According to CEO Mary Barra, the company aims to launch 30 new EVs globally by the end of 2025, with the goal of producing more than 1 million EVs annually in North America by mid-decade.

Since Verizon is lugging around quite a bit of debt, and access to cheap capital could quickly dwindle, investors have taken a cautious stance. But this trepidation can be your opportunity to nab a great deal.</p><p>Although Verizon has been a slow-growing company in recent years, it does have two clear organic growth catalysts in plain sight that could reasonably lift its valuation.</p><p>First, there's the ongoing rollout of 5G wireless infrastructure. Verizon noted in January that it was planning to spend between $5 billion and $6 billion this year to build out 5G in initial markets and prepare for the next round of 5G expansion. Keep in mind that it's been a decade since wireless download speeds were meaningfully improved.</p><p>Access to faster download speeds should entice a multiyear consumer and enterprise device-replacement cycle. Since Verizon generates its juiciest margins from data consumption, 5G is an investment that shouldn't take much time to pay off handsomely for the company's wireless segment.</p><p>The second big catalyst for Verizon is its acquisition of 5G mid-band spectrum last year. Buying this mid-band spectrum is essential for the company's 5G at-home broadband services push. The company's goal is to have its 5G at-home broadband services in 30 million homes by the end of 2023. Even though broadband isn't the high-growth trend it was in the 2000s, it's still a steady producer of cash flow and can encourage add-on sales for existing wireless subscribers.</p><p>If you need a few more good reasons to buy Verizon right now, consider its valuation and dividend. This is a company that's averaged a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 11.5 and a dividend yield of a little over 4% over the past five years. Investors can currently buy shares of Verizon for about nine times forward-year earnings and will receive an almost 5% dividend yield for their patience.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a></p><p>The third surefire Warren Buffett stock that stands out as a screaming buy in April is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a>. BofA is Berkshire Hathaway's second-largest holding.</p><p>Not to sound like a broken record, but bank stocks have been under pressure in recent weeks as a result of interest-rate movements. But rather than worrying specifically about a rising-rate environment, Wall Street and investors appear most concerned about the inversion of the two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury yields. While not every yield-curve inversion is followed by a recession, every recession dating back multiple decades has been preceded by a two-year/10-year yield-curve inversion.</p><p>Interestingly, though, the cyclical nature of the banking industry can actually be viewed as a positive if you're a long-term investor. Despite recessions being an inevitable part of the economic cycle, periods of contraction often last for only a few months or a couple of quarters.</p><p>By comparison, economic expansions are measured in years. This means bank stocks like BofA tend to benefit from the natural expansion of the U.S. economy over time.</p><p>What makes Bank of America such an intriguing investment opportunity at the moment is its interest-rate sensitivity. No big bank stands to benefit more from a rising-rate environment than BofA. When the company reported its year-end results in January, it noted that a 100 basis-point parallel shift in the interest-rate yield curve would bring in an estimated $6.5 billion in added net interest income over the next 12 months. With the nation's central bank forecasting north of 100 basis points in cumulative hikes in 2022, Bank of America is potentially set for a windfall of extra interest income.</p><p>Also, as I've previously pointed out, Bank of America's digitization efforts are progressing nicely. Over the past three years, the company has increased its active digital banking users by 5 million to 41 million and has seen the percentage of sales completed digitally jump from 31% to 49% over the same stretch. Digital transactions are substantially cheaper for the company than in-person or phone-based interactions.</p><p>With profits expected to jump considerably over the next two years, Bank of America's recent pullback is the ideal time for opportunistic investors to go shopping.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Surefire Warren Buffett Stocks That Are Screaming Buys in April</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Surefire Warren Buffett Stocks That Are Screaming Buys in April\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-08 23:02 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/07/3-warren-buffett-stocks-screaming-buys-in-april/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>When $Berkshire Hathaway( BRK.A )( BRK.B ) CEO Warren Buffett speaks, Wall Street and investors pay close attention.

Even though broadband isn't the high-growth trend it was in the 2000s, it's still a steady producer of cash flow and can encourage add-on sales for existing wireless subscribers.If you need a few more good reasons to buy Verizon right now, consider its valuation and dividend. This is a company that's averaged a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 11.5 and a dividend yield of a little over 4% over the past five years. Investors can currently buy shares of Verizon for about nine times forward-year earnings and will receive an almost 5% dividend yield for their patience.Bank of AmericaThe third surefire Warren Buffett stock that stands out as a screaming buy in April is Bank of America. BofA is Berkshire Hathaway's second-largest holding.Not to sound like a broken record, but bank stocks have been under pressure in recent weeks as a result of interest-rate movements. But rather than worrying specifically about a rising-rate environment, Wall Street and investors appear most concerned about the inversion of the two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury yields. While not every yield-curve inversion is followed by a recession, every recession dating back multiple decades has been preceded by a two-year/10-year yield-curve inversion.Interestingly, though, the cyclical nature of the banking industry can actually be viewed as a positive if you're a long-term investor. Despite recessions being an inevitable part of the economic cycle, periods of contraction often last for only a few months or a couple of quarters.By comparison, economic expansions are measured in years. This means bank stocks like BofA tend to benefit from the natural expansion of the U.S. economy over time.What makes Bank of America such an intriguing investment opportunity at the moment is its interest-rate sensitivity. No big bank stands to benefit more from a rising-rate environment than BofA. When the company reported its year-end results in January, it noted that a 100 basis-point parallel shift in the interest-rate yield curve would bring in an estimated $6.5 billion in added net interest income over the next 12 months. With the nation's central bank forecasting north of 100 basis points in cumulative hikes in 2022, Bank of America is potentially set for a windfall of extra interest income.Also, as I've previously pointed out, Bank of America's digitization efforts are progressing nicely. Over the past three years, the company has increased its active digital banking users by 5 million to 41 million and has seen the percentage of sales completed digitally jump from 31% to 49% over the same stretch. Digital transactions are substantially cheaper for the company than in-person or phone-based interactions.With profits expected to jump considerably over the next two years, Bank of America's recent pullback is the ideal time for opportunistic investors to go shopping.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
