Over time, today&#39;s largest companies by market cap are liable to be replaced by new and innovative businesses.</p><p>For instance, only one of the 10 largest publicly traded companies in 1999 is still among the top 10 by market cap today (<b>Microsoft</b>). The other nine stocks, which included the likes of <b>Nokia</b> and <b>AIG</b>, have fallen far down the list.</p><p>The same fate may await tech kingpin <b>Apple</b>.</p><h2>Apple sits a top Wall Street&#39;s pedestal... for now</h2><p>For the time being, Apple sits on a pedestal above all other U.S.-listed stocks with a market cap of more than $2.4 trillion -- and it&#39;s not hard to understand why. To begin with, Apple has one of the most-recognized brands in the world, as well as a highly loyal customer base. Anytime a new product launches, it&#39;s not uncommon to see lines wrapped around Apple&#39;s retail stores.</p><p>To build on this point, the company holds half of the U.S. smartphone market share, according to data from Counterpoint, which demonstrates how innovation has driven consumers to the iPhone brand for well over a decade. Furthermore, Apple CEO Tim Cook is overseeing a steady operating transition that emphasizes subscription services over physical products. While this doesn&#39;t mean Apple is giving up on iPhone and Mac innovation, it simply means the company is focusing on higher-margin, loyalty-building subscriptions that diversify its revenue stream and make product-replacement cycles less turbulent.</p><h2>These could be the world&#39;s largest stocks by 2040</h2><p>But even Apple isn&#39;t perfect. The company&#39;s sales growth has slowed considerably, and persistent share buybacks are accounting for a significant portion of forecast earnings growth. It&#39;s plausible that Apple&#39;s best days are now in the rearview mirror. What follows are three stocks that could, under the right circumstances, leapfrog Apple in market cap by or before 2040.</p><h2>The no-brainer choice: Amazon</h2><p>Although Microsoft is a legitimate choice to overtake Apple in market value in the next 18 years, it&#39;s e-commerce behemoth <b>Amazon</b> that looks like the no-brainer selection to potentially become the world&#39;s largest stock by market cap.</p><p>As many of you are probably aware, Amazon is the undisputed leader in online retail sales. A March 2022 report from eMarketer estimates that the company will bring in 39.5% of all U.S. online spending this year. That&#39;s more than 8 percentage points higher than No. 2 through No. 15 in market share, <i>combined</i>!</p><p>Such online retail domination is what&#39;s helped the company sign up 200 million people worldwide to a Prime membership. The annual fees collected from Prime members plays a key role in helping Amazon undercut traditional retailers on price, as well as supports investments in its vast logistics network.</p><p>However, online retail isn&#39;t the catalyst that could allow Amazon to surpass Apple. That distinction goes to its cloud infrastructure service segment, Amazon Web Services (AWS), which accounts for about a third of global cloud infrastructure spending.</p><p>More importantly, cloud spending is still in its early innings, with cloud services yielding considerably higher operating margins than online retail. Hypothetically speaking, Amazon&#39;s retail sales could shrink, yet the company&#39;s operating cash flow would continue rising due to steady double-digit growth in AWS.</p><p>In addition to AWS, Amazon is benefiting from double-digit sales growth in its other higher-margin operating segments, such as advertising and subscription services. As long as the cash-cow segments continue to outperform, Amazon has a reasonably good chance of overtaking Apple well before 2040.</p><h2>If everything went just right: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></h2><p>Another stock with the tools and intangibles necessary to surpass Apple in market value by or before 2040 is <b>Meta Platforms</b>, the company previously known as Facebook. But unlike Amazon, it&#39;ll need a few dominoes to fall its way to overtake Apple.</p><p>Even though social media stocks have been exceptionally volatile of late, Meta is the clear leader in the industry. Its social destinations (Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram) are consistently among the most downloaded. When the first quarter came to a close, Meta&#39;s family of apps counted 3.64 billion monthly active users.</p><p>Put another way, over half the adult population in the world interacts with a Meta-owned asset each month. That&#39;s plenty of incentive for businesses to pay top dollar to get their messages in front of users.</p><p>What&#39;s more, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg hasn&#39;t meaningfully monetized all of his company&#39;s core assets. The vast majority of Meta&#39;s ad revenue derives from Facebook and Instagram. If and when the company opens the spigot for Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp, Meta&#39;s growth and operating cash flow can push into a higher gear.</p><p>The real wildcard for Meta Platforms is the development and evolution of the metaverse -- i.e., the next iteration of the internet, which allows connected users to interact with each other and their environment in 3D virtual worlds. Meta plans to invest tens of billions of dollars in the metaverse, with the expectation of becoming a leader in what could well be a multitrillion-dollar opportunity. The unknown here is how long it&#39;ll take to get the infrastructure needed to support the metaverse in place.</p><p>If the metaverse ultimately matures faster than expected, and Meta Platforms becomes one of the on-ramps to virtual and augmented reality, it could have a clear path to overtake Apple.</p><h2>The long shot: Sea Limited</h2><p>If you want a true longshot that can surpass Apple in under two decades, consider Singapore-based conglomerate <b>Sea Limited</b>.</p><p>Sea is a long shot for a couple of reasons. For starters, it trails Apple by a mile in valuation ($46.4 billion market cap vs. Apple&#39;s $2.42 trillion). The company is also losing quite a bit of money as it reinvests in its three core operating segments.</p><p>Whereas Apple brought in north of $116 billion in operating cash flow over the trailing-12-month period, Sea endured an operating cash <i>outflow</i> of $833.3 million in the comparable time frame. But over the next 18 years, Sea could deliver eye-popping sales and (eventually) profit growth.</p><p>At the moment, Sea&#39;s gaming division, known as Garena, is the only segment producing positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Mobile game <i>Free Fire </i>has been a global hit, with close to 616 million people actively playing it and other mobile games during the first quarter.</p><p>What&#39;s important is that 10% of these quarterly active users are paying to play. This pay-to-play conversion ratio is many multiples higher than the industry average.</p><p>The second operating segment of interest is digital financial services. The number of quarterly active users accessing its SeaMoney products and services, such as digital wallets, grew 78% through March 31, 2022 to 49 million. A number of markets Sea is focused on have limited access to basic banking solutions. Thus, providing access to banking solutions via digital wallets could be a game changer for Sea and its emerging-market customers.</p><p>Lastly, Sea has a burgeoning online retail-sales segment, known as Shopee, which has consistently been the most downloaded shopping app in Southeastern Asia. The company has made sizable inroads in Brazil, as well.</p><p>After overseeing $10 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) traverse its e-commerce platform in all of 2018, the company oversaw $17.4 billion in GMV in just the first three months of 2022. With online ordering still in its infancy in faster-growing emerging-market countries, Sea has an opportunity to capitalize and become wildly profitable over time.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Stocks That Could Be Worth More Than Apple by 2040</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Stocks That Could Be Worth More Than Apple by 2040\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-01 14:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/05/31/3-stocks-could-be-worth-more-than-apple-by-2040/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Wall Street tends to offer only one guarantee: change.

Insiders","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Stocks plummeted in recent weeks but corporate insiders are still keeping to the sidelines. Insiders at small-cap firms are a key exception.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 index has fallen 17% this year, repeatedly tiptoeing near bear-market territory. Ben Silverman, director of research at investment research and analytics firm Verity, says insiders at S&amp;P 500 firms are acting the same as they had in the first quarter: playing a game of wait and see.</p><p>There were 272 insider sellers at S&amp;P 500 firms in April compared with 32 buyers, according to data provided by Verity. More than midway through May, there were 225 sellers and 42 buyers, which means there were 5.36 sellers for every buyer. Insiders, such as corporate executives and board members, must disclose their stock trades with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</p><p>“Insiders there are, by and large, not buying,” Silverman says. “More positively, we are still seeing lower-than-typical levels of selling. There’s this unwillingness to accept the current valuations and generate liquidity at these valuations.”</p><p>Silverman sees more positive signs for stocks in the Russell 2000. Last month, there were 388 sellers and 105 buyers in April at Russell 2000 firms, but that’s flipped so far in May, where recently there were 327 sellers to 395 buyers.

Insiders at small-cap firms are a key exception.The S&P 500 index has fallen 17% this year, repeatedly tiptoeing near bear-market territory. Ben Silverman, director of research at investment research and analytics firm Verity, says insiders at S&P 500 firms are acting the same as they had in the first quarter: playing a game of wait and see.There were 272 insider sellers at S&P 500 firms in April compared with 32 buyers, according to data provided by Verity. More than midway through May, there were 225 sellers and 42 buyers, which means there were 5.36 sellers for every buyer. Insiders, such as corporate executives and board members, must disclose their stock trades with the Securities and Exchange Commission.“Insiders there are, by and large, not buying,” Silverman says. “More positively, we are still seeing lower-than-typical levels of selling. There’s this unwillingness to accept the current valuations and generate liquidity at these valuations.”Silverman sees more positive signs for stocks in the Russell 2000. Last month, there were 388 sellers and 105 buyers in April at Russell 2000 firms, but that’s flipped so far in May, where recently there were 327 sellers to 395 buyers. If such levels hold, it’d be the first month with more buyers than sellers since pandemic lows in March 2020.For the week ended May 17, there were 281 buyers—the most since the week ended May 19, 2020.

The one-year average is 0.7 to 0.8, meaning there were typically more sellers than buyers.Silverman says he’s encouraged that insiders at small-cap firms are buying. He notes that we’re in the early stages of insider season, when quarterly trading windows are open at most firms.“We’d like to this number continue to grow or at least not decline significantly because historically we’ve seen buying momentum either sustain or build over a three-to-five week period near market bottoms,” Silverman says.At the sector level, Silverman sees buying momentum in the industrial goods space, including transportation, machinery, and electronic equipment firms.

However, investors should not be rushing to play the earnings game, considering the macro pessimism. Furthermore, given how NVDA had been closely tied to the cryptocurrency mining, we may expect reduced sales moving forward, seeing how the whole market had lost over $1T of combined value in recent days.</p><p>However, we encourage NVDA investors to ignore the noise as the stock remains a solid investment for the next decade. Nonetheless, please do not buy the dip as we expect the stock to retrace in the next few weeks, as the market grapples with the macro pessimism and crypto crash.</p><p><b>Why Did NVDA Fall From Grace?</b></p><p><b>NVDA Revenue, Net Income, and Gross Margin</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7c8b7f527622943487f298f58aec0a8f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Pre-pandemic, NVDA had grown its revenue and net income at a steady CAGR of 16.44% and 18.9%. It obviously grew exponentially in the past two years, given the massive demand for personal devices due to the increased remote work/ study/ entertainment options during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, NVDA grew its revenues at a tremendous CAGR of 57.05%, while its net income rose even faster at a CAGR of 86.94%. The company also steadily improved its gross margins from 58.8% in FY2017 to 64.9% in FY2022.</p><p><b>NVDA 5Y Stock Price</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41f98282f6ea46ae8ad6b84c285f70dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"229\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>As a result, it is evident that NVDA investors had benefited from its stellar growth, given that the stock had risen by 580% in the past two years, before the drastic moderation that occurred in late 2021.</p><p><b>NVDA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E Valuations</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb56f00646af22e85bd8a43914c1b14a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"228\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p><p>However, we believe that the market correction is expected, given that NVDA was trading at ridiculous valuations at its peak, with EV/NTM Revenue of 28x and NTM P/E of 72.98x. That is way higher than Intel&#39;s (INTC) valuation of EV/NTM Revenue of 4.19x and NTM P/E of 15.47x in the past three years, and even AMD (AMD) at 10.59x and 65.39x, respectively. In hindsight, it is evident that NVDA has been highly (maybe over) valued, given its exposure to multiple market segments, such as AI technology, autonomous EVs, cloud computing servers, cryptocurrency, and metaverse, amongst others.</p><p>Nonetheless, we may also see a short-term impact, given Meta&#39;s (FB) slowing investments in the Reality Labs ( metaverse),reduced demand for GPUs from the crypto mining, and impacted auto production outputs from China&#39;s Zero Covid Policy. As a result, given the uncertainties, we expect the pain to continue for a while longer as the market consolidates in the next few quarters.</p><p>In the meantime, we encourage you to read our previous article on NVDA, which would help you better understand its market opportunities in the AI technology, automotive, and data center industries.</p><p><b>NVDA Is Still Investing In Growth, Though We See Short-Term Impacts</b></p><p><b>NVDA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF Margins</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fdb6487d84c744bc4e43411a3930b4d1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Nonetheless, NVDA has been an excellent Free Cash Flow (FCF) generator, while reporting its record-breaking FCF of $8.13B and FCF margins of 30.2% in FY2022. The company also ended the year with a decent $1.99B of cash and equivalents, which will prove helpful for its expanding R&amp;D expenses at an average of 21.5% to its annual revenues in the past five years.</p><p><b>NVDA R&amp;D Expenses and % to Revenue</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2295ab78fcdb724f700193b47538ade\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Assuming that NVDA continues its reinvestments, we may expect the company to spend up to $7.4B in R&amp;D expenses for FY2023. As an investor myself, I believe that high-growth tech companies, such as NVDA, should build up their future capabilities and product innovations, to keep their advantage in the highly competitive semiconductor industry moving forward. Nonetheless, the risks are also inherent that many companies may slow down their Capex investments in the next few quarters, given the impending recession and rising interest rates. Consequently, NVDA may also reduce its R&amp;D expenses for the short term, given the potential deceleration in revenue growth.</p><p><b>NVDA Projected Revenue and Net Income</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2badc1948a2e2ab65b118973f20c6a4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Over the next three years, NVDA is expected to report impressive revenue and net income growth at a CAGR of 18.99% and 27.19%, respectively. For FY2023, consensus estimates that the company will report revenues of $34.77B and a net income of $14.39B, representing remarkable YoY growth of 29.2% and 47.5%, respectively.</p><p>Investors will be looking closely at NVDA&#39;s FQ1&#39;23 performance, in which it had guided for revenues of $8.1B and gross margins of 65.2%. Assuming that the company successfully smashed its own and consensus estimates of $8.09B, we can be sure of a short-term recovery. However, it is also important to note that NVDA is expected to record a one-time write-off worth $1.36B for the quarter, due to the collapse of the ARM acquisition. In addition, given the quarter&#39;s exposure to the prolonged lockdowns in China, NVDA&#39;s revenue may also be impacted negatively. As a result, we expect a mixed FQ1&#39;23 performance, potentially leading to a further decline in its stock performance. We shall see.</p><p><b>So, Is NVDA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</b></p><p>NVDA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 11.93x, and NTM P/E of 30x, lower than its 5Y mean of 13.34x and 39.91x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $171.24 on 19 May 2022, down 50% from 52 weeks high of $346.47. Given the recent market pessimism, there is a likelihood that the stock may retrace further below its 52 weeks low of $135.43 in the next few days, before recovering upon a positive catalyst, namely its FQ1&#39;23 earnings call on 25 May 2022.</p><p>Even then, the NVDA stock could potentially remain stagnant post-earnings, similar to its peer, AMD. The latter had reported stellar FQ1&#39;22 earnings, while also raising its FY2022 guidance. In response, the stock rose by 9% from $91.13 to $99.42 on 3 May 2022, before drifting sideways for the next two weeks to reach $96.67 on 19 May 2022. We can be sure that if such an upbeat earnings call had occurred during the heights of the pandemic, AMD would have seen a more pronounced growth in valuation and stock price, similar to the 25% growth after FQ3&#39;21 earnings and 15% growth after FQ2&#39;21 earnings. As a result, interested tech investors must be aware that we are in the midst of maximum pain, significantly worsened by the cryptocurrency winter, the ongoing Ukraine war, and China&#39;s Zero Covid Policy.</p><p>Given the uncertainties and reasons listed above, we may expect softer FQ2&#39;23 guidance from NVDA&#39;s management as well. Though the stock may seem an attractive buy at its current &#34;undervaluation,&#34; given its growth potential and promising pipeline, we would encourage prudence for now. We expect a more attractive entry point moving forward, after more clarity from its FQ1&#39;23 earnings call. Patient investors will be awarded.</p><p>Therefore, we <i>rate NVDA stock as a Hold for now.</i></p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Nvidia: Ridiculous Times Indeed</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\">\nNvidia: Ridiculous Times Indeed\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-22 12:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryA friendly reminder that Nvidia will be reporting FQ1'23 earnings on 25 May 2022.In light of macro issues and the collapse of the cryptocurrency market, we expect short-term pain ahead.As a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"英伟达"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2237028702","content_text":"SummaryA friendly reminder that Nvidia will be reporting FQ1'23 earnings on 25 May 2022.In light of macro issues and the collapse of the cryptocurrency market, we expect short-term pain ahead.As a result, we encourage patience for NVDA investors for now, given the recent market consolidation.Diamond Dogs/iStock via Getty ImagesInvestment ThesisNvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is expected to report earnings for FQ1'23 on 25 May 2022.

Nonetheless, please do not buy the dip as we expect the stock to retrace in the next few weeks, as the market grapples with the macro pessimism and crypto crash.Why Did NVDA Fall From Grace?NVDA Revenue, Net Income, and Gross MarginS&P Capital IQPre-pandemic, NVDA had grown its revenue and net income at a steady CAGR of 16.44% and 18.9%. It obviously grew exponentially in the past two years, given the massive demand for personal devices due to the increased remote work/ study/ entertainment options during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, NVDA grew its revenues at a tremendous CAGR of 57.05%, while its net income rose even faster at a CAGR of 86.94%. The company also steadily improved its gross margins from 58.8% in FY2017 to 64.9% in FY2022.NVDA 5Y Stock PriceSeeking AlphaAs a result, it is evident that NVDA investors had benefited from its stellar growth, given that the stock had risen by 580% in the past two years, before the drastic moderation that occurred in late 2021.NVDA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E ValuationsS&P Capital IQHowever, we believe that the market correction is expected, given that NVDA was trading at ridiculous valuations at its peak, with EV/NTM Revenue of 28x and NTM P/E of 72.98x. That is way higher than Intel's (INTC) valuation of EV/NTM Revenue of 4.19x and NTM P/E of 15.47x in the past three years, and even AMD (AMD) at 10.59x and 65.39x, respectively. In hindsight, it is evident that NVDA has been highly (maybe over) valued, given its exposure to multiple market segments, such as AI technology, autonomous EVs, cloud computing servers, cryptocurrency, and metaverse, amongst others.Nonetheless, we may also see a short-term impact, given Meta's (FB) slowing investments in the Reality Labs ( metaverse),reduced demand for GPUs from the crypto mining, and impacted auto production outputs from China's Zero Covid Policy. As a result, given the uncertainties, we expect the pain to continue for a while longer as the market consolidates in the next few quarters.In the meantime, we encourage you to read our previous article on NVDA, which would help you better understand its market opportunities in the AI technology, automotive, and data center industries.NVDA Is Still Investing In Growth, Though We See Short-Term ImpactsNVDA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF MarginsS&P Capital IQNonetheless, NVDA has been an excellent Free Cash Flow (FCF) generator, while reporting its record-breaking FCF of $8.13B and FCF margins of 30.2% in FY2022. The company also ended the year with a decent $1.99B of cash and equivalents, which will prove helpful for its expanding R&D expenses at an average of 21.5% to its annual revenues in the past five years.NVDA R&D Expenses and % to RevenueS&P Capital IQAssuming that NVDA continues its reinvestments, we may expect the company to spend up to $7.4B in R&D expenses for FY2023. As an investor myself, I believe that high-growth tech companies, such as NVDA, should build up their future capabilities and product innovations, to keep their advantage in the highly competitive semiconductor industry moving forward. Nonetheless, the risks are also inherent that many companies may slow down their Capex investments in the next few quarters, given the impending recession and rising interest rates. Consequently, NVDA may also reduce its R&D expenses for the short term, given the potential deceleration in revenue growth.NVDA Projected Revenue and Net IncomeS&P Capital IQOver the next three years, NVDA is expected to report impressive revenue and net income growth at a CAGR of 18.99% and 27.19%, respectively. For FY2023, consensus estimates that the company will report revenues of $34.77B and a net income of $14.39B, representing remarkable YoY growth of 29.2% and 47.5%, respectively.Investors will be looking closely at NVDA's FQ1'23 performance, in which it had guided for revenues of $8.1B and gross margins of 65.2%. Assuming that the company successfully smashed its own and consensus estimates of $8.09B, we can be sure of a short-term recovery. However, it is also important to note that NVDA is expected to record a one-time write-off worth $1.36B for the quarter, due to the collapse of the ARM acquisition. In addition, given the quarter's exposure to the prolonged lockdowns in China, NVDA's revenue may also be impacted negatively. As a result, we expect a mixed FQ1'23 performance, potentially leading to a further decline in its stock performance. We shall see.So, Is NVDA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?NVDA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 11.93x, and NTM P/E of 30x, lower than its 5Y mean of 13.34x and 39.91x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $171.24 on 19 May 2022, down 50% from 52 weeks high of $346.47. Given the recent market pessimism, there is a likelihood that the stock may retrace further below its 52 weeks low of $135.43 in the next few days, before recovering upon a positive catalyst, namely its FQ1'23 earnings call on 25 May 2022.Even then, the NVDA stock could potentially remain stagnant post-earnings, similar to its peer, AMD. The latter had reported stellar FQ1'22 earnings, while also raising its FY2022 guidance. In response, the stock rose by 9% from $91.13 to $99.42 on 3 May 2022, before drifting sideways for the next two weeks to reach $96.67 on 19 May 2022. We can be sure that if such an upbeat earnings call had occurred during the heights of the pandemic, AMD would have seen a more pronounced growth in valuation and stock price, similar to the 25% growth after FQ3'21 earnings and 15% growth after FQ2'21 earnings. As a result, interested tech investors must be aware that we are in the midst of maximum pain, significantly worsened by the cryptocurrency winter, the ongoing Ukraine war, and China's Zero Covid Policy.Given the uncertainties and reasons listed above, we may expect softer FQ2'23 guidance from NVDA's management as well. Though the stock may seem an attractive buy at its current \"undervaluation,\" given its growth potential and promising pipeline, we would encourage prudence for now. We expect a more attractive entry point moving forward, after more clarity from its FQ1'23 earnings call. Patient investors will be awarded.Therefore, we rate NVDA stock as a Hold for now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":576,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9021603846,"gmtCreate":1653037998085,"gmtModify":1676535212619,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9021603846","repostId":"2236705977","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2236705977","pubTimestamp":1653061017,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2236705977?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-20 23:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: Another Hit On Margins","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2236705977","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) had reported a big decline in its EBITA within core commerce business in the las","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) had reported a big decline in its EBITA within core commerce business in the last quarter.

This margin decline could continue in the near term as the restrictions due to the pandemic are still being imposed on major cities.

Even with a lower margin in this earnings call, Alibaba could see better bullish sentiment if it continues to show strong progress in cloud, international regions, subscriptions, delivery, and other key business segments.</p><h2>Decline In Margins</h2><p>The decline in margins within core commerce business is due to ramping up of investments in several strategic initiatives. The growing competition from Pinduoduo forced Alibaba to launch Taobao Deals where the margins are low. This service already has over 240 million annual active customers. Alibaba also invested in Ele.me to improve its delivery network. Another big investment activity was in Lazada in Southeast Asia.

In the latest nine-month period this has changed to positive RMB 0.87 billion. The margin swing in this period was from negative 4% to positive 2 %.

This makes it easier for clients to use Alibaba Cloud instead of AWS in case they get better discounts.</p><p>Many clients are focusing on using the services of multiple cloud providers instead of a single cloud company.

There is a massive margin gap between Alibaba Cloud and AWS. Alibaba Cloud has already shown an improvement of six percentage points in margins in the first three-quarters of this fiscal. Further improvement is likely as Alibaba ramps up its international investment in cloud business.</p><p>Hence, we should see a lot of margin improvement in Alibaba Cloud due to better economies of scale, international expansion, and usage of multiple cloud providers by clients, and thereby see a reduction in margin gap with AWS.</p><h2>Are Margins Important?</h2><p>If Alibaba can show rapid growth in international regions, the margins might take a back seat for Wall Street in evaluating the stock. The company is trying to replicate the business model it has created within China in other locations. It tries to gain a good share of the ecommerce market in a new region and then launches other services like payment, cloud, delivery, subscriptions, etc. within these locations. Alibaba has already proven itself in Southeast Asia. It owns Lazada which is a major player in the ecommerce market of Southeast Asia.</p><p>Lazada had $21 billion gross merchandise value according to recent estimates compared with Sea Limited which had $35 billion GMV. Sea Limited is trading at close to $50 billion market cap. Hence, Lazada could also have a massive standalone valuation. Alibaba also owns a big stake in Trendyol which is the leading e-commerce company in Turkey with a valuation of over $16 billion.</p><p>By end of this decade, Alibaba’s international business could be worth more than its Chinese business. During the expansion phase in international regions, the margins will suffer as the company tries to invest in warehousing, logistics and attracts new customers through discounts. Wall Street might overlook margins in this period if Alibaba’s management can deliver high enough growth in international markets. The recent YoY growth in Lazada was 82% which shows that heavy investment can bring a strong growth from a high revenue base.</p><h2>Impact On Stock</h2><p>Alibaba is trading at a modest valuation multiple even if we price in the regulatory challenges faced by the company. The company has a number of growth drivers that it can use to deliver better numbers in the future. The core business is still very strong and it has been able to retain its market share despite the growth of innovative disruptors like PDD.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6e18f482493ca5ea51b28b8a3f0ce819\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"293\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Ycharts</p><p></p><p>Figure 5: Alibaba&#39;s forward PE ratio is considerably lower than that of JD and PDD.</p><p>The revenue growth is still strong in a number of important businesses like cloud, international commerce, Ele.me and others. The forward P/E ratio of Alibaba is close to single digit which does not reflect the core strengths. We could still see some margin headwinds due to pandemic restrictions in the near term. However, in the medium to long term, the revenue growth and margin potential of the company are promising.</p><p>Investors should look past the short-term margin fluctuation and gauge the long-term growth of important segments like cloud, international commerce, subscriptions, and competition with Tencent.</p><h2>Investor Takeaway</h2><p>Alibaba has seen a dip in margins as the company invests in its strategic initiatives. We should see lower competitive pressure on Alibaba in the medium term as Tencent reduces its stake and partnership in JD, PDD, Meituan and others. Tencent is also directing more investment in international regions which should be favorable for Alibaba in China. Alibaba’s cloud business will be the main margin driver in the next few quarters.</p><p>Alibaba’s international growth will also put less attention on the margins. If Alibaba can rapidly expand in Southeast Asia and Europe across services like ecommerce, cloud, payments, delivery, and others, then it can improve the long-term growth runway for the company.</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>Alibaba: Another Hit On Margins</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAlibaba: Another Hit On Margins\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-20 23:36 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513086-alibaba-another-hit-on-margins><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) had reported a big decline in its EBITA within core commerce business in the last quarter.

This margin decline could continue in the near term as the restrictions due to the pandemic are still being imposed on major cities.

The growing competition from Pinduoduo forced Alibaba to launch Taobao Deals where the margins are low. This service already has over 240 million annual active customers.

There could also be a reduction in strategic partnership where JD uses Tencent’s platform to improve its service. Tencent might also divest from PDD, Meituan and other startups.

In the latest nine-month period this has changed to positive RMB 0.87 billion. The margin swing in this period was from negative 4% to positive 2 %.

Google was able to deliver a 16 percentage point improvement in margin on a YoY basis in the previous quarter.

Recently, Alibaba opened its third data center in Germany and it now directly competes with Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Google, and other cloud providers in the lucrative European region. It should be noted that Alibaba Cloud has many features which are similar to Amazon&#39;s AWS because both of these cloud operations started with their e-commerce business. This makes it easier for clients to use Alibaba Cloud instead of AWS in case they get better discounts.</p><p>Many clients are focusing on using the services of multiple cloud providers instead of a single cloud company.

There is a massive margin gap between Alibaba Cloud and AWS. Alibaba Cloud has already shown an improvement of six percentage points in margins in the first three-quarters of this fiscal. Further improvement is likely as Alibaba ramps up its international investment in cloud business.</p><p>Hence, we should see a lot of margin improvement in Alibaba Cloud due to better economies of scale, international expansion, and usage of multiple cloud providers by clients, and thereby see a reduction in margin gap with AWS.</p><h2>Are Margins Important?</h2><p>If Alibaba can show rapid growth in international regions, the margins might take a back seat for Wall Street in evaluating the stock. The company is trying to replicate the business model it has created within China in other locations. It tries to gain a good share of the ecommerce market in a new region and then launches other services like payment, cloud, delivery, subscriptions, etc. within these locations. Alibaba has already proven itself in Southeast Asia. It owns Lazada which is a major player in the ecommerce market of Southeast Asia.</p><p>Lazada had $21 billion gross merchandise value according to recent estimates compared with Sea Limited which had $35 billion GMV. Sea Limited is trading at close to $50 billion market cap. Hence, Lazada could also have a massive standalone valuation. Alibaba also owns a big stake in Trendyol which is the leading e-commerce company in Turkey with a valuation of over $16 billion.</p><p>By end of this decade, Alibaba’s international business could be worth more than its Chinese business. During the expansion phase in international regions, the margins will suffer as the company tries to invest in warehousing, logistics and attracts new customers through discounts. Wall Street might overlook margins in this period if Alibaba’s management can deliver high enough growth in international markets. The recent YoY growth in Lazada was 82% which shows that heavy investment can bring a strong growth from a high revenue base.</p><h2>Impact On Stock</h2><p>Alibaba is trading at a modest valuation multiple even if we price in the regulatory challenges faced by the company. The company has a number of growth drivers that it can use to deliver better numbers in the future. The core business is still very strong and it has been able to retain its market share despite the growth of innovative disruptors like PDD.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6e18f482493ca5ea51b28b8a3f0ce819\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"293\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Ycharts</p><p></p><p>Figure 5: Alibaba&#39;s forward PE ratio is considerably lower than that of JD and PDD.</p><p>The revenue growth is still strong in a number of important businesses like cloud, international commerce, Ele.me and others.

However, in the medium to long term, the revenue growth and margin potential of the company are promising.</p><p>Investors should look past the short-term margin fluctuation and gauge the long-term growth of important segments like cloud, international commerce, subscriptions, and competition with Tencent.</p><h2>Investor Takeaway</h2><p>Alibaba has seen a dip in margins as the company invests in its strategic initiatives. We should see lower competitive pressure on Alibaba in the medium term as Tencent reduces its stake and partnership in JD, PDD, Meituan and others.

The <b>Nasdaq Composite</b> is in a bear market. The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> is in a correction. When major indexes are down significantly, it means that many stocks are also sinking.</p><p>But there are outliers that are swimming against the strong current. Some of them remain attractive picks even after delivering solid gains. Here are three stocks up 25% to 65% this year that are still smart buys.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e37450696f296395081e7010df23114\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>1. Bristol Myers Squibb</h2><p><b>Bristol Myers Squibb</b> (BMY -0.60%) didn&#39;t do much for investors last year, with the drugmaker&#39;s shares ending 2021 up less than 1%. However, it&#39;s a much different story in 2022. The big pharma stock has jumped 25% so far this year.</p><p>Probably the biggest factor behind the stock&#39;s success in 2022 is a string of regulatory wins for the company. In March, Opdivo (in combination with chemotherapy) picked up U.S. approval as a neoadjuvant treatment for non-small cell lung cancer. The blockbuster immunotherapy won three approvals in Europe -- <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> as a monotherapy and two as part of combo treatments -- for additional indications in the following month.</p><p>Regulatory victories for two new products excited investors even more. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Opdualag in March for treating melanoma. The therapy combines Opdivo with relatlimab, a new type of immunotherapy that targets the LAG-3 immune checkpoint. In April, the FDA approved potential blockbuster heart failure drug Camzyos (mavacamten).</p><p>BMS shares trade at less than 9.8 times expected earnings even after the solid year-to-date gain. The company faces some challenges with generic competition for Revlimid and the loss of exclusivity for several drugs over the next few years. However, BMS has several up-and-coming stars in its lineup along with a promising pipeline.</p><h2>2. McKesson</h2><p>Warren Buffett added <b>McKesson</b> (MCK -2.86%) to <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>&#39;s portfolio sometime in the first quarter of 2022. That appears to have been a wise move in retrospect. McKesson stock is up more than 30% year to date with a nice chunk of that gain coming in the second quarter.</p><p>What does Buffett like about McKesson? The company&#39;s resilient business probably stands at the top of the list. McKesson distributes prescription drugs and medical-surgical solutions and provides technology to help connect pharmacies, payers, drugmakers, and patients.</p><p>With the overall market in turmoil, McKesson is the kind of safe stock to which many investors flock. It delivers solid growth on a consistent basis. For example, in the quarter ending March 31, the healthcare services company reported revenue increased by 12% year over year with adjusted earnings per share up 15%.</p><p>Despite turning in a strong performance so far this year, McKesson remains attractively valued. Its shares trade at under 14 times expected earnings.</p><h2>3. Devon Energy</h2><p><b>Devon Energy</b>&#39;s (DVN -2.47%) shares skyrocketed 178% last year. That momentum hasn&#39;t faded.

The Nasdaq Composite is in a bear market. The S&P 500 is in a correction. When major indexes are down significantly, it means that many stocks are also sinking.But there are outliers that are swimming against the strong current. Some of them remain attractive picks even after delivering solid gains. Here are three stocks up 25% to 65% this year that are still smart buys.Image source: Getty Images.1. Bristol Myers SquibbBristol Myers Squibb (BMY -0.60%) didn't do much for investors last year, with the drugmaker's shares ending 2021 up less than 1%. However, it's a much different story in 2022. The big pharma stock has jumped 25% so far this year.Probably the biggest factor behind the stock's success in 2022 is a string of regulatory wins for the company. In March, Opdivo (in combination with chemotherapy) picked up U.S. approval as a neoadjuvant treatment for non-small cell lung cancer. The blockbuster immunotherapy won three approvals in Europe -- one as a monotherapy and two as part of combo treatments -- for additional indications in the following month.Regulatory victories for two new products excited investors even more. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Opdualag in March for treating melanoma. The therapy combines Opdivo with relatlimab, a new type of immunotherapy that targets the LAG-3 immune checkpoint. In April, the FDA approved potential blockbuster heart failure drug Camzyos (mavacamten).BMS shares trade at less than 9.8 times expected earnings even after the solid year-to-date gain. The company faces some challenges with generic competition for Revlimid and the loss of exclusivity for several drugs over the next few years. However, BMS has several up-and-coming stars in its lineup along with a promising pipeline.2. McKessonWarren Buffett added McKesson (MCK -2.86%) to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio sometime in the first quarter of 2022. That appears to have been a wise move in retrospect. McKesson stock is up more than 30% year to date with a nice chunk of that gain coming in the second quarter.What does Buffett like about McKesson? The company's resilient business probably stands at the top of the list. McKesson distributes prescription drugs and medical-surgical solutions and provides technology to help connect pharmacies, payers, drugmakers, and patients.With the overall market in turmoil, McKesson is the kind of safe stock to which many investors flock. It delivers solid growth on a consistent basis. For example, in the quarter ending March 31, the healthcare services company reported revenue increased by 12% year over year with adjusted earnings per share up 15%.Despite turning in a strong performance so far this year, McKesson remains attractively valued. Its shares trade at under 14 times expected earnings.3. Devon EnergyDevon Energy's (DVN -2.47%) shares skyrocketed 178% last year. That momentum hasn't faded. The stock is still on fire with a gain of 64% so far in 2022.Actually, the story for Devon is even better than those numbers indicate. The company offers an especially juicy dividend yield of more than 7%. This dividend includes a fixed component and a variable component that's funded by excess free cash flow. Including reinvested dividends, Devon's total return since the beginning of 2021 is nearly 400%.There's no surprise as to why Devon has performed so well. Oil and gas prices have soared with increased demand following the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions and supply issues resulting from Russia's invasion of Ukraine.Devon's shares trade at only 8.8 times expected earnings. CEO Rick Muncrief said in the company's recent Q1 conference call, \"At current levels, we feel that we are fundamentally undervalued and are at the start of a multiple expansion for our equity that should translate into true value creation for shareholders.\" He could very well be right. If so, Devon should have plenty of room to keep running.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9029198445,"gmtCreate":1652745087287,"gmtModify":1676535151584,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9029198445","repostId":"2236256995","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2236256995","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1652743083,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2236256995?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-17 07:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Take-Two Earnings Lift the Stock.

Its earnings release announcement also &#34;coincided&#34; with a Bloomberg report that the Shanghai state authorities could be moving ahead to easing its strict lockdowns from May 20.</p><p>Therefore, we believe the near-term catalysts are in play for management as the consensus estimates for Alibaba&#39;s FY22-23 have been revised downwards since our previous article. Consequently, we think it sets Alibaba up nicely to deliver a better than expected guidance for FY23, putting the worst of the regulatory adjustments and the COVID lockdowns behind it.</p><p>As China&#39;s bellwether stock, given its significant exposure to China&#39;s consumer discretionary spending, the market would parse Alibaba&#39;s guidance very carefully. However, we believe the market has also baked in a substantial level of negative sentiments into BABA stock.</p><p>Our price action analysis also suggests that BABA stock had already bottomed in March/April. It also corroborates our view that the bottoming process has begun to form.</p><p>Therefore, we are increasingly optimistic that the tide has decisively swung for BABA as the COVID lockdowns ease. Notwithstanding, we also understand that China&#39;s easing has undergone significant uncertainty.</p><p>But, we need to remind investors that we don&#39;t consider these lockdowns to have a structural impact. Furthermore, recent economic indicators also demonstrated that China&#39;s industrial and consumer spending has plummeted, lifting the urgency of necessary policy action.</p><p>We are confident that China remains committed to achieving his 5.5% GDP growth mandate. Therefore, the government would do all it can to lift/ease COVID restrictions while maintaining its zero-COVID strategy.</p><p><b>Alibaba&#39;s Underlying Metrics Should Bottom In FY23</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f5a8fbf48d48208f819d8408e7a471c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba GAAP EPS and revenue change % consensus estimates (By FY) (S&amp;P Capital IQ)</span></p><p>Given the extended lockdowns in China, the estimates for Alibaba&#39;s FQ4&#39;22 have been revised markedly downwards (again). The street has been reacting to the growing economic weakness in China, as industrial and consumer spending indicators have continued to disappoint. As a result, Alibaba is estimated to report revenue growth of 6.4% YoY in FQ4 before seeing a marked recovery in FQ2&#39;23 (ending September 2022 quarter).</p><p>Bloomberg also reported that economists generally agree that &#34;China will likely report the weakest monthly economic indicators since the pandemic started two years ago, putting pressure on the central bank to boost stimulus to support growth.&#34; Furthermore, economists expect China&#39;s jobless rate to surge to 6% in April, just below its two-year high of 6.2% reached in February 2020.</p><p>More negative commentary from Bloomberg Economics also validated our thesis that the market has been pricing in a &#34;horrific&#34; April report. It accentuated (edited):</p><blockquote>China&#39;s April activity data will probably make for a worrying read -- driving home the extent of the damage to the economy from lockdowns in Shanghai and other parts of the country. Leading and high-frequency data are sounding alarms. Production and investment likely decelerated sharply and retail sales probably sank further. - <i>Bloomberg Economics</i></blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/100c4aae7b663c43fba40fab38dd0064\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba revenue change % and adjusted FCF margins % consensus estimates (S&amp;P Capital IQ)</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1826766e31173f18ad9b7f7c22012458\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba GAAP EPS consensus estimates (S&amp;P Capital IQ)</span></p><p>In addition, Alibaba&#39;s annualized estimates also suggest that the company&#39;s revenue and profitability could reach a nadir in FY23 before reflecting. Notably, Alibaba&#39;s solid profitability has helped it sustain robust FCF margins, despite being hampered by highly significant regulatory and economic headwinds. As a result, we believe it has been the most trying period for its business over the last ten years. Yet, Alibaba has proved the resilience of its business model, stress testing it to the limit.</p><p>Therefore, we believe that Alibaba&#39;s FY23 estimates are highly credible, given the significant pessimism seen in the markets. Accordingly, investors can expect Alibaba&#39;s revenue growth to bottom out in FY23 at 13% YoY. Notably, it&#39;s expected to regain operating leverage, with GAAP EPS growth of 19.2% in FY23.</p><p><b>BABA Stock Price Analysis Shows A March/April Bottom</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7289bd0d4929a1318e265e6d87caff14\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"356\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>BABA stock price chart (TradingView)</span></p><p>Upon closer inspection of BABA stock price action, we are increasingly confident that it has already bottomed in March/April, as seen above. Furthermore, its bull trap in late 2020 has been significantly digested by the distribution move and capitulation move over the past 18 months. Notably, it also formed a bear trap that has maintained its lows despite the recent lower lows observed in the US equity markets. Therefore, we are even more confident that BABA stock has likely bottomed.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c94605b364022bc81bf3da6b81a7993\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"356\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>China&#39;s CSI300 index price chart (TradingView)</span></p><p>Furthermore, our analysis of China&#39;s CSI300 benchmark index also demonstrated similar digestion of its bull trap through its capitulation move seen above. As a result, it also seems to have bottomed in March/April.</p><p>Notwithstanding, there&#39;s a slight risk that it could fall by another 7% to create a double-bottom bear trap before reversing eventually. However, we think the risk/reward profile has improved significantly despite the potential downside risk. Consequently, it seems increasingly likely that the bear market in China stocks is in its late stages.</p><p><b>Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f375559d27d9545a2f5d1e82682cf02c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>BABA stock NTM normalized P/E and NTM FCF yields % (TIKR)</span></p><p><i>BABA stock is a Strong Buy.</i> As seen above, Alibaba&#39;s underlying fundamentals and its price analysis have corroborated our thesis that its bottom had already formed.</p><p>Furthermore, its attractive valuation lends further credence to our thesis.

Investors will parse its FY23 guidance carefully on management's optimism of a bottom in consumer spending.We think that Alibaba's FQ4 earnings card could be a near-term catalyst for BABA stock. Our analysis shows that Alibaba stock had likely bottomed in March/April.We upgrade our rating for Alibaba stock from Buy to Strong Buy. We are increasingly confident that the bear market in BABA stock is in its late stage.Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesInvestment ThesisAlibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) is slated to report its FQ4'22 and FY22 earnings cards on May 26th. Its earnings release announcement also \"coincided\" with a Bloomberg report that the Shanghai state authorities could be moving ahead to easing its strict lockdowns from May 20.Therefore, we believe the near-term catalysts are in play for management as the consensus estimates for Alibaba's FY22-23 have been revised downwards since our previous article. Consequently, we think it sets Alibaba up nicely to deliver a better than expected guidance for FY23, putting the worst of the regulatory adjustments and the COVID lockdowns behind it.As China's bellwether stock, given its significant exposure to China's consumer discretionary spending, the market would parse Alibaba's guidance very carefully. However, we believe the market has also baked in a substantial level of negative sentiments into BABA stock.Our price action analysis also suggests that BABA stock had already bottomed in March/April. It also corroborates our view that the bottoming process has begun to form.Therefore, we are increasingly optimistic that the tide has decisively swung for BABA as the COVID lockdowns ease. Notwithstanding, we also understand that China's easing has undergone significant uncertainty.But, we need to remind investors that we don't consider these lockdowns to have a structural impact. Furthermore, recent economic indicators also demonstrated that China's industrial and consumer spending has plummeted, lifting the urgency of necessary policy action.We are confident that China remains committed to achieving his 5.5% GDP growth mandate. Therefore, the government would do all it can to lift/ease COVID restrictions while maintaining its zero-COVID strategy.Alibaba's Underlying Metrics Should Bottom In FY23Alibaba GAAP EPS and revenue change % consensus estimates (By FY) (S&P Capital IQ)Given the extended lockdowns in China, the estimates for Alibaba's FQ4'22 have been revised markedly downwards (again). The street has been reacting to the growing economic weakness in China, as industrial and consumer spending indicators have continued to disappoint. As a result, Alibaba is estimated to report revenue growth of 6.4% YoY in FQ4 before seeing a marked recovery in FQ2'23 (ending September 2022 quarter).Bloomberg also reported that economists generally agree that \"China will likely report the weakest monthly economic indicators since the pandemic started two years ago, putting pressure on the central bank to boost stimulus to support growth.\" Furthermore, economists expect China's jobless rate to surge to 6% in April, just below its two-year high of 6.2% reached in February 2020.More negative commentary from Bloomberg Economics also validated our thesis that the market has been pricing in a \"horrific\" April report. It accentuated (edited):China's April activity data will probably make for a worrying read -- driving home the extent of the damage to the economy from lockdowns in Shanghai and other parts of the country. Leading and high-frequency data are sounding alarms. Production and investment likely decelerated sharply and retail sales probably sank further. - Bloomberg EconomicsAlibaba revenue change % and adjusted FCF margins % consensus estimates (S&P Capital IQ)Alibaba GAAP EPS consensus estimates (S&P Capital IQ)In addition, Alibaba's annualized estimates also suggest that the company's revenue and profitability could reach a nadir in FY23 before reflecting. Notably, Alibaba's solid profitability has helped it sustain robust FCF margins, despite being hampered by highly significant regulatory and economic headwinds. As a result, we believe it has been the most trying period for its business over the last ten years. Yet, Alibaba has proved the resilience of its business model, stress testing it to the limit.Therefore, we believe that Alibaba's FY23 estimates are highly credible, given the significant pessimism seen in the markets. Accordingly, investors can expect Alibaba's revenue growth to bottom out in FY23 at 13% YoY. Notably, it's expected to regain operating leverage, with GAAP EPS growth of 19.2% in FY23.BABA Stock Price Analysis Shows A March/April BottomBABA stock price chart (TradingView)Upon closer inspection of BABA stock price action, we are increasingly confident that it has already bottomed in March/April, as seen above. Furthermore, its bull trap in late 2020 has been significantly digested by the distribution move and capitulation move over the past 18 months. Notably, it also formed a bear trap that has maintained its lows despite the recent lower lows observed in the US equity markets. Therefore, we are even more confident that BABA stock has likely bottomed.China's CSI300 index price chart (TradingView)Furthermore, our analysis of China's CSI300 benchmark index also demonstrated similar digestion of its bull trap through its capitulation move seen above. As a result, it also seems to have bottomed in March/April.Notwithstanding, there's a slight risk that it could fall by another 7% to create a double-bottom bear trap before reversing eventually. However, we think the risk/reward profile has improved significantly despite the potential downside risk. Consequently, it seems increasingly likely that the bear market in China stocks is in its late stages.Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?BABA stock NTM normalized P/E and NTM FCF yields % (TIKR)BABA stock is a Strong Buy. As seen above, Alibaba's underlying fundamentals and its price analysis have corroborated our thesis that its bottom had already formed.Furthermore, its attractive valuation lends further credence to our thesis. BABA stock last traded at an NTM FCF yield of 8.1% and an NTM normalized P/E of 12.05x. We think such a bargain is a generational opportunity to own a highly profitable business with solid management and a highly defensible moat.We upgrade our rating on BABA stock from Buy to Strong Buy. We believe its FQ4 earnings release on May 26 could be a massive near-term catalyst for its stock to re-rate moving forward.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":90,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020579846,"gmtCreate":1652668373585,"gmtModify":1676535137355,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020579846","repostId":"2235462575","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":30,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020178156,"gmtCreate":1652594005675,"gmtModify":1676535126828,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sad","listText":"Sad","text":"Sad","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020178156","repostId":"2235243999","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2235243999","pubTimestamp":1652574845,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2235243999?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-15 08:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Coinbase Expects More Pain Ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2235243999","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Investors in Coinbase need to prepare for turbulent times ahead.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Coinbase Global</b> (COIN 16.02%), the cryptocurrency exchange platform, had a bumpy ride over the last 12 months.

Most electric vehicle stocks popped more than 10% yesterday, with Lordstown rallying 50% and Rivian surging 21%.To be sure, these huge rallies come on the heels of some major declines across the whole EV sector. Still, sales of electric vehicles across the globe continue to roar higher, and many of these companies are growing rapidly. This is all leading investors to ask: Is this the start of a major EV stock comeback?We think it could be. Here’s why.Rivian and Lordstown Reestablish Confidence in Electric Vehicle StocksEV stocks didn’t drop because electric vehicles stopped selling. Sales of electric vehicles in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2022 rose 60% year-over-year:Yet EV stocks dropped big in early 2022. Amid persistent supply chain disruptions and parts shortages, investors lost confidence in major EV players’ ability to hit production targets.But that confidence was reestablished yesterday, partly because of a positive business update from Lordstown. But it was mostly thanks to a great quarterly earnings report from Rivian.Late Tuesday night, Lordstown said that it had closed the sales of one of its manufacturing facilities to Foxconn. The sale injects $230 million onto Lordstown’s balance sheets. That’s critical — Lordstown was on the cusp of running out of cash. But with this new capital infusion, the company now has enough liquidity to commence commercial production in quarter three.In other words, Lordstown will hit its 2022 delivery targets — confidence reestablished.Meanwhile, Rivian provided an excellent business update on Tuesday afternoon as well. The company said that despite huge supply chain challenges, it’s on track to hits its 25,000-vehicle production target for 2022. Pre-orders are also ramping nicely, with the latest number at 90,000 reservations.In other words, Rivian will hit its 2022 delivery targets — confidence reestablished.This confidence boost at two EV manufacturing startups was good enough to light a fire under the entire industry.We don’t think that fire is going to die out anytime soon. We see electric vehicle stocks soaring from here into the end of the year.EV Stocks Are Wiped Out and Due for a Big ReboundPersistent supply chain concerns and fears about waning auto demand in a slowing economy have plagued the EV industry. And as such, electric vehicle stocks have been crushed so far in 2022.Now, though, they’re completely washed out — and due for a big rebound rally.Rivian, for example, was trading at 1X book value and 3X forward sales heading into its earnings report. That’s wild. This is a company that’s projected to grow sales by more than 3,000% this year, 250% in 2023, 110% the year after and 55% the year after that. And it was trading for just 1X book value and 3X forward sales!Talk about a bargain.But, as many seasoned investors will tell you, just because a stock is a bargain doesn’t mean it’s a buy. Cheap stocks can stay cheap for a long time. You need a catalyst to bring them back to life.Well, yesterday, we got that catalyst.EV makers — Rivian, in particular — are on track to hit 2022 targets, despite all the macroeconomic headwinds.This confirmation catalyst converged on dirt-cheap valuations across the sector and sparked some huge rallies in EV stocks.These rallies have some major runway ahead.Indeed, we think Rivian stock can more than double from current levels in a hurry. But Rivian isn’t even our favorite stock to buy for this huge EV comeback.The Final Word on Electric Vehicle StocksWe believe that the company with the best battery technology is going to win the electric vehicle arms race.After all, the quality of the battery determines everything about an EV. It dictates how far it can drive, how long it can last, how quickly it can recharge. The battery even affects how fast it can go.When it comes to EVs, the battery is everything. Therefore, the company that makes the best EV battery will make the best EV — and sell the most. And ultimately, it will emerge the winner of the electric vehicle arms race.Rivian makes a great battery. That’s why RIVN is a great EV stock to buy.But Rivian doesn’t make the best battery.Instead, that title is reserved for another tiny EV maker — one that could de-throne Tesla. And that company is the best EV stock to buy today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":50,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9067858854,"gmtCreate":1652446271878,"gmtModify":1676535102027,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm","listText":"Hmm","text":"Hmm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9067858854","repostId":"1148380517","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1148380517","pubTimestamp":1652444998,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1148380517?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-13 20:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Elon Musk Sows Doubt Over His $44 Billion Twitter Takeover","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1148380517","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Musk says deal is on hold but that he’s still committedTesla CEO wants more detail on proportion of fake accountsElon Musk caused chaos over his takeover bid for$Twitter Inc(TWTR)$, first claiming his","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Musk says deal is on hold but that he’s still committed</li><li>Tesla CEO wants more detail on proportion of fake accounts</li></ul><p>Elon Musk caused chaos over his takeover bid for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter Inc</a>, first claiming his bid was “temporarily on hold,” then maintaining he is “still committed” to the deal, sending the social media giant into a tailspin.</p><p>The billionaire initially sent an early tweet saying the $44 billion deal is pending until he receives more information about the proportion of fake accounts on the social media site, which sent Twitter stock tumbling as much as 25% in premarket trading.

Despite a large increase in the valuation of Twitter, I believe the firm&#39;s commercial growth is still cheap and the risk profile remains heavily skewed to the upside.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/4/5/saupload_2df5cd4e9dcbe76f0e948a2631ccc59c.png\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><h2><b>Previous position on Twitter</b></h2><p>Months ago, I presented Twitter as a potential investment due to the firm&#39;s undervalued ad business, strong user growth and significant free cash flow generation of the platform. While Twitter may be a controversial investment for some, I do not take political sides and have been focused solely on the firm&#39;s strong platform metrics, especially with respect to average monetizable daily active usage.</p><p>Twitter&#39;s mDAUs soared to 217M in Q4&#39;21 with growth especially pronounced in the platform&#39;s international business. International mDAUs surged 24M in Q4&#39;21, year over year, to a record of 179M. In percentage terms, the international business grew at a 15% year over year rate. While growth is much more modest in the U.S., Twitter is still growing in its domestic market: the micro-blogging platform added 1M new mDAUs to its business in the last quarter, which calculates to a 2% year over year growth rate.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/4/53926820_16491397057597_rId4.png\" tg-width=\"733\" tg-height=\"376\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Twitter</p><p></p><h2><b>Elon Musk&#39;s investment in Twitter is a potential game-changer for the micro-blogging platform</b></h2><p>It was revealed yesterday that Elon Musk acquired a 9.2% stake in Twitter, sending shares of the platform soaring more than 27%. The Tesla chief acquired 73,486,938 shares in the social media company on March 14. The purchase immediately made Elon Musk the single largest shareholder of Twitter and raised speculation as to how &#34;passive&#34; the out-spoken billionaire is going to be. While Elon Musk&#39;s ultimate ambition regarding Twitter is not known, the market has been electrified by the acquisition, which could translate to additional valuation gains. Twitter has often been criticized for violating principles of free speech and a more activist role of Elon Musk could result in some positive change on Twitter&#39;s platform.</p><h2><b>Significant free cash flow value</b></h2><p>The acquisition of a 9.2% stake in Twitter has been a strong catalyst for shares of Twitter so far, but the real value of the social media company is its large user base and potential for material advertising revenue and free cash flow growth in the coming years. Twitter&#39;s free cash flow margins decreased in FY 2021, but this is chiefly due to higher capital expenditures and a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-time litigation-related net charge of $766M in the third-quarter. If it wasn&#39;t for the settlement of a shareholder class action lawsuit, Twitter&#39;s free cash flow would have been positive in FY 2021.</p><p>Twitter&#39;s ad business shows a lot of promise as well. The ad business recovered strongly in FY 2021 and total advertising revenues surged 40% year over year to $4.5B. Twitter&#39;s ad revenues in the fourth-quarter soared 22% year over year to $1.41B.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/4/53926820_16491397057597_rId5.png\" tg-width=\"467\" tg-height=\"502\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Twitter</p><p></p><p>I believe Twitter could generate up to $600M in free cash flow in FY 2022 which would calculate to a free cash flow margin of around 10%. Because Twitter already settled its shareholder class action lawsuit in FY 2021, the firm&#39;s free cash flow margins are set to turn positive again in FY 2022.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>$ in 000&#39;s</p></td><td><p><b>FY 2018</b></p></td><td><p><b>FY 2019</b></p></td><td><p><b>FY 2020</b></p></td><td><p><b>FY 2021</b></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Revenues</p></td><td><p>$3,042,359</p></td><td><p>$3,459,329</p></td><td><p>$3,716,349</p></td><td><p>$5,077,482</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Cash Flow From Operating Activities</p></td><td><p>$1,339,711</p></td><td><p>$1,303,364</p></td><td><p>$992,870</p></td><td><p>$632,689</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Purchases of PPE</p></td><td><p>-$486,950</p></td><td><p>-$534,530</p></td><td><p>-$864,184</p></td><td><p>-$1,003,084</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Free Cash Flow</p></td><td><p>$852,761</p></td><td><p>$768,834</p></td><td><p>$128,686</p></td><td><p>-$370,395</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Free Cash Flow Margin</p></td><td><p>28.0%</p></td><td><p>22.2%</p></td><td><p>3.5%</p></td><td><p>-7.3%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>(Source: Author)</p><h2><b>Risks with Twitter</b></h2><p>There are a couple of risks that affect an investment in Twitter. The social media company is growing its user and revenue bases, but there is a risk of new messaging platforms popping up and stealing away users. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a> (FB) reported its first-ever DAU decline last quarter and the stock reacted sensitively to this announcement. Should Twitter also start to lose users to other platforms, shares of Twitter may be up for a major revaluation.</p><p>Another risk I see is slowing platform revenue and free cash flow growth.

Despite a large increase in the valuation of Twitter, I believe the firm's commercial growth is still cheap and the risk profile remains heavily skewed to the upside.Data by YChartsPrevious position on TwitterMonths ago, I presented Twitter as a potential investment due to the firm's undervalued ad business, strong user growth and significant free cash flow generation of the platform. While Twitter may be a controversial investment for some, I do not take political sides and have been focused solely on the firm's strong platform metrics, especially with respect to average monetizable daily active usage.Twitter's mDAUs soared to 217M in Q4'21 with growth especially pronounced in the platform's international business. International mDAUs surged 24M in Q4'21, year over year, to a record of 179M. In percentage terms, the international business grew at a 15% year over year rate. While growth is much more modest in the U.S., Twitter is still growing in its domestic market: the micro-blogging platform added 1M new mDAUs to its business in the last quarter, which calculates to a 2% year over year growth rate.TwitterElon Musk's investment in Twitter is a potential game-changer for the micro-blogging platformIt was revealed yesterday that Elon Musk acquired a 9.2% stake in Twitter, sending shares of the platform soaring more than 27%. The Tesla chief acquired 73,486,938 shares in the social media company on March 14. The purchase immediately made Elon Musk the single largest shareholder of Twitter and raised speculation as to how \"passive\" the out-spoken billionaire is going to be. While Elon Musk's ultimate ambition regarding Twitter is not known, the market has been electrified by the acquisition, which could translate to additional valuation gains. Twitter has often been criticized for violating principles of free speech and a more activist role of Elon Musk could result in some positive change on Twitter's platform.Significant free cash flow valueThe acquisition of a 9.2% stake in Twitter has been a strong catalyst for shares of Twitter so far, but the real value of the social media company is its large user base and potential for material advertising revenue and free cash flow growth in the coming years. Twitter's free cash flow margins decreased in FY 2021, but this is chiefly due to higher capital expenditures and a one-time litigation-related net charge of $766M in the third-quarter. If it wasn't for the settlement of a shareholder class action lawsuit, Twitter's free cash flow would have been positive in FY 2021.Twitter's ad business shows a lot of promise as well. The ad business recovered strongly in FY 2021 and total advertising revenues surged 40% year over year to $4.5B. Twitter's ad revenues in the fourth-quarter soared 22% year over year to $1.41B.TwitterI believe Twitter could generate up to $600M in free cash flow in FY 2022 which would calculate to a free cash flow margin of around 10%. Because Twitter already settled its shareholder class action lawsuit in FY 2021, the firm's free cash flow margins are set to turn positive again in FY 2022.$ in 000'sFY 2018FY 2019FY 2020FY 2021Revenues$3,042,359$3,459,329$3,716,349$5,077,482Cash Flow From Operating Activities$1,339,711$1,303,364$992,870$632,689Purchases of PPE-$486,950-$534,530-$864,184-$1,003,084Free Cash Flow$852,761$768,834$128,686-$370,395Free Cash Flow Margin28.0%22.2%3.5%-7.3%(Source: Author)Risks with TwitterThere are a couple of risks that affect an investment in Twitter. The social media company is growing its user and revenue bases, but there is a risk of new messaging platforms popping up and stealing away users. Meta Platforms (FB) reported its first-ever DAU decline last quarter and the stock reacted sensitively to this announcement. Should Twitter also start to lose users to other platforms, shares of Twitter may be up for a major revaluation.Another risk I see is slowing platform revenue and free cash flow growth. Twitter's revenues soared 22% in the last quarter to $1.57B, but if revenue growth slowed, Twitter's valuation could come under increasing pressure.Final thoughtsElon Musk's engagement with Twitter is a potentially big deal for investors if he turned activist or increased his investment in the social media company.. which I believe is not out of the question. While Tesla's founder has said that he sees his stake in the micro-blogging platform as a passive investment, it won't take much for him to get more actively involved in Twitter's business.

The company revealed the update ","content":"<p>Apple (AAPL) has unveiled the latest version of iOS, dubbed iOS 15. The company revealed the update on Monday during its virtual Worldwide Developers Conference 2021, or WWDC.</p><p>The changes to the operating system that powers millions of iPhones around the world include new notification settings, improvements to Messages, changes to Photos, and more. Here are the biggest changes coming to your iPhone with iOS 15.</p><h2>Big changes to FaceTime</h2><p>The FaceTime app is getting an overhaul to make video chats feel more natural for users by adding spatial audio, which allows audio to sound like it's coming from the direction in which a speaker is positioned in a call. If they're on the left, the sound will sound like it's coming from the left, and vice versa.</p><p>The company is also adding a feature that focuses specifically on your voice, blocking out background noise, as well as a means to take in even more of the sound around you. The new FaceTime Links option lets you plan a FaceTime call via Calendar invites or share links via text messages. The company is even allowing users without iOS devices to join FaceTime chats via web links, which Apple says will be encrypted just as they are on the iPhone or iPad.</p><p>Apple also debuted a new feature called SharePlay that lets you bring music and shows into your FaceTime calls, allowing you to listen and watch with friends and family. Shared controls will also let anyone in the call pause and play whatever you're listening to or watching. You'll also be able to watch shows via iOS's picture-in-picture mode or you can extend them to your TV via AirPlay.</p><p>Apple says SharePlay will work with Disney+. Twitch, Hulu, TikTok, ESPN+, and other services. Then there's a new screen sharing feature that lets you literally share what you're seeing on your screen with your friends, so you can show them what you're looking at online, or give them a hand with a quick instructional walkthrough if you're having trouble using an app.</p><h2>Messages and Notification updates</h2><p>Messages, meanwhile, is getting updates in the form of a feature called Shared with You, that allows you to view all of the news articles, and videos your friends have shared with you over time in your Messages, rather than losing them amidst your stream of back and forth texts.</p><p>The Photos app is also getting a Shared with You section to see photos that friends have shared with you. Apple says the only photos that will appear in your Photos app will be those that include your face, to prevent your library from becoming cluttered with screenshots and memes.</p><p>Notifications in iOS are also getting updates with improved icons and a feature called Notification summary. This will allow you to schedule when certain notifications appear and are ordered by priority. Notifications from people won't be in the summary, though, to make sure you still get messages the moment they're sent your way.</p><p>There's also a Do Not Disturb mode for Messages that will let people know that you're not taking texts at the moment, whether you're in a meeting or having dinner. Of course, people can still cut in by calling or alerting you that it's important.</p><p>There's also a new focus mode that allows you to set certain notifications for things like work or when you're out of the office. If you're at work, for example, only notifications for work apps will come through. Out of the office, you'll get notifications for non-work apps.</p><h2>Live Text, Photos, and more</h2><p>A new Live Text feature can now capture text from photos and paste them as text directly into emails or other apps. If you see a phone number in a shot, you can tap it and call it. Apple is also adding object recognition for photos, so they'll be able to identify pets and landmarks. It's something similar to Google's own Google Lens, though Google has years of experience behind its app, so it will be interesting to see how Live Text stacks up.</p><p>On the Photos side of things, there are changes to Memories that allows you to customize the look and audio behind your memories, with Apple pulling songs from its Apple Music library.</p><p>Apple has also announced that it will soon allow you to put your ID in your Apple Wallet. That means, in certain states, you'll be able to use your Apple Wallet to present your license. That's a major change, and goes along nicely with the ability to use your Apple Wallet to show your car insurance when you get pulled over.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","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>Apple debuts iOS 15, bringing huge changes to the iPhone</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\">\nApple debuts iOS 15, bringing huge changes to the iPhone\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-08 09:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/apple-ios-15-debut-174727899.html><strong>Yahoo Finance</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple (AAPL) has unveiled the latest version of iOS, dubbed iOS 15.

While the <b>Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector</b> index is down about 13.9% so far in 2022, it&#39;s still holding on to a gain of 423% over the last decade.</p><p>In fact, the steep declines in many individual stocks could be an opportunity to buy into long-term growth stories at a discount for the decade ahead. <b>Upstart Holdings</b> and <b>Bill.com Holdings</b> are two fintechs with unique business models and soaring growth rates, making them prime candidates.</p><p>Over the next 10 years, both stocks have the potential to deliver fivefold returns, especially if you buy them now while their stock is selling at a steep discount to levels reached in late 2021.</p><h2>The case for Upstart</h2><p>Artificial intelligence (AI) is a next-generation technology that promises to replace manual human input in many complex tasks. In this case, Upstart has developed an AI algorithm to assess the creditworthiness of potential borrowers, and it uses that information to originate loans for its banking partners.</p><p>Banks pay Upstart a fee for the service, and it&#39;s proving to be a far more effective tool than the decades-old FICO credit scoring system from <b>Fair Isaac</b>. While FICO takes into account a handful of metrics when assessing borrowers, Upstart can measure 1,600 data points and deliver a decision instantly 70% of the time. It would likely take a human assessor days or even weeks to arrive at the same result, so Upstart offers a better experience for both the customer and the lender.</p><p>The company got its start by originating unsecured personal loans, which is a $96 billion annual market. But it recently expanded into auto loan originations, which is about seven times that size. The Upstart Auto Retail sales and origination platform now serves over 410 car dealerships across the U.S., and it&#39;s growing rapidly.</p><p>Upstart would have to increase its revenue by 18% each year to turn a $200,000 investment into $1 million by 2032, assuming its price-to-sales multiple remains constant.</p><table><thead><tr><th>Metric</th><th>2017</th><th>2021</th><th>CAGR</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p>Revenue</p></td><td><p>$57 million</p></td><td><p>$849 million</p></td><td><p>96%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Earnings (loss) per share</p></td><td><p>($0.56)</p></td><td><p>$2.37</p></td><td><p>N/A</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Data: Upstart Holdings. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.</p><p>Upstart is crushing the 18% growth mark, nearly doubling its revenue every year since 2017. On top of that, it&#39;s now a profitable company, making it far more attractive as an investment than most tech companies.</p><p>In its 2021 presentation, Upstart highlighted new potential markets like small-business lending and mortgages, which could send its annual opportunity into the trillions of dollars. Put simply, the company&#39;s best growth might still be ahead, and with its stock down 79.8% from its all-time high, it&#39;s a great time to add it to your portfolio.</p><h2>The case for Bill.com</h2><p>Business owners are spotlighted when it comes to software services that make monotonous administrative tasks less burdensome. Bill.com has grown to become a leading provider, thanks to its flagship accounts-payable platform helping to reduce messy paper trails. Its digital inbox technology centralizes incoming invoices so they don&#39;t get lost in the shuffle of everyday operations.</p><p>Bill.com allows business owners to pay those invoices with one click, and it also integrates with top accounting software so those transactions get logged into the books automatically. In 2021, the company acquired two other businesses to aid its expansion into new verticals. It now owns Invoice2go, which helps manage accounts receivable, and Divvy, a budgeting and expense management software.</p><p>Now, Bill.com is a go-to provider for all things related to business payments, and it serves 373,500 customers.</p><table><thead><tr><th>Metric</th><th>Fiscal 2018</th><th>Fiscal 2022 (Guidance)</th><th>CAGR</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p>Revenue</p></td><td><p>$64 million</p></td><td><p>$600 million</p></td><td><p>74%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Data: Bill.com. Fiscal years end June 30.</p><p>In the last few years, Bill.com&#39;s revenue growth has far exceeded the 18% it needs for its stock to grow fivefold over the next decade, assuming its stock valuation metrics remain where they are today. But there&#39;s even a possibility growth could accelerate.</p><p>The company has processed $181 billion in payment volume over the last 12 months, but it places its domestic opportunity at $25 trillion annually -- and a whopping $125 trillion globally.

While the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector index is down about 13.9% so far in 2022, it's still holding on to a gain of 423% over the last decade.In fact, the steep declines in many individual stocks could be an opportunity to buy into long-term growth stories at a discount for the decade ahead. Upstart Holdings and Bill.com Holdings are two fintechs with unique business models and soaring growth rates, making them prime candidates.Over the next 10 years, both stocks have the potential to deliver fivefold returns, especially if you buy them now while their stock is selling at a steep discount to levels reached in late 2021.The case for UpstartArtificial intelligence (AI) is a next-generation technology that promises to replace manual human input in many complex tasks. In this case, Upstart has developed an AI algorithm to assess the creditworthiness of potential borrowers, and it uses that information to originate loans for its banking partners.Banks pay Upstart a fee for the service, and it's proving to be a far more effective tool than the decades-old FICO credit scoring system from Fair Isaac. While FICO takes into account a handful of metrics when assessing borrowers, Upstart can measure 1,600 data points and deliver a decision instantly 70% of the time. It would likely take a human assessor days or even weeks to arrive at the same result, so Upstart offers a better experience for both the customer and the lender.The company got its start by originating unsecured personal loans, which is a $96 billion annual market. But it recently expanded into auto loan originations, which is about seven times that size. The Upstart Auto Retail sales and origination platform now serves over 410 car dealerships across the U.S., and it's growing rapidly.Upstart would have to increase its revenue by 18% each year to turn a $200,000 investment into $1 million by 2032, assuming its price-to-sales multiple remains constant.Metric20172021CAGRRevenue$57 million$849 million96%Earnings (loss) per share($0.56)$2.37N/AData: Upstart Holdings. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.Upstart is crushing the 18% growth mark, nearly doubling its revenue every year since 2017. On top of that, it's now a profitable company, making it far more attractive as an investment than most tech companies.In its 2021 presentation, Upstart highlighted new potential markets like small-business lending and mortgages, which could send its annual opportunity into the trillions of dollars. Put simply, the company's best growth might still be ahead, and with its stock down 79.8% from its all-time high, it's a great time to add it to your portfolio.The case for Bill.comBusiness owners are spotlighted when it comes to software services that make monotonous administrative tasks less burdensome. Bill.com has grown to become a leading provider, thanks to its flagship accounts-payable platform helping to reduce messy paper trails. Its digital inbox technology centralizes incoming invoices so they don't get lost in the shuffle of everyday operations.Bill.com allows business owners to pay those invoices with one click, and it also integrates with top accounting software so those transactions get logged into the books automatically. In 2021, the company acquired two other businesses to aid its expansion into new verticals. It now owns Invoice2go, which helps manage accounts receivable, and Divvy, a budgeting and expense management software.Now, Bill.com is a go-to provider for all things related to business payments, and it serves 373,500 customers.MetricFiscal 2018Fiscal 2022 (Guidance)CAGRRevenue$64 million$600 million74%Data: Bill.com. Fiscal years end June 30.In the last few years, Bill.com's revenue growth has far exceeded the 18% it needs for its stock to grow fivefold over the next decade, assuming its stock valuation metrics remain where they are today. But there's even a possibility growth could accelerate.The company has processed $181 billion in payment volume over the last 12 months, but it places its domestic opportunity at $25 trillion annually -- and a whopping $125 trillion globally. That leaves a significant runway, and since Bill.com has bolted-on two key acquisitions, it has a wider path to greater market share.The company also operates in a pool of 70 million global business customers. Keep in mind that it hasn't even cracked its first million yet, so there's significant room for expansion.Bill.com should kick into high gear over the next few years as it fine-tunes its new multifaceted business model. And since its stock has dipped 43.5% from its all-time high amid the tech sell-off, now might be the time to get involved.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":166,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9011215750,"gmtCreate":1648868434208,"gmtModify":1676534415090,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9011215750","repostId":"2224134076","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2224134076","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1648853352,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2224134076?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-02 06:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Wall St Posts Modest Gains as Jobs Report Keeps Fed Hikes on Track","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2224134076","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Unemployment drops to 3.6% vs estimate of 3.7%* Nonfarm payrolls rose by 431,000 jobs last month* GameStop seeks share split* Dow up 0.4%, S&P 500 up 0.3%, Nasdaq up 0.3%(Reuters) - The S&P 500 rose","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>* Unemployment drops to 3.6% vs estimate of 3.7%</p><p>* Nonfarm payrolls rose by 431,000 jobs last month</p><p>* GameStop seeks share split</p><p>* Dow up 0.4%, S&amp;P 500 up 0.3%, Nasdaq up 0.3%</p><p>(Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 rose modestly to kick off the second quarter on Friday, as the monthly jobs report indicated a strong labor market and is likely to keep the Federal Reserve on track to maintain its hawkish policy stance.</p><p>The Labor Department&#39;s employment report showed a rapid hiring pace by employers while wages continued to climb, although not enough to keep pace with inflation.</p><p>U.S. employers added 431,000 jobs in March, which was shy of the 490,000 estimate but still showed strong job gains.

The unemployment rate dropped to 3.6%, a new two-year low while average hourly earnings rose 5.6% on a year-over-year basis.The report heightened expectations that the central bank is likely to become more aggressive in raising interest rates as it seeks to curb inflation as it unwinds its easy monetary policy.\"Job gains were broad, more people are going back to the office,\" said Brian Jacobsen, senior investment strategist at Allspring Global Investments in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.\"If other data between now and the next Fed meeting stay this rosy, the Fed will likely feel comfortable hiking by 50 basis points and announcing an aggressive rundown of its balance sheet.\"The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 139.92 points, or 0.4%, to 34,818.27, the S&P 500 gained 15.45 points, or 0.34%, to 4,545.86 and the Nasdaq Composite added 40.98 points, or 0.29%, to 14,261.50.The defensive real estate, utilities and consumer staples were the best performing sectors on the day, with each rising more than 1%.For the week, the Dow slipped 0.1%, the S&P edged up 0.1% and the Nasdaq advanced 0.7%.Expectations for a 50-basis point interest rate hike at the central bank's May meeting stand at 73.3%, according to CME's FedWatch Tool.At its March meeting, the Fed raised rates by 25 basis 25 basis points, its first hike since 2018, and a host of central bank policymakers have indicated they are prepared for bigger rate hikes.Chicago Federal Reserve President Charles Evans said on Friday he does not see a big risk in using \"some\" half-point rate hikes to bring borrowing costs to neutral sooner as long as the objective was not to raise rates much faster and push them higher.Other data on Friday showed U.S. manufacturing activity unexpectedly slowed in March, although it remained firmly in expansion territory, as tight supply chains continued to put upward pressure on input prices.In the wake of the payrolls report, U.S. Treasury yields jumped and a closely watched part of the yield curve between two-year and 10-year notes, seen by many as a reliable indicator of a recession, inverted for the third time this week.The S&P 500 closed out the first quarter on Thursday with its biggest quarterly decline since the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. was reaching full swing on concerns about rising prices, fueled further by the war in Ukraine, and the Fed's response could slow economic growth. However, stocks rebounded somewhat in March, as the benchmark index gained 3.6%.April tends to be a strong month for stocks, with its last monthly decline in 2012. Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at LPL Financial, notes that April has the best performance on average of all months since 1950.Video game retailer GameStop Corp, part of the \"meme stock\" trading frenzy last year, gave up early gains and ended down 0.95% after announcing a plan to seek shareholder approval for a stock split.Apple Inc dipped 0.17% after J.P. Morgan removed the stock from its analyst \"focus list\" along with Qualcomm, which slumped 3.81%.Volume on U.S. exchanges was 11.45 billion shares, compared with the 13.78 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":89,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"content":"like pls","text":"like pls","html":"like pls"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":801281338,"gmtCreate":1627518654524,"gmtModify":1703491459813,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"There will always be ups n downs.&nbsp;","listText":"There will always be ups n downs.&nbsp;","text":"There will always be ups n downs.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/801281338","repostId":"1127264445","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127264445","pubTimestamp":1627514621,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127264445?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-29 07:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 ends off day's lows; Powell says Fed still a ways away from rate hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127264445","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after th","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after the Federal Reserve said the U.S. economic recovery remains on track and Chair Jerome <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/POWL\">Powell</a> said the central bank was still a ways away from considering raising interest rates.</p>\n<p>Keeping the market in check, shares of tech giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> Inc fell 1.2% after it forecast slowing revenue growth.</p>\n<p>In a news conference following the release of a new policy statement from the Fed, Powell also said the U.S. job market still had “some ground to cover” before it would be time to pull back from the economic support the U.S. central bank put in place in the spring of 2020 to battle the coronavirus pandemic’s economic shocks.</p>\n<p>“It looks like probably the most positive thing for the market was that they are nowhere near increasing interest rates,” said Alan Lancz, president, Alan B.

But analys","content":"<p>Square has been a better long-term stock-market performer and it is growing more quickly. But analysts, on the whole, prefer PayPal.</p><p>PayPal and Square are well-known to investors as rapidly growing players in the payment-processing space. They don't compete directly in all areas, but there are enough similarities to make a meaningful pairing.</p><p>Where PayPal and Square fit in</p><p>PayPal Holdings Inc. (PYPL) was spun off from eBay Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EBAY\">$(EBAY)$</a> in July 2015. Square was founded in 2009 by CEO Jack Dorsey and James McKelvey Jr. (a current board member), and went public in November 2015. Dorsey also serves as CEO of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc. (TWTR), which he co-founded in 2006.</p><p>PayPal said in its 2020 10-K filing  with the Securities and Exchange Commission that 13% of its revenue for the year came from customers on eBay's Marketplace platform. It also said that no other revenue source represented more than 10% of the whole.</p><p>PayPal makes it easy to do payments online through its secure digital wallet -- a user simply signs into their PayPal account to make a payment to the merchant from a bank account or credit card. The purchaser doesn't need to provide any financial information to the merchant.</p><p>During 2020, 93% of PayPal's revenue came from transactions, with the rest from \"other value-added services,\" a category that  has declined over the past two full years.</p><p>Square offers what it calls a \"cohesive commerce ecosystem,\" which includes hardware and software, to help merchants process point-of-sale transactions and online transactions. Square also has Cash App, which helps individual users, businesses and organizations transfer money or bitcoin  through the app or by email.</p><p>\"Customers can also use their stored funds to buy and sell bitcoin and equity investments within Cash App,\" according to Square's first-quarter 10-Q report .</p><p>Here's a comparison of quarterly and annual transaction volume for the two companies, with figures in millions:</p><p>PayPal has a much larger payment-processing business  than Square, and recently, its quarterly and annual transaction volumes have grown more rapidly.</p><p>Key metrics</p><p>Size, revenue and profit</p><p>Here is a comparison of the companies' market capitalizations and GAAP net revenue figures for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>GAAP stands for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, under which Square's revenue from its bitcoin holdings has caused the company's total revenue to balloon. Here's Square's more detailed revenue breakdown:</p><p>This illustrates why an investor considering an individual stock has to take a closer look to form their own opinion.</p><p>Here's what Square had to say about its revenue reporting in its first-quarter shareholder letter :</p><p>We deduct bitcoin revenue because our role is to facilitate customers' access to bitcoin. When customers buy bitcoin through Cash App, we only apply a small margin to the market cost of bitcoin, which tends to be volatile and outside our control. Therefore, we believe bitcoin gross profit better reflects the economic benefits as well as our performance from these transactions.</p><p>More from Square's shareholder letter:</p><p>While bitcoin revenue was $3.51 billion in the first quarter of 2021, up approximately 11x year over year, bitcoin gross profit was only $75 million, or approximately 2% of bitcoin revenue.</p><p>So Square's adjusted net revenue for the first quarter was $1.55 billion, increasing 44% from the year-earlier quarter.</p><p>Read:A bitcoin battle of the billionaires ensues as Jack Dorsey faces off with Musk on 'green' merits of world's No. 1 crypto</p><p>Excitement for bitcoin caused the spike in revenue for Square, as its Cash App users participated in the eightfold increase in the cryptocurrency's price in dollars over the 12 months through March 31.</p><p>Here's a comparison of gross profits (earnings before operating expenses) and operating profits (earnings before interest and taxes)  for PayPal and Square for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>PayPal has the larger payment-processing business, by far, while Square is growing its profits more quickly. Despite Square's point that it derives a relatively small portion of its profits from bitcoin revenue, the massive amount of revenue from bitcoin transactions, including customers' trades through Cash App, show the potential of this type of customer activity.</p><p>Returns on common equity and invested capital</p><p>These returns can give some insight into how well a management team deploys capital:</p><p>Return on invested capital is earnings divided by combined debt and equity. It is a measure of capital allocation efficiency and can be useful when comparing companies that are similar. In this case, none of these numbers are bad -- both companies are still growing their businesses in a dynamic environment.</p><p>Earnings estimates to 2025</p><p>Here are the actual earnings-per-share results for 2020 with consensus estimates among analysts polled by FactSet going out to 2025:</p><p>Here are estimated annual percentage  increases in EPS based on the above, plus an estimated five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR):</p><p>That five-year CAGR for Square is bumped up by the expected EPS breakout in 2021. But if we run a four-year EPS CAGR from 2021 through 2025, the results are 21% for PayPal and 46% for Square. Both are impressive, but Square comes out on top if analysts' estimates are close to accurate. This helps explain the much higher forward price-to-earnings ratio for Square that you can see further down.</p><p>Cash flow</p><p>In the modern economy, many investors believe free cash flow -- remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures -- is a critically important measure. One reason for this is that so many <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-time non-cash items can affect EPS. Another is that free cash flow can be deployed through business expansion, acquisitions, share buybacks dividends or other actions that will presumably be good for shareholders.</p><p>Square has had negative free cash flow <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FCF\">$(FCF)$</a> for two of the past four quarters, which isn't surprising, as the company emphasizes growing its business. So it may be most useful to look ahead. FactSet has consensus estimates for FCF per share going out to 2023:</p><p>Again, the analysts expect great things from both companies, especially Square.</p><p>Stock valuation and performance</p><p>Here are forward price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios based on consensus estimates for the next 12 months, along with total return figures:</p><p>Those are high valuations to expected earnings and sales.

Alphabet And Meta Returns Since 2013Portfolio Visualizer PremiumIn fact, both have crushed even the red hot Nasdaq during one of the hottest tech bull runs in US history, delivering Buffett-like 25% returns that resulted in an 8X return.YchartsWhile the market is currently in a correction, and growth stocks have been especially hard hit, Meta has been crushed, falling into a 50% bear market.I've bought both growth legends in this correction, but one is a core growth name in my correction plan, and the other is a non-core holding.So let me explain why both Meta and Alphabet are great companies, worth owning, and even buying more of right now.However, a careful examination of both of their fundamentals makes it clear that Alphabet is the global king of digital marketing, and this is likely to remain the case for the foreseeable future.The Challenge Facing Digital Marketers Right NoweMarketerGOOG, FB, and Amazon (AMZN) have a triopoly on US digital marketing, commanding an estimated 65% of the market.Both GOOG and FB are losing market share to AMZN because Amazon's ads are 3X as effective at converting to actual sales.That's because Amazon has spent decades gathering customer sales data and knows what its customers want better than anyone on earth.Apple's (AAPL) recent privacy shift in iOS, makes it much easier to opt out of data tracking, and 62% of iPhone users have indeed opted out.This has proven a hammer blow to FB, which management says could cost it $10 billion in 2022 alone.GOOG is less at risk since it still has the search data it can use to optimize for targeted ads.AMZN is the least at risk since it relies far less on cookie tracking than its rivals.This kind of business model disruption is part of FB and GOOG's risk profile, which brings us to our first point of comparison.Long-Term Risk Management: Winner AlphabetHow do we quantify, monitor, and track such a complex risk profile? By doing what big institutions do.Material Financial ESG Risk Analysis: How Large Institutions Measure Total Risk4 Things You Need To Know To Profit From ESG InvestingWhat Investors Need To Know About

on capital or ROC is Joel Greenblatt's gold standard proxy for quality and moatiness.ROC = pre-tax profit/operating capital (the money it takes to run the business).S&P 500's average in 2021 was 14.6%

Research Terminal, FactSet)In the past year, GOOG's return on capital was higher than FB's and it's also above its 13-year median indicating a more stable moat.In other words, when it comes to profitability, FB edges out GOOG by a small amount, except in terms of return on capital, where it's once more the winner.Valuation: Winner, MetaCompanyAverage Fair ValueCurrent PriceDiscount To Fair

perfect growth blue-chip opportunities as you can find on Wall Street right now.far superior valuationsuperior qualitysuperior long-term return potential to the S&P 500However, when we examine both companies in their entirety one fact is clear.GOOG is a higher quality companyGOOG is a faster-growing company (with potentially 2X better long-term return potential than FB)GOOG has far better long-term risk management (to deal with the disruption the digital advertising industry is currently facing)GOOG has superior return on capital and a more stable moatWhile FB offers superior valuation and potentially double the short-term return potential, it's a speculative blue-chip currently going through the largest business pivot in the company's history.In contrast, GOOG is a faster-growing Ultra SWAN that is expected to buy back almost $400 billion worth of stock in the next five years, double that of FB.Simply put, if you can only buy one of these growth legends today, I recommend Alphabet, and that's why I have it as a core growth position in my correction plan.Not just for the next few weeks, but all of 2022 and beyond.Because at the end of the day, when you focus on safety and quality first, and prudent valuation and sound risk-management always, you never have to pray for luck on Wall Street, you make your own.Luck is what happens when preparation meets, opportunity.\"

And while I am covering also companies from Germany, France, Great Britain, Sweden or Denmark, I have avoided one country almost completely although it has many interesting investment opportunities: Mainland China.The only company I covered so far&nbsp;is Tencent Holdings Limited (OTCPK:TCEHY).</p>\n<p>And although China has hundreds or thousands of successful companies, most of them are almost unknown in the Western Hemisphere (especially when moving outside of the investing world). And while most investors are familiar with Tencent, there is at least one other company almost every investor has heard of: Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA). In the following article, I will analyze Alibaba in my usual way. I will try to determine if Alibaba is a solid business with a wide economic moat and try to answer the question if Alibaba is a solid investment right now.</p>\n<p><b>Business Description</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba Group was founded in 1999 by 18 individuals. Nevertheless, one of these 18 stands out – the former English teacher from Hangzhou, Jack Ma. Over the years, Alibaba evolved in a multinational technology company and with a market capitalization of $570 billion, Alibaba is on the 10thspot on the list of most valuable companies in the world (by market cap). And behind Tencent, which is on the 7thspot on that list, Alibaba is the second most valuable company in China.</p>\n<p>While Alibaba is mostly focused on e-commerce and retail operations, the Alibaba Group is actually a holding company with many different sales services. This includes C2C services, B2C services and B2B services. Aside from retail, the Alibaba Group also offers electronic payment services, shipping search engines and could computing services. The group owns and operates a diverse portfolio of companies around the world in numerous business sectors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b315044f4644568e7df5d95cc6720995\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"><span>(Source:Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)</span></p>\n<p>Alibaba is reporting in four different segments:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Core Commerce Revenue</b>: This segment is comprised of platforms operating in retail and wholesale commerce in China as well as logistics services and local consumer services. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 621.1 billion in revenue and RMB 159 billion in income from operations.</li>\n <li><b>Cloud Computing Revenue</b>: This segment is comprised of Alibaba Cloud, which offers different cloud services to customers worldwide like database, storage, big data analytics, a machine learning platform and large-scale computing security. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 60.1 billion, but the segment was not profitable so far (a loss of RMB 9 billion).</li>\n <li><b>Digital Media and Entertainment Revenue</b>: This segment uses the deep data insights to serve the broader interests of consumers through key distribution platforms Youku and Alibaba Pictures as well as other content platforms that provide online videos, films, live events, literature and music. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 31.2 billion, but was also not profitable.</li>\n <li><b>Innovation Initiatives and Others Revenue</b>: This segment includes businesses like Amap, DingTalk, Tmall Genie and others. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 4.8 billion in revenue, but also an operating loss.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0529c547e87a4c0b023289ecb1822cbc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\"><span>(Source: Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)</span></p>\n<p>When looking at the last annual results (fiscal 2021), Alibaba generated RMB 717.3 billion in revenue. Compared to fiscal 2020 (RMB 509.7 billion) this is reflecting an increase of 41%. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2021 was RMB 196.8 billion – an increase of 25% compared to fiscal 2020 (adjusted EBITA of RMB 157.7 billion). Diluted earnings per share actually decreased from RMB 6.99 in fiscal 2020 to RMB 6.84 in fiscal 2021 – reflecting a decrease of 2.1%. But we should not pay too much attention to the earnings per share. Instead, it makes much more sense to look at the free cash flow Alibaba is generating. In fiscal 2021, Alibaba generated RMB 172.7 billion in free cash flow compared to RMB 130.9 billion in free cash flow one year earlier.</p>\n<p><b>Strong Business Among Strong Competitors</b></p>\n<p>What is striking when looking at Alibaba – and what has been discussed several times – is the low multiple for which Alibaba is currently trading. When using the trailing twelve-month GAAP numbers, Alibaba is trading for 25 times earnings, when using the non-GAAP forward numbers, it is trading for a P/E ratio of 20.</p>\n<p>We can compare Alibaba to its peers – companies like Amazon (AMZN), Tencent, Facebook (FB), Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG). And Alibaba actually belongs in that list as it is not only operating in similar business segments, but it is also growing with similarly high rates. And Alibaba is not only growing with a similar pace; it is actually outperforming most of its peers.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b576dcef2e37a02a6eba5677fded8ef8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"299\"><span>(Source:Alibaba 2020 Investor Presentations)</span></p>\n<p>While Alibaba is growing with a similar pace like these companies, it is trading for a completely different multiple. Right now, Alibaba is trading for a price-cash-flow ratio of 17, while competitors like Tencent, Facebook or Microsoft are trading for a P/FCF ratio between 35 and 40. It is striking, that the market is assigning these competitors a multiple twice as high and Amazon is actually trading for a multiple more than 4 times higher (price-free-cash-flow ratio of 76).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d2f58771a8062c7bb980622b93073e5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"470\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Right now, readers might point out, that the comparison to Amazon is misleading as Amazon is still spending a lot of money to achieve future growth and therefore has a lower profit than other companies. And it certainly is true, that Amazon is still focusing on top line growth – sometimes at the expense of bottom-line growth – but so does Alibaba.</p>\n<p>While Amazon spent 10.4% of its revenue as capital expenditures in the last fiscal year, Alibaba spent almost the same amount – 8.9% of revenue. And when looking at the expenses for research and development, we once again see similar numbers. In the last five years, Amazon spent 12.16% of revenue on R&amp;D on average while Alibaba spent 10.38% of its revenue on R&amp;D.</p>\n<p>But while these numbers are quite similar for both companies – Amazon is spending a bit more on R&amp;D than Alibaba – the free cash flow these two companies can generate is completely different. While Amazon only generated 6.7% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year, Alibaba generated 26.5% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year – almost four times higher.</p>\n<p>And Alibaba is not only extremely profitable – it was growing with an extremely high pace in the past. During the past ten years, Alibaba could not only grow revenue every single year, it also grew revenue with a CAGR of 62.6%. Earnings per share fluctuated a little bit during these ten years but grew with an even higher pace – a CAGR of 76.29% during the last decade. And finally, free cash flow increased with a CAGR of 59.62% during the last decade.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3ccaf170c0d86cd8022a68bc3657c30\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"404\"><span>(Source: Author’s work based on numbers from Morningstar)</span></p>\n<p>When looking at Alibaba’s growth rates in the last few years compared to its competitors, Alibaba is also outperforming. When looking at the revenue CAGR of the last 5 years, we get the following numbers:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Amazon: 29.26%</li>\n <li>Facebook: 36.82%</li>\n <li>Tencent: 36.20%</li>\n <li>Alphabet: 19.47%</li>\n <li>Microsoft: 8.85%</li>\n <li>Alibaba: 46.24%</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We can spin it how we want: Alibaba is an extremely profitable company growing with extremely high rates but is trading at an extremely low multiple compared to its competitors. It is growing with a higher pace than Microsoft and Facebook, but trading for half the multiple. It is much more profitable than Amazon and also growing at a higher pace, but trading for a quarter of the valuation multiple. At this point, profitability and growth of Alibaba on the one side and the valuation multiple on the other side does not add up. And we have to ask the question, why Alibaba is trading for such a low multiple although it is outperforming many of its peers that trade for much higher multiples.</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>When looking at the past performance of Alibaba, we can see, that steep selloffs are quite common as a similar sell-off happened already three times since the IPO in 2014 with the steepest sell-off being more than 50% off the previous high.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4da83a08f0dcfc73534c206e43cb09d3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data byYCharts</span></p>\n<p>While this might help us a bit, we are still facing high levels of uncertainty and investors usually don’t like uncertainty. Basically, this uncertainty can be summed up in one short sentence: The tense relationship between Alibaba’s founder Jack Ma and the Chinese government is worrying for investors. And this tense relationship is exemplified by several events. It started last year, when the IPO of the company’s fintech affiliate Ant Financial was cancelled. </p>\n<p>This was followed by theinitiation of an antitrust investigation, in which it is investigated if Alibaba had engaged in monopolistic practices (like preventing vendors from selling on other platforms). Additionally, new supervision for Ant Group was also discussed. And finally, at the end of 2020, Jack Ma went missing and it took about three months before the public would hear from him again – another worrying aspect for investors.</p>\n<p>As long as we are talking about risks, there are other aspect I like to mention. I compared Alibaba to Amazon above – and I still think that comparison is appropriate. But we also have to acknowledge, that Alibaba growth potential is limited as the company is mostly focused on China and might have more difficulties to expand globally – compared to Amazon. But considering the growing middle class in China and the high pace with which the economy is still growing we should not worry too much about Alibaba’s growth potential.</p>\n<p>There is a final risk Imentioned in my last article about Tencentand that risk is also applying to Alibaba:</p>\n<blockquote>\n And a final risk is the fact that Tencent is a Chinese company. It is especially difficult to understand different trends before they are happening and predict the future, but while I am familiar with the German culture and the people (habits, preferences, etc.) and can deal with similar countries like France, the United Kingdom, Sweden or the United States, it is rather difficult for me to understand and analyze the consumer behavior and preferences of the Chinese population. This makes it difficult to assess the potential and development of the products and services Tencent offers.\n</blockquote>\n<p>But despite all these issues, there is a comparison I like very much. Very recently,one of my fellow contributorscompared Alibaba’s situation right now to Facebook a few years ago, when it was facing the Cambridge Analytics scandal and also trading for extremely low multiples due to the uncertainties. And it is also interesting, that Wall Street analysts as well as Seeking Alpha contributors are extremely bullish about Alibaba right now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44d2ece5c1460e539c9fd4fb4ba63bf7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"195\"><span>(Source:Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p><b>Balance Sheet</b></p>\n<p>When facing challenges, it is especially reassuring if we are dealing with a solid balance sheet enabling the company to withstand challenges and stormy market conditions. And similar to many companies mentioned above – like Facebook or Alphabet – Alibaba also has a great balance sheet. We don’t have to worry about high debt levels although Alibaba has current bank borrowings of RMB 3.6 billion and non-current bank borrowings of RMB 38.3 billion on its balance sheet. But compared to a total equity of RMB 1,075 billion, we get a D/E ratio of 0.04, which is negligible. Aside from the debt, the biggest problem is probably the company’s goodwill. On March 31, 2021, Alibaba had RMB 292.8 billion in goodwill. This means, that 17.3% of total assets (RMB 1,690 billion) is goodwill.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532919e61e3feb83d46cbce44e3f3c42\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"354\"><span>(Source:Alibaba Q4/21 Earnings Release)</span></p>\n<p>But aside from goodwill, Alibaba also has RMB 321.3 billion in cash and cash equivalents as well as RMB 152.4 billion in short-term investments on its balance sheet. Aside from these rather liquid assets, Alibaba also has RMB 237.2 billion in equity securities and other investments, that are also worth mentioning. I included a screenshot of the latest balance sheet, which is also including the numbers in US$. Especially $72 billion in very liquid assets give Alibaba a lot of “financial power” and the ability to negative troubles.</p>\n<p><b>Intrinsic Value Calculation</b></p>\n<p>I already mentioned above that Alibaba is trading at rather low multiples – at least when compared to its peers and especially for a company growing with a high pace. And compared to the company’s history, the stock is right now trading almost for its lowest P/FCF ratio since the IPO. A few times – in 2016, 2018 and 2020 – the stock was trading at a similar low P/FCF ratio. From that point of view, Alibaba has to be considered extremely cheap.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d1da4ac18557b21c43feb2a338de9a3b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"221\"><span>(Source:Seeking Alpha Charting)</span></p>\n<p>When you are familiar with my past articles, you know that I don’t just use valuation multiples but also a discount cash flow analysis, which is considered to be much more precise (although we have to make a lot more assumptions). When taking the free cash flow of fiscal 2021 (RMB 172.7 billion) as basis, Alibaba has to grow about 5.5% annually from now till perpetuity for the stock to be fairly valued (the intrinsic value is RMB 1,367; discount rate 10%).</p>\n<p>Instead, we can also calculate with more realistic growth rates. If we assume, that Alibaba won’t go under, we have to assume at least 20% growth for the next year. Let’s be rather pessimistic and assume, that growth will slowly decline over the next decade and in 10 years from now, the growth rate will only be 6% till perpetuity. When using these numbers, we get an intrinsic value of&nbsp;<b>RMB 2,596</b>. And we have to assume, that these growth assumptions are rather cautious for a company like Alibaba.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>So far, we talked about risks, about past growth rates, compared Alibaba to its peers and provided an intrinsic value calculation. I also wanted to write about the growth potential as well as the wide economic moat, that Alibaba has without any doubt – similar toAmazon,FacebookorTencent. But the article would probably be too long then. Instead, I included links to three articles in which I described the economic moat of these businesses.</p>\n<p>When summing up, it is quite simple. When we assume, that Alibaba is in serious trouble and might be brought down in some way or is facing troubles, that will seriously mess with the company’s ability to grow, we should not invest in Alibaba. These risks are present, and we actually don’t know what could happen in the coming quarters (or years). However, I consider it extremely unlikely, that China will destroy its second most-valuable company. If we assume on the other side, that this is just a small hick-up and troubles Alibaba can work through in the coming quarters and Alibaba will continue to perform in a similar way as in the past (even with growth rates slowing down), Alibaba is probably one of the most undervalued stocks out there and an extreme bargain.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: One Of The Really Cheap Bargains In This Market</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAlibaba: One Of The Really Cheap Bargains In This Market\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-01 20:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432358-alibaba-one-of-the-really-cheap-bargains-in-market><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAlibaba is one of the largest corporations in the world and focusing on retail, cloud and payment services.\nThe company is clearly facing risks due to the tension between Jack Ma and the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432358-alibaba-one-of-the-really-cheap-bargains-in-market\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BABA":"阿里巴巴","09988":"阿里巴巴-W"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432358-alibaba-one-of-the-really-cheap-bargains-in-market","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1138216687","content_text":"Summary\n\nAlibaba is one of the largest corporations in the world and focusing on retail, cloud and payment services.\nThe company is clearly facing risks due to the tension between Jack Ma and the Chinese government, but I consider these risks to be only temporary.\nAlibaba is growing with a high pace, has a very stable balance sheet and outperforming many of its peers.\nIn my opinion, the stock is severely undervalued.\n\nPhoto by maybefalse/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nSo far, I have published over 300 articles on this site and the focus has been clearly on companies having the headquarters in the United States and stocks listed on an US-based stock exchange. And while I am covering also companies from Germany, France, Great Britain, Sweden or Denmark, I have avoided one country almost completely although it has many interesting investment opportunities: Mainland China.The only company I covered so far is Tencent Holdings Limited (OTCPK:TCEHY).\nAnd although China has hundreds or thousands of successful companies, most of them are almost unknown in the Western Hemisphere (especially when moving outside of the investing world). And while most investors are familiar with Tencent, there is at least one other company almost every investor has heard of: Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA). In the following article, I will analyze Alibaba in my usual way. I will try to determine if Alibaba is a solid business with a wide economic moat and try to answer the question if Alibaba is a solid investment right now.\nBusiness Description\nAlibaba Group was founded in 1999 by 18 individuals. Nevertheless, one of these 18 stands out – the former English teacher from Hangzhou, Jack Ma. Over the years, Alibaba evolved in a multinational technology company and with a market capitalization of $570 billion, Alibaba is on the 10thspot on the list of most valuable companies in the world (by market cap). And behind Tencent, which is on the 7thspot on that list, Alibaba is the second most valuable company in China.\nWhile Alibaba is mostly focused on e-commerce and retail operations, the Alibaba Group is actually a holding company with many different sales services. This includes C2C services, B2C services and B2B services. Aside from retail, the Alibaba Group also offers electronic payment services, shipping search engines and could computing services. The group owns and operates a diverse portfolio of companies around the world in numerous business sectors.\n(Source:Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)\nAlibaba is reporting in four different segments:\n\nCore Commerce Revenue: This segment is comprised of platforms operating in retail and wholesale commerce in China as well as logistics services and local consumer services. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 621.1 billion in revenue and RMB 159 billion in income from operations.\nCloud Computing Revenue: This segment is comprised of Alibaba Cloud, which offers different cloud services to customers worldwide like database, storage, big data analytics, a machine learning platform and large-scale computing security. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 60.1 billion, but the segment was not profitable so far (a loss of RMB 9 billion).\nDigital Media and Entertainment Revenue: This segment uses the deep data insights to serve the broader interests of consumers through key distribution platforms Youku and Alibaba Pictures as well as other content platforms that provide online videos, films, live events, literature and music. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 31.2 billion, but was also not profitable.\nInnovation Initiatives and Others Revenue: This segment includes businesses like Amap, DingTalk, Tmall Genie and others. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 4.8 billion in revenue, but also an operating loss.\n\n(Source: Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)\nWhen looking at the last annual results (fiscal 2021), Alibaba generated RMB 717.3 billion in revenue. Compared to fiscal 2020 (RMB 509.7 billion) this is reflecting an increase of 41%. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2021 was RMB 196.8 billion – an increase of 25% compared to fiscal 2020 (adjusted EBITA of RMB 157.7 billion). Diluted earnings per share actually decreased from RMB 6.99 in fiscal 2020 to RMB 6.84 in fiscal 2021 – reflecting a decrease of 2.1%. But we should not pay too much attention to the earnings per share. Instead, it makes much more sense to look at the free cash flow Alibaba is generating. In fiscal 2021, Alibaba generated RMB 172.7 billion in free cash flow compared to RMB 130.9 billion in free cash flow one year earlier.\nStrong Business Among Strong Competitors\nWhat is striking when looking at Alibaba – and what has been discussed several times – is the low multiple for which Alibaba is currently trading. When using the trailing twelve-month GAAP numbers, Alibaba is trading for 25 times earnings, when using the non-GAAP forward numbers, it is trading for a P/E ratio of 20.\nWe can compare Alibaba to its peers – companies like Amazon (AMZN), Tencent, Facebook (FB), Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG). And Alibaba actually belongs in that list as it is not only operating in similar business segments, but it is also growing with similarly high rates. And Alibaba is not only growing with a similar pace; it is actually outperforming most of its peers.\n(Source:Alibaba 2020 Investor Presentations)\nWhile Alibaba is growing with a similar pace like these companies, it is trading for a completely different multiple. Right now, Alibaba is trading for a price-cash-flow ratio of 17, while competitors like Tencent, Facebook or Microsoft are trading for a P/FCF ratio between 35 and 40. It is striking, that the market is assigning these competitors a multiple twice as high and Amazon is actually trading for a multiple more than 4 times higher (price-free-cash-flow ratio of 76).\nData by YCharts\nRight now, readers might point out, that the comparison to Amazon is misleading as Amazon is still spending a lot of money to achieve future growth and therefore has a lower profit than other companies. And it certainly is true, that Amazon is still focusing on top line growth – sometimes at the expense of bottom-line growth – but so does Alibaba.\nWhile Amazon spent 10.4% of its revenue as capital expenditures in the last fiscal year, Alibaba spent almost the same amount – 8.9% of revenue. And when looking at the expenses for research and development, we once again see similar numbers. In the last five years, Amazon spent 12.16% of revenue on R&D on average while Alibaba spent 10.38% of its revenue on R&D.\nBut while these numbers are quite similar for both companies – Amazon is spending a bit more on R&D than Alibaba – the free cash flow these two companies can generate is completely different. While Amazon only generated 6.7% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year, Alibaba generated 26.5% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year – almost four times higher.\nAnd Alibaba is not only extremely profitable – it was growing with an extremely high pace in the past. During the past ten years, Alibaba could not only grow revenue every single year, it also grew revenue with a CAGR of 62.6%. Earnings per share fluctuated a little bit during these ten years but grew with an even higher pace – a CAGR of 76.29% during the last decade. And finally, free cash flow increased with a CAGR of 59.62% during the last decade.\n(Source: Author’s work based on numbers from Morningstar)\nWhen looking at Alibaba’s growth rates in the last few years compared to its competitors, Alibaba is also outperforming. When looking at the revenue CAGR of the last 5 years, we get the following numbers:\n\nAmazon: 29.26%\nFacebook: 36.82%\nTencent: 36.20%\nAlphabet: 19.47%\nMicrosoft: 8.85%\nAlibaba: 46.24%\n\nWe can spin it how we want: Alibaba is an extremely profitable company growing with extremely high rates but is trading at an extremely low multiple compared to its competitors. It is growing with a higher pace than Microsoft and Facebook, but trading for half the multiple. It is much more profitable than Amazon and also growing at a higher pace, but trading for a quarter of the valuation multiple. At this point, profitability and growth of Alibaba on the one side and the valuation multiple on the other side does not add up. And we have to ask the question, why Alibaba is trading for such a low multiple although it is outperforming many of its peers that trade for much higher multiples.\nRisks\nWhen looking at the past performance of Alibaba, we can see, that steep selloffs are quite common as a similar sell-off happened already three times since the IPO in 2014 with the steepest sell-off being more than 50% off the previous high.\nData byYCharts\nWhile this might help us a bit, we are still facing high levels of uncertainty and investors usually don’t like uncertainty. Basically, this uncertainty can be summed up in one short sentence: The tense relationship between Alibaba’s founder Jack Ma and the Chinese government is worrying for investors. And this tense relationship is exemplified by several events. It started last year, when the IPO of the company’s fintech affiliate Ant Financial was cancelled. \nThis was followed by theinitiation of an antitrust investigation, in which it is investigated if Alibaba had engaged in monopolistic practices (like preventing vendors from selling on other platforms). Additionally, new supervision for Ant Group was also discussed. And finally, at the end of 2020, Jack Ma went missing and it took about three months before the public would hear from him again – another worrying aspect for investors.\nAs long as we are talking about risks, there are other aspect I like to mention. I compared Alibaba to Amazon above – and I still think that comparison is appropriate. But we also have to acknowledge, that Alibaba growth potential is limited as the company is mostly focused on China and might have more difficulties to expand globally – compared to Amazon. But considering the growing middle class in China and the high pace with which the economy is still growing we should not worry too much about Alibaba’s growth potential.\nThere is a final risk Imentioned in my last article about Tencentand that risk is also applying to Alibaba:\n\n And a final risk is the fact that Tencent is a Chinese company. It is especially difficult to understand different trends before they are happening and predict the future, but while I am familiar with the German culture and the people (habits, preferences, etc.) and can deal with similar countries like France, the United Kingdom, Sweden or the United States, it is rather difficult for me to understand and analyze the consumer behavior and preferences of the Chinese population. This makes it difficult to assess the potential and development of the products and services Tencent offers.\n\nBut despite all these issues, there is a comparison I like very much. Very recently,one of my fellow contributorscompared Alibaba’s situation right now to Facebook a few years ago, when it was facing the Cambridge Analytics scandal and also trading for extremely low multiples due to the uncertainties. And it is also interesting, that Wall Street analysts as well as Seeking Alpha contributors are extremely bullish about Alibaba right now.\n(Source:Seeking Alpha)\nBalance Sheet\nWhen facing challenges, it is especially reassuring if we are dealing with a solid balance sheet enabling the company to withstand challenges and stormy market conditions. And similar to many companies mentioned above – like Facebook or Alphabet – Alibaba also has a great balance sheet. We don’t have to worry about high debt levels although Alibaba has current bank borrowings of RMB 3.6 billion and non-current bank borrowings of RMB 38.3 billion on its balance sheet. But compared to a total equity of RMB 1,075 billion, we get a D/E ratio of 0.04, which is negligible. Aside from the debt, the biggest problem is probably the company’s goodwill. On March 31, 2021, Alibaba had RMB 292.8 billion in goodwill. This means, that 17.3% of total assets (RMB 1,690 billion) is goodwill.\n(Source:Alibaba Q4/21 Earnings Release)\nBut aside from goodwill, Alibaba also has RMB 321.3 billion in cash and cash equivalents as well as RMB 152.4 billion in short-term investments on its balance sheet. Aside from these rather liquid assets, Alibaba also has RMB 237.2 billion in equity securities and other investments, that are also worth mentioning. I included a screenshot of the latest balance sheet, which is also including the numbers in US$. Especially $72 billion in very liquid assets give Alibaba a lot of “financial power” and the ability to negative troubles.\nIntrinsic Value Calculation\nI already mentioned above that Alibaba is trading at rather low multiples – at least when compared to its peers and especially for a company growing with a high pace. And compared to the company’s history, the stock is right now trading almost for its lowest P/FCF ratio since the IPO. A few times – in 2016, 2018 and 2020 – the stock was trading at a similar low P/FCF ratio. From that point of view, Alibaba has to be considered extremely cheap.\n(Source:Seeking Alpha Charting)\nWhen you are familiar with my past articles, you know that I don’t just use valuation multiples but also a discount cash flow analysis, which is considered to be much more precise (although we have to make a lot more assumptions). When taking the free cash flow of fiscal 2021 (RMB 172.7 billion) as basis, Alibaba has to grow about 5.5% annually from now till perpetuity for the stock to be fairly valued (the intrinsic value is RMB 1,367; discount rate 10%).\nInstead, we can also calculate with more realistic growth rates. If we assume, that Alibaba won’t go under, we have to assume at least 20% growth for the next year. Let’s be rather pessimistic and assume, that growth will slowly decline over the next decade and in 10 years from now, the growth rate will only be 6% till perpetuity. When using these numbers, we get an intrinsic value of RMB 2,596. And we have to assume, that these growth assumptions are rather cautious for a company like Alibaba.\nConclusion\nSo far, we talked about risks, about past growth rates, compared Alibaba to its peers and provided an intrinsic value calculation. I also wanted to write about the growth potential as well as the wide economic moat, that Alibaba has without any doubt – similar toAmazon,FacebookorTencent. But the article would probably be too long then. Instead, I included links to three articles in which I described the economic moat of these businesses.\nWhen summing up, it is quite simple. When we assume, that Alibaba is in serious trouble and might be brought down in some way or is facing troubles, that will seriously mess with the company’s ability to grow, we should not invest in Alibaba. These risks are present, and we actually don’t know what could happen in the coming quarters (or years). However, I consider it extremely unlikely, that China will destroy its second most-valuable company. If we assume on the other side, that this is just a small hick-up and troubles Alibaba can work through in the coming quarters and Alibaba will continue to perform in a similar way as in the past (even with growth rates slowing down), Alibaba is probably one of the most undervalued stocks out there and an extreme bargain.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":65,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":131612239,"gmtCreate":1621854310621,"gmtModify":1704363321427,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice!","listText":"Nice!","text":"Nice!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/131612239","repostId":"1146017349","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146017349","pubTimestamp":1621843320,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146017349?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-24 16:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"ZipRecruiter Is Going Public This Month.

It will trade under the symbol ZIP.ZipRecruiter itself is not selling shares with the offering and will not receive proceeds from the direct listing. Instead, its shareholders will offer up to 86,598,896 shares of Class A common stock for resale, according to the document.ZipRecruiter will be the third company this year to use a direct listing to go public:Coinbase(ticker: COIN), a cryptocurrency exchange, used the method to list its shares in April on the Nasdaq, after the gaming platform Roblox(RBLX) did so for its March debut on the NYSE. (Squarespace, a website design company,has also filed to go public via a direct listing on the NYSE, but has yet to set a trading date.)Companies mainly use direct listings because they’re cheaper than traditional IPOs and allow shareholders to sell their stock to the public without intermediaries. In a traditional IPO, a company sells shares and uses an investment bank or banks to underwrite the deals. But in a direct listing, a bank or banks typically work as financial advisors for the company going public.ZipRecruiter has lined up six investment banks—Goldman Sachs(GS),JPMorgan Chase(JPM), Barclays Capital,Evercore Group(EVR), William Blair and Raymond James—to advise on the upcoming offering. However, only Goldman and JPMorgan Chase will consult with a designated market maker to set ZipRecruiter’s opening price.Direct listings typically do not include lockups, which prevent shareholders from selling for a certain period of time. ZipRecruiter stockholders, similarly, will be able to selltheir shares as soon as the company lists later this month.In a traditional IPO, a company will have a roadshow where the management team makes presentations to institutional investors to create interest in the stock. Direct listings have replaced the roadshow with the investor day, when investors typically learn about a company going public via a webcast meeting. ZipRecruiter is hosting its investor day on May 10.Founded in 2010, ZipRecruiter is an employment marketplace for people looking for work and businesses seeking employees. More than 2.8 million businesses have used ZipRecruiter to find an employee while 110 million jobseekers have sought employment on the site, the filing said. The company became profitable in 2020, reporting $86 million in income from $6.3 million in losses in 2019. Revenue droppednearly 3% to $418 million in 2020, the prospectus said.ZipRecruiter has raised $219 million in funding, according to Crunchbase. This includes a $156 million round in 2018 co-led by Wellington Management Company and Institutional Venture Partners, or IVP. IVP owns the biggest chunk of ZipRecruiter’s voting power—21.1%.Several shareholders have registered their class A common stock, which they may or may not sell via the direct listing, the prospectus said. IVP has registered about 22.7 million Class A shares, while Wellington is offering roughly 1.9 million shares. ZipRecruiter CEO Ian Siegel has put up 10.5 million Class A shares.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":240,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3575596393140561","authorId":"3575596393140561","name":"tinacheekyle","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2373874b2bf69f2637ce056a6f56ada","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3575596393140561","idStr":"3575596393140561"},"content":"pls reply this comment. thanks","text":"pls reply this comment. thanks","html":"pls reply this comment. thanks"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9069708377,"gmtCreate":1651361046274,"gmtModify":1676534893129,"author":{"id":"3584658134750205","authorId":"3584658134750205","name":"Linnleo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57e83af12c17b31db1fb1b80ea44c6a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584658134750205","idStr":"3584658134750205"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9069708377","repostId":"1191701836","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191701836","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":1651332063,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191701836?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-30 23:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Warren Buffett: We Didn't Repurchase Any Berkshire Stock in April","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191701836","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Warren Buffett hasn't used the market pullback in April to repurchase any shares of Berkshire Hathaw","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Warren Buffett hasn&#39;t used the market pullback in April to repurchase any shares of Berkshire Hathaway, perhaps a signal he expects more volatility ahead amid rising interest rates and nagging inflationary pressures.</p><p>&#34;We haven&#39;t repurchased any shares at all in April,&#34;
