The data center segment was Nvidia's second-largest business in fiscal 2022 as it produced 39% of its total revenue. The company's data center revenue increased 58% last fiscal year to a record $10.6 billion.

Put another way, market crashes are also often the best times to double up on shares of top companies while they're still cheap. Like these three growth stocks that look so compelling you'd want to park some money into them right now.</p><h2>Buy the dip in this industry leader</h2><p>If you have patience, can stomach volatility, and are a risk-taker, consider buying shares of <b>Teladoc Health</b> now. I understand that's a lot to ask, but that's where things stand after the dramatic recent plunge in Teladoc's stock price. Yet Teladoc is a leader in an industry that's only just getting started, and if the company can continue growing its revenue double-digits, the stock should get its due in due time.</p><p>Teladoc stock lost almost half its value in <i><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a></i> day on April 28 after the telehealth giant slashed its outlook for 2022 and reported a huge loss for its first quarter as it recorded a $6.6 billion non-cash goodwill impairment charge. Once a Wall Street darling that saw demand for its virtual care services soar during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Teladoc stock is barely getting any love now.</p><p>It's true that demand for virtual medical consultations has faded as the pandemic eased, but it's also true that Teladoc still grew its Q1 revenue by 25% and expects to grow revenue by 18%-23% this year. With more organizations and governments worldwide digitizing services wherever possible, demand for telehealth is expected to grow double-digits in the years to come. Teladoc also specializes in virtual chronic disease management, and as the world's largest telehealth company, has a lot of power to navigate storms.</p><p>For example, high advertising rates are pressurizing margins for Teladoc's BetterHelp direct-to-consumer mental health business. Yet, Teladoc's scale still gives it the leeway to spend more money on the business to boost sales. In fact, Teladoc still expects 2022 BetterHelp revenue to grow in the "upper half" of its long-term mental health revenue growth target of 30%-40% per year.</p><p>Also, Teladoc wants to focus on whole-person care than individual solutions, meaning it wants customers to use multiple products. This strategy could hugely boost customer stickiness and bring in more revenue per customer in the long run, which should eventually translate into more stable revenues and margins. In Q1, multiproduct sales made up 78% of Teladoc's total sales.</p><p>It's safe to assume Teladoc's growth won't be easy to come by at least in the near term, but it's also hard to argue the growth potential in telehealth. Teladoc is still transitioning from individual to whole-person offerings, and it's only fair to give the company time to prove itself. If Teladoc can deliver, you'd look back and regret not buying the stock on days like today.</p><h2>This industry is growing by leaps and bounds, and so is this stock</h2><p>If you've been following the red-hot electric vehicle (EV) industry closely, you wouldn't be surprised to find an EV stock on a list of growth stocks. What might surprise you though is the stock I'm going to name now: <b>BYD</b>.</p><p>Based in China, BYD is absolutely crushing it the world's largest EV market. BYD is, in fact, the largest seller of new energy vehicles (NEV) in China, and was the second-largest seller of plug-in EVs worldwide in 2021, second only to <b>Tesla</b>. Yet while Tesla must abide by China's rules for foreign companies that can throttle growth at times, BYD has a clout that's hard to match. <i>And</i>, Tesla's sales growth pales in comparison to BYD's.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17a5d31c55d9368745e4ffc7d4746c34\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"668\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Image source: Statista.</p><p>Even in April, when sales for most automakers nosedived as they suspended operations amid COVID-19 lockdowns, BYD's NEV sales rocketed 313% higher year over year and were up a percentage point sequentially. BYD's sales of 106,042 NEVs last month was in fact a record for the company.</p><p>There's a lot more to BYD. It is also one of the largest lithium-ion battery makers in China. With prices of lithium reaching for the skies amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict and demand soaring even as supply remains tight as EV sales boom, BYD is sitting on a massive cash machine.</p><p>BYD took a big leap last month when it discontinued manufacturing of gasoline vehicles as it strives to become a pure EV play. This move itself reflects BYD"s confidence in making it big in the EV industry, and with the industry itself only just getting started, BYD is the kind of stock you'd want to put your money on.</p><h2>Dirt-cheap stock for its growth potential</h2><p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a></b> is a leader in customer relationship management (CRM) software. Simply put, the company manages all customer information for organizations of all types and sizes to help them build client relationships and boost customer retention and sales.</p><p>To give you an example, A brick-and-mortar consumer goods company that's turning to e-commerce uses CRM software to view all customer information and interaction at one place.

Put another way, market crashes are also often the best times to double up on shares of top companies while they're still cheap. Like these three growth stocks that look so compelling you'd want to park some money into them right now.Buy the dip in this industry leaderIf you have patience, can stomach volatility, and are a risk-taker, consider buying shares of Teladoc Health now. I understand that's a lot to ask, but that's where things stand after the dramatic recent plunge in Teladoc's stock price. Yet Teladoc is a leader in an industry that's only just getting started, and if the company can continue growing its revenue double-digits, the stock should get its due in due time.Teladoc stock lost almost half its value in one day on April 28 after the telehealth giant slashed its outlook for 2022 and reported a huge loss for its first quarter as it recorded a $6.6 billion non-cash goodwill impairment charge. Once a Wall Street darling that saw demand for its virtual care services soar during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Teladoc stock is barely getting any love now.It's true that demand for virtual medical consultations has faded as the pandemic eased, but it's also true that Teladoc still grew its Q1 revenue by 25% and expects to grow revenue by 18%-23% this year. With more organizations and governments worldwide digitizing services wherever possible, demand for telehealth is expected to grow double-digits in the years to come. Teladoc also specializes in virtual chronic disease management, and as the world's largest telehealth company, has a lot of power to navigate storms.For example, high advertising rates are pressurizing margins for Teladoc's BetterHelp direct-to-consumer mental health business. Yet, Teladoc's scale still gives it the leeway to spend more money on the business to boost sales. In fact, Teladoc still expects 2022 BetterHelp revenue to grow in the \"upper half\" of its long-term mental health revenue growth target of 30%-40% per year.Also, Teladoc wants to focus on whole-person care than individual solutions, meaning it wants customers to use multiple products. This strategy could hugely boost customer stickiness and bring in more revenue per customer in the long run, which should eventually translate into more stable revenues and margins. In Q1, multiproduct sales made up 78% of Teladoc's total sales.It's safe to assume Teladoc's growth won't be easy to come by at least in the near term, but it's also hard to argue the growth potential in telehealth. Teladoc is still transitioning from individual to whole-person offerings, and it's only fair to give the company time to prove itself. If Teladoc can deliver, you'd look back and regret not buying the stock on days like today.This industry is growing by leaps and bounds, and so is this stockIf you've been following the red-hot electric vehicle (EV) industry closely, you wouldn't be surprised to find an EV stock on a list of growth stocks. What might surprise you though is the stock I'm going to name now: BYD.Based in China, BYD is absolutely crushing it the world's largest EV market. BYD is, in fact, the largest seller of new energy vehicles (NEV) in China, and was the second-largest seller of plug-in EVs worldwide in 2021, second only to Tesla. Yet while Tesla must abide by China's rules for foreign companies that can throttle growth at times, BYD has a clout that's hard to match. And, Tesla's sales growth pales in comparison to BYD's.Image source: Statista.Even in April, when sales for most automakers nosedived as they suspended operations amid COVID-19 lockdowns, BYD's NEV sales rocketed 313% higher year over year and were up a percentage point sequentially. BYD's sales of 106,042 NEVs last month was in fact a record for the company.There's a lot more to BYD. It is also one of the largest lithium-ion battery makers in China. With prices of lithium reaching for the skies amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict and demand soaring even as supply remains tight as EV sales boom, BYD is sitting on a massive cash machine.BYD took a big leap last month when it discontinued manufacturing of gasoline vehicles as it strives to become a pure EV play. This move itself reflects BYD\"s confidence in making it big in the EV industry, and with the industry itself only just getting started, BYD is the kind of stock you'd want to put your money on.Dirt-cheap stock for its growth potentialSalesforce is a leader in customer relationship management (CRM) software. Simply put, the company manages all customer information for organizations of all types and sizes to help them build client relationships and boost customer retention and sales.To give you an example, A brick-and-mortar consumer goods company that's turning to e-commerce uses CRM software to view all customer information and interaction at one place.

The debate regarding Tesla, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:TSLA) valuation continues to be a topic of conversation between the bulls and the bears. Oneside argues that TSLA's financial growth and future prospects, including FSD, insurance, and robotaxis, justify the current $902.12 billion valuations, while others argue that the current financials and cult-like following have led to a massive overvaluation in TSLA's stock.</p><p>I tip my hat to Elon Musk, as his accomplishments are second to none. When others called him crazy, Mr. Musk chose one of the hardest industries to compete in, started TSLA from the ground up, went to battle against the auto manufacturers, and succeeded. TSLA is one of the rare success stories that has truly shaped an industry, and the barriers of entry that were overcome are astonishing. TSLA didn't have the capital, manufacturing, credibility, or the infrastructure that its competitors did, yet they found a way to succeed. If the odds weren't enough which TSLA faced, they accomplished their goals without a combustible engine and pioneered an entirely new sector within the automotive industry.</p><p>Just because TSLA is a great company, it doesn't mean TSLA has a great stock, or it isn't overvalued. I am not bearish on TSLA the company because I believe they still have a long runway of growth ahead of them, but I am bearish on the valuation. Prior to leaving a comment on why I am wrong, please read the article and think about the metrics I am citing; then, I will happily discuss any viewpoints about the analysis.</p><p><b>Tesla Vs. The World In The Automotive Sector</b></p><p>It feels like TSLA vs. the world whenever TSLA is discussed. Discussing who makes a better automobile is a matter of opinion, and everyone is correct because it's their opinion. If person A thinks TSLA makes the best car and person B thinks Mercedes Benz makes the best car, they are both correct. Debating over this is pointless, so let's look at the raw numbers.</p><p>TSLA has a larger market cap than the combination ofToyota(TM),Volkswagen(OTCPK:VWAGY),Daimler(OTCPK:DDAIF),BMW(OTCPK:BMWYY),General Motors(GM),Ford(F),Honda(HMC),Ferrari(RACE),Nissan(OTCPK:NSANY),Subaru(OTCPK:FUJHY),Volvo(OTCPK:VOLAF), andMazda(OTCPK:MZDAY).

The combination of TM, VWAGY, DDAIF, BMWYY, GM, F, HMC, RACE, NSANY, FUJHY, VOLAF, and MZDAY has generated $1.38 trillion in revenue over the TTM, putting their P/S at 0.56, while TSLA has generated $62.19 billion in revenue and has a 15.87 P/S.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c9b9661fde232925a758c38fd2e93f36\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"330\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>As a combined entity, these 12 companies have generated $118.29 billion in net income, while TSLA has produced $8.4 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d25806eb839eb9ca2b4ef3c24218048c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"330\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>TSLA is a great company, but its current valuation has become overly inflated. TSLA's market cap is $209.52 billion larger than these 12 auto manufacturers, yet the combination of the 12 auto manufacturers generates $1.32 trillion more in revenue and $109.89 billion more in net income.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1b686de4009ca733ff9651ce0d9fcaf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"348\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>Looking at the market caps, one would assume that TSLA has a dominant majority over its competitors in auto sales within the U.S. According to the2021 data, TSLA sold 2.02% of all vehicles in the U.S. TSLA's market cap reflects a level of dominance that is non-existent.</p><p>Realistically, TSLA will have a hard time disrupting the sector further due to the price point of their vehicles. The reality is that, unless TSLA can sell a car that rivals a Honda or Toyota, doubling its market share is going to be a daunting task. It's just math. TSLA doesn't have a product for the masses, and while it may continue to grow in the luxury segment, the amount of growth that can be achieved is limited due to the pricing power of the consumer.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/442ffe151dd83bc524785857925f9797\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"227\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>www.goodcarbadcar.net</p><p><b>Tesla Isn't A Technology Company And Shouldn't Be Valued As One</b></p><p>The valuation rebuttal has always been that TSLA isn't an automobile company, rather, it's a technology company.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbc9ccb2cb8a0e7d40804db24e183214\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"341\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla</p><p>Page 23 ofTSLA's Q1 2022 slide deck from their earnings call is their statement of operations. Once again, 100% of TSLA's gross profit and net income are derived from automobiles. Energy generation and storage lose money as it generates $616 million in revenue while the cost of this revenue is $688 million. The same goes for Services and others, as this segment generates $1.279 billion in revenue while the cost of this revenue is $1.286 billion. This doesn't even factor in operating expenses.</p><p>TSLA manufacturers state of the art automobiles, but this doesn't classify them as a technology company, nor should they be classified as one. Since this is always the rebuttal and technology companies trade at larger earnings multiples, I will compare TSLA to Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL), and Meta Platforms (FB) and illustrate why TSLA is still drastically overvalued if the market was still to provide it with a tech multiple.</p><p>Prior to the comparisons, I want to frame the analysis by providing each company's market cap:</p><ul><li>AAPL $2.69 Trillion</li><li>MSFT $2.17 Trillion</li><li>GOOGL $1.62 Trillion</li><li>AMZN $1.28 Trillion</li><li>TSLA $986.92 Billion</li><li>FB $604.62 Billion</li></ul><p>I am going to start with growth because this is always the key metric bulls point out. Since the close of 2018, which is 3.25 fiscal years, TSLA has grown its revenue from $21.46 billion to $62.19 billion.</p><p>This is absolutely remarkable, but it doesn't place TSLA in the upper epsilon of technology companies. Over the same period, FB grew its revenue by $63.83 billion, which is more than what TSLA produced in the TTM. FB grew its revenue by more than what TSLA produces and generates just about double the revenue ($119.67 billion), yet TSLA has a larger market cap. For everyone who has used growth as their investment premise, FB having a market cap that's $382.30 less than TSLA nullifies that aspect of the bull thesis. AMZN's market cap is only $294.33 billion larger than TSLA, yet they generated $477.75 billion in revenue and grew their revenue by $341.76 billion in this period. Using revenue growth for TSLA doesn't support the valuation.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c0fbd4eb93f026c4575ee8f77f53e4b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>Next, I will turn to profits because, at the end of the day, businesses are in the business of making money. Once again, TSLA has done a fantastic job of monetizing its business and, in 3.25 short years, has gone from losing -$976 million to make $8.4 billion in the TTM for an increase of $9.38 billion. FB has produced $37.34 billion in profit in the TTM, and its net income grew by $15.23 billion over this period. Using growth doesn't support the valuation when FB has a market cap that's $382.30 less than TSLA and grew its profits in this period by almost double what TSLA has generated in the TTM.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c9716477607711ee0b6d4f77eb24c890\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"382\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>The new metric bulls are using in their thesis is TSLA's free cash flow (FCF). Once again, TSLA has done an excellent job, going from -$221 million of FCF in 2018 to $6.93 billion of FCF in the TTM. Many companies would love to grow their annual FCF by $7.15 billion over a 3.25-year period, and this should be applauded.</p><p>Let's look at FB once again, since TSLA's valuation isn't based on its core segment as an automobile manufacturer. FB has grown its FCF over the previous 3.25 years by $23.45 billion, more than 3x TSLA's growth, and has generated $39.81 billion of FCF in the TTM. FB generated roughly 5.75x more FCF than TSLA and grew its FCF by more than 3x what TSLA produces, yet FB has a market cap that's almost $400 billion less than TSLA. Growth within the financials does not support TSLA's valuation, which is a breath away from $1 trillion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/902a7074eda9e8f2f2765e0833423d2c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Steven Fiorillo, Seeking Alpha</p><p>Today you're paying a 113.81 P/E for TSLA. Paying a larger multiple for a company that's growing its earnings quickly is normal, but TSLA isn't growing by larger amounts than FB, and FB trades at a 16.66 P/E. I have seen TSLA bulls justify the P/E because of TSLA's growth factor, but this doesn't hold up when FB has grown by larger amounts from larger starting positions and has a P/E that's a fraction of TSLA. Look at AAPL, which is the largest company in the world. AAPL has grown its net income by $56.25 billion and its FCF by $52.3 billion over the past 3.25 years, and its P/E is 26.78. People are blindly paying any multiple the market places on TSLA.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/75168f6e39ced721cf0c53d78481a983\" tg-width=\"614\" tg-height=\"335\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>TSLA is trading at a 15.38 P/S. The justification for this multiple is difficult to defend while AMZN trades at a P/S of 11.31. AMZN's revenue grew by $341.76 billion over the past 3.25 years while TSLA grew their revenue by $40.73 billion. Instead of an absolute basis, looking at this from a percentage aspect, TSLA grew its revenue by 189.78%, while AMZN's grew by 251.32%. The P/S ratio is not a supporting valuation metric as TSLA is trading at a larger multiple than AMZN yet produced $301.03 billion less in revenue growth compared to AMZN. At the very least, TSLA should trade at a lower P/S multiple than AMZN considering their revenue growth was a fraction of AMZN's.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aad00a6c490808962705a1a2dae45cfe\" tg-width=\"608\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>TSLA has done an excellent job monetizing its revenue, delivering exceptional margins, and generating FCF. Now that TSLA is generating billions in FCF, it's been inserted into the bull thesis. FCF is a measure of profitability that excludes the non-cash expenses of the income statement and includes spending on equipment and assets as well as changes in working capital from the balance sheet. FCF could be the most underrated and most important financial metric to look at, as this is the pool of capital that companies can utilize to repay debt, pay dividends, buy back shares, make acquisitions, or reinvest in the business.</p><p>Every investment is the present value of all future cash flow. This is why investors look at the price to FCF valuation. Investors want to pay the cheapest multiple for a company's FCF. Today, you're paying 142.52x TSLA's FCF. Going back to the FCF section, TSLA grew its FCF by $7.15 billion over the past 3.25 years. FB generated $23.45 billion of FCF in this period, which is 3x the amount TSLA grew, yet FB is trading at a 15.19x multiple on price to FCF.</p><p>Why on earth would you want to pay 142.52x for TSLA's FCF when you could pay 15.19x for FB, which is growing their FCF by more than 3x the amount that TSLA is growing by? How about AAPL? AAPL grew its FCF by $52.3 billion and trades at a 25.4x price to FCF. If I exclude FB for a moment, should TSLA trade at a larger FCF multiple than GOOGL, which has grown its FCF by $46.15 billion over the past 3.25 years? My answer is no because there is no guarantee that TSLA will ever generate $46.15 billion in annual FCF, let alone the $68.99 billion in FCF that GOOGL generates.</p><p>So what is a fair price to FCF multiple for TSLA? I don't believe TSLA has earned the right to trade at the same multiples as the rest of big tech considering the levels of FCF they produce. If I stick with the methodology that FB is egregiously undervalued, then TSLA should trade above 15.19x its FCF but lower than the 23.42x multiple GOOGL trades at.</p><p>I don't want to be overly bearish, so I will place a 21x multiple on TSLA's FCF, which is more than fair considering big tech metrics. A 21x multiple on TSLA's FCF puts its market cap at $145.43 billion, which is -85.26% from its current market cap of $986.92 billion. It's just math, and if TSLA is going to be valued as a technology company, it needs to be compared to the technology companies with similar market caps.</p><p>At the very least, there isn't a single reason why TSLA's market cap is larger than FB's. There isn't a single metric that TSLA beats FB in. Based on FB's valuation, if TSLA traded at the same FCF multiple, it would have a market cap of $105.19 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b81a61d60d9ec098276569cc4a501da0\" tg-width=\"627\" tg-height=\"341\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>TSLA has a gross profit margin of 27.1% ($16.85b / $62.19b) and a profit margin of 13.51% ($8.4b / $62.19b). FB has a gross profit margin of 80.34% ($96.14b / $119.67b) and a profit margin of 31.2% ($37.34b / $119.67b). FB has much wider margins and is growing its revenue by larger amounts. This reinforces my methodology as to why TSLA is grossly overvalued. GOOGL has a gross profit margin of 56.93% ($153.9b / $270.33b) and a profit margin of 27.57% ($74.54b / $270.33b).</p><p>The chances are incredibly slim that TSLA can double its profit margin to be within striking distance of GOOGL's. TSLA should not trade at a larger FCF, P/E, or P/S multiple than FB or GOOGL. While the market would indicate that I am wrong today, eventually, the hype will wear off, and TSLA will trade at a realistic valuation.</p><p><b>TSLA's Future Catalysts Have A Long Way To Go Before Impacting Its Bottom Line</b></p><p>There are three main catalysts people discuss, which include insurance, robotaxis, and FSD.TSLA offers insurance using real-time driving behavior. This is currently available to all Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y owners. The catch is that it's only available in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia as of now.</p><p>TSLA uses a safety rating score to determine the monthly premium for its vehicles. At the largest premium of $130/mo, this would be $1,560 per year. If TSLA converted 100% of their U.S sales in 2021 as an insurance customer, which I think could be possible if TSLA insurance was available in every state, it would have generated $471.12 million in revenue.</p><p>We have no idea what the margins would have been, but if the margin was 50%, it would have been an additional $235.56 million in net income in 2021. While this is nothing to sneeze at, an additional $235.56 million in net income hardly moves the needle. This could be a $1 billion top-line revenue segment in the future, but with availability in only 7 states, insurance's $1 billion revenue mark is a long way away.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e86de6232b9abf7cee46a9607eb09741\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"326\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla</p><p>Next,FSD, for which TSLA has created two subscription models, a $99/mo price point and a $199/mo price point. The problem with FSD is that it doesn't make the vehicle fully autonomous, and you still need a driver to be attentive and alert. While I am not arguing that TSLA's FSD isn't leaps and bounds ahead of the competition, the problem is that it's not exactly a self-driving car.</p><p>The questions around legality and where you can use it pop into my head, and how many of TSLA's drivers opt for this upgrade. Until there is clear legislation and the technology advances to where vehicles can fully drive a person from point A to B while that person takes a nap or reads, I have a hard time believing enough TSLA owners will spend the extra $199/mo on FSD. If there is somewhere where TSLA produces the numbers about how many owners opt for this package, please let me know, and I will crunch the numbers.</p><p>Which Features Come With My Subscription?</p><blockquote>The FSD capability features you receive are based on your configuration and location. Not all features are available in all markets, and features are subject to change.Learn more about Autopilot and Full Self-Driving capability features.</blockquote><blockquote><i>Note: These features are designed to become more capable over time; however the currently enabled features do not make the vehicle autonomous. The currently enabled features require a fully attentive driver, who has their hands on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment.</i></blockquote><p>The last catalyst is Robotaxis which many have commented on in my articles before. We're so far off on Robotaxis that this can't be considered in TSLA's upcoming revenue. I would think major legislation would be needed for Robotaxis to exist, and there is no telling how many years away we are from this.</p><p>Also, what is the percentage of TSLA owners that would actually allow their vehicle to be used as a Robotaxi? Depending on what the profitability is, I can see people buying TSLAs to enroll them in this program, but, once again, we need to see the economics behind it. I know I am just one opinion, but I would never enroll one of my cars into a robotaxi program because I don't want other people that I don't know in my car. I would think there are many others that have similar viewpoints.</p><p>The real upcoming catalysts are future revenue growth and entering the Chinese market. In 2021 TSLA grew its YoY revenue by 70.67%, and their off to a great start after Q1 2022. Only time will tell what type of growth rate TSLA can maintain, but too many people are assuming that TSLA will obliterate the competition. Over the next several years, we could see TSLA's growth rate become significantly reduced as more luxury operators put EVs on the road.</p><p>At TSLA's current margins, they would need to increase their revenue by 444.55% to $276.47 billion to produce the same amount of net income ($37.34b) that FB produces today at their current 13.51% profit margin. Maybe TSLA can get there in the future, but why should TSLA be valued at almost $1 trillion today, considering not a single metric of theirs is similar to FB or GOOGL, and TSLA's growth across any of the sectors isn't larger than FB or GOOGL?</p><p><b>Tesla Continues To Dilute Shareholders, And Almost No Shareholders Care</b></p><p>Dilution kills shareholder value. Look, I am a shareholder of TSLA, and I hate that my shares continue to be diluted. These numbers are split-adjusted that I am using. Over the past decade,TSLA has diluted its shares by 80.93%. This is horrible compared to big tech, yet investors can't buy enough TSLA shares. TSLA finished 2012 with 572.6 million shares and, as of its last filing, had increased its outstanding shares to 1.036 billion shares.</p><p>This is the equivalent of me taking a pizza, and instead of giving you a slice, cutting another 6.5 slices, then giving you one. The pizza represents TSLA, the company, and they basically turned an 8-slice pie into a 14.5-slice pie, reducing shareholder's ownership and the amount of equity, revenue, and EPS our shares represent.</p><p>If you want to see what a true shepherd of shareholder value looks like, turn to AAPL. In 2012 AAPL had 26.3 billion shares outstanding. Over the past decade, AAPL has repurchased 10.09 billion shares, reducing its outstanding shares by 38.37%. Every quarter, AAPL is buying back shares and increasing the ownership its shares represent. TSLA, on the other hand, continues to dilute shareholders by increasing shares YOY.</p><p><b>I Could Be Completely Wrong, And Tesla Could Continue Growing At These Rates</b></p><p>TSLA's vehicle deliveries continue to outpace its growing production. YoY TSLA's deliveries increased by 68% in Q1, adding 125,171 delivered vehicles to its customers. TSLA just began Model Y deliveries from the Austin facility, and production at the Gigafactory in Berlin started in March of 2022. TSLA's Shanghai facility had strong production rates prior to the spike in COVID that resulted in temporary shutdowns. TSLA isn't just focusing on the U.S, they have Europe and China in their sights.</p><p>EVs accounted for 488,000 sales in the U.S for 2021, and the previous projection was that EVs would account for 670,000 units sold in 2022. Oil has hovered around $100 per barrel and could render the previous projections of 37% increased EV sales domestically for 2022 conservative. TSLA is in a prime position to capitalize on this trend. In 2021 TSLA vehicles accounted for 61.89% of EVs sold in the U.S (301,998 / 488,000).</p><p>Hypothetically, if the previous projection of 670,000 EV sales for 2022 is accurate and TSLA maintains its current margin, they would sell 414,628 vehicles throughout the U.S in 2022. If gas prices do alter the decision-making process when deciding between a combustible engine or an EV, then TSLA could continue surprising the market with QoQ earnings beats.</p><p>The U.S has a national goal of reaching 50% of domestic auto sales coming from EVs. In 2021, EVs accounted for 3.26% of total sales in the U.S auto market. Based on U.S auto sales in 2021, annual EV sales would need to grow by 6,989,403 to reach a 50% EV to combustible engine ratio. Hypothetically if U.S auto sales stayed flat but EVs reached 50% of the market in 2030 they would sell 7,477,403 vehicles. If TSLA's dominance in the EV sector was to drop from 61.89% to 15% due to increased competition, they would generate 1,121,610 in sales compared to 301,998 in 2021. When you add in Europe and China, TSLA certainly has the ability to become a top auto manufacturer by sales next decade.</p><p>Bulls aren't incorrect to be excited about TSLA. The world is moving toward EVs, and TSLA is the crème de la crème. As I said in the beginning, I am bullish about TSLA's future prospects, but I think the valuation today is overinflated. Nobody can predict the future, but I have no doubt that TSLA will continue to grow its sales YoY.</p><p>The question becomes, how much growth will they be able to achieve YoY? In 2021, TM generated $226.48 billion of revenue and, based on the future of EVs, TSLA certainly could achieve this level of revenue in the future. Based on TSLA's current 13.51% profit margin, if they achieved TM's level of revenue, they would generate $30.59 billion of net income, which would definitely make today's valuation look more realistic.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93c9176fa9bebc2c940e038cafd23229\" tg-width=\"603\" tg-height=\"631\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Tesla</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>You're probably wondering how I can be a shareholder and be a bear on TSLA's valuation at the same time. It's simple; my wife bought shares of TSLA, which makes me a shareholder. My stance has always been bullish on the company and bearish on the valuation. What Elon Musk and the team at TSLA has accomplished is astonishing, and they deserve nothing but respect.</p><p>Keep in mind a company and a company's stock are two separate things. TSLA continues to dilute shareholders, and they and the market are valuing TSLA as if it's FB or GOOGL. TSLA is not a technology company; it's an automobile company, as the automotive segments drive 100% of its gross revenue and net income.</p><p>TSLA is trading at a P/E of 113.81, a P/S of 15.38, and a 142.52x multiple on its FCF. The numbers are drastically inflated as TSLA has no business trading at a larger P/S multiple than AMZN, which trades at 11.31 P/S when it has grown its revenue by $341.76 billion over the previous 3.25 years compared to TSLA's $40.73 billion of revenue growth. TSLA has generated $6.93 billion in FCF over the TTM, while Mr. Market has placed a 142.52x multiple on TSLA due to $7.15 billion FCF growth over the past 3.25 years. FB trades at a 15.19x FCF multiple while growing FCF by $23.45 billion over this period which is more than 3x what TSLA has generated in the TTM.</p><p>With FB trading at 15.19x FCF, GOOGL at 23.42x FCF, and AAPL at 25.4x FCF, it's hard to justify any number above 20x for TSLA. I think a 21x FCF multiple is generous and that places TSLA at a market cap of $145.43 billion, which is -85.26% from its current market cap of $986.92 billion.</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>Tesla: Overvalued By 85.26% And Not A Technology Company</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\">\nTesla: Overvalued By 85.26% And Not A Technology Company\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-08 11:30 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507535-tesla-overvalued-by-85-26-percent-and-not-a-technology-company><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryMake no mistake, Tesla is a phenomenal company that has accomplished the unthinkable as it broke through extreme barriers of entry to disrupt the auto industry.Just because Tesla is a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507535-tesla-overvalued-by-85-26-percent-and-not-a-technology-company\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507535-tesla-overvalued-by-85-26-percent-and-not-a-technology-company","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1131831539","content_text":"SummaryMake no mistake, Tesla is a phenomenal company that has accomplished the unthinkable as it broke through extreme barriers of entry to disrupt the auto industry.Just because Tesla is a successful company that is causing automotive titans to change from combustible engines to EVs doesn't mean Tesla's stock is a good investment today.100% of gross profit and net income is generated from the automotive sector as Tesla's other businesses lose money, making them an automobile manufacturing company, not a technology company.I compared Tesla's metrics to the auto industry and big tech and the results are the same, Tesla's valuation is egregious.It's rare to find companies that have cult-like followings with loyalists willing to pay any price for its stock. The debate regarding Tesla, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:TSLA) valuation continues to be a topic of conversation between the bulls and the bears. Oneside argues that TSLA's financial growth and future prospects, including FSD, insurance, and robotaxis, justify the current $902.12 billion valuations, while others argue that the current financials and cult-like following have led to a massive overvaluation in TSLA's stock.I tip my hat to Elon Musk, as his accomplishments are second to none. When others called him crazy, Mr. Musk chose one of the hardest industries to compete in, started TSLA from the ground up, went to battle against the auto manufacturers, and succeeded. TSLA is one of the rare success stories that has truly shaped an industry, and the barriers of entry that were overcome are astonishing. TSLA didn't have the capital, manufacturing, credibility, or the infrastructure that its competitors did, yet they found a way to succeed. If the odds weren't enough which TSLA faced, they accomplished their goals without a combustible engine and pioneered an entirely new sector within the automotive industry.Just because TSLA is a great company, it doesn't mean TSLA has a great stock, or it isn't overvalued. I am not bearish on TSLA the company because I believe they still have a long runway of growth ahead of them, but I am bearish on the valuation. Prior to leaving a comment on why I am wrong, please read the article and think about the metrics I am citing; then, I will happily discuss any viewpoints about the analysis.Tesla Vs. The World In The Automotive SectorIt feels like TSLA vs. the world whenever TSLA is discussed. Discussing who makes a better automobile is a matter of opinion, and everyone is correct because it's their opinion. If person A thinks TSLA makes the best car and person B thinks Mercedes Benz makes the best car, they are both correct. Debating over this is pointless, so let's look at the raw numbers.TSLA has a larger market cap than the combination ofToyota(TM),Volkswagen(OTCPK:VWAGY),Daimler(OTCPK:DDAIF),BMW(OTCPK:BMWYY),General Motors(GM),Ford(F),Honda(HMC),Ferrari(RACE),Nissan(OTCPK:NSANY),Subaru(OTCPK:FUJHY),Volvo(OTCPK:VOLAF), andMazda(OTCPK:MZDAY). TSLA's market cap is currently $986.92 billion, while the combination of these 12 companies is $777.41 billion.Steven FiorilloThe P/S ratio is often cited to justify the valuation. The combination of TM, VWAGY, DDAIF, BMWYY, GM, F, HMC, RACE, NSANY, FUJHY, VOLAF, and MZDAY has generated $1.38 trillion in revenue over the TTM, putting their P/S at 0.56, while TSLA has generated $62.19 billion in revenue and has a 15.87 P/S.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaAs a combined entity, these 12 companies have generated $118.29 billion in net income, while TSLA has produced $8.4 billion.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaTSLA is a great company, but its current valuation has become overly inflated. TSLA's market cap is $209.52 billion larger than these 12 auto manufacturers, yet the combination of the 12 auto manufacturers generates $1.32 trillion more in revenue and $109.89 billion more in net income.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaLooking at the market caps, one would assume that TSLA has a dominant majority over its competitors in auto sales within the U.S. According to the2021 data, TSLA sold 2.02% of all vehicles in the U.S. TSLA's market cap reflects a level of dominance that is non-existent.Realistically, TSLA will have a hard time disrupting the sector further due to the price point of their vehicles. The reality is that, unless TSLA can sell a car that rivals a Honda or Toyota, doubling its market share is going to be a daunting task. It's just math. TSLA doesn't have a product for the masses, and while it may continue to grow in the luxury segment, the amount of growth that can be achieved is limited due to the pricing power of the consumer.www.goodcarbadcar.netTesla Isn't A Technology Company And Shouldn't Be Valued As OneThe valuation rebuttal has always been that TSLA isn't an automobile company, rather, it's a technology company.TeslaPage 23 ofTSLA's Q1 2022 slide deck from their earnings call is their statement of operations. Once again, 100% of TSLA's gross profit and net income are derived from automobiles. Energy generation and storage lose money as it generates $616 million in revenue while the cost of this revenue is $688 million. The same goes for Services and others, as this segment generates $1.279 billion in revenue while the cost of this revenue is $1.286 billion. This doesn't even factor in operating expenses.TSLA manufacturers state of the art automobiles, but this doesn't classify them as a technology company, nor should they be classified as one. Since this is always the rebuttal and technology companies trade at larger earnings multiples, I will compare TSLA to Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL), and Meta Platforms (FB) and illustrate why TSLA is still drastically overvalued if the market was still to provide it with a tech multiple.Prior to the comparisons, I want to frame the analysis by providing each company's market cap:AAPL $2.69 TrillionMSFT $2.17 TrillionGOOGL $1.62 TrillionAMZN $1.28 TrillionTSLA $986.92 BillionFB $604.62 BillionI am going to start with growth because this is always the key metric bulls point out. Since the close of 2018, which is 3.25 fiscal years, TSLA has grown its revenue from $21.46 billion to $62.19 billion.This is absolutely remarkable, but it doesn't place TSLA in the upper epsilon of technology companies. Over the same period, FB grew its revenue by $63.83 billion, which is more than what TSLA produced in the TTM. FB grew its revenue by more than what TSLA produces and generates just about double the revenue ($119.67 billion), yet TSLA has a larger market cap. For everyone who has used growth as their investment premise, FB having a market cap that's $382.30 less than TSLA nullifies that aspect of the bull thesis. AMZN's market cap is only $294.33 billion larger than TSLA, yet they generated $477.75 billion in revenue and grew their revenue by $341.76 billion in this period. Using revenue growth for TSLA doesn't support the valuation.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaNext, I will turn to profits because, at the end of the day, businesses are in the business of making money. Once again, TSLA has done a fantastic job of monetizing its business and, in 3.25 short years, has gone from losing -$976 million to make $8.4 billion in the TTM for an increase of $9.38 billion. FB has produced $37.34 billion in profit in the TTM, and its net income grew by $15.23 billion over this period. Using growth doesn't support the valuation when FB has a market cap that's $382.30 less than TSLA and grew its profits in this period by almost double what TSLA has generated in the TTM.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaThe new metric bulls are using in their thesis is TSLA's free cash flow (FCF). Once again, TSLA has done an excellent job, going from -$221 million of FCF in 2018 to $6.93 billion of FCF in the TTM. Many companies would love to grow their annual FCF by $7.15 billion over a 3.25-year period, and this should be applauded.Let's look at FB once again, since TSLA's valuation isn't based on its core segment as an automobile manufacturer. FB has grown its FCF over the previous 3.25 years by $23.45 billion, more than 3x TSLA's growth, and has generated $39.81 billion of FCF in the TTM. FB generated roughly 5.75x more FCF than TSLA and grew its FCF by more than 3x what TSLA produces, yet FB has a market cap that's almost $400 billion less than TSLA. Growth within the financials does not support TSLA's valuation, which is a breath away from $1 trillion.Steven Fiorillo, Seeking AlphaToday you're paying a 113.81 P/E for TSLA. Paying a larger multiple for a company that's growing its earnings quickly is normal, but TSLA isn't growing by larger amounts than FB, and FB trades at a 16.66 P/E. I have seen TSLA bulls justify the P/E because of TSLA's growth factor, but this doesn't hold up when FB has grown by larger amounts from larger starting positions and has a P/E that's a fraction of TSLA. Look at AAPL, which is the largest company in the world. AAPL has grown its net income by $56.25 billion and its FCF by $52.3 billion over the past 3.25 years, and its P/E is 26.78. People are blindly paying any multiple the market places on TSLA.TSLA is trading at a 15.38 P/S. The justification for this multiple is difficult to defend while AMZN trades at a P/S of 11.31. AMZN's revenue grew by $341.76 billion over the past 3.25 years while TSLA grew their revenue by $40.73 billion. Instead of an absolute basis, looking at this from a percentage aspect, TSLA grew its revenue by 189.78%, while AMZN's grew by 251.32%. The P/S ratio is not a supporting valuation metric as TSLA is trading at a larger multiple than AMZN yet produced $301.03 billion less in revenue growth compared to AMZN. At the very least, TSLA should trade at a lower P/S multiple than AMZN considering their revenue growth was a fraction of AMZN's.TSLA has done an excellent job monetizing its revenue, delivering exceptional margins, and generating FCF. Now that TSLA is generating billions in FCF, it's been inserted into the bull thesis. FCF is a measure of profitability that excludes the non-cash expenses of the income statement and includes spending on equipment and assets as well as changes in working capital from the balance sheet. FCF could be the most underrated and most important financial metric to look at, as this is the pool of capital that companies can utilize to repay debt, pay dividends, buy back shares, make acquisitions, or reinvest in the business.Every investment is the present value of all future cash flow. This is why investors look at the price to FCF valuation. Investors want to pay the cheapest multiple for a company's FCF. Today, you're paying 142.52x TSLA's FCF. Going back to the FCF section, TSLA grew its FCF by $7.15 billion over the past 3.25 years. FB generated $23.45 billion of FCF in this period, which is 3x the amount TSLA grew, yet FB is trading at a 15.19x multiple on price to FCF.Why on earth would you want to pay 142.52x for TSLA's FCF when you could pay 15.19x for FB, which is growing their FCF by more than 3x the amount that TSLA is growing by? How about AAPL? AAPL grew its FCF by $52.3 billion and trades at a 25.4x price to FCF. If I exclude FB for a moment, should TSLA trade at a larger FCF multiple than GOOGL, which has grown its FCF by $46.15 billion over the past 3.25 years? My answer is no because there is no guarantee that TSLA will ever generate $46.15 billion in annual FCF, let alone the $68.99 billion in FCF that GOOGL generates.So what is a fair price to FCF multiple for TSLA? I don't believe TSLA has earned the right to trade at the same multiples as the rest of big tech considering the levels of FCF they produce. If I stick with the methodology that FB is egregiously undervalued, then TSLA should trade above 15.19x its FCF but lower than the 23.42x multiple GOOGL trades at.I don't want to be overly bearish, so I will place a 21x multiple on TSLA's FCF, which is more than fair considering big tech metrics. A 21x multiple on TSLA's FCF puts its market cap at $145.43 billion, which is -85.26% from its current market cap of $986.92 billion. It's just math, and if TSLA is going to be valued as a technology company, it needs to be compared to the technology companies with similar market caps.At the very least, there isn't a single reason why TSLA's market cap is larger than FB's. There isn't a single metric that TSLA beats FB in. Based on FB's valuation, if TSLA traded at the same FCF multiple, it would have a market cap of $105.19 billion.TSLA has a gross profit margin of 27.1% ($16.85b / $62.19b) and a profit margin of 13.51% ($8.4b / $62.19b). FB has a gross profit margin of 80.34% ($96.14b / $119.67b) and a profit margin of 31.2% ($37.34b / $119.67b). FB has much wider margins and is growing its revenue by larger amounts. This reinforces my methodology as to why TSLA is grossly overvalued. GOOGL has a gross profit margin of 56.93% ($153.9b / $270.33b) and a profit margin of 27.57% ($74.54b / $270.33b).The chances are incredibly slim that TSLA can double its profit margin to be within striking distance of GOOGL's. TSLA should not trade at a larger FCF, P/E, or P/S multiple than FB or GOOGL. While the market would indicate that I am wrong today, eventually, the hype will wear off, and TSLA will trade at a realistic valuation.TSLA's Future Catalysts Have A Long Way To Go Before Impacting Its Bottom LineThere are three main catalysts people discuss, which include insurance, robotaxis, and FSD.TSLA offers insurance using real-time driving behavior. This is currently available to all Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y owners. The catch is that it's only available in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia as of now.TSLA uses a safety rating score to determine the monthly premium for its vehicles. At the largest premium of $130/mo, this would be $1,560 per year. If TSLA converted 100% of their U.S sales in 2021 as an insurance customer, which I think could be possible if TSLA insurance was available in every state, it would have generated $471.12 million in revenue.We have no idea what the margins would have been, but if the margin was 50%, it would have been an additional $235.56 million in net income in 2021. While this is nothing to sneeze at, an additional $235.56 million in net income hardly moves the needle. This could be a $1 billion top-line revenue segment in the future, but with availability in only 7 states, insurance's $1 billion revenue mark is a long way away.TeslaNext,FSD, for which TSLA has created two subscription models, a $99/mo price point and a $199/mo price point. The problem with FSD is that it doesn't make the vehicle fully autonomous, and you still need a driver to be attentive and alert. While I am not arguing that TSLA's FSD isn't leaps and bounds ahead of the competition, the problem is that it's not exactly a self-driving car.The questions around legality and where you can use it pop into my head, and how many of TSLA's drivers opt for this upgrade. Until there is clear legislation and the technology advances to where vehicles can fully drive a person from point A to B while that person takes a nap or reads, I have a hard time believing enough TSLA owners will spend the extra $199/mo on FSD. If there is somewhere where TSLA produces the numbers about how many owners opt for this package, please let me know, and I will crunch the numbers.Which Features Come With My Subscription?The FSD capability features you receive are based on your configuration and location. Not all features are available in all markets, and features are subject to change.Learn more about Autopilot and Full Self-Driving capability features.Note: These features are designed to become more capable over time; however the currently enabled features do not make the vehicle autonomous. The currently enabled features require a fully attentive driver, who has their hands on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment.The last catalyst is Robotaxis which many have commented on in my articles before. We're so far off on Robotaxis that this can't be considered in TSLA's upcoming revenue. I would think major legislation would be needed for Robotaxis to exist, and there is no telling how many years away we are from this.Also, what is the percentage of TSLA owners that would actually allow their vehicle to be used as a Robotaxi? Depending on what the profitability is, I can see people buying TSLAs to enroll them in this program, but, once again, we need to see the economics behind it. I know I am just one opinion, but I would never enroll one of my cars into a robotaxi program because I don't want other people that I don't know in my car. I would think there are many others that have similar viewpoints.The real upcoming catalysts are future revenue growth and entering the Chinese market. In 2021 TSLA grew its YoY revenue by 70.67%, and their off to a great start after Q1 2022. Only time will tell what type of growth rate TSLA can maintain, but too many people are assuming that TSLA will obliterate the competition. Over the next several years, we could see TSLA's growth rate become significantly reduced as more luxury operators put EVs on the road.At TSLA's current margins, they would need to increase their revenue by 444.55% to $276.47 billion to produce the same amount of net income ($37.34b) that FB produces today at their current 13.51% profit margin. Maybe TSLA can get there in the future, but why should TSLA be valued at almost $1 trillion today, considering not a single metric of theirs is similar to FB or GOOGL, and TSLA's growth across any of the sectors isn't larger than FB or GOOGL?Tesla Continues To Dilute Shareholders, And Almost No Shareholders CareDilution kills shareholder value. Look, I am a shareholder of TSLA, and I hate that my shares continue to be diluted. These numbers are split-adjusted that I am using. Over the past decade,TSLA has diluted its shares by 80.93%. This is horrible compared to big tech, yet investors can't buy enough TSLA shares. TSLA finished 2012 with 572.6 million shares and, as of its last filing, had increased its outstanding shares to 1.036 billion shares.This is the equivalent of me taking a pizza, and instead of giving you a slice, cutting another 6.5 slices, then giving you one. The pizza represents TSLA, the company, and they basically turned an 8-slice pie into a 14.5-slice pie, reducing shareholder's ownership and the amount of equity, revenue, and EPS our shares represent.If you want to see what a true shepherd of shareholder value looks like, turn to AAPL. In 2012 AAPL had 26.3 billion shares outstanding. Over the past decade, AAPL has repurchased 10.09 billion shares, reducing its outstanding shares by 38.37%. Every quarter, AAPL is buying back shares and increasing the ownership its shares represent. TSLA, on the other hand, continues to dilute shareholders by increasing shares YOY.I Could Be Completely Wrong, And Tesla Could Continue Growing At These RatesTSLA's vehicle deliveries continue to outpace its growing production. YoY TSLA's deliveries increased by 68% in Q1, adding 125,171 delivered vehicles to its customers. TSLA just began Model Y deliveries from the Austin facility, and production at the Gigafactory in Berlin started in March of 2022. TSLA's Shanghai facility had strong production rates prior to the spike in COVID that resulted in temporary shutdowns. TSLA isn't just focusing on the U.S, they have Europe and China in their sights.EVs accounted for 488,000 sales in the U.S for 2021, and the previous projection was that EVs would account for 670,000 units sold in 2022. Oil has hovered around $100 per barrel and could render the previous projections of 37% increased EV sales domestically for 2022 conservative. TSLA is in a prime position to capitalize on this trend. In 2021 TSLA vehicles accounted for 61.89% of EVs sold in the U.S (301,998 / 488,000).Hypothetically, if the previous projection of 670,000 EV sales for 2022 is accurate and TSLA maintains its current margin, they would sell 414,628 vehicles throughout the U.S in 2022. If gas prices do alter the decision-making process when deciding between a combustible engine or an EV, then TSLA could continue surprising the market with QoQ earnings beats.The U.S has a national goal of reaching 50% of domestic auto sales coming from EVs. In 2021, EVs accounted for 3.26% of total sales in the U.S auto market. Based on U.S auto sales in 2021, annual EV sales would need to grow by 6,989,403 to reach a 50% EV to combustible engine ratio. Hypothetically if U.S auto sales stayed flat but EVs reached 50% of the market in 2030 they would sell 7,477,403 vehicles. If TSLA's dominance in the EV sector was to drop from 61.89% to 15% due to increased competition, they would generate 1,121,610 in sales compared to 301,998 in 2021. When you add in Europe and China, TSLA certainly has the ability to become a top auto manufacturer by sales next decade.Bulls aren't incorrect to be excited about TSLA. The world is moving toward EVs, and TSLA is the crème de la crème. As I said in the beginning, I am bullish about TSLA's future prospects, but I think the valuation today is overinflated. Nobody can predict the future, but I have no doubt that TSLA will continue to grow its sales YoY.The question becomes, how much growth will they be able to achieve YoY? In 2021, TM generated $226.48 billion of revenue and, based on the future of EVs, TSLA certainly could achieve this level of revenue in the future. Based on TSLA's current 13.51% profit margin, if they achieved TM's level of revenue, they would generate $30.59 billion of net income, which would definitely make today's valuation look more realistic.TeslaConclusionYou're probably wondering how I can be a shareholder and be a bear on TSLA's valuation at the same time. It's simple; my wife bought shares of TSLA, which makes me a shareholder. My stance has always been bullish on the company and bearish on the valuation. What Elon Musk and the team at TSLA has accomplished is astonishing, and they deserve nothing but respect.Keep in mind a company and a company's stock are two separate things. TSLA continues to dilute shareholders, and they and the market are valuing TSLA as if it's FB or GOOGL. TSLA is not a technology company; it's an automobile company, as the automotive segments drive 100% of its gross revenue and net income.TSLA is trading at a P/E of 113.81, a P/S of 15.38, and a 142.52x multiple on its FCF. The numbers are drastically inflated as TSLA has no business trading at a larger P/S multiple than AMZN, which trades at 11.31 P/S when it has grown its revenue by $341.76 billion over the previous 3.25 years compared to TSLA's $40.73 billion of revenue growth. TSLA has generated $6.93 billion in FCF over the TTM, while Mr. Market has placed a 142.52x multiple on TSLA due to $7.15 billion FCF growth over the past 3.25 years. FB trades at a 15.19x FCF multiple while growing FCF by $23.45 billion over this period which is more than 3x what TSLA has generated in the TTM.With FB trading at 15.19x FCF, GOOGL at 23.42x FCF, and AAPL at 25.4x FCF, it's hard to justify any number above 20x for TSLA. I think a 21x FCF multiple is generous and that places TSLA at a market cap of $145.43 billion, which is -85.26% from its current market cap of $986.92 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":441,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9063462025,"gmtCreate":1651509212108,"gmtModify":1676534918413,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Junk","listText":"Junk","text":"Junk","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9063462025","repostId":"2232398712","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2232398712","pubTimestamp":1651502375,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2232398712?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-02 22:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"1 Simple Move That Can Get You Through Any Stock Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2232398712","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The market is volatile right now.

And like many growth-oriented companies, it has never paid a dividend or considered paying a dividend.</p><p>But the reality is that the company isn't growing as quickly as it did. And there's reason to believe it may never get back to the good ol' days of growing revenue by over 200% in five years -- as it did from 2016 through 2021.</p><p>Here's why Netflix should consider implementing a dividend and why that move could be great for investors.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62a2fbac505f0c4a91d52bc59fe9aac3\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1236\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p><p><b>Pricing pressure</b></p><p>Netflix deserves credit for revolutionizing home entertainment -- first through on-demand DVDs delivered to your door and then through streaming. Unfortunately for Netflix, other companies have come to realize how attractive a subscription-based streaming model is. And that has made the streaming service industry more crowded than ever.</p><p>In the past, Netflix generated recurring revenue streams from existing subscribers and fueled its growth by obtaining new subscribers and raising prices. According to data byThe Verge, Netflix's January 2022 price bump represents a 40% increase compared to October 2017 for its premium price point and its standard option. Premium is now $19.99 per month and standard is $15.49. Meanwhile, the basic plan is $9.99 per month, representing a 25% increase.</p><p>All this is to say that Netflix had already raised prices by a considerable amount<i>before</i>inflation started accelerating, which leaves less room to raise prices later this year or even next year.</p><p>The big question looming over Netflix is whether it can get back to a 20% or preferably 30%-plus annual revenue growth rate. Given the fact that Netflix lost subscribers in Q1 after raising prices in January, it does appear that there is a limit to how much Netflix can pressure customers before some of them decide the service is just too expensive.</p><p>In many ways, Netflix stock deserved to get torched. Not only has the streaming industry become saturated, but demand for consumers' attention is also high. Netflix isn't just competing with other streaming services -- it's competing with any company whose products and services are used by consumers for entertainment. That includes YouTube (part of <b>Alphabet</b>), video games, sports, and even social media.</p><p>Netflix retains and gains subscribers by producing new content that they enjoy.

And like many growth-oriented companies, it has never paid a dividend or considered paying a dividend.But the reality is that the company isn't growing as quickly as it did. And there's reason to believe it may never get back to the good ol' days of growing revenue by over 200% in five years -- as it did from 2016 through 2021.Here's why Netflix should consider implementing a dividend and why that move could be great for investors.IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.Pricing pressureNetflix deserves credit for revolutionizing home entertainment -- first through on-demand DVDs delivered to your door and then through streaming. Unfortunately for Netflix, other companies have come to realize how attractive a subscription-based streaming model is. And that has made the streaming service industry more crowded than ever.In the past, Netflix generated recurring revenue streams from existing subscribers and fueled its growth by obtaining new subscribers and raising prices. According to data byThe Verge, Netflix's January 2022 price bump represents a 40% increase compared to October 2017 for its premium price point and its standard option. Premium is now $19.99 per month and standard is $15.49. Meanwhile, the basic plan is $9.99 per month, representing a 25% increase.All this is to say that Netflix had already raised prices by a considerable amountbeforeinflation started accelerating, which leaves less room to raise prices later this year or even next year.The big question looming over Netflix is whether it can get back to a 20% or preferably 30%-plus annual revenue growth rate. Given the fact that Netflix lost subscribers in Q1 after raising prices in January, it does appear that there is a limit to how much Netflix can pressure customers before some of them decide the service is just too expensive.In many ways, Netflix stock deserved to get torched. Not only has the streaming industry become saturated, but demand for consumers' attention is also high. Netflix isn't just competing with other streaming services -- it's competing with any company whose products and services are used by consumers for entertainment. That includes YouTube (part of Alphabet), video games, sports, and even social media.Netflix retains and gains subscribers by producing new content that they enjoy. In this vein, it doesn't matter if consumers are watching a rival streaming service or are simply using Meta Platforms' Instagram instead of watching Netflix.The calculation can all be boiled down to one simple point -- are subscribers watching Netflix more or less? If they are watching Netflix less, for whatever reason, that is bad for the company. The risk going forward is that folks will have more home entertainment options outside of Netflix, which will pressure its ability to gain and retain subscribers and raise prices.The way outGiven the state of the streaming industry and where it is going from here, it seems that Netflix's domination days are over.

History has consistently shown that, due to innovation and execution, today's largest publicly traded companies are unlikely to retain their pedestal position for a significant length of time.</p><p>As an example, just one of the 10 largest publicly traded companies in 1999 is still in the top 10 (<b>Microsoft</b>). Meanwhile, previous giants like <b>Intel</b>, <b>Nokia</b>, and <b>American International Group</b> have fallen far down the pecking order, in terms of market cap.</p><p>Chances are that electric vehicle (EV) kingpin <b>Tesla</b> will also be dethroned as one of the world's largest publicly traded companies.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F675971%2Fsearching-for-stocks-with-magnifying-glass-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"462\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Tesla is the fifth-largest publicly traded stock... for now</h2><p>As of the closing bell last week, a single share of Tesla would set an investor back more than $1,000, which equates to a hearty market cap of $1.04 trillion. That makes Tesla the fifth-largest publicly traded company in the U.S., and only the sixth to ever reach the $1 trillion valuation plateau.</p><p>There are certainly valid reasons why Tesla's shares have skyrocketed over the past decade. For instance, it's the first automaker in over five decades that built itself from the ground up and reached mass production. In the first quarter, Tesla produced more than 305,000 EVs and delivered just north of 310,000 EVs. That puts it on track to easily surpass 1 million EVs produced and delivered in 2022.</p><p>To add to this point, Tesla's first-quarter operating results featured its largest quarterly profit in history. Despite supply chain challenges, Tesla generated $3.32 billion in net income in Q1 2022, which was a 658% improvement from the prior-year period.</p><p>But there are also plenty of reasons to believe Tesla's market cap, which is equal to most auto stocks on a <i>combined basis</i>, is due for a reversion. Although the company has been riding competitive advantages with regard to production, power, range, and battery capacity, competition is beginning to catch up. For instance, a handful of EVs offer better range than Tesla's flagship sedans (the Model 3 and Model S).</p><p>Another point of concern is CEO Elon Musk. While there's no question he's a visionary, he's also an unwanted distraction at times. Musk has a habit of overpromising and under-delivering when it comes to the launch of new technology or new EVs, and his side projects arguably get in the way of overseeing Tesla's operations.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F675971%2F17171920167_b5afce5167_k.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Berkshire Hathaway CEO, Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p><h2>These stocks could surpass Tesla over the next eight years</h2><p>In other words, there's a very real chance Tesla's valuation could deflate by 2030 and other publicly traded stocks could surpass it. What follows are three stocks that could be worth more than Tesla by the turn of the decade.</p><h2>The logical choice: Berkshire Hathaway</h2><p>The no-brainer choice to surpass Tesla in market cap by (or well before) 2030 is Warren Buffett's conglomerate, <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>. Berkshire would need to gain about $300 billion in market cap to catch Tesla, as of this past weekend.</p><p>Historically, Buffett's company has been virtually unstoppable. Even though Berkshire Hathaway doesn't increase in value every year, Buffett has overseen an average annual return of better than 20% since taking the helm as CEO in 1965. Put another way, shareholders have doubled their money holding Berkshire Hathaway stock, on average, every 3.6 years for close to six decades.</p><p>One of the key reasons Berkshire Hathaway is such a success -- aside from being led by Warren Buffett -- is due to its investment portfolio being packed with cyclical companies. Cyclical businesses perform well when the U.S. and global economy are expanding and struggle when recessions arise. The thing is, recessions typically last for a few months or a couple of quarters, whereas economic expansions are often measured in years. Buffett and his investing team are playing a simple numbers game where patience is the not-so-secret ingredient to wealth-building.</p><p>Berkshire Hathaway is also raking in passive income. This year alone, Buffett's company is on pace to collect well north of $5 billion in dividend income. Over $4 billion in payouts will come from just a half-dozen holdings. This dividend income allows Berkshire to thrive in virtually any economic environment.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F675971%2Fcredit-card-credit-score-debt-consumption-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"531\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>If everything went just right: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></h2><p>A second well-known stock that has all the tools necessary to surpass Tesla's market cap, but would need things to continue to go its way, is payment processor <b>Visa</b>. To leapfrog Tesla, Visa must make up a nearly $590 billion valuation gap.</p><p>Arguably the biggest challenge is going to be the emergence of blockchain technology, as well as the rise of digital payment platforms. Blockchain offers a way to circumvent banks and financial institutions to process payments quickly and cheaply. Visa is a payment processor on traditional merchant networks and will need payments to continue to flow through those channels if it's to have any chance of surpassing Tesla's market cap.</p><p>Similar to Berkshire Hathaway, Visa benefits from the cyclical nature of financial stocks. Since economic expansions last disproportionately longer than contractions and recessions, Visa spends most of its time benefiting from an increase in consumer and enterprise spending. In the U.S., the largest market for consumption in the world, Visa holds a 54% share of credit card network purchase volume, as of 2020.</p><p>Additionally, Visa acts purely as a payment processor and not a lender. Although lending would generate net interest income and fee revenue, it would also expose Visa to loan delinquencies during recessions. Since there's no loan exposure, there's no need for the company to set aside capital to cover possible losses during recessions. This is a big reason why Visa's profit margin is consistently above 50%.</p><p>With the majority of global transactions still being conducted in cash, Visa's growth runway remains robust.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F675971%2Fsemiconductor-chip-equipment-5g-electronics-fab-wafer-manufacturing-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>The long shot: Broadcom</h2><p>Lastly, the long shot of the group to surpass Tesla's market cap by 2030 is semiconductor solutions company <b>Broadcom</b>. With a market cap of $240 billion, Broadcom would need to more than quadruple just to catch Tesla at its current valuation.</p><p>The reason I've classified Broadcom as a "long shot" is the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry. Even though periods of expansion handily outlast contractions and recessions, Wall Street has typically kept a low ceiling on price-to-earnings multiples for large chipmakers.</p><p>On the other hand, there are multiple avenues for Broadcom to generate high-single-digit to low-double-digit annual sales growth throughout the decade. Currently, it generates the bulk of its revenue from wireless chips and assorted solutions used in next-generation smartphones. Telecom companies upgrading wireless infrastructure to 5G should lead to a multiyear device replacement cycle that keeps demand and pricing power high for Broadcom's smartphone solutions.</p><p>However, it's the company's ancillary opportunities that could hold the key to surpassing Tesla. For example, Broadcom supplies connectivity and access chips used in data centers. With businesses shifting their data and that of their clients into the cloud at an accelerated pace in the wake of the pandemic, data center demand shouldn't slow anytime soon. Broadcom supplies chips used in next-gen vehicles, too.</p><p>A final factor working in Broadcom's favor is its historically high backlog of $14.9 billion. This is a company that's booking production well into 2023, according to CEO Hock Tan.

History has consistently shown that, due to innovation and execution, today's largest publicly traded companies are unlikely to retain their pedestal position for a significant length of time.As an example, just one of the 10 largest publicly traded companies in 1999 is still in the top 10 (Microsoft). Meanwhile, previous giants like Intel, Nokia, and American International Group have fallen far down the pecking order, in terms of market cap.Chances are that electric vehicle (EV) kingpin Tesla will also be dethroned as one of the world's largest publicly traded companies.Image source: Getty Images.Tesla is the fifth-largest publicly traded stock... for nowAs of the closing bell last week, a single share of Tesla would set an investor back more than $1,000, which equates to a hearty market cap of $1.04 trillion. That makes Tesla the fifth-largest publicly traded company in the U.S., and only the sixth to ever reach the $1 trillion valuation plateau.There are certainly valid reasons why Tesla's shares have skyrocketed over the past decade. For instance, it's the first automaker in over five decades that built itself from the ground up and reached mass production. In the first quarter, Tesla produced more than 305,000 EVs and delivered just north of 310,000 EVs. That puts it on track to easily surpass 1 million EVs produced and delivered in 2022.To add to this point, Tesla's first-quarter operating results featured its largest quarterly profit in history. Despite supply chain challenges, Tesla generated $3.32 billion in net income in Q1 2022, which was a 658% improvement from the prior-year period.But there are also plenty of reasons to believe Tesla's market cap, which is equal to most auto stocks on a combined basis, is due for a reversion. Although the company has been riding competitive advantages with regard to production, power, range, and battery capacity, competition is beginning to catch up. For instance, a handful of EVs offer better range than Tesla's flagship sedans (the Model 3 and Model S).Another point of concern is CEO Elon Musk. While there's no question he's a visionary, he's also an unwanted distraction at times. Musk has a habit of overpromising and under-delivering when it comes to the launch of new technology or new EVs, and his side projects arguably get in the way of overseeing Tesla's operations.Berkshire Hathaway CEO, Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.These stocks could surpass Tesla over the next eight yearsIn other words, there's a very real chance Tesla's valuation could deflate by 2030 and other publicly traded stocks could surpass it. What follows are three stocks that could be worth more than Tesla by the turn of the decade.The logical choice: Berkshire HathawayThe no-brainer choice to surpass Tesla in market cap by (or well before) 2030 is Warren Buffett's conglomerate, Berkshire Hathaway. Berkshire would need to gain about $300 billion in market cap to catch Tesla, as of this past weekend.Historically, Buffett's company has been virtually unstoppable. Even though Berkshire Hathaway doesn't increase in value every year, Buffett has overseen an average annual return of better than 20% since taking the helm as CEO in 1965. Put another way, shareholders have doubled their money holding Berkshire Hathaway stock, on average, every 3.6 years for close to six decades.One of the key reasons Berkshire Hathaway is such a success -- aside from being led by Warren Buffett -- is due to its investment portfolio being packed with cyclical companies. Cyclical businesses perform well when the U.S. and global economy are expanding and struggle when recessions arise. The thing is, recessions typically last for a few months or a couple of quarters, whereas economic expansions are often measured in years. Buffett and his investing team are playing a simple numbers game where patience is the not-so-secret ingredient to wealth-building.Berkshire Hathaway is also raking in passive income. This year alone, Buffett's company is on pace to collect well north of $5 billion in dividend income. Over $4 billion in payouts will come from just a half-dozen holdings. This dividend income allows Berkshire to thrive in virtually any economic environment.Image source: Getty Images.If everything went just right: VisaA second well-known stock that has all the tools necessary to surpass Tesla's market cap, but would need things to continue to go its way, is payment processor Visa. To leapfrog Tesla, Visa must make up a nearly $590 billion valuation gap.Arguably the biggest challenge is going to be the emergence of blockchain technology, as well as the rise of digital payment platforms. Blockchain offers a way to circumvent banks and financial institutions to process payments quickly and cheaply. Visa is a payment processor on traditional merchant networks and will need payments to continue to flow through those channels if it's to have any chance of surpassing Tesla's market cap.Similar to Berkshire Hathaway, Visa benefits from the cyclical nature of financial stocks. Since economic expansions last disproportionately longer than contractions and recessions, Visa spends most of its time benefiting from an increase in consumer and enterprise spending. In the U.S., the largest market for consumption in the world, Visa holds a 54% share of credit card network purchase volume, as of 2020.Additionally, Visa acts purely as a payment processor and not a lender. Although lending would generate net interest income and fee revenue, it would also expose Visa to loan delinquencies during recessions. Since there's no loan exposure, there's no need for the company to set aside capital to cover possible losses during recessions. This is a big reason why Visa's profit margin is consistently above 50%.With the majority of global transactions still being conducted in cash, Visa's growth runway remains robust.Image source: Getty Images.The long shot: BroadcomLastly, the long shot of the group to surpass Tesla's market cap by 2030 is semiconductor solutions company Broadcom. With a market cap of $240 billion, Broadcom would need to more than quadruple just to catch Tesla at its current valuation.The reason I've classified Broadcom as a \"long shot\" is the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry. Even though periods of expansion handily outlast contractions and recessions, Wall Street has typically kept a low ceiling on price-to-earnings multiples for large chipmakers.On the other hand, there are multiple avenues for Broadcom to generate high-single-digit to low-double-digit annual sales growth throughout the decade. Currently, it generates the bulk of its revenue from wireless chips and assorted solutions used in next-generation smartphones. Telecom companies upgrading wireless infrastructure to 5G should lead to a multiyear device replacement cycle that keeps demand and pricing power high for Broadcom's smartphone solutions.However, it's the company's ancillary opportunities that could hold the key to surpassing Tesla. For example, Broadcom supplies connectivity and access chips used in data centers. With businesses shifting their data and that of their clients into the cloud at an accelerated pace in the wake of the pandemic, data center demand shouldn't slow anytime soon. Broadcom supplies chips used in next-gen vehicles, too.A final factor working in Broadcom's favor is its historically high backlog of $14.9 billion. This is a company that's booking production well into 2023, according to CEO Hock Tan. If Broadcom can maintain a large backlog of orders, its operating cash flow and valuation can steadily increase.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":389,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9087421541,"gmtCreate":1651039319122,"gmtModify":1676534839528,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sky is almost clear","listText":"Sky is almost clear","text":"Sky is almost clear","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9087421541","repostId":"1101605206","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1101605206","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":1651038945,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1101605206?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-27 13:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Boeing Earnings: Strong Deliveries Expect to Benefit Q1 Earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1101605206","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Boeing is slated to report its first-quarter 2022 results before the market open on Wednesday, April","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BA\">Boeing</a> is slated to report its first-quarter 2022 results before the market open on Wednesday, April 27th.</p><p><b>Latest Results</b></p><p>In the fourth quarter, 2021, Boeing’s net losses more than halved to $4.14 billion, or $7.02 a share, from $8.42 billion, or $14.65 a share, in the year-ago period.</p><p>Excluding nonrecurring items, core losses per share came to $7.69, compared with the FactSet per-share loss consensus of 36 cents.</p><p>Revenue fell 3.3% to $14.79 billion, while the FactSet consensus was for a rise to $16.54 billion.

Commercial aerospace revenue edged up 0.5% to $4.75 billion but was well below the FactSet consensus of $5.58 billion, and defense, space, and security revenue dropped 13.5% to $5.86 billion to miss expectations of $6.83 billion.Free cash flow swung to a positive $494 million from a negative $4.27 billion, while the FactSet consensus was for a negative $111.6 million.Boeing Q1 GuidanceAs to key drivers of 2022 revenue and cash. Boeing anticipates revenue increase primarily driven by higher commercial airplane deliveries on the 737 and 787 programs. That said, revenue will be impacted by 787 customer considerations and delivering 737 airplanes that were previously remarketed. Boeing forecasts stable revenue in the defense business and solid growth in the services business as the commercial market continues to improve.Moving to cash, Boeing still expects to generate positive free cash flow in 2022. The key driver remains higher 737 and 787 delivery volume. Boeing still anticipates a significant burn-down of advances balance this year.From a phasing standpoint, Boeing anticipates the first quarter to be its lowest quarter of the year for revenue, earnings, and cash flow. First-quarter cash flow could look similar to the usage we saw in 1Q 2021 driven by unfavorable receipt timing, excess advance payment burn-down, resource availability due to the Omicron variant and normal seasonality. Free cash flow will improve in the second quarter and will meaningfully accelerate in the back half of the year. Boeing expects 2023 cash flow will be materially higher than 2022.Here's what to watch in Boeing's upcoming report:Wall Street expects a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when Boeing (BA) reports results for the quarter ended March 2022. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.The Boeing Company BA recently reported the delivery figures of its commercial and defense operations for the first quarter of 2022. This reflects an improvement of 23.4% in commercial shipments from the previous year’s tally, while defense shipments indicate an improvement of 5.1% year over year.Combining both the segments, Boeing’s total deliveries in the fourth quarter were 136 units compared with 119 units delivered in the year-ago period. Strong delivery numbers may boost BA’s top line in the first quarter.Commercial Deliveries Continue to Remain StrongBoeing reported the commercial deliveries of 95 airplanes in the first quarter of 2022, which increased from the prior-year tally of 77, primarily driven by solid 737 deliveries.The shipments of 737 totaled 86 compared with 63 in the year-ago period. Boeing delivered five 767 jets during the quarter on par with the year-ago quarter’s tally. The shipments of the 777 model totaled three compared with six in the previous year’s first quarter. The delivery figure of 747 remained unchanged at one compared with the last year’s figure.However, the aerospace giant delivered none of its 787 Dreamliner jets in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the two jets it supplied in the prior-year quarter. Production quality issues concerning 787 Dreamliner remain a bottleneck for the company, resulting in a halt of its shipments. This impedes its overall commercial delivery stats to a certain extent.TailwindsThe 737 Max fleet continues to witness a northward trend in demand ever since its return to operations after the Federal Aviation Administration nod in November 2020. The significant momentum in demand for 737 jets continues to bolster the commercial delivery numbers of Boeing.Also, an upswing in air-travel demand due to the ease in domestic and international travel restrictions aided the delivery numbers of BA in the first quarter.Defense Deliveries Remain SolidBoeing reported the defense deliveries of 41 airplanes in the first quarter of 2022, which decreased by one jet from the prior-year tally of 42.The shipments of AH-64 Apache (remanufactured) deliveries remained flat at 15 compared with the year-ago period’s tally, while the delivery of AH-64 Apache (new) stood at seven compared with nine in the last year’s April quarter. The company delivered four CH-47 Chinook (new) jets during the first quarter compared with three jets shipped in the year-ago quarter.The shipments of F-15 Models included one jet compared with three in the prior-year quarter, whereas the delivery of the KC-46 Tanker increased by two jets from the previous-year figure to reach a total of four in the first quarter of 2022. The delivery of F/A-18 Models and P-8 Models remained flat at four and three, respectively, compared with units delivered in the year-ago period.Analyst OpinionsAccording to Zacks, Boeing is expected to post a quarterly loss of $0.26 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +83%. Revenues are expected to be $15.68 billion, up 3% from the year-ago quarter.Jefferies Financial Group set a $270 price target on shares of Boeing in a research report on March 9th.Cowen reduced their price target on shares of Boeing from $265 to $230 and set an “outperform” rating for the company in a research report on March 7th.UBS Group set a $290 price target on shares of Boeing in a research report on March 22nd.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":583,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9087421883,"gmtCreate":1651039298638,"gmtModify":1676534839523,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Opportunity","listText":"Opportunity","text":"Opportunity","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9087421883","repostId":"2230482878","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2230482878","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":1651014616,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2230482878?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-27 07:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Nasdaq Tumbles to Lowest Close Since Late 2020","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2230482878","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - Wall Street ended sharply lower on Tuesday, with the Nasdaq closing at its lowest since December 2020 as investors worried about slowing global growth and a more aggressive Federal Reserve","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - Wall Street ended sharply lower on Tuesday, with the Nasdaq closing at its lowest since December 2020 as investors worried about slowing global growth and a more aggressive Federal Reserve.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla </a> slumped 12% after investors worried that chief executive Elon Musk might sell some of his stake in the electric car maker to help pay for his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter, announced on Monday.</p><p>Tesla contributed more than any other stock to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq's steep declines.</p><p>It was the steepest one-day drop for the Nasdaq since September 2020.

United Parcel Service Inc (UPS.N) fell 3.5% despite reporting a rise in quarterly adjusted profit, while U.S. hospital operator Universal Health Services Inc (UHS.N) slumped nearly 9% after its earnings missed estimates.Meanwhile, data showed U.S. consumer confidence edged lower in April, though households planned to buy automobiles and many appliances, which should help underpin consumer spending in the second quarter.Volume on U.S. exchanges was 12.3 billion shares, compared with a 12.6 billion average over the last 20 trading days.Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 4.71-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 4.82-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted no new 52-week highs and 45 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 24 new highs and 646 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":367,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084423011,"gmtCreate":1650904221181,"gmtModify":1676534812645,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Dump","listText":"Dump","text":"Dump","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9084423011","repostId":"1117156407","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":265,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3572946614001509","authorId":"3572946614001509","name":"jolynnnnnnnn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a57c211e244dfbae9f8d7c0d2c8b547","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3572946614001509","idStr":"3572946614001509"},"content":"think so","text":"think so","html":"think so"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084429232,"gmtCreate":1650904179731,"gmtModify":1676534812637,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9084429232","repostId":"2230648141","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2230648141","pubTimestamp":1650900302,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2230648141?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-25 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Semiconductor Growth Stocks to Buy Now and Hold Forever","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2230648141","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The semiconductor industry could be one of the most important in the world right now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The semiconductor industry is arguably the most important contributor to modern-day electronics, from computers to smartphones and even cars.

The company specializes in analog chips and embedded processors, and it serves 100,000 customers, primarily in the industrial, automotive, and personal electronics markets. For instance, <b>Apple</b>'s iPhones are built using its technology. Better yet, every electronic device requires analog chips and most require embedded processors. And for both product categories, Texas Instruments is the market leader.</p><p>What's behind TI's success? It operates 15 manufacturing sites, and it handles most wafer fabrication, assembly, and testing internally. That allows the company a good deal of control over its supply chain, and it keeps costs down. Additionally, several of its wafer fabrication facilities use 300-millimeter technology, and chips built on 300-millimeter wafers cost about 40% less than those built on the 200-millimeter wafers used by most rivals.</p><p>Thanks to that competitive edge, Texas Instruments has delivered impressive financial results on a consistent basis. Revenue climbed 27% to $18.3 billion in 2021, and free cash flow rose 15% to $6.3 billion. Notably, free cash flow grew more slowly than revenue because the company is building several new 300-millimeter wafer fabrication plants, which should ultimately reinforce its competitive edge. The first new facility should enter production later this year.</p><p>Texas Instruments is well-positioned to maintain its momentum. Its business should grow as electronic devices continue to proliferate, and its investment in manufacturing technology should keep it ahead of the competition. That should lead to share-price appreciation over the long term. But the company has also increased its dividend at an annualized pace of 25% over the last 18 years; the quarterly payout currently sits at $1.15.

Snap’s quarterly revenue amounted to $1.06 billion compared to $1.07 billion that analysts expected.So far this year, SNAP’s share price has declined 35%.What Happened With SNAP StockSnap announced that its global daily active users (DAUs) totaled 332 million in this year’s first quarter compared to the 330 million that Wall Street expected. In addition to beating estimates, this users figure was up 18% year over year. Also, Snap’s average revenue per user (ARPU) was $3.20, up 16.8% year over year. ARPU did come in below estimates for $3.25.However, while Snap’s overall revenue increased 38% year over year, the company reported a bigger net loss and less free cash flow on an annual basis during the quarter that ended March 31.Perhaps worse, Snap said it expects that its Q2 revenue will rise between 20% and 25%, which is lower than Wall Street’s estimate of 28% growth. Those numbers have SNAPstock under pressure today.Why It MattersLike most technology stocks and other companies that thrived during pandemic lockdowns, Snap has been struggling since the market began to turn downwards last November. The latest financial results add to the negative sentiment surrounding not only SNAP stock, but other social media and technology securities.Snap attributed much of its poor Q1 results to ongoing problems it is experiencing with Apple’s(NASDAQ:AAPL) 2021 privacy change that makes it harder to target and measure ads on iPhones. Snap said that a new tool it created to improve the issue “now accounts for 90% of the company’s direct response advertising revenue.”What’s Next for Snap?Snap’s latest numbers are not inspiring steady confidence in the company. Going forward, Snap will need to achieve profitability and demonstrate consistent positive earnings if it hopes to turn things around.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9085363892,"gmtCreate":1650645347107,"gmtModify":1676534770386,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Anyone can make such prediction.

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.

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.

Over the last decade, the stock’s price has increased by nearly 2,200%.</p><p>Unfortunately for investors, that trend changed markedly following Q4 2021 results. Even though NFLX beat on the top and bottom line, and reported an 8.9% year over year increase in paid subscribers, the shares tumbled.</p><p>Following the earnings call, NFLX sank by 18% in after hours trading. Year-to-date, the stock has tumbled by well over 40%.</p><p>The short answer to the cause of the collapse is the relatively anemic guidance during the earnings call for subscriber growth. Management forecasts 2.5 million new customers to be added in the first quarter. If those numbers prove accurate, Q1 2022 will mark the slowest start to a year since 2011.</p><p>A more comprehensive assessment would include concerns regarding a pull forward in subscriber growth during lockdowns, increased competition, the relaxation of pandemic restrictions leading to reduced demand for streaming services, and questions ranging from the size of the firm’s debt to prospects for an increase in free cash flow.</p><p>Headwinds And Red Flags</p><blockquote>"There's more competition than there's ever been."</blockquote><blockquote>Reed Hastings,CEO, NFLX</blockquote><p>From 2011 through the end of 2021, Netflix grew its subscriber count from 26.3 million to 221.8 million. In that same time frame, annual revenue increased from $226 million to $5.1 billion.</p><p>While increases in subscriber growth have been routinely robust, the pandemic related lockdowns are credited with turbocharging the company’s growth. In 2020, Netflix added more than 36 million new subs.</p><p>Unfortunately for owners of the stock, there is a flipside to that coin. As COVID restrictions wane, folks are opting for entertainment outside their homes. Furthermore, it is reasonable to assume that much of the subscriber growth was pulled forward. Consequently, growth could be muted over the short to mid term.</p><p>A second concern is a marked increase in competition over the last three years. In 2019 Apple TV+ and Disney+ debuted. In the following year, HBO and Peacock were rolled out. Added to that list of new rivals is a more aggressive Amazon Prime Video.</p><p>Furthermore, it isn’t just the number of streamers vying for viewers' attention, it is the financial force that some bring to the table: Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) are noted for having deep pockets.</p><p>Consider this: in 2021, Amazon devoted over $61 billion to capex. Apple budgeted over $11 billion.</p><p>Netflix spent $17.7 billion on content in 2021.</p><p>Amazon’s cash and marketable securities totaled $96.1 billion at the end of 2021.</p><p>At the end of 1Q22, Apple’s cash and short and long-term investments totaled $205.6 billion. That exceeds the market cap for NFLX.</p><p>At the end of 2021, NFLX held $6 billion in cash and equivalents and had $15.4 billion in total debt.</p><p>Apple authorized $100 billion for share repurchases in 2018, $75 billion in 2019, $50 billion in 2020, and budgeted $90 billion in 2021 for stock buybacks. By simply paring back on stock repurchases, Apple could fund content at a level well above that of NFLX.</p><p>Aside from the cash on rival’s balance sheets, NFLX has a significantly lower debt profile. Although S&P bumped its rating for the company to BBB/stable, Moody’s rating remains Ba/1 positive, a notch below investment grade.</p><p>Do not mistake my intent. I am by no means claiming that Amazon or Apple can or will devote the bulk of their resources towards streaming services. My goal is to highlight that in terms of financial prowess, NFLX is in a fight that is tantamount to Sugar Ray Leonard brawling the Klitschko brothers.</p><p>Another example of the forces arrayed against NFLX lies in Disney’s move to up its content budget. Netflix spent $17.7 billion on content in 2021. Disney plans to increase its streaming content budget to $33 billion over its next fiscal year.</p><blockquote>We are nearly doubling the amount of original content from our marquee brands, Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars and National Geographic coming to Disney+ in fiscal year 2022, with the majority of our highly anticipated titles arriving July through September.</blockquote><blockquote>Bob Chapek,CEO,Disney</blockquote><p>Disney’s investment in streaming is driving growth outpacing that of NFLX. Disney added 17.4 million streaming customers in its last quarter, with 11.8 million added by Disney+. In contrast, NFLX added 8.3 million subscribers.</p><p>Another concern is the profitability, or lack thereof, associated with streaming services. Despite the success of Disney+, management recently pushed the period when the service will reach its peak operating losses to FY22, versus an original forecast of FY21. The company has repeated that Disney+ will not be profitable until FY24.</p><p>This segues well into the fact that NFLX has lost money for most of its existence. The company burned through $850 million in 2015 with the losses increasing each year to a peak of $3.3 billion in 2019. However, management expects the company to become free cash flow positive for the full year 2022 and beyond.</p><p>NFLX: Many Manifest Strengths</p><p>Multiplesurveysindicate the average US home subscribes to four or five streaming services. Considering Netflix holds a preeminent position, it is reasonable to assume it will maintain its spot, considering consumers preference for multiple streaming services.</p><p>Furthermore, a recent survey by Audience Project determined that in the US, NFLX commands a durable advantage over rivals: 90% of respondents stated they subscribe to Netflix, and 50% of that group listed the company as their favored streaming service.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6f25a68d4fc128d7d760f7ab6e8d42b\" tg-width=\"596\" tg-height=\"600\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Observer</p><p>A survey by data firm Antenna asked consumers which streaming service they would keep if they could only retain one. Netflix was the hands down winner with 41% of respondents, nearly double that of the runner up (at 21%), Hulu.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/85e3f8aa6fe492a234ee4e96870f6ee4\" tg-width=\"634\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Observer</p><p>In 2021, Netflix received the most Emmy and Oscar awards and nominations.</p><p>At the end of 2020, Netflix had nine of the top ten acquired series and seven of the top ten original series. According to Nielson, NFLX broadcast six of the top 10 original movies.</p><p>This is of particular importance as studies indicate 92% of consumers give great weight to a streamer’s portfolio of series and films when choosing a service. Furthermore, 78% of those surveyed ranked the amount of original content as very important or important.</p><p>With nearly 100 million more subscribers than Disney, the next largest rival, NFLX has a decided scale advantage. With more viewers on its platform, the company harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to provide insights into consumer interaction and preferences. In turn, this improves content acquisition and production decisions.</p><p>The second scale advantage is that the cost of producing a particular piece of content remains the same whether a company has ten million subscribers or two hundred million. Costs related to additional subscribers are minimal. There is a point where additional subs increase profit margin markedly.</p><p>The growth in the company’s profitability over the years illustrates this strength: in 2016, NFLX posted an operating margin of 4.3%. In 2021, that metric had grown to 20.9%.</p><p>While Netflix has likely reached a point in North America where anything above an incremental increase in subscribers is unlikely, the streamer has a potentially long growth runway overseas, especially in Asia. In 2021, 16.9 million of the company’s 18.2 million new subscribers came from outside the US and Canada.</p><p>Management forecasts 500 million subscribers as the company expands in India and other global markets.</p><blockquote>…there's probably 1 billion connected TVs around the world. And you can see our penetration in the U.S. that you kind of do that math, we're roughly 60% penetrated today. So, that pretty quickly gets us to business that's over 0.5 billion members.</blockquote><blockquote>Spence Neumann,CFO, NFLX</blockquote><p>Early this year, Netflix raised prices in the U.S. and Canada. The basic plan increased $1 to $10 per month, the standard plan increased by $1.50 to $14.49 per month, and the premium plan by $2 to $20 per month.</p><p>Unfortunately, increasing prices could prove deleterious. Recent surveys show 85% of respondents believe streaming services are too expensive, and that 32% of those surveyed canceled a streamer in the last year to cut costs.</p><p>Recent Developments</p><p>Late last year, Netflix slashed prices for its services in India. Monthly bills for subscribers will fall up to 60%. The standard plan, previously priced at the US equivalent of $6.55, will fall to $2.61.</p><p>While India is seen as a pivotal growth path for Netflix, the company is trailing competitors in the subcontinent. Disney+ Hotstar and Amazon Prime have 46 million and 19 million Indian subscribers respectively. NFLX has 5 million subs in that country.</p><blockquote>India, we are still figuring things out. And so that investment takes some guts and belief forward-looking.</blockquote><blockquote>Reed Hastings, Co-CEO</blockquote><p>While the situation in India may prove problematic, Netflix launched an initiative that could presage another revenue stream for the company. Last November, NFLXdebutedNetflix games.</p><p>A subscription to NFLX provides immediate access to the gaming platform. Members will be able to play games on multiple mobile devices using Android or iOS. The games are available in many of the languages NFLX offers with its streaming service.</p><p>Netflix bolstered the new gaming division by acquiring Oxenfree2, Finnish mobile game maker Next Games, and Boss Media Entertainment, the developer of the popular strategy role-playing game Dungeon Boss.</p><p>Here is Spence Neumann’sresponseto a question regarding the future of the gaming initiative.</p><blockquote>Well, again, it's still super early days. So this is something that, as I mentioned, I think earlier, I hope it's a big part of our business in a decade. It's not going to be a big part of our business in the next 12 months, but we're very pleased with what we're learning so far.</blockquote><p>If we are to take Mr. Neumann at his word, then investors should not expect an abrupt change in the company’s fortunes due to gaming. Count me as one that believes Microsoft (MSFT) is on a path to dominate gaming. I doubt NFLX will be able to compete at the highest level; however, I do see the addition of gaming to the company’s streaming services as a means to differentiate it from rivals and to add “stickiness” to its offerings.</p><p>What To Expect From Earnings</p><p>Netflix is scheduled to report its first-quarter earnings on April 19. The most closely watched metric will be the company's net paid subscriber additions. Management guided for just 2.5 million net new paid subs in the first quarter. This is well below the 4.0 million the company added in the comparable quarter of 2021. However, this should be kept in context, as consumers were flocking to streaming services due to COVID lockdowns.</p><p>Of course, the company's guidance for subscriber growth in the second quarter of 2022 will be of great importance. It is reasonable to assume the recent drop in NFLX shares was sparked by management’s guidance for net paid subscriber additions last quarter.</p><p>Of course, the period marked by the pandemic draws tough comparisons. However, for NFLX to match Q2 22 subscriber levels with pre-COVID levels, Netflix must guide for roughly 2.7 million new subscribers.</p><p>The company’s planned content budget, as well as forecasts related to free cash flow and other profit metrics, will be closely monitored.</p><p>Average revenue per subscriber increased by 7.6% in 2021, and analysts forecast that growth rate will nearly double to 15% in Q1 due to recent price changes in North America.</p><p>EPS is forecast to hit $2.92, and revenue is expected to land at $7.95 billion.</p><p>It is important to note that over the last ninety days there have been thirteen downward revisions for EPS versus one upward revision.</p><p>It will also be interesting to peruse management’s commentary regarding competition with rivals.</p><p>Is NFLX Stock Overvalued Now?</p><p>Netflix currently trades for $341.13 per share. The average 12-month price target of the 36 analysts covering the company is $534.71. The price target of the 28 analysts that rated the company since the last earning report is $655.60.</p><p>NFLX has a forward P/E of 30.54x versus its 5-year average P/E of 91.47x. The company’s 5-year PEG, according to Seeking Alpha, is 1.00x. Yahoo estimates the 5-year PEG at 1.67x. Both estimates are well below its average PEG of 2.27x.</p><p>Is NFLX Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?</p><p>I fear that to compete effectively, Netflix will be forced to increase its content budget markedly. Peruse the following exchange between an analyst and management during the third quarter earnings call:</p><blockquote>...do you look at your current $17 billion of cash spend and say, well, it's easy to imagine that being 2x or 3x, that level to achieve what we want to achieve.</blockquote><blockquote>..you're definitely thinking too small.

Over the last decade, the stock’s price has increased by nearly 2,200%.Unfortunately for investors, that trend changed markedly following Q4 2021 results. Even though NFLX beat on the top and bottom line, and reported an 8.9% year over year increase in paid subscribers, the shares tumbled.Following the earnings call, NFLX sank by 18% in after hours trading. Year-to-date, the stock has tumbled by well over 40%.The short answer to the cause of the collapse is the relatively anemic guidance during the earnings call for subscriber growth. Management forecasts 2.5 million new customers to be added in the first quarter. If those numbers prove accurate, Q1 2022 will mark the slowest start to a year since 2011.A more comprehensive assessment would include concerns regarding a pull forward in subscriber growth during lockdowns, increased competition, the relaxation of pandemic restrictions leading to reduced demand for streaming services, and questions ranging from the size of the firm’s debt to prospects for an increase in free cash flow.Headwinds And Red Flags\"There's more competition than there's ever been.\"Reed Hastings,CEO, NFLXFrom 2011 through the end of 2021, Netflix grew its subscriber count from 26.3 million to 221.8 million. In that same time frame, annual revenue increased from $226 million to $5.1 billion.While increases in subscriber growth have been routinely robust, the pandemic related lockdowns are credited with turbocharging the company’s growth. In 2020, Netflix added more than 36 million new subs.Unfortunately for owners of the stock, there is a flipside to that coin. As COVID restrictions wane, folks are opting for entertainment outside their homes. Furthermore, it is reasonable to assume that much of the subscriber growth was pulled forward. Consequently, growth could be muted over the short to mid term.A second concern is a marked increase in competition over the last three years. In 2019 Apple TV+ and Disney+ debuted. In the following year, HBO and Peacock were rolled out. Added to that list of new rivals is a more aggressive Amazon Prime Video.Furthermore, it isn’t just the number of streamers vying for viewers' attention, it is the financial force that some bring to the table: Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) are noted for having deep pockets.Consider this: in 2021, Amazon devoted over $61 billion to capex. Apple budgeted over $11 billion.Netflix spent $17.7 billion on content in 2021.Amazon’s cash and marketable securities totaled $96.1 billion at the end of 2021.At the end of 1Q22, Apple’s cash and short and long-term investments totaled $205.6 billion. That exceeds the market cap for NFLX.At the end of 2021, NFLX held $6 billion in cash and equivalents and had $15.4 billion in total debt.Apple authorized $100 billion for share repurchases in 2018, $75 billion in 2019, $50 billion in 2020, and budgeted $90 billion in 2021 for stock buybacks. By simply paring back on stock repurchases, Apple could fund content at a level well above that of NFLX.Aside from the cash on rival’s balance sheets, NFLX has a significantly lower debt profile. Although S&P bumped its rating for the company to BBB/stable, Moody’s rating remains Ba/1 positive, a notch below investment grade.Do not mistake my intent. I am by no means claiming that Amazon or Apple can or will devote the bulk of their resources towards streaming services. My goal is to highlight that in terms of financial prowess, NFLX is in a fight that is tantamount to Sugar Ray Leonard brawling the Klitschko brothers.Another example of the forces arrayed against NFLX lies in Disney’s move to up its content budget. Netflix spent $17.7 billion on content in 2021. Disney plans to increase its streaming content budget to $33 billion over its next fiscal year.We are nearly doubling the amount of original content from our marquee brands, Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars and National Geographic coming to Disney+ in fiscal year 2022, with the majority of our highly anticipated titles arriving July through September.Bob Chapek,CEO,DisneyDisney’s investment in streaming is driving growth outpacing that of NFLX. Disney added 17.4 million streaming customers in its last quarter, with 11.8 million added by Disney+. In contrast, NFLX added 8.3 million subscribers.Another concern is the profitability, or lack thereof, associated with streaming services. Despite the success of Disney+, management recently pushed the period when the service will reach its peak operating losses to FY22, versus an original forecast of FY21. The company has repeated that Disney+ will not be profitable until FY24.This segues well into the fact that NFLX has lost money for most of its existence. The company burned through $850 million in 2015 with the losses increasing each year to a peak of $3.3 billion in 2019. However, management expects the company to become free cash flow positive for the full year 2022 and beyond.NFLX: Many Manifest StrengthsMultiplesurveysindicate the average US home subscribes to four or five streaming services. Considering Netflix holds a preeminent position, it is reasonable to assume it will maintain its spot, considering consumers preference for multiple streaming services.Furthermore, a recent survey by Audience Project determined that in the US, NFLX commands a durable advantage over rivals: 90% of respondents stated they subscribe to Netflix, and 50% of that group listed the company as their favored streaming service.ObserverA survey by data firm Antenna asked consumers which streaming service they would keep if they could only retain one. Netflix was the hands down winner with 41% of respondents, nearly double that of the runner up (at 21%), Hulu.ObserverIn 2021, Netflix received the most Emmy and Oscar awards and nominations.At the end of 2020, Netflix had nine of the top ten acquired series and seven of the top ten original series. According to Nielson, NFLX broadcast six of the top 10 original movies.This is of particular importance as studies indicate 92% of consumers give great weight to a streamer’s portfolio of series and films when choosing a service. Furthermore, 78% of those surveyed ranked the amount of original content as very important or important.With nearly 100 million more subscribers than Disney, the next largest rival, NFLX has a decided scale advantage. With more viewers on its platform, the company harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to provide insights into consumer interaction and preferences. In turn, this improves content acquisition and production decisions.The second scale advantage is that the cost of producing a particular piece of content remains the same whether a company has ten million subscribers or two hundred million. Costs related to additional subscribers are minimal. There is a point where additional subs increase profit margin markedly.The growth in the company’s profitability over the years illustrates this strength: in 2016, NFLX posted an operating margin of 4.3%. In 2021, that metric had grown to 20.9%.While Netflix has likely reached a point in North America where anything above an incremental increase in subscribers is unlikely, the streamer has a potentially long growth runway overseas, especially in Asia. In 2021, 16.9 million of the company’s 18.2 million new subscribers came from outside the US and Canada.Management forecasts 500 million subscribers as the company expands in India and other global markets.…there's probably 1 billion connected TVs around the world. And you can see our penetration in the U.S. that you kind of do that math, we're roughly 60% penetrated today. So, that pretty quickly gets us to business that's over 0.5 billion members.Spence Neumann,CFO, NFLXEarly this year, Netflix raised prices in the U.S. and Canada. The basic plan increased $1 to $10 per month, the standard plan increased by $1.50 to $14.49 per month, and the premium plan by $2 to $20 per month.Unfortunately, increasing prices could prove deleterious. Recent surveys show 85% of respondents believe streaming services are too expensive, and that 32% of those surveyed canceled a streamer in the last year to cut costs.Recent DevelopmentsLate last year, Netflix slashed prices for its services in India. Monthly bills for subscribers will fall up to 60%. The standard plan, previously priced at the US equivalent of $6.55, will fall to $2.61.While India is seen as a pivotal growth path for Netflix, the company is trailing competitors in the subcontinent. Disney+ Hotstar and Amazon Prime have 46 million and 19 million Indian subscribers respectively. NFLX has 5 million subs in that country.India, we are still figuring things out. And so that investment takes some guts and belief forward-looking.Reed Hastings, Co-CEOWhile the situation in India may prove problematic, Netflix launched an initiative that could presage another revenue stream for the company. Last November, NFLXdebutedNetflix games.A subscription to NFLX provides immediate access to the gaming platform. Members will be able to play games on multiple mobile devices using Android or iOS. The games are available in many of the languages NFLX offers with its streaming service.Netflix bolstered the new gaming division by acquiring Oxenfree2, Finnish mobile game maker Next Games, and Boss Media Entertainment, the developer of the popular strategy role-playing game Dungeon Boss.Here is Spence Neumann’sresponseto a question regarding the future of the gaming initiative.Well, again, it's still super early days. So this is something that, as I mentioned, I think earlier, I hope it's a big part of our business in a decade. It's not going to be a big part of our business in the next 12 months, but we're very pleased with what we're learning so far.If we are to take Mr. Neumann at his word, then investors should not expect an abrupt change in the company’s fortunes due to gaming. Count me as one that believes Microsoft (MSFT) is on a path to dominate gaming. I doubt NFLX will be able to compete at the highest level; however, I do see the addition of gaming to the company’s streaming services as a means to differentiate it from rivals and to add “stickiness” to its offerings.What To Expect From EarningsNetflix is scheduled to report its first-quarter earnings on April 19. The most closely watched metric will be the company's net paid subscriber additions. Management guided for just 2.5 million net new paid subs in the first quarter. This is well below the 4.0 million the company added in the comparable quarter of 2021. However, this should be kept in context, as consumers were flocking to streaming services due to COVID lockdowns.Of course, the company's guidance for subscriber growth in the second quarter of 2022 will be of great importance. It is reasonable to assume the recent drop in NFLX shares was sparked by management’s guidance for net paid subscriber additions last quarter.Of course, the period marked by the pandemic draws tough comparisons. However, for NFLX to match Q2 22 subscriber levels with pre-COVID levels, Netflix must guide for roughly 2.7 million new subscribers.The company’s planned content budget, as well as forecasts related to free cash flow and other profit metrics, will be closely monitored.Average revenue per subscriber increased by 7.6% in 2021, and analysts forecast that growth rate will nearly double to 15% in Q1 due to recent price changes in North America.EPS is forecast to hit $2.92, and revenue is expected to land at $7.95 billion.It is important to note that over the last ninety days there have been thirteen downward revisions for EPS versus one upward revision.It will also be interesting to peruse management’s commentary regarding competition with rivals.Is NFLX Stock Overvalued Now?Netflix currently trades for $341.13 per share. The average 12-month price target of the 36 analysts covering the company is $534.71. The price target of the 28 analysts that rated the company since the last earning report is $655.60.NFLX has a forward P/E of 30.54x versus its 5-year average P/E of 91.47x. The company’s 5-year PEG, according to Seeking Alpha, is 1.00x. Yahoo estimates the 5-year PEG at 1.67x. Both estimates are well below its average PEG of 2.27x.Is NFLX Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?I fear that to compete effectively, Netflix will be forced to increase its content budget markedly. Peruse the following exchange between an analyst and management during the third quarter earnings call:...do you look at your current $17 billion of cash spend and say, well, it's easy to imagine that being 2x or 3x, that level to achieve what we want to achieve...you're definitely thinking too small. Now it will take a couple of decades to get there, it's not overnight.Pundits see streaming as having an enormous addressable market. However, NFLX has harvested most of the low-hanging fruit, and during much of its existence, the company had little competition.Increased competition is seldom a positive for any company. In the case of Netflix, rivals are emerging from many quarters, including some of the largest corporations in the world, and that is having its effect.Global demand share for Netflix dropped from 55% in Q2 2020 to 45.4% in Q4 2021.Senal NewsNonetheless, NFLX has a number of advantages, one of which is the company’s sheer scale. This leads to markedly larger profit margins once a streamer reaches a certain size. Additionally, as noted in this article, NFLX has a distinct content advantage over rivals.Although Netflix is still priced as a growth stock, the P/E and PEG levels are far below the company’s 5-year averages. Analysts forecast revenue to grow by 12.4% in 2022, although full-year earnings will remain near $11 per share. In 2023, earnings are expected to hit over $14.Consequently, I rate NFLX as a BUY.However, NFLX is not a SWAN investment. I suggest investors pay close attention to developments surrounding the streaming wars.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9088743474,"gmtCreate":1650386372368,"gmtModify":1676534711510,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584955097359320","idStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Funny reaction","listText":"Funny reaction","text":"Funny reaction","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9088743474","repostId":"1157102221","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1157102221","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":1650379973,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1157102221?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-19 22:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Uber Rose Over 4% in Morning Trading After Removing Mandate of Riders and Drivers Wearing Masks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1157102221","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Uber rose over 4% in morning trading after removing mandate of riders and drivers wearing masks,whil","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Uber rose over 4% in morning trading after removing mandate of riders and drivers wearing masks,while Lyft jumped nearly 4%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90716469e0450859586c07eca37d1824\" tg-width=\"767\" tg-height=\"564\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b0875eb486361fca1d3d6ad8fb229e6\" tg-width=\"765\" tg-height=\"571\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>It announced a change to its COVID safety policies on Tuesday, telling its users that masks were no longer required on rides,one day after a Florida judge overturned the mask mandate put forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

As such, I deem a Hold investment rating to be appropriate for TSLA's shares.</p><p><b>TSLA Stock Key Metrics</b></p><p>On April 2, 2022, TSLA issued a press release announcing the company's deliveries and production figures for Q1 2022.</p><p>Tesla's deliveries increased by +67.7% YoY and +0.5% QoQ to 310,048 units in the first quarter of this year. Specifically, deliveries for Model 3/Y grew +61.5% YoY to 295,324 units in Q1 2022, but declined marginally by -0.5% on a QoQ basis. The company's Model S/X deliveries expanded by +25.1% QoQ and +625.3% YoY to 14,724 units in the most recent quarter.</p><p>More significantly, TSLA's actual Q1 2022 deliveries fell slightly short of the sell-side's consensus forecast of312,000 units. I go into detail about the current lockdown in Shanghai, China which could have accounted for the deliveries miss in a subsequent section of the article titled "What To Expect From Earnings".</p><p>On the positive side of things, Tesla's production numbers were roughly flat on a QoQ basis at 305,407 units in the first quarter of 2022 as compared to 305,840 units produced in the final quarter of the prior year. In fact, I estimate that TSLA's daily production rate improved by +2% QoQ in Q1 2022 vis-a-vis Q4 2021 (different numbers of days in two quarters). In the "What Is Tesla's Forecast?" section below, I touch on TSLA's new production facilities in Berlin and Austin, which might have contributed to the increase in daily production rate for the first quarter of 2022.</p><p>In a later section of this article, I touch on how TSLA's Q1 2022 key operating metrics give us an indication of how the company could have performed in the quarter.</p><p><b>When Does Tesla Report Earnings?</b></p><p>Tesla is reporting the company's earnings for the first quarter of 2022 on April 20, 2022 after trading hours, as per its media release dated April 2, 2022 which was referred to in the preceding section of this article.</p><p><b>What To Expect From Earnings?</b></p><p>The Wall Street's consensus financial estimates suggest that Tesla's revenue and non-GAAP normalized earnings per share will grow by +71% YoY and +144% YoY to$17.8 billion and $2.26, respectively in the first quarter.</p><p>Notably, there have been very marginal changes made to the Q1 2022 consensus numbers for TSLA in recent months, even after the disclosure of deliveries in early-April. Tesla's consensus Q1 top line and bottom line were raised by+0.6% and +0.9%, respectively in the past one months. In the last three months, TSLA's consensus first quarter revenue was revised upwards by +0.5%, while analysts increased the consensus Q1 EPS by +0.3%. This implies that the market has confidence in Tesla's ability to deliver the results in the first quarter of this year, and I think the analysts are right.</p><p>In terms of sales volume, Tesla is likely to have been negatively affected by the COVID-19 lockdown in Shanghai, China which began onMarch 28, 2022. But this should have a very limited impact on TSLA's Q1 revenue given that the lockdown only happened in the last week of March, and this is validated by the fact that the company's first-quarter deliveries only missed the consensus estimates marginally. But if the lockdown in Shanghai does not ease going forward, TSLA's operating and financial performance for Q2 2022 could also be adversely affected.</p><p>With respect to pricing, TSLA has sent a strong signal to investors that the company has the pricing power to pass on cost increases to its customers. An April 7, 2022<i>Seeking Alpha News</i> article mentioned that the company "has raised the price of the Model 3 Long Range and Performance variants in the United States" this month. In the news article, it is also highlighted that Tesla has previously raised prices in March as well. This should help to sustain TSLA's profitability at the gross margin level.</p><p>In a nutshell, I don't see any major surprises relating to Tesla's Q1 2022 earnings announcement on April 20, 2022, as I expect the company's financial performance in the first quarter to be in line with what Wall Street is forecasting.</p><p><b>Is TSLA Stock Overvalued Now?</b></p><p>It is natural to be concerned if TSLA's shares are overvalued now considering its good share price performance.</p><p><b>Tesla's Stock Price Performance For The Past One Year</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dad935ce8636d8fa3617a0ef7ce0f18d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"221\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p><b>TSLA's 2022 Year-to-date Share Price Performance</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/22536e30336b72c2748f01484bf40f41\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"221\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>As per the charts presented above, Tesla's shares have outperformed the S&P 500 for both the one-year and year-to-date time periods.</p><p>But I assess Tesla's stock to be fairly valued.</p><p>My target price for TSLA is $1,026 based on a forward fiscal 2025 Enterprise Value-to-Revenue multiple of 12 times applied to the company's consensus FY 2025 top line estimate of $144 billion, and discounted back to the present.

But as long as China sticks to its "COVID-zero" policy, there is always a risk that there could be tightening of COVID-19 restrictions or new lockdowns in Shanghai going forward assuming another spike in pandemic cases somewhere down the road. In other words, this poses downside risks to Tesla's full-year 2022 deliveries and revenue.</p><p>Separately, new production facilities in Berlin and Austin should be positive for Tesla in terms of increasing the company's production capacity to meet future demand. According to an April 8, 2022 sell-side report (not publicly available) published by <i>Wedbush</i> titled "Giga Austin Rodeo Takeaways", Tesla is estimated to "have the run rate capacity for overall ~2 million units annually (by end-2022) from roughly 1 million today" thanks to the Austin and Berlin factories. But it is also inevitable that Tesla's profit margins will be hurt in the short-term, as the production facilities in Berlin and Austin will naturally be unable to run at their optimal capacities in the early stages of production ramp-up.</p><p>In summary, there are downside risks to TSLA's revenue and earnings which should warrant attention.

However, just because the broader market indexes head higher over time, it doesn't mean all stocks will be winners -- and Wall Street knows it.</p>\n<p>Although a vast majority of Wall Street ratings and price targets on publicly traded companies portend upside, some analysts see nothing short of calamity in the months and years that lie ahead for some of the most popular stocks. Based on the lowest Wall Street price target, the following three ultra-popular stocks could tumble between 81% and 98%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c4445b731e2c9c6acb2e5395056b6719\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"524\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Moderna: Implied downside of 81%</h2>\n<p>Biotech stock <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA) has been <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the fastest-growing and most successful investments since the beginning of 2020. However, Leerink Partners analyst Mani Foroohar sees things differently. Foroohar and Leerink have stuck by their sell rating and $85 price target on the company as it's soared. If Moderna were to fall back to $85, it would shed 81% of its value.</p>\n<p>On one hand, Moderna has been practically unstoppable, thanks to the successful development of mRNA-1273, one of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines to receive emergency-use authorization in the United States. In late-stage clinical studies released last November, Moderna's two-dose regimen of mRNA-1273 led to a vaccine efficacy (VE) of 94.1%. Even though recent studies have shown that VE wanes over time, the initial VE offered by mRNA-1273 has made it one of the two most-popular inoculation options in developed markets.</p>\n<p>Also working in Moderna's favor is the possibility that COVID-19 vaccines could become a recurring/seasonal thing. Mutations and variations of COVID-19 make it increasingly likely that it'll become an endemic disease. Without the ability to rid COVID-19 from the U.S. and other countries, booster shots may be necessary to combat it. In other words, Moderna's one-hit wonder could become a regular revenue stream.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, mRNA-1273 is Moderna's only revenue-producing asset, and competition in the vaccine space is only destined to become more crowded. Even if Moderna's vaccine remains toward the top end in terms of efficacy, the sheer volume of doses that need to be administered globally will open the door to other successful drugmakers.</p>\n<p>While Leerink's price target is potentially too aggressive to the downside, Moderna does have a lot to prove with a $181 billion market cap and only one marketed drug.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F642857%2Flordstown-endurance-steve-burns-ceo.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Now-former CEO Steve Burns standing next to a prototype of the Endurance all-electric. pickup. Image source: Lordstown Motors.</span></p>\n<h2>Lordstown Motors: Implied downside of 84%</h2>\n<p>Over the next decade, electric vehicles (EVs) could be one of the fastest-growing industries in North America. But Wall Street isn't too keen on one EV manufacturer, in particular: <b>Lordstown Motors</b> (NASDAQ:RIDE).</p>\n<p>According to analyst Joseph Spak at RBC Capital, Lordstown is worthy of an underperform rating and a $1 price target. If this price target becomes a reality, Lordstown's shares will have fallen 84%.</p>\n<p>Whereas there was both a clear bull and bear argument to share about Moderna above, the same can't be said of Lordstown Motors. It's been nothing short of a disaster.</p>\n<p>In March, a number of allegations were levied against the company by short-side firm Hindenburg Research. Although a number of these allegations proved to be without merit, a committee formed by Lordstown's independent directors found that the company had exaggerated the number of pre-orders of its Endurance EV pickup. Both Lordstown's CEO Steve Burns and CFO Julio Rodriguez resigned in the wake of these findings.</p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Lordstown Motors may not have enough capital to survive the next year. It costs a pretty penny to build a new automaker from the ground up. Even though the company ended June with $366 million in cash, it reported a second-quarter loss of $108 million.</p>\n<p>The real issue, as my auto-focused colleague John Rosevear notes, is that the company's Endurance pickup isn't anywhere close to being on schedule. Lordstown will probably see Endurance deliveries to customers commence in the second quarter of 2022, which doesn't exactly align with the idea put forward by the company that production would begin in September.</p>\n<p>With few avenues to raise cash and lukewarm demand for Endurance, a $1 price target may even prove too generous.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15eab863c856018bec9ca4a17856fe6d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>AMC Entertainment: Implied downside of 98%</h2>\n<p>And then there was meme stock kingpin <b>AMC Entertainment</b> (NYSE:AMC). AMC shouldn't be a surprise on this list, as the most bullish investment bank on Wall Street sees the company losing nearly 70% of its value, as of this past weekend. On the other end of the spectrum, Alan Gould at Loop Capital foresees AMC eventually heading back to $1 a share. That would be a decline of 98%, for those of you keeping score at home.</p>\n<p>The reason AMC has shot out of a cannon and pushed well beyond Wall Street's collective price targets is the unwavering support of retail investors who believe it'll undergo another short squeeze. This is a very short-term event whereby pessimists who are betting against a stock (i.e., short-sellers) run for the exit at the same time. Since short-sellers have to buy shares to cover their short positions, it can cause a rising stock price to briefly go parabolic.</p>\n<p>But as Gould and other analysts have noted with AMC, the numbers don't add up. While it's impossible to pinpoint when emotion will stop being the driving force behind AMC, the operating performance of a company and its balance sheet always dictate the long-term price performance of a company's stock. In this respect, the movie-theater industry has been in a nearly two-decade decline, with streaming services siphoning off moviegoers and AMC building up share in an industry where the proverbial pie is getting smaller.</p>\n<p>The far greater concern for AMC is the amount of leverage it took on to survive the pandemic. Although the company ended June with $2.023 billion in liquidity ($1.81 billion of which is cash), it's also sitting on nearly $5.5 billion in corporate debt, $420 million in deferred rent, and close to $4.9 billion in lease liabilities.</p>\n<p>By the end of 2023, the company expects to lay out $2.51 billion, at minimum, for lease liabilities and will likely have to repay its $420 million in back rent.

However, just because the broader market indexes head higher over time, it doesn't mean all stocks will be winners -- and Wall Street knows it.\nAlthough a vast majority of Wall Street ratings and price targets on publicly traded companies portend upside, some analysts see nothing short of calamity in the months and years that lie ahead for some of the most popular stocks. Based on the lowest Wall Street price target, the following three ultra-popular stocks could tumble between 81% and 98%.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nModerna: Implied downside of 81%\nBiotech stock Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) has been one of the fastest-growing and most successful investments since the beginning of 2020. However, Leerink Partners analyst Mani Foroohar sees things differently. Foroohar and Leerink have stuck by their sell rating and $85 price target on the company as it's soared. If Moderna were to fall back to $85, it would shed 81% of its value.\nOn one hand, Moderna has been practically unstoppable, thanks to the successful development of mRNA-1273, one of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines to receive emergency-use authorization in the United States. In late-stage clinical studies released last November, Moderna's two-dose regimen of mRNA-1273 led to a vaccine efficacy (VE) of 94.1%. Even though recent studies have shown that VE wanes over time, the initial VE offered by mRNA-1273 has made it one of the two most-popular inoculation options in developed markets.\nAlso working in Moderna's favor is the possibility that COVID-19 vaccines could become a recurring/seasonal thing. Mutations and variations of COVID-19 make it increasingly likely that it'll become an endemic disease. Without the ability to rid COVID-19 from the U.S. and other countries, booster shots may be necessary to combat it. In other words, Moderna's one-hit wonder could become a regular revenue stream.\nOn the other hand, mRNA-1273 is Moderna's only revenue-producing asset, and competition in the vaccine space is only destined to become more crowded. Even if Moderna's vaccine remains toward the top end in terms of efficacy, the sheer volume of doses that need to be administered globally will open the door to other successful drugmakers.\nWhile Leerink's price target is potentially too aggressive to the downside, Moderna does have a lot to prove with a $181 billion market cap and only one marketed drug.\nNow-former CEO Steve Burns standing next to a prototype of the Endurance all-electric. pickup. Image source: Lordstown Motors.\nLordstown Motors: Implied downside of 84%\nOver the next decade, electric vehicles (EVs) could be one of the fastest-growing industries in North America. But Wall Street isn't too keen on one EV manufacturer, in particular: Lordstown Motors (NASDAQ:RIDE).\nAccording to analyst Joseph Spak at RBC Capital, Lordstown is worthy of an underperform rating and a $1 price target. If this price target becomes a reality, Lordstown's shares will have fallen 84%.\nWhereas there was both a clear bull and bear argument to share about Moderna above, the same can't be said of Lordstown Motors. It's been nothing short of a disaster.\nIn March, a number of allegations were levied against the company by short-side firm Hindenburg Research. Although a number of these allegations proved to be without merit, a committee formed by Lordstown's independent directors found that the company had exaggerated the number of pre-orders of its Endurance EV pickup. Both Lordstown's CEO Steve Burns and CFO Julio Rodriguez resigned in the wake of these findings.\nTo make matters worse, Lordstown Motors may not have enough capital to survive the next year. It costs a pretty penny to build a new automaker from the ground up. Even though the company ended June with $366 million in cash, it reported a second-quarter loss of $108 million.\nThe real issue, as my auto-focused colleague John Rosevear notes, is that the company's Endurance pickup isn't anywhere close to being on schedule. Lordstown will probably see Endurance deliveries to customers commence in the second quarter of 2022, which doesn't exactly align with the idea put forward by the company that production would begin in September.\nWith few avenues to raise cash and lukewarm demand for Endurance, a $1 price target may even prove too generous.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nAMC Entertainment: Implied downside of 98%\nAnd then there was meme stock kingpin AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). AMC shouldn't be a surprise on this list, as the most bullish investment bank on Wall Street sees the company losing nearly 70% of its value, as of this past weekend. On the other end of the spectrum, Alan Gould at Loop Capital foresees AMC eventually heading back to $1 a share. That would be a decline of 98%, for those of you keeping score at home.\nThe reason AMC has shot out of a cannon and pushed well beyond Wall Street's collective price targets is the unwavering support of retail investors who believe it'll undergo another short squeeze. This is a very short-term event whereby pessimists who are betting against a stock (i.e., short-sellers) run for the exit at the same time. Since short-sellers have to buy shares to cover their short positions, it can cause a rising stock price to briefly go parabolic.\nBut as Gould and other analysts have noted with AMC, the numbers don't add up. While it's impossible to pinpoint when emotion will stop being the driving force behind AMC, the operating performance of a company and its balance sheet always dictate the long-term price performance of a company's stock. In this respect, the movie-theater industry has been in a nearly two-decade decline, with streaming services siphoning off moviegoers and AMC building up share in an industry where the proverbial pie is getting smaller.\nThe far greater concern for AMC is the amount of leverage it took on to survive the pandemic. Although the company ended June with $2.023 billion in liquidity ($1.81 billion of which is cash), it's also sitting on nearly $5.5 billion in corporate debt, $420 million in deferred rent, and close to $4.9 billion in lease liabilities.\nBy the end of 2023, the company expects to lay out $2.51 billion, at minimum, for lease liabilities and will likely have to repay its $420 million in back rent. That's $2.9 billion in upcoming payments over a 30-month period for a company that's still burning cash and has only $2 billion in liquidity.\nTo boot, AMC's retail investors won't approve any additional share offerings, leaving the company with no avenues to further raise capital. As with Lordstown, even a $1 price target might be generous when given enough time.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":87,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":830860677,"gmtCreate":1629047913099,"gmtModify":1676529916305,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good potential ","listText":"Good potential ","text":"Good potential","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/830860677","repostId":"1127633167","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127633167","pubTimestamp":1628997765,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127633167?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-15 11:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 10 Standout Stocks Could Be the Next Amazon","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127633167","media":"Barrons","summary":"One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors loo","content":"<p>One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors looking for the next Amazon.com, Costco Wholesale, Nike, or Visa seek to identify companies capable of generating double-digit compound growth in revenue and earnings—preferably both—for years to come.</p>\n<p>The idea is that stock prices should compound in line with revenue and profits, enabling investors to generate high returns over a holding period of five to 10 years.

But the shares, around $185, are off nearly 30% after the company recently cut 2021 financial guidance, citing Covid-related staffing and cost issues, mostly in acquired hospice operations. The 2021 earnings estimate is now $6.13 a share, down from nearly $7. The stock trades for 30 times projected 2021 profits. Cole says that the company remains capable of generating 10% annual gains in earnings per share.</p>\n<p>Amyris(AMRS) is a leader in synthetic biology. It fans say its opportunity is to supplant, in an eco-friendly way, a range of products now made from petrochemicals, animals, and plants.</p>\n<p>Using genetically re-engineered yeast and sugar cane, Amyris produces such things as squalane, a high-end moisturizer formerly made from shark livers; vanillin, the flavoring for vanilla; and a no-calorie sweetener normally derived from plants. The stock trades around $13.</p>\n<p><i>Barron’s</i> wrote favorably on the company in July. Amyris sees sales reaching $2 billion by 2025, up from an estimated $400 million this year, driven by its consumer brands.</p>\n<p>“The world needs clean chemistry, and Amyris is the point on the spear to create it,” says Randy Baron, a portfolio manager at Pinnacle Associates, which owns Amyris shares. He thinks they could hit $75 by the end of 2022.</p>\n<p>Booz Allen Hamilton Holding(BAH) is an important consultant to the Defense Department and other agencies. The U.S. government accounted for 97% of its revenue in its latest fiscal year. Booz Allen has built robust ties to the government over the years by providing an array of services, like cybersecurity. Its stock trades around $81, for a 1.8% yield.</p>\n<p>“It has built a strong, partnership-like culture and has a long record of steady growth,” says Josh Spencer, manager of the T. Rowe Price New Horizons fund. He sees Booz Allen as capable of generating 9% to 10% annual growth in revenue and yearly gains of 15% to 16% in earnings, in line with its historical performance. The stock is off 20% from its peak of $100, amid concerns about more restrained military spending. Spencer sees the pullback as a buying opportunity, with the stock valued at less than 20 times earnings.</p>\n<p>J.B. Hunt Transport Services(JBHT) is a leader in intermodal freight, which involves the fuel-efficient movement of trucks over rail lines. It has been one of the most successful trucking companies. Its stock has risen 30-fold over the past 20 years, to a recent $173. “It has an incredible franchise,” says Henry Ellenbogen, chief investment officer at Durable Capital Partners and a member of the Barron’s Roundtable.</p>\n<p>J.B. Hunt’s relationship with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad gives it a strong position in intermodal freight, he notes. J.B. Hunt also has a growing business taking over the trucking operations of smaller companies. And it is involved in digital freight brokerage—matching truckers with shipping customers.</p>\n<p>Ellenbogen says the stock is reasonable at 22 times estimated 2022 profits, given a mid-teens annual growth outlook for earnings.</p>\n<p>Marriott Vacations Worldwide(VAC) is one of the top companies in the timeshare industry. It has 700,000 owners, a resilient business model with significant revenue from fees, and more exposure than its peers to luxury properties in places including Hawaii and Orlando, Fla.</p>\n<p>“It has the best customer base, with the highest spending and an impeccable balance sheet,” says David Baron, a manager of the Baron Focused Growth fund. Marriott Vacations, whose shares recently were trading around $145, should reinstate its dividend later this year, he adds.</p>\n<p>The shares, Baron argues, are cheap at a 11% free-cash-flow yield, based on 2022 estimates. He says that the stock, little changed since 2018, could produce 20% annual returns for shareholders in the coming years.</p>\n<p>SiteOne Landscape Supply(SITE) is the country’s top supplier of landscaping products, with ample opportunity to expand, given that it has just a 13% market share in a highly fragmented industry.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>“It’s growing organically and has lots of acquisition opportunities,” says Columbia’s Cole, who considers the company to be capable of 10% to 15% annual revenue growth.</p>\n<p>The stock, around $197, has a rich valuation, trading for 43 times projected 2022 earnings of $4.54 a share.</p>\n<p>Staar Surgical(STAA) has developed an implantable lens to correct myopia (nearsightedness). That addresses a potentially huge market, given the rising global incidence of that vision problem. The company expects the lens, which has been available in Europe and Asia for at least five years, to be on the U.S. market in the fourth quarter, pending Food and Drug Administration approval.</p>\n<p>“It could do substantial volumes,’’ says Doug Brodie, a global manager at Baillie Gifford. “It’s early in a journey and is largely devoid of competition.”</p>\n<p>Lenses for both eyes can be implanted in less than an hour, and they don’t involve the removal of the natural lenses. The wholesale cost in the U.S. could be around $1,000 per lens.</p>\n<p>At a recent $138, Staar shares are richly valued at more than 20 times projected 2022 sales and 140 times estimated 2022 earnings. But the market opportunity is enormous: Some five billion people worldwide could have myopia by 2050.</p>\n<p>Stitch Fix(SFIX) has developed a subscription service for clothing, shoes, and other accessories and boasts over four million customers.</p>\n<p>“This could be the Nordstrom of the future,” says Mario Cibelli, chief investment officer at Marathon Partners Equity Management, a Stitch Fix holder. “This a potentially huge market and nobody is addressing it in the same way.” Using a staff of 6,000 personal stylists and lots of data, Stitch Fix seeks to identify subscriber tastes to generate high satisfaction and limit returns on packages sent at intervals and determined by subscribers.</p>\n<p>Its shares, around $44, are down 60% from their level earlier in the year, on investors’ worries about potential churn and the business’s ultimate profitability.</p>\n<p>Yet Cibelli sees revenue growth of 20%-plus annually, opportunities outside its current U.S. and U.K. markets, and a potentially very profitable business in two to three years.</p>\n<p>Trex(TREX) is the top producer of a high-end wood alternative for decks that comes from 95% recycled material, making it an eco-friendly housing play. The shares, at $105, trade for 43 times projected 2022 earnings.</p>\n<p>T. Rowe Price’s Spencer views Trex as worth the price, based on his view that it can generate sustainable annual revenue growth of 15% to 20%. Earnings are expected to climb by about 20% in 2022 and at a similar pace in the following years. “If you roll the clock forward three years, it doesn’t look as expensive,” he says.</p>\n<p>Upwork(UPWK), an online marketplace for freelance workers, is favored by Baillie Gifford’s Brodie, who says it offers a play on the greater acceptance of freelancers by businesses.</p>\n<p>The shares, recently around $44, aren’t cheap. Upwork is valued at $5.7 billion, or more than 10 times this year’s projected sales of nearly $500 million.

The ultimate goal is to find the elusive “10 bagger”—a stock that returns 10 times what you paid for it.\nWall Street analyst notes and client letters from investment pros are replete with compounder references. Many of the next generation of value managers, identified in a Barron’s cover story in May, are seeking such shares, rather than the traditional value fare of cheap stocks.\nTheir search has become more challenging, because buyers are paying lofty prices for high-growth stories. Really big winners are scarce. Only about 35 companies in each of a long series of 10-year periods have compounded their stock prices at 20% or more annually, resulting in at least a sixfold increase, according to Durable Capital Partners.\nMany investors are happy to stick with large, well-known compounders, such as Alphabet(ticker: GOOGL),Mastercard(MA),UnitedHealth Group(UNH), and Eli Lilly(LLY).\nBarron’s sought to identify smaller candidates. We talked to investment managers and came up with an eclectic list of 10 stocks, most with market values under $10 billion. Here are the selections, in alphabetical order:\nStrong and Steady Wins the RaceHere are 10 stocks that growth investors have identified as being able to generate consistently high growth in revenues or profits for many years.\n\n\n\nCompany / Ticker\nRecent Price\nYTD Change\n2021E P/E\n2021E Price/Sales\n2022E P/E\n2022E Price/Sales\nLT Growth Rate*\nMarket Value (bil)\nComment\n\n\n\n\nAmedysis / AMED\n$185.15\n-37%\n30.2\n2.7\n27.7\n2.4\n10.5%\n$6.3\nLeader in home health care\n\n\nAmyris / AMRS\n13.64\n121\nNM\n10.4\nNM\n9.7\nNA\n4.1\nLeading company in synthetic biology\n\n\nBooz Allen Hamilton Holding / BAH\n81.73\n-6\n19.4\n1.3\n17.7\n1.2\n8.6\n11.0\nDefense-department consultant\n\n\nJ.B.

But the shares, around $185, are off nearly 30% after the company recently cut 2021 financial guidance, citing Covid-related staffing and cost issues, mostly in acquired hospice operations. The 2021 earnings estimate is now $6.13 a share, down from nearly $7. The stock trades for 30 times projected 2021 profits. Cole says that the company remains capable of generating 10% annual gains in earnings per share.\nAmyris(AMRS) is a leader in synthetic biology. It fans say its opportunity is to supplant, in an eco-friendly way, a range of products now made from petrochemicals, animals, and plants.\nUsing genetically re-engineered yeast and sugar cane, Amyris produces such things as squalane, a high-end moisturizer formerly made from shark livers; vanillin, the flavoring for vanilla; and a no-calorie sweetener normally derived from plants. The stock trades around $13.\nBarron’s wrote favorably on the company in July. Amyris sees sales reaching $2 billion by 2025, up from an estimated $400 million this year, driven by its consumer brands.\n“The world needs clean chemistry, and Amyris is the point on the spear to create it,” says Randy Baron, a portfolio manager at Pinnacle Associates, which owns Amyris shares. He thinks they could hit $75 by the end of 2022.\nBooz Allen Hamilton Holding(BAH) is an important consultant to the Defense Department and other agencies. The U.S. government accounted for 97% of its revenue in its latest fiscal year. Booz Allen has built robust ties to the government over the years by providing an array of services, like cybersecurity. Its stock trades around $81, for a 1.8% yield.\n“It has built a strong, partnership-like culture and has a long record of steady growth,” says Josh Spencer, manager of the T. Rowe Price New Horizons fund. He sees Booz Allen as capable of generating 9% to 10% annual growth in revenue and yearly gains of 15% to 16% in earnings, in line with its historical performance. The stock is off 20% from its peak of $100, amid concerns about more restrained military spending. Spencer sees the pullback as a buying opportunity, with the stock valued at less than 20 times earnings.\nJ.B. Hunt Transport Services(JBHT) is a leader in intermodal freight, which involves the fuel-efficient movement of trucks over rail lines. It has been one of the most successful trucking companies. Its stock has risen 30-fold over the past 20 years, to a recent $173. “It has an incredible franchise,” says Henry Ellenbogen, chief investment officer at Durable Capital Partners and a member of the Barron’s Roundtable.\nJ.B. Hunt’s relationship with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad gives it a strong position in intermodal freight, he notes. J.B. Hunt also has a growing business taking over the trucking operations of smaller companies. And it is involved in digital freight brokerage—matching truckers with shipping customers.\nEllenbogen says the stock is reasonable at 22 times estimated 2022 profits, given a mid-teens annual growth outlook for earnings.\nMarriott Vacations Worldwide(VAC) is one of the top companies in the timeshare industry. It has 700,000 owners, a resilient business model with significant revenue from fees, and more exposure than its peers to luxury properties in places including Hawaii and Orlando, Fla.\n“It has the best customer base, with the highest spending and an impeccable balance sheet,” says David Baron, a manager of the Baron Focused Growth fund. Marriott Vacations, whose shares recently were trading around $145, should reinstate its dividend later this year, he adds.\nThe shares, Baron argues, are cheap at a 11% free-cash-flow yield, based on 2022 estimates. He says that the stock, little changed since 2018, could produce 20% annual returns for shareholders in the coming years.\nSiteOne Landscape Supply(SITE) is the country’s top supplier of landscaping products, with ample opportunity to expand, given that it has just a 13% market share in a highly fragmented industry.\n\n“It’s growing organically and has lots of acquisition opportunities,” says Columbia’s Cole, who considers the company to be capable of 10% to 15% annual revenue growth.\nThe stock, around $197, has a rich valuation, trading for 43 times projected 2022 earnings of $4.54 a share.\nStaar Surgical(STAA) has developed an implantable lens to correct myopia (nearsightedness). That addresses a potentially huge market, given the rising global incidence of that vision problem. The company expects the lens, which has been available in Europe and Asia for at least five years, to be on the U.S. market in the fourth quarter, pending Food and Drug Administration approval.\n“It could do substantial volumes,’’ says Doug Brodie, a global manager at Baillie Gifford. “It’s early in a journey and is largely devoid of competition.”\nLenses for both eyes can be implanted in less than an hour, and they don’t involve the removal of the natural lenses. The wholesale cost in the U.S. could be around $1,000 per lens.\nAt a recent $138, Staar shares are richly valued at more than 20 times projected 2022 sales and 140 times estimated 2022 earnings. But the market opportunity is enormous: Some five billion people worldwide could have myopia by 2050.\nStitch Fix(SFIX) has developed a subscription service for clothing, shoes, and other accessories and boasts over four million customers.\n“This could be the Nordstrom of the future,” says Mario Cibelli, chief investment officer at Marathon Partners Equity Management, a Stitch Fix holder. “This a potentially huge market and nobody is addressing it in the same way.” Using a staff of 6,000 personal stylists and lots of data, Stitch Fix seeks to identify subscriber tastes to generate high satisfaction and limit returns on packages sent at intervals and determined by subscribers.\nIts shares, around $44, are down 60% from their level earlier in the year, on investors’ worries about potential churn and the business’s ultimate profitability.\nYet Cibelli sees revenue growth of 20%-plus annually, opportunities outside its current U.S. and U.K. markets, and a potentially very profitable business in two to three years.\nTrex(TREX) is the top producer of a high-end wood alternative for decks that comes from 95% recycled material, making it an eco-friendly housing play. The shares, at $105, trade for 43 times projected 2022 earnings.\nT. Rowe Price’s Spencer views Trex as worth the price, based on his view that it can generate sustainable annual revenue growth of 15% to 20%. Earnings are expected to climb by about 20% in 2022 and at a similar pace in the following years. “If you roll the clock forward three years, it doesn’t look as expensive,” he says.\nUpwork(UPWK), an online marketplace for freelance workers, is favored by Baillie Gifford’s Brodie, who says it offers a play on the greater acceptance of freelancers by businesses.\nThe shares, recently around $44, aren’t cheap. Upwork is valued at $5.7 billion, or more than 10 times this year’s projected sales of nearly $500 million. It operates at a slight loss.\nThe investment case is about rapid sales growth leading to ample earnings. Sales are expected to rise by 30%-plus this year and 25% for 2022.\n“Freelancers are more accepted by small to midsize business, but they’ve been frowned on by the HR departments at large businesses,” Brodie says. Upwork aims to change that perception by vetting its freelancers and by offering thousands of skill sets. “Upwork could become a trusted partner for an increasing number of enterprise-grade partners,” he says.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":56,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":815291588,"gmtCreate":1630679083044,"gmtModify":1676530374879,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/815291588","repostId":"1151569309","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1151569309","pubTimestamp":1630676828,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1151569309?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-03 21:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AMZN Is The Only FAAMG Stock Off Its Peak.

Roughly speaking, FAAMG stocks behave similarly to the macroeconomic and broad market forces. Healthy consumer spending, economic growth, market enthusiasm and low interest rates are all bullish factors across the entire peer group.\nFigure 2: Number of FAAMG stocks off peak. data from Yahoo Finance\nBuy-the-dip opportunity\nIn my view, Amazon’s loser status within the peer group (measured in this case by drawdowns) is still reminiscent of the company’sill-received third quarter earnings report. Back in July, the Seattle-based giant burst analysts’ and investors’ bubble, delivering e-commerce revenues that lagged consensus.\nAmazon is not out of the doghouse yet. While COVID-19 fears have lingered, fueling some hopes that the digital retail channel will still perform well in the second half of 2021, the global economies should gradually (and hopefully) reopen and return to “a new normal” over the next 12 months. Therefore, e-commerce headwinds in the foreseeable future are certainly not out of question.\nHowever,history has shown time and again that buying Amazon stock on pullbacks is a good strategy. While the current drawdown of only 5% to 10% may not seem like much,I believe that reasonable valuation shelp to set up AMZN for higher-than-peer group returns over the next several months.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":86,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084423011,"gmtCreate":1650904221181,"gmtModify":1676534812645,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Dump","listText":"Dump","text":"Dump","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9084423011","repostId":"1117156407","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1117156407","pubTimestamp":1650899580,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1117156407?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-25 23:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Netflix Stock: Should You Buy the Dip?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1117156407","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Even after a 35% drop in its stock price, it might not be a good time to buy NFLX.Earnings season ha","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Even after a 35% drop in its stock price, it might not be a good time to buy NFLX.</p><p>Earnings season has begun, and Netflix has gotten off to a bad start in 2022.

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":421,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9011478856,"gmtCreate":1648916966219,"gmtModify":1676534421857,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Everyone else too","listText":"Everyone else too","text":"Everyone else too","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9011478856","repostId":"1196624996","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196624996","pubTimestamp":1648883340,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1196624996?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-02 15:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toyota, GM Report Slowing U.S. Auto Sales","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196624996","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Major auto makers reported a pullback in U.S. sales for the first quarter of 2022, as a shortage of ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Major auto makers reported a pullback in U.S. sales for the first quarter of 2022, as a shortage of vehicles on dealership lots continued to hamper business and suppress buying activity ahead of what is typically a busy selling season.</p><p>Analysts are forecasting first-quarter sales for the industry could drop as much as 16% over the prior-year period, when car-lot stock was more plentiful and buyers, benefiting from a recovering economy, snatched up vehicles at a blistering pace.</p><p>Auto executives and dealers say underlying demand remains strong with most new cars and trucks sold almost as soon as they hit the lot.

Across all industries, those companies making best use of the cloud are winning and leaving their peers in the dust. And in the decade ahead, the trend will remain a high-growth theme with annual spending on the cloud expected to reach $1 trillion worldwide.</p>\n<p>To that end, <b>Teladoc Health</b> (NYSE:TDOC), <b>Unity Software</b> (NYSE:U), and <b>Twilio </b>(NYSE:TWLO) look like great buys for the month of August. Here's why.</p>\n<h3>Teladoc Health: Don't sweat the 2021 stock performance</h3>\n<p>The market seems to think Teladoc stock had gotten way ahead of itself after about a 250% run-up from the start of 2020 to mid-February 2021. Since then, Teladoc has been halved in value from its all-time high. I'm fine with that. I was a shareholder of the leading virtual healthcare provider before the pandemic and am happy to continue as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> as the global economy gradually adjusts to the \"new normal.\"</p>\n<p>Granted, there is ongoing debate about the future viability of Teladoc's business. Telemedicine (visiting with a healthcare professional via phone or video conference) has turned into a staple in the wake of the pandemic, and plenty of competition has entered the fray -- chief among them <b>Amazon</b>'s (NASDAQ:AMZN) virtual healthcare service that started internally for Amazon employees but is now in the early stages of being offered to other employers.</p>\n<p>But Teladoc's acquisition of connected health data monitoring firm Livongo last year and a steady rollout of other services (like Teladoc's cloud platform Solo collaborating with <b>Microsoft </b>(NASDAQ:MSFT) Teams, and the launch of Teladoc's new unified mental health service myStrength Complete) display the large lead the company has over its peers. The full-year 2021 outlook for revenue of no less than $2.0 billion, nearly double the $1.1 billion hauled in last year, also demonstrates digitally connected healthcare is more than just a one-off pandemic-fueled event. Teladoc got in early on a new secular trend that's using connectivity and cloud computing to disrupt the massive healthcare system.</p>\n<p>Even after the drubbing it's endured this year, Teladoc stock has more than doubled in value over the last three-year stretch. Now trading for just over 10 times expected full-year 2021 sales, this looks like a long-term value on a proven winner in the healthcare technology space.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e5206f407a4d7605d3e87ce0d1e9a5b2\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Unity Software: A new cloud-based creation platform in the making</h3>\n<p>Unity was full of surprises when it provided its second-quarter 2021 update. The headline featured a 48% year-over-year increase in revenue to nearly $274 million, far ahead of management's outlook for as much as $245 million provided a few months prior. This prompted an upgrade to full-year 2021 revenue guidance, now expected to be $1.045 billion to $1.06 billion (previously $1 billion to $1.015 billion) -- implying at least 35% growth over 2020.</p>\n<p>The company is also flexing its financial muscle and going shopping. It will be using $320 million of its $1.59 billion in cash and equivalents (as of the end of June) to purchase remote work outfit Parsec. As a cloud-based offering, Unity already has built-in capabilities to allow creative content creators to collaborate with each other from afar, but adding Parsec will seriously up the game in this department. Additionally, in July Unity also said it was purchasing small virtual environment creation firm Interactive Data Visualization to help users speed up their development of life-like digital worlds.</p>\n<p>Unity is developing new tools in-house too. It recently launched Unity Computer Vision Datasets, aimed at helping users accelerate the training of their own AI software systems. Computer vision (which gives a machine the ability to \"see\" and interpret what it's looking at) is finding new use cases in industries like manufacturing, retail, and security, building on Unity's core proficiencies as a digital content creation platform and extending its reach in new directions.</p>\n<p>Unity took a beating this past spring along with other high-growth tech stocks, but it's back on the rise following the last quarterly results and shares are now down only 28% from all-time highs. With a market cap of $35 billion, this software firm is valued at over 34 times expected 2021 sales -- a steep premium. But given Unity's forecast for average long-term growth of at least 30% a year and its massive profit potential as it partners with a diverse list of businesses throughout the economy, this remains one of my favorite cloud platforms out there.</p>\n<h3>Twilio: Communications services will never be the same</h3>\n<p>Like Teladoc and Unity, Twilio shareholders also endured a beat-down this past spring. Though it has rallied in recent months, the stock is still down nearly 20% from all-time highs. But this has been a long-term winner as this operator of cloud-based communications tools continues to disrupt the way the world stays in touch.</p>\n<p>Up for grabs are the trillions of dollars spent on telecom, mobile phone, and related services every year around the globe. Thanks to the cloud, there are more ways than ever for consumers to contact companies they do business with, and for companies to build new systems to keep employees connected. Twilio manages a library of tools that embeds everything from chat to voice to video communications into websites and apps. The company reported having over 240,000 customers as of the end of June, compared to 200,000 a year ago. And net dollar-based expansion was 135% in Q2 2021, implying existing customers spent 35% more with Twilio than the year prior.</p>\n<p>As a result, Twilio obliterated its own expectations provided a few months ago for sales to be as high as $601 million in Q2. Instead, management said revenue came in at $669 million, up 67% year over year.

Across all industries, those companies making best use of the cloud are winning and leaving their peers in the dust. And in the decade ahead, the trend will remain a high-growth theme with annual spending on the cloud expected to reach $1 trillion worldwide.\nTo that end, Teladoc Health (NYSE:TDOC), Unity Software (NYSE:U), and Twilio (NYSE:TWLO) look like great buys for the month of August. Here's why.\nTeladoc Health: Don't sweat the 2021 stock performance\nThe market seems to think Teladoc stock had gotten way ahead of itself after about a 250% run-up from the start of 2020 to mid-February 2021. Since then, Teladoc has been halved in value from its all-time high. I'm fine with that. I was a shareholder of the leading virtual healthcare provider before the pandemic and am happy to continue as one as the global economy gradually adjusts to the \"new normal.\"\nGranted, there is ongoing debate about the future viability of Teladoc's business. Telemedicine (visiting with a healthcare professional via phone or video conference) has turned into a staple in the wake of the pandemic, and plenty of competition has entered the fray -- chief among them Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) virtual healthcare service that started internally for Amazon employees but is now in the early stages of being offered to other employers.\nBut Teladoc's acquisition of connected health data monitoring firm Livongo last year and a steady rollout of other services (like Teladoc's cloud platform Solo collaborating with Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Teams, and the launch of Teladoc's new unified mental health service myStrength Complete) display the large lead the company has over its peers. The full-year 2021 outlook for revenue of no less than $2.0 billion, nearly double the $1.1 billion hauled in last year, also demonstrates digitally connected healthcare is more than just a one-off pandemic-fueled event. Teladoc got in early on a new secular trend that's using connectivity and cloud computing to disrupt the massive healthcare system.\nEven after the drubbing it's endured this year, Teladoc stock has more than doubled in value over the last three-year stretch. Now trading for just over 10 times expected full-year 2021 sales, this looks like a long-term value on a proven winner in the healthcare technology space.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nUnity Software: A new cloud-based creation platform in the making\nUnity was full of surprises when it provided its second-quarter 2021 update. The headline featured a 48% year-over-year increase in revenue to nearly $274 million, far ahead of management's outlook for as much as $245 million provided a few months prior. This prompted an upgrade to full-year 2021 revenue guidance, now expected to be $1.045 billion to $1.06 billion (previously $1 billion to $1.015 billion) -- implying at least 35% growth over 2020.\nThe company is also flexing its financial muscle and going shopping. It will be using $320 million of its $1.59 billion in cash and equivalents (as of the end of June) to purchase remote work outfit Parsec. As a cloud-based offering, Unity already has built-in capabilities to allow creative content creators to collaborate with each other from afar, but adding Parsec will seriously up the game in this department. Additionally, in July Unity also said it was purchasing small virtual environment creation firm Interactive Data Visualization to help users speed up their development of life-like digital worlds.\nUnity is developing new tools in-house too. It recently launched Unity Computer Vision Datasets, aimed at helping users accelerate the training of their own AI software systems. Computer vision (which gives a machine the ability to \"see\" and interpret what it's looking at) is finding new use cases in industries like manufacturing, retail, and security, building on Unity's core proficiencies as a digital content creation platform and extending its reach in new directions.\nUnity took a beating this past spring along with other high-growth tech stocks, but it's back on the rise following the last quarterly results and shares are now down only 28% from all-time highs. With a market cap of $35 billion, this software firm is valued at over 34 times expected 2021 sales -- a steep premium. But given Unity's forecast for average long-term growth of at least 30% a year and its massive profit potential as it partners with a diverse list of businesses throughout the economy, this remains one of my favorite cloud platforms out there.\nTwilio: Communications services will never be the same\nLike Teladoc and Unity, Twilio shareholders also endured a beat-down this past spring. Though it has rallied in recent months, the stock is still down nearly 20% from all-time highs. But this has been a long-term winner as this operator of cloud-based communications tools continues to disrupt the way the world stays in touch.\nUp for grabs are the trillions of dollars spent on telecom, mobile phone, and related services every year around the globe. Thanks to the cloud, there are more ways than ever for consumers to contact companies they do business with, and for companies to build new systems to keep employees connected. Twilio manages a library of tools that embeds everything from chat to voice to video communications into websites and apps. The company reported having over 240,000 customers as of the end of June, compared to 200,000 a year ago. And net dollar-based expansion was 135% in Q2 2021, implying existing customers spent 35% more with Twilio than the year prior.\nAs a result, Twilio obliterated its own expectations provided a few months ago for sales to be as high as $601 million in Q2. Instead, management said revenue came in at $669 million, up 67% year over year. The outlook for the third quarter implies Twilio's trajectory will remain well over 50% compared to 2020.\nThis is becoming an incredibly powerful cloud service and is still in the early stages of disrupting the global communications industry. Besides the company's enviable growth rate, it ended June with $5.9 billion in cash and equivalents, offset by debt of only $985 million. At some 24 times full-year 2021 sales, this stock is a long-term value right now as organizations of all kinds migrate their internal communications systems over to the cloud to better address customer needs in the digital-first era.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":129,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":807430984,"gmtCreate":1628048381448,"gmtModify":1703500256166,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up up up","listText":"Up up up","text":"Up up up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/807430984","repostId":"2156312793","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2156312793","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":1628031785,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2156312793?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-04 07:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 closes at record high as Apple, healthcare stocks help shrug off Delta worries","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2156312793","media":"Reuters","summary":"Translate Bio surges on sale to $Sanofi$ in $3.2-bln deal.

The S&P 500 is down 11.8% in 2022.The U.S. central bank is expected to raise rates at its March 15-16 meeting.A survey showed U.S. consumer sentiment fell more than expected in early March as gasoline prices surged to a record high in the aftermath of Russia's war against Ukraine.Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.83-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.54-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted 13 new 52-week highs and 16 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 36 new highs and 274 new lows.About 13 billion shares changed hands in U.S. exchanges, compared with the 13.6 billion daily average over the last 20 sessions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881667393,"gmtCreate":1631332681312,"gmtModify":1676530531181,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Competitors are catching up fast.

There are now signs the stock's advance may not be over, with bigger gains to come. The stock could be heading to around $320 to $325 over the next couple of months, nearly 10% to 15% higher than its price of roughly $293 on August 17, based on an analysis of the options market and technical charts.</p>\n<p>The positive outlook for the stock comes despite the shares trading at a lofty valuation, just as earnings growth is expected to slow dramatically. It leaves investors in an awkward spot, wondering if they should continue to chase the stock higher just as year-over-year comparables get harder. But the reality of slowing growth may not hit until the company reports its next round of results in late October, giving the shares a path higher over the next couple of months.</p>\n<p><b>Slower Growth</b></p>\n<p>Earnings growth for Microsoft is expected to slip going forward, rising by 8.8% in the fiscal year 2022 from 39.7% in fiscal 2021. It is forecast to accelerate in the fiscal year 2023, but only to 14.3%, which is still slower than its earnings growth of 22.4% and 21.3% in 2019 and 2020. Additionally, growth rates over the next four quarters are expected to decelerate, dropping to 7.5% by the fourth quarter from 13.5% in the fiscal first quarter.</p>\n<p>The slowing growth rate presents the biggest problem for the stock because it currently trades at 29.3 times 2023 earnings estimates. This is not a cheap valuation for Microsoft. In fact, over the past 5 years, the stock has averaged a PE ratio of just 24.6, making the current valuation very pricey on a historical basis.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b3bb48fc1b4ed571a9b496e941bcd7df\" tg-width=\"626\" tg-height=\"470\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>On a price-to-sales metric, the stock has only been more expensive one other time, which was in the late 1990s and early 2000s during the dot.com mania. This could really leave an investor feeling confused, with an extremely high valuation for a sales multiple, and while the PE ratio is high, but tolerable. However, the price-to-sales metric is essentially off the charts at current levels.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51420f64c4723e67897f0b9f1f1e9704\" tg-width=\"626\" tg-height=\"470\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Options Outlook</b></p>\n<p>Still, the questionably high valuation isn't stopping the options market from being very bullish on the stock. Perhaps that is because of the stock's momentum behind it since the start of the pandemic. On August 18, the open interest for the November 19 $315 calls rose by around 20,000 contracts. The data shows the call options were bought for roughly $4.50 to $4.75 per contract. It implies that the stock is trading at $319.75 or higher by the expiration date, a gain of around 9.1% from its closing price on August 17. It is a massively bullish bet as well, with premiums paid off roughly $9.5 million.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7029da5552d3abe13f25ed926ee79b19\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"427\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Technicals Support A Move Higher</b></p>\n<p>From a technical perspective, the stock may have further to climb after breaking out of a bullish flag pattern when it rose above resistance at $290.

There are now signs the stock's advance may not be over, with bigger gains to come. The stock could be heading to around $320 to $325 over the next couple of months, nearly 10% to 15% higher than its price of roughly $293 on August 17, based on an analysis of the options market and technical charts.\nThe positive outlook for the stock comes despite the shares trading at a lofty valuation, just as earnings growth is expected to slow dramatically. It leaves investors in an awkward spot, wondering if they should continue to chase the stock higher just as year-over-year comparables get harder. But the reality of slowing growth may not hit until the company reports its next round of results in late October, giving the shares a path higher over the next couple of months.\nSlower Growth\nEarnings growth for Microsoft is expected to slip going forward, rising by 8.8% in the fiscal year 2022 from 39.7% in fiscal 2021. It is forecast to accelerate in the fiscal year 2023, but only to 14.3%, which is still slower than its earnings growth of 22.4% and 21.3% in 2019 and 2020. Additionally, growth rates over the next four quarters are expected to decelerate, dropping to 7.5% by the fourth quarter from 13.5% in the fiscal first quarter.\nThe slowing growth rate presents the biggest problem for the stock because it currently trades at 29.3 times 2023 earnings estimates. This is not a cheap valuation for Microsoft. In fact, over the past 5 years, the stock has averaged a PE ratio of just 24.6, making the current valuation very pricey on a historical basis.\n\nOn a price-to-sales metric, the stock has only been more expensive one other time, which was in the late 1990s and early 2000s during the dot.com mania. This could really leave an investor feeling confused, with an extremely high valuation for a sales multiple, and while the PE ratio is high, but tolerable. However, the price-to-sales metric is essentially off the charts at current levels.\n\nOptions Outlook\nStill, the questionably high valuation isn't stopping the options market from being very bullish on the stock. Perhaps that is because of the stock's momentum behind it since the start of the pandemic. On August 18, the open interest for the November 19 $315 calls rose by around 20,000 contracts. The data shows the call options were bought for roughly $4.50 to $4.75 per contract. It implies that the stock is trading at $319.75 or higher by the expiration date, a gain of around 9.1% from its closing price on August 17. It is a massively bullish bet as well, with premiums paid off roughly $9.5 million.\n\nTechnicals Support A Move Higher\nFrom a technical perspective, the stock may have further to climb after breaking out of a bullish flag pattern when it rose above resistance at $290. The pattern formed starting around June 4 and a projection of the move off of that starting pointing suggests the stock rises to around $327 over the next few months a gain of about 15%, which is roughly in line with the bullish options bet placed.\nThe one concern here is that this could prove to be the final push higher for Microsoft, as there is a bearish divergence currently forming between the stock's price and the momentum indicators. The relative strength index and the MACD are slowly trending lower, and this would indicate that momentum in the stock is now waning and bearish momentum is taking hold.\n\nThe current options and technical setup would suggest the stock is likely to flourish for some time longer, while the fundamentals would suggest the valuation is stretched. Overall, it seems to give Microsoft a path higher at least until the next round of earnings, which is likely not to come until sometime in late October.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":57,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9018786924,"gmtCreate":1649089439093,"gmtModify":1676534448974,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Headwind ahead","listText":"Headwind ahead","text":"Headwind ahead","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9018786924","repostId":"2224816375","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2224816375","pubTimestamp":1649084638,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2224816375?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-04 23:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Don't Let This 1 Decision Sour You on Sea Limited","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2224816375","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Robust execution and a large market opportunity position Sea for long-term success.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The past six months have been a turbulent ride for investors in <b>Sea Limited</b>, a mobile gaming and e-commerce company -- shares of Sea are down over 60% from the all-time high recorded in Nov. 2021.

The company established its roots in Southeast Asia and quickly emerged into a global player, extending its presence into South America and Europe.</p><p>Its global expansion seemed to be going well, but on March 6, Sea announced that it was closing its Shopee business in France, which was a surprise for investors but largely viewed as a mere blip in the long-term plan. The news that really raised investors' eyebrows came on March 28 when Sea announced it is pulling the curtains on its e-commerce operations in India.</p><p>Why would Sea exit potentially <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the largest markets in the world and derail its growth prospects? In the backdrop of its recent stock performance -- and the growing uncertainty around the economic environment with rising inflation and a major war -- many investors may be losing faith in the company.</p><h2>Digging deeper may offer some clues</h2><p>The seeds of Sea's exit from India may have been sown around Feb. 2022. The Indian government, citing national security and user data privacy concerns, banned 54 Chinese mobile apps. This ban included <i>Free Fire</i>, Garena's wildly popular battle royale mobile game. The immediate question from many familiar with Sea was: Why was <i>Free Fire</i> banned, when Sea is a Singaporean company, not a Chinese one.</p><p>One likely reason is that <b>Tencent Holdings</b>, the Chinese entertainment giant, has an 18.7% stake in Sea. That relationship likely raised enough red flags for the Indian government. It is interesting to note regulators permitted <i>Free Fire Max</i>, the premium version of <i>Free Fire</i>, to continue operations in India.</p><p>So how does the above event lead to Sea's India exit for Shopee? <i>Free Fire</i> is at the center of Sea's playbook of international expansion -- the company attracts a large user base with its engrossing video game, learns about users' online habits, and creates opportunities to promote its e-commerce and digital payment services. Additionally, Garena designed <i>Free Fire</i> to run flawlessly even on low-end smartphones, ensuring the game can reach the majority of the population in developing countries.</p><p><i>Free Fire Max</i> doesn't have the same reach as it requires mobile phones with higher-end configurations. Not having <i>Free Fire</i> to lay the foundation in India threw a wrench in Sea's proven formula for expansion.</p><p>Finally, no one knows how the political situation between India and China may unfold. India may not ban Shopee today, but that doesn't mean it won't do so in the future. For Shopee to succeed in this highly competitive market, it would need to invest significantly, and the risk underlying that investment is simply too high. All factors considered, Sea's move to shutter its e-commerce operation in India looks like a smart and proactive business decision.</p><h2>Robust execution and long runway bode well</h2><p>Sea's founder and CEO Forrest Li has led the company brilliantly. Gamers now enjoy <i>Free Fire</i> in over 130 countries as Shopee launched in four countries in Latin America, three countries in Europe, and in China -- all in the past two and a half years. <i>Free Fire</i> has been the highest-grossing mobile app for 10 consecutive quarters in Southeast Asia and Latin America, according to data.ai. Sea's total revenue grew a whopping 128% in 2021 to reach $10 billion. Gross profits for the same period increased 189% to $3.9 billion.</p><p>The company is investing heavily to expand into new markets, and as a result, net losses also grew 26% during the year to $2.0 billion. However, Li believes that by 2025, the cash generated by Shopee and Sea Money, the primary beneficiaries of Sea's investments, collectively will enable these two businesses to substantially self-fund their own long-term growth.</p><p>The global opportunity for Sea remains large. Southeast Asia, Sea's core market, is one of the world's fastest-growing regions with a population rising over 50% faster than the United States' and a GDP increasing more than twice as quickly. An expanding middle-class, rising average household incomes, and rapidly spreading cellphone and internet usage are creating more shoppers in the seven Southeast Asian countries where Sea operates.</p><p>The company is also gaining major traction in Brazil, the sixth-largest country by population. Shopee Brazil recorded more than 140 million orders in the fourth quarter, growing at close to 400% year over year. The company is also making headways in other South American countries.</p><p>Despite shutting down its e-commerce operation in India, Sea is projecting Shopee's revenue to grow 76% in 2022, while Sea Money grows 155%. These are very impressive numbers that underscore Sea's global scale and its ability to overcome hurdles in its growth trajectory.</p><h2>Now may be a good time to board the ship</h2><p>Management is forecasting a decline in bookings for Garena this year, which is understandable as the company faces the near-term headwinds of reopening economies across the world and <i>Free Fire</i>'s ban in India. But Li remains aspirational and focused on the long-term prospects of the company.</p><p>Responding to the over 65% drop in the company's share price, Li assured employees in an email: "Do not fear: we are in a strong position internally, and we are clear on our next steps. This is short-term pain that we have to endure to truly <i>maximise our long-term potential</i>." Lee went on to say: "The scale of our ambition remains unchanged: to make a long-lasting mark in history."</p><p>Sea has successfully entered multiple international markets. The company is carefully assessing its opportunity in each region and making shrewd decisions to either expand or exit those markets. Sea's strategy of <i>failing fast</i> leads to efficient capital allocation for the company and bodes well for its future. It is still executing well, and despite its exit from India has a long runway in front of it.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a51ad9bb122e14425e4fa9b19c3f402\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts.</p><p>As a result of the sell-off, shares are trading at a three-year low price-to-sales valuation of 6.6 as of this writing.

But Li remains aspirational and focused on the long-term prospects of the company.Responding to the over 65% drop in the company's share price, Li assured employees in an email: \"Do not fear: we are in a strong position internally, and we are clear on our next steps. This is short-term pain that we have to endure to truly maximise our long-term potential.\" Lee went on to say: \"The scale of our ambition remains unchanged: to make a long-lasting mark in history.\"Sea has successfully entered multiple international markets. The company is carefully assessing its opportunity in each region and making shrewd decisions to either expand or exit those markets. Sea's strategy of failing fast leads to efficient capital allocation for the company and bodes well for its future. It is still executing well, and despite its exit from India has a long runway in front of it.Data by YCharts.As a result of the sell-off, shares are trading at a three-year low price-to-sales valuation of 6.6 as of this writing. Taking a small position in Sea should serve patient investors with a long-term focus very well.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":98,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9035726677,"gmtCreate":1647696022921,"gmtModify":1676534258999,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Not sure how many are optimistic like writer","listText":"Not sure how many are optimistic like writer","text":"Not sure how many are optimistic like writer","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9035726677","repostId":"2220777059","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2220777059","pubTimestamp":1647653153,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2220777059?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-19 09:25","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Sea Limited: The Three-Headed Monster","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2220777059","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryGarena, Sea’s only profitable segment, serves as a lifeline for its other two segments, but B","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Garena, Sea’s only profitable segment, serves as a lifeline for its other two segments, but Bookings are expected to fall sharply in FY2022.</li><li>In addition, Shopee's losses are widening.

Today, I'm doing a deep dive on the three-headed monster (and each of its heads) to see if the company is a good investment opportunity at these levels. Let's get started!</p><p><b>Investment Thesis</b></p><p>Sea is at the forefront of the internet revolution in developing regions. This had many investors buying into the growth story of the company, sending shares soaring high into the sun for the better part of 2020 and 2021. However, the stock has cratered back to sea amid concerns about the company's slowing growth, especially for its only cash cow, Garena. To make matters worse, Shopee's losses are also getting worse.</p><p>The Group's cash burn rate is still high, estimated to be $(3.6) billion in FY2022. With a net cash position of $5.9 billion, future capital raises are very likely.</p><p>On the bright side, Sea still has a long growth runway ahead, solidified by its leadership positions in Southeast Asia and Latin America. SeaMoney, although still unprofitable, could also emerge as Sea's second cash cow.</p><p>Despite unprofitability and competitive risks, Sea has strong competitive moats and it is trading at the cheapest valuation multiples since its IPO.</p><p>The three-headed monster is a Buy at these levels.</p><p><b>Value Proposition</b></p><p>Founded in Singapore in 2009, Sea has grown to become the leading consumer internet company in the world, with a substantial presence in the Southeast Asian region.</p><blockquote><b>Mission</b>: To better the lives of consumers and small businesses with technology.</blockquote><p>Sea is a holding company for three core businesses: Garena, Shopee, and SeaMoney. Sea's main value proposition is providing a vertically-integrated experience through its different core businesses.</p><p><b>Garena</b></p><p>Its digital entertainment division, Garena, was Sea's first business venture. In fact, Sea was originally named Garena Interactive Holding Limited before changing its name to Sea Limited in 2017.</p><p>Garena is one of the largest online games developers and publishers, releasing some of the most successful mobile and PC games over the last decade. For example, Garena's Free Fire, its self-developed mobile battle royale game, topped the global download charts for the last three years. According to data.ai, Free Fire also ranked second globally by average monthly active users on Google Play in 2021. In Southeast Asia and Latin America, Free Fire was the highest-grossing mobile game for ten consecutive quarters, and in the US for four consecutive quarters. Based on Sensor <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWR.AU\">Tower</a>'s findings, Free Fire still holds the most downloads globally as of January 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa392753c19f14d60ee0d992e58c3d2f\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"741\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: SensorTower</span></p><p>Garena also exclusively licenses and publishes games from global partners and third-party developers. Some of these partners include Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY), Activision (ATVI), and Arumgames. Games like Speed Drifters, Arena of Valor, and Fantasy Town fall into this category as they are co-developed with partners or licensed from partners.</p><p>In addition, Garena organizes some of the largest e-sports events from local tournaments to professional competitions at a global level. Moreover, Garena offers other entertainment content such as live-streaming, user chat, and online forums.</p><p><b>Shopee</b></p><p>Perhaps the most exciting business segment is Sea's mobile-centric e-commerce platform, Shopee. Launched in 2015, Shopee is now one of the fastest-growing e-commerce marketplaces with a strong presence in Southeast Asia, as well as growing recognition in Latin America and some European countries.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6649de846b2942b928a3f3e5d4035003\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"200\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Shopee</span></p><p>Through the Shopee platform, buyers can purchase items from sellers which are primarily small and medium businesses (or mom-and-pop stores). At the same time, larger, more established retailers like Xiaomi (OTCPK:XIACF), Microsoft (MSFT), or Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) can leverage Shopee's two premium shopping platforms, Shopee Mall and Shopee Premium.</p><p>Along with Shopee's e-commerce marketplace, Shopee also offers adjacent products and services for both buyers and sellers:</p><ul><li><b>Service by Shopee</b> - Value-added services for sellers such as integrated payment, logistics, fulfillment, seller support, inventory management, and online store operations.</li><li><b>BuyerProtection</b> - Consumer protection policies and procedures including seller verification, product listing screening, and dispute resolution. In addition, Shopee Guarantee reduces settlement risks by holding customers' funds in a separate account until delivery is complete, where funds will be released to buyers.</li><li><b>Integrated Logistics Services</b>- Shopee partners with various local and regional third-party logistics service providers to provide a seamless last-mile delivery experience for both buyers and sellers. Shopee also has its own delivery service called Shopee Xpress.</li><li><b>Social Features</b> - Shopee also offers other social and gamification features, including Shopee Coins (virtual currency), Shopee Live (livestream), Shopee Games (in-app games), and Shopee Feed (similar to Instagram).</li><li><b>On-demand Services</b>- Shopee also recently launched on-demand services such as ShopeeFood, instant delivery, and groceries, competing directly with Grab (GRAB), Gojek, and Uber (UBER).</li></ul><p>Shopee's scale is unmatched and it is still growing at an unprecedented pace. According to data.ai, Shopee in Southeast Asia and Taiwan ranked first in average monthly active users and total time spent in the app in 2021. Shopee Indonesia, arguably Shopee's most important market, ranked first in the Shopping category. Shopee Brazil, which launched in October 2019, was also ranked first in the Shopping category. And globally, Shopee ranked first in the Shopping category, and is the #13 most downloaded app regardless of category, logging in 200+ million downloads in 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f9c550b140720336e00cc78e954d184\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: SensorTower</span></p><p><b>SeaMoney</b></p><p>SeaMoney was launched in 2014 and is now one of the leading digital financial services providers in Sea's operating countries. SeaMoney offers mobile wallet services, payment processing, credit, and other digital financial services. These services are offered under SeaMoney's various brands including AirPay, ShopeePay, SPayLater, and other local brands depending on the country. SeaMoney was initially launched in Vietnam and Thailand but has since expanded to other regions.</p><p>Through SeaMoney's mobile wallet offerings, consumers and merchants have added flexibility in terms of payment options, whether through online or offline means. The launch of SPayLater, which is basically a "buy now pay later" payment option, enables consumers to purchase items without accessing credit. For those who are interested, I've written a deep dive on Affirm (AFRM) where I discuss the main value propositions that BNPL provides.</p><p>SeaMoney has obtained bank licenses and government approvals to provide financial services in various countries. For example, Sea acquired Bank Kesejahteraan Ekonomi in Indonesia back in early 2021 as a push towards offering a digital banking solution. The company is now rebranded to SeaBank, which currently offers a high-yield savings account and virtual account.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c85c862195f86fe9d4f0f8c8beced6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: SeaBank Website</span></p><p>SeaMoney's main value proposition lies in offering a mobile wallet and payment solutions that are integrated with Sea's other businesses, namely Garena and Shopee, enabling consumers and merchants to transact seamlessly in one vertically-integrated platform.</p><p><b>Market Opportunity</b></p><p>Sea's market opportunity is predicated around the industry outlook of each of its business segments: mobile gaming, e-commerce, and fintech. Let's take a look at each industry that Sea operates in.</p><p>First, we have the mobile gaming industry. According to data.ai, Mobile Game Consumer Spend grew from $74 billion in 2018 to $116 billion in 2021, while Mobile Game Downloads grew from 63 billion in 2018 to 83 billion in 2021. Among the Top Genres by Downloads were Hypercasual games such as Hair Challenge and Water Sort Puzzle. However, the Top Genres by Consumer Spend belong to the Strategy, RPG, and Shooting categories where Garena specializes in. For example, Free Fire was the top Shooting game by revenue in Thailand, Brazil, Mexico, and the US, in 2021. Globally, however, it is still behind PUBG Mobile, which generates the bulk of its revenue from China.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f72bda6df6bc2b7bdf8756d218f53185\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: SensorTower</span></p><p>According to Adjust, the mobile gaming industry is expected to reach $272 billion by 2030, which is about 1.5x of 2021's total figure. Given Garena's successes in monetizing its games, Garena should continue to enjoy gaming tailwinds in the foreseeable future, provided that its games remain in trend. This is also supported by Unity's findings that the APAC region is the fastest-growing regional market, a market that Garena dominates in.</p><p>Moving on to e-commerce, we all know that e-commerce is growing rapidly and that its market share as a whole will continue to trend up from here. This is especially true for the Southeast Asian region where internet and smartphone adoption continues to increase by the day. Based on the e-Conomy SEA report, Southeast Asia now has 440 million internet users, up from 360 million in 2019. Its total population is about 589 million.</p><p>Internet Gross Merchandise Value, or GMV, for the region was $170 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $360 billion by 2025 with e-commerce leading the charge. The shift to e-commerce is not only happening on the consumer side but also on the merchant side. Digital marketing tools, analytical tools, and digital payment solutions have accelerated business for merchants. Shopee's vertically-integrated platform also makes it easy for merchants in these developing countries to set up shop, distribute goods, and accept payments in a single platform.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2fcb903aed7c0ec901fc83c4f25f18b8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: e-Conomy SEA 2021</span></p><p>Furthermore, Sea has recently expanded its e-commerce operations to other regions such as Latin America and Europe, which further expands its market opportunity.</p><p>Lastly, we have the fintech industry pertaining to SeaMoney. In my <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a> (PYPL) deep dive, I discussed the growth of mobile wallets as a payment method in both online and offline transactions. The shift to a cashless and cardless society is inevitable and that is also true for Sea's markets.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47ec896a6208b6023ae89f654704bbc7\" tg-width=\"1261\" tg-height=\"706\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Ark Invest Big Ideas 2022</span></p><p>As you can see below, mobile wallets continue to gain traction in Southeast Asia. In addition, 92% of digital merchants intend to maintain usage or increase usage of digital payments in the next 1 to 2 years. ShopeePay and SeaMoney's other brands will benefit from this trend. Also of important note, SeaMoney's expansion to buy now pay later with SPayLater will be a key GMV and revenue driver for the segment. These are the reasons why some investors are so bullish on SeaMoney and why SeaMoney is a monster lurking in the shadows.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0eb814b800c3121e3fb8cd0913f239d5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: e-Conomy SEA 2021</span></p><p>As you can see, Sea is at the forefront of three megatrends which should propel the business forward from here. Also, combining the different verticals in the same platform would present a significant synergistic opportunity as Sea establishes itself as a SuperApp in the making.</p><p><b>Revenue Model</b></p><p>As mentioned previously, Sea operates three main business segments.</p><p><b>Digital Entertainment</b></p><p>Garena operates a freemium model whereby users can download and play games for free. The company generates revenue by selling in-game virtual items such as clothing, weaponry, or equipment.</p><p>Investors should take note of how revenue is recognized for this segment. According to Sea's 10-K:</p><blockquote>Proceeds from these sales are initially recognized as “Advances from customers” and subsequently reclassified to “Deferred revenue” when the users make in-game purchases of the virtual currencies or virtual items within the games operated by the Company and the in-game purchases are no longer refundable.</blockquote><p>Garena also licenses games from other game developers. Revenue is generated based on revenue-sharing/royalty agreements with these developers. Revenue is recognized over the performance obligation period.</p><blockquote>Such delivery obligation period is determined in accordance with the estimated average lifespan of the virtual goods sold or estimated average lifespan of the paying users of the said games or similar games.</blockquote><p><b>E-commerce</b></p><p>Shopee generates revenue through a marketplace model. Sellers on the platform pay Shopee based on paid advertisement services, transaction-based fees, logistics services, and other value-added services.</p><p>Shopee also generates revenue from goods sold directly by Shopee, which the company purchases in bulk from manufacturers or third-party suppliers.</p><p><b>Digital Financial Services</b></p><p>SeaMoney revenue consists of:</p><ul><li>Interest and fees from loans granted to commercial customers</li><li>Interest and fees from Sea's consumer credit business such as SPayLater</li><li>Commissions charged to merchants when a customer pays using SeaMoney's mobile wallet</li></ul><p><b>Income Statement</b></p><p>Let's analyze each of the business segments and then look at the entire Group as a whole.</p><p><b>Digital Entertainment</b></p><p>Garena Revenue saw a 104% increase YoY in Q4. For the full year, Garena Revenue was up 114% YoY.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/998dfbcf3f3dba11b8f8722710c36ba4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The rapid increase in Revenue was primarily due to recognition of accumulated deferred revenue from previous quarters. Bookings—which is essentially GAAP Revenue plus the change in digital entertainment deferred revenue —actually dropped for the first time QoQ and it is now lower than Revenue. This means that gamers are spending less on in-virtual items which will lead to lower Revenue recognized in subsequent quarters. As you can see, Bookings is in a massive deceleration.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e06de5e6066b66cd5596a445cd912c98\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The drop in Bookings was due to fewer gamers in the platform as the economy reopens and people spend more time outdoors, at school, or in the office. Quarterly Active Users, or QAUs, grew only 7% in Q4 to 652 million, compared to Q3's QAUs of 729 million.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5bdd570a9eb859a9fef8569c9fad10a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>As a result, Quarterly Paying Users, or QPUs, decelerated as well, which led to lower Bookings. Q4 QPUs was 77 million compared to Q3's 93 million.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/092c4a2f47b9336f2753b4548707b39f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The markets reacted negatively to this slowdown in Garena growth as the gaming business acts as the lifeline for Sea's two other segments. As you can see, Garena is a high-margin business, producing Adjusted EBITDA of $2.7 billion in FY2021. Operating Margin is very high at 61% in Q4. AEBITDA margin, on the other hand, is trending downwards as QoQ adds in Bookings wither.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f28c9f35ee55afb5c7d170a80d26ebf2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>As such, the slowdown in growth for Garena is scaring investors away as it may not provide sufficient cash flow to fund the continued growth of Shopee and SeaMoney.</p><p><b>E-Commerce</b></p><p>Shopee GMV continues its upward march as e-commerce continues to gain traction in Shopee's existing and newer markets. However, we're also seeing a deceleration in growth due to tough YoY comps. GMV in FY2021 was $62.5 billion, an increase of 77%.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f657f7cacc9e00bc57df0e913fdb9ae\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>GMV growth was also due to an increase in Orders in the Shopee platform, which totaled 6.1 billion in FY2021, an increase of 117%. Average Order Value, or AOV, however, is trending downwards. This may be perceived negatively as processing more lower-AOV orders meant higher logistical expenses and thus lower margins per order.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5fbc7f044de03ec379f262a5bfcdf331\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The increase in GMV translated to higher Shopee Revenue, which grew faster than GMV. Shopee Revenue grew 136% to $5.1 billion in FY2021, as compared to GMV growth of 77%.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/27710dc2140a6d139900819f51bd688a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The faster growth in Revenue was due to Shopee's increasing take rate, which displays Shopee's ability to monetize its marketplace platform. This is one of the only few positive developments coming out of the most recent earnings update.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e4267bc5d33a2153e8624f73ed71540\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Despite the improving Revenue and take rate, Shopee is still suffering huge losses and it is mounting with each subsequent quarter, primarily due to the company expanding into new markets. FY2021 Shopee AEBITDA was $(2.6) billion at a -50% margin. Recall that Garena AEBITDA was $2.7 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9d27cef61bc9a9058233f7eccc5eaa1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>AEBITDA per Order has been improving, although it flat-lined in the last few quarters. Again, this is due to the company aggressively expanding into new markets. For example, in Q4, Shopee Brazil recorded 140+ million gross orders with a $70+ million Revenue, up 400% and 326%, respectively. However, AEBITDA per Order in Brazil is still negative at $(2) per Order, despite being a 40% improvement from last year. As such, it is still a far cry from the overall AEBITDA per Order of $(0.45).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0c0d6aa930a81ea4fc153b7134dbf9d3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>On the bright side, in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, Q4 AEBITDA per Order before "allocation of the headquarters’ common expenses" was $(0.15), an improvement from last year's $(0.21). This shows that there is certainly hope for Shopee to be AEBITDA positive soon, which management has pointed out during the Q4 earnings call:</p><blockquote>We currently expect Shopee to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA before HQ cost allocation in Southeast Asia and Taiwan by this year. We also expect SeaMoney to achieve positive cash flow by next year. As a result, we currently expect that by 2025 cash generated by Shopee and SeaMoney proactively will enable these two businesses to substantially self-fund their own long-term growth.</blockquote><p><b>Digital Financial Services</b></p><p>SeaMoney's Mobile Wallet Total Payment Volume grew 120% YoY to $17.2 billion in FY2021 due to the increasing adoption of mobile wallets in the region.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4fa5ef6efa513d9040963fda42b4b9f2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The growth in TPV was largely driven by the growth in QAUs. As shown below, the total ending QAUs in Q4 grew 90% YoY to 45.8 million users.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9397aec066366f40ec92c24187347a44\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The real exciting part is that Revenue grew much faster than TPV and QAUs. SeaMoney Revenue is growing at a blistering pace, locking in high triple-digit growth rates over the last few years. FY2021 SeaMoney Revenue was $470 million, which is an increase of 673% from the previous year. This is due to take rates increasing from less than 1% in FY2020 to almost 4% by the end of the latest quarter.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcaf6046cf3c27e00b233a8428eb2d75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Furthermore, in Indonesia, over 20% of the QAUs have used more than one SeaMoney product or service, which includes credit services, digital banking, and insurance. As SeaMoney introduces more offerings, revenue should accelerate meaningfully as average revenue per user increases when people use additional products.</p><p>As SeaMoney continues to gain scale, the segment will enjoy better unit economics. As shown below, while SeaMoney's AEBITDA is still in deeply negative territories, AEBITDA Margins has continued to trend towards profitability. Management also expects SeaMoney to be cash flow positive by next year.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51f0d5a1800fef748694417e8cb8fc9f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>This is the segment that investors should pay special attention to, given that it has the potential to be Sea's second cash cow. For example, PayPal has Operating Margins of 20%+, which could be SeaMoney's long-term margin profile.</p><p><b>Group</b></p><p>With that said, let's take a look at how the business is doing as a whole.</p><p>FY2021 Revenue was $10.0 billion, an increase of 128% YoY. Due to the law of large numbers and tough YoY comps, Revenue growth should decelerate from here.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38de60bd773f3ef7afc4b2e28aa1c08f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Here, we can see how Revenue is distributed across the different segments.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a86e59478db8a3a4fdc85897f24410e9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>What's encouraging is that Gross Profit Margins continue to trend upwards as the company gains economies of scale, even accounting for Shopee's aggressive expansion into new markets. FY2021 Gross Profit was $3.9 billion, up 189% YoY.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dd978ba4047cc6e20ac6086ba8420a8f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Operating Expenses, however, remain elevated as management forgoes short-term profitability for long-term market dominance. FY2021 Total Operating Expenses were $5.5 billion. Below shows the different components of Operating Expenses as a percentage of Revenue.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fbdbde2c2ae744f36f8168ed32f94d62\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Most of the Operating Expenses were used for Sales & Marketing purposes. Unsurprisingly, Shopee had the highest S&M burn rate. Discounts, cashback, celebrity promotions... they're everywhere.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5253f186120da17c4cd901e5c442bd1e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>As a result, Operating Profit Margins is still negative, although it is trending in the right direction.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a27b7833551107397c44acefc5ad2475\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>AEBITDA, on the other hand, is plunging. This is due to Garena's falling Bookings and Shoppe's widening losses. AEBITDA for FY2021 was $(594) million, compared to FY2020 positive AEBITDA of $107 million. This is probably the most concerning figure for investors as such a high cash burn rate is unsustainable, which may also lead to additional capital raises that are dilutive to shareholders.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d89fb95f74e23e85f8932870c0190bee\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>The guidance did not help either. Garena Bookings is expected to fall to just $3 billion, which is $1.3 billion lower than FY2021's number. Management blamed the reopening of the economy as well as the ban of Free Fire in India for the expected drop in Bookings. Assuming a modest 50% AEBITDA margin, Garena would bring in just $1.5 billion of AEBITDA for Sea in FY2022.</p><p>On the other side, the other two segments are expected to continue with their immense pace of growth — Shopee and SeaMoney are expected to grow by 76% and 155%, respectively. If we assume a (50)% AEBITDA margin for both segments, Shopee and SeaMoney is expected to burn a total of about $(5.1) billion of AEBITDA. Adding Garena's estimated AEBITDA of $1.5 billion, Sea, as a Group, is expected to burn $(3.6) billion in FY2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae5e9399a838e5f841dcccaffbe673d8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited FY2021 Q4 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>Because Garena is such an important piece of Shopee's and SeaMoney's growth story, a deceleration in Garena's business had investors reacting so negatively to Sea's latest earnings release, as now, the gaming business is incapable of covering the massive losses incurred by the other two business segments.</p><p><b>Balance Sheet</b></p><p>Sea's balance sheet position as of year-end FY2021 is at about $10.2 billion of Cash and Short Term Investments. While this may show that Sea has a substantial cushion against its short-term cash burn rate, its net cash position paints a different picture.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc30ee494abc2eda3b75434b96e4a66b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited FY2021 Q4 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>Adjusting for Sea's debt, Sea ended the year with a net cash position of around $5.9 billion. A substantial amount of its total debt comes from its recent issuance of 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026. The notes were issued when the stock was trading at $318 per share back in September and the initial conversion price is set at $477 per share. So, yes... conversion in the next 2 to 3 years is very unlikely.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d3d0030e6518cc4198245f624cc75e1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"437\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>With net cash of $5.9 billion and $(3.6) billion of estimated AEBITDA in FY2022, it won't be long before Sea requires another cash infusion. Therefore, if the high cash burn rate persists for the next 2 to 3 years, investors face a major risk of increasing financial leverage and/or dilution in the form of equity raises.</p><p><b>Cash Flow Statement</b></p><p>Here is what cash flow looks like over the last few quarters. Notice how Operating Cash Flow turned negative in the last quarter. Most of the cash also comes from Financing activities.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0aba061277a1410bb9f3dc176ea0115\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"263\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p>Unlike other high-flying growth companies, Sea's Share-Based Compensation expenses are relatively low.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81fa229682c8880d6edd35535ef6a747\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's Analysis</span></p><p><b>Competitive Moats</b></p><p>Based on my research and analysis, I identified three key competitive moats for Sea: brand, network effects, and barriers to entry. I used to think that Sea has cost advantages but as Garena becomes a smaller part of the overall business, and as losses continue to worsen, I have reason to believe that Sea no longer holds that moat.</p><p><b>Brand</b></p><p>As discussed in previous sections, Garena's games, particularly Free Fire, have consistently ranked as the most downloaded mobile game in the world. Additionally, the Shopee app has gained cross-border stardom and is now regarded as the most downloaded or fastest-trending shopping App in the countries it operates in. Lastly, SeaMoney is also gaining traction with banking licenses granted in various countries that should increase brand value and trust.</p><p><b>Network Effects</b></p><p>The sheer amount of app downloads leads to powerful network effects. Garena has 652 million QAUs, which is about 8% of the world's population. Shopee recorded 200+ million app downloads in FY2021 alone. SeaMoney QAUs topped 45.8 million in Q4 and it is still in the early stages of adoption.</p><p>With all these users in the Sea platform, cross-selling new products or services should be easier as Sea continues to scale. One such example is Shopee Brazil and Free Fire where each platform is encouraging consumers to use the other. As Sea continues to innovate and offer better experiences for its customers, the ecosystem gets bigger and tighter, leading to powerful network effects.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c641ac08707cc868b9e6004e2deaf950\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"600\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Shopee Brazil</span></p><p><b>Barriers To Entry</b></p><p>I believe each of Sea's core businesses is operating in a winner-takes-most environment with high barriers to entry.</p><p>The mobile gaming environment requires the most talented developers to launch blockbuster games. Garena's Free Fire is certainly a blockbuster game and time in Free Fire's game means time away from other mobile games.</p><p>Just like how Amazon (AMZN) dominates in the US, the e-commerce landscape in Southeast Asia and Latin America is dominated by a few players, such as Shopee, Tokopedia, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MELI\">MercadoLibre</a> (MELI). The scale and unit economics that these players have achieved makes it unsustainable for new entrants to compete with them.</p><p>Banking and fintech is also a highly-regulated environment. Furthermore, consumers prefer to have just one mobile wallet, such as ShopeePay, as opposed to owning several different fintech applications.</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>Based on my sum-of-the-parts and comparable company valuation analysis, Sea looks to be slightly undervalued with 19% upside potential. Of course, comparables are not perfect but based on this, we can gauge where Sea stands among peers.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2400cd917e5f6ce8c47ef74a8062093\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"353\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Author's Analysis</span></p><p>On the flip side, Sea looks extremely cheap on a historical basis. In terms of EV/Sales, Sea is trading at the lowest valuation since its IPO, trading at just 4.2x forward sales.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bed1fd805a89523bbb8fa982bee40079\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"427\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Koyfin</span></p><p>In terms of EV/Gross Profit, Sea is trading even cheaper than its March 2020 lows.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fdf589a808c84131e9c36aa7b65a5129\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"427\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Koyfin</span></p><p>The valuation compression is warranted given that the company flew too close to the sun and now it is cratering back to the sea — not just for Sea, but almost all growth stocks took a beating. Growth is also slowing down and the macroeconomic environment looks gloomier than ever. However, this is not the end of the world; I think the markets are overreacting. Diversion from the mean goes both ways — perhaps, current prices present a good margin of safety for long-term investors.</p><p><b>Catalysts</b></p><ul><li><b>Successful International Expansion</b> — Shopee has been successful in replicating its playbook from Southeast Asia to Brazil. Recently, Shopee launched operations in India, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Argentina, Poland, and Spain. If Shopee can take substantial market share in these new regions, Shopee's growth could turn exponential.</li><li><b>The Metaverse</b> — Sea's withering gaming division needs to be revitalized. New games and features could definitely provide the boost that it needs. For example, the metaverse is an exciting opportunity and Garena could introduce this concept to its 600+ million QAUs. Sea AI Lab (SAIL) and Sea Capital are two ventures that could accelerate the company into emerging industries, including the metaverse.</li></ul><blockquote>We will continue to encourage user-generated content by enhancing greater features and accessibility. We believe that a strong user reception to Craftland is a positive indicator of the initial success to encourage user participation in content creation and to build Free Fire into an increasingly open platform and is well aligned with major emerging industry trends such as metaverse.</blockquote><ul><li><b>Regional SuperApp</b> — Although this concept has yet to be discussed by management, launching a regional SuperApp could enhance user engagement to new levels. For example, imagine Shopee users being able to play games, shop, order food delivery, pay for services, transfer money, invest, all under one app. Imagine users being able to convert their deposited funds in ShopeePay, into ShopeeCoins, and use it to perform cross-border transactions.</li><li><b>Continued Growth In SeaMoney</b> — SeaMoney is still in its early stages and continued adoption of Sea's digital financial services offerings will be a strong addition to Sea's bull thesis. SPayLater has real potential to disrupt the consumer credit industry. SeaBank and ShopeePay have the opportunity to capture digital wallet, digital banking, and cashless society trends.</li><li><b>Free Fire India Ban Lift</b>— Garena's weak guidance factored in the headwinds coming from the ban in India. If the ban is lifted, the stock may react positively as much of Sea's cash burn problems may be eliminated.</li></ul><p><b>Risks</b></p><ul><li><b>The Pressure to Launch Blockbuster Games</b>— There will come a time when Free Fire will be dethroned as the most-played and most-downloaded game. That is just how the gaming business works. This puts a substantial risk on the cash flow generation potential of Garena. Launching blockbuster games is never easy and it requires many trials and errors along the way. For me, I would like to see Garena shift to a gaming franchise model where the company launches an updated version of an existing game every year or two, which presents a more stable and recurring revenue stream for the company. An example would be FIFA or Call of Duty.</li><li><b>Shopee India Ban</b> — With Free Fire banned in India, there's also the potential for Shoppe to be banned as well.</li><li><b>Failure to Gain Traction in International Markets</b>— Shopee pulled out of France in early March, an indication that Shoppe's business model is not replicable in other countries, especially in more developed regions. Shopee Poland and Spain may be next on the exit list as they hold a close resemblance to France.</li><li><b>Geopolitical Risks</b>— Tencent, a Chinese company, has an 18.7% equity stake in Sea. Sanctions, bans, and other restrictions on Chinese companies, given the current geopolitical environment, could spell trouble for Sea. Tencent may have to cut exposure on Sea or even dissolve its developing-publishing partnership with Garena.</li><li><b>Local Competition</b>— Local champions operating in their respective markets cannot be ignored. These include GoTo in Indonesia, MercadoLibre in Latin America, and Flipkart in India.</li></ul><p>In addition, there's a certain level of pride for consumers to see their native-born companies succeed. I'm Indonesian, and it makes me really happy to see GoTo grow and grow.</p><p>GoTo, the holding company of both Indonesian tech darlings Gojek and Tokopedia, recently announced its plan to IPO in the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Here's a glance of GoTo's stats for the 12-months ended 30 September 2021:</p><ul><li>Valuation: $26.2 billion to $28.8 billion</li><li>GMV: $28.8 billion</li><li>Revenue: $1 billion</li><li>Gross Orders: 2 billion</li><li>Annual Transacting Users: 55 million</li><li>Driver Partners: 2.5 million</li><li>Merchants: 14 million</li></ul><p>The point is that there are big-time local players operating in Sea's markets that investors should never ignore. Here's a little snippet from my previous Shopee article:</p><blockquote>But with the GoTo merger, Indonesia could potentially extinguish the orange flame that charred its forest for many years. Now, GoTo could finally reclaim a good chunk of its territory that was lost to waves of competition, especially from Shopee. GoTo could finally gain more ground as the roots grew even stronger with the merger, fertilized with the synergies of value propositions, logistics, payments, and banking solutions.</blockquote><blockquote>Meanwhile, Sea Limited's stock continues to soar, ignoring the titan of an elephant in the room. And because of GoTo's integration, Shopee's vertically-integrated business model doesn't look like a strong competitive advantage anymore.</blockquote><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>Each of Sea's core businesses is in hypergrowth mode, propelled by megatrends in the mobile gaming, e-commerce, and fintech industry. Management understands these opportunities and therefore, is sacrificing short-term profitability for long-term market dominance. Despite being a larger business, Sea still has a massive growth runway ahead.</p><p>That is not to say that unprofitability and competition risks can and should be ignored. The biggest concern for investors is the company's unsustainable cash burn rate, which will likely lead to further capital raises in the near future.</p><p>Nonetheless, the long-term growth thesis for the three-headed monster remains intact. Strong brand, network effects, and barriers to entry moats should support the business going forward. In addition, shares of Sea are trading at the lowest valuation multiples ever, which presents a good margin of safety for an entry at these prices.</p><p>Thank you for reading my Sea Limited deep dive.

However, the e-commerce segment is expected to be self-funded by 2025. This is achievable as take rates are trending in the right direction.SeaMoney is also gaining traction at an unprecedented pace, a monster lurking in the shadows.

The stock is trading at the lowest multiple ever - it is worth a nibble at these prices.undefined undefined/iStock via Getty ImagesI've been following Sea Limited ADR (NYSE:SE) for quite some time now and the stock got me interested again given the recent 75% selloff. Today, I'm doing a deep dive on the three-headed monster (and each of its heads) to see if the company is a good investment opportunity at these levels. Let's get started!Investment ThesisSea is at the forefront of the internet revolution in developing regions. This had many investors buying into the growth story of the company, sending shares soaring high into the sun for the better part of 2020 and 2021. However, the stock has cratered back to sea amid concerns about the company's slowing growth, especially for its only cash cow, Garena. To make matters worse, Shopee's losses are also getting worse.The Group's cash burn rate is still high, estimated to be $(3.6) billion in FY2022. With a net cash position of $5.9 billion, future capital raises are very likely.On the bright side, Sea still has a long growth runway ahead, solidified by its leadership positions in Southeast Asia and Latin America. SeaMoney, although still unprofitable, could also emerge as Sea's second cash cow.Despite unprofitability and competitive risks, Sea has strong competitive moats and it is trading at the cheapest valuation multiples since its IPO.The three-headed monster is a Buy at these levels.Value PropositionFounded in Singapore in 2009, Sea has grown to become the leading consumer internet company in the world, with a substantial presence in the Southeast Asian region.Mission: To better the lives of consumers and small businesses with technology.Sea is a holding company for three core businesses: Garena, Shopee, and SeaMoney. Sea's main value proposition is providing a vertically-integrated experience through its different core businesses.GarenaIts digital entertainment division, Garena, was Sea's first business venture. In fact, Sea was originally named Garena Interactive Holding Limited before changing its name to Sea Limited in 2017.Garena is one of the largest online games developers and publishers, releasing some of the most successful mobile and PC games over the last decade. For example, Garena's Free Fire, its self-developed mobile battle royale game, topped the global download charts for the last three years. According to data.ai, Free Fire also ranked second globally by average monthly active users on Google Play in 2021. In Southeast Asia and Latin America, Free Fire was the highest-grossing mobile game for ten consecutive quarters, and in the US for four consecutive quarters. Based on Sensor Tower's findings, Free Fire still holds the most downloads globally as of January 2022.Source: SensorTowerGarena also exclusively licenses and publishes games from global partners and third-party developers. Some of these partners include Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY), Activision (ATVI), and Arumgames. Games like Speed Drifters, Arena of Valor, and Fantasy Town fall into this category as they are co-developed with partners or licensed from partners.In addition, Garena organizes some of the largest e-sports events from local tournaments to professional competitions at a global level. Moreover, Garena offers other entertainment content such as live-streaming, user chat, and online forums.ShopeePerhaps the most exciting business segment is Sea's mobile-centric e-commerce platform, Shopee. Launched in 2015, Shopee is now one of the fastest-growing e-commerce marketplaces with a strong presence in Southeast Asia, as well as growing recognition in Latin America and some European countries.Source: ShopeeThrough the Shopee platform, buyers can purchase items from sellers which are primarily small and medium businesses (or mom-and-pop stores). At the same time, larger, more established retailers like Xiaomi (OTCPK:XIACF), Microsoft (MSFT), or Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) can leverage Shopee's two premium shopping platforms, Shopee Mall and Shopee Premium.Along with Shopee's e-commerce marketplace, Shopee also offers adjacent products and services for both buyers and sellers:Service by Shopee - Value-added services for sellers such as integrated payment, logistics, fulfillment, seller support, inventory management, and online store operations.BuyerProtection - Consumer protection policies and procedures including seller verification, product listing screening, and dispute resolution. In addition, Shopee Guarantee reduces settlement risks by holding customers' funds in a separate account until delivery is complete, where funds will be released to buyers.Integrated Logistics Services- Shopee partners with various local and regional third-party logistics service providers to provide a seamless last-mile delivery experience for both buyers and sellers. Shopee also has its own delivery service called Shopee Xpress.Social Features - Shopee also offers other social and gamification features, including Shopee Coins (virtual currency), Shopee Live (livestream), Shopee Games (in-app games), and Shopee Feed (similar to Instagram).On-demand Services- Shopee also recently launched on-demand services such as ShopeeFood, instant delivery, and groceries, competing directly with Grab (GRAB), Gojek, and Uber (UBER).Shopee's scale is unmatched and it is still growing at an unprecedented pace. According to data.ai, Shopee in Southeast Asia and Taiwan ranked first in average monthly active users and total time spent in the app in 2021. Shopee Indonesia, arguably Shopee's most important market, ranked first in the Shopping category. Shopee Brazil, which launched in October 2019, was also ranked first in the Shopping category. And globally, Shopee ranked first in the Shopping category, and is the #13 most downloaded app regardless of category, logging in 200+ million downloads in 2021.Source: SensorTowerSeaMoneySeaMoney was launched in 2014 and is now one of the leading digital financial services providers in Sea's operating countries. SeaMoney offers mobile wallet services, payment processing, credit, and other digital financial services. These services are offered under SeaMoney's various brands including AirPay, ShopeePay, SPayLater, and other local brands depending on the country. SeaMoney was initially launched in Vietnam and Thailand but has since expanded to other regions.Through SeaMoney's mobile wallet offerings, consumers and merchants have added flexibility in terms of payment options, whether through online or offline means. The launch of SPayLater, which is basically a \"buy now pay later\" payment option, enables consumers to purchase items without accessing credit. For those who are interested, I've written a deep dive on Affirm (AFRM) where I discuss the main value propositions that BNPL provides.SeaMoney has obtained bank licenses and government approvals to provide financial services in various countries. For example, Sea acquired Bank Kesejahteraan Ekonomi in Indonesia back in early 2021 as a push towards offering a digital banking solution. The company is now rebranded to SeaBank, which currently offers a high-yield savings account and virtual account.Source: SeaBank WebsiteSeaMoney's main value proposition lies in offering a mobile wallet and payment solutions that are integrated with Sea's other businesses, namely Garena and Shopee, enabling consumers and merchants to transact seamlessly in one vertically-integrated platform.Market OpportunitySea's market opportunity is predicated around the industry outlook of each of its business segments: mobile gaming, e-commerce, and fintech. Let's take a look at each industry that Sea operates in.First, we have the mobile gaming industry. According to data.ai, Mobile Game Consumer Spend grew from $74 billion in 2018 to $116 billion in 2021, while Mobile Game Downloads grew from 63 billion in 2018 to 83 billion in 2021. Among the Top Genres by Downloads were Hypercasual games such as Hair Challenge and Water Sort Puzzle. However, the Top Genres by Consumer Spend belong to the Strategy, RPG, and Shooting categories where Garena specializes in. For example, Free Fire was the top Shooting game by revenue in Thailand, Brazil, Mexico, and the US, in 2021. Globally, however, it is still behind PUBG Mobile, which generates the bulk of its revenue from China.Source: SensorTowerAccording to Adjust, the mobile gaming industry is expected to reach $272 billion by 2030, which is about 1.5x of 2021's total figure. Given Garena's successes in monetizing its games, Garena should continue to enjoy gaming tailwinds in the foreseeable future, provided that its games remain in trend. This is also supported by Unity's findings that the APAC region is the fastest-growing regional market, a market that Garena dominates in.Moving on to e-commerce, we all know that e-commerce is growing rapidly and that its market share as a whole will continue to trend up from here. This is especially true for the Southeast Asian region where internet and smartphone adoption continues to increase by the day. Based on the e-Conomy SEA report, Southeast Asia now has 440 million internet users, up from 360 million in 2019. Its total population is about 589 million.Internet Gross Merchandise Value, or GMV, for the region was $170 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $360 billion by 2025 with e-commerce leading the charge. The shift to e-commerce is not only happening on the consumer side but also on the merchant side. Digital marketing tools, analytical tools, and digital payment solutions have accelerated business for merchants. Shopee's vertically-integrated platform also makes it easy for merchants in these developing countries to set up shop, distribute goods, and accept payments in a single platform.Source: e-Conomy SEA 2021Furthermore, Sea has recently expanded its e-commerce operations to other regions such as Latin America and Europe, which further expands its market opportunity.Lastly, we have the fintech industry pertaining to SeaMoney. In my PayPal (PYPL) deep dive, I discussed the growth of mobile wallets as a payment method in both online and offline transactions. The shift to a cashless and cardless society is inevitable and that is also true for Sea's markets.Source: Ark Invest Big Ideas 2022As you can see below, mobile wallets continue to gain traction in Southeast Asia. In addition, 92% of digital merchants intend to maintain usage or increase usage of digital payments in the next 1 to 2 years. ShopeePay and SeaMoney's other brands will benefit from this trend. Also of important note, SeaMoney's expansion to buy now pay later with SPayLater will be a key GMV and revenue driver for the segment. These are the reasons why some investors are so bullish on SeaMoney and why SeaMoney is a monster lurking in the shadows.Source: e-Conomy SEA 2021As you can see, Sea is at the forefront of three megatrends which should propel the business forward from here. Also, combining the different verticals in the same platform would present a significant synergistic opportunity as Sea establishes itself as a SuperApp in the making.Revenue ModelAs mentioned previously, Sea operates three main business segments.Digital EntertainmentGarena operates a freemium model whereby users can download and play games for free. The company generates revenue by selling in-game virtual items such as clothing, weaponry, or equipment.Investors should take note of how revenue is recognized for this segment. According to Sea's 10-K:Proceeds from these sales are initially recognized as “Advances from customers” and subsequently reclassified to “Deferred revenue” when the users make in-game purchases of the virtual currencies or virtual items within the games operated by the Company and the in-game purchases are no longer refundable.Garena also licenses games from other game developers. Revenue is generated based on revenue-sharing/royalty agreements with these developers. Revenue is recognized over the performance obligation period.Such delivery obligation period is determined in accordance with the estimated average lifespan of the virtual goods sold or estimated average lifespan of the paying users of the said games or similar games.E-commerceShopee generates revenue through a marketplace model. Sellers on the platform pay Shopee based on paid advertisement services, transaction-based fees, logistics services, and other value-added services.Shopee also generates revenue from goods sold directly by Shopee, which the company purchases in bulk from manufacturers or third-party suppliers.Digital Financial ServicesSeaMoney revenue consists of:Interest and fees from loans granted to commercial customersInterest and fees from Sea's consumer credit business such as SPayLaterCommissions charged to merchants when a customer pays using SeaMoney's mobile walletIncome StatementLet's analyze each of the business segments and then look at the entire Group as a whole.Digital EntertainmentGarena Revenue saw a 104% increase YoY in Q4. For the full year, Garena Revenue was up 114% YoY.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe rapid increase in Revenue was primarily due to recognition of accumulated deferred revenue from previous quarters. Bookings—which is essentially GAAP Revenue plus the change in digital entertainment deferred revenue —actually dropped for the first time QoQ and it is now lower than Revenue. This means that gamers are spending less on in-virtual items which will lead to lower Revenue recognized in subsequent quarters. As you can see, Bookings is in a massive deceleration.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe drop in Bookings was due to fewer gamers in the platform as the economy reopens and people spend more time outdoors, at school, or in the office. Quarterly Active Users, or QAUs, grew only 7% in Q4 to 652 million, compared to Q3's QAUs of 729 million.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisAs a result, Quarterly Paying Users, or QPUs, decelerated as well, which led to lower Bookings. Q4 QPUs was 77 million compared to Q3's 93 million.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe markets reacted negatively to this slowdown in Garena growth as the gaming business acts as the lifeline for Sea's two other segments. As you can see, Garena is a high-margin business, producing Adjusted EBITDA of $2.7 billion in FY2021. Operating Margin is very high at 61% in Q4. AEBITDA margin, on the other hand, is trending downwards as QoQ adds in Bookings wither.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisAs such, the slowdown in growth for Garena is scaring investors away as it may not provide sufficient cash flow to fund the continued growth of Shopee and SeaMoney.E-CommerceShopee GMV continues its upward march as e-commerce continues to gain traction in Shopee's existing and newer markets. However, we're also seeing a deceleration in growth due to tough YoY comps. GMV in FY2021 was $62.5 billion, an increase of 77%.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisGMV growth was also due to an increase in Orders in the Shopee platform, which totaled 6.1 billion in FY2021, an increase of 117%. Average Order Value, or AOV, however, is trending downwards. This may be perceived negatively as processing more lower-AOV orders meant higher logistical expenses and thus lower margins per order.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe increase in GMV translated to higher Shopee Revenue, which grew faster than GMV. Shopee Revenue grew 136% to $5.1 billion in FY2021, as compared to GMV growth of 77%.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe faster growth in Revenue was due to Shopee's increasing take rate, which displays Shopee's ability to monetize its marketplace platform. This is one of the only few positive developments coming out of the most recent earnings update.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisDespite the improving Revenue and take rate, Shopee is still suffering huge losses and it is mounting with each subsequent quarter, primarily due to the company expanding into new markets. FY2021 Shopee AEBITDA was $(2.6) billion at a -50% margin. Recall that Garena AEBITDA was $2.7 billion.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisAEBITDA per Order has been improving, although it flat-lined in the last few quarters. Again, this is due to the company aggressively expanding into new markets. For example, in Q4, Shopee Brazil recorded 140+ million gross orders with a $70+ million Revenue, up 400% and 326%, respectively. However, AEBITDA per Order in Brazil is still negative at $(2) per Order, despite being a 40% improvement from last year. As such, it is still a far cry from the overall AEBITDA per Order of $(0.45).Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisOn the bright side, in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, Q4 AEBITDA per Order before \"allocation of the headquarters’ common expenses\" was $(0.15), an improvement from last year's $(0.21). This shows that there is certainly hope for Shopee to be AEBITDA positive soon, which management has pointed out during the Q4 earnings call:We currently expect Shopee to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA before HQ cost allocation in Southeast Asia and Taiwan by this year. We also expect SeaMoney to achieve positive cash flow by next year. As a result, we currently expect that by 2025 cash generated by Shopee and SeaMoney proactively will enable these two businesses to substantially self-fund their own long-term growth.Digital Financial ServicesSeaMoney's Mobile Wallet Total Payment Volume grew 120% YoY to $17.2 billion in FY2021 due to the increasing adoption of mobile wallets in the region.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe growth in TPV was largely driven by the growth in QAUs. As shown below, the total ending QAUs in Q4 grew 90% YoY to 45.8 million users.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe real exciting part is that Revenue grew much faster than TPV and QAUs. SeaMoney Revenue is growing at a blistering pace, locking in high triple-digit growth rates over the last few years. FY2021 SeaMoney Revenue was $470 million, which is an increase of 673% from the previous year. This is due to take rates increasing from less than 1% in FY2020 to almost 4% by the end of the latest quarter.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisFurthermore, in Indonesia, over 20% of the QAUs have used more than one SeaMoney product or service, which includes credit services, digital banking, and insurance. As SeaMoney introduces more offerings, revenue should accelerate meaningfully as average revenue per user increases when people use additional products.As SeaMoney continues to gain scale, the segment will enjoy better unit economics. As shown below, while SeaMoney's AEBITDA is still in deeply negative territories, AEBITDA Margins has continued to trend towards profitability. Management also expects SeaMoney to be cash flow positive by next year.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThis is the segment that investors should pay special attention to, given that it has the potential to be Sea's second cash cow. For example, PayPal has Operating Margins of 20%+, which could be SeaMoney's long-term margin profile.GroupWith that said, let's take a look at how the business is doing as a whole.FY2021 Revenue was $10.0 billion, an increase of 128% YoY. Due to the law of large numbers and tough YoY comps, Revenue growth should decelerate from here.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisHere, we can see how Revenue is distributed across the different segments.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisWhat's encouraging is that Gross Profit Margins continue to trend upwards as the company gains economies of scale, even accounting for Shopee's aggressive expansion into new markets. FY2021 Gross Profit was $3.9 billion, up 189% YoY.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisOperating Expenses, however, remain elevated as management forgoes short-term profitability for long-term market dominance. FY2021 Total Operating Expenses were $5.5 billion. Below shows the different components of Operating Expenses as a percentage of Revenue.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisMost of the Operating Expenses were used for Sales & Marketing purposes. Unsurprisingly, Shopee had the highest S&M burn rate. Discounts, cashback, celebrity promotions... they're everywhere.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisAs a result, Operating Profit Margins is still negative, although it is trending in the right direction.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisAEBITDA, on the other hand, is plunging. This is due to Garena's falling Bookings and Shoppe's widening losses. AEBITDA for FY2021 was $(594) million, compared to FY2020 positive AEBITDA of $107 million. This is probably the most concerning figure for investors as such a high cash burn rate is unsustainable, which may also lead to additional capital raises that are dilutive to shareholders.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisThe guidance did not help either. Garena Bookings is expected to fall to just $3 billion, which is $1.3 billion lower than FY2021's number. Management blamed the reopening of the economy as well as the ban of Free Fire in India for the expected drop in Bookings. Assuming a modest 50% AEBITDA margin, Garena would bring in just $1.5 billion of AEBITDA for Sea in FY2022.On the other side, the other two segments are expected to continue with their immense pace of growth — Shopee and SeaMoney are expected to grow by 76% and 155%, respectively. If we assume a (50)% AEBITDA margin for both segments, Shopee and SeaMoney is expected to burn a total of about $(5.1) billion of AEBITDA. Adding Garena's estimated AEBITDA of $1.5 billion, Sea, as a Group, is expected to burn $(3.6) billion in FY2021.Source: Sea Limited FY2021 Q4 Investor PresentationBecause Garena is such an important piece of Shopee's and SeaMoney's growth story, a deceleration in Garena's business had investors reacting so negatively to Sea's latest earnings release, as now, the gaming business is incapable of covering the massive losses incurred by the other two business segments.Balance SheetSea's balance sheet position as of year-end FY2021 is at about $10.2 billion of Cash and Short Term Investments. While this may show that Sea has a substantial cushion against its short-term cash burn rate, its net cash position paints a different picture.Source: Sea Limited FY2021 Q4 Investor PresentationAdjusting for Sea's debt, Sea ended the year with a net cash position of around $5.9 billion. A substantial amount of its total debt comes from its recent issuance of 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026. The notes were issued when the stock was trading at $318 per share back in September and the initial conversion price is set at $477 per share. So, yes... conversion in the next 2 to 3 years is very unlikely.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisWith net cash of $5.9 billion and $(3.6) billion of estimated AEBITDA in FY2022, it won't be long before Sea requires another cash infusion. Therefore, if the high cash burn rate persists for the next 2 to 3 years, investors face a major risk of increasing financial leverage and/or dilution in the form of equity raises.Cash Flow StatementHere is what cash flow looks like over the last few quarters. Notice how Operating Cash Flow turned negative in the last quarter. Most of the cash also comes from Financing activities.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisUnlike other high-flying growth companies, Sea's Share-Based Compensation expenses are relatively low.Source: Sea Limited Investor Relations and Author's AnalysisCompetitive MoatsBased on my research and analysis, I identified three key competitive moats for Sea: brand, network effects, and barriers to entry. I used to think that Sea has cost advantages but as Garena becomes a smaller part of the overall business, and as losses continue to worsen, I have reason to believe that Sea no longer holds that moat.BrandAs discussed in previous sections, Garena's games, particularly Free Fire, have consistently ranked as the most downloaded mobile game in the world. Additionally, the Shopee app has gained cross-border stardom and is now regarded as the most downloaded or fastest-trending shopping App in the countries it operates in. Lastly, SeaMoney is also gaining traction with banking licenses granted in various countries that should increase brand value and trust.Network EffectsThe sheer amount of app downloads leads to powerful network effects. Garena has 652 million QAUs, which is about 8% of the world's population. Shopee recorded 200+ million app downloads in FY2021 alone. SeaMoney QAUs topped 45.8 million in Q4 and it is still in the early stages of adoption.With all these users in the Sea platform, cross-selling new products or services should be easier as Sea continues to scale. One such example is Shopee Brazil and Free Fire where each platform is encouraging consumers to use the other. As Sea continues to innovate and offer better experiences for its customers, the ecosystem gets bigger and tighter, leading to powerful network effects.Source: Shopee BrazilBarriers To EntryI believe each of Sea's core businesses is operating in a winner-takes-most environment with high barriers to entry.The mobile gaming environment requires the most talented developers to launch blockbuster games. Garena's Free Fire is certainly a blockbuster game and time in Free Fire's game means time away from other mobile games.Just like how Amazon (AMZN) dominates in the US, the e-commerce landscape in Southeast Asia and Latin America is dominated by a few players, such as Shopee, Tokopedia, and MercadoLibre (MELI). The scale and unit economics that these players have achieved makes it unsustainable for new entrants to compete with them.Banking and fintech is also a highly-regulated environment. Furthermore, consumers prefer to have just one mobile wallet, such as ShopeePay, as opposed to owning several different fintech applications.ValuationBased on my sum-of-the-parts and comparable company valuation analysis, Sea looks to be slightly undervalued with 19% upside potential. Of course, comparables are not perfect but based on this, we can gauge where Sea stands among peers.Source: Author's AnalysisOn the flip side, Sea looks extremely cheap on a historical basis. In terms of EV/Sales, Sea is trading at the lowest valuation since its IPO, trading at just 4.2x forward sales.Source: KoyfinIn terms of EV/Gross Profit, Sea is trading even cheaper than its March 2020 lows.Source: KoyfinThe valuation compression is warranted given that the company flew too close to the sun and now it is cratering back to the sea — not just for Sea, but almost all growth stocks took a beating. Growth is also slowing down and the macroeconomic environment looks gloomier than ever. However, this is not the end of the world; I think the markets are overreacting. Diversion from the mean goes both ways — perhaps, current prices present a good margin of safety for long-term investors.CatalystsSuccessful International Expansion — Shopee has been successful in replicating its playbook from Southeast Asia to Brazil. Recently, Shopee launched operations in India, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Argentina, Poland, and Spain. If Shopee can take substantial market share in these new regions, Shopee's growth could turn exponential.The Metaverse — Sea's withering gaming division needs to be revitalized. New games and features could definitely provide the boost that it needs. For example, the metaverse is an exciting opportunity and Garena could introduce this concept to its 600+ million QAUs. Sea AI Lab (SAIL) and Sea Capital are two ventures that could accelerate the company into emerging industries, including the metaverse.We will continue to encourage user-generated content by enhancing greater features and accessibility. We believe that a strong user reception to Craftland is a positive indicator of the initial success to encourage user participation in content creation and to build Free Fire into an increasingly open platform and is well aligned with major emerging industry trends such as metaverse.Regional SuperApp — Although this concept has yet to be discussed by management, launching a regional SuperApp could enhance user engagement to new levels. For example, imagine Shopee users being able to play games, shop, order food delivery, pay for services, transfer money, invest, all under one app. Imagine users being able to convert their deposited funds in ShopeePay, into ShopeeCoins, and use it to perform cross-border transactions.Continued Growth In SeaMoney — SeaMoney is still in its early stages and continued adoption of Sea's digital financial services offerings will be a strong addition to Sea's bull thesis. SPayLater has real potential to disrupt the consumer credit industry. SeaBank and ShopeePay have the opportunity to capture digital wallet, digital banking, and cashless society trends.Free Fire India Ban Lift— Garena's weak guidance factored in the headwinds coming from the ban in India. If the ban is lifted, the stock may react positively as much of Sea's cash burn problems may be eliminated.RisksThe Pressure to Launch Blockbuster Games— There will come a time when Free Fire will be dethroned as the most-played and most-downloaded game. That is just how the gaming business works. This puts a substantial risk on the cash flow generation potential of Garena. Launching blockbuster games is never easy and it requires many trials and errors along the way. For me, I would like to see Garena shift to a gaming franchise model where the company launches an updated version of an existing game every year or two, which presents a more stable and recurring revenue stream for the company. An example would be FIFA or Call of Duty.Shopee India Ban — With Free Fire banned in India, there's also the potential for Shoppe to be banned as well.Failure to Gain Traction in International Markets— Shopee pulled out of France in early March, an indication that Shoppe's business model is not replicable in other countries, especially in more developed regions. Shopee Poland and Spain may be next on the exit list as they hold a close resemblance to France.Geopolitical Risks— Tencent, a Chinese company, has an 18.7% equity stake in Sea. Sanctions, bans, and other restrictions on Chinese companies, given the current geopolitical environment, could spell trouble for Sea. Tencent may have to cut exposure on Sea or even dissolve its developing-publishing partnership with Garena.Local Competition— Local champions operating in their respective markets cannot be ignored. These include GoTo in Indonesia, MercadoLibre in Latin America, and Flipkart in India.In addition, there's a certain level of pride for consumers to see their native-born companies succeed. I'm Indonesian, and it makes me really happy to see GoTo grow and grow.GoTo, the holding company of both Indonesian tech darlings Gojek and Tokopedia, recently announced its plan to IPO in the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Here's a glance of GoTo's stats for the 12-months ended 30 September 2021:Valuation: $26.2 billion to $28.8 billionGMV: $28.8 billionRevenue: $1 billionGross Orders: 2 billionAnnual Transacting Users: 55 millionDriver Partners: 2.5 millionMerchants: 14 millionThe point is that there are big-time local players operating in Sea's markets that investors should never ignore. Here's a little snippet from my previous Shopee article:But with the GoTo merger, Indonesia could potentially extinguish the orange flame that charred its forest for many years. Now, GoTo could finally reclaim a good chunk of its territory that was lost to waves of competition, especially from Shopee. GoTo could finally gain more ground as the roots grew even stronger with the merger, fertilized with the synergies of value propositions, logistics, payments, and banking solutions.Meanwhile, Sea Limited's stock continues to soar, ignoring the titan of an elephant in the room. And because of GoTo's integration, Shopee's vertically-integrated business model doesn't look like a strong competitive advantage anymore.ConclusionEach of Sea's core businesses is in hypergrowth mode, propelled by megatrends in the mobile gaming, e-commerce, and fintech industry. Management understands these opportunities and therefore, is sacrificing short-term profitability for long-term market dominance. Despite being a larger business, Sea still has a massive growth runway ahead.That is not to say that unprofitability and competition risks can and should be ignored. The biggest concern for investors is the company's unsustainable cash burn rate, which will likely lead to further capital raises in the near future.Nonetheless, the long-term growth thesis for the three-headed monster remains intact. Strong brand, network effects, and barriers to entry moats should support the business going forward. In addition, shares of Sea are trading at the lowest valuation multiples ever, which presents a good margin of safety for an entry at these prices.Thank you for reading my Sea Limited deep dive.

Although big drops in the market can be unnerving at times, they're the price of admission to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the world's top long-term wealth creators.</p><p>But where there's volatility, there's almost always opportunity. With every notable stock market decline throughout history eventually getting erased by a bull market rally, this ongoing correction represents just another in a long line of opportunities for patient investors to put their money to work and grow their wealth.</p><p>The big question is: Which stocks to buy?</p><h2>Buying dividend stocks is a winning formula for patient investors</h2><p>While there are a lot of investing strategies that work over the long run, few have outperformed more resoundingly than buying dividend stocks.</p><p>Nine years ago, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, a division of money-center bank <b>JPMorgan Chase</b>, released a report that examined the annualized performance of dividend-paying stocks to non-dividend payers over a 40-year period (1972-2012). The report showed that dividend stocks absolutely mopped the floor with publicly traded companies that didn't pay a dividend. Specifically, companies that initiated and grew their payout delivered a 9.5% annualized return, which was many multiples higher than the 1.6% annualized return from the public companies not paying a dividend.</p><p>This outperformance isn't unexpected. Since income stocks are almost always profitable and time-tested, and have relatively transparent long-term growth outlooks, investors should expect these steady companies to increase in value over time.</p><p>Perhaps the biggest challenge for income investors is balancing yield and risk. Ideally, you'd want the highest yield possible with the least amount of risk. But data has shown that yield and risk tend to go hand in hand once you reach high-yield status (4% and above). Because yield is simply a function of payout relative to share price, a falling share price that's indicative of a struggling or failing operating model can lure income seekers into a value trap. What I'm ultimately trying to say is that high-yield and ultra-high-yield stocks (those I'm arbitrarily defining as having yields of 7% or higher) require extra vetting.</p><p>The good news for investors is that there are high-quality, ultra-high-yield dividend stocks they can buy and count on. In fact, select analysts on Wall Street see abundant upside for two popular ultra-high-yield income stocks. If these one-year price targets prove accurate, this duo could offer as much as 72% upside.</p><h2>AT&T: Implied upside of 72% (8.71% yield)</h2><p>Among ultra-high-yielding stocks, you'd struggle to find a company with more upside potential than telecom stock <b>AT&T</b> (NYSE:T) -- at least according to one analyst.</p><p>In January, Ivan Feinseth of Tigress Financial increased his firm's 12-month price target on AT&T to $41 from $36. If Feinseth's price target were to become reality, AT&T's shares would increase by a cool 72%. Feinseth's note accompanying his firms' price target increase points to AT&T's subscriber growth and upcoming spinoff of WarnerMedia (which I'll touch on in a moment) as reasons shares can head substantially higher.</p><p>For AT&T investors (of which I'm one), there are two key catalysts on the immediate horizon.</p><p>First, there's the continued upgrade of wireless infrastructure to support 5G speeds. It's been roughly a decade since download speeds were meaningfully improved. The rollout of 5G should entice consumers and businesses to replace their wireless devices for years to come. Since AT&T's wireless segment generates its juiciest margins from data consumption, faster download speeds with 5G represent a healthy dose of organic growth for this stalwart telecom company.</p><p>The second catalyst is the aforementioned spinoff of content arm WarnerMedia, which will then be merged with <b>Discovery</b> (NASDAQ:DISCA)(NASDAQ:DISCK) to create a new media entity, WarnerMedia-Discovery. Current AT&T investors will have a stake in this new media company.</p><p>When merged, WarnerMedia-Discovery will offer a larger content library and should be able to reduce its annual expenses by more than $3 billion. Pro forma subscriber figures suggest the new company will have in the neighborhood of 94 million streaming customers.</p><p>For what remains of AT&T following the spinoff, the focus will turn to debt reduction. AT&T plans to slightly more than halve its dividend so it'll have even more cash to pay down its debt. Yet even with this upcoming dividend cut, AT&T will still sport a hearty yield of around 4.3%.</p><p>Betting on a 72% increase in its share price in 12 months seems a bit optimistic. However, unlocking value via the WarnerMedia spinoff is a smart move and suggests AT&T could move much higher over time.</p><h2>Sabra Health Care REIT: Implied upside of 34% (8.93% yield)</h2><p>A second ultra-high-yield dividend stock with substantial upside, according to one Wall Street analyst, is <b>Sabra Health Care REIT</b> (NASDAQ:SBRA).</p><p>Sabra, which is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns more than 400 healthcare facilities tied to skilled nursing and senior housing, is expected to rally to $18 a share over the next 12 months, based on the price target offered by Stifel analyst Stephen Manaker. Manaker's optimism is based on the expectation of healthy funds from operation growth in 2022 despite the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. If Manaker is right, Sabra's shares could jump 34%, which would be on top of its nearly 9% yield.</p><p>As you might imagine, Sabra Health Care was hit hard during the early stages of the pandemic. Since COVID-19 is particularly troublesome for the elderly, occupancy rates at skilled nursing and senior housing facilities fell. This put into question whether Sabra would receive rent from its tenants on schedule.</p><p>But there's good news. According to the company, 99.6% of all expected rents have been collected since the pandemic began two years ago. What's more, senior occupancy rates in the skilled nursing and senior housing facilities it owns troughed over a year ago and have been rebounding ever since.</p><p>To add to the positives, the company recently amended its master lease agreement with Avamere, an operator of 27 facilities leased from Sabra. Avamere is the one key operator that had previously struggled to meet its rent payments. This amended master lease agreement gives Avamere some breathing room as it recovers from the worst of the pandemic, and it allows Sabra to potentially net more in future rent if Avamere's recovery really gains steam. In other words, a big gray cloud of uncertainty has been removed.</p><p>Although the pandemic isn't over, investors can begin looking into the future and marveling at Sabra's prime position in the healthcare space.

Although big drops in the market can be unnerving at times, they're the price of admission to one of the world's top long-term wealth creators.But where there's volatility, there's almost always opportunity. With every notable stock market decline throughout history eventually getting erased by a bull market rally, this ongoing correction represents just another in a long line of opportunities for patient investors to put their money to work and grow their wealth.The big question is: Which stocks to buy?Buying dividend stocks is a winning formula for patient investorsWhile there are a lot of investing strategies that work over the long run, few have outperformed more resoundingly than buying dividend stocks.Nine years ago, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, a division of money-center bank JPMorgan Chase, released a report that examined the annualized performance of dividend-paying stocks to non-dividend payers over a 40-year period (1972-2012). The report showed that dividend stocks absolutely mopped the floor with publicly traded companies that didn't pay a dividend. Specifically, companies that initiated and grew their payout delivered a 9.5% annualized return, which was many multiples higher than the 1.6% annualized return from the public companies not paying a dividend.This outperformance isn't unexpected. Since income stocks are almost always profitable and time-tested, and have relatively transparent long-term growth outlooks, investors should expect these steady companies to increase in value over time.Perhaps the biggest challenge for income investors is balancing yield and risk. Ideally, you'd want the highest yield possible with the least amount of risk. But data has shown that yield and risk tend to go hand in hand once you reach high-yield status (4% and above). Because yield is simply a function of payout relative to share price, a falling share price that's indicative of a struggling or failing operating model can lure income seekers into a value trap. What I'm ultimately trying to say is that high-yield and ultra-high-yield stocks (those I'm arbitrarily defining as having yields of 7% or higher) require extra vetting.The good news for investors is that there are high-quality, ultra-high-yield dividend stocks they can buy and count on. In fact, select analysts on Wall Street see abundant upside for two popular ultra-high-yield income stocks. If these one-year price targets prove accurate, this duo could offer as much as 72% upside.AT&T: Implied upside of 72% (8.71% yield)Among ultra-high-yielding stocks, you'd struggle to find a company with more upside potential than telecom stock AT&T (NYSE:T) -- at least according to one analyst.In January, Ivan Feinseth of Tigress Financial increased his firm's 12-month price target on AT&T to $41 from $36. If Feinseth's price target were to become reality, AT&T's shares would increase by a cool 72%. Feinseth's note accompanying his firms' price target increase points to AT&T's subscriber growth and upcoming spinoff of WarnerMedia (which I'll touch on in a moment) as reasons shares can head substantially higher.For AT&T investors (of which I'm one), there are two key catalysts on the immediate horizon.First, there's the continued upgrade of wireless infrastructure to support 5G speeds. It's been roughly a decade since download speeds were meaningfully improved. The rollout of 5G should entice consumers and businesses to replace their wireless devices for years to come. Since AT&T's wireless segment generates its juiciest margins from data consumption, faster download speeds with 5G represent a healthy dose of organic growth for this stalwart telecom company.The second catalyst is the aforementioned spinoff of content arm WarnerMedia, which will then be merged with Discovery (NASDAQ:DISCA)(NASDAQ:DISCK) to create a new media entity, WarnerMedia-Discovery. Current AT&T investors will have a stake in this new media company.When merged, WarnerMedia-Discovery will offer a larger content library and should be able to reduce its annual expenses by more than $3 billion. Pro forma subscriber figures suggest the new company will have in the neighborhood of 94 million streaming customers.For what remains of AT&T following the spinoff, the focus will turn to debt reduction. AT&T plans to slightly more than halve its dividend so it'll have even more cash to pay down its debt. Yet even with this upcoming dividend cut, AT&T will still sport a hearty yield of around 4.3%.Betting on a 72% increase in its share price in 12 months seems a bit optimistic. However, unlocking value via the WarnerMedia spinoff is a smart move and suggests AT&T could move much higher over time.Sabra Health Care REIT: Implied upside of 34% (8.93% yield)A second ultra-high-yield dividend stock with substantial upside, according to one Wall Street analyst, is Sabra Health Care REIT (NASDAQ:SBRA).Sabra, which is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns more than 400 healthcare facilities tied to skilled nursing and senior housing, is expected to rally to $18 a share over the next 12 months, based on the price target offered by Stifel analyst Stephen Manaker. Manaker's optimism is based on the expectation of healthy funds from operation growth in 2022 despite the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. If Manaker is right, Sabra's shares could jump 34%, which would be on top of its nearly 9% yield.As you might imagine, Sabra Health Care was hit hard during the early stages of the pandemic. Since COVID-19 is particularly troublesome for the elderly, occupancy rates at skilled nursing and senior housing facilities fell. This put into question whether Sabra would receive rent from its tenants on schedule.But there's good news. According to the company, 99.6% of all expected rents have been collected since the pandemic began two years ago. What's more, senior occupancy rates in the skilled nursing and senior housing facilities it owns troughed over a year ago and have been rebounding ever since.To add to the positives, the company recently amended its master lease agreement with Avamere, an operator of 27 facilities leased from Sabra. Avamere is the one key operator that had previously struggled to meet its rent payments. This amended master lease agreement gives Avamere some breathing room as it recovers from the worst of the pandemic, and it allows Sabra to potentially net more in future rent if Avamere's recovery really gains steam. In other words, a big gray cloud of uncertainty has been removed.Although the pandemic isn't over, investors can begin looking into the future and marveling at Sabra's prime position in the healthcare space. As the boomer population ages, it'll be one of a handful of companies in ideal position to benefit.With the company putting $419.4 million to work in the form of new investments in 2021, and netting a 7.6% weighted-average yield on those investments, it's a good bet to deliver steady returns for patient shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9094841535,"gmtCreate":1645116808428,"gmtModify":1676533999322,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Further slide in view","listText":"Further slide in view","text":"Further slide in view","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9094841535","repostId":"2212611616","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2212611616","pubTimestamp":1645111682,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2212611616?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-17 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood purchased the dip in Roblox, $24M worth as the stock sold off 26%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2212611616","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"ARK Invest CEO and CIO Cathie Wood purchased the dip in Roblox Corporation (NYSE:RBLX) on Wednesday ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>ARK Invest CEO and CIO Cathie Wood purchased the dip in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">Roblox Corporation</a> (NYSE:RBLX) on Wednesday after the online gaming platform dropped 26.5%.

The pandemic has turned that calculus upside down.\nThat is the conclusion from AEI Housing Centre research, which found that all but two of the 20 sharpest declines in metro-area home values from 2018 to 2021 are in Manhattan zip codes, including drops of about 10 per cent in parts of Greenwich Village and Soho.\nThe trend may not reverse any time soon. Higher earners, who are more likely to have the opportunity to work from home, are now looking away from city centres in search of amenities such as greater living areas, office space, lots and access to open spaces, according to the AEI Housing Centre, which is part of the American Enterprise Institute think-tank in Washington.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA new survey published recently by the Pew Research Centre confirmed the trend. Some 60 per cent of respondents - up 7 percentage points from 2019 - said they prefer living in a community with bigger houses, even if that means shops and schools are farther away.\nA shift was already under way before Covid-19 hit, with affluent families moving out and younger people with lower incomes moving into some of the most walkable parts of big cities, according to Mr Tobias Peter, director of research at the AIE Housing Centre.\n\"We're seeing this has just been turbocharged\" by the pandemic, he said. Higher earners \"are freed from being shackled to their desk or their employer. So now they can move virtually across the entire country\".\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the second quarter, net migration out of urban neighbourhoods continued to be more than double the pace observed before the pandemic, according to a report by policy economist Stephan Whitaker at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. \"This flow of middle-aged people moving out to purchase homes in the suburbs is balancing a swelling return of young renters to urban neighbourhoods,\" he wrote.\nFrom 2012 to the start of the pandemic, housing values in the most walkable areas in New York City had appreciated cumulatively by about 45 per cent. Walkable is defined as a 10-minute distance by foot from commercial amenities and maybe a transit station.\nThe pre-Covid-19 boom gave New Yorkers arbitrage opportunities that the AEI Housing Centre quantified by tracking buyers through public records and changes of address at the post office. People selling a property in the New York City metro area and buying one in Florida spent about 70 per cent to 80 per cent of the proceeds on the new home, based on the median price. Whether they moved to Orlando, Fort Myers or Sarasota, they lost on \"walkability\", the data shows.\nMs Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor.com, cautions against writing off the attraction of lively city centres. Even though the coronavirus and its variants are here to stay, at least for now, many people will still want to be in close proximity to others, where they can benefit from the culture and the social interactions.\n\"My expectation is that it's likely to be temporary,\" she said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":99,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3582883416532133","authorId":"3582883416532133","name":"NewbieLeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d67674084088d7a0f8f4d8152ba870e","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3582883416532133","authorIdStr":"3582883416532133"},"content":"what do we think - would housing prices still be dependent on the old adage of \"location location location\"?","text":"what do we think - would housing prices still be dependent on the old adage of \"location location location\"?","html":"what do we think - would housing prices still be dependent on the old adage of \"location location location\"?"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":887553710,"gmtCreate":1632072096030,"gmtModify":1676530695414,"author":{"id":"3584955097359320","authorId":"3584955097359320","name":"FlareSpark","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38942f5d417a8d645800903b08402b4e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584955097359320","authorIdStr":"3584955097359320"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting article","listText":"Interesting article","text":"Interesting article","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/887553710","repostId":"1198486138","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1198486138","pubTimestamp":1632023224,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1198486138?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-19 11:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 ways men live without working in America","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1198486138","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"How do they live?

One-third of all working-age men. That’s almost 30 million people!</p>\n<p>How do they live? What are they doing for money? To me, this is one of the great mysteries of our time.</p>\n<p>I’m certainly not the first person to make note of this shocking statistic. You’ve heard people bemoaning this \"labor participation rate,\" which is simply the number of working-age men (usually counted as ages 16 to 64) not working or not looking for work, as a percentage of the overall labor force.</p>\n<p>It’s true that the pandemic, which of course produced a number of factors that made working more difficult never mind dangerous, pushed the labor participation rate to a record low.

(There are actually a variety of social programs at play,spelled out nicely hereby think tank The Century Foundation, which estimates that overall these programs have pumped $800 billion in the economy.) We’ll be getting a good read on whether all this relief did suppress employment now that CARES aid ended for some 7.5 million Americans earlier this month. But as Yahoo Finance’s Denitsa Tsekova reportedhereandhere, states that ended federal aid programs early didn’t see big increases in employment. That may mean these payments really weren’t enough to live off, or not enough to live off by themselves, which speaks to men looking to a combination of sources, like under the table income or family support and possibly some savings (see below).</p>\n<p><b>-Early retirement, pensions, disability and lawsuits</b></p>\n<p>Admittedly, this is a bit of a hodgepodge. And as is the case with many of these categories, hard data is tough to come by, but it is the case that millions of men under 64 are at least partly living off of pensions and 401(k)s. This would include everything from C-suite executives to union members. And don’t forget municipal workers, who make up almost 14% of the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 6,000 public sector retirement systems in the U.S.Collectively these plans have $4.5 trillion in assets,with 14.7 million working members and 11.2 million retirees. The plans distribute $323 billion in benefits annually, and again, some to men who are younger than 64. In fact in almost two-thirds of these plans,if you started working at 25, you max out at 57, a real inducement to stop working — at least at that job of course.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53e26b293f8a939a54b78315c3375a18\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Volunteers load cars with turkeys and other food assistance for laid off Walt Disney World cast members and others at a food distribution event on December 12, 2020 in Orlando, Florida.

That's why I am including disability here, but not plain vanilla Social Security, which you can’t receive until age 62. The maximum disability benefit amount you can receive each month is currently $3,148. (However, the average beneficiary receives about $1,277 per month, according to the law group Social Security Disability Advocates.) Overall, it looks like theSSA pays out some $130 billion in disability annually.That’s not nothing. Then there’s money paid out in medical malpractice each year, smaller true, but stillestimated to be in excess of $3 billion.And don't forgetpayments from legal settlements and class action lawsuits.</p>\n<p>You argue all day about the right or wrong when it comes to these payouts, but the fact is many of them didn’t exist, or not at this magnitude, decades ago.</p>\n<p><b>-Savings, trading stocks, and bitcoin</b></p>\n<p>Consider now men are living off savings, or from money made in the market or maybe even selling NFTs. How many is it exactly? Who knows, but quite a few for sure. First off, Americans on average do have some money in the bank. Savings as a percentage of disposable income,according to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City,hit a record high of 33% in the spring of 2020 and is still at 14%, or nearly twice as high as it was prior to the pandemic.</p>\n<p>And according to arecent survey by Northwestern Mutual,average personal savings are up over 10% compared to last year, from $65,900 last year to $73,100.

It is not irrelevant to this narrative that the S&P 500 has climbed from 2,480 on March 12, 2020 — the day after the World Health Organization declared COVID a pandemic— to 4,441 today, or almost 80%. That’s a huge gain. Much of the action of course has been retail investors and the meme stock boom, as millions of American males stuck at home with nothing to do all day for the past 18 months passed the time trading stocks. Credit Suisse estimates that since the beginning of 2020, “retail trading as a share of overall market activityhas nearly doubledfrom between 15% and 18% to over 30%,” as CNBC reported. How many men were doing this and supporting themselves? Unclear, but upstart trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) — the broker dealer of choice for many of these new investors — reported that it had22.5 million funded user accountslast month, up from 7.2 million in March of 2020. Let’s just say 15 million new accounts is quite a number.</p>\n<p>Now crypto. You can laugh all you want, but the simple fact is that theprice of bitcoinis up from $4,861 on March 12, 2000 to $47,763 today, or basically up 10X, (and remember it even hit $64,888.99 this spring). Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/809084435ffdcbc0695311d158bb7a98\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Robinhood Markets, Inc. CEO and co-founder Vlad Tenev and co-founder Baiju Bhatt pose with Robinhood signage on Wall Street after the company's IPO in New York City, U.S., July 29, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly<b>-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy</b></p>\n<p>This one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer. For example, my electrician Luis just told me he can’t get anyone to work for him anymore — they all want to get paid in cash.</p>\n<p><b>-Living off family members</b></p>\n<p>Just to take one facet,the Pew Research Center reportedlast year that the pandemic “has pushed millions of Americans, especially young adults, to move in with family members. The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading [in early 2020], surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era. In July, 52% of young adults resided with one or both of their parents, up from 47% in February.” How many of these individuals are males living rent free (and sharing food too), which maybe means they don’t have to work? Who knows, but some. Ditto for males who have moved in with in-laws or siblings. And again, many men are choosing to stay home and take care of kids while their spouses work.</p>\n<p><b>-Illegal work</b></p>\n<p>Front and center here is selling illegal drugs. Sadly, business looks to be booming, that is if overdoses are any sort of measure.According to the Washington Post, overdose deaths hit 93,000 last year, up a stunning 30% from 2019. Most of the overdoses were attributed to opioids; heroin, synthetic opioids like OxyContin and in particular Fentanyl. (This despite drug dealers facingsupply chain issuesduring COVID.) How many Americans are in this business and who are they? A number is almost impossible to come by here, but as for who they are,a government report on drug trafficking arrestsfrom five years ago notes that ”the majority of drug trafficking offenders were male (84.9%), the average age of these offenders at sentencing was 36 years, 70% were United States citizens (although this rate varied substantially depending on the type of drug involved), and that almost half (49.4%) of drug traffickers had little or no prior criminal history.” How big a business is selling drugs in America? Could beas much as $100 billion.I think it’s fair to say that a market that size requires many thousands of employees.</p>\n<p>What about other types of crime and criminals, everything from robbers and thieves to prostitutes and pimps? To that point there aresome 2 million people incarcerated in the U.S.right now. (We have the highest absolute number and the highest per capita on the planet, and holdsome 25% of the world's total prisoners, according to the ACLU.) Being in prison is another way of living in America without working, I guess. But not counting those locked up, how many bad guys are out there on the street? Conservatively, it has to be thousands and thousands, and speaking to this story, they're all doing their thing and not participating in the labor force.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f8f4b3e6a5aa97a10f5c7bb22dec1d7\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">ORLEANS, MASSACHUSETTS - JULY 10: A man holds onto a clamming rake while clamming at low tide July 10, 2021 in Town Cove, Orleans, Massachusetts. He filled a bushel basket of cherry stone clams. (Photo by Robert Nickelsberg/Getty Images)More<b>-Living off the land</b></p>\n<p>This would include gardening, fishing, hunting, clamming, berrying, and just general foraging. The numbers here seem to be climbing. Here for instancefrom The Guardian:</p>\n<p>“Fishing and huntinglicense sales increased 10%in California during the pandemic, reversing years of decline. Clamming has grown in popularity for several reasons: people are looking for safe activities to do outdoors, but also some are clamming for subsistence and trying to get money from selling the shellfish (which is illegal without a commercial license).”</p>\n<p>Ditto for Washington state, according to The Spokesman-Review:</p>\n<p>“From the start of the 2020 licensing year in May through Dec. 31, WDFW [Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife] sold nearly 45,000 more fishing licenses and 12,000 more hunting licenses than 2019. The number of new license holders — defined as someone who hadn’t purchased one for the previous five years — went up 16% for fishing licenses and almost 40% for hunters.”</p>\n<p>As for growing vegetables in home gardens, yes, it is up, way up too. Even before the pandemic, there were estimates thata third of American families grew vegetables.Now this,NPRreported last year:</p>\n<p>“‘We're being flooded with vegetable orders,’ says George Ball, executive chairman of the Burpee Seed Company, based in Warminster, Penn.</p>\n<p>Ball says he has noticed spikes in seed sales during bad times: the stock market crash of 1987, the dot com bubble burst of 2000, and he remembers the two oil crises of the 1970s from his childhood. But he says he has not seen a spike this large and widespread.</p>\n<p>So there you have it. It’s a whole range of ways and means, behaviors and experiences. I’m sure I missed some, too. Again, some non-working men are in dire straits and need our help. Others are living non-working lives without burdening society or others, such as a fireman on early retirement (though some argue municipal employee pensions are too high), or an investor who made a ton of money in the market and called it quits, or maybe a wilderness guy living off the land in Alaska.</p>\n<p>And some non-working men are not playing fair. Like getting paid under the table, fudging insurance claims or social programs. Some freeload off relatives. And some engage in overtly illegal behavior like boosting branded goods from chain stores to sell online or dealing heroin.</p>\n<p>I would imagine that more than a few of these men create a portfolio of sources, though I’m not sure they really think of it that way. Take for example a hypothetical guy in a rural area who lives with his grandmother rent free, (he does help her with the garden some). This guy also does some cash carpentry work, hunts for game, gets some food off his ex-wife’s WIC and helps his brother sell some weed. Can you get by this way? Some men probably are. Is this the new American way? For some men it probably is.</p>\n<p>That example perhaps, and to be sure of all of the above, I think go a long way toward explaining that chart from the beginning of the story, the one that shows the labor participation rate falling off a cliff over the past seven decades. And speaking of charts, another striking one came to mind when I was writing this, which I put here below. It shows U.S. GDP over the same time period as the labor participation rate.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0f197be5c6c11483ec906a1757293e4d\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"259\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Chart of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve</p>\n<p>Of course, the line on this GDP chart is inversely correlated with the line on the labor participation graph. And I think there is a relationship between the two. Which is to say, the wealthier our nation has become over the decades, the less men are working. Fact is there is just a ton of money sloshing around in our country. And men seem to be able to get their hands on it, whether obtained legally, borrowed, leached off of or stolen.</p>\n<p>It seems like working legally to provide for yourself in America is really just one option these days.</p>\n<p><b><i>This article was featured in a Saturday edition of the Morning Brief on September 18, 2021.

Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)\nRobinhood Markets, Inc.

REUTERS/Andrew Kelly-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy\nThis one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer. For example, my electrician Luis just told me he can’t get anyone to work for him anymore — they all want to get paid in cash.\n-Living off family members\nJust to take one facet,the Pew Research Center reportedlast year that the pandemic “has pushed millions of Americans, especially young adults, to move in with family members. The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading [in early 2020], surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era. In July, 52% of young adults resided with one or both of their parents, up from 47% in February.” How many of these individuals are males living rent free (and sharing food too), which maybe means they don’t have to work? Who knows, but some. Ditto for males who have moved in with in-laws or siblings. And again, many men are choosing to stay home and take care of kids while their spouses work.\n-Illegal work\nFront and center here is selling illegal drugs. Sadly, business looks to be booming, that is if overdoses are any sort of measure.According to the Washington Post, overdose deaths hit 93,000 last year, up a stunning 30% from 2019. Most of the overdoses were attributed to opioids; heroin, synthetic opioids like OxyContin and in particular Fentanyl. (This despite drug dealers facingsupply chain issuesduring COVID.) How many Americans are in this business and who are they? A number is almost impossible to come by here, but as for who they are,a government report on drug trafficking arrestsfrom five years ago notes that ”the majority of drug trafficking offenders were male (84.9%), the average age of these offenders at sentencing was 36 years, 70% were United States citizens (although this rate varied substantially depending on the type of drug involved), and that almost half (49.4%) of drug traffickers had little or no prior criminal history.” How big a business is selling drugs in America? Could beas much as $100 billion.I think it’s fair to say that a market that size requires many thousands of employees.\nWhat about other types of crime and criminals, everything from robbers and thieves to prostitutes and pimps? To that point there aresome 2 million people incarcerated in the U.S.right now. (We have the highest absolute number and the highest per capita on the planet, and holdsome 25% of the world's total prisoners, according to the ACLU.) Being in prison is another way of living in America without working, I guess. But not counting those locked up, how many bad guys are out there on the street? Conservatively, it has to be thousands and thousands, and speaking to this story, they're all doing their thing and not participating in the labor force.\nORLEANS, MASSACHUSETTS - JULY 10: A man holds onto a clamming rake while clamming at low tide July 10, 2021 in Town Cove, Orleans, Massachusetts.

(Photo by Robert Nickelsberg/Getty Images)More-Living off the land\nThis would include gardening, fishing, hunting, clamming, berrying, and just general foraging. The numbers here seem to be climbing. Here for instancefrom The Guardian:\n“Fishing and huntinglicense sales increased 10%in California during the pandemic, reversing years of decline. Clamming has grown in popularity for several reasons: people are looking for safe activities to do outdoors, but also some are clamming for subsistence and trying to get money from selling the shellfish (which is illegal without a commercial license).”\nDitto for Washington state, according to The Spokesman-Review:\n“From the start of the 2020 licensing year in May through Dec. 31, WDFW [Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife] sold nearly 45,000 more fishing licenses and 12,000 more hunting licenses than 2019. The number of new license holders — defined as someone who hadn’t purchased one for the previous five years — went up 16% for fishing licenses and almost 40% for hunters.”\nAs for growing vegetables in home gardens, yes, it is up, way up too. Even before the pandemic, there were estimates thata third of American families grew vegetables.Now this,NPRreported last year:\n“‘We're being flooded with vegetable orders,’ says George Ball, executive chairman of the Burpee Seed Company, based in Warminster, Penn.\nBall says he has noticed spikes in seed sales during bad times: the stock market crash of 1987, the dot com bubble burst of 2000, and he remembers the two oil crises of the 1970s from his childhood. But he says he has not seen a spike this large and widespread.\nSo there you have it. It’s a whole range of ways and means, behaviors and experiences. I’m sure I missed some, too. Again, some non-working men are in dire straits and need our help. Others are living non-working lives without burdening society or others, such as a fireman on early retirement (though some argue municipal employee pensions are too high), or an investor who made a ton of money in the market and called it quits, or maybe a wilderness guy living off the land in Alaska.\nAnd some non-working men are not playing fair. Like getting paid under the table, fudging insurance claims or social programs. Some freeload off relatives. And some engage in overtly illegal behavior like boosting branded goods from chain stores to sell online or dealing heroin.\nI would imagine that more than a few of these men create a portfolio of sources, though I’m not sure they really think of it that way. Take for example a hypothetical guy in a rural area who lives with his grandmother rent free, (he does help her with the garden some). This guy also does some cash carpentry work, hunts for game, gets some food off his ex-wife’s WIC and helps his brother sell some weed. Can you get by this way? Some men probably are. Is this the new American way? For some men it probably is.\nThat example perhaps, and to be sure of all of the above, I think go a long way toward explaining that chart from the beginning of the story, the one that shows the labor participation rate falling off a cliff over the past seven decades. And speaking of charts, another striking one came to mind when I was writing this, which I put here below. It shows U.S. GDP over the same time period as the labor participation rate.\nChart of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve\nOf course, the line on this GDP chart is inversely correlated with the line on the labor participation graph. And I think there is a relationship between the two. Which is to say, the wealthier our nation has become over the decades, the less men are working. Fact is there is just a ton of money sloshing around in our country. And men seem to be able to get their hands on it, whether obtained legally, borrowed, leached off of or stolen.\nIt seems like working legally to provide for yourself in America is really just one option these days.\nThis article was featured in a Saturday edition of the Morning Brief on September 18, 2021.
