Financials and energy posted the biggest sectoral loss on S&amp;P 500, down by 0.81% and 3.33%, respectively.</p>\n<p>“It’s end of the quarter and investors may want to take some profits and rotate out of energy and stick with tech,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research in New York.</p>\n<p>Stovall expects stocks should continue their near-term climb as investors await the new earnings season, in which year-over-year earnings growth of S&amp;P 500 companies is expected to top 60%.</p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 150.57 points, or 0.44%, to close at 34,283.27.

That's a mistake. Fortunes can be made even in the best-known and largest of businesses -- and often with relatively little risk.</p>\n<p>Microsoft is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> such company. The tech titan has crushed the market in recent years, fueled by the strong performance of its cloud-based businesses.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c783ede8fec0c02f018bfb06b0662370\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\"><span>MSFT Total Return Price data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Microsoft is a giant in the rapidly expanding cloud computing industry. Its Microsoft 365 suite of productivity software -- which contains cloud-based versions of Word and Excel -- makes it easy for businesses to give their increasingly distributed workforces the tools they need to succeed.</p>\n<p>Microsoft's Azure cloud infrastructure platform is another powerful growth driver. Azure's 50% revenue growth helped to drive a 19% jump in the tech colossus' revenue -- to a staggering $41.7 billion -- in the third quarter.</p>\n<p>Microsoft's profit generation is even more impressive. Cloud-driven margin expansion led to a 44% surge in net income, to $15.5 billion.</p>\n<p>Better still, Microsoft likes to use its gushing profits to reward its investors with bountiful stock buybacks and a steadily rising dividend income stream. Together, this has helped to fuel its wealth-building share price appreciation -- and it's likely to continue to do so for many years to come.</p>\n<h2><b>America under attack: Cybersecurity is now a national security issue</b></h2>\n<p><b>Jamal Carnette:</b> Last month, cybercriminals temporarily crippled gasoline supply across the entire southeast, extorting $4.4 million from the Colonial Pipeline. Although gas shortages received the most attention, it wasn't even the most lucrative cyberattack that month as meat processor JBS quietly paid $11 million.</p>\n<p>This is more than just a temporary inconvenience: Food and gasoline aren't discretionary products but are mission critical for our society to function. It's easy to understand why our government now considers cybersecurity a national security issue.</p>\n<p>No single company will prevent bad actors entirely, but <b>Okta</b> (NASDAQ:OKTA) will play a major role. The company's suite of identity and access management (IAM) solutions ensures employees have access to the databases and tools needed to perform their jobs while preventing cybercriminals from breaching security protocols.</p>\n<p>Okta's growth thesis remains firmly intact. Businesses have been investing in the digital transformation to a work-from-anywhere culture for years. The growing utilization of cloud computing to collaborate, serve clients, and share documents will continue to grow and boost demand for Okta's suite of IAM tools.</p>\n<p>Okta's product is sticky, meaning clients are more likely to buy additional services than cancel, evidenced by Okta's dollar-based net retention rate of 120% last quarter.</p>\n<p>To date, Okta's biggest business has been focused on workforce identity but it also has an opportunity in customer identity and access management (CIAM). CIAM's aims are to provide customers security but also provide seamless transactions. A strong CIAM experience will increase engagement and lead to repeat purchases. Okta doubled down in this $30 billion total addressable market by buying Auth0 earlier this year.</p>\n<p>The key to finding great stocks is identifying upstart companies providing market leadership in a critical industry. Okta certainly fits that bill.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Top Tech Stocks That Could Make You Rich</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Tech Stocks That Could Make You Rich\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-28 16:34 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/27/3-top-tech-stocks-that-could-make-you-rich/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Tech stocks have seen volatile trading across the first half of 2021, and there could be more swings on the horizon.

The tech titan has crushed the market in recent years, fueled by the strong performance of its cloud-based businesses.\nMSFT Total Return Price data by YCharts\nMicrosoft is a giant in the rapidly expanding cloud computing industry. Its Microsoft 365 suite of productivity software -- which contains cloud-based versions of Word and Excel -- makes it easy for businesses to give their increasingly distributed workforces the tools they need to succeed.\nMicrosoft's Azure cloud infrastructure platform is another powerful growth driver. Azure's 50% revenue growth helped to drive a 19% jump in the tech colossus' revenue -- to a staggering $41.7 billion -- in the third quarter.\nMicrosoft's profit generation is even more impressive. Cloud-driven margin expansion led to a 44% surge in net income, to $15.5 billion.\nBetter still, Microsoft likes to use its gushing profits to reward its investors with bountiful stock buybacks and a steadily rising dividend income stream. Together, this has helped to fuel its wealth-building share price appreciation -- and it's likely to continue to do so for many years to come.\nAmerica under attack: Cybersecurity is now a national security issue\nJamal Carnette: Last month, cybercriminals temporarily crippled gasoline supply across the entire southeast, extorting $4.4 million from the Colonial Pipeline. Although gas shortages received the most attention, it wasn't even the most lucrative cyberattack that month as meat processor JBS quietly paid $11 million.\nThis is more than just a temporary inconvenience: Food and gasoline aren't discretionary products but are mission critical for our society to function. It's easy to understand why our government now considers cybersecurity a national security issue.\nNo single company will prevent bad actors entirely, but Okta (NASDAQ:OKTA) will play a major role. The company's suite of identity and access management (IAM) solutions ensures employees have access to the databases and tools needed to perform their jobs while preventing cybercriminals from breaching security protocols.\nOkta's growth thesis remains firmly intact. Businesses have been investing in the digital transformation to a work-from-anywhere culture for years. The growing utilization of cloud computing to collaborate, serve clients, and share documents will continue to grow and boost demand for Okta's suite of IAM tools.\nOkta's product is sticky, meaning clients are more likely to buy additional services than cancel, evidenced by Okta's dollar-based net retention rate of 120% last quarter.\nTo date, Okta's biggest business has been focused on workforce identity but it also has an opportunity in customer identity and access management (CIAM). CIAM's aims are to provide customers security but also provide seamless transactions. A strong CIAM experience will increase engagement and lead to repeat purchases. Okta doubled down in this $30 billion total addressable market by buying Auth0 earlier this year.\nThe key to finding great stocks is identifying upstart companies providing market leadership in a critical industry. Okta certainly fits that bill.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":281,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":125726710,"gmtCreate":1624696427230,"gmtModify":1703843832445,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awaken!

Many companies faced adversity throughout the pandemic, and some are still recovering, but not BABA. Through the worst economic environment for businesses to navigate in recent times, BABA generated over $100 billion in revenue and $20 billion in net income during their recent fiscal year. While BABA didn't get the memo about businesses facing challenges amidst the pandemic, the market must not have read BABA's earnings report or crunched the numbers.</p>\n<p>There are two Chinese companies I am bullish on, and BABA is my biggest conviction for appreciation. BABA smashed through the $300 share price level at the end of October 2020, but shareholders have been left confused and disappointed since then. It looked like BABA would turn the corner after a horrible end to 2020 as shares appreciated from $222.36 from the close of 2020 to $270.83 in the middle of February 2021. Still, the markets had other plans, and all shares of BABA have done is disappoint shareholders. If you missed the BABA train, it's time to grab your tickets and climb aboard, and if you purchased BABA during its run to $300 or early 2021 rebound, it might be time to add to your holdings. BABA is going to experience tremendous tailwinds from China's population and economic growth over the next several years, and their printing press is going to need more ink.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86da7b532f25f563d08490ddc43cbede\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>The Alibaba printing press is open for business, and it spits out billions</b></p>\n<p>How many companies can say their annual revenue through the pandemic exceeded $100 billion? The $100 billion revenue mark is a prestigious club that companies such as&nbsp;Facebook (FB),PepsiCo (PEP),Procter &amp; Gamble (PG),Target (TGT), and&nbsp;Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)&nbsp;are not part of. BABA, on the other hand, witnessed its revenue increase by 52.11% and smash through $100 billion as they generated $109.47 billion in their recent fiscal year. For the year ending March 2019, BABA's revenue increased by $16.25 billion (40.74%) to $56.15 billion, then for the March 2020 fiscal year, revenue increased another $15.82 billion (28.17%) to $71.97 billion. BABA is in the same boat as Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL), FB, and Amazon (AMZN) as they watched the pandemic push more people to go digital which accelerated their businesses. For BABA, the forced transition to digital helped them achieve $37.5 billion (52.11%) in additional revenue as they finished their March 2021 fiscal year with $109.47 billion in revenue.</p>\n<p>Since 2013 BABA has not had a year where their annual revenue increase didn't exceed 25% Year over Year (YoY). When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.</p>\n<p>BABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates in<i>Warren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:</i></p>\n<blockquote>\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n</blockquote>\n<p>The gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.</p>\n<p>Moving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a5e036f023fa4ced7666e06aa1de6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"444\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba&nbsp;achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.</p>\n<p>BABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth&nbsp;has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China&nbsp;is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey&nbsp;predicts&nbsp;that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.</p>\n<p>If the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbde4a092d19118a2d16daabf5c027d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\"><span>(Source: Blomberg)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization</b></p>\n<p>Cloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from&nbsp;AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.</p>\n<p>In China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in&nbsp;China&nbsp;grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.</p>\n<p>As China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1759b81ce463d503a165d901e2e50d7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"728\"><span>(Source: Canalys)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates</b></p>\n<p>For this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>AMZN</li>\n <li>BABA</li>\n <li>GOOGL</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>It's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Can BABA Get Back To $300?

Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.\nBABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey predicts that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.\nIf the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.\n(Source: Blomberg)\nAlibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization\nCloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.\nIn China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in China grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.\nAs China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.\n(Source: Canalys)\nAlibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates\nFor this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:\n\nAMZN\nBABA\nGOOGL\n\nThe market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.\nConclusion\nIt's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":125160096,"gmtCreate":1624664462615,"gmtModify":1703842955902,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Story story night!!!!&nbsp;","listText":"Story story night!!!!&nbsp;","text":"Story story night!!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/125160096","repostId":"1116076888","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1116076888","pubTimestamp":1624612129,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1116076888?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-25 17:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Tesla stock is getting left in Ford's and GM's dust","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1116076888","media":"cnn","summary":"New York Tesla had a stellar 2020: The electric car maker was added to the S&P 500 and the stock surged an electrifying 743%.

The company has criticized Apple’s policies in the past, specifically Apple’s policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.\nMore recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoft’s cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.\nThat led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the body’s investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook.\nMicrosoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11. (Image: Microsoft)Microsoft\nMicrosoft also took aim at Apple in the iPhone maker’s battle with “Fortnite” developer Epic Games. In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epic’s Unreal Engine.\nEpic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed “Fornite” from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Google’s payment services. That effectively cut out Apple and Google’s 30% app store fees.\nEpic’s fight with Apple wrapped up earlier this month and a ruling is expected before the end of the summer.\nMicrosoft could win over developers\nWith its decision to allow developers to use their own payment systems, Microsoft is sending a signal to the global developer community that it is willing to play by their rules. That could help the company as it seeks to build out its app store and drive more business for Windows.\nWhile Microsoft was caught flat-footed in the smartphone wars, its moves with the Windows 11 Microsoft Store could give it the kind of boost from developers that it needs to begin taking market share from Apple and Google in the fight for app store supremacy.

Saudi Aramco eclipsed that threshold briefly in December 2019, but currently has a market value of about $1.9 trillion.\nSince taking the reins in 2014, Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella has reshaped the Redmond, Washington-based company into the largest seller of cloud-computing software, counting both its infrastructure and Office application cloud units. Microsoft is also the only one of the biggest U.S. technology companies that has so far evaded the recent wave of scrutiny from increasingly active American antitrust regulators, giving it a freer hand in both acquisitions and product expansion.\nMicrosoft has gained 19% so far this year, outperforming Apple and Amazon.com Inc., as investors piled into the stock on expectations of long-term growth for both earnings and revenue, and expansion in areas like machine learning and cloud computing. The company’s third-quarter results, released in late April, topped expectations and demonstrated strong growth across its business segments.\nThe tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index outperformed the S&P 500 Index on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated his view that inflation will be short lived. Both benchmarks rose to session highs after Powell’s comments with the Nasdaq 100 up 1.1% and the S&P 500 up 0.7%.\nMicrosoft “has its hands in a lot and it is doing it all well: gaming, cloud, automation, analytics, AI,” said Hilary Frisch, senior research analyst at Clearbridge Investments. “It is an attractively valued name within tech, and it should benefit from both the economy reopening as well as from a more pronounced shift toward the cloud.”\n\nCo-founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft created the personal-computer software industry and dominated the market for PC operating systems and Office software for years. As internet browsers like Netscape grew in importance in the 1990s, Microsoft raced to introduce its own product that it bundled with Windows software. That led to a bruising antitrust lawsuit, filed in 1998 by the U.S. government, with a federal judge finding the company guilty in 2000.\nThough Microsoft avoided a breakup of its business, the penalty the government originally sought in the antitrust case, the next decade saw the software maker largely miss the advent of mobile software, social media and internet search, falling behind newer rivals such as Google and nimbler ones like Apple. With a series of strategic shifts, in the past seven years Nadella has restored Microsoft to the vanguard of technology with a focus on cloud, mobile computing and artificial intelligence.\nWhile it took Microsoft 33 years from its IPO to reach its first $1 trillion in value in 2019, the next trillion only took about two years amid a surge in popularity in tech stocks before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the health crisis. Apple made Wall Street history when it reached $2 trillion last year.\nAmong U.S. names, the pair are trailed by Amazon, which has a market cap of nearly $1.8 trillion, and Alphabet Inc., which is valued around $1.6 trillion.\nAccording to data compiled by Bloomberg, more than 90% of analysts recommend buying Microsoft, while none has the equivalent of a sell rating on the stock. The average price target points to upside of about 11% from current levels.\nGrowth Drivers\nMicrosoft’s cloud-computing business has been a central force behind the advance. According to data compiled by Bloomberg, the Intelligent Cloud business accounted for 33.8% of Microsoft’s 2020 revenue, making it the largest of the three major segments for the first time, and up from 31% in 2019. The division showed revenue growth of 24% last year, compared with the 13% growth in Productivity and Business Processes, and the 6% growth of Microsoft’s More Personal Computing unit.\nNadella’s strategic moves had put Microsoft in a position to benefit from business trends that arose during the global pandemic. Lockdowns and remote work accelerated a shift to the company’s meeting software and pushed clients to speed up modernizations of software networks and applications around the cloud. The software maker’s Xbox gaming subscriptions also lured users looking for diversion during months stuck at home.\nAs workers return to the office, Microsoft has tried to push new ideas for managing meetings where some attendees are in person and some remote, and has been hawking features to boost wellness and productivity for workers that the company says are burned out by the tribulations of the past year.\n“At a high level, the two core pillars of Microsoft’s bull narrative — Microsoft 365 and Azure — are well understood by the investment community,” William Blair analyst Jason Ader wrote in May. “What is perhaps less appreciated is how over the last 15 years Microsoft has expanded its IT wallet share through expanding into new product areas” and taking market share. The wallet share doubled from 2006 to 2020, and “we believe it can double again over the next decade,” it wrote.\nWall Street is also positive on the company’s M&A strategy. It recently announced that it is buying speech-recognition pioneer Nuance Communications Inc. The company also tried to acquire Discord Inc. for $12 billion, but the video-game chat company rejected Microsoft’s offer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":152,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129308371,"gmtCreate":1624356030293,"gmtModify":1703834248525,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go!!!

Saudi Aramco eclipsed that threshold briefly in December 2019, but currently has a market value of about $1.9 trillion.</p>\n<p>Since taking the reins in 2014, Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella has reshaped the Redmond, Washington-based company into the largest seller of cloud-computing software, counting both its infrastructure and Office application cloud units. Microsoft is also the only <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the biggest U.S. technology companies that has so far evaded the recent wave of scrutiny from increasingly active American antitrust regulators, giving it a freer hand in both acquisitions and product expansion.</p>\n<p>Microsoft has gained 19% so far this year, outperforming Apple and Amazon.com Inc., as investors piled into the stock on expectations of long-term growth for both earnings and revenue, and expansion in areas like machine learning and cloud computing. The company’s third-quarter results, released in late April, topped expectations and demonstrated strong growth across its business segments.</p>\n<p>The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index outperformed the S&amp;P 500 Index on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated his view that inflation will be short lived. Both benchmarks rose to session highs after Powell’s comments with the Nasdaq 100 up 1.1% and the S&amp;P 500 up 0.7%.</p>\n<p>Microsoft “has its hands in a lot and it is doing it all well: gaming, cloud, automation, analytics, AI,” said Hilary Frisch, senior research analyst at Clearbridge Investments. “It is an attractively valued name within tech, and it should benefit from both the economy reopening as well as from a more pronounced shift toward the cloud.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a280fce51eba99be2831914a36829047\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Co-founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft created the personal-computer software industry and dominated the market for PC operating systems and Office software for years. As internet browsers like Netscape grew in importance in the 1990s, Microsoft raced to introduce its own product that it bundled with Windows software. That led to a bruising antitrust lawsuit, filed in 1998 by the U.S. government, with a federal judge finding the company guilty in 2000.</p>\n<p>Though Microsoft avoided a breakup of its business, the penalty the government originally sought in the antitrust case, the next decade saw the software maker largely miss the advent of mobile software, social media and internet search, falling behind newer rivals such as Google and nimbler ones like Apple. With a series of strategic shifts, in the past seven years Nadella has restored Microsoft to the vanguard of technology with a focus on cloud, mobile computing and artificial intelligence.</p>\n<p>While it took Microsoft 33 years from its IPO to reach its first $1 trillion in value in 2019, the next trillion only took about two years amid a surge in popularity in tech stocks before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the health crisis.

Saudi Aramco eclipsed that threshold briefly in December 2019, but currently has a market value of about $1.9 trillion.\nSince taking the reins in 2014, Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella has reshaped the Redmond, Washington-based company into the largest seller of cloud-computing software, counting both its infrastructure and Office application cloud units. Microsoft is also the only one of the biggest U.S. technology companies that has so far evaded the recent wave of scrutiny from increasingly active American antitrust regulators, giving it a freer hand in both acquisitions and product expansion.\nMicrosoft has gained 19% so far this year, outperforming Apple and Amazon.com Inc., as investors piled into the stock on expectations of long-term growth for both earnings and revenue, and expansion in areas like machine learning and cloud computing. The company’s third-quarter results, released in late April, topped expectations and demonstrated strong growth across its business segments.\nThe tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index outperformed the S&P 500 Index on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reiterated his view that inflation will be short lived. Both benchmarks rose to session highs after Powell’s comments with the Nasdaq 100 up 1.1% and the S&P 500 up 0.7%.\nMicrosoft “has its hands in a lot and it is doing it all well: gaming, cloud, automation, analytics, AI,” said Hilary Frisch, senior research analyst at Clearbridge Investments. “It is an attractively valued name within tech, and it should benefit from both the economy reopening as well as from a more pronounced shift toward the cloud.”\n\nCo-founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft created the personal-computer software industry and dominated the market for PC operating systems and Office software for years. As internet browsers like Netscape grew in importance in the 1990s, Microsoft raced to introduce its own product that it bundled with Windows software. That led to a bruising antitrust lawsuit, filed in 1998 by the U.S. government, with a federal judge finding the company guilty in 2000.\nThough Microsoft avoided a breakup of its business, the penalty the government originally sought in the antitrust case, the next decade saw the software maker largely miss the advent of mobile software, social media and internet search, falling behind newer rivals such as Google and nimbler ones like Apple. With a series of strategic shifts, in the past seven years Nadella has restored Microsoft to the vanguard of technology with a focus on cloud, mobile computing and artificial intelligence.\nWhile it took Microsoft 33 years from its IPO to reach its first $1 trillion in value in 2019, the next trillion only took about two years amid a surge in popularity in tech stocks before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the health crisis. Apple made Wall Street history when it reached $2 trillion last year.\nAmong U.S. names, the pair are trailed by Amazon, which has a market cap of nearly $1.8 trillion, and Alphabet Inc., which is valued around $1.6 trillion.\nAccording to data compiled by Bloomberg, more than 90% of analysts recommend buying Microsoft, while none has the equivalent of a sell rating on the stock. The average price target points to upside of about 11% from current levels.\nGrowth Drivers\nMicrosoft’s cloud-computing business has been a central force behind the advance.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eba49f5881708929949c30628eedc5d4\" tg-width=\"934\" tg-height=\"578\"><span>Annual GMV.

In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d5a8d0d8a6a2dcdf667a6f33c6c9771\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"702\"><span>Peers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>Even though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&amp;A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.</p>\n<p>One important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of&nbsp;823M AAC&nbsp;in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only&nbsp;100M AAC in Q2’C17&nbsp;as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.</p>\n<p>Therefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3b83b69b08b1f4b11a26393c8e6eead5\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Market size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research</span></p>\n<p>Even though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b97b2b4a8a182dc9846d8fb7e4039877\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"770\"><span>PDD profitability metrics &amp; revenue growth forecast.

More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3aadc32155b4108426a1a982e3b5b1c2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\"><span>China public cloud spending.

Data source: CAICT; Sina.com.cn</span></p>\n<p>BABA has a 40% share in China’s public cloud market, way ahead of its key competitors. However, it’s important to note that despite this leadership, BABA is still in heavy investment mode to continue growing its market share as China’s public cloud market is expected to grow from 26.48B yuan in 2017 to 230.74B yuan by 2023, which would represent a CAGR of 43.4%, an incredibly stellar growth rate. This is especially clear when we compare China’s growth rate to the worldwide growth rate (see below) as public cloud spending worldwide is expected to grow from $145B in 2017 to $397B by 2022, that would represent a CAGR of 22.3%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06198c569504bc303c34563041dfb294\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Worldwide public cloud spending.

Source:CnTechPost; Gartner</span></p>\n<p>Therefore, I don’t find it surprising that Ali Cloud has continued to extend its lead over Alphabet’s(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG)GCP with a market share of 9.5% in 2020. While AMZN remains the clear leader in the market, its market share has been coming down considerably as public cloud spending continues to expand, indicating that there is a huge potential for growth for multiple players to exist. With BABA’s leadership in the rapidly expanding Chinese market, I’m increasingly bullish on the future profit and FCF contribution from this segment to BABA’s performance over time. Although BABA’s cloud segment has not been EBIT profitable yet (FY 21 EBIT margin: -15%, FY 20 EBIT margin: -17.5%), it’s also useful to note that GCP has also not been profitable for Alphabet as well (FY 20 EBIT margin: -42.9%, FY 19 EBIT margin: -52%). Therefore, we need to give BABA some time to scale up its cloud services in APAC and in China where it is expected to have stronger leadership to allow it to grow faster and investors should expect this to be a highly profitable segment over time.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Valuations Look Highly Compelling</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62a087c4b3ef7efc2c5dde813e3b959d\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"600\"><span>NTM TEV / EBIT 3Y range.</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2605c0e5ad364a7a43929fef204595c\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"687\"><span>EV / Fwd EBIT and EV / Fwd Rev trend. Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>When we consider BABA's TEV / EBIT historical range, where the 3Y mean read 33.54x, BABA’s EV / Fwd EBIT trend certainly imply a hugely undervalued stock as BABA is still expected to grow its revenue and operating profits rapidly. However, as we wanted to obtain greater clarity over how its counterparts are also valued, we thought it would be useful if we value BABA’s EBIT over a set of benchmark companies that is presented below.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d27873e676dfb23c98d4a69aa5861e02\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"1117\"><span>Peers EV / EBIT Valuations. Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>By using a blend of historical and forward EBIT, we could see that BABA’s EV / EBIT really looks undervalued when compared to the median value of the set of observed values from the benchmark companies. We derived a fair value range for BABA of $294.98 at the midpoint of the range, that represented a potential upside of 40.5% based on the current stock price of $210.</p>\n<p><b>Risks to Assumptions</b></p>\n<p>Now, it’s obviously baffling to watch how Mr. Market has decided to discount BABA to such an extent as if the company has lost all its key sources of growth, when in fact there is still so much potential upside coming from its commerce segment, the new marketplace initiatives and its growing Ali Cloud segment, among others. The main realistic reason that we identified for the stock's underperformance would simply be regulatory risk. We think investors should acknowledge that this risk is very real and at times huge Chinese companies have found themselves to be subjected to extra scrutiny (which is nothing new in fact) by the Chinese government. What’s critical here is that the Chinese government seemingly has significant clout over the behavior and actions of their tech behemoths that at times may be largely unpredictable. The market certainly hates unpredictability and therefore they may have significantly discounted BABA as a result of that.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.\nBABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers\nAnnual GMV. Data source: Company filings\nAnnual e-commerce revenue. Data source: Company filings\nBABA’s GMV grew from 1.68T yuan to 7.49T yuan in just a matter of 7 years, which represented a CAGR of 23.8%, a truly amazing growth rate. We also saw its GMV growth being converted into revenue growth as its China commerce revenue grew from 7.67B yuan to 473.68B yuan, at a CAGR of 51% over the last 10 years. While its international footprint remains considerably smaller, it still grew at a CAGR of 30.42% over the last 10 years, which was by no means slow.\nEven though China’s e-commerce market is expected to grow considerably slower at a CAGR of 12.4% over the next three years, from 13.8T yuan, equivalent to $2.16T in 2021 to 19.6T yuan,equivalent to $3.06T by 2024, the massive size of the market still offers tremendous upside potential for BABA and its closest competitors to grow into.\nE-commerce revenue in the U.S. Data source: Statista\nWhen we take things into clearer perspective by comparing China’s growth rate and size of its market to that of the U.S. e-commerce market, we could see the huge differences in their sizes and growth rates as the U.S. e-commerce market is only expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.67% from 2021 to 2025, which is significantly slower than China’s 12.4%. In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.\nPeers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nEven though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.\nOne important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of 823M AAC in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only 100M AAC in Q2’C17 as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.\nTherefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.\nMarket size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research\nEven though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.\nPDD profitability metrics & revenue growth forecast. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nWe could observe from the above chart that PDD is expected to continue growing its revenue rapidly over the next few years, even though they are expected to normalize subsequently. More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.\nChina public cloud spending. Source:China Internet Watch; Canalys\nSize of China public cloud market. Data source: CAICT; Sina.com.cn\nBABA has a 40% share in China’s public cloud market, way ahead of its key competitors. However, it’s important to note that despite this leadership, BABA is still in heavy investment mode to continue growing its market share as China’s public cloud market is expected to grow from 26.48B yuan in 2017 to 230.74B yuan by 2023, which would represent a CAGR of 43.4%, an incredibly stellar growth rate. This is especially clear when we compare China’s growth rate to the worldwide growth rate (see below) as public cloud spending worldwide is expected to grow from $145B in 2017 to $397B by 2022, that would represent a CAGR of 22.3%.\nWorldwide public cloud spending. Data source: Gartner\nWorldwide public cloud market share. Source:CnTechPost; Gartner\nTherefore, I don’t find it surprising that Ali Cloud has continued to extend its lead over Alphabet’s(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG)GCP with a market share of 9.5% in 2020. While AMZN remains the clear leader in the market, its market share has been coming down considerably as public cloud spending continues to expand, indicating that there is a huge potential for growth for multiple players to exist. With BABA’s leadership in the rapidly expanding Chinese market, I’m increasingly bullish on the future profit and FCF contribution from this segment to BABA’s performance over time. Although BABA’s cloud segment has not been EBIT profitable yet (FY 21 EBIT margin: -15%, FY 20 EBIT margin: -17.5%), it’s also useful to note that GCP has also not been profitable for Alphabet as well (FY 20 EBIT margin: -42.9%, FY 19 EBIT margin: -52%). Therefore, we need to give BABA some time to scale up its cloud services in APAC and in China where it is expected to have stronger leadership to allow it to grow faster and investors should expect this to be a highly profitable segment over time.\nBABA's Valuations Look Highly Compelling\nNTM TEV / EBIT 3Y range.\nEV / Fwd EBIT and EV / Fwd Rev trend. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nWhen we consider BABA's TEV / EBIT historical range, where the 3Y mean read 33.54x, BABA’s EV / Fwd EBIT trend certainly imply a hugely undervalued stock as BABA is still expected to grow its revenue and operating profits rapidly. However, as we wanted to obtain greater clarity over how its counterparts are also valued, we thought it would be useful if we value BABA’s EBIT over a set of benchmark companies that is presented below.\nPeers EV / EBIT Valuations. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nBy using a blend of historical and forward EBIT, we could see that BABA’s EV / EBIT really looks undervalued when compared to the median value of the set of observed values from the benchmark companies. We derived a fair value range for BABA of $294.98 at the midpoint of the range, that represented a potential upside of 40.5% based on the current stock price of $210.\nRisks to Assumptions\nNow, it’s obviously baffling to watch how Mr. Market has decided to discount BABA to such an extent as if the company has lost all its key sources of growth, when in fact there is still so much potential upside coming from its commerce segment, the new marketplace initiatives and its growing Ali Cloud segment, among others. The main realistic reason that we identified for the stock's underperformance would simply be regulatory risk. We think investors should acknowledge that this risk is very real and at times huge Chinese companies have found themselves to be subjected to extra scrutiny (which is nothing new in fact) by the Chinese government. What’s critical here is that the Chinese government seemingly has significant clout over the behavior and actions of their tech behemoths that at times may be largely unpredictable. The market certainly hates unpredictability and therefore they may have significantly discounted BABA as a result of that. If investors are not able to handle uncertainty with regard to potentially unpredictable regulatory actions and their aftermath, then BABA may not be appropriate for you. However, if you believe that this is just a blip in BABA’s long journey, then you would surely find BABA's valuations extremely attractive right now, coupled with a long term mindset.\nWrapping It All Up\nAlibaba has continued to deliver solid results that demonstrated the strong capability of the company to execute well. As the company continues to operate within a market with so many growth drivers that are expected to drive the company’s future growth, investors should find the current valuations highly attractive.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":58,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":153185289,"gmtCreate":1625013725841,"gmtModify":1703850044097,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"higher higher touch the sky!!!!","listText":"higher higher touch the sky!!!!","text":"higher higher touch the sky!!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/153185289","repostId":"1122418477","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1122418477","pubTimestamp":1625008161,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1122418477?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-30 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech stocks propel S&P 500, Nasdaq to fresh highs","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122418477","media":"CNBC","summary":"The S&P 500 notched another record high on Tuesday amid bullish economic data but retreated toward the flat line later in the session as Wall Street continued its recent period of low volatility.The broad market index ticked up less than 0.1% to 4,291.80, good enough for its fourth-straight record close.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite added about 0.2% for its own record of 14,528.33.\nHomebuilder stocks moved higher after S&P Case-Shiller saidhome prices rose more than 14% in Aprilcompared to the prior year. Five U.S. cities, including Seattle, saw their largest annual increase on record.

General Electric boosted the industrials sector, rising over 1% afterGoldman Sachs named the stock a top idea.\nThe market has churned out a series of record highs in recent weeks, but the gains have been relatively modest and some strategists have pointed to weak market breadth, measured by the performance of the average stock and the number of individual names making new highs, as a potential area of concern.\nOn Tuesday, there were slightly more declining stocks in the S&P 500 than those that rose during the session.\nHowever, the diminished breadth and volatility could simply be a natural pause during the summer months ahead of the busy earnings season in July, said Bill McMahon, the chief investment officer for active equity strategies at Charles Schwab Investment Management.\n\"I think people are in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, so it's not surprising to see volatility decline and breadth worsen a tad,\" McMahon said, adding that concern about the spreading Delta variant of Covid-19 could also be weighing on stocks.\nShares of Morgan Stanley jumped more than 3% after the bank said it willdouble its quarterly dividend. The bank also announced a $12 billion stock buyback program. The announcement follows last week's stress tests by the Federal Reserve, which all 23 major banks passed.

The Nasdaq is pacing for its seventh positive month in the last eight. The Dow, however, is in the red for the month, and on track to snap a four-month winning streak.\nSo far in 2021, the S&P 500 has added 14%, while the Nasdaq has added more than 12% with the Dow close behind.\nJPMorgan quantitative strategist Dubravkos Lakos-Bujas said on CNBC's \"Squawk Box\" that the market appeared to have near-term upside.\n\"The growth policy backdrop in our opinion still remains supportive for risk assets in general, certainly including equities. At the same time, the positioning is not really stretched to where we are in a problematic territory. So we do think there is still a runway. ... The summer period, the next two months, is where I think the market continues to break out,\" the strategist said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":438,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":125726710,"gmtCreate":1624696427230,"gmtModify":1703843832445,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awaken!

Many companies faced adversity throughout the pandemic, and some are still recovering, but not BABA. Through the worst economic environment for businesses to navigate in recent times, BABA generated over $100 billion in revenue and $20 billion in net income during their recent fiscal year. While BABA didn't get the memo about businesses facing challenges amidst the pandemic, the market must not have read BABA's earnings report or crunched the numbers.</p>\n<p>There are two Chinese companies I am bullish on, and BABA is my biggest conviction for appreciation. BABA smashed through the $300 share price level at the end of October 2020, but shareholders have been left confused and disappointed since then. It looked like BABA would turn the corner after a horrible end to 2020 as shares appreciated from $222.36 from the close of 2020 to $270.83 in the middle of February 2021. Still, the markets had other plans, and all shares of BABA have done is disappoint shareholders. If you missed the BABA train, it's time to grab your tickets and climb aboard, and if you purchased BABA during its run to $300 or early 2021 rebound, it might be time to add to your holdings. BABA is going to experience tremendous tailwinds from China's population and economic growth over the next several years, and their printing press is going to need more ink.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86da7b532f25f563d08490ddc43cbede\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>The Alibaba printing press is open for business, and it spits out billions</b></p>\n<p>How many companies can say their annual revenue through the pandemic exceeded $100 billion? The $100 billion revenue mark is a prestigious club that companies such as&nbsp;Facebook (FB),PepsiCo (PEP),Procter &amp; Gamble (PG),Target (TGT), and&nbsp;Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)&nbsp;are not part of. BABA, on the other hand, witnessed its revenue increase by 52.11% and smash through $100 billion as they generated $109.47 billion in their recent fiscal year. For the year ending March 2019, BABA's revenue increased by $16.25 billion (40.74%) to $56.15 billion, then for the March 2020 fiscal year, revenue increased another $15.82 billion (28.17%) to $71.97 billion. BABA is in the same boat as Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL), FB, and Amazon (AMZN) as they watched the pandemic push more people to go digital which accelerated their businesses. For BABA, the forced transition to digital helped them achieve $37.5 billion (52.11%) in additional revenue as they finished their March 2021 fiscal year with $109.47 billion in revenue.</p>\n<p>Since 2013 BABA has not had a year where their annual revenue increase didn't exceed 25% Year over Year (YoY). When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.</p>\n<p>BABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates in<i>Warren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:</i></p>\n<blockquote>\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n</blockquote>\n<p>The gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.</p>\n<p>Moving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a5e036f023fa4ced7666e06aa1de6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"444\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba&nbsp;achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.</p>\n<p>BABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth&nbsp;has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China&nbsp;is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey&nbsp;predicts&nbsp;that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.</p>\n<p>If the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbde4a092d19118a2d16daabf5c027d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\"><span>(Source: Blomberg)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization</b></p>\n<p>Cloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from&nbsp;AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.</p>\n<p>In China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in&nbsp;China&nbsp;grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.</p>\n<p>As China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1759b81ce463d503a165d901e2e50d7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"728\"><span>(Source: Canalys)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates</b></p>\n<p>For this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>AMZN</li>\n <li>BABA</li>\n <li>GOOGL</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>It's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Can BABA Get Back To $300?

If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.\n(Source: Canalys)\nAlibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates\nFor this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:\n\nAMZN\nBABA\nGOOGL\n\nThe market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.\nConclusion\nIt's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127740616,"gmtCreate":1624871126835,"gmtModify":1703846677683,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nothing bid my love for you MSFT!","listText":"Nothing bid my love for you MSFT!","text":"Nothing bid my love for you MSFT!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/127740616","repostId":"2146026710","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146026710","pubTimestamp":1624869278,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2146026710?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-28 16:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Tech Stocks That Could Make You Rich","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146026710","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Find out why these companies could deliver life-changing returns.","content":"<p>Tech stocks have seen volatile trading across the first half of 2021, and there could be more swings on the horizon.

It’s why we’re introducing new store commerce models and policies.”</p>\n<p>The move is certain to rankle executives at both Apple and Google, which are facing antitrust investigations into their app store practices.</p>\n<p>Apple is awaiting a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Epic Games, in which the “Fortnite” developer accused the iPhone maker of abusing its market power over the App Store by forcing developers to use its own payment system and fork over the associated fees.</p>\n<p>Google, meanwhile, faces a similar lawsuit from Epic and is expected to get slapped with a lawsuit from a collection of state attorneys general for its app store policies.</p>\n<h3><b>Microsoft has been criticizing Apple’s policies</b></h3>\n<p>This isn’t the first time Microsoft has called out its rivals and their app stores. The company has criticized Apple’s policies in the past, specifically Apple’s policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.</p>\n<p>More recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoft’s cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.</p>\n<p>That led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the body’s investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a>.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d92ddac610658f60945c72fc4da23210\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"640\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Microsoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11.

In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epic’s Unreal Engine.</p>\n<p>Epic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed “Fornite” from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Google’s payment services.

It’s why we’re introducing new store commerce models and policies.”\nThe move is certain to rankle executives at both Apple and Google, which are facing antitrust investigations into their app store practices.\nApple is awaiting a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Epic Games, in which the “Fortnite” developer accused the iPhone maker of abusing its market power over the App Store by forcing developers to use its own payment system and fork over the associated fees.\nGoogle, meanwhile, faces a similar lawsuit from Epic and is expected to get slapped with a lawsuit from a collection of state attorneys general for its app store policies.\nMicrosoft has been criticizing Apple’s policies\nThis isn’t the first time Microsoft has called out its rivals and their app stores. The company has criticized Apple’s policies in the past, specifically Apple’s policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.\nMore recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoft’s cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.\nThat led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the body’s investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook.\nMicrosoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11. (Image: Microsoft)Microsoft\nMicrosoft also took aim at Apple in the iPhone maker’s battle with “Fortnite” developer Epic Games. In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epic’s Unreal Engine.\nEpic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed “Fornite” from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Google’s payment services. That effectively cut out Apple and Google’s 30% app store fees.\nEpic’s fight with Apple wrapped up earlier this month and a ruling is expected before the end of the summer.\nMicrosoft could win over developers\nWith its decision to allow developers to use their own payment systems, Microsoft is sending a signal to the global developer community that it is willing to play by their rules. That could help the company as it seeks to build out its app store and drive more business for Windows.\nWhile Microsoft was caught flat-footed in the smartphone wars, its moves with the Windows 11 Microsoft Store could give it the kind of boost from developers that it needs to begin taking market share from Apple and Google in the fight for app store supremacy. It’s now up to Apple and Google to respond.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":107,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121080824,"gmtCreate":1624444148568,"gmtModify":1703836853006,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"May my investment hit record too!

But some investors have pulled the plug on the company lately.</p>\n<p>Tesla (TSLA) shares are nearly 25% below their all-time high set earlier in the year, and down 2% for 2021 to date -— a time when traditional automakers are surging as they ramp up electric vehicle ambitions.</p>\n<p>Ford (F) stock is up nearly 75%, putting it in the top 10 of the S&amp;P 500 in 2021. The company unveiled its electric F-150 Lightning truck last month and also told investors that it now expects electric vehicles to account for 40% of global sales by 2030.</p>\n<p>And GM (GM) is up more than 40% as well. The Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac maker said this month that it's looking to spend a whopping $35 billion on EVs by 2025.</p>\n<p>It seems investors are a bit infatuated with these legacy Big 3 automakers as they look to rapidly expand their electric car offerings to catch up with Tesla.</p>\n<p>Tesla is still growing incredibly quickly. Analysts expect earnings per share to more than double this year and increase at an average rate of about 45% annually over the next few years.</p>\n<p>Yet Tesla is one of the most polarizing stocks on Wall Street.</p>\n<p>According to Refinitiv, 14 analysts have the stock rated a \"buy,\" 13 a \"hold\" and 10 a \"sell.\" Contrast that with GM, which has 20 buy ratings, two holds and no sells.</p>\n<p><b>Skeptics have many questions about Tesla and Musk</b></p>\n<p>The consensus target price for Tesla stock from analysts is $652, about 6% lower than its current price.</p>\n<p>Tesla critics have a pile of worries to point to.

When COVID-19 reached American shores like a tidal wave in March 2020, social distancing directives forced large swaths of society online and one of the primary ways businesses of all types and schools functioned was through the use of Zoom Video's Meetings and Chat products, Rooms and Workspaces products, Phone System, and Video Webinars.</p>\n<p>Just to give an idea of Zoom's growth because of the pandemic, in December of 2019, Zoom was averaging 10 million daily meeting participants. And by April, that number had already grown to 300 million daily meeting participants, so 30-times growth within a matter of months.</p>\n<p>Zoom Video's rapid expansion also brought a rapid expansion in the stock price. Zoom Video opened at $66.63 on January 6th, 2020 and by October 19, 2020 reached an all-time closing high of $568.34.</p>\n<p>Since reaching those highs in October, Zoom's stock has drastically backed off the highs, with some of the reason partially due to valuation but the other part of the reason was the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccine.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba1727c3f1d2ae87b1ff910a5f923246\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Data by YCharts</p>\n<p>On December 11, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issuedthe first emergency use authorization (EUA)for Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine. Many investors believe that Zoom Video is only a \"COVID stock\", meaning that substantially all of the company's business over the past year was due to COVID and there is a perception that when the world goes \"back to normal\", that Zoom will encounter a substantial loss of business. That perception persisted into early May to the point where Zoom's stock closed at $288.49 on May 10th, 2021.</p>\n<p>Since the lows in May, Zoom has rebounded to close at $372.95 on June 17th, 2021. The question for investors now becomes whether the perception of Zoom being a \"COVID stock\" that will churn customers and lose a lot of business as the pandemic subsides is true or not? In this article I will go over Zoom Video's earnings and I will also highlight reasons why I believe that Zoom Video has a strong business beyond the pandemic and why Zoom is a buy at current prices.</p>\n<p><b>Bigger Deals</b></p>\n<p>In Q1, Zoom video closed their largest deal ever in terms ofAnnual recurring revenue or ARR, with a leading global financial services firm that selected Zoom Meetings to deploy for over 90,000 hosts. That was only one of the large deals closed by Zoom this past quarter.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2dfff2f2e169efc1c28fa221cd484201\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"388\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Presentation</p>\n<p>The other large deals that Zoom closed in Q1 were:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB) is an American multinational personal care corporation that produces mostly paper-based consumer products and sells them in more than 175 countries. Kimberly is already an existing Zoom Meetings and Video Webinar customer but is now expanding the relationship with Zoom by adding approximately 25,000 Zoom Phone licenses. The sale of Zoom phone licenses was aided by Zoom partner British Telecom, who advocated for Zoom in the decision-making process at Kimberly-Clark.</li>\n <li>Target Corporation (NYSE:TGT) is the eighth-largest retailer in the United States and serves customers at more than 1,900 stores and online atTarget.com. Target was already a longstanding Zoom Meetings customer that increased their commitment by expanding their Zoom platform solutions, while unifying their internal and external communications on Zoom technology.</li>\n <li>Denso is Japan’s largest and the world’s second largest automotive parts company, and a leading company in the Toyota Group. Denso first joined Zoom last year and last quarter, they decided to significantly expand their usage of Zoom Meetings and Zoom Video Webinars for internal and external communications. Zoom now connects 47,000 Denso employees across offices, factories and homes.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Earnings</b></p>\n<p>The growth that Zoom has experienced over the last year continued as Zoom Video knocked it out of the park in Q1 by displaying 191% year-over-year revenue growth or a total of $956 million in revenues. These results exceeded the high end of company guidance of $905 million and beat consensus analyst estimates by $48.06M due to strong sales, marketing execution and lower than expected churn.</p>\n<p>The lower than expected churn is a great thing to hear, as Zoom Video is perceived as a \"COVID-19 stock\" and with both businesses and schools reopening, more churn was certainly expected and the Zoom Video Management had given very conservative guidance because of that expected churn. The fact that Zoom is retaining more business than expected should help lower the perception that Zoom is only a \"COVID-19 stock\" over time, if Zoom proves that it can retain its customers over the next year.</p>\n<p>Let's talk about retention of customers, since it is highly important for Zoom to retain the customers they gained from the pandemic, in order to not be known as only a \"COVID-19 play\".</p>\n<p>Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg has indicated that when investors look at retention, that it is best to segment the customer base into:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Customers with more than 10 employees.</li>\n <li>Customers with fewer than 10 employees.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Customers that have more than 10 employees are generally handled by Zoom's direct sales organization. These type of companies typically buy annual or multi-year agreements.</p>\n<p>Customers with fewer than 10 employees, however, are ones that typically buy the product online, and the vast majority of them are buying on monthly agreements. It is important to remember that most customers with fewer than 10 employees don't have a long-term committed contract.</p>\n<p>The retention in the customers of greater than 10 also winds up being much higher than those in the customers with fewer than 10 employees. Hence, there is a lot more certainty about how customers with more than 10 employees will evolve for Zoom.</p>\n<blockquote>\n We were very pleased with the retention and the renewals in the customers with greater than 10. It was actually stronger than we had forecast. So, that was great. And that part of that is what allowed us to increase our guidance for overachiever key one, but also increase our guidance for the full year.Source: Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg -Nasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conference June 17, 2021 11:00 AM ET\n</blockquote>\n<p>What is really interesting is how Zoom Video views the customers with fewer than 10 employees because that segment has grown in importance during the pandemic. Pre-pandemic customers with fewer than 10 employees was 20% of the revenue, however, the last couple of quarters it's been in the 36% and 37% of revenue area. So, 36% to 37% of Zoom's revenue comes from a volatile segment that is buying on a monthly basis.</p>\n<p>Zoom has retention curves for customers with fewer than 10 employees that show that the highest rate of churn is within a two to three months time period, which is typical of most subscription businesses. Once a customer goes beyond this two to three months time period, a majority of them tend to enter a long tail of retention.</p>\n<p>Essentially, Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg expects that it is going to take a few quarters to get to a point where the less than 10 employees segment enters a period where the churn becomes stable as each new set of customers to Zoom rolls through that 2-3 months period to get to a stable retention point.</p>\n<p>CFO Kelly Steckelberg views it this way:</p>\n<blockquote>\n I think we're going to settle into is a long tail of a stabilized renewal rate for these [fewer than 10] cohorts, but\n <b>that's going to take a few more quarters to get to that stabilized period</b>. And then I think this will be a really nice segment of our business that renew on a consistent basis.Source: Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg -Nasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conference June 17, 2021 11:00 AM ET\n</blockquote>\n<p>So, in essence, it could take to the end of the calendar year before fully understanding how much business that Zoom Video will retain from customers with less than 10 employees but thereafter, wherever the number settles at, it should remain a solid piece of business for Zoom.</p>\n<p>CFO Kelly Steckelberg also went on to say that over time, it is expected that the customers with greater than 10 employees will likely grow faster and while the dollar amount of the customers with fewer than 10 employees will probably be consistent, the percentage of revenue is expected to decrease over time. In others words, not only will customers with fewer than 10 employees stabilize churn over the next several quarters but they will also be a less important percentage of Zoom's business over time.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a57b792bb75e775c7574a9c0458570c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"455\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Investor Presentation</p>\n<p>The strong revenue growth accomplished by Zoom was in addition to posting strong profitability and cash flow numbers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ad131dd74178dcdc567cd866fe7b32cb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"341\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Investor Presentation</p>\n<p>Zoom's Cost of Revenue was $264.99 million.

On a quarter-over-quarter basis, though, expenses grew by 33%, meaning that Zoom remains committed to investing to keep their products in \"best-in-class\" status.</p>\n<p>The 84% year-over-year rise in Sales and Marketing reflects an additional $87 million over last year that was made primarily due to investments in hiring to drive future growth. The NON-GAAP S&amp;M expense was approximately 20% of total revenue, a decrease from Q1 of last year, mainly due to strong top line growth. However, Zoom plans on increasing their marketing investment to add more global sales capacity and brand and product marketing programs in order to capitalize on the opportunity. The focus on marketing might change a little, however, as the Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg has indicated at theNasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conferencethat the company will be moving away from their previous strategy of building brand awareness to focus more on targeted product marketing around products like Zoom Events and Zoom Apps in the future.</p>\n<p>G&amp;A expense in the quarter grew by 51% to $73 million as Zoom continues to invest in systems, automation and compliance to meet their new scale that exploded higher over the past year.

Many businesses have decided that rather than forcing employees to come back into the office, they should evolve the \"workplace\" intoa hybrid work model, by giving their employees the flexibility to choose whether they want to work in the office, remotely, or a combination of the two.</p>\n<blockquote>\n As parts of the world reopened, a few things are clear. First, many customers I talk to are looking to create hybrid solutions as they seek to cautiously reopen some offices.Source: Founder and CEO Eric Yuan -Zoom Q1 FY22 Earnings Webinar\n</blockquote>\n<p>During the Q1 earnings call, the Zoom CEO indicated that in a recent study that the company conducted, 80% of U.S. respondents agreed that all interactions will continue to have a virtual element post-pandemic, and that figure was even higher in many of the markets that Zoom is in. So The hybrid work model is likely here to stay.</p>\n<p>Zoom is currently innovating new products to help their customers evolve into the hybrid work model. One such product isZoom Room. Zoom Room is a physical hardware setup that lets companies schedule and launchZoom Meetingsfrom their conference rooms.</p>\n<p>Zoom Room has features such asvirtual receptionist (Kiosk Mode), participant counting, environmental sensors, voice commands and Smart Gallery which uses AI to create a gallery view of in-room participants, which puts in-room and remote participants on an equal footing.</p>\n<p>Another product that Zoom created for the hybrid work environment that will soon be released isZoom Events, which is an all-in-one platform that gives customers the tools to create engaging virtual experiences. Some of the tools available on Zoom Events are the ability to build a branded event hub, manage ticketing and registration, use one dashboard to administer user access, and the ability to allow attendees to network during an event. The Zoom Events product will be focused on enterprise customers and help support an array of virtual event use cases.</p>\n<p><b>Zoom Phone</b></p>\n<p>Zoom Phone is a service designed for the hybrid work environment. In simple language, Zoom Phone is simply a modern cloud-based phone system that can make and receive calls directly from Zoom. This service also serves as the last piece that Zoom needed to become a full fledgedUCaaS platformdesigned to solve the needs of large enterprise customers.</p>\n<p>Zoom Phoneruns on the same backbone as Zoom Meeting. The only difference between Zoom Phone and Zoom Meeting is that Zoom Phone has phone number management and can seamlessly make and receive phone calls, share content, participate in video meetings, and send chat messages from Zoom desktop and mobile apps. Zoom Phone was launched in January 2019 as a business phone solution that is as simple, reliable, and easy to use as the video platform. Zoom has recently announced surpassing1.5 million Zoom Phone seatssold worldwide, so the service is really starting to take off.</p>\n<p>The company's strategy for selling Zoom Phone is to sell into the existing Zoom Meetings install base. In the first half of this year, Zoom Phones had slower growth as enterprises seemed to pause on considering the product, However, coming into the second half of the year, interest is starting to rise in Zoom Phone as companies want to continue the digital transformation process.</p>\n<p>Many large enterprises are just beginning to realize that there are thousands of phones and phone lines sitting in offices unused because of the COVID-induced work from home trend. Even with the re-opening of offices, the evolvement of the workplace into a hybrid environment where people can work from anywhere, is finally making it click in enterprise leader's minds that by shifting the phone system from being on-prem to being located in the cloud will have the advantage of allowing people to use their company phone lines no matter where they are. Zoom Phone allows employees to carry their phone service on their mobile device or they can have the service on their laptop or desktop.</p>\n<p>In addition, the company hasrecently announcedthis month a new device category called Zoom Phone Appliances to help empower a hybrid workforce by providing an All-In-One Desk Phone Solution for Calls and Meetings. Zoom Phone Appliances will now allow customers to take advantage of all the powerful audio and video capabilities of the Zoom Phone cloud solution on a purpose built hardware solution.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/34d92904f4e683801859a0d33077b2c2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source:Zoom Video Website</p>\n<p>Zoom Phone Appliances will launch with three models, the Poly CCX 600 with Camera, the Poly CCX 700, and the Yealink VP59. This new hardware isalready available today on Zoom's website.</p>\n<p><b>What's Next For Zoom?</b></p>\n<p>Some analyst have speculated that with $4.7 billion on the balance sheet that Zoom could make a possible acquisition, possibly in theContact Center as a Service or CCaaSspace. CCaaS is essentially a virtual call center based in the cloud which aids a customer support function.</p>\n<blockquote>\n \"At some point we believe it makes sense for ZM to buy or build a cloud contact center solution to bundle with Zoom Phone and video, which could add to growth.\"Source: Baird analyst William Power -Investors.com\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Zoom Platform Strategy</b></p>\n<p>In February, really started to invest in a developer ecosystem bylaunching the Zoom Video SDK, which helps developers build and embed fully customizable Zoom video services inside other applications.</p>\n<p>Zoom had already introduced Zoom Apps and the Marketplace to help distribute and sell the apps last year at the virtualZoomtopia user conference.</p>\n<p>In April, Zoom enhanced Zoom Apps by announcing a $100 million Zoom Apps Fund to further build the app ecosystem. This is an attempt by Zoom to integrate apps directly into the Zoom experience so that users don’t have to switch back and forth between multiple applications, which should help collaboration and boost efficiency.</p>\n<p><b>International Opportunities</b></p>\n<p>International has always been one of the key growth strategies for the last several years. In recent quarters, Zoom made significant investments in their international teams, and the progress from those investments can already be seen.</p>\n<p>International markets showed strong growth during the quarter. Americas revenue grew 159% year-over-year. The combined APAC and EMEA revenue grew 288% year-over-year to become approximately 34% of revenue, up from 25% a year ago.</p>\n<p>Pre-pandemic Europe was a couple of years behind the U.S. in terms of video adoption. But that's likely not the case anymore. Globally, video adoption has become a communication mode that everybody is now comfortable with. The global opportunity remains large and Zoom plans to capitalize on their opportunities.</p>\n<p>The pandemic has raised Zoom's brand awareness and what that has done is really open up markets worldwide that pre-pandemic would have not been on Zoom's roadmap for a few years. An example of one market that the pandemic opened up for Zoom is Latin America. If the pandemic had never happened, Zoom would have probably only considered entering the area several years down the road. The pandemic has greatly accelerated the timetable on Latin America, as Zoom is already hiring reps in the area. Zoom Video is already seeing results in Latin America., as it was one of the company's strongest performing regions in Q1.</p>\n<p>International as a whole was a little over 30% of Zoom's revenue in Q1 and management expects over the long term that international revenue could make up 40% to 50% of the revenue, so expect Zoom to continue to invest strongly in international opportunities.</p>\n<p><b>So Exactly How Does Zoom Make Those Sales?</b></p>\n<p>Zoom uses a freemium model to make potential customers aware of their Zoom Meeting product, which helped the company to grow significantly during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The way the freemium model works for Zoom is that every time a free host starts a meeting, it often exposes some other potential customer to the Zoom Meetings product. This is the way many people have become initially aware of Zoom and this method of introduction to Zoom continues to happen on a global basis. Zoom has a very viral nature that has always been a very important part of the company's go to market strategy.</p>\n<p>After people become aware of Zoom, the most common reason people would decide to upgrade from free to paid is due to the 40 minutes time limit. This means that promoting more usage on the platform has the side effect of motivating people to upgrade to paid. Zoom will also market to free users things like Zoom Phone and try to encourage them to become a multi-product user, which often also motivates them to upgrade.</p>\n<p>Generally, the way things work upmarket with enterprise customers is that Zoom account reps work on anamed account basis. The way it works is Zoom sales teams will look into the free user base to see if they can find domains with account names that can be recognized, and the sales teams will reach out to those account names, especially if the team starts to see a concentration of free users within a certain domain, then the Zoom sales team will reach out to the head of IT or the CIO and say, \"Hey, can we talk about putting an enterprise license agreement in place?\" That's essentially how Zoom sales teams operate with many new potential major enterprise customers.</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>Among the biggest risks Zoom Video has involves security. Last year, security researchers foundseveral major vulnerabilitieswith Zoom Meeting. Zoom hasrapidly addressed all of the security issuesthat plagued the company in 2020. However, any major security issues Zoom has in the future could substantially damage the company's reputation and cause customers to be lost.</p>\n<p>Another risk that Zoom will face in 2021 is the possibility of high churn as the pandemic ends, especially in the group of customers with less than 10 employees. Companies with less than 10 customers usually only have month to month subscriptions. It will probably take to the end of 2021 before the churn rate of the less than 10 customers stabilizes.</p>\n<p>Last but not least, Zoom's competitors are now aware that video teleconferencing is a major market opportunity and companies ranging from Google and Microsoft to LogMeIn and Fuze are all making attempts to enter the market. Zoom will likely have to invest heavily to stay ahead of its competitors.</p>\n<p><b>Competition</b></p>\n<p>Zoom hasmany competitorsthat include Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Teams and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL) Hangouts. Zoom Video has differentiated itself from all of their competitors from the beginning by having the best combination of usability, reliability, performance, focus on the user experience, and remote work features. Also, many companies favor Zoom because the company's tools usually don't require a lot of support from tech staff. It is the combination of all of those above things which makes Zoom Meeting a favorite from the kindergarten class room setting, all the way up to the largest Fortune 10 company. Zoom has been generally acknowledged by most people to be thebest video-conferencing service.</p>\n<p>Zoom was founded in 2011 by Eric Yuan, a former corporate vice president for Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) Webex. Eric Yuan left Cisco Webex because he was disappointed that whenever he would talk to Cisco Webex’s customers about the video-conferencing product that he’d helped build, that the feedback was always negative and customers were not happy.</p>\n<p>Webex was ultimately a flawed product that was too slow in developing into a product that customers loved and Cisco also didn't put a whole lot of effort into the development of the software during the time of Yuan's employment. So, Yuan left Cisco with 40 engineers with a vision to develop a videoconferencing software platform focused from the ground up to make customers happy. The original company was named Saasbee but the name later changed to Zoom Video in May 2012. The full story of the founding of Zoomcan be read here.</p>\n<p>The reason why I referenced the founding of Zoom Video here is to illustrate that the very founding of the company was built on a foundation of a desire to solve customer's pain points with videoconferencing software and make customers happy. Previous to Zoom, most videoconferencing software companies were not really in the business of solving customer pain points and many were only offering clunky, hard to use software.</p>\n<p>In the long-term, the competitor that Zoom Video management really thinks the most of is Microsoft Teams. Currently, Zoom management believes that Meetings is the preferred product that most users want to use, however, there are some customers that want to use Microsoft Teams for certain aspects of their suite, but also want it to be used in conjunction with Zoom. For instance, a customer might prefer to use Microsoft Teams Chat, but they also might prefer to use Zoom for meetings and for phone. For that reason, Zoom offers an integration with Microsoft that allows customers to do things like launch a Zoom Meeting from within the Teams interface or launch a Zoom Meeting within a Microsoft enabled conference room.</p>\n<p>So, Microsoft and Zoom have a frenemy type relationship. While Zoom Video will continue to work with Microsoft Teams, Zoom wants to remain the overall preferred choice in a category known asUnified Communications as a Service or UCaaS, which is why Zoom continues to invest heavily in innovation. Zoom spends a lot of time listening to their customers' needs, especially in areas likehybrid work environmentand innovation in the conference room with products like Smart Gallery.</p>\n<p>As for Google Meet, it is part of Google Workspace (Formerly G Suite), along with Google chat. Google Meet is a very good video-conferencing service. People that are very heavy users of Google products might be satisfied with Google Meet, however,Zoom is often a better optionfor large enterprises that want 250 people or more people on the calls or need things like conference room support or whiteboards.</p>\n<p>Another advantage that Zoom Video has is that the pandemic helped make the name ‘Zoom’ become the‘Kleenex’ of video calling. Zoom Video is now branded in such a way that the perception of many people is that Zoom is the best option (whether that happens to be true for a specific situation or not). Zoom's powerful viral nature has also seemed to create somewhat of a network effect that often influences people when making a decision on which videoconferencing software to use.</p>\n<p>There are many, many competitors out there, including the nowrebranded WebexandVerizon's Bluejeansbut in almost all cases Zoom either has better features, better usability or is technically superior in some way. In addition, no company has quite the branding in videoconferencing that Zoom has, which often makes the company the first choice to be considered when a company desires videoconferencing software.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Company</td>\n   <td>Mkt Cap</td>\n   <td><p>Price/Sales</p></td>\n   <td>Free Cash Flow Margin %</td>\n   <td>EV/Revenues (FWD)</td>\n   <td>Revenue Growth (Y/Y) %</td>\n   <td>Gross Margins %</td>\n   <td>Revenues</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Zoom Video (ZM)</td>\n   <td>$109.89B</td>\n   <td>34.28</td>\n   <td>47.50%</td>\n   <td>26.37</td>\n   <td>191.4%</td>\n   <td>72.29%</td>\n   <td>$956.24M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Snowflake (SNOW)</td>\n   <td>$73.85B</td>\n   <td>89.74</td>\n   <td>1.09%</td>\n   <td>62.71</td>\n   <td>123.60%</td>\n   <td>57.74%</td>\n   <td>$228.91M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Twilio (TWLO)</td>\n   <td><p>$62.95B</p></td>\n   <td>28.43</td>\n   <td>-1.85%</td>\n   <td>23.20</td>\n   <td>61.70%</td>\n   <td>50.56%</td>\n   <td>$589.99M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>RingCentral (RNG)</td>\n   <td>$25.91B</td>\n   <td>20.72</td>\n   <td>2.87%</td>\n   <td>18.02</td>\n   <td>31.72%</td>\n   <td>72.48%</td>\n   <td>$352.36M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Nice Ltd.

Zoom compares very, very well against Snowflake as Zoom is currently growing faster and is far more profitable currently than Snowflake.</p>\n<p>At its size, Zoom Video is still among the fastest growing companies in the market. I find it amazing that Zoom made near $1B in revenues in the quarter and still had 191% revenue growth with 47.50% Free Cash Flow margin.

When COVID-19 reached American shores like a tidal wave in March 2020, social distancing directives forced large swaths of society online and one of the primary ways businesses of all types and schools functioned was through the use of Zoom Video's Meetings and Chat products, Rooms and Workspaces products, Phone System, and Video Webinars.\nJust to give an idea of Zoom's growth because of the pandemic, in December of 2019, Zoom was averaging 10 million daily meeting participants. And by April, that number had already grown to 300 million daily meeting participants, so 30-times growth within a matter of months.\nZoom Video's rapid expansion also brought a rapid expansion in the stock price. Zoom Video opened at $66.63 on January 6th, 2020 and by October 19, 2020 reached an all-time closing high of $568.34.\nSince reaching those highs in October, Zoom's stock has drastically backed off the highs, with some of the reason partially due to valuation but the other part of the reason was the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccine.\nData by YCharts\nOn December 11, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issuedthe first emergency use authorization (EUA)for Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine. Many investors believe that Zoom Video is only a \"COVID stock\", meaning that substantially all of the company's business over the past year was due to COVID and there is a perception that when the world goes \"back to normal\", that Zoom will encounter a substantial loss of business. That perception persisted into early May to the point where Zoom's stock closed at $288.49 on May 10th, 2021.\nSince the lows in May, Zoom has rebounded to close at $372.95 on June 17th, 2021. The question for investors now becomes whether the perception of Zoom being a \"COVID stock\" that will churn customers and lose a lot of business as the pandemic subsides is true or not? In this article I will go over Zoom Video's earnings and I will also highlight reasons why I believe that Zoom Video has a strong business beyond the pandemic and why Zoom is a buy at current prices.\nBigger Deals\nIn Q1, Zoom video closed their largest deal ever in terms ofAnnual recurring revenue or ARR, with a leading global financial services firm that selected Zoom Meetings to deploy for over 90,000 hosts. That was only one of the large deals closed by Zoom this past quarter.\nSource:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Presentation\nThe other large deals that Zoom closed in Q1 were:\n\nKimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB) is an American multinational personal care corporation that produces mostly paper-based consumer products and sells them in more than 175 countries. Kimberly is already an existing Zoom Meetings and Video Webinar customer but is now expanding the relationship with Zoom by adding approximately 25,000 Zoom Phone licenses. The sale of Zoom phone licenses was aided by Zoom partner British Telecom, who advocated for Zoom in the decision-making process at Kimberly-Clark.\nTarget Corporation (NYSE:TGT) is the eighth-largest retailer in the United States and serves customers at more than 1,900 stores and online atTarget.com. Target was already a longstanding Zoom Meetings customer that increased their commitment by expanding their Zoom platform solutions, while unifying their internal and external communications on Zoom technology.\nDenso is Japan’s largest and the world’s second largest automotive parts company, and a leading company in the Toyota Group. Denso first joined Zoom last year and last quarter, they decided to significantly expand their usage of Zoom Meetings and Zoom Video Webinars for internal and external communications. Zoom now connects 47,000 Denso employees across offices, factories and homes.\n\nZoom Video Q1 FY22 Earnings\nThe growth that Zoom has experienced over the last year continued as Zoom Video knocked it out of the park in Q1 by displaying 191% year-over-year revenue growth or a total of $956 million in revenues. These results exceeded the high end of company guidance of $905 million and beat consensus analyst estimates by $48.06M due to strong sales, marketing execution and lower than expected churn.\nThe lower than expected churn is a great thing to hear, as Zoom Video is perceived as a \"COVID-19 stock\" and with both businesses and schools reopening, more churn was certainly expected and the Zoom Video Management had given very conservative guidance because of that expected churn. The fact that Zoom is retaining more business than expected should help lower the perception that Zoom is only a \"COVID-19 stock\" over time, if Zoom proves that it can retain its customers over the next year.\nLet's talk about retention of customers, since it is highly important for Zoom to retain the customers they gained from the pandemic, in order to not be known as only a \"COVID-19 play\".\nZoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg has indicated that when investors look at retention, that it is best to segment the customer base into:\n\nCustomers with more than 10 employees.\nCustomers with fewer than 10 employees.\n\nCustomers that have more than 10 employees are generally handled by Zoom's direct sales organization. These type of companies typically buy annual or multi-year agreements.\nCustomers with fewer than 10 employees, however, are ones that typically buy the product online, and the vast majority of them are buying on monthly agreements. It is important to remember that most customers with fewer than 10 employees don't have a long-term committed contract.\nThe retention in the customers of greater than 10 also winds up being much higher than those in the customers with fewer than 10 employees. Hence, there is a lot more certainty about how customers with more than 10 employees will evolve for Zoom.\n\n We were very pleased with the retention and the renewals in the customers with greater than 10. It was actually stronger than we had forecast. So, that was great. And that part of that is what allowed us to increase our guidance for overachiever key one, but also increase our guidance for the full year.Source: Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg -Nasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conference June 17, 2021 11:00 AM ET\n\nWhat is really interesting is how Zoom Video views the customers with fewer than 10 employees because that segment has grown in importance during the pandemic. Pre-pandemic customers with fewer than 10 employees was 20% of the revenue, however, the last couple of quarters it's been in the 36% and 37% of revenue area. So, 36% to 37% of Zoom's revenue comes from a volatile segment that is buying on a monthly basis.\nZoom has retention curves for customers with fewer than 10 employees that show that the highest rate of churn is within a two to three months time period, which is typical of most subscription businesses. Once a customer goes beyond this two to three months time period, a majority of them tend to enter a long tail of retention.\nEssentially, Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg expects that it is going to take a few quarters to get to a point where the less than 10 employees segment enters a period where the churn becomes stable as each new set of customers to Zoom rolls through that 2-3 months period to get to a stable retention point.\nCFO Kelly Steckelberg views it this way:\n\n I think we're going to settle into is a long tail of a stabilized renewal rate for these [fewer than 10] cohorts, but\n that's going to take a few more quarters to get to that stabilized period. And then I think this will be a really nice segment of our business that renew on a consistent basis.Source: Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg -Nasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conference June 17, 2021 11:00 AM ET\n\nSo, in essence, it could take to the end of the calendar year before fully understanding how much business that Zoom Video will retain from customers with less than 10 employees but thereafter, wherever the number settles at, it should remain a solid piece of business for Zoom.\nCFO Kelly Steckelberg also went on to say that over time, it is expected that the customers with greater than 10 employees will likely grow faster and while the dollar amount of the customers with fewer than 10 employees will probably be consistent, the percentage of revenue is expected to decrease over time. In others words, not only will customers with fewer than 10 employees stabilize churn over the next several quarters but they will also be a less important percentage of Zoom's business over time.\nSource:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Investor Presentation\nThe strong revenue growth accomplished by Zoom was in addition to posting strong profitability and cash flow numbers.\n\nSource:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Investor Presentation\nZoom's Cost of Revenue was $264.99 million. Gross Profit was $691.24 with a Gross Margin of 72.29%.\nData by YCharts\nTotal Operating Expenses were $464.93 million, broken down as follows:\n\nResearch and development $65.19 Million\nSales and Marketing $245.67 Million\nGeneral and administrative $154.09 Million\n\nResearch and development expense grew by 97% year-over-year to approximately $41 million. As a percentage of total revenue, the Non-GAAP R&D expense was approximately 4.3%, which is lower than in Q1 of last year, mainly due to the strong top line growth. On a quarter-over-quarter basis, though, expenses grew by 33%, meaning that Zoom remains committed to investing to keep their products in \"best-in-class\" status.\nThe 84% year-over-year rise in Sales and Marketing reflects an additional $87 million over last year that was made primarily due to investments in hiring to drive future growth. The NON-GAAP S&M expense was approximately 20% of total revenue, a decrease from Q1 of last year, mainly due to strong top line growth. However, Zoom plans on increasing their marketing investment to add more global sales capacity and brand and product marketing programs in order to capitalize on the opportunity. The focus on marketing might change a little, however, as the Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg has indicated at theNasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conferencethat the company will be moving away from their previous strategy of building brand awareness to focus more on targeted product marketing around products like Zoom Events and Zoom Apps in the future.\nG&A expense in the quarter grew by 51% to $73 million as Zoom continues to invest in systems, automation and compliance to meet their new scale that exploded higher over the past year. G&A expense was approximately 7.7% of total revenue, a decrease from Q1 of last year.\n\n For the long-term, you should expect our margins to be more in the range of 25% plus as today we're currently under investing in R&D, [Non-GAAP] R&D in Q1 was 4.3%. We really want that to be in the range of 8% to 10% for the long-term and then sales and marketing, we're also under investing currently today.Source: Zoom CFO Kelly Steckelberg -Nasdaq 44th Virtual Investor Conference June 17, 2021 11:00 AM ET\n\nZoom's Q1 GAAP Income from operations totaled $226.31 Million, with an Operating Margin of 23.7%.\nData by YCharts\nZoom recorded a GAAP Net Income of $227.53 Million and a GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.74 per share.\nData by YCharts\nA few customer metrics:\n\nApproximately 497,000 customers with more than 10 employees, up approximately 87% from the same quarter last fiscal year.\n1,999 customers contributing more than $100,000 in trailing 12 months revenue, up approximately 160% from the same quarter last fiscal year.\nA trailing 12-monthnet dollar expansion ratein customers with more than 10 employees above 130% for the 12th consecutive quarter.\nRevenue Performance Obligation or RPO totaled approximately $2.1 billion, up 94% year-over-year from $1.1 billion. RPO is simply billed and unbilled revenue that has yet to be recognized. Zoom management expects to recognize approximately 72% of the total RPO as revenue over the next 12 months, consistent with the level of this metric last year.\n\nAs far as RPO goes, It’s important that investors remember that deferred revenue and RPO trends arenot reliable predictors of future revenue growthdue to the large percent of monthly billings in the customer base from customers that have fewer than 10 employees.\nIt is also important to be aware that the timing of the company's renewals has increasingly shifted to the beginning of the fiscal year, with Q1 now representing the largest renewal quarter. Each of the sequential increases in deferred revenue and RPO in each of the remaining quarters will be lower as the available population of annual renewals is smaller.\nCompany Guidance\n\nSource:Zoom Video Q1 FY22 Investor Presentation\nBalance Sheet\nZoom's balance sheet is in great shape. Zoom Video's total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, excluding restricted cash, as of April 30, 2021 was $4.7 billion.\nZoom Video's total current liabilities is $1.5 billion. Zoom Video has a Debt To Equity ratio of .02 and aQuick Ratio (Acid Test)of 3.32. A Good Quick Ratio is any number above 1.0.\nAs for Cash flow, the net cash provided by operating activities was $533.3 million for the first quarter, compared to $259.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. Free cash flow, which is net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, was $454.2 million, compared to $251.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021.\nData by YChartsZoom Aides A Hybrid Work Model For Customers\nShortly after COVID-19 hit American shores in March of 2020, it wasn't long before Zoom Video Communications became classified as a \"pandemic stock\", as \"shelter in place\" forced businesses to close offices and connect with employees in a work-at-home environment through the use of Zoom's products.\nNow that the pandemic is on the beginning edges of subsiding and offices are re-opening, companies have started to re-imagine the workplace. Many businesses have decided that rather than forcing employees to come back into the office, they should evolve the \"workplace\" intoa hybrid work model, by giving their employees the flexibility to choose whether they want to work in the office, remotely, or a combination of the two.\n\n As parts of the world reopened, a few things are clear. First, many customers I talk to are looking to create hybrid solutions as they seek to cautiously reopen some offices.Source: Founder and CEO Eric Yuan -Zoom Q1 FY22 Earnings Webinar\n\nDuring the Q1 earnings call, the Zoom CEO indicated that in a recent study that the company conducted, 80% of U.S. respondents agreed that all interactions will continue to have a virtual element post-pandemic, and that figure was even higher in many of the markets that Zoom is in. So The hybrid work model is likely here to stay.\nZoom is currently innovating new products to help their customers evolve into the hybrid work model. One such product isZoom Room. Zoom Room is a physical hardware setup that lets companies schedule and launchZoom Meetingsfrom their conference rooms.\nZoom Room has features such asvirtual receptionist (Kiosk Mode), participant counting, environmental sensors, voice commands and Smart Gallery which uses AI to create a gallery view of in-room participants, which puts in-room and remote participants on an equal footing.\nAnother product that Zoom created for the hybrid work environment that will soon be released isZoom Events, which is an all-in-one platform that gives customers the tools to create engaging virtual experiences. Some of the tools available on Zoom Events are the ability to build a branded event hub, manage ticketing and registration, use one dashboard to administer user access, and the ability to allow attendees to network during an event. The Zoom Events product will be focused on enterprise customers and help support an array of virtual event use cases.\nZoom Phone\nZoom Phone is a service designed for the hybrid work environment. In simple language, Zoom Phone is simply a modern cloud-based phone system that can make and receive calls directly from Zoom. This service also serves as the last piece that Zoom needed to become a full fledgedUCaaS platformdesigned to solve the needs of large enterprise customers.\nZoom Phoneruns on the same backbone as Zoom Meeting. The only difference between Zoom Phone and Zoom Meeting is that Zoom Phone has phone number management and can seamlessly make and receive phone calls, share content, participate in video meetings, and send chat messages from Zoom desktop and mobile apps. Zoom Phone was launched in January 2019 as a business phone solution that is as simple, reliable, and easy to use as the video platform. Zoom has recently announced surpassing1.5 million Zoom Phone seatssold worldwide, so the service is really starting to take off.\nThe company's strategy for selling Zoom Phone is to sell into the existing Zoom Meetings install base. In the first half of this year, Zoom Phones had slower growth as enterprises seemed to pause on considering the product, However, coming into the second half of the year, interest is starting to rise in Zoom Phone as companies want to continue the digital transformation process.\nMany large enterprises are just beginning to realize that there are thousands of phones and phone lines sitting in offices unused because of the COVID-induced work from home trend. Even with the re-opening of offices, the evolvement of the workplace into a hybrid environment where people can work from anywhere, is finally making it click in enterprise leader's minds that by shifting the phone system from being on-prem to being located in the cloud will have the advantage of allowing people to use their company phone lines no matter where they are. Zoom Phone allows employees to carry their phone service on their mobile device or they can have the service on their laptop or desktop.\nIn addition, the company hasrecently announcedthis month a new device category called Zoom Phone Appliances to help empower a hybrid workforce by providing an All-In-One Desk Phone Solution for Calls and Meetings. Zoom Phone Appliances will now allow customers to take advantage of all the powerful audio and video capabilities of the Zoom Phone cloud solution on a purpose built hardware solution.\nSource:Zoom Video Website\nZoom Phone Appliances will launch with three models, the Poly CCX 600 with Camera, the Poly CCX 700, and the Yealink VP59. This new hardware isalready available today on Zoom's website.\nWhat's Next For Zoom?\nSome analyst have speculated that with $4.7 billion on the balance sheet that Zoom could make a possible acquisition, possibly in theContact Center as a Service or CCaaSspace. CCaaS is essentially a virtual call center based in the cloud which aids a customer support function.\n\n \"At some point we believe it makes sense for ZM to buy or build a cloud contact center solution to bundle with Zoom Phone and video, which could add to growth.\"Source: Baird analyst William Power -Investors.com\n\nZoom Platform Strategy\nIn February, really started to invest in a developer ecosystem bylaunching the Zoom Video SDK, which helps developers build and embed fully customizable Zoom video services inside other applications.\nZoom had already introduced Zoom Apps and the Marketplace to help distribute and sell the apps last year at the virtualZoomtopia user conference.\nIn April, Zoom enhanced Zoom Apps by announcing a $100 million Zoom Apps Fund to further build the app ecosystem. This is an attempt by Zoom to integrate apps directly into the Zoom experience so that users don’t have to switch back and forth between multiple applications, which should help collaboration and boost efficiency.\nInternational Opportunities\nInternational has always been one of the key growth strategies for the last several years. In recent quarters, Zoom made significant investments in their international teams, and the progress from those investments can already be seen.\nInternational markets showed strong growth during the quarter. Americas revenue grew 159% year-over-year. The combined APAC and EMEA revenue grew 288% year-over-year to become approximately 34% of revenue, up from 25% a year ago.\nPre-pandemic Europe was a couple of years behind the U.S. in terms of video adoption. But that's likely not the case anymore. Globally, video adoption has become a communication mode that everybody is now comfortable with. The global opportunity remains large and Zoom plans to capitalize on their opportunities.\nThe pandemic has raised Zoom's brand awareness and what that has done is really open up markets worldwide that pre-pandemic would have not been on Zoom's roadmap for a few years. An example of one market that the pandemic opened up for Zoom is Latin America. If the pandemic had never happened, Zoom would have probably only considered entering the area several years down the road. The pandemic has greatly accelerated the timetable on Latin America, as Zoom is already hiring reps in the area. Zoom Video is already seeing results in Latin America., as it was one of the company's strongest performing regions in Q1.\nInternational as a whole was a little over 30% of Zoom's revenue in Q1 and management expects over the long term that international revenue could make up 40% to 50% of the revenue, so expect Zoom to continue to invest strongly in international opportunities.\nSo Exactly How Does Zoom Make Those Sales?\nZoom uses a freemium model to make potential customers aware of their Zoom Meeting product, which helped the company to grow significantly during the pandemic.\nThe way the freemium model works for Zoom is that every time a free host starts a meeting, it often exposes some other potential customer to the Zoom Meetings product. This is the way many people have become initially aware of Zoom and this method of introduction to Zoom continues to happen on a global basis. Zoom has a very viral nature that has always been a very important part of the company's go to market strategy.\nAfter people become aware of Zoom, the most common reason people would decide to upgrade from free to paid is due to the 40 minutes time limit. This means that promoting more usage on the platform has the side effect of motivating people to upgrade to paid. Zoom will also market to free users things like Zoom Phone and try to encourage them to become a multi-product user, which often also motivates them to upgrade.\nGenerally, the way things work upmarket with enterprise customers is that Zoom account reps work on anamed account basis. The way it works is Zoom sales teams will look into the free user base to see if they can find domains with account names that can be recognized, and the sales teams will reach out to those account names, especially if the team starts to see a concentration of free users within a certain domain, then the Zoom sales team will reach out to the head of IT or the CIO and say, \"Hey, can we talk about putting an enterprise license agreement in place?\" That's essentially how Zoom sales teams operate with many new potential major enterprise customers.\nRisks\nAmong the biggest risks Zoom Video has involves security. Last year, security researchers foundseveral major vulnerabilitieswith Zoom Meeting. Zoom hasrapidly addressed all of the security issuesthat plagued the company in 2020. However, any major security issues Zoom has in the future could substantially damage the company's reputation and cause customers to be lost.\nAnother risk that Zoom will face in 2021 is the possibility of high churn as the pandemic ends, especially in the group of customers with less than 10 employees. Companies with less than 10 customers usually only have month to month subscriptions. It will probably take to the end of 2021 before the churn rate of the less than 10 customers stabilizes.\nLast but not least, Zoom's competitors are now aware that video teleconferencing is a major market opportunity and companies ranging from Google and Microsoft to LogMeIn and Fuze are all making attempts to enter the market. Zoom will likely have to invest heavily to stay ahead of its competitors.\nCompetition\nZoom hasmany competitorsthat include Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Teams and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL) Hangouts. Zoom Video has differentiated itself from all of their competitors from the beginning by having the best combination of usability, reliability, performance, focus on the user experience, and remote work features. Also, many companies favor Zoom because the company's tools usually don't require a lot of support from tech staff. It is the combination of all of those above things which makes Zoom Meeting a favorite from the kindergarten class room setting, all the way up to the largest Fortune 10 company. Zoom has been generally acknowledged by most people to be thebest video-conferencing service.\nZoom was founded in 2011 by Eric Yuan, a former corporate vice president for Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) Webex. Eric Yuan left Cisco Webex because he was disappointed that whenever he would talk to Cisco Webex’s customers about the video-conferencing product that he’d helped build, that the feedback was always negative and customers were not happy.\nWebex was ultimately a flawed product that was too slow in developing into a product that customers loved and Cisco also didn't put a whole lot of effort into the development of the software during the time of Yuan's employment. So, Yuan left Cisco with 40 engineers with a vision to develop a videoconferencing software platform focused from the ground up to make customers happy. The original company was named Saasbee but the name later changed to Zoom Video in May 2012. The full story of the founding of Zoomcan be read here.\nThe reason why I referenced the founding of Zoom Video here is to illustrate that the very founding of the company was built on a foundation of a desire to solve customer's pain points with videoconferencing software and make customers happy. Previous to Zoom, most videoconferencing software companies were not really in the business of solving customer pain points and many were only offering clunky, hard to use software.\nIn the long-term, the competitor that Zoom Video management really thinks the most of is Microsoft Teams. Currently, Zoom management believes that Meetings is the preferred product that most users want to use, however, there are some customers that want to use Microsoft Teams for certain aspects of their suite, but also want it to be used in conjunction with Zoom. For instance, a customer might prefer to use Microsoft Teams Chat, but they also might prefer to use Zoom for meetings and for phone. For that reason, Zoom offers an integration with Microsoft that allows customers to do things like launch a Zoom Meeting from within the Teams interface or launch a Zoom Meeting within a Microsoft enabled conference room.\nSo, Microsoft and Zoom have a frenemy type relationship. While Zoom Video will continue to work with Microsoft Teams, Zoom wants to remain the overall preferred choice in a category known asUnified Communications as a Service or UCaaS, which is why Zoom continues to invest heavily in innovation. Zoom spends a lot of time listening to their customers' needs, especially in areas likehybrid work environmentand innovation in the conference room with products like Smart Gallery.\nAs for Google Meet, it is part of Google Workspace (Formerly G Suite), along with Google chat. Google Meet is a very good video-conferencing service. People that are very heavy users of Google products might be satisfied with Google Meet, however,Zoom is often a better optionfor large enterprises that want 250 people or more people on the calls or need things like conference room support or whiteboards.\nAnother advantage that Zoom Video has is that the pandemic helped make the name ‘Zoom’ become the‘Kleenex’ of video calling. Zoom Video is now branded in such a way that the perception of many people is that Zoom is the best option (whether that happens to be true for a specific situation or not). Zoom's powerful viral nature has also seemed to create somewhat of a network effect that often influences people when making a decision on which videoconferencing software to use.\nThere are many, many competitors out there, including the nowrebranded WebexandVerizon's Bluejeansbut in almost all cases Zoom either has better features, better usability or is technically superior in some way. In addition, no company has quite the branding in videoconferencing that Zoom has, which often makes the company the first choice to be considered when a company desires videoconferencing software.\nValuation\n\n\n\nCompany\nMkt Cap\nPrice/Sales\nFree Cash Flow Margin %\nEV/Revenues (FWD)\nRevenue Growth (Y/Y) %\nGross Margins %\nRevenues\n\n\nZoom Video (ZM)\n$109.89B\n34.28\n47.50%\n26.37\n191.4%\n72.29%\n$956.24M\n\n\nSnowflake (SNOW)\n$73.85B\n89.74\n1.09%\n62.71\n123.60%\n57.74%\n$228.91M\n\n\nTwilio (TWLO)\n$62.95B\n28.43\n-1.85%\n23.20\n61.70%\n50.56%\n$589.99M\n\n\nRingCentral (RNG)\n$25.91B\n20.72\n2.87%\n18.02\n31.72%\n72.48%\n$352.36M\n\n\nNice Ltd.

I also included Snowflake (NYSE:SNOW) to compare Zoom to perhaps the most highly valued company in the market. Zoom compares very, very well against Snowflake as Zoom is currently growing faster and is far more profitable currently than Snowflake.\nAt its size, Zoom Video is still among the fastest growing companies in the market. I find it amazing that Zoom made near $1B in revenues in the quarter and still had 191% revenue growth with 47.50% Free Cash Flow margin. Zoom very much deserves its high valuation in comparison to other companies in cloud communication and videoconferencing industry.\nData by YCharts\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nIn 2021, Zoom Video recorded Annual YoY Revenue growth of 325.8%. According to analyst projections, Zoom should make $4.0B in annual revenues for 2022 for an Annual YoY Revenue growth of 51%. So Zoom Video is still growing revenue briskly. Zoom Video has a very good history of beating analysts' estimates on both Revenues and EPS.\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nThe following is based on 21 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Snowflake in the last 3 months. The average price target is $414.97 with a high forecast of $540.00 and a low forecast of $242.00. The average price target represents a 10.88% from the last price of $240.60.\nSource:Yahoo Finance\nRBC recently highlighted Zoom as itstop pickwith commentary suggesting that Zoom's \"sharp pullback\" has created an attractive entry point for a company that will be a \"critical component\" of the coming hybrid work environment.\nConclusion\nPeople that invest in Zoom Video are counting on the company to retain many small business accounts as the pandemic eases, as well as continuing the strong gains in larger corporate accounts. In addition, another thing we want to see is Zoom's go-to-market efforts result in successfully converting more free users into paying subscribers.\nInvestors will also want to see Zoom continuing to build out their platform by attracting more developers with Zoom Video SDK, while also enticing more customers to use Zoom apps. Furthermore, Zoom needs to show strong growth in the company's newer products like Zoom Events and Zoom Phone to capture more of the growing hybrid work tools market, in order for investors to see a Zoom investment be profitable from current prices.\nAs one of the premier growth companies in the market today and one of the biggest potential winners of emerging hybrid work environment, Zoom Video is a buy at current prices for those investors looking to add a high growth stock to their portfolio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":117,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168225630,"gmtCreate":1623976884820,"gmtModify":1703825138255,"author":{"id":"3585568973332418","authorId":"3585568973332418","name":"Mjoo","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585568973332418","idStr":"3585568973332418"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great great!!!!!

Recall that the company partnered with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon.com</a> (NASDAQ: AMZN) to develop an app store for connected cars. If you believe that its auto app store, IVY, will be a big hit, any weakness in BB stock is an opportunity to scoop up the shares at a discount. Given all these points, would you consider BB stock a long-term investment?</p><p>Cloudflare</p><p>Cloudflare is possibly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the most exciting cloud companies to look out for if you are investing for the long term. For those unfamiliar with the business, Cloudflare’s aim is to build a better and safer internet. Some of the company’s potential growth drivers include serverless computing, internet of things (IoT), and 5G. These present massive opportunities for the company to tap into. With more businesses moving their operations to the cloud, Cloudflare could see explosive growth in this burgeoning cybersecurity industry. That’s because of its role in safeguarding and speeding up the internet.</p><p>From the company’s first-quarter earnings, revenue came in 51% higher year-over-year to $138.1 million. The network security and content delivery network (CDN) provider also sees strong large customer growth, with a record addition of roughly 120 large customers in the quarter. More importantly, large customers now represent greater than 50% of revenue. Following these earnings, NET stock has surged more than 20% over the past month. With such strong fundamentals, should investors buy NET stock right now?</p><p>Square</p><p>Square is another growth stock to watch capitalizing on the fintech megatrend. It combines software with hardware to enable sellers to utilize mobile devices and computing devices for payments and point-of-sale solutions. It has played a vital role in the digital economy and has empowered millions to shift to its digital payment solutions.</p><p>If you have been keeping up with the lateststock market news, you have likely heard of meme stocks. And when it comes tomeme stocks, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMC\">AMC Entertainment</a> (NYSE: AMC) will most probably be the first to pop up in your mind. But in our article today, we are more interested in BlackBerry as it is at the forefront of two of the biggest trends today, namely IT security and autonomous driving. The meme stocks rally is sending BB stock at least 70% higher over the past week.</p><p>From its first-quarter fiscal earnings, gross profit came in 79% higher year-over-year to $964 million. In detail, Square’s Seller ecosystem generated $468 million in gross profit for the quarter, a 32% increase compared to a year earlier. Also, its Cash App generated a whopping $495 million in gross profit, an increase of 171% year-over-year. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSS\">Total</a> net revenue for the quarter was $5.06 billion, up by 266% year-over-year. If anything, the company has also shown commendable resilience. Despite strict lockdowns around the world, its Seller’s gross profit continued to grow. All things considered, will you add SQ stock to your portfolio?</p><p>Zynga</p><p>After Gamestop (NYSE: GME), Zynga is probably the most discussed gaming company among millennials. Zynga is a company behind many successful mobile games, such as<i>Words with Friends</i>and<i>Zynga Poker,</i>just to name a few. Recently, Zynga announced the acquisition of game developer Rollic, which has launched the popular games<i>High Heels!</i>And<i>Blob Runner <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DDD\">3D</a>.</i>In addition, the company has also bought the Echtra game company, which is likely to strengthen Zynga’s development capabilities for future cross-platform projects.</p><p>From its first-quarter earnings, revenue came in 68% higher year-over-year to $680 million. Following strong top-line growth, Zynga went on to raise its full-year 2021 guidance for revenue to $2.7 billion, representing a growth of 37% year-over-year. Considering the strong growth in its revenue, would you say that ZNGA stock is a top growth stock to buy and hold for the long run?</p><p>Teladoc Health</p><p>The last growth stock to watch on this list is Teladoc Health. No doubt, Teladoc did indeed benefit immensely from the pandemic. This came as no surprise seeing that the company’s plethora of telehealth services remain a vital service during the pandemic. Considering it has shed around 50% of its value since peaking in February, many investors are seeing this as an opportunity to buy TDOC stock at great discounts. Teladoc Health reported its first-quarter financials on April 28. In it, it raised full-year guidance as first-quarter revenue came in 151% higher year-over-year to a record $453.7 million.</p><p>One reason why investors are bullish is that Teladoc is slowly creating cheaper remote alternatives to the inconvenient, inefficient health care system we have today. Also, consulting firm McKinsey &amp; Company projects that the U.S. virtual care market could approach $250 billion annually after the pandemic is over. The fact that more players are getting into telemedicine is a validation of the market potential here. Teladoc’s strategic maneuvers in the past years have cemented its position as a leader in its space. Therefore, it seems to me that TDOC stock has a potentially long growth runway ahead.</p>","source":"lsy1603171495471","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 Growth Stocks To Watch This Week</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 Growth Stocks To Watch This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-04 11:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/5-growth-stocks-to-watch-this-week-2021-06-03><strong>Nasdaq</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Check Out These 5 Top Growth Stocks In The Stock Market TodayInvesting in growth stocks can be a great way to make money in thestock market.

For many individuals, the key objective is to construct a portfolio to at least beat inflation. But I guess it’s safe to say that most would like to beat the index, generating superior returns compared to the market’s benchmark. That way, you know you are investing right.If you are looking for top growth stocks to buy, you should look for companies that could expand their top-line quickly. In general, a strong revenue growth trend may indicate that a company has excellent products that consumers can’t live without. But it’s also equally important to assess whether these companies can keep growing quickly. After all, being able to grow quickly today means nothing if it’s not sustainable over the longer term.
