in ETFs for commodities like energy, agriculture, and metals.</p><p>The following names deserve further due diligence:</p><ul><li><b>Archer Daniels Midland</b> (NYSE:<b>ADM</b>)</li><li><b>Barrick Gold</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GOLD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Franco-Nevada</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FNV</u></b>)</li><li><b>Newmont</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NEM</u></b>)</li><li><b>Nucor</b>(NYSE:<b>NUE</b>)</li><li><b>Rio Tinto</b> (NYSE:<b>RIO</b>)</li><li><b>BHP</b> (NYSE:<b>BHP</b>)</li><li><b>Freeport McMoRan</b> (NYSE:<b>FCX</b>)</li><li><b>SPDR S&amp;P Metals and Mining</b> (NYSEARCA:<b>XME</b>)</li><li><b>Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund</b>(NYSEARCA:<b>DBC</b>)</li><li><b>iShares GSCI Commodity Dynamic Roll Strategy ETF</b>(NASDAQ:<b>COMT</b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Real Estate Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40d6b0f5de2972f4461ff4ad61b490fd\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>Investing in real estate is another option to protect your savings against inflation or volatile markets. It also provides consistent income over a long period.</p><p>Participating in real estate investment comes in various ways. You can always buy your own private real estate, and possibly at a lower price during an economic slowdown. Of course, you’d need to have the necessary amount of money ready for the transaction. Or you could go to<i>Wall Street</i>to participate in the growth of real estate shares and for less capital.</p><p>Stock markets offer several options to invest in real estate. These can be shares of builders and developers or Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). The latter are companies that own, buy, sell or manage real estate. REITs usually hold a diversified or specialized portfolio. In the U.S., by law, they have to distribute about90%of their income as dividends to qualify as a REIT.</p><p>Retail investors can go for the shares of either individual developers or REITs. Or they can also explore ETFs that are focused on real estate.</p><p>The following stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in real estate:</p><ul><li><b>Avalonbay Communities</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AVB</u></b>)</li><li><b>Lennar</b>(NYSE:<b><u>LEN</u></b>)</li><li><b>VICI Properties</b>(NYSE:<b><u>VICI</u></b>)</li><li><b>Welltower</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WELL</u></b>)</li><li><b>Schwab US REIT ETF</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>SCHH</u></b>)</li><li><b>Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF Shares</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>VNQ</u></b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Bear Market: Utility Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fddf363cbccadd8f53d68acccf09f256\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>Utilities are often regarded as the defensive and less volatile portion of an investment portfolio.They include electricity, natural gas, clean water, and sewage services.

Macroeconomic headwinds continue to build, including rampant inflation, slowing economic growth, geopolitical turmoil, and Covid-19 lockdowns in Asia.We now have further uncertaintysurroundingthe stockmarket following the most recent interest rate hike. Animminent bear market is potentially on the horizon. As a result, investors are searching for alternative investment paths for diversification.Growth names that were the darlings onWall Streetduring the pandemic have not beenimmune to these challenges so far in the year. Even large-capitalization (cap) shares have come under pressure since January.Year-to-date (YTD), the S&P 500indexhas so far dropped over 13.5% year-to-date (YTD), while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100has declined more than21.5% during the same period.In the past century, we have had over 25bear marketson the Street. Most have lasted an average of less than one year. While it may be tempting to sell stocks in the portfolio to minimize losses, panic selling in a bear market often leads toloss of potential profits and even investment capital.Instead, investors need to develop a calmer and at times opportunistic perspective toward bear markets. Let’s remember that some of the strongest days in the stock market usually follow right after some of the most devastating days.A bear market can be easier to endure when you’re well-diversified and inthe marketfor the long term.With that information, here are seven strategic sectors and asset classes to hide your money in a bear market.Blue Chip StocksHealthcare StocksCommodities StocksReal Estate StocksUtility StocksCryptocurrencyArts and NFTsBear Market: Blue Chip Stocks“Blue chip stocks” are some of the precious gems of the stock market. As mostInvestorPlace.comreaders know, the term comes from poker chips where the blue chips are the most valuable ones of a three color chip set.Blue chip companies are those that you have possibly known for decades. Market caps are typically in the order of hundreds of billions of dollars. The company history goes many decades or even a hundred years. Most of the 30 stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) index belong to a blue chip company.If you like dividends, then blue chips should be on your radar screen. They typically grow dividends regularly over decades.Daily swings are less of an issue in the case of blue chips. Especially due to stable dividends, most investors are reluctant to sell them when the market declines.Since most blue chips have healthy balance sheets and strong leadership, they tend to come out of hard economic times even stronger. In fact, many either buy-out or drive-out their weaker competitors.But, when we have a bear market, shares of blue chips also decline. For instance, the DJIA has lost around 10% so far in 2022. Yet, this percentage is less than those in the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100.Yet this recent drop in price has made many blue chips undervalued, creating a buying opportunity. If readers are not sure as to which specific blue chip stock to buy, they can also consider blue chip exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that hold a basket of stocks.The following names of stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in blue chips:International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM)Pfizer(NYSE:PFE)Walmart(NYSE:WMT)T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF(NYSE:TCHP)Invesco Dow Jones Industrial Average Dividend ETF(NYSE:DJD)Healthcare StocksWith growing concern about the possibility of a coming recession, many investors are turning to defensive healthcare stocks. The healthcare market tends to remain fairlyresistantto market downtowns. After all, as the past two years have shown, anyone can get sick or become injured at any time.Globally, the healthcare industry continues to grow, spurred by an aging population. We are witnessing continuous development of new medicines and treatment protocols. Worldwide spending on medicine is expected to grow to an average of over10%of global GDP by the year 2030.At the same time, Covid-19 vaccines are likely to soon find an entire new category of patients: children under 5. TheWashington Postrecently reported that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently considering an authorization request fromModerna(NASDAQ:MRNA) for use of its vaccine for young children. Pfizer is also expected to make a similar request soon.Healthcare stocks or ETFs could thus provide a potential safe haven for wary investors. Here are a few picks:Abbvie(NYSE:ABBV)Bio-Rad Laboratories(NYSE:BIO)Merck(NYSE:MRK)Novo Nordisk(NYSE:NVO)Thermo Fisher Scientific(NYSE:TMO)iShares Global Healthcare ETF(NYSEARCA:IXJ)Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund(NYSEARCA:XLV)Bear Market: CommoditiesAnalysts are increasingly convinced that we are at the start of a long-term structural bull market in commodities. The World Bank’s Commodity Markets Outlookreport suggests that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed the discourse on commodities.Changing global patterns of production, trade, and consumption could keep commodity prices at historically elevated levels by the end of 2024.Moreover, such high commodity prices shouldadd to theinflationary pressures worldwide.Energy prices are of particular interest to investors. Brent crude is currently trading ataround$100 per barrel. And theDow Jones Oil & Gas Index has soaredmore than45% year-to-date (YTD).Moreover, food commodities and fertilizers, which rely on natural gas as a production input, have also seen the largest price increases since 2008. For example, wheat prices are projected to increase by over 40%, reaching an all-time high in 2022.Another group that gets attention as a potential hedge is precious metals. Gold and silver are the traditional metals of choice. Yet, copper, platinum, palladium, nickel, and zinc are also sought by investors in times of uncertainty in the markets.Commodities not only offer an effective hedge against inflation, but they also help diversifyinvestors’portfolios due to their low correlation with stocks. Gold, for example, tends to beinversely correlatedto both stock market performance and the value of the greenback.Silver has often provided a good investment during periods of high inflation. Its value isoften tiedto its utility in certain applications in technology as well as heavy industry.The price ofgoldis up 2.1% over the past year, while the price ofsilveris down 18.2%. Meanwhile,pricesof platinum and palladium are also down year-over-year.Investors can either buy individual stocks or invest in ETFs for commodities like energy, agriculture, and metals.The following names deserve further due diligence:Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM)Barrick Gold(NYSE:GOLD)Franco-Nevada(NYSE:FNV)Newmont(NYSE:NEM)Nucor(NYSE:NUE)Rio Tinto (NYSE:RIO)BHP (NYSE:BHP)Freeport McMoRan (NYSE:FCX)SPDR S&P Metals and Mining (NYSEARCA:XME)Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund(NYSEARCA:DBC)iShares GSCI Commodity Dynamic Roll Strategy ETF(NASDAQ:COMT)Real Estate StocksInvesting in real estate is another option to protect your savings against inflation or volatile markets. It also provides consistent income over a long period.Participating in real estate investment comes in various ways. You can always buy your own private real estate, and possibly at a lower price during an economic slowdown. Of course, you’d need to have the necessary amount of money ready for the transaction. Or you could go toWall Streetto participate in the growth of real estate shares and for less capital.Stock markets offer several options to invest in real estate. These can be shares of builders and developers or Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). The latter are companies that own, buy, sell or manage real estate. REITs usually hold a diversified or specialized portfolio. In the U.S., by law, they have to distribute about90%of their income as dividends to qualify as a REIT.Retail investors can go for the shares of either individual developers or REITs. Or they can also explore ETFs that are focused on real estate.The following stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in real estate:Avalonbay Communities(NYSE:AVB)Lennar(NYSE:LEN)VICI Properties(NYSE:VICI)Welltower(NYSE:WELL)Schwab US REIT ETF(NYSEARCA:SCHH)Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF Shares(NYSEARCA:VNQ)Bear Market: Utility StocksUtilities are often regarded as the defensive and less volatile portion of an investment portfolio.They include electricity, natural gas, clean water, and sewage services. Understandable, businesses and households rely on them regardless of economic cycles.Even during a recession, consumers will, for the most part, pay their bills for power and water.As most utilities are highly regulated, effectively preventing rivals from entering the market, utility stocks are usually associated with low risk andstableinvestments.The outlook for utilities has significantly improved over the past few years.
