It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.</p><p>In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nike’s real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.</p><p>Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. It’s also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p><p>With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, that’s where the momentum is at.</p><p>Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47861f1381d07e74ccba8ded13159044\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Let’s go in that order.</p><p>The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the game<i>Monopoly</i> — but they also boast strong growth.</p><p>That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.</p><p>When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67<i>billion</i>inFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.</p><p>All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/364a2cb8d2afac18372e4783b1019bd1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>I refer to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> as having one of the best business models in the world.

Services.</p><p>Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY.

It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.</p><p>In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nike’s real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.</p><p>Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. It’s also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p><p>With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis.

Let’s go in that order.</p><p>The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the game<i>Monopoly</i> — but they also boast strong growth.</p><p>That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.</p><p>When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67<i>billion</i>inFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.</p><p>All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/364a2cb8d2afac18372e4783b1019bd1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>I refer to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> as having one of the best business models in the world.

Find something new, would ya!”</p><p>Well, it’s hard to be a future blue chips stock if the company isn’t already a good one.

And now, we’re going to go one-by-one through them to see why.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a86b7974b7e75ab9d177dd5490282aac\" tg-width=\"1114\" tg-height=\"454\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NKE\">Nike</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/96309d402167ac02d02467153492335a\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: TY Lim / Shutterstock.com</p><p>One of the largest apparel companies in the world is<b>Nike</b>(NYSE:<b>NKE</b>). It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.</p><p>In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nike’s real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.</p><p>Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. It’s also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p><p>With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, that’s where the momentum is at.</p><p>Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47861f1381d07e74ccba8ded13159044\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Let’s go in that order.</p><p>The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the game<i>Monopoly</i> — but they also boast strong growth.</p><p>That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.</p><p>When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67<i>billion</i>inFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.</p><p>All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/364a2cb8d2afac18372e4783b1019bd1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>I refer to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> as having one of the best business models in the world. It runs the razor/razor blade model, but at an incredible premium.</p><p>The razor/razor blade model is premised on the idea of getting the razor into customer’s hands — even if that means giving it away at cost (or less) — so that they will continue to buy razors from you, which is the real money maker.</p><p>Rather than give away its razors though — in this case, that’s iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. — Apple charges a hefty premium. They mark these devices up in price to the point where they alone generate an enormous business for Apple.</p><p>So, what then is the razor blade portion of the business? Services.</p><p>Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY. Not only is it outpacing the company’s Products revenue in terms of growth, and overall revenue growth, but Apple’s Services unit is more than twice as profitable as its Products business. And that is the main catalyst that people need to understand.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/806d1eadbf86df2e3594da052318aa3a\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Kikinunchi / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Outside of the tech space, these next two companies have been some of the best performers over the last decade. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MA\">MasterCard</a> run what I like to call a “toll booth” on transactions.</p><p>There’s a secular trend that’s been underway for years, as consumers transition from cash and check to credit and debit. Additionally, the rise of online and digital sales has only fueled this move, as consumers obviously find it easy to shop.</p><p>Specifically, with these two businesses, investors have been quick to critique the valuation by pointing out that Visa stock trades at more than 17 times its trailing 12-month revenue. In the past, this valuation has also been an issue.Even during generous market periods, that’s a rich valuation for many growth stocks.However, in those instances, investors aren’t taking profits into account for the growth stocks, because many don’t have any. And in the case of Visa, it’s incredibly profitable.</p><p>Overall, the company sports gross profit margins of almost 80% and net profit margins of 51.6%. These metrics aren’t back to the pre-pandemic highs just yet, but they are inching in that direction now. Therefore, it makes a great option among the top blue-chip stocks to buy.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MA\">MasterCard </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ceebd503c5e934c82f5af4c8e4a01c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Alexander Yakimov / Shutterstock.com</p><p>MasterCard is very similar to Visa. Like the latter, MasterCard also tends to trade at a high price-sales (P/S) ratio. While many will glance at this metric and dismiss these stocks, it’s a foolish way to evaluate them. Admittedly the valuations have crept higher, but from this standpoint, they have almost always been elevated. And yet, investors have reaped enormous rewards by staying long Visa and MasterCard.</p><p>In fact, 76% of revenue is converted into gross profit and almost <i>half</i> of revenue falls to the bottom line. In turn, MasterCard boasts a net profit margin of 46%. Of course, like Visa, these margins are not back to pre-pandemic levels; But they do continue to climb.</p><p>Collectively, the major risk to these businesses isn’t digital sales, cryptocurrencies or otherwise. It’s a recession, either globally or domestically. Lower consumer spending will be a big net negative to these stocks specifically since spending is what drives the top and bottom line.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04874462381e4ee3fb7f89da1b0d0b6f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Hairem / Shutterstock.com</p><p>As one of the greatest companies in the market as well, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a> caters to multiple end-markets that are enjoying long-term secular growth. Some of those end markets include:</p><p>Datacenter, cloud computing, supercomputing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, graphics, gaming, autonomous driving and automotive, drones, robotics, the metaverse and more.</p><p>Moreover, when you look at those markets, it’s pretty clear to see the trends. Do customers want faster computers, better graphics, and more responsive gaming and control (for drones, robotics, autonomous driving)?

But not just blue-chip stocks of that era. Instead, I was after future blue chips; And thus, the Future Blue Chips idea had dawned on me.Since then, I have been hunting tomorrow’s shining stars of today, sniffing out the best stocks I can find with strong fundamentals, solid leadership and reasonable valuations.These are long-term, theme-oriented stocks that are relying on high-quality businesses and secular trends. Years ago — perhaps a decade — I would get people that would reach out to me and say, “Hey! These are already well-known companies. Find something new, would ya!”Well, it’s hard to be a future blue chips stock if the company isn’t already a good one. At the time, it included many of the names you see above, minus Nvidia unfortunately. On the plus side, the rest of these companies have continued to deliver the goods. And now, we’re going to go one-by-one through them to see why.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: NikeSource: TY Lim / Shutterstock.comOne of the largest apparel companies in the world isNike(NYSE:NKE). It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nike’s real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. It’s also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, that’s where the momentum is at.Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.comAlphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Let’s go in that order.The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the gameMonopoly — but they also boast strong growth.That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67billioninFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: Apple Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.comI refer to Apple  as having one of the best business models in the world. It runs the razor/razor blade model, but at an incredible premium.The razor/razor blade model is premised on the idea of getting the razor into customer’s hands — even if that means giving it away at cost (or less) — so that they will continue to buy razors from you, which is the real money maker.Rather than give away its razors though — in this case, that’s iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. — Apple charges a hefty premium. They mark these devices up in price to the point where they alone generate an enormous business for Apple.So, what then is the razor blade portion of the business? Services.Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY. Not only is it outpacing the company’s Products revenue in terms of growth, and overall revenue growth, but Apple’s Services unit is more than twice as profitable as its Products business. And that is the main catalyst that people need to understand.Visa Source: Kikinunchi / Shutterstock.comOutside of the tech space, these next two companies have been some of the best performers over the last decade. Visa and MasterCard run what I like to call a “toll booth” on transactions.There’s a secular trend that’s been underway for years, as consumers transition from cash and check to credit and debit. Additionally, the rise of online and digital sales has only fueled this move, as consumers obviously find it easy to shop.Specifically, with these two businesses, investors have been quick to critique the valuation by pointing out that Visa stock trades at more than 17 times its trailing 12-month revenue. In the past, this valuation has also been an issue.Even during generous market periods, that’s a rich valuation for many growth stocks.However, in those instances, investors aren’t taking profits into account for the growth stocks, because many don’t have any. And in the case of Visa, it’s incredibly profitable.Overall, the company sports gross profit margins of almost 80% and net profit margins of 51.6%. These metrics aren’t back to the pre-pandemic highs just yet, but they are inching in that direction now. Therefore, it makes a great option among the top blue-chip stocks to buy.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: MasterCard Source: Alexander Yakimov / Shutterstock.comMasterCard is very similar to Visa. Like the latter, MasterCard also tends to trade at a high price-sales (P/S) ratio. While many will glance at this metric and dismiss these stocks, it’s a foolish way to evaluate them. Admittedly the valuations have crept higher, but from this standpoint, they have almost always been elevated. And yet, investors have reaped enormous rewards by staying long Visa and MasterCard.In fact, 76% of revenue is converted into gross profit and almost half of revenue falls to the bottom line. In turn, MasterCard boasts a net profit margin of 46%. Of course, like Visa, these margins are not back to pre-pandemic levels; But they do continue to climb.Collectively, the major risk to these businesses isn’t digital sales, cryptocurrencies or otherwise. It’s a recession, either globally or domestically. Lower consumer spending will be a big net negative to these stocks specifically since spending is what drives the top and bottom line.NvidiaSource: Hairem / Shutterstock.comAs one of the greatest companies in the market as well, Nvidia caters to multiple end-markets that are enjoying long-term secular growth. Some of those end markets include:Datacenter, cloud computing, supercomputing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, graphics, gaming, autonomous driving and automotive, drones, robotics, the metaverse and more.Moreover, when you look at those markets, it’s pretty clear to see the trends. Do customers want faster computers, better graphics, and more responsive gaming and control (for drones, robotics, autonomous driving)? Do they want faster cloud-based applications and are they generating more data?The answers to these questions all point to more demand for Nvidia’s products In turn, it’s the main reason I believe this firm will eventually command a $1 trillion market cap.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: Starbucks Source: Grand Warszawski / Shutterstock.comLast but not least, we have a dominant food- and drinks-based retailer with Starbucks. Aside from routinely landing among the top spots in thePiper Sandlerteen survey, Starbucks remains a go-to “third place” for consumers of all ages.The company may be out of its strong growth days, but Starbucks still generates impressive cash flow and growth. With that in mind, analysts expectabout 13% revenue growth this year, then a steady 8% to 9% growth ineach of the next three years.On the earnings front, analysts expect roughly 18% earnings growth this year, followed by more than 17% growth next year.Furthermore, the recent dip in the stock has driven Starbucks’ dividend yield up above 2%.While it’s not winning many income investors over at that rate, it’s not bad for those of us with a long-term horizon that isn’t necessarily focused solely on dividend income. However, the company has made this yield a priority.Starbucks has grown its dividend for 11 years now, with afive-year average growth rateof about 15.9%. So, clearly, it’s a focus.Thus, as long as the world is drinking coffee, Starbucks will be a winner.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":128,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9010162221,"gmtCreate":1648293273287,"gmtModify":1676534325939,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9010162221","repostId":"1116489032","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1116489032","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1648254314,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1116489032?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-26 08:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is NIO The Buy Of The Year?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1116489032","media":"marketbeat","summary":"This might not be a question you were expecting to hear with regards to NIO (NYSE: NIO), whose shares are down almost 70% from last year’s all-time high, but it’s one worth asking.

Because if one thing’s for sure, the Shanghai headquartered electric vehicle (EV) maker knows how to keep investors on their toes.

There’s plenty afoot with NIO that suggests its shares might be about to kick off a much-needed rally.</p><h2>Mixed Earnings</h2><p>Their Q4 earnings, released last night, gave investors and Wall Street a glimpse into the engine. Revenue for the quarter was ahead of analyst expectations and up 52% year on year, which helped to offset the slight miss on EPS. Delivery of vehicles for the fourth quarter of 2021 was up 44% compared to the same quarter the previous year, with total deliveries for 2021 up 109% compared to 2020. These are good numbers and suggest NIO’s revenue engine is building significant momentum. The timing is perfect too, with the effects of the Russian - Ukraine war on oil and gas prices causing many to think about switching permanently to an EV.</p><p>Initial indications in Friday’s pre-market session however suggested that there was some further room for shares to fall in the near term after the report. The earnings per share miss didn’t do them any favors, especially at a time when Chinese stocks are coming under intense scrutiny and investors aren’t as willing to overlook surprises to the downside.

Earlier this week, Morgan Stanley analyst Tim Hsiao reiterated his Buy rating, while trimming his price target from a stale $66 to $34. In doing so he acknowledged the “elevating macro headwinds and severe supply challenges” as near-term challenges, but feels confident that the company’s “superior liquidity and revenue visibility have it well-positioned to ride out any economic downturn.”</p><h2>Massive Upside</h2><p>His new price target suggests there’s as much upside as 50% to be had from where shares closed on Thursday which should be tempting to even the most bearish of us. In a note to clients, Hsiao pointed out that NIO has “deep enough pockets to finance its growth ambitions with the net cash position at the end of 2021 set to cover more aggressive investments this year. Management also now expects net profit to reach break-even in Q4 of 2023, which could also help alleviate the pressure on investment cash outflow.”</p><p>The team over at Citi also took a relaxed view after Thursday’s earnings miss, saying on Friday morning that they were impressed with the strong vehicle margins that NIO delivered in Q4 even as prices for raw materials soared. Investors on the hunt for a bargain could do worse than take a look at NIO now, especially in light of the current downtrend shares find themselves in. The near-term headwinds are not to be ignored, but if you’re going to get involved in an EV stock, or any new frontier stock for that matter, you have to be forward-looking and focused on the long-term potential.</p><p>Earlier this week, Deutsche Bank reiterated their Buy rating on NIO, noting that “the tide seems to be finally turning for the Chinese EV stock”. Their $50 price target would have shared more than double from their current levels, so if your time horizon is long enough you have to be asking  yourself if now’s the time to start backing up the truck.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is NIO The Buy Of The Year?</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\">\nIs NIO The Buy Of The Year?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-26 08:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketbeat.com/originals/is-nio-nyse-nio-the-buy-of-the-year/><strong>marketbeat</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>This might not be a question you were expecting to hear with regards to NIO (NYSE: NIO), whose shares are down almost 70% from last year’s all-time high, but it’s one worth asking.

In a note to clients, Hsiao pointed out that NIO has “deep enough pockets to finance its growth ambitions with the net cash position at the end of 2021 set to cover more aggressive investments this year. Management also now expects net profit to reach break-even in Q4 of 2023, which could also help alleviate the pressure on investment cash outflow.”The team over at Citi also took a relaxed view after Thursday’s earnings miss, saying on Friday morning that they were impressed with the strong vehicle margins that NIO delivered in Q4 even as prices for raw materials soared. Investors on the hunt for a bargain could do worse than take a look at NIO now, especially in light of the current downtrend shares find themselves in. The near-term headwinds are not to be ignored, but if you’re going to get involved in an EV stock, or any new frontier stock for that matter, you have to be forward-looking and focused on the long-term potential.Earlier this week, Deutsche Bank reiterated their Buy rating on NIO, noting that “the tide seems to be finally turning for the Chinese EV stock”. Their $50 price target would have shared more than double from their current levels, so if your time horizon is long enough you have to be asking  yourself if now’s the time to start backing up the truck.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":159,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9086940638,"gmtCreate":1650412537742,"gmtModify":1676534716803,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Okay","listText":"Okay","text":"Okay","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9086940638","repostId":"2228911295","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2228911295","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1650411570,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2228911295?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-20 07:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"After-Hours Stock Movers: IBM Gains on Beat; Netflix Plummets on Sub Miss","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2228911295","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"After-Hours Stock Movers:Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX)  26% LOWER; Q1 global streaming subscribers fell 200","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9e09572bc1d38cb790bc7a89c599228e\" tg-width=\"200\" tg-height=\"125\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p><b>After-Hours Stock Movers:</b></p><p>Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX)  26% LOWER; Q1 global streaming subscribers fell 200k versus an expected gain of 2.5 million.

It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.</p><p>In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nike’s real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.</p><p>Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. It’s also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p><p>With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, that’s where the momentum is at.</p><p>Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47861f1381d07e74ccba8ded13159044\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Let’s go in that order.</p><p>The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the game<i>Monopoly</i> — but they also boast strong growth.</p><p>That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.</p><p>When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67<i>billion</i>inFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.</p><p>All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/364a2cb8d2afac18372e4783b1019bd1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>I refer to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> as having one of the best business models in the world. It runs the razor/razor blade model, but at an incredible premium.</p><p>The razor/razor blade model is premised on the idea of getting the razor into customer’s hands — even if that means giving it away at cost (or less) — so that they will continue to buy razors from you, which is the real money maker.</p><p>Rather than give away its razors though — in this case, that’s iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. — Apple charges a hefty premium. They mark these devices up in price to the point where they alone generate an enormous business for Apple.</p><p>So, what then is the razor blade portion of the business? Services.</p><p>Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY. Not only is it outpacing the company’s Products revenue in terms of growth, and overall revenue growth, but Apple’s Services unit is more than twice as profitable as its Products business. And that is the main catalyst that people need to understand.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/806d1eadbf86df2e3594da052318aa3a\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Kikinunchi / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Outside of the tech space, these next two companies have been some of the best performers over the last decade. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MA\">MasterCard</a> run what I like to call a “toll booth” on transactions.</p><p>There’s a secular trend that’s been underway for years, as consumers transition from cash and check to credit and debit. Additionally, the rise of online and digital sales has only fueled this move, as consumers obviously find it easy to shop.</p><p>Specifically, with these two businesses, investors have been quick to critique the valuation by pointing out that Visa stock trades at more than 17 times its trailing 12-month revenue. In the past, this valuation has also been an issue.Even during generous market periods, that’s a rich valuation for many growth stocks.However, in those instances, investors aren’t taking profits into account for the growth stocks, because many don’t have any. And in the case of Visa, it’s incredibly profitable.</p><p>Overall, the company sports gross profit margins of almost 80% and net profit margins of 51.6%. These metrics aren’t back to the pre-pandemic highs just yet, but they are inching in that direction now. Therefore, it makes a great option among the top blue-chip stocks to buy.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MA\">MasterCard </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ceebd503c5e934c82f5af4c8e4a01c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Alexander Yakimov / Shutterstock.com</p><p>MasterCard is very similar to Visa. Like the latter, MasterCard also tends to trade at a high price-sales (P/S) ratio. While many will glance at this metric and dismiss these stocks, it’s a foolish way to evaluate them. Admittedly the valuations have crept higher, but from this standpoint, they have almost always been elevated. And yet, investors have reaped enormous rewards by staying long Visa and MasterCard.</p><p>In fact, 76% of revenue is converted into gross profit and almost <i>half</i> of revenue falls to the bottom line. In turn, MasterCard boasts a net profit margin of 46%. Of course, like Visa, these margins are not back to pre-pandemic levels; But they do continue to climb.</p><p>Collectively, the major risk to these businesses isn’t digital sales, cryptocurrencies or otherwise. It’s a recession, either globally or domestically. Lower consumer spending will be a big net negative to these stocks specifically since spending is what drives the top and bottom line.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04874462381e4ee3fb7f89da1b0d0b6f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Hairem / Shutterstock.com</p><p>As one of the greatest companies in the market as well, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a> caters to multiple end-markets that are enjoying long-term secular growth. Some of those end markets include:</p><p>Datacenter, cloud computing, supercomputing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, graphics, gaming, autonomous driving and automotive, drones, robotics, the metaverse and more.</p><p>Moreover, when you look at those markets, it’s pretty clear to see the trends. Do customers want faster computers, better graphics, and more responsive gaming and control (for drones, robotics, autonomous driving)? Do they want faster cloud-based applications and are they generating more data?</p><p>The answers to these questions all point to more demand for Nvidia’s products In turn, it’s the main reason I believe this firm will eventually command a $1 trillion market cap.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SBUX\">Starbucks </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb5693448bc0842fb18328a21a9c78ed\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Grand Warszawski / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Last but not least, we have a dominant food- and drinks-based retailer with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SBUX\">Starbucks</a>. Aside from routinely landing among the top spots in the<i>Piper Sandler</i>teen survey, Starbucks remains a go-to “third place” for consumers of all ages.</p><p>The company may be out of its strong growth days, but Starbucks still generates impressive cash flow and growth. With that in mind, analysts expectabout 13% revenue growth this year, then a steady 8% to 9% growth ineach of the next three years.On the earnings front, analysts expect roughly 18% earnings growth this year, followed by more than 17% growth next year.</p><p>Furthermore, the recent dip in the stock has driven Starbucks’ dividend yield up above 2%.While it’s not winning many income investors over at that rate, it’s not bad for those of us with a long-term horizon that isn’t necessarily focused solely on dividend income. However, the company has made this yield a priority.</p><p>Starbucks has grown its dividend for 11 years now, with afive-year average growth rateof about 15.9%. So, clearly, it’s a focus.</p><p>Thus, as long as the world is drinking coffee, Starbucks will be a winner.</p></body></html>","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>7 Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy for April 2022</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\">\n7 Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy for April 2022\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-02 10:12 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/04/7-blue-chip-stocks-to-buy-for-april-2022/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Nike: Best-of-breed apparel maker and a leader in sports apparel.Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG): Owns the top two websites in the world.Apple: Unrivaled business model with its Products and Services ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/04/7-blue-chip-stocks-to-buy-for-april-2022/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"V":"Visa","MA":"万事达","SBUX":"星巴克","GOOG":"谷歌","NKE":"耐克","AAPL":"苹果","NVDA":"英伟达","GOOGL":"谷歌A"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2022/04/7-blue-chip-stocks-to-buy-for-april-2022/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1123130739","content_text":"Nike: Best-of-breed apparel maker and a leader in sports apparel.Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG): Owns the top two websites in the world.Apple: Unrivaled business model with its Products and Services businesses.Visa: Runs a near-duopoly on the credit card market.MasterCard: Like Visa, operates with impressive margins and cash flow.Nvidia: Best-of-breed tech juggernaut catering to multiple end-markets enjoying strong secular growth.Starbucks: A leader in the consumer/retail business and has a strong focus on shareholder returns.Early in my investing career, I saw something that really piqued my interest: blue-chip stocks.

So, clearly, that’s where the momentum is at.Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.comAlphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Let’s go in that order.The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world — akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the gameMonopoly — but they also boast strong growth.That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67billioninFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: Apple Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.comI refer to Apple  as having one of the best business models in the world. It runs the razor/razor blade model, but at an incredible premium.The razor/razor blade model is premised on the idea of getting the razor into customer’s hands — even if that means giving it away at cost (or less) — so that they will continue to buy razors from you, which is the real money maker.Rather than give away its razors though — in this case, that’s iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. — Apple charges a hefty premium. They mark these devices up in price to the point where they alone generate an enormous business for Apple.So, what then is the razor blade portion of the business? Services.Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY. Not only is it outpacing the company’s Products revenue in terms of growth, and overall revenue growth, but Apple’s Services unit is more than twice as profitable as its Products business. And that is the main catalyst that people need to understand.Visa Source: Kikinunchi / Shutterstock.comOutside of the tech space, these next two companies have been some of the best performers over the last decade. Visa and MasterCard run what I like to call a “toll booth” on transactions.There’s a secular trend that’s been underway for years, as consumers transition from cash and check to credit and debit. Additionally, the rise of online and digital sales has only fueled this move, as consumers obviously find it easy to shop.Specifically, with these two businesses, investors have been quick to critique the valuation by pointing out that Visa stock trades at more than 17 times its trailing 12-month revenue. In the past, this valuation has also been an issue.Even during generous market periods, that’s a rich valuation for many growth stocks.However, in those instances, investors aren’t taking profits into account for the growth stocks, because many don’t have any. And in the case of Visa, it’s incredibly profitable.Overall, the company sports gross profit margins of almost 80% and net profit margins of 51.6%. These metrics aren’t back to the pre-pandemic highs just yet, but they are inching in that direction now. Therefore, it makes a great option among the top blue-chip stocks to buy.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: MasterCard Source: Alexander Yakimov / Shutterstock.comMasterCard is very similar to Visa. Like the latter, MasterCard also tends to trade at a high price-sales (P/S) ratio. While many will glance at this metric and dismiss these stocks, it’s a foolish way to evaluate them. Admittedly the valuations have crept higher, but from this standpoint, they have almost always been elevated. And yet, investors have reaped enormous rewards by staying long Visa and MasterCard.In fact, 76% of revenue is converted into gross profit and almost half of revenue falls to the bottom line. In turn, MasterCard boasts a net profit margin of 46%. Of course, like Visa, these margins are not back to pre-pandemic levels; But they do continue to climb.Collectively, the major risk to these businesses isn’t digital sales, cryptocurrencies or otherwise. It’s a recession, either globally or domestically. Lower consumer spending will be a big net negative to these stocks specifically since spending is what drives the top and bottom line.NvidiaSource: Hairem / Shutterstock.comAs one of the greatest companies in the market as well, Nvidia caters to multiple end-markets that are enjoying long-term secular growth. Some of those end markets include:Datacenter, cloud computing, supercomputing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, graphics, gaming, autonomous driving and automotive, drones, robotics, the metaverse and more.Moreover, when you look at those markets, it’s pretty clear to see the trends. Do customers want faster computers, better graphics, and more responsive gaming and control (for drones, robotics, autonomous driving)? Do they want faster cloud-based applications and are they generating more data?The answers to these questions all point to more demand for Nvidia’s products In turn, it’s the main reason I believe this firm will eventually command a $1 trillion market cap.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: Starbucks Source: Grand Warszawski / Shutterstock.comLast but not least, we have a dominant food- and drinks-based retailer with Starbucks. Aside from routinely landing among the top spots in thePiper Sandlerteen survey, Starbucks remains a go-to “third place” for consumers of all ages.The company may be out of its strong growth days, but Starbucks still generates impressive cash flow and growth. With that in mind, analysts expectabout 13% revenue growth this year, then a steady 8% to 9% growth ineach of the next three years.On the earnings front, analysts expect roughly 18% earnings growth this year, followed by more than 17% growth next year.Furthermore, the recent dip in the stock has driven Starbucks’ dividend yield up above 2%.While it’s not winning many income investors over at that rate, it’s not bad for those of us with a long-term horizon that isn’t necessarily focused solely on dividend income. However, the company has made this yield a priority.Starbucks has grown its dividend for 11 years now, with afive-year average growth rateof about 15.9%. So, clearly, it’s a focus.Thus, as long as the world is drinking coffee, Starbucks will be a winner.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":77,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9016525857,"gmtCreate":1649208364942,"gmtModify":1676534470833,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9016525857","repostId":"2225658408","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2225658408","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1649206833,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2225658408?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-06 09:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Buffett Stocks That Are Great Buys in April","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2225658408","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"They're cheap buys that can be excellent recovery stocks to hold right now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Stocks that are held within <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>&#39;s portfolio can be a great place for value-oriented investors to look for good buys.

Not only do they have strong fundamentals, but both companies could do well this year (and beyond) as the economy attempts to return to normal.</p><h2>1. Bristol-Myers Squibb</h2><p>Bristol-Myers Squibb is the type of stock you can tuck away for years and even decades. It takes up a modest 0.1% of Berkshire&#39;s portfolio today, but the company still has hundreds of millions of dollars invested in the top healthcare stock. Over the past four quarters, Bristol-Myers has consistently reported an operating income that has been at least 13% of revenue. A big reason for that is that the business generates incredibly strong gross margins that hover around 80%.</p><p>With the stock trading at less than 10 times its future earnings, investors aren&#39;t paying much of a premium to own a piece of the company -- the average stock in the <b>Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund</b> trades at a multiple of more than 16. But that reflects just profitability over the next year.

Opdualag will be used with another cancer drug that Bristol-Myers makes, Opdivo. The combined therapy could bring in more than $4 billion in annual revenue for Bristol-Myers by 2029, which could be a decent chunk of the top line for a business that reported $46 billion in sales in 2021.</p><p>Bristol-Myers could have a strong year in 2022 if there&#39;s a return to normal in the economy as patients undergo more screenings and doctors issue more prescriptions. But even if there isn&#39;t, the business has been shown to be resilient, generating 9% sales growth last year. In addition to growth potential, the stock also provides investors with a generous dividend yield of 2.9%. That&#39;s more than double the average <b>S&amp;P 500</b> stock, which pays 1.3%.</p><p>There&#39;s no shortage of reasons to buy Bristol-Myers for the long term, and at a cheap price, now may be an excellent time to add the stock to your portfolio.</p><h2>2. American Express</h2><p>Financial services company American Express is a more popular Buffett stock since it takes up 8% of Berkshire&#39;s portfolio today. That&#39;s more than rivals <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b> and <b>Mastercard</b>, which account for less than 1% combined.</p><p>While all the major credit cards will benefit from a strong economy, American Express may outperform, particularly in the business world, as its cards are popular with corporate travelers. And the signs of a return to normal are evident in the company&#39;s most recent earnings report.</p><p>For 2021, revenue (net of interest expense) soared 30% to $12.1 billion. The company stated there was record card-member spending during the period. Meanwhile, net income rose 20% to $1.7 billion. What&#39;s promising is that AmEx projects even more revenue growth ahead, predicting that its sales will grow between 18% and 20% this year.</p><p>Investors are clearly banking on some better times ahead. Year to date, while the S&amp;P 500 has fallen by 4%, shares of AmEx are up 14% (Bristol-Myers stock has risen at an even higher rate of 19%). The credit card company is trading at a multiple of 19 times its forward earnings. That makes it look incredibly cheap compared to both Visa and Mastercard, where investors are paying more than 30 times the future profits of those two companies.</p><p>And with a modest 1.1% dividend yield as well (Visa and Mastercard both pay less), there&#39;s some added incentive to just buy and hold for the long haul.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>2 Buffett Stocks That Are Great Buys in April</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\">\n2 Buffett Stocks That Are Great Buys in April\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-06 09:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/05/2-buffett-stocks-that-are-great-buys-in-april/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stocks that are held within Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio can be a great place for value-oriented investors to look for good buys.

Within this overall decline, apparel makers were particularly hard hit, amid concerns about inflation and a drop-off in demand caused by the conflict in Europe. </p><p>Capri Holdings (NYSE:CPRI), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PVH\">PVH Corp</a> (NYSE:PVH) and Ralph Lauren (NYSE:RL) all posted notable losses on the session.</p><p>VIZIO (NYSE:VZIO) represented another standout decliner, with earnings news prompting a double-digit percentage slide. Meanwhile, General Motors (NYSE:GM) added to its recent weakness, driving to a fresh 52-week low.</p><p>Bucking the overall cautious tone of the day, Sweetgreen (NYSE:SG) expanded its value by a quarter, spurred higher by the strong outlook included in its quarterly update. At the same time, Sprouts Farmers Market (NASDAQ:SFM) continued recent strength in the grocery sector, with news of a stock buyback program pushing shares to a new 52-week high.</p><p><b>Sector In Focus</b></p><p>The follow-on impact of Russia&#39;s invasion of Ukraine has had some unexpected consequences. Friday saw concerns stemming from the crisis drive selling in the apparel sector, with high-end names seeing particularly sharp declines.</p><p>The retreat comes amid ongoing worries about inflation and the prospect of lower demand in Europe. Capri Holdings (CPRI) saw some of the most concentrated downward pressure in the group, retreating by about 15%.</p><p>PVH Corp (PVH) was another major casualty, with shares sliding almost 12%. Ralph Lauren (RL) added to the decline, ending the day with a 7% loss.</p><p><b>Standout Gainer</b></p><p>Sweetgreen (SG) jumped 25% after releasing a strong revenue figure and providing an upbeat forecast. The rally allowed the stock to come off its post-IPO low.</p><p>For Q4, the chain of salad restaurants posted a wider-than-expected GAAP loss. However, the firm&#39;s revenue figure exceeded analysts&#39; expectations, rising nearly 63% from last year to reach $96.4M. That was almost $12M above the figure experts had targeted.</p><p>Looking ahead, the company also gave a strong top-line forecast for the year. SG predicted 2022 revenue of $515M-$535M, topping the consensus estimate of $513M.</p><p>SG ended the day at $26.78, an advance of $5.43. With the advance, the stock came off its post-IPO low of $21.18.</p><p>Looking longer-term, SG came public in November of last year in an IPO priced at $28 a share. It rallied to a post-IPO high of $56.20 shortly after but declined from there into early December. Shares have largely bounced around in a range since, although they dipped to a new low earlier this week.</p><p><b>Standout Loser</b></p><p>A steeper-than-expected decline in quarterly revenue fueled a massive sell-off in shares of VIZIO (VZIO). The stock dropped 16% to touch its lowest level since coming public almost a year ago.</p><p>The maker of TVs and sound bars reported quarterly revenue of $628.8M, down from a figure of $734.3M in the same period last year. The slide came largely from its hardware sales, which dropped 22% from last year. This was partially offset by 74% revenue growth in the firm&#39;s Platform+ product.</p><p>Based on the revenue miss, shares finished lower by $2.13, with the stock closing the session at $11.08. VZIO, which came public last March at a price of $21, also established a new all-time low of $10.36 during the session.</p><p><b>Notable New High</b></p><p>Sprouts Farmers Market (SFM) got a boost from a new share buyback program, sending the stock higher by 7%. With the advance, the stock, which has also received support from a general rally in the supermarket sector, pushed to a new 52-week high.</p><p>The grocery store chain revealed that it has authorized a new stock repurchase plan valued at $600M. This replaces a previous program, which had less than $100M remaining.</p><p>SFM advanced $2.18 on the session to close at $33.62. During the day, shares also established a fresh intraday 52-week high of $33.89.</p><p>Friday&#39;s gain added to a recent advance for the stock, marking its third consecutive day of gains and building on a rally of more than 7% seen the day before. SFM has climbed about 15% over the past week and more than 40% over the past six months.</p><p>Shares of grocery store chains have seen significant gains this week. Early this week, Albertsons provided a lift with news of a strategic review. Kroger added further fuel Thursday with a strong quarterly report.</p><p>Notable New Low</p><p>As recently as early January, the future looked bright for General Motors (GM). The automaking giant was positioning itself as a potential leader in the electric vehicle space, with the company launching the all-electric Chevy Silverado.</p><p>Amid the excitement over its ramping up of EV products, GM reached a 52-week high of $67.21 just after New Year&#39;s. However, shares have suffered a steep decline since. The retreat came amid general market concerns about rising interest rates.

Within this overall decline, apparel makers were particularly hard hit, amid concerns about inflation and a drop-off in demand caused by the conflict in Europe. Capri Holdings (NYSE:CPRI), PVH Corp (NYSE:PVH) and Ralph Lauren (NYSE:RL) all posted notable losses on the session.VIZIO (NYSE:VZIO) represented another standout decliner, with earnings news prompting a double-digit percentage slide. Meanwhile, General Motors (NYSE:GM) added to its recent weakness, driving to a fresh 52-week low.Bucking the overall cautious tone of the day, Sweetgreen (NYSE:SG) expanded its value by a quarter, spurred higher by the strong outlook included in its quarterly update. At the same time, Sprouts Farmers Market (NASDAQ:SFM) continued recent strength in the grocery sector, with news of a stock buyback program pushing shares to a new 52-week high.Sector In FocusThe follow-on impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine has had some unexpected consequences. Friday saw concerns stemming from the crisis drive selling in the apparel sector, with high-end names seeing particularly sharp declines.The retreat comes amid ongoing worries about inflation and the prospect of lower demand in Europe. Capri Holdings (CPRI) saw some of the most concentrated downward pressure in the group, retreating by about 15%.PVH Corp (PVH) was another major casualty, with shares sliding almost 12%. Ralph Lauren (RL) added to the decline, ending the day with a 7% loss.Standout GainerSweetgreen (SG) jumped 25% after releasing a strong revenue figure and providing an upbeat forecast. The rally allowed the stock to come off its post-IPO low.For Q4, the chain of salad restaurants posted a wider-than-expected GAAP loss. However, the firm's revenue figure exceeded analysts' expectations, rising nearly 63% from last year to reach $96.4M. That was almost $12M above the figure experts had targeted.Looking ahead, the company also gave a strong top-line forecast for the year. SG predicted 2022 revenue of $515M-$535M, topping the consensus estimate of $513M.SG ended the day at $26.78, an advance of $5.43. With the advance, the stock came off its post-IPO low of $21.18.Looking longer-term, SG came public in November of last year in an IPO priced at $28 a share. It rallied to a post-IPO high of $56.20 shortly after but declined from there into early December. Shares have largely bounced around in a range since, although they dipped to a new low earlier this week.Standout LoserA steeper-than-expected decline in quarterly revenue fueled a massive sell-off in shares of VIZIO (VZIO). The stock dropped 16% to touch its lowest level since coming public almost a year ago.The maker of TVs and sound bars reported quarterly revenue of $628.8M, down from a figure of $734.3M in the same period last year. The slide came largely from its hardware sales, which dropped 22% from last year. This was partially offset by 74% revenue growth in the firm's Platform+ product.Based on the revenue miss, shares finished lower by $2.13, with the stock closing the session at $11.08. VZIO, which came public last March at a price of $21, also established a new all-time low of $10.36 during the session.Notable New HighSprouts Farmers Market (SFM) got a boost from a new share buyback program, sending the stock higher by 7%. With the advance, the stock, which has also received support from a general rally in the supermarket sector, pushed to a new 52-week high.The grocery store chain revealed that it has authorized a new stock repurchase plan valued at $600M. This replaces a previous program, which had less than $100M remaining.SFM advanced $2.18 on the session to close at $33.62. During the day, shares also established a fresh intraday 52-week high of $33.89.Friday's gain added to a recent advance for the stock, marking its third consecutive day of gains and building on a rally of more than 7% seen the day before. SFM has climbed about 15% over the past week and more than 40% over the past six months.Shares of grocery store chains have seen significant gains this week. Early this week, Albertsons provided a lift with news of a strategic review. Kroger added further fuel Thursday with a strong quarterly report.Notable New LowAs recently as early January, the future looked bright for General Motors (GM). The automaking giant was positioning itself as a potential leader in the electric vehicle space, with the company launching the all-electric Chevy Silverado.Amid the excitement over its ramping up of EV products, GM reached a 52-week high of $67.21 just after New Year's. However, shares have suffered a steep decline since. The retreat came amid general market concerns about rising interest rates. The auto sector also saw further selling pressure after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.GM continued the slide on Friday, adding another nearly 6% drop to its recent weakness. This took the stock to a fresh intraday 52-week low of $41.99. Shares recovered a bit by the close, ending the session at $42.40.With the retreat, GM has now fallen about 37% since its January peak.For more of the day's best- and worst-performing stocks, head over to Seeking Alpha's dynamic On The Move section.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":114,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9031171013,"gmtCreate":1646488267832,"gmtModify":1676534134278,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9031171013","repostId":"1136361690","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1136361690","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1646442354,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1136361690?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-05 09:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Earnings Reports to Watch the Week of March 7","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1136361690","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020.

DKS stock is down about 5% so far, compared to a decline of nearly 10% for the benchmark S&amp;P 500 index. However, over the past 12-months, Dick’s share price has gained over 50% to reach its current level of $109.61. The stock has been helped by strong earnings as the economy emerged from Covid-19 lockdowns.</p><p>Despite its run higher over the last year, DKS stock still looks modestly valued with a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.96, which is lower than the industry average of nearly 11 among peer retailers.</p><p>For its fourth-quarter numbers, analysts forecast that the company will report earnings per share (EPS) of $3.39, up 40% from a year ago. Revenue is projected to come in at $3.31 billion, up 6% from a year earlier. DKS stock has risen 6% in the week leading up to its earnings release, suggesting that investors are expecting the company to beat expectations.</p><p>Petco (WOOF)</p><p>Are pet owners continuing to splurge on their beloved cats, dogs and parakeets? We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.</p><p>The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020. Wall Street will be watching to see if the retailer of pet food, toys and supplies has been able to maintain the momentum. Analysts have forecast Petco to report earnings per share (EPS) of $0.25 on revenue of $1.49 billion for Q4.</p><p>While the company’s sales boomed during the pandemic when people were sheltering in place at home with their beloved pets, sentiment towards WOOF stock has cooled off in recent months as the economy reopens and people begin interacting with other humans more. In the last year, Petco’s share price has pulled back 14% to $17.80. That includes a 10% decline so far this year.</p><p>In an effort to rebound, the company has been adding veterinary hospitals to its stores, with 172 now in operation. Thevet business has been Petco’s fastest-growing segment, expanding an annualized 28% in the previous third quarter.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: Oracle (ORCL)</p><p>Legacy software company Oracle reports its Q4 numbers on March 9 and the company’s results could ripple through the tech sector.</p><p>Wall Street is calling for Santa Clara, California-based Oracle to report EPS of $1.18 on revenue of $10.51 billion. The company’s shares have been under pressure lately as it integrates recently acquired digital medical records business <b>Cerner</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CERN</u></b>), which Oracle bought for $28 billion.</p><p>ORCL stock is down 12% year-to-date, but remains up 15% over the last year at its current share price of $76.82.</p><p>Beyond the Cerner acquisition, Oracle has been aggressively growing its cloud software business. As written by <i>the Motley Fool,</i> in the previous third quarter, Oracle reported a “6% rise in cloud services and license support revenue, to $7.6 billion, and a 13% jump in cloud license and on-premise license revenue, to $1.2 billion.” Wall Street applauded these numbers and seems to like that the company is increasingly focusing its efforts on cloud software and related applications. The company’s cloud revenue is forecast to exceed $10 billion this year.</p><p>CrowdStrike (CRWD)</p><p>Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has been mentioned a lot since Russia invaded Ukraine and the threat of cyber warfare intensified around the world. Indeed, CRWD stock has increased more than 10% since Russia launched its attack on neighboring Ukraine.</p><p>The gains have been welcomed by shareholders who have had to watch CrowdStrike’s share price crater in recent months. CrowdStrike’s stock is now down nearly 39% from a peak of $298.48 reached last November. However, the stock has recovered some to now trade at $180.02 a share.</p><p>For the fourth quarter, analysts expect CrowdStrike to report EPS of $0.20 on revenue of $410.91 million.</p><p>Key to the company’s success will be its ability to continue growing its customer base, something it has executed well on over the past few years. Today, 63 of Fortune 100 companies and 14 of the top 20 banks in America deploy CrowdStrike cybersecurity products to protect themselves from cyber threats. And those threats are only growing with the current geopolitical instability, raising demand for CrowdStrike’s products and services.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: Campbell Soup (CPB)</p><p>Now for something warm and comforting. Camden, New Jersey-based Campbell Soup reports its fourth quarter results on March 9 and better-than-expected results might help to get the company’s stock moving higher. Over the past year, CPB shares have been essentially flat(down a slight 0.33%). Year-to-date, the stock is up 5% at $45.65 a share.</p><p>While the company and its stock got a boost at the depths of the pandemic as consumers stocked up on its soup and snack products, those gains have moderated over the last six months.</p><p>Indeed, Wall Street is expecting the maker of soup, Pepperidge Farm cookies and V8 tomato juice to post quarterly earnings of $0.68 per share for the fourth quarter, which would represent a year-over-year decline of -19%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to come in at $2.21 billion, down 2.8% from a year earlier. Part of the decline is due to some tough comparables Campbell Soup is facing from 2020 when its sales were spiking as people were locked down at home during the pandemic.</p><p>Rivian Automotive (RIVN)</p><p>Not much has been going right for the stock of electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive lately. Year-to-date, RIVN stock is down 55% at $46.70 a share. The stock is now down 73% from $179.47 a share reached shortly after the company went public last November.</p><p>It’s been blunder after blunder for Rivian since. The company’s most recent misstep was announcing a $12,000 price increase on its electric pick-up trucks and SUVs that had already been ordered by consumers.</p><p>Rivian was forced to cancel the planned price increase after a swift backlash from consumers and the media. The company said it planned to raise the prices on about 70,000 preorders it received to help offset the inflationary increases it is seeing with the parts and components it needs to build its electric vehicles. However, consumers were having none of it.</p><p>Hopefully, Rivian can right its ship when it reports its Q4 results. Analysts are looking for the company to report negative EPS of -$1.72 on revenue of $60 million.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: DocuSign (DOCU)</p><p>DOCU stock was one of the main beneficiaries of the pandemic lockdowns, with its share price rising over 250% to an all-time high of just under $315 a share. The company’s stock has also been one of the most impacted by the reopening trade. In the last six months, DocuSign’s share price has declined 67% to now trade at $102.67. The San Francisco-based company that specializes in the management of electronic documents and signatures has been pulled down along with other richly valued tech stocks tied to the pandemic.</p><p>Some analysts say the selloff has been overdone and point to the fact that DocuSign is now a global leader in the e-signature sector with specialized software products and improving margins.</p><p>The company’s operating margins are forecast to come in at about 18% in the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 8% at the end of 2020. For the entire fourth quarter, DocuSign is forecast to report EPS of $0.47 on revenues of $561.47 million. Wall Street will be looking for signs that DocuSign can sustain its growth long-term once the pandemic is behind us for good.</p></body></html>","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>7 Earnings Reports to Watch the Week of March 7</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\">\n7 Earnings Reports to Watch the Week of March 7\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-05 09:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/7-earnings-reports-to-watch-the-week-of-march-7/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>It’s that time in earnings season when we’re getting down near the bottom of the barrel.

DKS stock is down about 5% so far, compared to a decline of nearly 10% for the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, over the past 12-months, Dick’s share price has gained over 50% to reach its current level of $109.61. The stock has been helped by strong earnings as the economy emerged from Covid-19 lockdowns.Despite its run higher over the last year, DKS stock still looks modestly valued with a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.96, which is lower than the industry average of nearly 11 among peer retailers.For its fourth-quarter numbers, analysts forecast that the company will report earnings per share (EPS) of $3.39, up 40% from a year ago. Revenue is projected to come in at $3.31 billion, up 6% from a year earlier. DKS stock has risen 6% in the week leading up to its earnings release, suggesting that investors are expecting the company to beat expectations.Petco (WOOF)Are pet owners continuing to splurge on their beloved cats, dogs and parakeets? We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020. Wall Street will be watching to see if the retailer of pet food, toys and supplies has been able to maintain the momentum. Analysts have forecast Petco to report earnings per share (EPS) of $0.25 on revenue of $1.49 billion for Q4.While the company’s sales boomed during the pandemic when people were sheltering in place at home with their beloved pets, sentiment towards WOOF stock has cooled off in recent months as the economy reopens and people begin interacting with other humans more. In the last year, Petco’s share price has pulled back 14% to $17.80. That includes a 10% decline so far this year.In an effort to rebound, the company has been adding veterinary hospitals to its stores, with 172 now in operation. Thevet business has been Petco’s fastest-growing segment, expanding an annualized 28% in the previous third quarter.Earnings Reports Next Week: Oracle (ORCL)Legacy software company Oracle reports its Q4 numbers on March 9 and the company’s results could ripple through the tech sector.Wall Street is calling for Santa Clara, California-based Oracle to report EPS of $1.18 on revenue of $10.51 billion. The company’s shares have been under pressure lately as it integrates recently acquired digital medical records business Cerner(NASDAQ:CERN), which Oracle bought for $28 billion.ORCL stock is down 12% year-to-date, but remains up 15% over the last year at its current share price of $76.82.Beyond the Cerner acquisition, Oracle has been aggressively growing its cloud software business. As written by the Motley Fool, in the previous third quarter, Oracle reported a “6% rise in cloud services and license support revenue, to $7.6 billion, and a 13% jump in cloud license and on-premise license revenue, to $1.2 billion.” Wall Street applauded these numbers and seems to like that the company is increasingly focusing its efforts on cloud software and related applications. The company’s cloud revenue is forecast to exceed $10 billion this year.CrowdStrike (CRWD)Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has been mentioned a lot since Russia invaded Ukraine and the threat of cyber warfare intensified around the world. Indeed, CRWD stock has increased more than 10% since Russia launched its attack on neighboring Ukraine.The gains have been welcomed by shareholders who have had to watch CrowdStrike’s share price crater in recent months. CrowdStrike’s stock is now down nearly 39% from a peak of $298.48 reached last November. However, the stock has recovered some to now trade at $180.02 a share.For the fourth quarter, analysts expect CrowdStrike to report EPS of $0.20 on revenue of $410.91 million.Key to the company’s success will be its ability to continue growing its customer base, something it has executed well on over the past few years. Today, 63 of Fortune 100 companies and 14 of the top 20 banks in America deploy CrowdStrike cybersecurity products to protect themselves from cyber threats. And those threats are only growing with the current geopolitical instability, raising demand for CrowdStrike’s products and services.Earnings Reports Next Week: Campbell Soup (CPB)Now for something warm and comforting. Camden, New Jersey-based Campbell Soup reports its fourth quarter results on March 9 and better-than-expected results might help to get the company’s stock moving higher. Over the past year, CPB shares have been essentially flat(down a slight 0.33%). Year-to-date, the stock is up 5% at $45.65 a share.While the company and its stock got a boost at the depths of the pandemic as consumers stocked up on its soup and snack products, those gains have moderated over the last six months.Indeed, Wall Street is expecting the maker of soup, Pepperidge Farm cookies and V8 tomato juice to post quarterly earnings of $0.68 per share for the fourth quarter, which would represent a year-over-year decline of -19%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to come in at $2.21 billion, down 2.8% from a year earlier. Part of the decline is due to some tough comparables Campbell Soup is facing from 2020 when its sales were spiking as people were locked down at home during the pandemic.Rivian Automotive (RIVN)Not much has been going right for the stock of electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive lately. Year-to-date, RIVN stock is down 55% at $46.70 a share. The stock is now down 73% from $179.47 a share reached shortly after the company went public last November.It’s been blunder after blunder for Rivian since. The company’s most recent misstep was announcing a $12,000 price increase on its electric pick-up trucks and SUVs that had already been ordered by consumers.Rivian was forced to cancel the planned price increase after a swift backlash from consumers and the media. The company said it planned to raise the prices on about 70,000 preorders it received to help offset the inflationary increases it is seeing with the parts and components it needs to build its electric vehicles. However, consumers were having none of it.Hopefully, Rivian can right its ship when it reports its Q4 results. Analysts are looking for the company to report negative EPS of -$1.72 on revenue of $60 million.Earnings Reports Next Week: DocuSign (DOCU)DOCU stock was one of the main beneficiaries of the pandemic lockdowns, with its share price rising over 250% to an all-time high of just under $315 a share. The company’s stock has also been one of the most impacted by the reopening trade. In the last six months, DocuSign’s share price has declined 67% to now trade at $102.67. The San Francisco-based company that specializes in the management of electronic documents and signatures has been pulled down along with other richly valued tech stocks tied to the pandemic.Some analysts say the selloff has been overdone and point to the fact that DocuSign is now a global leader in the e-signature sector with specialized software products and improving margins.The company’s operating margins are forecast to come in at about 18% in the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 8% at the end of 2020. For the entire fourth quarter, DocuSign is forecast to report EPS of $0.47 on revenues of $561.47 million. Wall Street will be looking for signs that DocuSign can sustain its growth long-term once the pandemic is behind us for good.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":257,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9086957154,"gmtCreate":1650412497309,"gmtModify":1676534716787,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/S59.SI\">$SIA ENGINEERING CO LTD(S59.SI)$</a>gogo","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/S59.SI\">$SIA ENGINEERING CO LTD(S59.SI)$</a>gogo","text":"$SIA ENGINEERING CO LTD(S59.SI)$gogo","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/fabd6a3f16b3c4852fc85296a64a2306","width":"1080","height":"2104"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9086957154","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":261,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9035130163,"gmtCreate":1647530233902,"gmtModify":1676534241232,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9035130163","repostId":"1160440619","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1160440619","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1647529518,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1160440619?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-17 23:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What Does Tesla's Delay of Bond Issue Mean for its Stock?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1160440619","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Tesla has delayed issuance of $1 billion of bonds backed by its vehicle leases amid market volatility.When you think about the impact of raging inflation on electric-vehicle maker Tesla(TSLA), it’s na","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Tesla has delayed issuance of $1 billion of bonds backed by its vehicle leases amid market volatility.</p><p>When you think about the impact of raging inflation on electric-vehicle maker Tesla (<b>TSLA</b>), it’s natural to think about the prices of its autos.

Following the release of some underwhelming earnings results, many investors are probably wondering what they should do with shares of the former WallStreetBets darling.A lot of high-multiple tech companies that have clocked in marvellous results have still seen their shares crumble in recent quarters. Undoubtedly, a quarterly flop alongside a broader souring of the tech trade is not where investors want to find themselves these days.Not when so many high-tech firms are continuing to impress in an attempt to offset the longer-term headwind of rising rates. I’m neutral on the stock.Palantir Stock Under PressureHigher rates eat out of the value of unprofitable, high-multiple growth stocks. The higher rates rise, the worse off many of the “story” stocks will be once the U.S. Federal Reserve gets to it.Indeed, Fed chair Jerome Powell has retired his “transitory” viewpoint of inflation. He recognizes the dangers of high and persistent inflation and his tone seemed to give off the impression that the Ukraine-Russia crisis will not prevent him from raising rates this year.The trajectory of rates is enough of a headwind to avoid high-multiple tech stocks like Palantir. Recent quarterly weakness, I believe, is just another reason why it may be better to follow ARK Invest’s Cathie Wood by selling some PLTR stock before the weakness has chance to worsen.Wood isn’t one to sell plunging stocks at a loss if she still believes in its innovative growth story.She’s all about doubling down on innovative companies on the way down. Undoubtedly, such a dip-buying strategy has been questionable thus far. In any case, Wood’s recent ditching of around $123 million worth of Palantir stock should ring some alarm bells.Changes Regarding Palantir’s Growth Narrative?Given Wood’s propensity to buy more shares of companies she believes in on the way down, I do view her selling activity as a cause for concern.For now, I am neutral on the stock given the high multiple (PLTR stock trades at a hefty 14.3 times sales) and modest quarterly miss, which may or may not have been overblown by fearful investors. On the plus side, I don’t think the fourth quarter was as abysmal as some investors believe.Growth and margins could still be poised to ascend from here. Though the earnings miss was underwhelming, I think PLTR stock is on the right track and do not view the narrative as being changed at a fundamental level.The valuation, though, remains suspect and could still leave the stock at risk of substantial downside as investors expect more than just robust top-line growth.While the Palantir quarter was technically a miss, it wasn’t nearly as bad as recent selling pressure would suggest. The 34% pop in year-over-year sales growth was decent, with the Commercial segment doing more than its share of heavy lifting.Looking farther out, the company is still pointing to 30% top-line growth at a minimum through 2025.While margins aren’t where investors want them to be with rates to rise soon, management is still focused on various margin-enhancing initiatives. For long-term investors, that has to be soothing.Wall Street’s TakeAccording to TipRanks’ analyst rating consensus, PLTR stock comes in as a Moderate Sell. Out of eight analyst ratings, there is one Buy recommendation, three Hold recommendations and four Sell recommendations.The average Palantir price target is $13.17, implying an upside of 16.1%. Analyst price targets range from a low of $9 per share to a high of $21 per share.Bottom Line on Palantir StockRising rates, a lack of profits and a hazy growth narrative are not where investors want to be at a time like this. Personally, I think the narrative has not changed nearly as much as the price has.While popular innovation investor Cathie Wood may be wrong to sell shares of PLTR on weakness, I do think there are easier places to make money these days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":158,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9097406497,"gmtCreate":1645519968854,"gmtModify":1676534035331,"author":{"id":"3583784098194208","authorId":"3583784098194208","name":"melissa02q88","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/2064432b6beaf8ec4b6956334dcef871","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583784098194208","authorIdStr":"3583784098194208"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9097406497","repostId":"1149945134","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149945134","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1645517546,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1149945134?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-22 16:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"fuboTV Reports Earnings on Wednesday.

During the fourth quarter, Fubo Gaming, a subsidiary of fuboTV, announced that it is live in the mobile sports betting market with the official launch of Fubo Sportsbook in Iowa.</p><p>Fubo Sportsbook, a subsidiary of fuboTV, entered into a partnership with NASCAR to become an Authorized Gaming Operator (AGO). Per the deal, fubo Sportsbook and NASCAR will work together to provide racing fans with a unique and engaging wagering experience.</p><p>Apart from these, rising advertising demand on the streaming platform along with the ability to stream on multiple devices, is expected to have aided the top line in the to-be-reported quarter.</p><p>The solid momentum of fuboTV’s sports-first live TV streaming platform is expected to have aided paid subscriber growth in the fourth quarter.</p><p>In third-quarter 2021, the company witnessed a 108% year-over-year growth in total paid subscribers, reaching 944,605. The trend is expected to have continued in the to-be-reported quarter.</p><p><b>Margin Improvement Needs to Accelerate</b></p><p>fuboTV CEO, David Gandler,appeared on CNBC to discuss FUBO&#39;s progress in 2021 shortly after the company release their preliminary Q4 results. The key comment comes towards the end of the interview near the 4:00 mark of the video I linked when asked about the path to profitability.</p><blockquote>We have laid out a plan and that plan was to expand our contribution margin every quarter between 100 and 200 basis points. We have been delivering on that. This is not going to happen overnight. As I said, it takes decades for companies to deliver value, but we do have a glide path and will be talking about that glide path in our quarterly earnings in the next couple months.</blockquote><blockquote>Source: David Gandler - Interview with CNBC on 1/10/2022</blockquote><p>It is true that FUBO has been meeting this goal. Most recently, they improved Adjusted Contribution Margin (&#34;ACM&#34;) from 10.5% in 3Q20 to 12.4% in 3Q21.ACM was reported at 10.1% for 2020 so I am looking for them to report better than 14% for 2021 to keep with the minimum of a 100 basis point improvement per quarter.</p><p>Given that ACM is calculated by subtracting Average Cost Per User (ACPU) from Average Revenue Per User (ARPU), this is a metric shareholders should be tracking closely each quarter. It will ultimately tell us how quickly FUBO is working its way towards profitability. However, ACPU only accounts for what the company refers to as &#34;Subscriber Related Expenses&#34; and not all expense categories that would include G&amp;A, Sales &amp; Marketing, Technology, etc. In Q3, Subscriber Related Expenses accounted for 55% of all expenses so there is still ground to make up in the other expense categories as well.</p><p>ACM improvement has primarily benefited from the significant increases in ARPU experienced in the last year, but we should anticipate ARPU growth to slow as subscribership continues to mature. Using an average subscriber number of 1,022,500 for Q4 and indicated revenue up to $220 million, that would deliver an ARPU of $71.92 vs. $62.84 in 4Q2021. At a 14% increase year-over-year, FUBO would have to increase ARPU to $82 in 2022, all else constant. That is a tough stretch with the base subscription starting at $65/month.</p><p>As such, we should be looking for the company to continue to show improvement in driving down Expenses as a Percentage of Revenue which improved from a total of 207% in 3Q20 to 165.5% in 3Q21.</p><p><b>Analyst view</b></p><p>Oppenheimer analyst Jason Helfstein lowered the firm&#39;s price target on FuboTV to $16 from $42 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The analyst highlights FuboTV&#39;s trending toward Q4 subscriber beat on strong NFL viewership, while tougher Q1 comps and management briefly tested quarterly signups. He believes new CFO will provide investors a road-map for profitability on investor day and 30% of total sportsbook registrations in AZ/IA have FuboTV.</p><p>LightShed Partners analyst Richard Greenfield upgraded FuboTV to Neutral from Sell following the stock&#39;s selloff. Fubo shares are down nearly 85% in 13 months while the company is sitting on $375M of cash, Greenfield tells investors in a research note. The analyst is taking a wait and see approach on whether management &#34;abandons their sports betting &#39;fantasy&#39; to reduce the cash burn in 2022 and beyond.&#34; While FuboTV shares &#34;could very well be a zero&#34; in the next 24 months,&#34; the company could also put itself up for sale, writes Greenfield.</p><p>LightShed Partners analyst Richard Greenfield upgraded FuboTV to Neutral from Sell and removed his $6.50 price target.</p><p>Needham analyst Laura Martin lowered the firm&#39;s price target on FuboTV to $15 from $60 but keeps a Buy rating on the shares.

There is much more he could address.</p><p>Over 57 years, Buffett built Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A and BRK.B) into a company with a $700 billion market value—sixth in the U.S. market—and $27 billion of annual operating earnings. Yet our view has been that he now needs to do more to prepare for the transition to a new generation of leadership at Berkshire.</p><p>Stepping down as CEO while remaining chairman would allow his heir apparent, Greg Abel, to demonstrate that he can handle the tough job of running a giant conglomerate.</p><p>At a time when investors favor more-focused businesses, there will be pressure almost immediately to break up the company, post-Buffett.

The only major acquisition—a $32 billion deal for aircraft-parts maker Precision Castparts in 2016—has been a loser. Buffett has had two investment coups, a $31 billion investment in Apple (AAPL) that is up fivefold and an investment in Bank of America (BAC) now worth about $50 billion, up threefold.</p><p>In recent years, however, he has turned very cautious as an investor.

There is much more he could address.Over 57 years, Buffett built Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A and BRK.B) into a company with a $700 billion market value—sixth in the U.S. market—and $27 billion of annual operating earnings. Yet our view has been that he now needs to do more to prepare for the transition to a new generation of leadership at Berkshire.Stepping down as CEO while remaining chairman would allow his heir apparent, Greg Abel, to demonstrate that he can handle the tough job of running a giant conglomerate.At a time when investors favor more-focused businesses, there will be pressure almost immediately to break up the company, post-Buffett. Keeping Berkshire together, Buffett has said, provides tax and other benefits. The past decade has been one of missed opportunities. The only major acquisition—a $32 billion deal for aircraft-parts maker Precision Castparts in 2016—has been a loser. Buffett has had two investment coups, a $31 billion investment in Apple (AAPL) that is up fivefold and an investment in Bank of America (BAC) now worth about $50 billion, up threefold.In recent years, however, he has turned very cautious as an investor. He failed to capitalize on the pandemic-driven selloff in stocks, ignoring his own maxim to “befearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful.”Since March 2020, Berkshire has been a net seller of stocks, including a badly timed near-complete liquidation of an 8% holding in Wells Fargo (WFC) at what we estimate was half of Wells Fargo’s current price of $56—leaving $10 billion on the table.
