The earning beats were tempered by Meta recording its slowest revenue growth in a decade.Facebook daily active users were 1.96 billion, slightly higher than the estimate of 1.95 billion. Monthly active users came in at 2.94 billion, missing Wall Street estimates by 30 million.Total revenue, the bulk of which comes from ad sales, rose 7% to $27.91 billion in the first quarter, but missed analysts' estimates of $28.20 billion.Meta's Q2 Earnings Expected to Decline YoYThe market expects Meta Platforms  to deliver a year-over-year decline in earnings on lower revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2022. The company has mentioned that Q2 sales projections were on the lower side ($28b to $30b), which would represent a YoY decline for the very first time in Meta's history.This widely-known consensus outlook is important in assessing the company's earnings picture, but a powerful factor that might influence its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.Slowing Growth in Ad RevenueMeta's ability to generate sales through advertising on its platforms has cemented the company as one of the largest tech powerhouses in the world today. However, many questions are being asked about the slowing growth in such metrics.While we see the clear exponential growth in the earlier years, we're also starting to see slowing growth in ad revenue and total sales in the later years. This is largely due to slowing user growth which may have arisen due to intense competition in the industry, or other possible concerns. The fall-off in growth has raised many eyebrows, with analysts downgrading the stock as it no longer seems to be a good value play in the long term.Besides, the intensifying geopolitical situations, such as the Ukraine war and the raging inflationary environment also impacted Meta's advertising business. These challenges might explain the recent weak revenue growth rate of 7% year over year in the first quarter of 2022.Considering the previous user growth rates that Meta was at, this social media company is bound to see a fall-off - and it's not just the fact that there are competitors gaining market share, but also because there's an absolute limit to how far we can go in terms of user growth, because they're only that many people (with internet access) in the world. Meta has grown to a point where it has almost 2 billion daily users on the Facebook platform.For some reference, there is an estimated total of 5 billion people in the world who use the internet today, which means that 40% of the internet-using global population are on Facebook every day. As such, the company or its platforms are not \"dead\" by any means, and to say that slowing user growth means that investing in Meta is a bad decision is rather myopic. Another important metric we could consider is the average revenue per user (ARPU), which can definitely be maximized to get the company's revenue back on track.We see that the ARPU is still on a steady rise. In other words, the company is earning more from each user, though we may be seeing slowing growth in total sales due to a decline in users. With appropriate steps taken in the direction of research and innovation, Meta could stay on track and gain more in sales despite the slowing user growth. However, whether Meta can do this is a question that remains unanswered. We'll go deeper into this as we progress through the article.Uncertainty From Strategic Decision on the MetaverseAnother concern for investors is Meta's strategic decision to bet the ship on the metaverse. In theory, the shift makes perfect sense. After all, there seems to be no limit to the potential of the metaverse, which, if successful, will create a whole new income stream for the company. Management is betting heavily on this young venture, investing more than $10 billion alone in 2021.But make no mistake: Meta's bet on the metaverse remains a moonshot. Nobody knows how this industry will evolve or the company's role in this new industry. Moreover, while Meta can afford to spend heavily -- thanks to the profitability of its advertising business -- it is far from certain that these investments will create value for shareholders in the long run. Worse, this new venture could take too much of management's attention, causing them to neglect the existing golden goose.One of the biggest talking points about Meta is its huge investment in the metaverse. For those of you who don't exactly know what the metaverse is, it is a network of 3D virtual worlds focused on social connection\".So, how does Meta plan to be involved? Meta has invested a massive $10b into the metaverse, and it turns out that Mark Zuckerberg has an entire line of projects planned out as he believes that it will be a huge part of our lives in the future.Horizon Worlds is Meta's virtual reality (VR) social platform, and it functions as a virtual world where users are able to carry out daily activities such as interacting with people, attending meetings, commerce etc. with the help of the Quest VR headset. Meta intends to continue improving the platform by introducing more features and regulating inappropriate actions so that Horizon Worlds eventually becomes a safe space detached from reality where people are able to do things seamlessly in an interactive and customizable virtual world. In February 2022 this year, the platform hit 300000 users, which is a tenfold increase compared to the same number three months prior to that. In addition, Meta plans to release this platform for mobile phone users.Analyst OpinionsA consensus of analysts expects Meta to earn $2.56 per share on $29.01B in revenue for the second quarter.According to Zacks Consensus Estimate, This social media company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $2.51 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -30.5%.Revenues are expected to be $28.92 billion, down 0.6% from the year-ago quarter.Credit Suisse analyst Stephen Ju maintained Meta Platforms with an Outperform rating and cut the price target from $273 to $245.His checks indicate an in-line Q2, with growth expectations for the second half of 2022 moving lower on the macro backdrop, with flattish quarter-over-quarter budget growth from Q2 to Q3.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9034943822,"gmtCreate":1647772977311,"gmtModify":1676534264734,"author":{"id":"3584160346070495","authorId":"3584160346070495","name":"GM2","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Motley Fool is taking Hedge Fund's side.

Contracts tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.4%, while those tied to the technology-focused Nasdaq-100 added 0.6%.Major U.S. indexes on Tuesday posted their steepest one-day losses since June 2020 as investors responded to the release of U.S. inflation data, which showed a key measure ofU.S. consumer prices had increased sharply from the previous month. That curbed hopes the Federal Reserve might slow its aggressive pace of interest-rate increases.On a monthly basis, the U.S. core consumer-price index, which excludes food and energy costs, rose 0.6% in August—double the pace of July’s increase. Headline CPI rose 8.3% in August from the same time a year earlier. That was down from 8.5% in July and 9.1% in June.“I don’t think that a bad print of the CPI warrants this extreme reaction,” said Peter Andersen, founder of Boston-based investment firm Andersen Capital Management, referring to the sharp selloff in U.S. stocks. “When you look at data like this, if it isn’t a consistent straight line or improvement, I don’t think it means that we’re not progressing,” he added.The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note edged higher to 3.427% from 3.422% Tuesday. Meanwhile, the yield on the two-year note, which is more sensitive to near-term rate expectations, rose to 3.769%, from 3.754%.The previous day’s increase in bond yields, which move in the opposite direction to prices, was another indication that investors expect more upward pressure on interest rates after the inflation data. The Fed’s interest-rate-setting committee is set to meet next week.Overseas, major stock indexes fell, following the selloff in the U.S. In Europe, the pan-continental Stoxx Europe 600 lost 0.2%. London’s FTSE 100 fell 0.9%, despite new data that showed that U.K. inflation eased slightly in August, due to lower gasoline prices.In Asia, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index lost 2.5%, and the CSI 300 index of the largest stocks listed in Shanghai and Shenzhen was down 1.1%.

Still, the stock looks like it's due for a pause.\"Tesla is into resistance at the $200 level, former support, from where it broke down in early November,\" says John Roque, senior managing director at 22V Research and market technician. \"Former support often becomes new resistance.\"Roque isn't a fundamental analyst. His is looking at stock charts to figure out investor sentiment and what could happen next. He is also the technical analyst who thought Tesla stock would approach $100, which they did in early January.\"The preceding crash and current spike have been as symmetrical as possible over a two-month time frame,\" says CappThesis founder and market technician Frank Cappelleri. \"The downturn got the stock overly depressed, and the subsequent four-week rally also appears overextended short term.\"He also believes Tesla stock is due for a pause, calling shares overbought. That's a term technicians uses to describe a situation when stocks rise a lot over a short period of time. At certain levels, it can mean all the buying is done, for a while.A pause for a technician can last anywhere from two weeks to two months. Typically something new has to happen to shake the stock out of a trading band.One thing that could do that is the company's coming investor event on March 1. Management should be talking about new platforms, plants and the coming Cybertruck there.Maybe Tesla stock should pause, but it doesn't obey all the rules. Shares are still about $24, or 10%, below the level where Tesla CEO Elon Musk bought Twitter. Late in 2022 he said he would find a new leader for his social media network. If he does, it could give Tesla shares a boost.Tesla investors have been worried that Musk hasn't been able to fully focus on Tesla because of Twitter. Investors have also worried that Musk would sell Tesla stock to fund losses at Twitter. Musk tweeted on Feb. 5 that Twitter was approaching break-even. That reduces the likelihood of future Tesla stock sales. Tesla stock is up about 6% since then. The Nasdaq Composite is down about 2% over the same span.The $225 level is also very close to the stock's 200-day moving average. That would be another level of resistance for investors to consider what comes next.Barron's wrote positively about Tesla stock on Jan. 6. Since that article appeared, shares are up about 78%.We also recently suggested taking some profits. We still feel that it's appropriate to lock in some gains. Tesla is a volatile stock, and banking some profits after run-ups can help investors weather the inevitable ups and downs of investing alongside Musk.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":147,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957933663,"gmtCreate":1676873138252,"gmtModify":1676873143257,"author":{"id":"3584160346070495","authorId":"3584160346070495","name":"GM2","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Would AI make us (humans) redundant in the workforce one day? if that's the case, whyare we moving in this direction of apparent&nbsp;self elimination?","listText":"Would AI make us (humans) redundant in the workforce one day? if that's the case, whyare we moving in this direction of apparent&nbsp;self elimination?","text":"Would AI make us (humans) redundant in the workforce one day? if that's the case, whyare we moving in this direction of apparent self elimination?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957933663","repostId":"2312002802","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2312002802","pubTimestamp":1676872685,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2312002802?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-02-20 13:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"ChatGPT Mania: 3 Stocks With the Most to Lose","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2312002802","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"ChatGPT's 100 million users should be a shot across the bow.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Artificial intelligence has been a mainstream idea for years, going back to the days of the <i>Terminator </i>movies, where humanity and machines waged war.

At the same time, metals investor Eric Sprott invested a similar amount into Hycroft.</p><p>CEO Adam Aron said AMC&#39;s own near-death experience has made it willing and able to help other businesses also knocking at death&#39;s door.</p><blockquote>In recent years, however, AMC Entertainment has had enormous success and demonstrated expertise in guiding a company with otherwise valuable assets through a time of severe liquidity challenge, the raising of capital, and strengthening of balance sheets, as well as communicating with individual retail investors. It is all that experience and skill that we bring to the table to assist the talented mining professionals at Hycroft.</blockquote><p>However, investors should be even more wary of investing in AMC than they were before.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b91324299e2d93c69b03bc2d25d8525\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1330\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p><b>In the pits</b></p><p>AMC is not healthy. Despite having established significant liquidity by using its meme stock popularity to raise cash, the movie industry has not recovered. There are fewer movies planned for release in 2022, and that will result in even lower theater attendance than was the case even before the pandemic. So taking resources away from bolstering the business is more than just surprising.</p><p>More so because Hycroft Mining is not an active miner. It ceased operations at its only mine in Nevada last November, saying it wanted to switch to building a mill to process gold and silver sulfide ore.</p><p>The problem is, Hycroft hasn&#39;t even done a feasibility study on whether the method Hycroft wants to use to process the ore will even work or is economically feasible. It says its previous plan for using a novel two-stage sulfide heap oxidation and leach process is not economical at current metal prices, so it will instead consider using an alternative process, though it&#39;s not yet proven it can be workable at a commercial scale.</p><p>AMC, however, says third-party analyses confirm Hycroft has &#34;rock-solid assets,&#34; with 15 million ounces of gold deposits and around 600 million ounces of silver deposits at its Nevada mine.</p><p><b>Hoping something sticks</b></p><p>Investing $28 million in a defunct gold miner when you have $1.8 billion sitting in the bank is in itself not much of an issue. Even if the whole enterprise goes belly up, it&#39;s not going to severely affect the company, and if it&#39;s successful, it may make some money on the deal. So why not, right?</p><p>The problem arises from the mindset behind such an investment. The scattershot approach to trying something --<i>anything!</i>-- to get some kind of a return that&#39;s completely unrelated to your core competency indicates your actual business is not worth investing in.</p><p>Buying a business in which you have no knowledge or understanding of the industry, only that it looks kind of similar to the situation you found yourself in, is hardly the way to be using shareholder resources.</p><p>Aron has indicated he wants to think outside the box when it comes to reviving AMC, and not all of the options involve movies per se.</p><p>For example, Aron recently revealed six strategies he saw AMC undertaking that included developing non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, and selling popcorn in retail stores. He did say he wanted to make more acquisitions, but I suspect most people thought he meant in line with the theater chain acquisitions he previously made.

At the same time, metals investor Eric Sprott invested a similar amount into Hycroft.CEO Adam Aron said AMC's own near-death experience has made it willing and able to help other businesses also knocking at death's door.In recent years, however, AMC Entertainment has had enormous success and demonstrated expertise in guiding a company with otherwise valuable assets through a time of severe liquidity challenge, the raising of capital, and strengthening of balance sheets, as well as communicating with individual retail investors. It is all that experience and skill that we bring to the table to assist the talented mining professionals at Hycroft.However, investors should be even more wary of investing in AMC than they were before.Image source: Getty Images.In the pitsAMC is not healthy. Despite having established significant liquidity by using its meme stock popularity to raise cash, the movie industry has not recovered. There are fewer movies planned for release in 2022, and that will result in even lower theater attendance than was the case even before the pandemic. So taking resources away from bolstering the business is more than just surprising.More so because Hycroft Mining is not an active miner. It ceased operations at its only mine in Nevada last November, saying it wanted to switch to building a mill to process gold and silver sulfide ore.The problem is, Hycroft hasn't even done a feasibility study on whether the method Hycroft wants to use to process the ore will even work or is economically feasible. It says its previous plan for using a novel two-stage sulfide heap oxidation and leach process is not economical at current metal prices, so it will instead consider using an alternative process, though it's not yet proven it can be workable at a commercial scale.AMC, however, says third-party analyses confirm Hycroft has \"rock-solid assets,\" with 15 million ounces of gold deposits and around 600 million ounces of silver deposits at its Nevada mine.Hoping something sticksInvesting $28 million in a defunct gold miner when you have $1.8 billion sitting in the bank is in itself not much of an issue. Even if the whole enterprise goes belly up, it's not going to severely affect the company, and if it's successful, it may make some money on the deal. So why not, right?The problem arises from the mindset behind such an investment. The scattershot approach to trying something --anything!-- to get some kind of a return that's completely unrelated to your core competency indicates your actual business is not worth investing in.Buying a business in which you have no knowledge or understanding of the industry, only that it looks kind of similar to the situation you found yourself in, is hardly the way to be using shareholder resources.Aron has indicated he wants to think outside the box when it comes to reviving AMC, and not all of the options involve movies per se.For example, Aron recently revealed six strategies he saw AMC undertaking that included developing non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, and selling popcorn in retail stores. He did say he wanted to make more acquisitions, but I suspect most people thought he meant in line with the theater chain acquisitions he previously made. Buying a gold and silver miner was probably not on anyone's bingo card.Suspicious trading activityThe investment is likely to get SEC scrutiny too. CNBC reports there was highly unusual trading occurring in the days just preceding the announcement of the investment.It says analysis of FactSet data shows the 90-day average trading volume of Hycroft stock was around 355,000 shares prior to the news, but the day before, it spiked to 58.6 million shares, bringing the 90-day average up to 10.5 million shares.Indeed, last Friday, trading surged to 340 million shares, or five times greater than Hycroft's outstanding share count, and its stock rocketed from $0.30 a share to $1.40 the day before AMC announced its investment, a better than four-fold increase in price.Fool's goldInvesting legend Peter Lynch had a word for when companies go far afield like this: \"de-worsi-fication.\"In a bid to engage in a bit of empire building, CEOs graft wildly unrelated businesses onto their operations, ones that do nothing to strengthen the primary company -- and they tend to end badly.There was a lot to make investors cautious about taking a stake in AMC Entertainment before this.
