(NASDAQ:TSLA) for a while. I have covered numerous subjects related to the electric vehicle (“EV”) company over the years, but I have returned often to one in particular: Tesla’s solar energy business.</p>\n<p>It has been a while since I lasttook a look under the hoodof Tesla’s solar division. With the first two quarters of 2021 in the rearview mirror, it feels like now is a good time to revisit the long-struggling business unit.</p>\n<p>Much has changed for Tesla Solar in 2021, little of it for the good. Let’s discuss why this is the case.</p>\n<p>Solar Deployments In H1 2021: Still In A Long-Term Downtrend</p>\n<p>As I have&nbsp;discussed at length&nbsp;on&nbsp;numerous occasions&nbsp;over the years, Tesla Solar has been in material multi-year decline from a deployments perspective. Thus, when Tesla reported Q1 2021 earnings, I naturally looked to the solar deployment numbers to see if the negative pattern had continued. As it turned out, Tesla had managed to achieve a major sequential jump in deployments, a fact the company was quick tocrow about in its Q1 investor letter:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Solar Retrofit and Solar Roof Solar deployments reached 92 MW in Q1, our strongest quarter in 2.5 years. Solar Roof deployments grew 9x compared to the same period last year.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>Tesla reported solar deployments to the tune of 92 megawatts (“MW”) in Q1, the most it had managed in years. Under the circumstances, Tesla can hardly be blamed for having wanted to highlight such a marked improvement in chart form:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7270ea980168a8e2976a38fd80b6b5c7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"335\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>The chart above, which was included in the Q1 investor letter, certainly looks like it could be a sign of a turnaround in the making. However, its relatively limited timescale also limits its usefulness to investors and analysts interested in understanding the long-term performance and trajectory of Tesla's solar business. Charting the full history of Tesla's quarterly solar deployments through Q1 2021 offers a rather different perspective:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dab180dd817e9d4db21ed6ff4014e0d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"273\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>I hardly have to remind investors that one quarter of growth does not a pattern make. If Tesla could sustain that growth into Q2, then one might be able to talk legitimately about a turnaround. As it turned out, Tesladeployed just 85 MW in Q2, a more than7.5% sequential drop:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/43e076db4124ae5b339c1c78e6f33502\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TeslaCharts; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>Tesla's solar deployments were not just lower in Q2 than in Q1, however. At 85MW, Tesla actually managed one 1MW less than it did in Q4 2020, despite seasonal impacts traditionally weakening year-end solar deployment rates. That would seem to put paid to any notion that Tesla's solar operations have been making a significant or sustainable turnaround.</p>\n<p>Deployments may have climbed significantly from their nadir in the first half of last year, but they remain a pale shadow of what Tesla was managing five years ago. They are also radically lower than what Tesla itself hadprojected in 2016when it was in the process of acquiring SolarCity:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0a31640e43eea612f1ca8aba8bea3ae\" tg-width=\"498\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: @C_S_Skeptic; GLJ Research; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>In 2016, Tesla was predicting solar deployments in excess of 500MW per quarter starting in 2017. We are now mid-way through 2021 and quarterly solar deployment levels stand at less than 20% of that figure.</p>\n<p>Product Progress: Solar Roof Still Not Ready For Prime Time</p>\n<p>Unveiled with great fanfare in October 2016,the Solar Roof was touted from the start as the future of solar energy technology. At the time, CEO Elon Musk was insistent that the Solar Roof was not merely a concept in development, but was actually a fully functional technology ready to enter full-scale production. Musk told his rapt audience that the acquisition of SolarCity would facilitate the rapid rollout of the Solar Roof, providing one of the first public justifications for the merger between Tesla and the virtually insolvent solar installer that had been founded by two of Musk's cousins, and of which Musk was then chairman of the board of directors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0e6430233a156f81e842006c4eac751\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>The Solar Roof unveiling event may have helped smooth the way for the SolarCity tie-up, but it did so at the price of full transparency about the technology's readiness. Musk's claim about the Solar Roof's immediate viability was proven false in short order, as it quickly became apparent that the Solar Roof was still very much a concept in development, and with little near-term prospect of commercialization. Even then, few could have guessed how long that design and development process would take.</p>\n<p>A review of the progress to date on the long-promised but oft-delayed Solar Roof reveals a business reality far different from what has long been promised by Tesla’s solar cheerleaders. In the years since it was unveiled, the Solar Roof has gone through multipleredesigns and rebrands, even as Musk has repeatedly assured investors and the public that full-scale commercial production was imminent. In March 2019, he declared that 2019 would be \"the Year of the Solar Roof.\" In July of the same year, Musk tweeted that Solar Roof production wasaccelerating toward 1,000 units roofs per week:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6bbff17a88092785ef1227e94c6e8f19\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"251\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Elon Musk; Twitter</span></p>\n<p>This claim raised plenty of eyebrows in the investment community. Their skepticism proved well deserved as it soon became apparent that the actual Solar Roof production and installation rates were far lower. Even Electrek, a website well known for its consistently bullish Tesla commentary, felt compelled to call Musk out on his claim. According to Electrek, Musk's tweet was \"a bit of an exaggeration\" and that the actual production rate at the time was closer to 500 Solar Roofs per week. However, even that reduced projection appears to overstate the level of steady-state production and installation by a significant margin.</p>\n<p>The Solar Roof has seen its fortunes improve little in 2021 thus far. According to renewable energy industry journalist Eric Wesoff, Tesla had&nbsp;yet to install 1,000 Solar Roofs total&nbsp;as recently as this April. This pessimistic view was further reinforced last month when the Wall Street Journal&nbsp;reported&nbsp;that the Securities and Exchange Commission had already confronted Tesla over Musk's dubious prior Solar Roof claims:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “In correspondence sent to Tesla in 2019 and 2020, the SEC said tweets Mr. Musk wrote about Tesla’s solar roof production volumes and its stock price hadn’t undergone the required preapproval by Tesla’s lawyers. The communications, which haven’t been previously reported, spotlight the running tension between the nation’s top corporate regulator and Mr. Musk, who publicly mocked the SEC even after settling fraud claims with the agency. The SEC told Tesla in May 2020 that the company had failed ‘to enforce these procedures and controls despite repeated violations by Mr. Musk.’ The letter, signed by Steven Buchholz, a senior SEC official in its San Francisco office, added: ‘Tesla has abdicated the duties required of it by the court’s order.’\"\n</blockquote>\n<p>Whether installation speed has picked up meaningfully over the past few months is unclear thanks in no small part to Tesla's inconsistency with regard to reporting on the subject. Thus, while Tesla's Q1 investor letter boasted that Solar Roof installations \"grew 9x compared to the same period last year,\" it neglected to provide an exact number of MW deployed. The Q2 update offered still less clarity, failing to mention even the growth rate other than to say that deployments \"grew substantially\" on a sequential and year-over-year basis.</p>\n<p><b>Investor's Eye View</b></p>\n<p>Whatever way you slice it, Tesla’s seemingly endless struggle to launch a viable solar roof product at scale is problematic for a company that is valued based on a highly optimistic growth narrative. Tesla's market capitalization, which currently stands in excess of $670 billion, is nearly five times greater than that of Volkswagen AG (OTCPK:VWAGY), the world's largest automaker. That is in spite of the fact that Tesla currently has barely 5% of Volkswagen's annual automotive production capacity. In other words, Tesla is currently priced as if it will not only surpass the likes of Volkswagen in terms of production and sales volume, but will radically exceed them.</p>\n<p>While irrational exuberance about an EV-dominated future can explain some of Tesla's eye-watering share price, it is not the only factor. Tesla's valuation is also the result of the company's efforts to position itself as \"more than a car company.\" Solar has always been a core component of this narrative, yet it has failed to live up to the hype. Deployments remain far below the highs set half a decade ago, even as&nbsp;customer satisfaction&nbsp;has continued to fall.</p>\n<p>Moreover, the fundamental economics of Tesla's solar operations have always been shaky at best. Indeed, even as Tesla's automotive operations have inched toward breakeven, the&nbsp;margins for its solar business remain painfully negative. That is hardly a glowing endorsement of a business unit that is supposed to add to Tesla's value proposition, not detract from it.</p>\n<p>In sum, Tesla's valuation is the product of high expectations and belief in the company's ability to expand its offerings far beyond the conventional automotive realm. Based on the performance of its solar energy business to date, it would seem prudent to revise some of those expectations downward.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Inside The Deterioration Of Tesla's Solar Business</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\">\nInside The Deterioration Of Tesla's Solar Business\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-24 11:55 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4451383-inside-the-deterioration-of-teslas-solar-business><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nTesla's $670 billion market cap is based in part on the belief that it is \"more than a car company\"; Tesla's solar energy business has fed this narrative.\nWhile treated like a value-add by ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4451383-inside-the-deterioration-of-teslas-solar-business\">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/4451383-inside-the-deterioration-of-teslas-solar-business","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1187997976","content_text":"Summary\n\nTesla's $670 billion market cap is based in part on the belief that it is \"more than a car company\"; Tesla's solar energy business has fed this narrative.\nWhile treated like a value-add by Tesla's boosters, its solar unit has in practice been a costly millstone; margins remain deeply negative.\nTesla's solar deployments have fallen far from highs set years ago, with little prospect of a reversal.\nHopes that Tesla's Solar Roof could reinvigorate deployment rates have faded amid multi-year delays and persistent installation bottlenecks.\nAs Tesla's solar business fades, it may threaten the company's broader growth narrative, as well as its vaunted share price.\n\nRoschetzkyIstockPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nAs any of my longtime readers can undoubtedly attest, I have been tracking Tesla Inc.

In March 2019, he declared that 2019 would be \"the Year of the Solar Roof.\" In July of the same year, Musk tweeted that Solar Roof production wasaccelerating toward 1,000 units roofs per week:\nSource: Elon Musk; Twitter\nThis claim raised plenty of eyebrows in the investment community. Their skepticism proved well deserved as it soon became apparent that the actual Solar Roof production and installation rates were far lower. Even Electrek, a website well known for its consistently bullish Tesla commentary, felt compelled to call Musk out on his claim. According to Electrek, Musk's tweet was \"a bit of an exaggeration\" and that the actual production rate at the time was closer to 500 Solar Roofs per week. However, even that reduced projection appears to overstate the level of steady-state production and installation by a significant margin.\nThe Solar Roof has seen its fortunes improve little in 2021 thus far. According to renewable energy industry journalist Eric Wesoff, Tesla had yet to install 1,000 Solar Roofs total as recently as this April. This pessimistic view was further reinforced last month when the Wall Street Journal reported that the Securities and Exchange Commission had already confronted Tesla over Musk's dubious prior Solar Roof claims:\n\n “In correspondence sent to Tesla in 2019 and 2020, the SEC said tweets Mr. Musk wrote about Tesla’s solar roof production volumes and its stock price hadn’t undergone the required preapproval by Tesla’s lawyers. The communications, which haven’t been previously reported, spotlight the running tension between the nation’s top corporate regulator and Mr. Musk, who publicly mocked the SEC even after settling fraud claims with the agency. The SEC told Tesla in May 2020 that the company had failed ‘to enforce these procedures and controls despite repeated violations by Mr. Musk.’ The letter, signed by Steven Buchholz, a senior SEC official in its San Francisco office, added: ‘Tesla has abdicated the duties required of it by the court’s order.’\"\n\nWhether installation speed has picked up meaningfully over the past few months is unclear thanks in no small part to Tesla's inconsistency with regard to reporting on the subject. Thus, while Tesla's Q1 investor letter boasted that Solar Roof installations \"grew 9x compared to the same period last year,\" it neglected to provide an exact number of MW deployed. The Q2 update offered still less clarity, failing to mention even the growth rate other than to say that deployments \"grew substantially\" on a sequential and year-over-year basis.\nInvestor's Eye View\nWhatever way you slice it, Tesla’s seemingly endless struggle to launch a viable solar roof product at scale is problematic for a company that is valued based on a highly optimistic growth narrative. Tesla's market capitalization, which currently stands in excess of $670 billion, is nearly five times greater than that of Volkswagen AG (OTCPK:VWAGY), the world's largest automaker. That is in spite of the fact that Tesla currently has barely 5% of Volkswagen's annual automotive production capacity. In other words, Tesla is currently priced as if it will not only surpass the likes of Volkswagen in terms of production and sales volume, but will radically exceed them.\nWhile irrational exuberance about an EV-dominated future can explain some of Tesla's eye-watering share price, it is not the only factor. Tesla's valuation is also the result of the company's efforts to position itself as \"more than a car company.\" Solar has always been a core component of this narrative, yet it has failed to live up to the hype. Deployments remain far below the highs set half a decade ago, even as customer satisfaction has continued to fall.\nMoreover, the fundamental economics of Tesla's solar operations have always been shaky at best. Indeed, even as Tesla's automotive operations have inched toward breakeven, the margins for its solar business remain painfully negative. That is hardly a glowing endorsement of a business unit that is supposed to add to Tesla's value proposition, not detract from it.\nIn sum, Tesla's valuation is the product of high expectations and belief in the company's ability to expand its offerings far beyond the conventional automotive realm. Based on the performance of its solar energy business to date, it would seem prudent to revise some of those expectations downward.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":465,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":832277361,"gmtCreate":1629646767053,"gmtModify":1676530085477,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"B","listText":"B","text":"B","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/832277361","repostId":"2161374148","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":576,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":836852669,"gmtCreate":1629471554351,"gmtModify":1676530053192,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cmt","listText":"Cmt","text":"Cmt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/836852669","repostId":"2160710591","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":280,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":831828855,"gmtCreate":1629301837677,"gmtModify":1676529998077,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cmt","listText":"Cmt","text":"Cmt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/831828855","repostId":"2160737919","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":516,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833808888,"gmtCreate":1629213276144,"gmtModify":1676529969442,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/833808888","repostId":"2160062252","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160062252","pubTimestamp":1629212340,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2160062252?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 22:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These Growth Stocks Could Help You Beat a Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160062252","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Long-term investors have the luxury of viewing market downturns as buying opportunities.","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>Long-term investors have the luxury of viewing market downturns as buying opportunities.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Bear markets can happen quickly, but bull markets tend to last longer and run higher.</li>\n <li>AI chipmaker Nvidia is expanding its data center compute platform.</li>\n <li>Salesforce.com helps its clients build and maintain meaningful customer relationships.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Here's the bad news: Since 1957, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has fallen by 20% (or more) on 10 different occasions.

The bulk of that decline is due to decreasing open interest in Bitcoin futures, meaning traders let their contracts roll off without renewing.\nThe outflows might even be bigger, if not for the fact that the $30 billion Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (ticker GBTC) -- the largest crypto fund -- doesn’t allow for share redemptions. That’s after shares of the trust ballooned by the hundreds of millions earlier this year amid the crypto craze. As a result, GBTC has traded at a persistent discount to its underlying Bitcoin since March.\nBut still, in the eyes of Bloomberg Intelligence’s James Seyffart, it’s just a matter of time before investors flood back into crypto funds.\n“I think there’s still demand for Bitcoin products that people can access on the traditional financial system rails, if you will,” Seyffart said. “Flows tend to follow performance in areas and products like this, so with the recent weeks of performance for Bitcoin, I wouldn’t be surprised to see those flow numbers potentially turn around.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":161,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":895070211,"gmtCreate":1628697337433,"gmtModify":1676529826237,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bt","listText":"Bt","text":"Bt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/895070211","repostId":"2158528016","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2158528016","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1628694066,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2158528016?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-11 23:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why AppHarvest Shares Are Getting Slammed Today","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2158528016","media":"Benzinga","summary":"AppHarvest Inc (NASDAQ: APPH) is trading significantly lower Wednesday after the company announced worse-than-expected second-quarter financial results and cut guidance.","content":"<p><b>AppHarvest Inc</b> (NASDAQ:APPH) is trading significantly lower Wednesday after the company announced worse-than-expected second-quarter financial results and cut guidance.</p>\n<p>AppHarvest reported a quarterly earnings loss of 32 cents per share, which came in below the estimate for a loss of 19 cents per share.

Shares in his higher-profile holdings, like SOFI stock, along with<b>Clover Health</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CLOV</u></b>) stock have again lost their luster as well.</p>\n<p>SoFi has fallen back once again. But don’t assume it’s bottomed out. Not as much to do with any issues with the company itself. Instead, due to economy-wide factors that may result in it making another move to lower price levels. Again, as I’ve discussed previously, rising interest rates could have a big negative impact on its share price. Even as rising rates will be good for the company’s lending operations, this could be more than countered by valuation contraction.</p>\n<p>Giving things another look, it’s clear there’s another risk factor that could knock down the stock once again. That’s the potential for economic growth to start slowing down.</p>\n<p><b>High Valuation</b></p>\n<p>SOFI stock may be down big from its all-time high. But at today’s levels, it remains a “priced for perfection” situation. With projections calling for high double-digit growth, and recent results pointing to itbeating guidance, investors continue to have no trouble giving this stock a rich valuation.</p>\n<p>At $15 per share, shares trade for around 8.4x estimated 2022 revenues. Some, including<i>InvestorPlace’s</i>Larry Ramer, have questioned whether it makes sense to value this companymore like a tech firm than a bank. I also see this as an area of concern. Yet I don’t expect this factor alone to be what knocks it down to lower prices.</p>\n<p>What will? Again, it’s a sooner-than-expected rise in interest rates that could send shares down to even lower prices. But that’s not the only thing that could do so. Even if the Federal Reserve doesn’t turn on a dime, and shift from dovish to hawkish monetary policy, SOFI stock could find itself in trouble. How? If it starts delivering disappointing quarterly results.</p>\n<p>Sure, this may not happen in the immediate future. Yet, the above-average economic growth seen during the pandemic recovery/reopeningcould be running out of gas. If the economy starts to slow? It may get tougher for SoFi to live up to the high expectations currently priced into shares. Along with the valuation contraction risk, this is something else that could it down before it starts to rally once again.</p>\n<p><b>No Rush to Dive in at Today’s Prices</b></p>\n<p>Now may seem like an opportune time to scoop up SoFi shares on the cheap. But after selling off again, I wouldn’t expect any sort of rapid recovery. Just like a few weeks back, the risk of valuation contraction runs high. As more comes out of today’s still-booming economy could be set to slow down? The risk of underwhelming results in future quarters is starting to loom as well.</p>\n<p>So, with more negatives than positives, SOFI stock is likely to either going to trade sideways in the short term or worse, head down to lower prices. With this in mind, even investors who believe it’s a long-term winner shouldn’t hastily dive into it.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Expect More Underwhelming Performance for SoFi Shares</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\">\nExpect More Underwhelming Performance for SoFi Shares\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-01 10:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/07/sofi-stock-expect-continued-underwhelming-performance/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The odds of a rapid rebound for fintech play SOFI stock appear dim.\n\nAsSoFiTechnologies(NASDAQ:SOFI) stock falls back to around $15 per share, is now the time to buy?

But don’t assume it’s bottomed out. Not as much to do with any issues with the company itself. Instead, due to economy-wide factors that may result in it making another move to lower price levels. Again, as I’ve discussed previously, rising interest rates could have a big negative impact on its share price. Even as rising rates will be good for the company’s lending operations, this could be more than countered by valuation contraction.\nGiving things another look, it’s clear there’s another risk factor that could knock down the stock once again. That’s the potential for economic growth to start slowing down.\nHigh Valuation\nSOFI stock may be down big from its all-time high. But at today’s levels, it remains a “priced for perfection” situation. With projections calling for high double-digit growth, and recent results pointing to itbeating guidance, investors continue to have no trouble giving this stock a rich valuation.\nAt $15 per share, shares trade for around 8.4x estimated 2022 revenues. Some, includingInvestorPlace’sLarry Ramer, have questioned whether it makes sense to value this companymore like a tech firm than a bank. I also see this as an area of concern. Yet I don’t expect this factor alone to be what knocks it down to lower prices.\nWhat will? Again, it’s a sooner-than-expected rise in interest rates that could send shares down to even lower prices. But that’s not the only thing that could do so. Even if the Federal Reserve doesn’t turn on a dime, and shift from dovish to hawkish monetary policy, SOFI stock could find itself in trouble. How? If it starts delivering disappointing quarterly results.\nSure, this may not happen in the immediate future. Yet, the above-average economic growth seen during the pandemic recovery/reopeningcould be running out of gas. If the economy starts to slow? It may get tougher for SoFi to live up to the high expectations currently priced into shares. Along with the valuation contraction risk, this is something else that could it down before it starts to rally once again.\nNo Rush to Dive in at Today’s Prices\nNow may seem like an opportune time to scoop up SoFi shares on the cheap. But after selling off again, I wouldn’t expect any sort of rapid recovery. Just like a few weeks back, the risk of valuation contraction runs high. As more comes out of today’s still-booming economy could be set to slow down? The risk of underwhelming results in future quarters is starting to loom as well.\nSo, with more negatives than positives, SOFI stock is likely to either going to trade sideways in the short term or worse, head down to lower prices. With this in mind, even investors who believe it’s a long-term winner shouldn’t hastily dive into it.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":359,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":891089118,"gmtCreate":1628307328534,"gmtModify":1703504886420,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cmt","listText":"Cmt","text":"Cmt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/891089118","repostId":"1159359820","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159359820","pubTimestamp":1628264299,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1159359820?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-06 23:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Space Race, Nasdaq, IBM, Nvidia: What to Watch When the Stock Market Opens","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159359820","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Stock futures are higher after Monday’s slide on Wall Street.\n\n\nTo the moon!

And outstanding second-quarter earnings from these two pot stocks in particular are excellent examples of the sector's high growth and exciting upside.</p>\n<p>Florida-based&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCNNF\">Trulieve Cannabis Corporation</a> </b>(OTC:&nbsp;TCNNF)<b>&nbsp;</b>reported another great quarter with outstanding revenue growth and positive earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Meanwhile, marijuana REIT<b> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IIPR\">Innovative Industrial Properties Inc</a> </b>(NYSE:&nbsp;IIPR) not only grew revenue, but also profits. Both are profitable companies expanding at a rapid rate to capture the cannabis market in the U.S. Let's dig into their second-quarter results and determine why they could be the best fit for your portfolio.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F639496%2Fpiggy-bank.jpeg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty&nbsp;Images.</p>\n<h2>Trulieve Cannabis' Q2 turned out even better than Q1</h2>\n<p>The credit for Trulieve's consistent performance mostly goes to its dominance in its home state, where it operates 85 stores. Its total revenue grew 78% year over year to $215 million. Adjusted EBITDA came in at $95 million, a 55% jump from the prior-year quarter. The company also generated net profits of $41 million, a 116% year-over-year increase. Q2 marks the company's 14th consecutive quarter of profitability, which is impressive considering how its Canadian counterparts are struggling to generate profits. </p>\n<p>For the six months ended June 30, the company has reached $409 million in revenue. If it continues to grow at this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends 2021 with more than $1 billion. Note that these numbers don't include the revenue generated from the <b>Harvest Health &amp; Recreation&nbsp;</b>acquisition (once it completes), so expect them to climb even higher. Trulieve's purchase of Arizona-based Harvest Health in May pushed its store count to a total of 140, and it now boasts 3 million square feet of cultivation capacity in the U.S. The move also gives Trulieve access to markets in Arizona (which recently legalized recreational cannabis), Pennsylvania, and Maryland.</p>\n<p>Initially, investors were concerned with Trulieve's focus only on the Florida market; I was too. But a smart company knows to strengthen its roots first and then focus on expanding, and I applaud Trulieve for doing just that. The company used its capital resources well and continued generating profits first, without going on an acquisition spree. This made room for the Harvest acquisition to bolster Trulieve's presence in key cannabis markets across the nation. The company had cash and cash equivalents of $289 million and net debt of $118 million at the end of Q2. </p>\n<p>The only concern I have is that most of its revenue generated during the quarter came from the sale of medical cannabis products (all that's currently legal in Florida). Trulieve will need to add focus on recreational revenue going forward. Markets in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NWY\">New York</a>, Arizona, and New Jersey (which recently legalized recreational marijuana) present a tremendous opportunity for U.S. cannabis companies, but Trulieve has no stores in any of these states yet. </p>\n<p>Analysts expect a 132% upside for Trulieve's stock in the next 12 months, which I think is possible looking at the rate the company is growing. </p>\n<h2>This REIT's stock popped after another strong quarter</h2>\n<p>Innovative Industrial Properties is not directly linked to cannabis, but management has taken good advantage of the marijuana boom in the U.S. Its business model, in which it acquires properties from medical cannabis companies and leases them back to the sellers, has worked wonders for both parties; because cannabis is illegal at the federal level in the U.S., access to capital can be hard for marijuana companies to find in other ways. Besides allowing investors indirect access to the industry, Innovative is also a real estate investment trust (or REIT), meaning it is mandated by law to pay 90% of its taxable income as dividends.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>As expected, Innovative's second quarter showed another great performance, and its stock is up 10% since those results were released Aug. 5. In the quarter ended June 30, total revenue jumped 101% year over year to $49 million. (The company's main source of income is rental income paid by the cannabis companies.) Rising revenue also brought in another quarter of profits. Net income grew to $29 million from $13 million in the year-ago period, and adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, surged by 105% to $43 million for the quarter. </p>\n<p>For a REIT, AFFO plays the same role as net earnings do for a non-REIT, showing how much cash is available to be paid to shareholders as dividends. Rising AFFO is a good sign, meaning a business (in this case, Innovative) is capable of consistently paying dividends. The company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.40 per share on July 15, which was an increase of 6% from the first quarter and a 32% hike from the year-ago period. It marked the 11th dividend increase since its initial public offering in 2016. </p>\n<p>Currently, the company owns 73 properties in 18 states totaling 6.8 million square feet of space; 100% of its properties are leased out by cannabis companies. Between April 1 and Aug. 4, the company made five acquisitions of new properties and three lease amendments for existing properties.&nbsp;Some of its tenants include popular cannabis players <b>Cresco Labs, Trulieve Cannabis</b>,&nbsp;<b>Curaleaf Holdings</b>, and&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GNBC\">Green</a> Thumb Industries</b>.

And outstanding second-quarter earnings from these two pot stocks in particular are excellent examples of the sector's high growth and exciting upside.\nFlorida-based Trulieve Cannabis Corporation (OTC: TCNNF) reported another great quarter with outstanding revenue growth and positive earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Meanwhile, marijuana REIT Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (NYSE: IIPR) not only grew revenue, but also profits. Both are profitable companies expanding at a rapid rate to capture the cannabis market in the U.S. Let's dig into their second-quarter results and determine why they could be the best fit for your portfolio.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nTrulieve Cannabis' Q2 turned out even better than Q1\nThe credit for Trulieve's consistent performance mostly goes to its dominance in its home state, where it operates 85 stores. Its total revenue grew 78% year over year to $215 million. Adjusted EBITDA came in at $95 million, a 55% jump from the prior-year quarter. The company also generated net profits of $41 million, a 116% year-over-year increase. Q2 marks the company's 14th consecutive quarter of profitability, which is impressive considering how its Canadian counterparts are struggling to generate profits. \nFor the six months ended June 30, the company has reached $409 million in revenue. If it continues to grow at this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends 2021 with more than $1 billion. Note that these numbers don't include the revenue generated from the Harvest Health & Recreation acquisition (once it completes), so expect them to climb even higher. Trulieve's purchase of Arizona-based Harvest Health in May pushed its store count to a total of 140, and it now boasts 3 million square feet of cultivation capacity in the U.S. The move also gives Trulieve access to markets in Arizona (which recently legalized recreational cannabis), Pennsylvania, and Maryland.\nInitially, investors were concerned with Trulieve's focus only on the Florida market; I was too. But a smart company knows to strengthen its roots first and then focus on expanding, and I applaud Trulieve for doing just that. The company used its capital resources well and continued generating profits first, without going on an acquisition spree. This made room for the Harvest acquisition to bolster Trulieve's presence in key cannabis markets across the nation. The company had cash and cash equivalents of $289 million and net debt of $118 million at the end of Q2. \nThe only concern I have is that most of its revenue generated during the quarter came from the sale of medical cannabis products (all that's currently legal in Florida). Trulieve will need to add focus on recreational revenue going forward. Markets in New York, Arizona, and New Jersey (which recently legalized recreational marijuana) present a tremendous opportunity for U.S. cannabis companies, but Trulieve has no stores in any of these states yet. \nAnalysts expect a 132% upside for Trulieve's stock in the next 12 months, which I think is possible looking at the rate the company is growing. \nThis REIT's stock popped after another strong quarter\nInnovative Industrial Properties is not directly linked to cannabis, but management has taken good advantage of the marijuana boom in the U.S. Its business model, in which it acquires properties from medical cannabis companies and leases them back to the sellers, has worked wonders for both parties; because cannabis is illegal at the federal level in the U.S., access to capital can be hard for marijuana companies to find in other ways. Besides allowing investors indirect access to the industry, Innovative is also a real estate investment trust (or REIT), meaning it is mandated by law to pay 90% of its taxable income as dividends. \nAs expected, Innovative's second quarter showed another great performance, and its stock is up 10% since those results were released Aug. 5. In the quarter ended June 30, total revenue jumped 101% year over year to $49 million. (The company's main source of income is rental income paid by the cannabis companies.) Rising revenue also brought in another quarter of profits. Net income grew to $29 million from $13 million in the year-ago period, and adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, surged by 105% to $43 million for the quarter. \nFor a REIT, AFFO plays the same role as net earnings do for a non-REIT, showing how much cash is available to be paid to shareholders as dividends. Rising AFFO is a good sign, meaning a business (in this case, Innovative) is capable of consistently paying dividends. The company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.40 per share on July 15, which was an increase of 6% from the first quarter and a 32% hike from the year-ago period. It marked the 11th dividend increase since its initial public offering in 2016. \nCurrently, the company owns 73 properties in 18 states totaling 6.8 million square feet of space; 100% of its properties are leased out by cannabis companies. Between April 1 and Aug. 4, the company made five acquisitions of new properties and three lease amendments for existing properties. Some of its tenants include popular cannabis players Cresco Labs, Trulieve Cannabis, Curaleaf Holdings, and Green Thumb Industries. These companies' expansion plans, and ever-expanding state legalization, lead me to believe Innovative will continue to grow. \nIf you want to create wealth by investing, you need to keep a long time frame in mind. Growth stocks need time to show their full potential, especially in a nascent industry like marijuana. Both Trulieve and Innovative have strong financials and can flourish as the industry expands. Risk-averse investors can start with a small investment in these high-growth pot stocks that have the potential to double their money five to 10 years down the line.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":280,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":831828855,"gmtCreate":1629301837677,"gmtModify":1676529998077,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cmt","listText":"Cmt","text":"Cmt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/831828855","repostId":"2160737919","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160737919","pubTimestamp":1629300315,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2160737919?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-18 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Tuya Stock Is Falling Today","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160737919","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Investors weren't happy with management's guidance for the third quarter.","content":"<h2><b>What happened</b></h2>\n<p>Shares of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TUYA\">Tuya Inc.</a></b>, an Internet-of-Things platform company, fell this morning after the company reported its second-quarter results.</p>\n<p>The tech stock&nbsp;was down by 19.9% as of 10:30 a.m. EDT.</p>\n<h2><b>So what&nbsp;</b></h2>\n<p>Tuya's sales in the second quarter skyrocketed 118% to $84.7 million, which outpaced Wall Street's consensus estimate of $78 million.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e17e377befe9cc5140689adecad8b628\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>The company's adjusted net loss per American depositary share of $0.04 matched analysts' consensus estimate for the second quarter.

Right now it looks like it will.”</p>\n<p>Do others agree? Below we have excerpted some analyst and strategist reactions to today's report.</p>\n<p><b>Katherine Judge, CIBC Capital Markets:</b></p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>“With many states set to see the unemployment benefit top-ups expire in early September, healthy job gains should continue ahead, in line with elevated job openings. This print should be enough to allow the Fed to announce an early 2022 tapering of QE at the September meeting.”</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Chris Turner, head of foreign exchange strategy at ING Bank:</b></p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>The stronger-than-expected jobs report makes it more likely that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell may “drop heavy hints” at the Jackson Hole Symposium later this month, that the central bank may prepare to start tapering over subsequent months. The data is positive for the dollar versus the low-yielders such as the yen and euro. Still, the outlook for the greenback “should not necessarily damage the risk environment....Unless U.S. 10 year yields spike aggressively, high yield EM currencies should see demand on dips”</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Carl Riccadonna, Bloomberg Intelligence economist:</b></p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>The jobs report is “sturdy, but not as strong as it looks.” In addition to the modest fade in the pace of private-sector hiring (703,000 in July vs. 769,000 in June), much of the July gain occurred in the tenuous leisure and hospitality sector -- and that could easily reverse due to Covid-19, he said. This already appears to be evident in metrics such as OpenTable bookings. “So if we look at private-sector hiring outside of leisure and hospitality, today’s reported gain was 323,000, a bit slower than the prior month’s 375,000.</i>\n <i><b>This tells us that underlying economic momentum is steady-state, not accelerating.”</b></i>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b><i>Neil Dutta, economist at Renaissance Macro</i></b>:</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>The FOMC could upgrade its language in the September statement to say that the economy is “on track for substantial further progress,” which would lead to a declaration of achievement of substantial further progress in “November at the earliest.”&nbsp; Tapering, in that event, could begin as early as December.</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>JJ Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade:</b></p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>“It’s a great number, there’s no way around that, it really is an impressive number. But I think if we didn’t have this new delta variant coming up, the conversation we’d be having is, is this inflationary, does this mean we’ll go into a taper, etc. But because of the delta variant, until we know a little bit more about that, I think it throws a different wrench in there, where we’re like, OK, now we’re in wait-and-see mode there. Great to see that the jobs are progressing and the economy is progressing -- hopefully by the next jobs report we’ll know if the economy can keep progressing at this pace.

Great to see that the jobs are progressing and the economy is progressing -- hopefully by the next jobs report we’ll know if the economy can keep progressing at this pace. Right now it looks like it will.”\nDo others agree? Below we have excerpted some analyst and strategist reactions to today's report.\nKatherine Judge, CIBC Capital Markets:\n\n“With many states set to see the unemployment benefit top-ups expire in early September, healthy job gains should continue ahead, in line with elevated job openings. This print should be enough to allow the Fed to announce an early 2022 tapering of QE at the September meeting.”\n\nChris Turner, head of foreign exchange strategy at ING Bank:\n\nThe stronger-than-expected jobs report makes it more likely that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell may “drop heavy hints” at the Jackson Hole Symposium later this month, that the central bank may prepare to start tapering over subsequent months. The data is positive for the dollar versus the low-yielders such as the yen and euro. Still, the outlook for the greenback “should not necessarily damage the risk environment....Unless U.S. 10 year yields spike aggressively, high yield EM currencies should see demand on dips”\n\nCarl Riccadonna, Bloomberg Intelligence economist:\n\nThe jobs report is “sturdy, but not as strong as it looks.” In addition to the modest fade in the pace of private-sector hiring (703,000 in July vs. 769,000 in June), much of the July gain occurred in the tenuous leisure and hospitality sector -- and that could easily reverse due to Covid-19, he said. This already appears to be evident in metrics such as OpenTable bookings. “So if we look at private-sector hiring outside of leisure and hospitality, today’s reported gain was 323,000, a bit slower than the prior month’s 375,000.\nThis tells us that underlying economic momentum is steady-state, not accelerating.”\n\nNeil Dutta, economist at Renaissance Macro:\n\nThe FOMC could upgrade its language in the September statement to say that the economy is “on track for substantial further progress,” which would lead to a declaration of achievement of substantial further progress in “November at the earliest.”  Tapering, in that event, could begin as early as December.\n\nJJ Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade:\n\n“It’s a great number, there’s no way around that, it really is an impressive number. But I think if we didn’t have this new delta variant coming up, the conversation we’d be having is, is this inflationary, does this mean we’ll go into a taper, etc. But because of the delta variant, until we know a little bit more about that, I think it throws a different wrench in there, where we’re like, OK, now we’re in wait-and-see mode there. Great to see that the jobs are progressing and the economy is progressing -- hopefully by the next jobs report we’ll know if the economy can keep progressing at this pace. Right now it looks like it will.”\n\nRoberto Perli, head of global policy research at Cornerstone Macro:\n\n“The Fed will have one more employment report before the September meeting. Assuming it will be good as well, a plausible base case is for the FOMC to say at the September meeting that the labor market continued to make good progress, and if the progress continues at the recent pace the committee will be in a position to start tapering its asset purchases over the next few months.  That would put the onset of tapering in late December or early January.“So bottom line I think the timeline remains the same.  It would be hard to start tapering in September because it would go against both the ‘coming meetings’ (plural) language in the July statement and the notion that the FOMC would provide ample notice before actually starting tapering.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":210,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":894088487,"gmtCreate":1628777896349,"gmtModify":1676529852428,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment&nbsp;","listText":"Comment&nbsp;","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/894088487","repostId":"1182304144","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1182304144","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":1628777611,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1182304144?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-12 22:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Technologies shares gain nearly 12% in early trading as raising sales forecast on strong government uptake.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1182304144","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Palantir Technologies shares gain nearly 12% in early trading as raising sales forecast on strong go","content":"<p>Palantir&nbsp;Technologies&nbsp;shares&nbsp;gain&nbsp;nearly&nbsp;12%&nbsp;in&nbsp;early&nbsp;trading&nbsp;as&nbsp;raising sales forecast on strong government uptake.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/548ca8b78dadac26cb4d35346f52e7cb\" tg-width=\"894\" tg-height=\"619\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Palantir Technologies Inc. forecast sales of its data software will grow 33% in the third quarter, reflecting heightened demand from government agencies and that more companies are beginning to sign up.</p>\n<p>Revenue will be about $385 million in the period ending in September, the Denver-based company said in a statement Thursday.

Following itsmarket debuton Sept, 30, the shares hit a record high of $45 on Jan. 27. PLTR stock is currently at $22.50, around 50% off its peak.</p>\n<p>Understandably, investors have been concerned with the recent rapid decline in price. Many believe the company has visionary leadership and powerful secular growth trends. Its proprietary technology for predictive analytics has brought growth in customer numbers.</p>\n<p>Yet, the price action has been volatile. If you are a buy-and-hold investor, you could consider the current levels as an opportunity to go long.</p>\n<p>Here’s why.</p>\n<p><b>PLTR Stock Is A Growth Name</b></p>\n<p>Denver-based Palantir was founded in 2003 by Peter Thiel, the co-founder of&nbsp;<b>PayPal</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>PYPL</u></b>), to provide solutions for managing and securing data at massive scales. The company builds and deploys two main software platforms.</p>\n<p>The first one&nbsp; is Palantir Gotham, which focuses on the government intelligence and defense agencies. The other is Palantir Foundry, which is used by leading companies from energy, transportation, financial services and health care sectors. Additionally, it offers Palantir Apollo, the continuous delivery software that powers SaaS platforms, Foundry and Gotham, in the public cloud.</p>\n<p>Since its early days, Palantir has been considered a controversial company, mainly due to agreements initially made with government agenciessuch as the CIA. Yet, its recent contracts showed the company could easily expand into broader commercial markets. In the last four quarters, Palantir&nbsp;increased&nbsp;the number of its customers from 125 to 149.</p>\n<p>The group had previously made data management agreements with several big companies such as&nbsp;<b>Scuderia Ferrari</b>,<b>Airbus</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>EADSY</u></b>),<b>Rio Tinto</b>(NYSE:<b><u>RIO</u></b>), and&nbsp;<b>IBM</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>IBM</u></b>).

Following itsmarket debuton Sept, 30, the shares hit a record high of $45 on Jan. 27. PLTR stock is currently at $22.50, around 50% off its peak.\nUnderstandably, investors have been concerned with the recent rapid decline in price. Many believe the company has visionary leadership and powerful secular growth trends. Its proprietary technology for predictive analytics has brought growth in customer numbers.\nYet, the price action has been volatile. If you are a buy-and-hold investor, you could consider the current levels as an opportunity to go long.\nHere’s why.\nPLTR Stock Is A Growth Name\nDenver-based Palantir was founded in 2003 by Peter Thiel, the co-founder of PayPal(NASDAQ:PYPL), to provide solutions for managing and securing data at massive scales. The company builds and deploys two main software platforms.\nThe first one  is Palantir Gotham, which focuses on the government intelligence and defense agencies. The other is Palantir Foundry, which is used by leading companies from energy, transportation, financial services and health care sectors. Additionally, it offers Palantir Apollo, the continuous delivery software that powers SaaS platforms, Foundry and Gotham, in the public cloud.\nSince its early days, Palantir has been considered a controversial company, mainly due to agreements initially made with government agenciessuch as the CIA. Yet, its recent contracts showed the company could easily expand into broader commercial markets. In the last four quarters, Palantir increased the number of its customers from 125 to 149.\nThe group had previously made data management agreements with several big companies such as Scuderia Ferrari,Airbus(OTCMKTS:EADSY),Rio Tinto(NYSE:RIO), and IBM (NYSE:IBM). Most recently Foundry for Builders was launched to support the growth of early-stage companies including startups Chapter,Hence AI,Adyton and Gecko Robotics. Moreover,it beganaccepting Bitcoin(CCC:BTC-USD) as payment and may also invest in the cryptocurrency.\nManagement also highlights it offers services for humanitarian purposes, such as the World Food Program meand combating Covid-19.In late 2020 and early 2021, Palantir cooperated with the Greek government and England’s National Health Service to improve their response to the pandemic.

The net loss was $123.5 million compared to a loss of $54.3 million a year ago. Adjusted diluted EPS was 4 cents versus a loss per share of 1 cent same quarter prior year.

It also expanded its Space Force partnership with a new $32.5 million contract and made a $7.4 million contract renewal with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\nThe Federal Aviation Administration contracted the company for support in aircraft certification and continued operational safety.

Wall Street will want to see growth, both in revenue and number of customers.\nIf Palantir is on right track, then investors are likely to hit the “buy” button.

The launch can be streamed live on the&nbsp;company’s website&nbsp;and on&nbsp;Barron’s&nbsp;below.</p>\n<p><b>How High Up in Space Will Passenger Go?</b></p>\n<p>Galactic’s VSS Unity spacecraft will hit speeds of about Mach 3, or three times the speed of sound, and rise to about 300,000 feet, or 57 miles. That’s about 10 times as high as many commercial flights but still considered the edge of space. The suborbital flight will not pass the so-called Karman line, which is what scientists use to define the boundary of outer space. That line is about 62 miles up.</p>\n<p>Blue Origin plans to take its passengers past the Karman line on its flight.</p>\n<p><b>How Much Did Passengers Pay for the Trip?</b></p>\n<p>Nothing. While this flight could be another step forward for space tourism, the expected crew members are Galactic employees and Branson. Joining the company’s founder on board will be two pilots; Beth Moses, chief astronaut instructor; Colin Bennett, lead operations engineer; and Sirisha Bandla, vice president of government affairs and research operations.</p>\n<p>Still, Branson is no stranger to publicity. Canaccord analyst Ken Herbert believes&nbsp;it’s possible&nbsp;that Galactic could surprise viewers by bringing a paying customer on board with Branson. That would generate additional buzz for the company.</p>\n<p>A move like that would best space-tourism competitor Blue Origin in another way. Bezos is expected to take the first paying passenger to space on his flight later this month. That seat was auctioned off for&nbsp;$28 million.</p>\n<p>A ticket on a future Virgin Galactic flight will run&nbsp;about $250,000.</p>\n<p><b>What Does the Flight Mean for Investors?</b></p>\n<p>The continuation of flight tests brings Galactic one step closer to full commercialization, which means sales and, hopefully, earnings down the road.</p>\n<p>Once fully operational, each Galactic spaceship is expected to make roughly 36 flights a year. Most Galactic spaceships have about six seats for sale. At full capacity, that’s about $54 million per spaceship a year.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect Galactic to do about $3 million in 2021 sales, growing to $51 million in 2022 and $555 million by 2025. Earnings and cash flow are expected to turn positive around 2024.</p>\n<p>The flight and associated news coverage also represent publicity for the company.</p>\n<p><b>How Will Virgin Galactic Stock Benefit?</b></p>\n<p>A successful test flight is a clear positive for Galactic, but it might not be so for its stock. The news of the flight and the potential benefits are, for the most part, already priced into shares of Virgin Galactic.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4113576958bcf043e56e1c92578d0cc\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\"></p>\n<p>The stock is up roughly 120% year to date and up more than 200% over the past 12 months, giving the start-up a market capitalization of around $11 billion.</p>\n<p>Investors shouldn’t be disappointed if the stock doesn’t gain on Monday following a successful flight. The ultimate value of the company will be determined down the road.</p>\n<p>Analysts loved the stock when it was cheaper. Back in September, all analysts covering Galactic rated shares Buy. Theaverage Buy-ratingratio for&nbsp;S&amp;P 500&nbsp;stocks is about 55%.</p>\n<p>Shares were $25 in September. Now, only 30% of analysts rate shares Buy as the stock has rocketed north of $50 a share.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>5 Things to Know About Virgin Galactic and the First Passenger Flight to Space</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\">\n5 Things to Know About Virgin Galactic and the First Passenger Flight to Space\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-10 07:34 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.barrons.com/articles/virgin-galactic-richard-branson-space-flight-51625848364?mod=hp_LEAD_4><strong>Barrons</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Richard Branson’s planned flight to space on Sunday could be a monumental moment for the fledgling space tourism industry.\nSo long as there are no issues or delays, the flight will take the 70-year-...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.barrons.com/articles/virgin-galactic-richard-branson-space-flight-51625848364?mod=hp_LEAD_4\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPCE":"维珍银河"},"source_url":"https://www.barrons.com/articles/virgin-galactic-richard-branson-space-flight-51625848364?mod=hp_LEAD_4","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1159307278","content_text":"Richard Branson’s planned flight to space on Sunday could be a monumental moment for the fledgling space tourism industry.\nSo long as there are no issues or delays, the flight will take the 70-year-old founder of Virgin Galactic(ticker: SPCE), company mission specialists, and pilots, on the first passenger trip to space, beating Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin passenger flight by more than a week.\nHere’s what to watch for Sunday, along with some recent history.\nWhen Will the Virgin Galactic Space Flight Take Off?\nThe Virgin Galactic Unity 22 spaceflight is expected to launch from Virgin’s spaceport in New Mexico around 9 a.m. eastern time.

The suborbital flight will not pass the so-called Karman line, which is what scientists use to define the boundary of outer space. That line is about 62 miles up.\nBlue Origin plans to take its passengers past the Karman line on its flight.\nHow Much Did Passengers Pay for the Trip?\nNothing. While this flight could be another step forward for space tourism, the expected crew members are Galactic employees and Branson. Joining the company’s founder on board will be two pilots; Beth Moses, chief astronaut instructor; Colin Bennett, lead operations engineer; and Sirisha Bandla, vice president of government affairs and research operations.\nStill, Branson is no stranger to publicity. Canaccord analyst Ken Herbert believes it’s possible that Galactic could surprise viewers by bringing a paying customer on board with Branson. That would generate additional buzz for the company.\nA move like that would best space-tourism competitor Blue Origin in another way. Bezos is expected to take the first paying passenger to space on his flight later this month. That seat was auctioned off for $28 million.\nA ticket on a future Virgin Galactic flight will run about $250,000.\nWhat Does the Flight Mean for Investors?\nThe continuation of flight tests brings Galactic one step closer to full commercialization, which means sales and, hopefully, earnings down the road.\nOnce fully operational, each Galactic spaceship is expected to make roughly 36 flights a year. Most Galactic spaceships have about six seats for sale. At full capacity, that’s about $54 million per spaceship a year.\nAnalysts expect Galactic to do about $3 million in 2021 sales, growing to $51 million in 2022 and $555 million by 2025. Earnings and cash flow are expected to turn positive around 2024.\nThe flight and associated news coverage also represent publicity for the company.\nHow Will Virgin Galactic Stock Benefit?\nA successful test flight is a clear positive for Galactic, but it might not be so for its stock. The news of the flight and the potential benefits are, for the most part, already priced into shares of Virgin Galactic.\n\nThe stock is up roughly 120% year to date and up more than 200% over the past 12 months, giving the start-up a market capitalization of around $11 billion.\nInvestors shouldn’t be disappointed if the stock doesn’t gain on Monday following a successful flight. The ultimate value of the company will be determined down the road.\nAnalysts loved the stock when it was cheaper. Back in September, all analysts covering Galactic rated shares Buy. Theaverage Buy-ratingratio for S&P 500 stocks is about 55%.\nShares were $25 in September. Now, only 30% of analysts rate shares Buy as the stock has rocketed north of $50 a share.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":67,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833808888,"gmtCreate":1629213276144,"gmtModify":1676529969442,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/833808888","repostId":"2160062252","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160062252","pubTimestamp":1629212340,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2160062252?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 22:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These Growth Stocks Could Help You Beat a Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160062252","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Long-term investors have the luxury of viewing market downturns as buying opportunities.","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>Long-term investors have the luxury of viewing market downturns as buying opportunities.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Bear markets can happen quickly, but bull markets tend to last longer and run higher.</li>\n <li>AI chipmaker Nvidia is expanding its data center compute platform.</li>\n <li>Salesforce.com helps its clients build and maintain meaningful customer relationships.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Here's the bad news: Since 1957, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has fallen by 20% (or more) on 10 different occasions.

(NASDAQ:TSLA) for a while. I have covered numerous subjects related to the electric vehicle (“EV”) company over the years, but I have returned often to one in particular: Tesla’s solar energy business.</p>\n<p>It has been a while since I lasttook a look under the hoodof Tesla’s solar division. With the first two quarters of 2021 in the rearview mirror, it feels like now is a good time to revisit the long-struggling business unit.</p>\n<p>Much has changed for Tesla Solar in 2021, little of it for the good. Let’s discuss why this is the case.</p>\n<p>Solar Deployments In H1 2021: Still In A Long-Term Downtrend</p>\n<p>As I have&nbsp;discussed at length&nbsp;on&nbsp;numerous occasions&nbsp;over the years, Tesla Solar has been in material multi-year decline from a deployments perspective. Thus, when Tesla reported Q1 2021 earnings, I naturally looked to the solar deployment numbers to see if the negative pattern had continued. As it turned out, Tesla had managed to achieve a major sequential jump in deployments, a fact the company was quick tocrow about in its Q1 investor letter:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Solar Retrofit and Solar Roof Solar deployments reached 92 MW in Q1, our strongest quarter in 2.5 years. Solar Roof deployments grew 9x compared to the same period last year.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>Tesla reported solar deployments to the tune of 92 megawatts (“MW”) in Q1, the most it had managed in years. Under the circumstances, Tesla can hardly be blamed for having wanted to highlight such a marked improvement in chart form:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7270ea980168a8e2976a38fd80b6b5c7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"335\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>The chart above, which was included in the Q1 investor letter, certainly looks like it could be a sign of a turnaround in the making. However, its relatively limited timescale also limits its usefulness to investors and analysts interested in understanding the long-term performance and trajectory of Tesla's solar business. Charting the full history of Tesla's quarterly solar deployments through Q1 2021 offers a rather different perspective:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dab180dd817e9d4db21ed6ff4014e0d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"273\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>I hardly have to remind investors that one quarter of growth does not a pattern make. If Tesla could sustain that growth into Q2, then one might be able to talk legitimately about a turnaround. As it turned out, Tesladeployed just 85 MW in Q2, a more than7.5% sequential drop:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/43e076db4124ae5b339c1c78e6f33502\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TeslaCharts; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>Tesla's solar deployments were not just lower in Q2 than in Q1, however. At 85MW, Tesla actually managed one 1MW less than it did in Q4 2020, despite seasonal impacts traditionally weakening year-end solar deployment rates. That would seem to put paid to any notion that Tesla's solar operations have been making a significant or sustainable turnaround.</p>\n<p>Deployments may have climbed significantly from their nadir in the first half of last year, but they remain a pale shadow of what Tesla was managing five years ago. They are also radically lower than what Tesla itself hadprojected in 2016when it was in the process of acquiring SolarCity:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0a31640e43eea612f1ca8aba8bea3ae\" tg-width=\"498\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: @C_S_Skeptic; GLJ Research; Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>In 2016, Tesla was predicting solar deployments in excess of 500MW per quarter starting in 2017. We are now mid-way through 2021 and quarterly solar deployment levels stand at less than 20% of that figure.</p>\n<p>Product Progress: Solar Roof Still Not Ready For Prime Time</p>\n<p>Unveiled with great fanfare in October 2016,the Solar Roof was touted from the start as the future of solar energy technology. At the time, CEO Elon Musk was insistent that the Solar Roof was not merely a concept in development, but was actually a fully functional technology ready to enter full-scale production. Musk told his rapt audience that the acquisition of SolarCity would facilitate the rapid rollout of the Solar Roof, providing one of the first public justifications for the merger between Tesla and the virtually insolvent solar installer that had been founded by two of Musk's cousins, and of which Musk was then chairman of the board of directors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0e6430233a156f81e842006c4eac751\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Tesla Inc.</span></p>\n<p>The Solar Roof unveiling event may have helped smooth the way for the SolarCity tie-up, but it did so at the price of full transparency about the technology's readiness. Musk's claim about the Solar Roof's immediate viability was proven false in short order, as it quickly became apparent that the Solar Roof was still very much a concept in development, and with little near-term prospect of commercialization. Even then, few could have guessed how long that design and development process would take.</p>\n<p>A review of the progress to date on the long-promised but oft-delayed Solar Roof reveals a business reality far different from what has long been promised by Tesla’s solar cheerleaders. In the years since it was unveiled, the Solar Roof has gone through multipleredesigns and rebrands, even as Musk has repeatedly assured investors and the public that full-scale commercial production was imminent. In March 2019, he declared that 2019 would be \"the Year of the Solar Roof.\" In July of the same year, Musk tweeted that Solar Roof production wasaccelerating toward 1,000 units roofs per week:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6bbff17a88092785ef1227e94c6e8f19\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"251\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Elon Musk; Twitter</span></p>\n<p>This claim raised plenty of eyebrows in the investment community. Their skepticism proved well deserved as it soon became apparent that the actual Solar Roof production and installation rates were far lower. Even Electrek, a website well known for its consistently bullish Tesla commentary, felt compelled to call Musk out on his claim. According to Electrek, Musk's tweet was \"a bit of an exaggeration\" and that the actual production rate at the time was closer to 500 Solar Roofs per week. However, even that reduced projection appears to overstate the level of steady-state production and installation by a significant margin.</p>\n<p>The Solar Roof has seen its fortunes improve little in 2021 thus far. According to renewable energy industry journalist Eric Wesoff, Tesla had&nbsp;yet to install 1,000 Solar Roofs total&nbsp;as recently as this April. This pessimistic view was further reinforced last month when the Wall Street Journal&nbsp;reported&nbsp;that the Securities and Exchange Commission had already confronted Tesla over Musk's dubious prior Solar Roof claims:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “In correspondence sent to Tesla in 2019 and 2020, the SEC said tweets Mr. Musk wrote about Tesla’s solar roof production volumes and its stock price hadn’t undergone the required preapproval by Tesla’s lawyers. The communications, which haven’t been previously reported, spotlight the running tension between the nation’s top corporate regulator and Mr. Musk, who publicly mocked the SEC even after settling fraud claims with the agency. The SEC told Tesla in May 2020 that the company had failed ‘to enforce these procedures and controls despite repeated violations by Mr. Musk.’ The letter, signed by Steven Buchholz, a senior SEC official in its San Francisco office, added: ‘Tesla has abdicated the duties required of it by the court’s order.’\"\n</blockquote>\n<p>Whether installation speed has picked up meaningfully over the past few months is unclear thanks in no small part to Tesla's inconsistency with regard to reporting on the subject. Thus, while Tesla's Q1 investor letter boasted that Solar Roof installations \"grew 9x compared to the same period last year,\" it neglected to provide an exact number of MW deployed. The Q2 update offered still less clarity, failing to mention even the growth rate other than to say that deployments \"grew substantially\" on a sequential and year-over-year basis.</p>\n<p><b>Investor's Eye View</b></p>\n<p>Whatever way you slice it, Tesla’s seemingly endless struggle to launch a viable solar roof product at scale is problematic for a company that is valued based on a highly optimistic growth narrative. Tesla's market capitalization, which currently stands in excess of $670 billion, is nearly five times greater than that of Volkswagen AG (OTCPK:VWAGY), the world's largest automaker. That is in spite of the fact that Tesla currently has barely 5% of Volkswagen's annual automotive production capacity. In other words, Tesla is currently priced as if it will not only surpass the likes of Volkswagen in terms of production and sales volume, but will radically exceed them.</p>\n<p>While irrational exuberance about an EV-dominated future can explain some of Tesla's eye-watering share price, it is not the only factor. Tesla's valuation is also the result of the company's efforts to position itself as \"more than a car company.\" Solar has always been a core component of this narrative, yet it has failed to live up to the hype. Deployments remain far below the highs set half a decade ago, even as&nbsp;customer satisfaction&nbsp;has continued to fall.</p>\n<p>Moreover, the fundamental economics of Tesla's solar operations have always been shaky at best.

(NASDAQ:TSLA) for a while. I have covered numerous subjects related to the electric vehicle (“EV”) company over the years, but I have returned often to one in particular: Tesla’s solar energy business.\nIt has been a while since I lasttook a look under the hoodof Tesla’s solar division. With the first two quarters of 2021 in the rearview mirror, it feels like now is a good time to revisit the long-struggling business unit.\nMuch has changed for Tesla Solar in 2021, little of it for the good. Let’s discuss why this is the case.\nSolar Deployments In H1 2021: Still In A Long-Term Downtrend\nAs I have discussed at length on numerous occasions over the years, Tesla Solar has been in material multi-year decline from a deployments perspective. Thus, when Tesla reported Q1 2021 earnings, I naturally looked to the solar deployment numbers to see if the negative pattern had continued. As it turned out, Tesla had managed to achieve a major sequential jump in deployments, a fact the company was quick tocrow about in its Q1 investor letter:\n\n “Solar Retrofit and Solar Roof Solar deployments reached 92 MW in Q1, our strongest quarter in 2.5 years. Solar Roof deployments grew 9x compared to the same period last year.”\n\nTesla reported solar deployments to the tune of 92 megawatts (“MW”) in Q1, the most it had managed in years. Under the circumstances, Tesla can hardly be blamed for having wanted to highlight such a marked improvement in chart form:\nSource: Tesla Inc.\nThe chart above, which was included in the Q1 investor letter, certainly looks like it could be a sign of a turnaround in the making. However, its relatively limited timescale also limits its usefulness to investors and analysts interested in understanding the long-term performance and trajectory of Tesla's solar business. Charting the full history of Tesla's quarterly solar deployments through Q1 2021 offers a rather different perspective:\nSource: Author; Tesla Inc.\nI hardly have to remind investors that one quarter of growth does not a pattern make. If Tesla could sustain that growth into Q2, then one might be able to talk legitimately about a turnaround. As it turned out, Tesladeployed just 85 MW in Q2, a more than7.5% sequential drop:\nSource: TeslaCharts; Tesla Inc.\nTesla's solar deployments were not just lower in Q2 than in Q1, however. At 85MW, Tesla actually managed one 1MW less than it did in Q4 2020, despite seasonal impacts traditionally weakening year-end solar deployment rates. That would seem to put paid to any notion that Tesla's solar operations have been making a significant or sustainable turnaround.\nDeployments may have climbed significantly from their nadir in the first half of last year, but they remain a pale shadow of what Tesla was managing five years ago. They are also radically lower than what Tesla itself hadprojected in 2016when it was in the process of acquiring SolarCity:\nSource: @C_S_Skeptic; GLJ Research; Tesla Inc.\nIn 2016, Tesla was predicting solar deployments in excess of 500MW per quarter starting in 2017. We are now mid-way through 2021 and quarterly solar deployment levels stand at less than 20% of that figure.\nProduct Progress: Solar Roof Still Not Ready For Prime Time\nUnveiled with great fanfare in October 2016,the Solar Roof was touted from the start as the future of solar energy technology. At the time, CEO Elon Musk was insistent that the Solar Roof was not merely a concept in development, but was actually a fully functional technology ready to enter full-scale production. Musk told his rapt audience that the acquisition of SolarCity would facilitate the rapid rollout of the Solar Roof, providing one of the first public justifications for the merger between Tesla and the virtually insolvent solar installer that had been founded by two of Musk's cousins, and of which Musk was then chairman of the board of directors.\nSource: Tesla Inc.\nThe Solar Roof unveiling event may have helped smooth the way for the SolarCity tie-up, but it did so at the price of full transparency about the technology's readiness. Musk's claim about the Solar Roof's immediate viability was proven false in short order, as it quickly became apparent that the Solar Roof was still very much a concept in development, and with little near-term prospect of commercialization. Even then, few could have guessed how long that design and development process would take.\nA review of the progress to date on the long-promised but oft-delayed Solar Roof reveals a business reality far different from what has long been promised by Tesla’s solar cheerleaders. In the years since it was unveiled, the Solar Roof has gone through multipleredesigns and rebrands, even as Musk has repeatedly assured investors and the public that full-scale commercial production was imminent. In March 2019, he declared that 2019 would be \"the Year of the Solar Roof.\" In July of the same year, Musk tweeted that Solar Roof production wasaccelerating toward 1,000 units roofs per week:\nSource: Elon Musk; Twitter\nThis claim raised plenty of eyebrows in the investment community. Their skepticism proved well deserved as it soon became apparent that the actual Solar Roof production and installation rates were far lower. Even Electrek, a website well known for its consistently bullish Tesla commentary, felt compelled to call Musk out on his claim. According to Electrek, Musk's tweet was \"a bit of an exaggeration\" and that the actual production rate at the time was closer to 500 Solar Roofs per week. However, even that reduced projection appears to overstate the level of steady-state production and installation by a significant margin.\nThe Solar Roof has seen its fortunes improve little in 2021 thus far. According to renewable energy industry journalist Eric Wesoff, Tesla had yet to install 1,000 Solar Roofs total as recently as this April. This pessimistic view was further reinforced last month when the Wall Street Journal reported that the Securities and Exchange Commission had already confronted Tesla over Musk's dubious prior Solar Roof claims:\n\n “In correspondence sent to Tesla in 2019 and 2020, the SEC said tweets Mr. Musk wrote about Tesla’s solar roof production volumes and its stock price hadn’t undergone the required preapproval by Tesla’s lawyers. The communications, which haven’t been previously reported, spotlight the running tension between the nation’s top corporate regulator and Mr. Musk, who publicly mocked the SEC even after settling fraud claims with the agency. The SEC told Tesla in May 2020 that the company had failed ‘to enforce these procedures and controls despite repeated violations by Mr. Musk.’ The letter, signed by Steven Buchholz, a senior SEC official in its San Francisco office, added: ‘Tesla has abdicated the duties required of it by the court’s order.’\"\n\nWhether installation speed has picked up meaningfully over the past few months is unclear thanks in no small part to Tesla's inconsistency with regard to reporting on the subject. Thus, while Tesla's Q1 investor letter boasted that Solar Roof installations \"grew 9x compared to the same period last year,\" it neglected to provide an exact number of MW deployed. The Q2 update offered still less clarity, failing to mention even the growth rate other than to say that deployments \"grew substantially\" on a sequential and year-over-year basis.\nInvestor's Eye View\nWhatever way you slice it, Tesla’s seemingly endless struggle to launch a viable solar roof product at scale is problematic for a company that is valued based on a highly optimistic growth narrative. Tesla's market capitalization, which currently stands in excess of $670 billion, is nearly five times greater than that of Volkswagen AG (OTCPK:VWAGY), the world's largest automaker. That is in spite of the fact that Tesla currently has barely 5% of Volkswagen's annual automotive production capacity. In other words, Tesla is currently priced as if it will not only surpass the likes of Volkswagen in terms of production and sales volume, but will radically exceed them.\nWhile irrational exuberance about an EV-dominated future can explain some of Tesla's eye-watering share price, it is not the only factor. Tesla's valuation is also the result of the company's efforts to position itself as \"more than a car company.\" Solar has always been a core component of this narrative, yet it has failed to live up to the hype. Deployments remain far below the highs set half a decade ago, even as customer satisfaction has continued to fall.\nMoreover, the fundamental economics of Tesla's solar operations have always been shaky at best. Indeed, even as Tesla's automotive operations have inched toward breakeven, the margins for its solar business remain painfully negative. That is hardly a glowing endorsement of a business unit that is supposed to add to Tesla's value proposition, not detract from it.\nIn sum, Tesla's valuation is the product of high expectations and belief in the company's ability to expand its offerings far beyond the conventional automotive realm. Based on the performance of its solar energy business to date, it would seem prudent to revise some of those expectations downward.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":465,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":899600149,"gmtCreate":1628175941581,"gmtModify":1703502671435,"author":{"id":"3585309771434437","authorId":"3585309771434437","name":"kent86","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7dc48996c7548ea02ca7faf6be7c3085","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/899600149","repostId":"2157431025","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":117,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
