This makes the stock look like one to own, even though it is up 517% since I last suggested itin February 2017, compared with gains of 80% for the S&amp;P 500&nbsp;and 140% for Nasdaq Composite Index.</p>\n<p>Let’s take a look at why, and how AMD stacks up against competitors.</p>\n<p><b>Key dynamics</b></p>\n<p>Advanced Micro Devices designs central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) used in data center servers, PCs and videogame consoles. That makes it a play on two of the biggest trends in tech right now — migration to the cloud and videogame hardware. Historically, the company lagged Intel Corp..But it has now surpassed its rival because of innovative chip designs and manufacturing issues at Intel.</p>\n<p>Over the past few years, AMD has rolled out highly competitive lines of chips, thanks to the leadership of CEO Lisa Su, who took the helm in 2014, says tech analyst Peter Karazeris at Thrivent. This put AMD back in the game. AMD’s EPYC series of processors for servers has been endorsed by broad usage among the main cloud providers — including Amazon Inc.,Alphabet Inc.,Microsoft Corp.,Oracle Corp.&nbsp;and Tencent Holdings Ltd.AMD’s Radeon GPUs for gaming hardware and its Ryzen line of chips used in PCs and laptops are equally successful.</p>\n<p>Besides better chip design, AMD has pulled ahead by drawing on advanced manufacturing capabilities of Taiwan Semiconductor&nbsp;Manufacturing Co. Ltd.,which can pack more punch in chips through the use of smaller, 7 nanometer transistors. Intel is stuck back at 10 nanometers.</p>\n<p>Here’s the upshot in all of this: AMD is a solid play on the megatrend of cloud computing and the related data center buildout. It’s a bet on the increasing complexity of artificial intelligence and big data analytics. And its GPU chips give Nvidia a run for the money. That makes AMD a play on the new Xbox and Sony PlayStation console upgrade cycle and the potential release of a new Nintendo Switch later this year. AMD is also now a serious contender in PCs and notebooks.</p>\n<p>“Our goal at AMD is to really be the leader in the high-performance computing wave,” says Su.</p>\n<p>She’s getting her way, and you can see the success in the numbers. First-quarter sales grew 93% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. AMD guided for 50% sales growth for the year, up from prior guidance of 37% growth.</p>\n<p>“We believe this guidance should be easily attainable, particularly as Intel deals with manufacturing challenges,” says Morningstar analyst Abhinav Davuluri.</p>\n<p>In CPUs, sales are growing faster than those of the overall industry, which tells us AMD is gaining share from competitors.</p>\n<p>“We expect continued share growth through the balance of the year and into 2022,” says Goldman Sachs analyst Toshiya Hari, who has a buy rating and a $106 price target on AMD. The chip company is on Goldman’s “conviction list” of highly favored companies.</p>\n<p>Here’s how AMD stacks up against competitors in terms of growth in the most recent quarter, profit margins and valuation:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc890546f0d4079834223660e88bc00d\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"387\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Cash and cash flow</b></p>\n<p>Big cash positions and solid cash flow are positives for investors because they give companies freedom that comes from reliance on banks for financing. Strong cash positions also support investor-friendly moves, such as buybacks and dividends.</p>\n<p>Thanks to all the growth, AMD’s cash position rose sharply last year to $2.3 billion, from $1.5 billion in 2019. AMD doesn’t pay a dividend, but its board recently approved a large $4 billion share repurchase. As the company’s first big return of cash to shareholders, this represents about 4% of AMD’s market capitalization. It also signals the company’s confidence in its business and ability to continue generating solid free cash flow despite rising concerns about intensifying competition, says Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore.</p>\n<p>Here’s a look at AMD’s cash position and cash flow&nbsp; growth, relative to competitors. The numbers for Marvell Technology Inc.&nbsp;are through Jan. 30, 2021. The rest are for the first quarter:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/798ea9650ce6e4247ba91b6912e48a82\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Global reach</b></p>\n<p>AMD books sales in many regions. That’s a positive when global growth is as strong as it is now — lifted by $30 trillion in fiscal and monetary stimulus worldwide. Big exposure to China could be a risk because of U.S.-China tensions, but this issue seems to be diminishing a bit under President Biden, at least so far.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04e42a7c55f914ecd7ddb2cbf8562253\" tg-width=\"1259\" tg-height=\"772\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Stock valuation and performance</b></p>\n<p>By most measures, AMD is the second-priciest stock in its group. But given the growth, it’s justified.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b26407edc4248424b878d3024bb9ac2\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"550\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Wall Street’s opinion</b></p>\n<p>As a group, Wall Street analysts are predicting the biggest gains for AMD, among all the companies in its space. It’s also notable that only 61% of analysts have a buy rating, lower than the percentages for Nvidia, Broadcom Inc.,Marvell and Analog Devices Inc..For investors, this is a positive because it tells us there’s more room for sell-side analysts to turn bullish and drive their clients into the name.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/995f76673215ab81971fbc2e8ace0641\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"551\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>One big risk for AMD is that Intel stages a comeback, notes Tony Wang, a tech analyst at T. Rowe Price. Intel has done so before. But AMD still has a few tricks up its sleeve.</p>\n<p>It recently launched a more advanced version of its EPYC processor, codenamed Milan. This line of server chips will ramp up sales in the second half of this year. AMD is making the leap to even more efficient 5 nanometer production with a line of chips dubbed Genoa, slated for release in 2022. These two rollouts will allow AMD to continue its market-share gains against competitors including Intel, says Jefferies analyst Mark&nbsp;Lipacis — one reason he has a “buy” rating and a $110 price target on the stock.</p>\n<p>AMD is also rolling out next-generation GPUs based on its Compute DNA (CDNA)&nbsp;chip architecture, for use in data centers.

This makes the stock look like one to own, even though it is up 517% since I last suggested itin February 2017, compared with gains of 80% for the S&P 500 and 140% for Nasdaq Composite Index.\nLet’s take a look at why, and how AMD stacks up against competitors.\nKey dynamics\nAdvanced Micro Devices designs central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) used in data center servers, PCs and videogame consoles. That makes it a play on two of the biggest trends in tech right now — migration to the cloud and videogame hardware. Historically, the company lagged Intel Corp..But it has now surpassed its rival because of innovative chip designs and manufacturing issues at Intel.\nOver the past few years, AMD has rolled out highly competitive lines of chips, thanks to the leadership of CEO Lisa Su, who took the helm in 2014, says tech analyst Peter Karazeris at Thrivent. This put AMD back in the game. AMD’s EPYC series of processors for servers has been endorsed by broad usage among the main cloud providers — including Amazon Inc.,Alphabet Inc.,Microsoft Corp.,Oracle Corp. and Tencent Holdings Ltd.AMD’s Radeon GPUs for gaming hardware and its Ryzen line of chips used in PCs and laptops are equally successful.\nBesides better chip design, AMD has pulled ahead by drawing on advanced manufacturing capabilities of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd.,which can pack more punch in chips through the use of smaller, 7 nanometer transistors. Intel is stuck back at 10 nanometers.\nHere’s the upshot in all of this: AMD is a solid play on the megatrend of cloud computing and the related data center buildout. It’s a bet on the increasing complexity of artificial intelligence and big data analytics. And its GPU chips give Nvidia a run for the money. That makes AMD a play on the new Xbox and Sony PlayStation console upgrade cycle and the potential release of a new Nintendo Switch later this year. AMD is also now a serious contender in PCs and notebooks.\n“Our goal at AMD is to really be the leader in the high-performance computing wave,” says Su.\nShe’s getting her way, and you can see the success in the numbers. First-quarter sales grew 93% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. AMD guided for 50% sales growth for the year, up from prior guidance of 37% growth.\n“We believe this guidance should be easily attainable, particularly as Intel deals with manufacturing challenges,” says Morningstar analyst Abhinav Davuluri.\nIn CPUs, sales are growing faster than those of the overall industry, which tells us AMD is gaining share from competitors.\n“We expect continued share growth through the balance of the year and into 2022,” says Goldman Sachs analyst Toshiya Hari, who has a buy rating and a $106 price target on AMD. The chip company is on Goldman’s “conviction list” of highly favored companies.\nHere’s how AMD stacks up against competitors in terms of growth in the most recent quarter, profit margins and valuation:\n(FACTSET)\nCash and cash flow\nBig cash positions and solid cash flow are positives for investors because they give companies freedom that comes from reliance on banks for financing. Strong cash positions also support investor-friendly moves, such as buybacks and dividends.\nThanks to all the growth, AMD’s cash position rose sharply last year to $2.3 billion, from $1.5 billion in 2019. AMD doesn’t pay a dividend, but its board recently approved a large $4 billion share repurchase. As the company’s first big return of cash to shareholders, this represents about 4% of AMD’s market capitalization. It also signals the company’s confidence in its business and ability to continue generating solid free cash flow despite rising concerns about intensifying competition, says Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore.\nHere’s a look at AMD’s cash position and cash flow  growth, relative to competitors. The numbers for Marvell Technology Inc. are through Jan. 30, 2021. The rest are for the first quarter:\n(FACTSET)\nGlobal reach\nAMD books sales in many regions. That’s a positive when global growth is as strong as it is now — lifted by $30 trillion in fiscal and monetary stimulus worldwide. Big exposure to China could be a risk because of U.S.-China tensions, but this issue seems to be diminishing a bit under President Biden, at least so far.\n(FACTSET)\nStock valuation and performance\nBy most measures, AMD is the second-priciest stock in its group. But given the growth, it’s justified.\n(FACTSET)\nWall Street’s opinion\nAs a group, Wall Street analysts are predicting the biggest gains for AMD, among all the companies in its space. It’s also notable that only 61% of analysts have a buy rating, lower than the percentages for Nvidia, Broadcom Inc.,Marvell and Analog Devices Inc..For investors, this is a positive because it tells us there’s more room for sell-side analysts to turn bullish and drive their clients into the name.\n(FACTSET)\nRisks\nOne big risk for AMD is that Intel stages a comeback, notes Tony Wang, a tech analyst at T. Rowe Price. Intel has done so before. But AMD still has a few tricks up its sleeve.\nIt recently launched a more advanced version of its EPYC processor, codenamed Milan. This line of server chips will ramp up sales in the second half of this year. AMD is making the leap to even more efficient 5 nanometer production with a line of chips dubbed Genoa, slated for release in 2022. These two rollouts will allow AMD to continue its market-share gains against competitors including Intel, says Jefferies analyst Mark Lipacis — one reason he has a “buy” rating and a $110 price target on the stock.\nAMD is also rolling out next-generation GPUs based on its Compute DNA (CDNA) chip architecture, for use in data centers. And AMD’s merger with Xilinx Inc. later this year should help AMD produce even more sophisticated chips by incorporating Xilinx’s field-programmable gate array (FPGA) capabilities into its chip designs. FPGA gives customers more leeway to customize chips for their own needs.\nOther risks include the cyclical nature of the chip industry and the unpredictable demand from consumers and companies as economic growth rates change. One more threat is the broader adoption of competing chips based on ARM (advanced RISC machines) technology.\nImportant dates\nJuly 26:Second-quarter earnings release.\nOct. 25:Third-quarter earnings release.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":484,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185765822,"gmtCreate":1623674258466,"gmtModify":1704208318111,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good news!&nbsp;","listText":"Good news!&nbsp;","text":"Good news!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185765822","repostId":"1106104418","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":321,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185786173,"gmtCreate":1623673660192,"gmtModify":1704208301683,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"AMD too","listText":"AMD too","text":"AMD too","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185786173","repostId":"1165811803","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1165811803","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623632712,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1165811803?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-14 09:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Unshortable Stocks That Are Too Risky to Bet Against","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1165811803","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"If you are thinking about shorting one of these companies, you're doing something wrong.

But there are also fundamentally strong names where initiating a short position can be risky. These are the so called unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>True,&nbsp;Short squeeze rallies have delivered multi-fold returns for investors.<b>AMC Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMC</u></b>) is the recent case of a short squeeze rally. However, this does not change the fact that some stocks are worth going short. It’s very likely that AMC stock will witness an equally sharp correction.</p>\n<p>That’s not the case with unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>My focus is on four unshortable stocks where short interest as a percentage of free float is approximately 1%. Two of these stocks trade near all-time highs. The other two are in a consolidation mode and there seems to be a high probability of a breakout on the upside.</p>\n<p>The reasons for these stocks being unshortable are strong fundamentals, high growth and strong cash flows. Additionally, there are ample positive business growth catalysts on the horizon.</p>\n<p>Let’s take a deeper look into the reasons that make these stocks unshortable.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Nvidia</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVDA</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Target</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TGT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Shopify</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SHOP</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AAPL</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Nvidia (NVDA)</b></p>\n<p>NVDA stock is currently trading near 52-week highs. However, the short interest in the stock is just 1% of the free float. This is probably an indication of the point that NVDA stock is among the unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>From a fundamental perspective, Nvidia has been on a high growth trajectory. For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.</p>\n<p>In addition, Nvidia reported&nbsp;operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.</p>\n<p>In a recent news, Nvidia has asked&nbsp;Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition&nbsp;of&nbsp;<b>Arm</b>. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.</p>\n<p>With focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.</p>\n<p><b>Target (TGT)</b></p>\n<p>TGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.</p>\n<p>UBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning&nbsp;becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.</p>\n<p>As the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding&nbsp;$2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.</p>\n<p>Target has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company&nbsp;reported comparable sales growth of 22.9%&nbsp;on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.</p>\n<p>Clearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.</p>\n<p>From a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.</p>\n<p>Overall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.</p>\n<p><b>Shopify (SHOP)</b></p>\n<p>SHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>For the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that&nbsp;monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.</p>\n<p>With the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has&nbsp;expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.</p>\n<p>As of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.</p>\n<p>Overall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.</p>\n<p><b>Apple (AAPL)</b></p>\n<p>AAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation. With strong growth and a production innovation pipeline, it’s not surprising that short interest in AAPL stock is less than 1% of the free float.</p>\n<p>As I write,<i>Reuters</i>&nbsp;reports that Apple is in&nbsp;talks with Chinese manufacturers for a car battery factory&nbsp;in the U.S. The company seems to be gradually working towards its first electric vehicle. That’s likely to keep the markets excited.</p>\n<p>Apple has also witnessed&nbsp;strong growth in the wearables and services segment. Besides strong top-line growth, revenue is more diversified. At the same time, iPhone sales are likely to remain robust with 5G being a key growth driver.</p>\n<p>Apple’s cash glut also implies sustained value creation through share repurchase and possibly higher dividends. Of course, the cash buffer gives the company ample headroom to invest in product innovation and possible acquisitions.</p>\n<p>Overall, as strong growth sustains, it’s too risky to short AAPL stock. On the contrary, current levels look attractive for considering some long-term exposure.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>4 Unshortable Stocks That Are Too Risky to Bet Against</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\">\n4 Unshortable Stocks That Are Too Risky to Bet Against\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-14 09:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/06/4-unshortable-stocks-that-are-too-risky-to-bet-against/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>If you are thinking about shorting one of these companies, you're doing something wrong\nSource: Vladeep / Shutterstock.com\nThe markets are dealing with an army of investors who are after heavily ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/4-unshortable-stocks-that-are-too-risky-to-bet-against/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"英伟达","SHOP":"Shopify Inc","AAPL":"苹果","TGT":"塔吉特"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/4-unshortable-stocks-that-are-too-risky-to-bet-against/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1165811803","content_text":"If you are thinking about shorting one of these companies, you're doing something wrong\nSource: Vladeep / Shutterstock.com\nThe markets are dealing with an army of investors who are after heavily shorted stocks.

For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.\nIn addition, Nvidia reported operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.\nIn a recent news, Nvidia has asked Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition of Arm. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.\nWith focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.\nTarget (TGT)\nTGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.\nUBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.\nAs the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding $2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.\nTarget has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company reported comparable sales growth of 22.9% on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.\nClearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.\nFrom a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.\nOverall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.\nShopify (SHOP)\nSHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.\nFor the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.\nWith the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.\nAs of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.\nOverall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.\nApple (AAPL)\nAAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation. With strong growth and a production innovation pipeline, it’s not surprising that short interest in AAPL stock is less than 1% of the free float.\nAs I write,Reuters reports that Apple is in talks with Chinese manufacturers for a car battery factory in the U.S. The company seems to be gradually working towards its first electric vehicle. That’s likely to keep the markets excited.\nApple has also witnessed strong growth in the wearables and services segment. Besides strong top-line growth, revenue is more diversified. At the same time, iPhone sales are likely to remain robust with 5G being a key growth driver.\nApple’s cash glut also implies sustained value creation through share repurchase and possibly higher dividends. Of course, the cash buffer gives the company ample headroom to invest in product innovation and possible acquisitions.\nOverall, as strong growth sustains, it’s too risky to short AAPL stock. On the contrary, current levels look attractive for considering some long-term exposure.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":396,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185789581,"gmtCreate":1623673503343,"gmtModify":1704208296980,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Again?","listText":"Again?","text":"Again?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185789581","repostId":"2143778219","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143778219","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623671623,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143778219?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-14 19:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Elon Musk’s Tweet Revives Bitcoin Bulls","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143778219","media":"FX Empire","summary":"At the time of filing this report, Bitcoin traded near the $40,000 mark, posting gains of about 12% ","content":"<p>At the time of filing this report, Bitcoin traded near the $40,000 mark, posting gains of about 12% for the day.</p>\n<p>Present price actions reveal the most popular crypto asset had been hovering in a lower corridor between the $30,000 and $40,00 price levels since the second week of last month, suggest the asset was consolidating.</p>\n<p>Though recent macros reveal that investors are increasing their buying capacity on the crypto asset partly attributed on Elon Musk’s recent comment suggesting Tesla would resume buying and accepting Bitcoin once miners go 50% with renewable energy.</p>\n<p>These fundamentals boosted the faith among vintage bulls having a long-term mindset on the most popular Crypto amid recent calls for tough Crypto regulations.</p>\n<p>The tech Billionaire’s tweet also suggested that the world’s most valuable carmaker will resume allowing Bitcoin transactions, once those terms were met.</p>\n<p>Consequently, Elon Musk reiterated his earlier statements on Tesla having sold only 10% of its Bitcoin holdings, which seem to indicate Tesla’s hasn’t sold anymore, triggered more bullish sentiments around the Crypto asset, in the early hours of Monday.</p>\n<p>Such a surge on the price of the flagship Crypto pushed the market value of Bitcoin to about $740 billion or 45% of the total crypto market valuation.</p>\n<p>Though it’s important to note Bitcoin is still down by about 38% from its all-time high of $64,778 set on April 14.</p>\n<p>Additionally, market sentiments around Bitcoin seem to be rallying stronger on reports that President Hassan of Tanzania instructed its central bank on reforming their banking processes, singling out crypto assets as the future of finance, further gave Bitcoin bulls the much-needed momentum in aiming for the resistance level of $40,000.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Another growth spurt should follow in September and October after the extra unemployment insurance expires in the remaining states; schools reopen—providing free daycare for some would-be workers, especially women; and many office employees return to their desks, they add.\nAt that point, the Fed might start talking about actually reducing its massive securities purchases. Given the “taper tantrum” thrown by the markets when the central bank slowed its bond buying in 2013, this Fed will want to disclose how, when, and how fast it plans to slow its pour into the punch bowl. That’s what we’ll be listening for this week.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":446,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185715493,"gmtCreate":1623673287412,"gmtModify":1704208291938,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Renewable&nbsp;energy ftw","listText":"Renewable&nbsp;energy ftw","text":"Renewable energy ftw","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185715493","repostId":"2143857187","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":326,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185712477,"gmtCreate":1623673209499,"gmtModify":1704208290640,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy?","listText":"Buy?","text":"Buy?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185712477","repostId":"1110538556","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":278,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185716439,"gmtCreate":1623673178121,"gmtModify":1704208289187,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Let's go PDD","listText":"Let's go PDD","text":"Let's go PDD","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185716439","repostId":"2140422463","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2140422463","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1622734323,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2140422463?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-03 23:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Forget Alibaba, These 3 Chinese Tech Stocks Are Better Buys","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2140422463","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Don't underestimate JD and these two other e-commerce companies.","content":"<p><b>Alibaba</b> (NYSE:BABA), China's top e-commerce and cloud company, lost nearly 10% of its value from January to late May, underperforming many industry peers.

However, it's actually the country's largest direct retailer, since it generates most of its revenue from its first-party marketplace.</p>\n<p>Unlike Alibaba, which generates most of its e-commerce revenue from third-party sellers on Taobao and Tmall, JD takes on its own inventories and fulfills orders with its logistics network.

Simply summed up, amongst the extended valuations in the sector, Alibaba's robust growth both in its top and the bottom line was (and is) too hard to ignore at its current depressed valuation, despite the risks and volatility surrounding Chinese equities.</p>\n<p>Since then, shares have exchanged hands at even lower prices, but we remain strong believers in Alibaba's and China's long-term potential in general and don't worry too much for now.</p>\n<p>The funny thing is that both the CCP (domestically) and the US (internationally) are giving Chinese stocks trading in the US a hard time. Obviously, the two parties have different reasons and mindsets, but for us (investors), the outcome is similar - lower stock prices.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbb980c57543c209007d829e2e0341ba\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"538\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Can this pressure last a while longer? Yes, it can.</li>\n <li>Can Chinese stocks lose more value (as a result)? Yes, they can.</li>\n <li>Do we still see these stocks as a superb long-term purchase? Yes, we do.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Lately, we've sold/hedged most of our (direct) holdings - either by selling straight (e.g.,OTCPK:TCEHY) or by selling covered calls (e.g., JD(NASDAQ:JD), Baozun(NASDAQ:BZUN), BABA.) This year we have been primarily active in buying Chinese stocks (usually not straight rather) by selling PUTs.</p>\n<p>This doesn't only give us an extra margin of safety, but it allows us to set our own entry price based on our estimates (similar to a price target, but the other way round.)</p>\n<p>In this article, we want to focus on Pinduoduo (PDD), another one of our bullish Chinese positions, though one we have only recently added to our portfolios.</p>\n<p><b>A hyper-growth story at a discount</b></p>\n<p>Besides the typical pressure that Chinese equities face during this time, the Shanghai Consumer Council recently&nbsp;summoned&nbsp;Pinduoduo to urge the e-commerce giant to address problems regarding product quality, fake products, forced order cancellations, non-deliveries, and a price war over new user acquisition. Consequently, shares took another hit which we were happy to once again take advantage of.</p>\n<p>But first, let's briefly discuss why Pinduoduo is greatly undervalued, considering its growth prospects.</p>\n<p>In its most recent&nbsp;quarterly&nbsp;results, Pinduoduo delivered another spectacular report, posting revenue growth of 267% YoY to $3.38B, $180M ahead of estimates. The company is firing in all cylinders, growing its active buyers and MAUs (monthly active users) at explosive rates.</p>\n<p>The fact that active buyers grew by 31% on an LTM basis is utterly impressive, considering that 628.2 million people were already using Pinduoduo during this time last year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54893253cccfc8a765a89b85998ba15e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"352\"><span>Source:Q1 presentation</span></p>\n<p>At its current growth rates, even if we were to assume a substantial deceleration, Pinduoduo would likely remain a hyper-growth stock for years to come. Investors often praise the American FAANMG club for their growth prospects, yet their growth can hardly compare to some of their Chinese counterparts, including Pinduoduo.</p>\n<p>To examine the company's revenue growth prospects, let's take a look at the graph below, from which we can note two main points. Firstly, that analyst estimates indicate revenue growth of 33% and 34% in the coming years. However, this makes little to no sense based on the company's revenue growth trajectory. For context, Pinduoduo's 5-year sales growth CAGR is 112%. The second thing to note, which proves our skepticism towards these estimates simultaneously, is that analysts have been hiking their estimates multiple times within a very short period of time, dissolving their accuracy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5acf69f701dc45d5e224085c63f54438\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>We believe that not only is Pinduoduo's dip over the past few months an excellent opportunity, but also the fact that the market is likely pricing the stock based on (what they seem to be ultra-soft) analyst estimates makes PDD's investment case even more attractive, considering the long term (mispricing) potential.</p>\n<p>As you can see from the stock's forward P/S estimates (which are based on estimates which, as we mentioned, are not given credit), Pinduoduo is incredibly cheap. Even if we were to assume revenue growth of around 34%, (which we see as an ultra-soft estimate), a forward P/S of 9.64 would still make no sense.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d366d15b667a156df9c2a09bd1ad64a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>At its current growth rates, that ratio could easily be double its current one.

Simply summed up, amongst the extended valuations in the sector, Alibaba's robust growth both in its top and the bottom line was (and is) too hard to ignore at its current depressed valuation, despite the risks and volatility surrounding Chinese equities.\nSince then, shares have exchanged hands at even lower prices, but we remain strong believers in Alibaba's and China's long-term potential in general and don't worry too much for now.\nThe funny thing is that both the CCP (domestically) and the US (internationally) are giving Chinese stocks trading in the US a hard time. Obviously, the two parties have different reasons and mindsets, but for us (investors), the outcome is similar - lower stock prices.\nData by YCharts\n\nCan this pressure last a while longer? Yes, it can.\nCan Chinese stocks lose more value (as a result)? Yes, they can.\nDo we still see these stocks as a superb long-term purchase? Yes, we do.\n\nLately, we've sold/hedged most of our (direct) holdings - either by selling straight (e.g.,OTCPK:TCEHY) or by selling covered calls (e.g., JD(NASDAQ:JD), Baozun(NASDAQ:BZUN), BABA.) This year we have been primarily active in buying Chinese stocks (usually not straight rather) by selling PUTs.\nThis doesn't only give us an extra margin of safety, but it allows us to set our own entry price based on our estimates (similar to a price target, but the other way round.)\nIn this article, we want to focus on Pinduoduo (PDD), another one of our bullish Chinese positions, though one we have only recently added to our portfolios.\nA hyper-growth story at a discount\nBesides the typical pressure that Chinese equities face during this time, the Shanghai Consumer Council recently summoned Pinduoduo to urge the e-commerce giant to address problems regarding product quality, fake products, forced order cancellations, non-deliveries, and a price war over new user acquisition. Consequently, shares took another hit which we were happy to once again take advantage of.\nBut first, let's briefly discuss why Pinduoduo is greatly undervalued, considering its growth prospects.\nIn its most recent quarterly results, Pinduoduo delivered another spectacular report, posting revenue growth of 267% YoY to $3.38B, $180M ahead of estimates. The company is firing in all cylinders, growing its active buyers and MAUs (monthly active users) at explosive rates.\nThe fact that active buyers grew by 31% on an LTM basis is utterly impressive, considering that 628.2 million people were already using Pinduoduo during this time last year.\nSource:Q1 presentation\nAt its current growth rates, even if we were to assume a substantial deceleration, Pinduoduo would likely remain a hyper-growth stock for years to come. Investors often praise the American FAANMG club for their growth prospects, yet their growth can hardly compare to some of their Chinese counterparts, including Pinduoduo.\nTo examine the company's revenue growth prospects, let's take a look at the graph below, from which we can note two main points. Firstly, that analyst estimates indicate revenue growth of 33% and 34% in the coming years. However, this makes little to no sense based on the company's revenue growth trajectory. For context, Pinduoduo's 5-year sales growth CAGR is 112%. The second thing to note, which proves our skepticism towards these estimates simultaneously, is that analysts have been hiking their estimates multiple times within a very short period of time, dissolving their accuracy.\nData by YCharts\nWe believe that not only is Pinduoduo's dip over the past few months an excellent opportunity, but also the fact that the market is likely pricing the stock based on (what they seem to be ultra-soft) analyst estimates makes PDD's investment case even more attractive, considering the long term (mispricing) potential.\nAs you can see from the stock's forward P/S estimates (which are based on estimates which, as we mentioned, are not given credit), Pinduoduo is incredibly cheap. Even if we were to assume revenue growth of around 34%, (which we see as an ultra-soft estimate), a forward P/S of 9.64 would still make no sense.\nData by YCharts\nAt its current growth rates, that ratio could easily be double its current one. It would most likely be the case anyway if the company was based in the U.S.\nHowever, let's not be overly optimistic and estimate what the company could be worth today by assuming quite prudent, in our view, growth metrics. As you can see, we have embedded a swiftly decelerating revenues trajectory in the medium term (despite lacking evidence of such a potential growth deceleration.) We have also assumed an operating margin that gradually continues its currently expanding path, expecting it to \"terminally\" land at around 20% in the long term.\nSource:Alpha Spread\nWe have also forecasted a minimal to no CAPEX going forward, as has been the case historically due to the company's business model. Below you can see our estimated future cash flows and their present value.\nSource:Alpha Spread\nPlugging everything together along with Pinduoduo's current stock price, we come out with an intrinsic value per share of $191.1, implying an upside of 36.6% from its current levels.\nFrom another perspective, Pinduoduo's operating margin would have to be at around 9% in the long-term for its current price to be justified ceteris paribus, which we find quite unrealistic.\nSource:Alpha Spread\nHow we are playing Pinduoduo\nWhile we genuinely believe that the stock is undervalued, as we mentioned at the beginning of the article, we recognize the possibility that the stock can easily slide lower. Hence, we are increasing our margin of safety and reverse-setting our PT (setting our own entry price) in case that the stock keeps moving lower by selling PUTs.\nYou can see our open PUTs and when we issued their respective trading alerts in the table below:\n\n\n\nOption\nDate opened\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 120.00 P\n3/24/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 125.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 130.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 130.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 135.00 P\n3/22/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 140.00 P\n3/24/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n3/22/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 150.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 155.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\n\nWe continue to target net prices of <$115 and as high strikes as possible.

We need to see all sorts of technology stocks keep up with what I regard as a runaway industrial market,\" he said.\nNvidia is still dominating the semiconductor market. And in terms of diversifying, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s acquisition strategy has helped the firm branch into the automotive industry through high-profile partnerships through its NVIDIA drive network as well as data centers, aided by the acquisition of Mellanox, as well as AI technology through its anticipated takeover of Arm.\nWhile the semiconductor industry is certainly crowded, Nvidia has managed to set itself apart beyond its firm base in gaming and graphic chip dominance. As such, it might also be a perfect candidate for mention alongside the long-time tech leaders. Also, its market cap is a healthy $400+ billion, adding to its potential to fit with the rest of the group,according to TheStreet's Kevin Curran.\nNvidia is also among companies that have noted a degree of uncertainty in predicting the impact ofcryptocurrency mining on near-term sales.\n\"It's hard to estimate exactly how much and where crypto mining is being done. However, we can only assume that the vast majority of it is contributed by professional miners, especially when the amount of mining increases tremendously like it has,\" CEO Jensen Huang told investors on a conference call this past week.\nTheStreet's Jim Cramer noted in his dailyAction Alerts Plus rundownthis past week that while Nvidia has performed well and itsrecent 4-for-1 stock splitmakes sense, the link betweencryptocurrency mining and Nvidia’s performanceis not necessarily that strong.\nNvidia has submitted an application to Chinese competition regulators to review its proposed $40 billion takeover of the U.K. chip designer Arm, according to the Financial Times. The chip company announced the deal about eight months ago and said it expects to close the deal by next March.\nNvidia's application was made in recent weeks and sets in\nmotion a period of scrutiny that could take up to 18 months, according to Chinese antitrust lawyers, the Financial Times reported. In February,U.S. federal regulators opened an investigation into Nvidia's agreement to purchase Arm.\nMeanwhile, Broadcom (AVGO) -Get Report issued a bullish fiscal-third quarter revenue outlook and topped estimates in the second quarter onstrong demand for the company's semiconductors.\nThe company said it expects third-quarter revenue of about $6.75 billion, higher than expectations of $6.6 billion. In addition, the company estimated adjusted EBITDA would 60% of projected revenue, or about $4.05 billion, above estimates of $3.88 billion.\n“Due to the strength in demand for semiconductors across our multiple end markets, we delivered 20% year-over-year\nincrease in semiconductor revenue,” said CEO Hock Tan.\n“Our third-quarter outlook projects this year-over-year growth to sustain, as we continue to see strong demand from service providers and hypercloud.”\nCramer is watching the semiconductor capital equipment stocks closely, which he said: \"had let us down.\" \"There was a belief that there was a glut of certain kinds of chips,\" he added.\n\"And even though a lot of people were worried about the supply of chips, a lot of the smartest people were saying, listen, get out of the semiconductor-capital stocks and there isn't a glut. There is a glut developing of a certain kind and Applied Materials kind of straightened that out.\"\nHere is a list of the semiconductor stocks to watch and their performance by percentage change at the close of trading on Tuesday, June 8:\nNvidia\nLarge-cap tech stock Nvidia (NVDA) -Get Report is cruising higher.

(AMD) is a fast-growing semiconductor company that is gaining share in attractive markets such as data centers. The stock has, over the last couple of years, performed quite well, although shares have been moving sideways for the last couple of months. AMD should be able to grow its profits at an attractive pace in the coming years, but equity price gains may be less pronounced, as rapid ongoing growth is already priced in at current valuations.</p>\n<p><b>Will AMD Stock Rise Again?</b></p>\n<p>Those that bought AMD a couple of years ago have gotten used to a very strong performance from their investment, not only when it comes to AMD's operational progress, but also when it comes to share price gains. AMD does not pay any dividends, but massive price increases over the last five years have nevertheless made AMD a great investment for those that entered positions a couple of years ago - over the last five years, AMD rose by a massive 1,700%. In the more recent past, however, the performance has been less stellar:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d8264e3e12f4eac06390bc07bda75b0\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Data byYCharts</p>\n<p>Over the last six months, AMD is down 13%, while the broad market gained 15%. This underperformance over the last couple of months went hand in hand with a similar underperformance that can be seen in many other high-growth market darlings from 2020 and before, such as Tesla (TSLA), Netflix (NFLX), or Zoom Video (ZM). These stocks had all benefitted from multiple expansion during their upwards runs, and they are now consolidating while it seems like the market wants to wait for their business growth to merit more share price gains. Investors shouldn't expect another 1,000%+ price gain over the next five years from AMD, or anything close to that, but thanks to the fact that underlying growth remains intact, AMD stock should eventually start to rise again - although at a more moderate pace compared to the last couple of years.</p>\n<p><b>Is AMD A Good Long-Term Stock?</b></p>\n<p>Two things should be considered here - the company's growth outlook, and its valuation. AMD has delivered sizeable business growth in recent years, on the back of a combination of market share gains and overall market growth, as global chip demand continues to grow rapidly.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c0f56834396f2e4f29ae28d2599db27a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Data byYCharts</p>\n<p>AMD was able to grow its revenues by around 200% over the last five years while growing its margins significantly as well. Gross margins rose thanks to an improving portfolio mix with more higher-value products such as data center chips being sold. Operating margins, meanwhile, went from negative to positive thanks to the impact of gross margin expansion and tailwinds from operating leverage.</p>\n<p>Maintaining exceptionally high growth rates forever is not possible, as growth inevitably slows down once a company gets larger. AMD will thus, in all likelihood, not triple its revenue again over the next five years. But the company will see compelling business growth nevertheless, I believe. The data center market, for example, is forecasted to grow by 10% a year through 2025. Add in some market share gains, and AMD could very well be able to grow its revenue by 12%-15% in this segment. Over a five-year period, this would equate to revenue growth of around 70%-100%. This is less than AMD's growth in recent years, but still quite attractive. Add in some further improvements in AMD's margins, and net profits could grow considerably more than 100% over the next five years, and profit growth should remain attractive during the second half of the 2020s as well, I believe. This is due to the potential for more market share gains, as AMD's current market share is still rather small, and also due to the world's increasing hunger for all kinds of semiconductors, showcased by the currentglobal chip shortage. Add in loose monetary policy, economies reopening following the pandemic and corresponding economic growth, and the macro environment looks favorable for AMD and its peers. There is no guarantee for growth, of course, and investors should remember that growth projections in 2000 did not work out well - shares went down for well above a decade from that point. With its current product portfolio, which looks highly competitive tech-wise, and thanks to an accommodating macro-environment, AMD has a very solid outlook in what I deem a base case scenario, however. Due to the above-average valuation shares are trading at right now, investors may not see gains in the very near term, however. It seems very much possible that shares continue to move sideways for a while, as they have done over the last couple of months.</p>\n<p><b>What Is The AMD Stock Forecast For 2025?</b></p>\n<p>When trying to project what AMD's stock price in 2025 may look like, we have to make estimates for the company's profitability in that year, and for its valuation in 2025.</p>\n<p>AMD's earnings should grow meaningfully over the coming years, due to the macro tailwinds mentioned above, such as growing chip demand, but also due to company-specific factors. AMD has been highly successful with its EPYC processors in the past, and the third generation of that product line should allow AMD to gain further market share. 3rd generation EPYC processors, which use the Zen 3 architecture promise more power for data centers and are thus welcomed by large customers such as Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL), Cisco (CSCO), IBM (IBM), and many more.</p>\n<p>With its Ryzen series of desktop processors, AMD is also well-positioned for further market share gains in the gaming hardware market, which positions the company well for benefitting fromstrong growth in this industry.</p>\n<p>Last but not least, AMD's pending takeover of Xilinx (XLNX) should impact results positively once the takeover has closed. AMD states that this acquisition will be immediately accretive for margins, cash flows, and earnings per share. Once synergies are lifted, accretion should improve further a year or two from the closing date, which is why this acquisition will play a role in AMD's earnings growth in 2022 and 2023. It also expands AMD's addressable market further, which improves the long-term potential for the company in market segments such as data centers.</p>\n<p>It is not guaranteed that AMD's offerings will remain highly competitive forever, but at least for the foreseeable future, the company's product lineup looks strong and conductive for further market share gains. Add in operating leverage and improving gross margins thanks to a bigger portion of higher-value products being sold, and it is not surprising to see that analysts are expecting strong earnings growth from AMD in the coming years.</p>\n<p>Analysts are currently expecting earnings per share of $2.69 for 2022, and $3.35 for 2023. On top of that, the analyst community believes that AMD will be able to generate long-term EPS growth of 27% a year:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e1bd59fc6959c671a618b9749f5a0a43\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Data byYCharts</p>\n<p>When we assume that analysts are correct, then AMD's earnings per share would total $5.40 in 2025. Right now AMD trades at 37 this year's earnings, but it seems unlikely that this valuation will hold forever. Instead, as growth will inevitably slow down at one point, which will result in multiple compression, AMD's valuation will, I believe, be lower in 2025. Its peer Intel (INTC), for reference, trades at 12x this year's earnings.</p>\n<p>If AMD were to trade at 25x net profits in 2025, the mid-point between its current valuation and the current valuation of its more mature peer Intel, then AMD's shares would be valued at $135 in 2025. Relative to a current share price of $81, that would represent a compelling, but not extremely spectacular gain of 67% over the next 4.5 years (when we look at December 2025). On an annualized basis, this equates to a return of 12%. A low-double-digit return is attractive, but it seems pretty clear that this is nowhere as good as what investors have gotten over the last five years. It is, however, also possible that analysts are a little too optimistic with their estimates.</p>\n<p>Looking at a scenario where current EPS estimates for 2023 are 10% too high, and where EPS growth in 2024 and 2025 is 20% instead of 27%, we get to a price target of $110 in 2025, which would equate to annualized returns of 7%. One can, of course, also make more bullish assumptions about AMD's business growth or its valuation in 2025, but I feel that being somewhat conservatives with projections like these is prudent.</p>\n<p><b>Is AMD Stock A Buy Or Sell Now?</b></p>\n<p>Based on the scenarios laid out above, one could call AMD a solid buy for those with long-term investment horizons that do not mind the uncertainties, AMD's not very convincing past in 2000-2015, and the fact that AMD does not pay any dividends.</p>\n<p>For those looking for near-term upside, AMD may not be the best choice, however, as the current consolidation pattern, coupled with AMD's above-average valuation, at 37x this year's earnings, could limit AMD's share price upside over the coming months.</p>\n<p>It should also be considered that the vast semiconductor space offers many other potential candidates for exposure to this industry, and AMD surely is not the only stock with upside potential over the next couple of years.

(AMD) is a fast-growing semiconductor company that is gaining share in attractive markets such as data centers. The stock has, over the last couple of years, performed quite well, although shares have been moving sideways for the last couple of months. AMD should be able to grow its profits at an attractive pace in the coming years, but equity price gains may be less pronounced, as rapid ongoing growth is already priced in at current valuations.\nWill AMD Stock Rise Again?\nThose that bought AMD a couple of years ago have gotten used to a very strong performance from their investment, not only when it comes to AMD's operational progress, but also when it comes to share price gains. AMD does not pay any dividends, but massive price increases over the last five years have nevertheless made AMD a great investment for those that entered positions a couple of years ago - over the last five years, AMD rose by a massive 1,700%. In the more recent past, however, the performance has been less stellar:\nData byYCharts\nOver the last six months, AMD is down 13%, while the broad market gained 15%. This underperformance over the last couple of months went hand in hand with a similar underperformance that can be seen in many other high-growth market darlings from 2020 and before, such as Tesla (TSLA), Netflix (NFLX), or Zoom Video (ZM). These stocks had all benefitted from multiple expansion during their upwards runs, and they are now consolidating while it seems like the market wants to wait for their business growth to merit more share price gains. Investors shouldn't expect another 1,000%+ price gain over the next five years from AMD, or anything close to that, but thanks to the fact that underlying growth remains intact, AMD stock should eventually start to rise again - although at a more moderate pace compared to the last couple of years.\nIs AMD A Good Long-Term Stock?\nTwo things should be considered here - the company's growth outlook, and its valuation. AMD has delivered sizeable business growth in recent years, on the back of a combination of market share gains and overall market growth, as global chip demand continues to grow rapidly.\nData byYCharts\nAMD was able to grow its revenues by around 200% over the last five years while growing its margins significantly as well. Gross margins rose thanks to an improving portfolio mix with more higher-value products such as data center chips being sold. Operating margins, meanwhile, went from negative to positive thanks to the impact of gross margin expansion and tailwinds from operating leverage.\nMaintaining exceptionally high growth rates forever is not possible, as growth inevitably slows down once a company gets larger. AMD will thus, in all likelihood, not triple its revenue again over the next five years. But the company will see compelling business growth nevertheless, I believe. The data center market, for example, is forecasted to grow by 10% a year through 2025. Add in some market share gains, and AMD could very well be able to grow its revenue by 12%-15% in this segment. Over a five-year period, this would equate to revenue growth of around 70%-100%. This is less than AMD's growth in recent years, but still quite attractive. Add in some further improvements in AMD's margins, and net profits could grow considerably more than 100% over the next five years, and profit growth should remain attractive during the second half of the 2020s as well, I believe. This is due to the potential for more market share gains, as AMD's current market share is still rather small, and also due to the world's increasing hunger for all kinds of semiconductors, showcased by the currentglobal chip shortage. Add in loose monetary policy, economies reopening following the pandemic and corresponding economic growth, and the macro environment looks favorable for AMD and its peers. There is no guarantee for growth, of course, and investors should remember that growth projections in 2000 did not work out well - shares went down for well above a decade from that point. With its current product portfolio, which looks highly competitive tech-wise, and thanks to an accommodating macro-environment, AMD has a very solid outlook in what I deem a base case scenario, however. Due to the above-average valuation shares are trading at right now, investors may not see gains in the very near term, however. It seems very much possible that shares continue to move sideways for a while, as they have done over the last couple of months.\nWhat Is The AMD Stock Forecast For 2025?\nWhen trying to project what AMD's stock price in 2025 may look like, we have to make estimates for the company's profitability in that year, and for its valuation in 2025.\nAMD's earnings should grow meaningfully over the coming years, due to the macro tailwinds mentioned above, such as growing chip demand, but also due to company-specific factors.

But there are also fundamentally strong names where initiating a short position can be risky. These are the so called unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>True,&nbsp;Short squeeze rallies have delivered multi-fold returns for investors.<b>AMC Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMC</u></b>) is the recent case of a short squeeze rally. However, this does not change the fact that some stocks are worth going short. It’s very likely that AMC stock will witness an equally sharp correction.</p>\n<p>That’s not the case with unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>My focus is on four unshortable stocks where short interest as a percentage of free float is approximately 1%. Two of these stocks trade near all-time highs. The other two are in a consolidation mode and there seems to be a high probability of a breakout on the upside.</p>\n<p>The reasons for these stocks being unshortable are strong fundamentals, high growth and strong cash flows. Additionally, there are ample positive business growth catalysts on the horizon.</p>\n<p>Let’s take a deeper look into the reasons that make these stocks unshortable.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Nvidia</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVDA</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Target</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TGT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Shopify</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SHOP</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AAPL</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Nvidia (NVDA)</b></p>\n<p>NVDA stock is currently trading near 52-week highs. However, the short interest in the stock is just 1% of the free float. This is probably an indication of the point that NVDA stock is among the unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>From a fundamental perspective, Nvidia has been on a high growth trajectory. For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.</p>\n<p>In addition, Nvidia reported&nbsp;operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.</p>\n<p>In a recent news, Nvidia has asked&nbsp;Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition&nbsp;of&nbsp;<b>Arm</b>. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.</p>\n<p>With focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.</p>\n<p><b>Target (TGT)</b></p>\n<p>TGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.</p>\n<p>UBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning&nbsp;becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.</p>\n<p>As the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding&nbsp;$2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.</p>\n<p>Target has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company&nbsp;reported comparable sales growth of 22.9%&nbsp;on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.</p>\n<p>Clearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.</p>\n<p>From a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.</p>\n<p>Overall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.</p>\n<p><b>Shopify (SHOP)</b></p>\n<p>SHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>For the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that&nbsp;monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.</p>\n<p>With the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has&nbsp;expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.</p>\n<p>As of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.</p>\n<p>Overall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.</p>\n<p><b>Apple (AAPL)</b></p>\n<p>AAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation. With strong growth and a production innovation pipeline, it’s not surprising that short interest in AAPL stock is less than 1% of the free float.</p>\n<p>As I write,<i>Reuters</i>&nbsp;reports that Apple is in&nbsp;talks with Chinese manufacturers for a car battery factory&nbsp;in the U.S. The company seems to be gradually working towards its first electric vehicle. That’s likely to keep the markets excited.</p>\n<p>Apple has also witnessed&nbsp;strong growth in the wearables and services segment. Besides strong top-line growth, revenue is more diversified.

But there are also fundamentally strong names where initiating a short position can be risky. These are the so called unshortable stocks.\nTrue, Short squeeze rallies have delivered multi-fold returns for investors.AMC Entertainment(NYSE:AMC) is the recent case of a short squeeze rally. However, this does not change the fact that some stocks are worth going short. It’s very likely that AMC stock will witness an equally sharp correction.\nThat’s not the case with unshortable stocks.\nMy focus is on four unshortable stocks where short interest as a percentage of free float is approximately 1%. Two of these stocks trade near all-time highs. The other two are in a consolidation mode and there seems to be a high probability of a breakout on the upside.\nThe reasons for these stocks being unshortable are strong fundamentals, high growth and strong cash flows. Additionally, there are ample positive business growth catalysts on the horizon.\nLet’s take a deeper look into the reasons that make these stocks unshortable.\n\nNvidia(NASDAQ:NVDA)\nTarget(NYSE:TGT)\nShopify(NYSE:SHOP)\nApple(NASDAQ:AAPL)\n\nNvidia (NVDA)\nNVDA stock is currently trading near 52-week highs. However, the short interest in the stock is just 1% of the free float. This is probably an indication of the point that NVDA stock is among the unshortable stocks.\nFrom a fundamental perspective, Nvidia has been on a high growth trajectory. For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.\nIn addition, Nvidia reported operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.\nIn a recent news, Nvidia has asked Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition of Arm. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.\nWith focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.\nTarget (TGT)\nTGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.\nUBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.\nAs the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding $2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.\nTarget has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company reported comparable sales growth of 22.9% on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.\nClearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.\nFrom a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.\nOverall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.\nShopify (SHOP)\nSHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.\nFor the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.\nWith the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.\nAs of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.\nOverall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.\nApple (AAPL)\nAAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation. With strong growth and a production innovation pipeline, it’s not surprising that short interest in AAPL stock is less than 1% of the free float.\nAs I write,Reuters reports that Apple is in talks with Chinese manufacturers for a car battery factory in the U.S. The company seems to be gradually working towards its first electric vehicle. That’s likely to keep the markets excited.\nApple has also witnessed strong growth in the wearables and services segment. Besides strong top-line growth, revenue is more diversified. At the same time, iPhone sales are likely to remain robust with 5G being a key growth driver.\nApple’s cash glut also implies sustained value creation through share repurchase and possibly higher dividends. Of course, the cash buffer gives the company ample headroom to invest in product innovation and possible acquisitions.\nOverall, as strong growth sustains, it’s too risky to short AAPL stock. On the contrary, current levels look attractive for considering some long-term exposure.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":396,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185729263,"gmtCreate":1623674455052,"gmtModify":1704208324264,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"In Lisa Su we trust!

This put AMD back in the game. AMD’s EPYC series of processors for servers has been endorsed by broad usage among the main cloud providers — including Amazon Inc.,Alphabet Inc.,Microsoft Corp.,Oracle Corp.&nbsp;and Tencent Holdings Ltd.AMD’s Radeon GPUs for gaming hardware and its Ryzen line of chips used in PCs and laptops are equally successful.</p>\n<p>Besides better chip design, AMD has pulled ahead by drawing on advanced manufacturing capabilities of Taiwan Semiconductor&nbsp;Manufacturing Co.

It’s a bet on the increasing complexity of artificial intelligence and big data analytics. And its GPU chips give Nvidia a run for the money. That makes AMD a play on the new Xbox and Sony PlayStation console upgrade cycle and the potential release of a new Nintendo Switch later this year. AMD is also now a serious contender in PCs and notebooks.</p>\n<p>“Our goal at AMD is to really be the leader in the high-performance computing wave,” says Su.</p>\n<p>She’s getting her way, and you can see the success in the numbers. First-quarter sales grew 93% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. AMD guided for 50% sales growth for the year, up from prior guidance of 37% growth.</p>\n<p>“We believe this guidance should be easily attainable, particularly as Intel deals with manufacturing challenges,” says Morningstar analyst Abhinav Davuluri.</p>\n<p>In CPUs, sales are growing faster than those of the overall industry, which tells us AMD is gaining share from competitors.</p>\n<p>“We expect continued share growth through the balance of the year and into 2022,” says Goldman Sachs analyst Toshiya Hari, who has a buy rating and a $106 price target on AMD. The chip company is on Goldman’s “conviction list” of highly favored companies.</p>\n<p>Here’s how AMD stacks up against competitors in terms of growth in the most recent quarter, profit margins and valuation:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc890546f0d4079834223660e88bc00d\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"387\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Cash and cash flow</b></p>\n<p>Big cash positions and solid cash flow are positives for investors because they give companies freedom that comes from reliance on banks for financing. Strong cash positions also support investor-friendly moves, such as buybacks and dividends.</p>\n<p>Thanks to all the growth, AMD’s cash position rose sharply last year to $2.3 billion, from $1.5 billion in 2019. AMD doesn’t pay a dividend, but its board recently approved a large $4 billion share repurchase. As the company’s first big return of cash to shareholders, this represents about 4% of AMD’s market capitalization. It also signals the company’s confidence in its business and ability to continue generating solid free cash flow despite rising concerns about intensifying competition, says Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore.</p>\n<p>Here’s a look at AMD’s cash position and cash flow&nbsp; growth, relative to competitors. The numbers for Marvell Technology Inc.&nbsp;are through Jan. 30, 2021. The rest are for the first quarter:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/798ea9650ce6e4247ba91b6912e48a82\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Global reach</b></p>\n<p>AMD books sales in many regions. That’s a positive when global growth is as strong as it is now — lifted by $30 trillion in fiscal and monetary stimulus worldwide. Big exposure to China could be a risk because of U.S.-China tensions, but this issue seems to be diminishing a bit under President Biden, at least so far.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04e42a7c55f914ecd7ddb2cbf8562253\" tg-width=\"1259\" tg-height=\"772\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Stock valuation and performance</b></p>\n<p>By most measures, AMD is the second-priciest stock in its group. But given the growth, it’s justified.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b26407edc4248424b878d3024bb9ac2\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"550\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Wall Street’s opinion</b></p>\n<p>As a group, Wall Street analysts are predicting the biggest gains for AMD, among all the companies in its space. It’s also notable that only 61% of analysts have a buy rating, lower than the percentages for Nvidia, Broadcom Inc.,Marvell and Analog Devices Inc..For investors, this is a positive because it tells us there’s more room for sell-side analysts to turn bullish and drive their clients into the name.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/995f76673215ab81971fbc2e8ace0641\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"551\"><span>(FACTSET)</span></p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>One big risk for AMD is that Intel stages a comeback, notes Tony Wang, a tech analyst at T. Rowe Price. Intel has done so before. But AMD still has a few tricks up its sleeve.</p>\n<p>It recently launched a more advanced version of its EPYC processor, codenamed Milan. This line of server chips will ramp up sales in the second half of this year. AMD is making the leap to even more efficient 5 nanometer production with a line of chips dubbed Genoa, slated for release in 2022. These two rollouts will allow AMD to continue its market-share gains against competitors including Intel, says Jefferies analyst Mark&nbsp;Lipacis — one reason he has a “buy” rating and a $110 price target on the stock.</p>\n<p>AMD is also rolling out next-generation GPUs based on its Compute DNA (CDNA)&nbsp;chip architecture, for use in data centers. And AMD’s merger with Xilinx Inc.&nbsp;later this year should help AMD produce even more sophisticated chips by incorporating Xilinx’s field-programmable gate array (FPGA) capabilities into its chip designs. FPGA gives customers more leeway to customize chips for their own needs.</p>\n<p>Other risks include the cyclical nature of the chip industry and the unpredictable demand from consumers and companies as economic growth rates change. One more threat is the broader adoption of competing chips based on ARM (advanced RISC machines) technology.</p>\n<p><b>Important dates</b></p>\n<p><b>July 26:</b>Second-quarter earnings release.</p>\n<p><b>Oct. 25:</b>Third-quarter earnings release.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>AMD’s stock has been left behind, but not for long — here’s why</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\">\nAMD’s stock has been left behind, but not for long — here’s why\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-14 11:16 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/amds-stock-has-been-left-behind-but-not-for-long-heres-why-11623343634?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Advanced Micro Devices has a slew of new cutting-edge products, not to mention a key acquisition, to accelerate growth.\n(GETTY IMAGES)\nTechnology as a sector still looks like a buy after a recent ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/amds-stock-has-been-left-behind-but-not-for-long-heres-why-11623343634?mod=home-page\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMD":"美国超微公司"},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/amds-stock-has-been-left-behind-but-not-for-long-heres-why-11623343634?mod=home-page","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1163127718","content_text":"Advanced Micro Devices has a slew of new cutting-edge products, not to mention a key acquisition, to accelerate growth.\n(GETTY IMAGES)\nTechnology as a sector still looks like a buy after a recent rebound, but one chip stock stands out in particular.\nWhile the iShares PHLX Semiconductor ETF and Nvidia Corp.NVDAhave recovered from their May swoons, Advanced Micro Devices Inc. hasn’t yet fully rebounded.

That makes AMD a play on the new Xbox and Sony PlayStation console upgrade cycle and the potential release of a new Nintendo Switch later this year. AMD is also now a serious contender in PCs and notebooks.\n“Our goal at AMD is to really be the leader in the high-performance computing wave,” says Su.\nShe’s getting her way, and you can see the success in the numbers. First-quarter sales grew 93% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. AMD guided for 50% sales growth for the year, up from prior guidance of 37% growth.\n“We believe this guidance should be easily attainable, particularly as Intel deals with manufacturing challenges,” says Morningstar analyst Abhinav Davuluri.\nIn CPUs, sales are growing faster than those of the overall industry, which tells us AMD is gaining share from competitors.\n“We expect continued share growth through the balance of the year and into 2022,” says Goldman Sachs analyst Toshiya Hari, who has a buy rating and a $106 price target on AMD. The chip company is on Goldman’s “conviction list” of highly favored companies.\nHere’s how AMD stacks up against competitors in terms of growth in the most recent quarter, profit margins and valuation:\n(FACTSET)\nCash and cash flow\nBig cash positions and solid cash flow are positives for investors because they give companies freedom that comes from reliance on banks for financing. Strong cash positions also support investor-friendly moves, such as buybacks and dividends.\nThanks to all the growth, AMD’s cash position rose sharply last year to $2.3 billion, from $1.5 billion in 2019. AMD doesn’t pay a dividend, but its board recently approved a large $4 billion share repurchase. As the company’s first big return of cash to shareholders, this represents about 4% of AMD’s market capitalization. It also signals the company’s confidence in its business and ability to continue generating solid free cash flow despite rising concerns about intensifying competition, says Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore.\nHere’s a look at AMD’s cash position and cash flow  growth, relative to competitors. The numbers for Marvell Technology Inc. are through Jan. 30, 2021. The rest are for the first quarter:\n(FACTSET)\nGlobal reach\nAMD books sales in many regions. That’s a positive when global growth is as strong as it is now — lifted by $30 trillion in fiscal and monetary stimulus worldwide. Big exposure to China could be a risk because of U.S.-China tensions, but this issue seems to be diminishing a bit under President Biden, at least so far.\n(FACTSET)\nStock valuation and performance\nBy most measures, AMD is the second-priciest stock in its group. But given the growth, it’s justified.\n(FACTSET)\nWall Street’s opinion\nAs a group, Wall Street analysts are predicting the biggest gains for AMD, among all the companies in its space. It’s also notable that only 61% of analysts have a buy rating, lower than the percentages for Nvidia, Broadcom Inc.,Marvell and Analog Devices Inc..For investors, this is a positive because it tells us there’s more room for sell-side analysts to turn bullish and drive their clients into the name.\n(FACTSET)\nRisks\nOne big risk for AMD is that Intel stages a comeback, notes Tony Wang, a tech analyst at T. Rowe Price. Intel has done so before. But AMD still has a few tricks up its sleeve.\nIt recently launched a more advanced version of its EPYC processor, codenamed Milan. This line of server chips will ramp up sales in the second half of this year. AMD is making the leap to even more efficient 5 nanometer production with a line of chips dubbed Genoa, slated for release in 2022. These two rollouts will allow AMD to continue its market-share gains against competitors including Intel, says Jefferies analyst Mark Lipacis — one reason he has a “buy” rating and a $110 price target on the stock.\nAMD is also rolling out next-generation GPUs based on its Compute DNA (CDNA) chip architecture, for use in data centers. And AMD’s merger with Xilinx Inc. later this year should help AMD produce even more sophisticated chips by incorporating Xilinx’s field-programmable gate array (FPGA) capabilities into its chip designs. FPGA gives customers more leeway to customize chips for their own needs.\nOther risks include the cyclical nature of the chip industry and the unpredictable demand from consumers and companies as economic growth rates change. One more threat is the broader adoption of competing chips based on ARM (advanced RISC machines) technology.\nImportant dates\nJuly 26:Second-quarter earnings release.\nOct. 25:Third-quarter earnings release.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":484,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184176077,"gmtCreate":1623693844699,"gmtModify":1704208920710,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"That's great","listText":"That's great","text":"That's great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184176077","repostId":"1109202972","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1109202972","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623682114,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1109202972?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-14 22:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Google, Facebook, Amazon and more urge SEC to mandate regular climate reports","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1109202972","media":"cnbc","summary":"A group of seven tech companies urged the Securities and Exchange Commission to require businesses t","content":"<div>\n<p>A group of seven tech companies urged the Securities and Exchange Commission to require businesses to regularly disclose climate-related matters to their shareholders.\nIn aletterto SEC Chairman Gary ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/14/google-facebook-amazon-and-more-urge-sec-to-mandate-regular-climate-reports.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Fool","summary":"Don't underestimate JD and these two other e-commerce companies.","content":"<p><b>Alibaba</b> (NYSE:BABA), China's top e-commerce and cloud company, lost nearly 10% of its value from January to late May, underperforming many industry peers. An antitrust probe in China, tighter auditing standards in the U.S., and the rotation from growth to value stocks all weighed down its stock.</p>\n<p>Alibaba's stock might look cheap at 18 times forward earnings, but analysts still expect its earnings to dip 3% this year as it absorbs a record $2.75 billion antitrust fine. It will also need to halt its exclusive deals with big brands, which could soften its defenses against smaller e-commerce marketplaces.</p>\n<p>And that's not all. Alibaba could be forced to divest its media assets and share its user data with the government, while its fintech affiliate, Ant Group, will be more tightly regulated as a financial holding company.&nbsp;Alibaba might weather all these headwinds and recover over the long term, but its stock could remain dead money for the foreseeable future.</p>\n<p>Instead of betting on Alibaba's potential comeback, investors should consider buying shares of Chinese tech stocks that aren't in regulatory crosshairs. These three e-commerce companies fit the bill: <b>JD.com </b>(NASDAQ:JD), <b>Pinduoduo</b> (NASDAQ:PDD), and <b>Baozun</b> (NASDAQ:BZUN).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F628813%2Fgettyimages-1170687091.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. JD.com</h2>\n<p>JD.com is China's second-largest e-commerce company after Alibaba. However, it's actually the country's largest direct retailer, since it generates most of its revenue from its first-party marketplace.</p>\n<p>Unlike Alibaba, which generates most of its e-commerce revenue from third-party sellers on Taobao and Tmall, JD takes on its own inventories and fulfills orders with its logistics network. This business model is more capital-intensive, but it shields its buyers from fake products.</p>\n<p>Alibaba's co-founder, Jack Ma, once said JD's lower-margin business model would end in a \"tragedy,\" but economies of scale gradually kicked in and enabled it to generate consistent profits. JD's logistics arm also balanced out its costs by offering its services to third-party customers.</p>\n<p>JD's revenue and&nbsp;adjusted earnings rose 29% and 57%, respectively, in 2020. It ended the first quarter with nearly 500 million annual active consumers, and analysts expect its revenue and earnings to grow another 26% and 13%, respectively, this year.</p>\n<p>JD doesn't face as much regulatory heat as Alibaba, it margins are expanding, and the stock trades at just 28 times forward earnings estimates and less than 1 times estimated sales.</p>\n<h2>2. Pinduoduo</h2>\n<p>Pinduoduo is the third-largest e-commerce player in China in terms of annual revenue, but in terms of total shoppers, it's actually bigger than JD, with 628 million annual active buyers. Like Alibaba, Pinduoduo generates most of its revenue through listing fees and ads for third-party merchants.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/864f7f52e87d48721cc5ea7d15e3b4b0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Pinduoduo carved out a niche with its discount marketplace, which encouraged shoppers to team up for group discounts. That strategy, which relied heavily on users sharing links across social networks, caught on across China's lower-tier cities.</p>\n<p>Pinduoduo subsequently expanded into China's top-tier cities and partnered with bigger brands to challenge Alibaba and JD. It also gained an early mover's advantage in online agriculture by enabling over 12 million farmers to directly ship their produce to customers.</p>\n<p>Pinduoduo's revenue surged 97% in&nbsp;2020, then soared another 239% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2021. Analysts expect its revenue to grow 92% for the full year. Those estimates are impressive for a stock that trades at about eight times this year's sales.</p>\n<p>Pinduoduo is still unprofitable due to its aggressive discounts, subsidies for sellers, and the expansion of its logistics network. However, its adjusted operating and net losses still narrowed year-over-year last quarter, and it could gradually inch toward profitability as it increases its scale.</p>\n<h2>3. Baozun</h2>\n<p>Baozun is sometimes called the \"<b>Shopify</b> of China\", but that comparison is misleading. Unlike Shopify, which provides self-serve e-commerce services to smaller businesses, Baozun mainly provides end-to-end e-commerce solutions to large international companies.</p>\n<p>It can be difficult for large U.S. companies to build Chinese websites, launch marketing campaigns, and set up e-commerce marketplaces, so Baozun is a \"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-stop shop\" that handles all those needs. It also helps companies integrate their online marketplaces with Tmall, JD, and Pinduoduo, which makes it a well-balanced play on China's booming e-commerce sector.</p>\n<p>Baozun's business model is capital-intensive, but it expanded its margins in recent years by pivoting from a \"distribution-based\" model, in which it directly fulfilled orders, to a \"non-distribution\" based model, which allows its clients to directly ship their products to their customers.</p>\n<p>Baozun's revenue and adjusted earnings increased 22% and 50%, respectively, in 2020. Ninety-two percent of its GMV (gross merchandise volume) came from its non-distribution-based business. Analysts expect its revenue and adjusted earnings to rise 35% and 5%, respectively, this year.</p>\n<p>This oft-overlooked stock trades at just 19 times forward earnings and 1.5 times this year's sales, which might make it an undervalued growth stock if investors fall in love with Chinese tech companies again.</p>","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>Forget Alibaba, These 3 Chinese Tech Stocks Are Better Buys</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\">\nForget Alibaba, These 3 Chinese Tech Stocks Are Better Buys\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-03 23:32 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/03/forget-alibaba-these-3-chinese-tech-stocks-are-bet/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Alibaba (NYSE:BABA), China's top e-commerce and cloud company, lost nearly 10% of its value from January to late May, underperforming many industry peers.

It ended the first quarter with nearly 500 million annual active consumers, and analysts expect its revenue and earnings to grow another 26% and 13%, respectively, this year.\nJD doesn't face as much regulatory heat as Alibaba, it margins are expanding, and the stock trades at just 28 times forward earnings estimates and less than 1 times estimated sales.\n2. Pinduoduo\nPinduoduo is the third-largest e-commerce player in China in terms of annual revenue, but in terms of total shoppers, it's actually bigger than JD, with 628 million annual active buyers. Like Alibaba, Pinduoduo generates most of its revenue through listing fees and ads for third-party merchants.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPinduoduo carved out a niche with its discount marketplace, which encouraged shoppers to team up for group discounts. That strategy, which relied heavily on users sharing links across social networks, caught on across China's lower-tier cities.\nPinduoduo subsequently expanded into China's top-tier cities and partnered with bigger brands to challenge Alibaba and JD. It also gained an early mover's advantage in online agriculture by enabling over 12 million farmers to directly ship their produce to customers.\nPinduoduo's revenue surged 97% in 2020, then soared another 239% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2021. Analysts expect its revenue to grow 92% for the full year. Those estimates are impressive for a stock that trades at about eight times this year's sales.\nPinduoduo is still unprofitable due to its aggressive discounts, subsidies for sellers, and the expansion of its logistics network. However, its adjusted operating and net losses still narrowed year-over-year last quarter, and it could gradually inch toward profitability as it increases its scale.\n3. Baozun\nBaozun is sometimes called the \"Shopify of China\", but that comparison is misleading. Unlike Shopify, which provides self-serve e-commerce services to smaller businesses, Baozun mainly provides end-to-end e-commerce solutions to large international companies.\nIt can be difficult for large U.S. companies to build Chinese websites, launch marketing campaigns, and set up e-commerce marketplaces, so Baozun is a \"one-stop shop\" that handles all those needs. It also helps companies integrate their online marketplaces with Tmall, JD, and Pinduoduo, which makes it a well-balanced play on China's booming e-commerce sector.\nBaozun's business model is capital-intensive, but it expanded its margins in recent years by pivoting from a \"distribution-based\" model, in which it directly fulfilled orders, to a \"non-distribution\" based model, which allows its clients to directly ship their products to their customers.\nBaozun's revenue and adjusted earnings increased 22% and 50%, respectively, in 2020. Ninety-two percent of its GMV (gross merchandise volume) came from its non-distribution-based business. Analysts expect its revenue and adjusted earnings to rise 35% and 5%, respectively, this year.\nThis oft-overlooked stock trades at just 19 times forward earnings and 1.5 times this year's sales, which might make it an undervalued growth stock if investors fall in love with Chinese tech companies again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":340,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185716817,"gmtCreate":1623673160539,"gmtModify":1704208288540,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Going up!","listText":"Going up!","text":"Going up!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185716817","repostId":"1174294980","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1174294980","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622795794,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1174294980?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-04 16:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Pinduoduo: Fastening Our Seatbelts Before The Takeoff","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1174294980","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nPinduoduo's price has faced increased pressure lately along with the rest of its Chinese pe","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Pinduoduo's price has faced increased pressure lately along with the rest of its Chinese peers.</li>\n <li>The company continues snowballing, with analyst estimates hardly reflecting its current growth trajectory.</li>\n <li>The stock remains substantially undervalued even by utilizing prudent growth metrics.</li>\n <li>We continue building our position by selling PUTs, therefore increasing our margin of safety and setting a lower average buying price before the stock's (eventual) takeoff towards its fair price.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/545e2c2f7b0bd637a8869f73f02365cd\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"733\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Photo by ipopba/iStock via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Chinese equities: The pressure remains</b></p>\n<p>A little over a month ago, we&nbsp;chose&nbsp;Alibaba (BABA) as our top Consumer Discretionary pick moving forward into the year.

Firstly, that analyst estimates indicate revenue growth of 33% and 34% in the coming years. However, this makes little to no sense based on the company's revenue growth trajectory. For context, Pinduoduo's 5-year sales growth CAGR is 112%. The second thing to note, which proves our skepticism towards these estimates simultaneously, is that analysts have been hiking their estimates multiple times within a very short period of time, dissolving their accuracy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5acf69f701dc45d5e224085c63f54438\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"436\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>We believe that not only is Pinduoduo's dip over the past few months an excellent opportunity, but also the fact that the market is likely pricing the stock based on (what they seem to be ultra-soft) analyst estimates makes PDD's investment case even more attractive, considering the long term (mispricing) potential.</p>\n<p>As you can see from the stock's forward P/S estimates (which are based on estimates which, as we mentioned, are not given credit), Pinduoduo is incredibly cheap.

As you can see, we have embedded a swiftly decelerating revenues trajectory in the medium term (despite lacking evidence of such a potential growth deceleration.)

Obviously, the two parties have different reasons and mindsets, but for us (investors), the outcome is similar - lower stock prices.\nData by YCharts\n\nCan this pressure last a while longer? Yes, it can.\nCan Chinese stocks lose more value (as a result)? Yes, they can.\nDo we still see these stocks as a superb long-term purchase? Yes, we do.\n\nLately, we've sold/hedged most of our (direct) holdings - either by selling straight (e.g.,OTCPK:TCEHY) or by selling covered calls (e.g., JD(NASDAQ:JD), Baozun(NASDAQ:BZUN), BABA.) This year we have been primarily active in buying Chinese stocks (usually not straight rather) by selling PUTs.\nThis doesn't only give us an extra margin of safety, but it allows us to set our own entry price based on our estimates (similar to a price target, but the other way round.)\nIn this article, we want to focus on Pinduoduo (PDD), another one of our bullish Chinese positions, though one we have only recently added to our portfolios.\nA hyper-growth story at a discount\nBesides the typical pressure that Chinese equities face during this time, the Shanghai Consumer Council recently summoned Pinduoduo to urge the e-commerce giant to address problems regarding product quality, fake products, forced order cancellations, non-deliveries, and a price war over new user acquisition. Consequently, shares took another hit which we were happy to once again take advantage of.\nBut first, let's briefly discuss why Pinduoduo is greatly undervalued, considering its growth prospects.\nIn its most recent quarterly results, Pinduoduo delivered another spectacular report, posting revenue growth of 267% YoY to $3.38B, $180M ahead of estimates. The company is firing in all cylinders, growing its active buyers and MAUs (monthly active users) at explosive rates.\nThe fact that active buyers grew by 31% on an LTM basis is utterly impressive, considering that 628.2 million people were already using Pinduoduo during this time last year.\nSource:Q1 presentation\nAt its current growth rates, even if we were to assume a substantial deceleration, Pinduoduo would likely remain a hyper-growth stock for years to come.

Hence, we are increasing our margin of safety and reverse-setting our PT (setting our own entry price) in case that the stock keeps moving lower by selling PUTs.\nYou can see our open PUTs and when we issued their respective trading alerts in the table below:\n\n\n\nOption\nDate opened\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 120.00 P\n3/24/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 125.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 130.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 130.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 135.00 P\n3/22/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 140.00 P\n3/24/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n5/10/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n3/22/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 145.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 150.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\nPDD 01/21/2022 155.00 P\n4/20/2021\n\n\n\nWe continue to target net prices of <$115 and as high strikes as possible. We've also used the low 120-strike, not because we've changed our strategy, rather because we've decided to take what the market gives, and PDD for <$100 is a true bargain.\nWe might end up making less on this option, monetary-wise, if PDD rises to even (as low as) $150, but the annualized yield is tempting enough not to pass on these options too (against the relatively low risk we see at this <$100 level.)\nThe stock, even now, is still trading above the maximum net price that we might pay, even if all PUT options that we've sold will get assigned to us. We're willing to sell higher strikes (than market price) as long as the net price we're getting (upon assignment) would be <-$115.\nWe intend to keep showing the stock love, and we will continue to build this (future) position. When we become shareholders, it would be for an average price that would be <$110, for a stock that we see 50% upside to (from <$110), at the very minimum.\nBelow you can see the possible scenarios out of selling our latest PUT options (included in the table above), for which we issued a trading alert on May 10th.\n\nSELL (to open) PDD 01/21/2022 125.00 PUT @ $23.50\n\nSource: Author\n\nSELL (to open) PDD 01/21/2022 130.00 PUT @ $27.00\n\nSource: Author\n\nSELL (to open) PDD 01/21/2022 145.00 PUT @ $37.60\n\nSource: Author","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":413,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185711208,"gmtCreate":1623673069604,"gmtModify":1704208286106,"author":{"id":"3583669366978952","authorId":"3583669366978952","name":"ttm17396","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583669366978952","authorIdStr":"3583669366978952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Agree.buy buy buy","listText":"Agree.buy buy buy","text":"Agree.buy buy buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185711208","repostId":"1163875762","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1163875762","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623242261,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163875762?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-09 20:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Semiconductor Watchlist: Jim Cramer Says to Own Nvidia, AMD and Broadcom","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163875762","media":"The Street","summary":"See buy or sell recommendations for AMD, Applied Materials, Qualcomm, NXP, Broadcom, Taiwan Semicond","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>See buy or sell recommendations for AMD, Applied Materials, Qualcomm, NXP, Broadcom, Taiwan Semiconductor, and more semiconductor stocks.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>China's memory chip makers are pushing into the lower end of the market even as the country faces an increasingly steep uphill battle to achieve its self-sufficiency goals amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and a global semiconductor shortage that's expected to run into next year,according to South China Morning Post.</p>\n<p>Yangtze YTMC and Changxin Memory Technologies represent a new disruptive force in the sector and are expected to increase global capacity by 29 percent between 2020 and 2022, economists from investment bank Natixis said on Wednesday.</p>\n<p>TheStreet's Jim Cramer is eyeing Applied Materials&nbsp;(<b>AMAT</b>) -Get Report&nbsp;and other semiconductor capital equipment stocks. \"They haven't let us down,\"Cramer said&nbsp;in a conversation with TheStreet's Katherine Ross. \"When you get that group going, that's the best leadership group there is,\" he added.</p>\n<p>Cramer also said Monday that the key to the market for him is still the Nasdaq. \"We need to see Advanced Micro Devices&nbsp;(<b>AMD</b>) -Get Report&nbsp;not get beaten down by Nvidia&nbsp;(<b>NVDA</b>) -Get Report...

AMD will thus, in all likelihood, not triple its revenue again over the next five years. But the company will see compelling business growth nevertheless, I believe. The data center market, for example, is forecasted to grow by 10% a year through 2025. Add in some market share gains, and AMD could very well be able to grow its revenue by 12%-15% in this segment. Over a five-year period, this would equate to revenue growth of around 70%-100%. This is less than AMD's growth in recent years, but still quite attractive. Add in some further improvements in AMD's margins, and net profits could grow considerably more than 100% over the next five years, and profit growth should remain attractive during the second half of the 2020s as well, I believe. This is due to the potential for more market share gains, as AMD's current market share is still rather small, and also due to the world's increasing hunger for all kinds of semiconductors, showcased by the currentglobal chip shortage. Add in loose monetary policy, economies reopening following the pandemic and corresponding economic growth, and the macro environment looks favorable for AMD and its peers. There is no guarantee for growth, of course, and investors should remember that growth projections in 2000 did not work out well - shares went down for well above a decade from that point. With its current product portfolio, which looks highly competitive tech-wise, and thanks to an accommodating macro-environment, AMD has a very solid outlook in what I deem a base case scenario, however. Due to the above-average valuation shares are trading at right now, investors may not see gains in the very near term, however. It seems very much possible that shares continue to move sideways for a while, as they have done over the last couple of months.</p>\n<p><b>What Is The AMD Stock Forecast For 2025?</b></p>\n<p>When trying to project what AMD's stock price in 2025 may look like, we have to make estimates for the company's profitability in that year, and for its valuation in 2025.</p>\n<p>AMD's earnings should grow meaningfully over the coming years, due to the macro tailwinds mentioned above, such as growing chip demand, but also due to company-specific factors. AMD has been highly successful with its EPYC processors in the past, and the third generation of that product line should allow AMD to gain further market share. 3rd generation EPYC processors, which use the Zen 3 architecture promise more power for data centers and are thus welcomed by large customers such as Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL), Cisco (CSCO), IBM (IBM), and many more.</p>\n<p>With its Ryzen series of desktop processors, AMD is also well-positioned for further market share gains in the gaming hardware market, which positions the company well for benefitting fromstrong growth in this industry.</p>\n<p>Last but not least, AMD's pending takeover of Xilinx (XLNX) should impact results positively once the takeover has closed. AMD states that this acquisition will be immediately accretive for margins, cash flows, and earnings per share. Once synergies are lifted, accretion should improve further a year or two from the closing date, which is why this acquisition will play a role in AMD's earnings growth in 2022 and 2023.

Right now AMD trades at 37 this year's earnings, but it seems unlikely that this valuation will hold forever. Instead, as growth will inevitably slow down at one point, which will result in multiple compression, AMD's valuation will, I believe, be lower in 2025.

Relative to a current share price of $81, that would represent a compelling, but not extremely spectacular gain of 67% over the next 4.5 years (when we look at December 2025). On an annualized basis, this equates to a return of 12%. A low-double-digit return is attractive, but it seems pretty clear that this is nowhere as good as what investors have gotten over the last five years.

One can, of course, also make more bullish assumptions about AMD's business growth or its valuation in 2025, but I feel that being somewhat conservatives with projections like these is prudent.</p>\n<p><b>Is AMD Stock A Buy Or Sell Now?</b></p>\n<p>Based on the scenarios laid out above, one could call AMD a solid buy for those with long-term investment horizons that do not mind the uncertainties, AMD's not very convincing past in 2000-2015, and the fact that AMD does not pay any dividends.</p>\n<p>For those looking for near-term upside, AMD may not be the best choice, however, as the current consolidation pattern, coupled with AMD's above-average valuation, at 37x this year's earnings, could limit AMD's share price upside over the coming months.</p>\n<p>It should also be considered that the vast semiconductor space offers many other potential candidates for exposure to this industry, and AMD surely is not the only stock with upside potential over the next couple of years. Still, for those looking for a higher-growth name in the space and that do not mind paying up for growth, AMD seems like a solid choice when one invests with a goal of holding shares for several years.</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>AMD Stock Forecast: What Might The Price Be By 2025</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\">\nAMD Stock Forecast: What Might The Price Be By 2025\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-11 17:17 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434071-amd-stock-forecast-price-by-2025><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAMD has delivered outsized returns over the last five years, but shares have underperformed the market in 2021 so far.\nThe current consolidation pattern could remain in place for a while, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434071-amd-stock-forecast-price-by-2025\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMD":"美国超微公司"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434071-amd-stock-forecast-price-by-2025","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1119906239","content_text":"Summary\n\nAMD has delivered outsized returns over the last five years, but shares have underperformed the market in 2021 so far.\nThe current consolidation pattern could remain in place for a while, until business growth catches up to AMD's above-average valuation.\nThanks to a solid long-term growth outlook, shares of AMD have significant upside potential through 2025, but investors shouldn't expect returns like the ones seen since 2016.\n\nArticle Thesis\nAdvanced Micro Devices, Inc.

One can, of course, also make more bullish assumptions about AMD's business growth or its valuation in 2025, but I feel that being somewhat conservatives with projections like these is prudent.\nIs AMD Stock A Buy Or Sell Now?\nBased on the scenarios laid out above, one could call AMD a solid buy for those with long-term investment horizons that do not mind the uncertainties, AMD's not very convincing past in 2000-2015, and the fact that AMD does not pay any dividends.\nFor those looking for near-term upside, AMD may not be the best choice, however, as the current consolidation pattern, coupled with AMD's above-average valuation, at 37x this year's earnings, could limit AMD's share price upside over the coming months.\nIt should also be considered that the vast semiconductor space offers many other potential candidates for exposure to this industry, and AMD surely is not the only stock with upside potential over the next couple of years. Still, for those looking for a higher-growth name in the space and that do not mind paying up for growth, AMD seems like a solid choice when one invests with a goal of holding shares for several years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":166,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
