the markets it serves, and its moat makes it likely that it will continue to hold the top spots in this space with its social networks. This, combined with excellent fundamentals, a clean balance sheet, a healthy growth outlook, and an inexpensive valuation should result in considerable upside potential over the coming four years, although there are some risk factors that investors should keep an eye on.</p>\n<p><b>FB Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Facebook, Inc. is, thanks to massive profitability and a dominating position in social media, one of the highest-valued companies in the United States. With shares trading at $335 each, Facebook is currently valued at around $940 billion, not far from the rare $1 trillion mark that has been breached by just a couple of stocks, such as Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a015682255c9f25d5c1f2d2e0fcfa22\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Shares of Facebook have climbed by 45% over the last year, which is very close to the broad market's 42% total return over the same time frame. In early 2021, shares had lagged the market, but more recently, Facebook's stock has experienced a sizeable uptick, and shares are trading very close to all-time highs today. Nevertheless, FB stock isn't really expensive, as shares are trading for 25x this year's expected earnings per share right now, which is pretty close to the S&P 500's (SPY) 2021 expected earnings multiple of 23x (according to YCharts). Facebook trades at a small premium compared to the broad market, but that could very well be justified, based on Facebook's quality, moat, and compelling growth rates. In fact, I believe that Facebook, at 25x forward earnings and a revenue growth rate of 20%+, is more attractive than many stocks that trade at 23x forward earnings and that do not grow by anything close to 20%+ a year.</p>\n<p>We can also take a look at Facebook's historic valuation ranges in order to gauge whether the current valuation makes sense:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/22f6c537828d175a57b12eb478d0af5e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Historically, Facebook was more expensive than it is today. To some degree, that makes sense, as relative revenue growth and earnings growth were higher a couple of years ago versus today. But still, at an earnings multiple that is clearly below the long-term median, Facebook can't be called expensive today -- even after an attractive 21% year-to-date gain for its shares.</p>\n<p><b>Is Facebook Stock Going To Go Up?</b></p>\n<p>In the short term, stock prices can be driven by psychology, market sentiment, etc. In the long run, however, fundamentals and underlying cash flows and earnings decide whether a stock is going up or down. In Facebook's case, we have seen times when the stock price moved in a different direction compared to the business. Take, for example, Facebook's share price decline in H2 of 2018, when shares dropped from $200+ to as low as $130. Was this based on declining revenue and weak profitability? The answer is a resounding no -- underlying growth remained highly attractive in that time frame:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b7d815ab9ee5cba2b3c0f4c42978cf1\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Revenues continued to climb, and so did FB's earnings per share. And yet, the market value of Facebook's shares dropped by more than one-third. This can be explained by weak sentiment, as the market worried about changes to the news feed on the Facebook platform, while other issues such as the Cambridge Analytica data collection scandal hurt sentiment as well. None of these issues, however, impacted Facebook's operations on a lasting basis, showcased by the fact that revenue and profits continued to grow as if there had been no scandal at all.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, not too much later, the market realized that none of these issues would doom Facebook and that the company was still executing very well. The stock recovered relatively quickly and started to climb to new highs, which resulted in steep gains for those that bought at the lows, while the market was fearful.</p>\n<p>The same should hold true in the future as well. There will always be a reason to worry and some scandal or issue, but the market tends to overreact to these things that usually do not impact Facebook meaningfully. This includes, for example, the ad boycotts of the past -- none of these ever led to a large revenue or profit decline.</p>\n<p>In the long run, Facebook's stock should thus continue to climb as long as the company is able to execute well and grow its business, and I believe that there is a good chance for that. This does, however, not mean that share prices will never experience declines. History has shown that those declines occur from time to time, but eventually, share prices will start to climb again in order to catch up with fundamentals.</p>\n<p>Facebook's revenue and earnings growth in future years will rest on several pillars. The first of these is user growth -- despite its already massive scale, Facebook manages to grow its user count very reliably, adding about 150 million new daily active users across its platforms over the last year alone:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/274940cc6f4303bd419072fb17155240\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"960\"><span>Source: FBpresentation</span></p>\n<p>We see that there has not been a single quarter in the recent past during which Facebook's user count declined. Since the world is growing more interconnected every year, and since more and more people get access to the internet in many markets around the globe, the same growth tailwinds should exist in the future, too, I believe. Since Facebookowns 4 out of the top 5 social networks,it will be a key beneficiary of global industry growth, although it should be noted that in some markets, primarily China, access to its platforms is restricted. More or less everywhere else, however, Facebook continues to experience user growth, including in North America.</p>\n<p>On top of that, Facebook can also grow its revenue by increasing monetization, i.e. by collecting more dollars per user. Marketing budgets around the globe are increasingly being shifted towards social media and online marketing, which allows for better targeting, faster ad campaigns, etc. Social media marketing budgets are expected to continue togrow at a rapid pace, and again, thanks to its dominance in this industry, Facebook should be one of the biggest winners from this trend. Last but not least, Facebook also is seeking to create new revenue sources, which includes monetizing WhatsApp, e.g.by integrating payment options.</p>\n<p>Facebook also continues to spend heavily on R&D ($19.6 billion over the last four quarters according to YCharts), which includes hardware gadgets such as smartwatches, and AR devices. Augmented reality and virtual reality don't drive revenue growth in the near term, but these projects could be long-term drivers of Facebook's success during the second half of the 2020s if the company's projects come to fruition.</p>\n<p>Facebook's earnings per share growth will also be positively impacted by share buybacks. Thanks to strong free cash flows and a very clean balance sheet, which holds a $65 billion net cash position according tothe most recent 10-Q filing, Facebook can easily spend dozens of billions of dollars on repurchasing its own shares without getting into financial troubles. Over the years, these buybacks should grow into a meaningful factor for the company's ongoing EPS growth story.</p>\n<p>With all these growth factors in place, it is not really surprising to see that the analyst community, overall, is relatively bullish on Facebook's long-term outlook:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fc74d571edba4272843b67a6e5fc097\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>EPS is forecasted to grow by 15% in 2022, by 17% in 2023, and by 21% per year in the long run. Even if these estimates are too bullish and Facebook achieves just two-thirds of what analysts are forecasting right now, Facebook would still deliver highly attractive EPS growth well in the double-digits over the coming years.</p>\n<p><b>Facebook Stock Forecast For 2025</b></p>\n<p>Based on Facebook's expected growth, I believe that there is considerable upside for shares over the next four years. If Facebook hits EPS of $13.10 this year, and grow its EPS by 14% a year through 2025, which would be significantly less than the past growth rate and significantly less than the current consensus, thus this is a rather conservative estimate, then FB's EPS in 2025 would be $22.10 in 2025.</p>\n<p>Facebook currently trades at 25x earnings, and I do not think this is a too-high multiple at all. But let's nevertheless assume that there will be some multiple contraction over the next four years in order to be conservative. If Facebook trades at 22x its EPS in 2025, which would be significantly less than the long-term median earnings multiple FB has traded at in the past, then we get to a share price target of $486 in 2025. Rounding this to $490, we get to an expected upside of around 45% from the current price over the next 4.5 years, which equates to a 9% annual return. Even in this rather conservative scenario, shares should thus generate healthy returns over the coming years, which tells me that FB is still attractive today -- even though shares were, of course, even more attractive at $250 earlier this year.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>Facebook controls four out of the top five social networks, which gives it an incredible moat thanks to network effects. Most consumers naturally flock to the largest platforms, because that is where all their friends and family members are. Facebook should be able to grow its revenue and its profits materially in the future, even though growth will eventually slow down from what we have seen in the past -- no company can grow at 50% a year forever.</p>\n<p>No investment is without risk, and there are some risks that investors should consider here as well. FB is highly dependent on key personnel such as CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and due to its dominance in the social media industry, FB is a potential target of anti-trust legislation. So far, even though there have been a couple of senate hearings where Mark Zuckerberg and others were questioned, politicians have not really moved against the company, and I do not expect this to happen in the foreseeable future, either. This is still a potential risk that investors should keep in mind.</p>\n<p>Overall, Facebook has the ability to generate attractive returns over the coming years, which is why I continue to happily hold my shares. FB will likely experience some share price ups and downs from time to time, as it did in the past, but ultimately, the company's strong fundamentals, healthy growth, and shareholder return program should lead to gains for those that invest with a long-term mindset.</p>","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>Facebook Stock Forecast For 2025: What Is In Store?</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\">\nFacebook Stock Forecast For 2025: What Is In Store?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-16 14:10 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434920-facebook-stock-forecast-2025><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nFacebook is a dominant company in its industry, has a great moat, and benefits from macro tailwinds such as digitalization.\nUser growth, increased monetization of its platforms, and share ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434920-facebook-stock-forecast-2025\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434920-facebook-stock-forecast-2025","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1172455870","content_text":"Summary\n\nFacebook is a dominant company in its industry, has a great moat, and benefits from macro tailwinds such as digitalization.\nUser growth, increased monetization of its platforms, and share buybacks should result in ample EPS growth over the coming years.\nEven when we use rather conservative assumptions, the upside potential for FB is quite meaningful, which is why I deem the stock attractive.\n\nJuSun/iStock via Getty Images\nArticle Thesis\nFacebook (FB) is a dominant social media company in the markets it serves, and its moat makes it likely that it will continue to hold the top spots in this space with its social networks.

Thanks to strong free cash flows and a very clean balance sheet, which holds a $65 billion net cash position according tothe most recent 10-Q filing, Facebook can easily spend dozens of billions of dollars on repurchasing its own shares without getting into financial troubles. Over the years, these buybacks should grow into a meaningful factor for the company's ongoing EPS growth story.\nWith all these growth factors in place, it is not really surprising to see that the analyst community, overall, is relatively bullish on Facebook's long-term outlook:\nData by YCharts\nEPS is forecasted to grow by 15% in 2022, by 17% in 2023, and by 21% per year in the long run. Even if these estimates are too bullish and Facebook achieves just two-thirds of what analysts are forecasting right now, Facebook would still deliver highly attractive EPS growth well in the double-digits over the coming years.\nFacebook Stock Forecast For 2025\nBased on Facebook's expected growth, I believe that there is considerable upside for shares over the next four years. If Facebook hits EPS of $13.10 this year, and grow its EPS by 14% a year through 2025, which would be significantly less than the past growth rate and significantly less than the current consensus, thus this is a rather conservative estimate, then FB's EPS in 2025 would be $22.10 in 2025.\nFacebook currently trades at 25x earnings, and I do not think this is a too-high multiple at all. But let's nevertheless assume that there will be some multiple contraction over the next four years in order to be conservative. If Facebook trades at 22x its EPS in 2025, which would be significantly less than the long-term median earnings multiple FB has traded at in the past, then we get to a share price target of $486 in 2025. Rounding this to $490, we get to an expected upside of around 45% from the current price over the next 4.5 years, which equates to a 9% annual return. Even in this rather conservative scenario, shares should thus generate healthy returns over the coming years, which tells me that FB is still attractive today -- even though shares were, of course, even more attractive at $250 earlier this year.\nTakeaway\nFacebook controls four out of the top five social networks, which gives it an incredible moat thanks to network effects. Most consumers naturally flock to the largest platforms, because that is where all their friends and family members are. Facebook should be able to grow its revenue and its profits materially in the future, even though growth will eventually slow down from what we have seen in the past -- no company can grow at 50% a year forever.\nNo investment is without risk, and there are some risks that investors should consider here as well. FB is highly dependent on key personnel such as CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and due to its dominance in the social media industry, FB is a potential target of anti-trust legislation. So far, even though there have been a couple of senate hearings where Mark Zuckerberg and others were questioned, politicians have not really moved against the company, and I do not expect this to happen in the foreseeable future, either. This is still a potential risk that investors should keep in mind.\nOverall, Facebook has the ability to generate attractive returns over the coming years, which is why I continue to happily hold my shares. FB will likely experience some share price ups and downs from time to time, as it did in the past, but ultimately, the company's strong fundamentals, healthy growth, and shareholder return program should lead to gains for those that invest with a long-term mindset.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169550277,"gmtCreate":1623844345399,"gmtModify":1703821128691,"author":{"id":"3583270398535501","authorId":"3583270398535501","name":"xdfuuuu","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0df34a03154a6f590741f05690c44546","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583270398535501","authorIdStr":"3583270398535501"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sq!!","listText":"Sq!!","text":"Sq!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169550277","repostId":"1178463933","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169528715,"gmtCreate":1623844098237,"gmtModify":1703821120659,"author":{"id":"3583270398535501","authorId":"3583270398535501","name":"xdfuuuu","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0df34a03154a6f590741f05690c44546","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583270398535501","authorIdStr":"3583270398535501"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buybuy","listText":"Buybuy","text":"Buybuy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169528715","repostId":"1166103542","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166103542","pubTimestamp":1623835778,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1166103542?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 17:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nio ET7 Will Be Equipped With 'High-Performance' LiDAR, Says Supplier","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166103542","media":"benzinga","summary":"Nio Inc’s LiDAR supplier Innovusion said on Wednesday it will equip the electric vehicle maker’s ET7","content":"<p><b>Nio Inc’s</b> LiDAR supplier Innovusion said on Wednesday it will equip the electric vehicle maker’s ET7 sedan with a \"high-performance product\" that can detect up to 500 meters, cnEV postreported.</p>\n<p><b>What Happened:</b>Bao Junwei, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Innovusion said its LiDAR technology works on the L3 and L4 autonomous driving and complements the L2 autonomous driving.</p>\n<p>Nio is expected to begin deliveries of its premium electric sedan ET7 in the first quarter of next year.

This, combined with excellent fundamentals, a clean balance sheet, a healthy growth outlook, and an inexpensive valuation should result in considerable upside potential over the coming four years, although there are some risk factors that investors should keep an eye on.</p>\n<p><b>FB Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Facebook, Inc. is, thanks to massive profitability and a dominating position in social media, one of the highest-valued companies in the United States. With shares trading at $335 each, Facebook is currently valued at around $940 billion, not far from the rare $1 trillion mark that has been breached by just a couple of stocks, such as Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a015682255c9f25d5c1f2d2e0fcfa22\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Shares of Facebook have climbed by 45% over the last year, which is very close to the broad market's 42% total return over the same time frame. In early 2021, shares had lagged the market, but more recently, Facebook's stock has experienced a sizeable uptick, and shares are trading very close to all-time highs today. Nevertheless, FB stock isn't really expensive, as shares are trading for 25x this year's expected earnings per share right now, which is pretty close to the S&P 500's (SPY) 2021 expected earnings multiple of 23x (according to YCharts). Facebook trades at a small premium compared to the broad market, but that could very well be justified, based on Facebook's quality, moat, and compelling growth rates. In fact, I believe that Facebook, at 25x forward earnings and a revenue growth rate of 20%+, is more attractive than many stocks that trade at 23x forward earnings and that do not grow by anything close to 20%+ a year.</p>\n<p>We can also take a look at Facebook's historic valuation ranges in order to gauge whether the current valuation makes sense:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/22f6c537828d175a57b12eb478d0af5e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Historically, Facebook was more expensive than it is today. To some degree, that makes sense, as relative revenue growth and earnings growth were higher a couple of years ago versus today. But still, at an earnings multiple that is clearly below the long-term median, Facebook can't be called expensive today -- even after an attractive 21% year-to-date gain for its shares.</p>\n<p><b>Is Facebook Stock Going To Go Up?</b></p>\n<p>In the short term, stock prices can be driven by psychology, market sentiment, etc. In the long run, however, fundamentals and underlying cash flows and earnings decide whether a stock is going up or down. In Facebook's case, we have seen times when the stock price moved in a different direction compared to the business. Take, for example, Facebook's share price decline in H2 of 2018, when shares dropped from $200+ to as low as $130. Was this based on declining revenue and weak profitability? The answer is a resounding no -- underlying growth remained highly attractive in that time frame:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b7d815ab9ee5cba2b3c0f4c42978cf1\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Revenues continued to climb, and so did FB's earnings per share. And yet, the market value of Facebook's shares dropped by more than one-third. This can be explained by weak sentiment, as the market worried about changes to the news feed on the Facebook platform, while other issues such as the Cambridge Analytica data collection scandal hurt sentiment as well. None of these issues, however, impacted Facebook's operations on a lasting basis, showcased by the fact that revenue and profits continued to grow as if there had been no scandal at all.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, not too much later, the market realized that none of these issues would doom Facebook and that the company was still executing very well. The stock recovered relatively quickly and started to climb to new highs, which resulted in steep gains for those that bought at the lows, while the market was fearful.</p>\n<p>The same should hold true in the future as well. There will always be a reason to worry and some scandal or issue, but the market tends to overreact to these things that usually do not impact Facebook meaningfully. This includes, for example, the ad boycotts of the past -- none of these ever led to a large revenue or profit decline.</p>\n<p>In the long run, Facebook's stock should thus continue to climb as long as the company is able to execute well and grow its business, and I believe that there is a good chance for that. This does, however, not mean that share prices will never experience declines. History has shown that those declines occur from time to time, but eventually, share prices will start to climb again in order to catch up with fundamentals.</p>\n<p>Facebook's revenue and earnings growth in future years will rest on several pillars. The first of these is user growth -- despite its already massive scale, Facebook manages to grow its user count very reliably, adding about 150 million new daily active users across its platforms over the last year alone:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/274940cc6f4303bd419072fb17155240\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"960\"><span>Source: FBpresentation</span></p>\n<p>We see that there has not been a single quarter in the recent past during which Facebook's user count declined. Since the world is growing more interconnected every year, and since more and more people get access to the internet in many markets around the globe, the same growth tailwinds should exist in the future, too, I believe. Since Facebookowns 4 out of the top 5 social networks,it will be a key beneficiary of global industry growth, although it should be noted that in some markets, primarily China, access to its platforms is restricted. More or less everywhere else, however, Facebook continues to experience user growth, including in North America.</p>\n<p>On top of that, Facebook can also grow its revenue by increasing monetization, i.e. by collecting more dollars per user. Marketing budgets around the globe are increasingly being shifted towards social media and online marketing, which allows for better targeting, faster ad campaigns, etc. Social media marketing budgets are expected to continue togrow at a rapid pace, and again, thanks to its dominance in this industry, Facebook should be one of the biggest winners from this trend. Last but not least, Facebook also is seeking to create new revenue sources, which includes monetizing WhatsApp, e.g.by integrating payment options.</p>\n<p>Facebook also continues to spend heavily on R&D ($19.6 billion over the last four quarters according to YCharts), which includes hardware gadgets such as smartwatches, and AR devices. Augmented reality and virtual reality don't drive revenue growth in the near term, but these projects could be long-term drivers of Facebook's success during the second half of the 2020s if the company's projects come to fruition.</p>\n<p>Facebook's earnings per share growth will also be positively impacted by share buybacks. Thanks to strong free cash flows and a very clean balance sheet, which holds a $65 billion net cash position according tothe most recent 10-Q filing, Facebook can easily spend dozens of billions of dollars on repurchasing its own shares without getting into financial troubles. Over the years, these buybacks should grow into a meaningful factor for the company's ongoing EPS growth story.</p>\n<p>With all these growth factors in place, it is not really surprising to see that the analyst community, overall, is relatively bullish on Facebook's long-term outlook:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fc74d571edba4272843b67a6e5fc097\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>EPS is forecasted to grow by 15% in 2022, by 17% in 2023, and by 21% per year in the long run. Even if these estimates are too bullish and Facebook achieves just two-thirds of what analysts are forecasting right now, Facebook would still deliver highly attractive EPS growth well in the double-digits over the coming years.</p>\n<p><b>Facebook Stock Forecast For 2025</b></p>\n<p>Based on Facebook's expected growth, I believe that there is considerable upside for shares over the next four years. If Facebook hits EPS of $13.10 this year, and grow its EPS by 14% a year through 2025, which would be significantly less than the past growth rate and significantly less than the current consensus, thus this is a rather conservative estimate, then FB's EPS in 2025 would be $22.10 in 2025.</p>\n<p>Facebook currently trades at 25x earnings, and I do not think this is a too-high multiple at all. But let's nevertheless assume that there will be some multiple contraction over the next four years in order to be conservative. If Facebook trades at 22x its EPS in 2025, which would be significantly less than the long-term median earnings multiple FB has traded at in the past, then we get to a share price target of $486 in 2025. Rounding this to $490, we get to an expected upside of around 45% from the current price over the next 4.5 years, which equates to a 9% annual return. Even in this rather conservative scenario, shares should thus generate healthy returns over the coming years, which tells me that FB is still attractive today -- even though shares were, of course, even more attractive at $250 earlier this year.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>Facebook controls four out of the top five social networks, which gives it an incredible moat thanks to network effects. Most consumers naturally flock to the largest platforms, because that is where all their friends and family members are. Facebook should be able to grow its revenue and its profits materially in the future, even though growth will eventually slow down from what we have seen in the past -- no company can grow at 50% a year forever.</p>\n<p>No investment is without risk, and there are some risks that investors should consider here as well.

This, combined with excellent fundamentals, a clean balance sheet, a healthy growth outlook, and an inexpensive valuation should result in considerable upside potential over the coming four years, although there are some risk factors that investors should keep an eye on.\nFB Stock Price\nFacebook, Inc. is, thanks to massive profitability and a dominating position in social media, one of the highest-valued companies in the United States. With shares trading at $335 each, Facebook is currently valued at around $940 billion, not far from the rare $1 trillion mark that has been breached by just a couple of stocks, such as Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN).\nData by YCharts\nShares of Facebook have climbed by 45% over the last year, which is very close to the broad market's 42% total return over the same time frame. In early 2021, shares had lagged the market, but more recently, Facebook's stock has experienced a sizeable uptick, and shares are trading very close to all-time highs today. Nevertheless, FB stock isn't really expensive, as shares are trading for 25x this year's expected earnings per share right now, which is pretty close to the S&P 500's (SPY) 2021 expected earnings multiple of 23x (according to YCharts). Facebook trades at a small premium compared to the broad market, but that could very well be justified, based on Facebook's quality, moat, and compelling growth rates. In fact, I believe that Facebook, at 25x forward earnings and a revenue growth rate of 20%+, is more attractive than many stocks that trade at 23x forward earnings and that do not grow by anything close to 20%+ a year.\nWe can also take a look at Facebook's historic valuation ranges in order to gauge whether the current valuation makes sense:\nData by YCharts\nHistorically, Facebook was more expensive than it is today. To some degree, that makes sense, as relative revenue growth and earnings growth were higher a couple of years ago versus today. But still, at an earnings multiple that is clearly below the long-term median, Facebook can't be called expensive today -- even after an attractive 21% year-to-date gain for its shares.\nIs Facebook Stock Going To Go Up?\nIn the short term, stock prices can be driven by psychology, market sentiment, etc. In the long run, however, fundamentals and underlying cash flows and earnings decide whether a stock is going up or down. In Facebook's case, we have seen times when the stock price moved in a different direction compared to the business. Take, for example, Facebook's share price decline in H2 of 2018, when shares dropped from $200+ to as low as $130. Was this based on declining revenue and weak profitability? The answer is a resounding no -- underlying growth remained highly attractive in that time frame:\nData by YCharts\nRevenues continued to climb, and so did FB's earnings per share. And yet, the market value of Facebook's shares dropped by more than one-third. This can be explained by weak sentiment, as the market worried about changes to the news feed on the Facebook platform, while other issues such as the Cambridge Analytica data collection scandal hurt sentiment as well. None of these issues, however, impacted Facebook's operations on a lasting basis, showcased by the fact that revenue and profits continued to grow as if there had been no scandal at all.\nNot surprisingly, not too much later, the market realized that none of these issues would doom Facebook and that the company was still executing very well. The stock recovered relatively quickly and started to climb to new highs, which resulted in steep gains for those that bought at the lows, while the market was fearful.\nThe same should hold true in the future as well. There will always be a reason to worry and some scandal or issue, but the market tends to overreact to these things that usually do not impact Facebook meaningfully. This includes, for example, the ad boycotts of the past -- none of these ever led to a large revenue or profit decline.\nIn the long run, Facebook's stock should thus continue to climb as long as the company is able to execute well and grow its business, and I believe that there is a good chance for that. This does, however, not mean that share prices will never experience declines. History has shown that those declines occur from time to time, but eventually, share prices will start to climb again in order to catch up with fundamentals.\nFacebook's revenue and earnings growth in future years will rest on several pillars. The first of these is user growth -- despite its already massive scale, Facebook manages to grow its user count very reliably, adding about 150 million new daily active users across its platforms over the last year alone:\nSource: FBpresentation\nWe see that there has not been a single quarter in the recent past during which Facebook's user count declined. Since the world is growing more interconnected every year, and since more and more people get access to the internet in many markets around the globe, the same growth tailwinds should exist in the future, too, I believe. Since Facebookowns 4 out of the top 5 social networks,it will be a key beneficiary of global industry growth, although it should be noted that in some markets, primarily China, access to its platforms is restricted. More or less everywhere else, however, Facebook continues to experience user growth, including in North America.\nOn top of that, Facebook can also grow its revenue by increasing monetization, i.e. by collecting more dollars per user. Marketing budgets around the globe are increasingly being shifted towards social media and online marketing, which allows for better targeting, faster ad campaigns, etc. Social media marketing budgets are expected to continue togrow at a rapid pace, and again, thanks to its dominance in this industry, Facebook should be one of the biggest winners from this trend. Last but not least, Facebook also is seeking to create new revenue sources, which includes monetizing WhatsApp, e.g.by integrating payment options.\nFacebook also continues to spend heavily on R&D ($19.6 billion over the last four quarters according to YCharts), which includes hardware gadgets such as smartwatches, and AR devices. Augmented reality and virtual reality don't drive revenue growth in the near term, but these projects could be long-term drivers of Facebook's success during the second half of the 2020s if the company's projects come to fruition.\nFacebook's earnings per share growth will also be positively impacted by share buybacks. Thanks to strong free cash flows and a very clean balance sheet, which holds a $65 billion net cash position according tothe most recent 10-Q filing, Facebook can easily spend dozens of billions of dollars on repurchasing its own shares without getting into financial troubles. Over the years, these buybacks should grow into a meaningful factor for the company's ongoing EPS growth story.\nWith all these growth factors in place, it is not really surprising to see that the analyst community, overall, is relatively bullish on Facebook's long-term outlook:\nData by YCharts\nEPS is forecasted to grow by 15% in 2022, by 17% in 2023, and by 21% per year in the long run. Even if these estimates are too bullish and Facebook achieves just two-thirds of what analysts are forecasting right now, Facebook would still deliver highly attractive EPS growth well in the double-digits over the coming years.\nFacebook Stock Forecast For 2025\nBased on Facebook's expected growth, I believe that there is considerable upside for shares over the next four years. If Facebook hits EPS of $13.10 this year, and grow its EPS by 14% a year through 2025, which would be significantly less than the past growth rate and significantly less than the current consensus, thus this is a rather conservative estimate, then FB's EPS in 2025 would be $22.10 in 2025.\nFacebook currently trades at 25x earnings, and I do not think this is a too-high multiple at all. But let's nevertheless assume that there will be some multiple contraction over the next four years in order to be conservative. If Facebook trades at 22x its EPS in 2025, which would be significantly less than the long-term median earnings multiple FB has traded at in the past, then we get to a share price target of $486 in 2025. Rounding this to $490, we get to an expected upside of around 45% from the current price over the next 4.5 years, which equates to a 9% annual return. Even in this rather conservative scenario, shares should thus generate healthy returns over the coming years, which tells me that FB is still attractive today -- even though shares were, of course, even more attractive at $250 earlier this year.\nTakeaway\nFacebook controls four out of the top five social networks, which gives it an incredible moat thanks to network effects. Most consumers naturally flock to the largest platforms, because that is where all their friends and family members are. Facebook should be able to grow its revenue and its profits materially in the future, even though growth will eventually slow down from what we have seen in the past -- no company can grow at 50% a year forever.\nNo investment is without risk, and there are some risks that investors should consider here as well. FB is highly dependent on key personnel such as CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and due to its dominance in the social media industry, FB is a potential target of anti-trust legislation. So far, even though there have been a couple of senate hearings where Mark Zuckerberg and others were questioned, politicians have not really moved against the company, and I do not expect this to happen in the foreseeable future, either. This is still a potential risk that investors should keep in mind.\nOverall, Facebook has the ability to generate attractive returns over the coming years, which is why I continue to happily hold my shares. FB will likely experience some share price ups and downs from time to time, as it did in the past, but ultimately, the company's strong fundamentals, healthy growth, and shareholder return program should lead to gains for those that invest with a long-term mindset.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169550277,"gmtCreate":1623844345399,"gmtModify":1703821128691,"author":{"id":"3583270398535501","authorId":"3583270398535501","name":"xdfuuuu","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0df34a03154a6f590741f05690c44546","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583270398535501","idStr":"3583270398535501"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sq!!","listText":"Sq!!","text":"Sq!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169550277","repostId":"1178463933","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1178463933","pubTimestamp":1623824661,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1178463933?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 14:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Best Growth Stocks to Buy in June","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1178463933","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Growth stocks have taken an absolute beating.

Let's look at a handful of the best to buy this month.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7d5e291cb00ad126c12d7ed57c26719\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"576\"><span>Source: Shutterstock</span></p>\n<p></p>\n<p>It’s no secret that growth stocks have taken an absolute beating over the last couple months. In fact, even though there’s been a decent bounce from the recent low, this group has been engulfed in a brutal bear market. As a result, it’s harder to find growth stocks to buy.</p>\n<p>That’s even as other indices have hit new all-time highs, and many are sitting just below those highs. The crosscurrents we’ve experienced in the stock market via sector and asset rotation have been pretty wild over the past few months.</p>\n<p>However, these are the types of rotations we should be<i>running toward</i>— not away from.</p>\n<p>Obviously we don’t want to be buying low-quality stocks that have been obliterated. With that being said, many high-quality names were thrown out with these losing stocks. As a result, they’ve suffered declines of 30% to 50% in the past several months.</p>\n<p>I am a huge advocate of scooping up growth stocks on these types of declines. So let’s look at seven of them now.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Roku</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>ROKU</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Square</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SQ</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Sea Ltd</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SE</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Twilio</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TWLO</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Snap</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SNAP</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>The Trade Desk</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TTD</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Shopify</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SHOP</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Roku (ROKU)</b></p>\n<p>With its move from sub-$30 in late 2018 to its recent high of almost $500, Roku has firmly cemented itself into the next generation of growth stocks. Will it grow to be the next <b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AAPL</u></b>)? In terms of market capitalization, probably not.</p>\n<p>However, it’s firmly entrenched in a major secular growth trend. Streaming TV is not going away. It’s too convenient for customers and offers too many options to be discarded. It’s simply the new way that we digest video and Roku’s leading the charge.</p>\n<p>Too many people keep thinking of Roku as the streaming stick you put in the TV or as the smart TV you buy from the store. That’s Roku’s hardware unit, but it’s the wrong focus. The hardware is simply the gateway to the company’s<i>platform</i>.</p>\n<p>The platform has all of the leverage. It’s what’s powering the big move in gross profit, revenue growth and usage. It’s why Roku has an enormous runway of growth both domestically and internationally. Despite years to get the story right, look at how conservative the analysts remain.</p>\n<p>Revenue of $574 million beat estimates by almost $83 million, nearly 17% higher than consensus estimates, and was up almost 80% year over year. A surprise profit of 54 cents per share crushed expectations by 67 cents. Revenue estimates for next quarter torched expectations as well ($615 million at the midpoint vs. expectations of $546 million).</p>\n<p><b>Square (SQ)</b></p>\n<p>What do I love about Square? It’s continued push toward new technologies and features. It’s not shy about disrupting a particular space, nor does it seem worried about angering the legacy providers in various industries.</p>\n<p>It’s quickly becoming a go-to platform — there’s that word again,<i>platform</i>— for all things money.</p>\n<p>Whether you’re a small- or medium-sized business or just a single person looking to send some money, Square has various solutions at hand. Business lending, recurring revenue via point-of-service, its Cash App, payroll services, cryptocurrency trading — you name it.</p>\n<p>It’s why so many investors continue to hold this name, believing that it has a long runway of growth as it continues to gain customers.</p>\n<p>The other thing I like about Square? How well it held up during the bear market correction. Shares fell “just” 20% from peak to trough. While shedding a fifth of its value seems rough, it’s<i>much</i>better than its peers held up. Almost all of these stocks fell 40% or more. It’s even more impressive considering that Square rallied more than 250% from the March 2020 lows and it didn’t break its March lows (again, like most of its peers did in May).</p>\n<p><b>Sea Ltd (SE)</b></p>\n<p>Another stock that had impressive relative strength was Sea Ltd. In fact, this stock had a very similar performance run as Square.</p>\n<p>Shares rallied 500% from the March 2020 low to the February high and then corrected 27%. Sea stock is now only about $5 from its all-time high. This stock is incredibly resilient. Further, it’s got the growth to back it up.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect 85% revenue growth this year and 46% growth in 2022. On the earnings front, analysts expect a loss in each of the next two years, but Sea is forecast to shrink those losses in both years.</p>\n<p>Now it’s looking to expand in South America too, further helping drive its growth higher.</p>\n<p>I can’t believe how well the stock has held up after such a strong run and rapid rebound. This one has plenty of relative strength.</p>\n<p><b>Twilio (TWLO)</b></p>\n<p>One of the highest-quality companies on this list, Twilio has become a growth giant. Like Roku, it wasn’t long ago that Twilio was trading below $40. Heck, at its recent low, Twilio shares were trading below $100. At its recent high though, the stock was north of $450.</p>\n<p>Twilio has become<i>the</i>premiere platform for businesses to communicate with their customers.Everyone from ride-sharing companies to <b>Airbnb</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>ABNB</u></b>) to <b>Twitter</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TWTR</u></b>) use Twilio to communicate with customers and users, with plenty of others in between.</p>\n<p>In the world of growth, we have speculative growth stocks and established growth stocks. While it’s rewarding to catching the speculative winners that turn into the future growth giants, Twilio is an established growth giant.</p>\n<p>Its acquisition of SendGrid took Twilio to the next level by incorporating email into the communication strategy. The company is leveraging the internet and mobile devices for communication, and unless we stop traveling, buying, tweeting and other things, Twilio will be here for years and years to come.</p>\n<p><b>Snap (SNAP)</b></p>\n<p>Snap is one of Wall Street’s favorite social media giants.<b>Facebook</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>FB</u></b>) has garnered some nice momentum lately, but Snap is absolutely one that investors will come back to and bid higher if growth stocks fetch a bid.</p>\n<p>While it took a few years for this young company to find its way, management has done so in an impressive manner. Consensus estimates now call for 55% revenue growth this year, near-50% growth in 2022 and more than 40% growth in 2023.</p>\n<p>If those estimates pan out, it will take Snap from $2.5 billion in sales in 2020 to more than $8 billion in revenue in 2024. Whoa! Now you can see where the bullish case comes from with this one.</p>\n<p>Making things even better, the company is forecast to become profitable this year, then more than triple its earnings in 2022.</p>\n<p>We’ll see how accurate some of these estimates are. But one thing seems certain and that’s that Snapchat isn’t going anywhere and it should be a significant driver of growth for the next several years.</p>\n<p>Like Square, Snap didn’t break down to new lows this quarter and fell “just” 28% from the high. Let’s see how long it takes to erase the current 10% dip from the highs.</p>\n<p><b>The Trade Desk (TTD)</b></p>\n<p>Now this one is truly perplexing. The Trade Desk became a Wall Street favorite, surging from about $150 in March 2020 to almost $1,000 by December.</p>\n<p>After a move like that, I don’t care how great the company is — the stock deserves to correct. Of course, The Trade Desk was also trading at more than 40 times revenue, which made it susceptible to the “snowball selloff” or a decline that gains serious momentum on the way down once investors discover a reason to sell it.</p>\n<p>Despite the bumpy price action, including a 50% correction off the highs, this stock looks like a bargain on the dip. Why? Because it’s a fantastic business!</p>\n<p>Co-founder and CEO Jeff Green has built a remarkable business, one that is thriving around the world — including China. That’s a big difference vs. some of the ad giants of the world, like <b>Alphabet</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOGL</u></b>, NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOG</u></b>) and Facebook, which aren’t allowed to operate in China.</p>\n<p>The company uses data to spread contracted products to reach as many potential customers as possible. As online advertising continues to grow and as advertising on streaming TV grows, so too should The Trade Desk.</p>\n<p>Perhaps one of my favorite things about this company? The cash flow and the bottom line. Despite being a growth company, this company still generates solid earnings. I expect The Trade Desk to generate 30%-plus revenue growth in each of the next three years, minimum.</p>\n<p><b>Shopify (SHOP)</b></p>\n<p>Shopify isn’t exactly flying under the radar these days. The company commands a market cap of $163 billion, making it a large cap tech stock.</p>\n<p>I wrote about this one in Dec. 2019, back when it had a $30 billion to $40 billion market cap. My case was based on the idea of the stock tripling in the next five to 10 years. I was certainly bullish on this stock, but clearly not bullish enough.</p>\n<p>Put simply, Shopify is revolutionizing and completely disrupting the e-commerce space. Yeah, there’s <b>Amazon</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>), but there’s enough room for two of these beasts.</p>\n<p>Shopify will have its share of ups and downs, but it’s not going anywhere soon.

Let's look at a handful of the best to buy this month.\nSource: Shutterstock\n\nIt’s no secret that growth stocks have taken an absolute beating over the last couple months. In fact, even though there’s been a decent bounce from the recent low, this group has been engulfed in a brutal bear market. As a result, it’s harder to find growth stocks to buy.\nThat’s even as other indices have hit new all-time highs, and many are sitting just below those highs. The crosscurrents we’ve experienced in the stock market via sector and asset rotation have been pretty wild over the past few months.\nHowever, these are the types of rotations we should berunning toward— not away from.\nObviously we don’t want to be buying low-quality stocks that have been obliterated. With that being said, many high-quality names were thrown out with these losing stocks. As a result, they’ve suffered declines of 30% to 50% in the past several months.\nI am a huge advocate of scooping up growth stocks on these types of declines. So let’s look at seven of them now.\n\nRoku(NASDAQ:ROKU)\nSquare(NYSE:SQ)\nSea Ltd(NYSE:SE)\nTwilio(NYSE:TWLO)\nSnap(NYSE:SNAP)\nThe Trade Desk(NASDAQ:TTD)\nShopify(NYSE:SHOP)\n\nRoku (ROKU)\nWith its move from sub-$30 in late 2018 to its recent high of almost $500, Roku has firmly cemented itself into the next generation of growth stocks. Will it grow to be the next Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL)? In terms of market capitalization, probably not.\nHowever, it’s firmly entrenched in a major secular growth trend. Streaming TV is not going away. It’s too convenient for customers and offers too many options to be discarded. It’s simply the new way that we digest video and Roku’s leading the charge.\nToo many people keep thinking of Roku as the streaming stick you put in the TV or as the smart TV you buy from the store. That’s Roku’s hardware unit, but it’s the wrong focus. The hardware is simply the gateway to the company’splatform.\nThe platform has all of the leverage. It’s what’s powering the big move in gross profit, revenue growth and usage. It’s why Roku has an enormous runway of growth both domestically and internationally. Despite years to get the story right, look at how conservative the analysts remain.\nRevenue of $574 million beat estimates by almost $83 million, nearly 17% higher than consensus estimates, and was up almost 80% year over year. A surprise profit of 54 cents per share crushed expectations by 67 cents. Revenue estimates for next quarter torched expectations as well ($615 million at the midpoint vs. expectations of $546 million).\nSquare (SQ)\nWhat do I love about Square? It’s continued push toward new technologies and features. It’s not shy about disrupting a particular space, nor does it seem worried about angering the legacy providers in various industries.\nIt’s quickly becoming a go-to platform — there’s that word again,platform— for all things money.\nWhether you’re a small- or medium-sized business or just a single person looking to send some money, Square has various solutions at hand. Business lending, recurring revenue via point-of-service, its Cash App, payroll services, cryptocurrency trading — you name it.\nIt’s why so many investors continue to hold this name, believing that it has a long runway of growth as it continues to gain customers.\nThe other thing I like about Square? How well it held up during the bear market correction. Shares fell “just” 20% from peak to trough. While shedding a fifth of its value seems rough, it’smuchbetter than its peers held up. Almost all of these stocks fell 40% or more. It’s even more impressive considering that Square rallied more than 250% from the March 2020 lows and it didn’t break its March lows (again, like most of its peers did in May).\nSea Ltd (SE)\nAnother stock that had impressive relative strength was Sea Ltd. In fact, this stock had a very similar performance run as Square.\nShares rallied 500% from the March 2020 low to the February high and then corrected 27%. Sea stock is now only about $5 from its all-time high. This stock is incredibly resilient. Further, it’s got the growth to back it up.\nAnalysts expect 85% revenue growth this year and 46% growth in 2022. On the earnings front, analysts expect a loss in each of the next two years, but Sea is forecast to shrink those losses in both years.\nNow it’s looking to expand in South America too, further helping drive its growth higher.\nI can’t believe how well the stock has held up after such a strong run and rapid rebound. This one has plenty of relative strength.\nTwilio (TWLO)\nOne of the highest-quality companies on this list, Twilio has become a growth giant. Like Roku, it wasn’t long ago that Twilio was trading below $40. Heck, at its recent low, Twilio shares were trading below $100. At its recent high though, the stock was north of $450.\nTwilio has becomethepremiere platform for businesses to communicate with their customers.Everyone from ride-sharing companies to Airbnb(NASDAQ:ABNB) to Twitter(NYSE:TWTR) use Twilio to communicate with customers and users, with plenty of others in between.\nIn the world of growth, we have speculative growth stocks and established growth stocks. While it’s rewarding to catching the speculative winners that turn into the future growth giants, Twilio is an established growth giant.\nIts acquisition of SendGrid took Twilio to the next level by incorporating email into the communication strategy. The company is leveraging the internet and mobile devices for communication, and unless we stop traveling, buying, tweeting and other things, Twilio will be here for years and years to come.\nSnap (SNAP)\nSnap is one of Wall Street’s favorite social media giants.Facebook(NASDAQ:FB) has garnered some nice momentum lately, but Snap is absolutely one that investors will come back to and bid higher if growth stocks fetch a bid.\nWhile it took a few years for this young company to find its way, management has done so in an impressive manner. Consensus estimates now call for 55% revenue growth this year, near-50% growth in 2022 and more than 40% growth in 2023.\nIf those estimates pan out, it will take Snap from $2.5 billion in sales in 2020 to more than $8 billion in revenue in 2024. Whoa! Now you can see where the bullish case comes from with this one.\nMaking things even better, the company is forecast to become profitable this year, then more than triple its earnings in 2022.\nWe’ll see how accurate some of these estimates are. But one thing seems certain and that’s that Snapchat isn’t going anywhere and it should be a significant driver of growth for the next several years.\nLike Square, Snap didn’t break down to new lows this quarter and fell “just” 28% from the high. Let’s see how long it takes to erase the current 10% dip from the highs.\nThe Trade Desk (TTD)\nNow this one is truly perplexing. The Trade Desk became a Wall Street favorite, surging from about $150 in March 2020 to almost $1,000 by December.\nAfter a move like that, I don’t care how great the company is — the stock deserves to correct. Of course, The Trade Desk was also trading at more than 40 times revenue, which made it susceptible to the “snowball selloff” or a decline that gains serious momentum on the way down once investors discover a reason to sell it.\nDespite the bumpy price action, including a 50% correction off the highs, this stock looks like a bargain on the dip. Why? Because it’s a fantastic business!\nCo-founder and CEO Jeff Green has built a remarkable business, one that is thriving around the world — including China. That’s a big difference vs. some of the ad giants of the world, like Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOGL, NASDAQ:GOOG) and Facebook, which aren’t allowed to operate in China.\nThe company uses data to spread contracted products to reach as many potential customers as possible. As online advertising continues to grow and as advertising on streaming TV grows, so too should The Trade Desk.\nPerhaps one of my favorite things about this company? The cash flow and the bottom line. Despite being a growth company, this company still generates solid earnings. I expect The Trade Desk to generate 30%-plus revenue growth in each of the next three years, minimum.\nShopify (SHOP)\nShopify isn’t exactly flying under the radar these days. The company commands a market cap of $163 billion, making it a large cap tech stock.\nI wrote about this one in Dec. 2019, back when it had a $30 billion to $40 billion market cap. My case was based on the idea of the stock tripling in the next five to 10 years. I was certainly bullish on this stock, but clearly not bullish enough.\nPut simply, Shopify is revolutionizing and completely disrupting the e-commerce space. Yeah, there’s Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), but there’s enough room for two of these beasts.\nShopify will have its share of ups and downs, but it’s not going anywhere soon. It’s built a can’t-live-without platform for its customers and it’s not even close to being done yet. The valuation is high, but the growth seems endless.\nLike others on this list, Shopify held up pretty well during the selloff. I wouldn’t hesitate to hold this name long term and take advantage of the dips.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
