But when Fridson looked at how the energy component fared over that stretch, it outperformed the ICE BofA US High Yield Index, returning 3.88% compared to negative 3.32%.\nThen, in the more protracted recovery phase, oil went from $70.61 on Sept. 30, 2009, to $96.07 on Feb. 28, 2011, while energy underperformed the index, 23.57% to 26.38%.\nAmundi's Feltus also pointed out that companies \"got religion for like six to 12 months of discipline,\" after each recent oil bust. \"This time breaks the record. But we can't let up the pressure.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":235,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":188798031,"gmtCreate":1623461183123,"gmtModify":1704204197991,"author":{"id":"3585739376669872","authorId":"3585739376669872","name":"Umikun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c0e0d9dce1242d5f276cebf681c7507","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585739376669872","authorIdStr":"3585739376669872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great read","listText":"Great read","text":"Great read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/188798031","repostId":"2142858202","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2142858202","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1623453060,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142858202?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-12 07:11","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Don't be fooled by some of the hawkish sounds coming out of the Fed next week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142858202","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Fed will remain dovish, economists say.\n\nThere are sixteen different types of hawks found in the Uni","content":"<blockquote>\n Fed will remain dovish, economists say.\n</blockquote>\n<p>There are sixteen different types of hawks found in the United States, according to birdwatchingh.com .

The agency's Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program will distribute $17 billion in an effort to support new research and manufacturing efforts in the United States.\nRare earth minerals:The Department of Interior will lead a task force to identify sites wherecritical minerals could be producedand processed in the United States.\" The report said the U.S. will develop the capacity for \"sustainable production, refining, and recycling\" of the 17 rare earth metals used in cell phones, cars and magnets, while meeting high environmental standards.\nSemiconductors:As the nation grapples witha semiconductor shortage that has idled major auto manufacturing plants, the White House said it will work with the private sector to increase supply chain transparency.\nAdvanced pharmaceutical ingredients:The Department of Health and Human Services will use authority granted under the Defense Production Act to commit approximately $60 million to \"develop novel platform technologies to increase domestic manufacturing capacity for API.\"\n\nIn addition to these steps, designed to boost supplies of specific products, the administration also announced several broader initiatives.\nTo help train the workers that will be needed to staff these new projects, the White House will announce $100 million in additional grants to support state-led apprenticeship expansion efforts. The grants will be administered by the Department of Labor.\nThe Department of Energy will announce a new policy that requires awardees of DOE research and development grants to \"substantially manufacture those products in the United States.\"\nAlong with these efforts to bolster domestic supply chains, the Biden administration will also announce new steps to combat \"unfair foreign trade practices,\" which it says have contributed to the erosion of supply chains around the world.\nOne of these will be the creation of a \"trade strike force\" led by the U.S. Trade Representative's office. The strike force will aim to identify \"unilateral and multilateral\" enforcement actions the United States can take to punish countries that it believes are engaging in unfair trade practices. According to a senior administration official, the strike force will focus on developing U.S.-China trade policies.\nThe other enforcement-related action will be an evaluation, led by the Department of Commerce, of whether to initiate an investigation into neodymium magnets under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act.\nThe rare earth magnets are used in motors and electronics by both civilians and the military. If the investigation were to conclude that U.S. national security is threatened by foreign supplies of neodymium, it could open the door to import restrictions or tariffs.\nBiden's predecessor, Donald Trump, invoked Section 232 twice during his one term as president, citing it as his justification for imposing broad steel and aluminum tariffs. Those tariffs are still in place, and Biden has not said whether he will lift them or not.\nA senior administration official who briefed reporters emphasized that Biden's trade policy actions are fundamentally different from Trump's trade wars, because they are carefully targeted.\n\"We're not looking to wage trade wars with our allies and partners,\" said the official. \"We're looking at very targeted products where we think there are effective tools we could deploy to strengthen our own supply chains and reduce vulnerabilities.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":483,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111395079,"gmtCreate":1622651619591,"gmtModify":1704188228011,"author":{"id":"3585739376669872","authorId":"3585739376669872","name":"Umikun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c0e0d9dce1242d5f276cebf681c7507","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585739376669872","authorIdStr":"3585739376669872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"That’s is great news!","listText":"That’s is great news!","text":"That’s is great news!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/111395079","repostId":"1188552613","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1188552613","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622627641,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1188552613?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-02 17:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AMC Stock Is Surging Again.

Such names look and feel like they offer you more bang for your investment buck as long as you can jump in while prices are low. All too often we learn these names are cheap for a reason, and end up staying cheap due to a lack of performance.</p>\n<p>With this as the backdrop, here's look at three low-cost stocks that aren't at risk of falling into that trap. That is, they're priced at relatively low valuations, but these valuations don't fully or fairly indicate the likely growth that lies ahead for the underlying organizations. You just have to look more than a year down the road to see it.</p>\n<h2>Ford Motor</h2>\n<p>Granted, <b>Ford Motor </b>(NYSE:F) was much more of a bargain just a few days ago, before it jumped 16% on updated electric vehicle plans. The company now anticipates that by 2030, 40% of its global unit sales will be electric cars and trucks. Even so, priced at just nine times next year's expected earnings, Ford shares have lots of room to keep running.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F628737%2Fsale.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>It's curious. Those investors keeping tabs on the carmaker probably remember when then-Ford chief executive Jim Hackett boldly (and quite publicly) jumped into EV waters back in 2017, earmarking $11 billion worth of electric vehicle capital in 2018, to be deployed by 2022. Just last week current CEO Jim Farley recently ramped-up Ford's EV development budget to $30 billion. It's exciting stuff to be sure, but not terribly surprising -- the venture was always going to require more money.</p>\n<p>What's arguably changed is investors' <i>receptiveness</i> to the idea that any car manufacturer besides <b>Tesla</b> (NASDAQ:TSLA) could be a serious electric vehicle contender. Ford's all-electric Mustang Mach-E started this psychological shift, selling 6,614 units in the United States during the first quarter of the year, which -- notably -- stole market share from Tesla. The company also reports 70,000 purchase reservations for the new, all-electric F150 pickup truck unveiled just last week, underscoring the idea that Ford's becoming a force within the electric vehicle market.</p>\n<p>And well it should. Deloitte estimates global unit sales of electric vehicles will grow at an annual pace of 29% over the course of the coming 10 years, reaching a yearly pace of 31.1 million automobiles by 2030. The world's going to need more than <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> manufacturer to make that happen.</p>\n<h2>Goldman Sachs</h2>\n<p>The <b>Goldman Sachs</b> (NYSE:GS) name may not turn heads the way it used to. But, this Wall Street icon is still a stock worth owning, which you can for little more than a song.</p>\n<p>Goldman does a little of everything, from investment banking to asset management to brokerage, and more. It's even moving into the consumer/retail banking world under the moniker Marcus. No single arm accounts for more than 26% of its top line (that's asset management), and while all of its business lines are ultimately tethered to the economy, managing five different arms curbs a great deal of the earnings volatility its competitors may face. The trade-off of this much revenue diversification is a cap on growth potential. One or two units might perform well in any given quarter, but it's rare for all five to thrive simultaneously.</p>\n<p>It's worth it though, particularly right now.</p>\n<p>With an end to the pandemic in sight in some countries and the global economy on a surprisingly good footing at it happens, Goldman is ready for whatever the rebound throws at it. Take investment banking as an example. Despite the disruption created by the COVID-19 contagion, the company says its investment banking backlog now stands at record-breaking levels. Making that detail even more incredible is that mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A) activity is expected to swell in the foreseeable future, building on the M&amp;A rebound that started to take shape in the latter half of last year. For perspective, a recent survey of corporate officers performed by Bain &amp; Co. suggests mergers and acquisitions will drive 45% of corporate revenue growth in the foreseeable future, up from an average of 30% for the past three years.</p>\n<p>Newcomers can plug into Goldman's prospective piece of this growth at a very affordable forward-looking price-to-earnings ratio of 10.4.</p>\n<h2>The Boeing Company</h2>\n<p>Finally, add<b> Boeing</b> (NYSE:BA) to your list of bargain stocks to think about buying today.</p>\n<p>Yes, Boeing is the company that botched the design of its highly touted 737 MAX passenger jets. This is also the same Boeing that's seen demand for planes dry up since COVID-19 took hold, restricting air travel as a result; airlines aren't interested in purchasing new aircraft until they're sure they're going to need them. This is even the same Boeing that's now $62 billion in debt, more than $40 billion of which has been added just within the past year.&nbsp; A stock's only a bargain if it's got a legitimate shot at rising, and priced at 47 times next year's projected profits, and given how much of its future earnings will be needed just to make interest payments, Boeing is pushing the limits of what could be considered a \"bargain.\"</p>\n<p>Look <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>, two, and even three years down the road, though. Largely lost in the recent noise is that Boeing <i>is</i> in the process of digging its way out of this hole.</p>\n<p>As for the 737 MAX, customers are finally committing to the now-fixed jet again. <b>Southwest Airlines</b> (NYSE:LUV) recently ordered 100 of the newest iteration of the passenger jet, though CEO Gary Kelly recently explained that the addition of Southwest routes could spur the need for as many as 500 new passenger jets. SMBC Aviation, <b>Alaska Air Group</b>, Dubai Aerospace, and <b>United Airlines</b> also account for just some of the 307 orders for the 737 MAX already placed just this year. It's an encouraging indication of confidence in Boeing's fix for the once-beleaguered plane.</p>\n<p>This demand is also a vote of confidence in air travel's rebound, as is the fact that Boeing is still sitting on a total of nearly 5,000 unfilled plane orders. To this end, although the International Air Transport Association (IATA) acknowledges it could take until 2023 and even 2024 for air travel to bounce back from the 52% of pre-COVID traffic we're seeing now, the IATA foresees a recovery to 88% of pre-COVID traffic taking shape next year. Airlines, however, can't wait until that many customers are ready to fly again to start procuring planes.</p>\n<p>Boeing shares are well up from last March's lows. With shares trading for 30% lower than 2019's typical price though, investors continue to underestimate the scope and speed of the company's recovery. In more normal years like 2017 or 2018, this aircraft maker can earn on the order of $10 billion, giving the company plenty of means to work on its debt and still reinvest in future growth.</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 Bargain Stocks You Can Buy Today</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 Bargain Stocks You Can Buy Today\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-02 22:35 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/02/3-bargain-stocks-you-can-buy-today/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Has a seemingly cheap stock caught your eye?

Such names look and feel like they offer you more bang for your investment buck as long as you can jump in while prices are low. All too often we learn these names are cheap for a reason, and end up staying cheap due to a lack of performance.\nWith this as the backdrop, here's look at three low-cost stocks that aren't at risk of falling into that trap. That is, they're priced at relatively low valuations, but these valuations don't fully or fairly indicate the likely growth that lies ahead for the underlying organizations. You just have to look more than a year down the road to see it.\nFord Motor\nGranted, Ford Motor (NYSE:F) was much more of a bargain just a few days ago, before it jumped 16% on updated electric vehicle plans. The company now anticipates that by 2030, 40% of its global unit sales will be electric cars and trucks. Even so, priced at just nine times next year's expected earnings, Ford shares have lots of room to keep running.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nIt's curious. Those investors keeping tabs on the carmaker probably remember when then-Ford chief executive Jim Hackett boldly (and quite publicly) jumped into EV waters back in 2017, earmarking $11 billion worth of electric vehicle capital in 2018, to be deployed by 2022. Just last week current CEO Jim Farley recently ramped-up Ford's EV development budget to $30 billion. It's exciting stuff to be sure, but not terribly surprising -- the venture was always going to require more money.\nWhat's arguably changed is investors' receptiveness to the idea that any car manufacturer besides Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) could be a serious electric vehicle contender. Ford's all-electric Mustang Mach-E started this psychological shift, selling 6,614 units in the United States during the first quarter of the year, which -- notably -- stole market share from Tesla. The company also reports 70,000 purchase reservations for the new, all-electric F150 pickup truck unveiled just last week, underscoring the idea that Ford's becoming a force within the electric vehicle market.\nAnd well it should. Deloitte estimates global unit sales of electric vehicles will grow at an annual pace of 29% over the course of the coming 10 years, reaching a yearly pace of 31.1 million automobiles by 2030. The world's going to need more than one manufacturer to make that happen.\nGoldman Sachs\nThe Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) name may not turn heads the way it used to. But, this Wall Street icon is still a stock worth owning, which you can for little more than a song.\nGoldman does a little of everything, from investment banking to asset management to brokerage, and more. It's even moving into the consumer/retail banking world under the moniker Marcus. No single arm accounts for more than 26% of its top line (that's asset management), and while all of its business lines are ultimately tethered to the economy, managing five different arms curbs a great deal of the earnings volatility its competitors may face. The trade-off of this much revenue diversification is a cap on growth potential. One or two units might perform well in any given quarter, but it's rare for all five to thrive simultaneously.\nIt's worth it though, particularly right now.\nWith an end to the pandemic in sight in some countries and the global economy on a surprisingly good footing at it happens, Goldman is ready for whatever the rebound throws at it. Take investment banking as an example. Despite the disruption created by the COVID-19 contagion, the company says its investment banking backlog now stands at record-breaking levels. Making that detail even more incredible is that mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity is expected to swell in the foreseeable future, building on the M&A rebound that started to take shape in the latter half of last year. For perspective, a recent survey of corporate officers performed by Bain & Co. suggests mergers and acquisitions will drive 45% of corporate revenue growth in the foreseeable future, up from an average of 30% for the past three years.\nNewcomers can plug into Goldman's prospective piece of this growth at a very affordable forward-looking price-to-earnings ratio of 10.4.\nThe Boeing Company\nFinally, add Boeing (NYSE:BA) to your list of bargain stocks to think about buying today.\nYes, Boeing is the company that botched the design of its highly touted 737 MAX passenger jets. This is also the same Boeing that's seen demand for planes dry up since COVID-19 took hold, restricting air travel as a result; airlines aren't interested in purchasing new aircraft until they're sure they're going to need them. This is even the same Boeing that's now $62 billion in debt, more than $40 billion of which has been added just within the past year.  A stock's only a bargain if it's got a legitimate shot at rising, and priced at 47 times next year's projected profits, and given how much of its future earnings will be needed just to make interest payments, Boeing is pushing the limits of what could be considered a \"bargain.\"\nLook one, two, and even three years down the road, though. Largely lost in the recent noise is that Boeing is in the process of digging its way out of this hole.\nAs for the 737 MAX, customers are finally committing to the now-fixed jet again. Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV) recently ordered 100 of the newest iteration of the passenger jet, though CEO Gary Kelly recently explained that the addition of Southwest routes could spur the need for as many as 500 new passenger jets. SMBC Aviation, Alaska Air Group, Dubai Aerospace, and United Airlines also account for just some of the 307 orders for the 737 MAX already placed just this year. It's an encouraging indication of confidence in Boeing's fix for the once-beleaguered plane.\nThis demand is also a vote of confidence in air travel's rebound, as is the fact that Boeing is still sitting on a total of nearly 5,000 unfilled plane orders. To this end, although the International Air Transport Association (IATA) acknowledges it could take until 2023 and even 2024 for air travel to bounce back from the 52% of pre-COVID traffic we're seeing now, the IATA foresees a recovery to 88% of pre-COVID traffic taking shape next year. Airlines, however, can't wait until that many customers are ready to fly again to start procuring planes.\nBoeing shares are well up from last March's lows.

How to Make Sense of the Move.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188552613","media":"Barrons","summary":"AMC Entertainment‘s skyrocketing stock price would be easy to dismiss as just meme-trade madness, th","content":"<p>AMC Entertainment‘s skyrocketing stock price would be easy to dismiss as just meme-trade madness, that social media-fueled investor frenzy that has launched the likes of&nbsp;GameStop&nbsp;and&nbsp;BlackBerry&nbsp;into speculative territory.</p>\n<p>But it’s possible that traditional investors have missed a fundamental change in the movie theater business—and it wouldn’t be the first time.</p>\n<p>Shares of AMC (ticker: AMC) surged 23% on Tuesday, closing at $32.04—just off an all-time high of $36.72 set in late May. That puts the movie-theater chain’s market capitalization at roughly $16 billion, more than 15 times what it was in 2018, a record-breaking year at the box office.&nbsp;Shares were up another 34%, to $42.92, in premarket trading Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Even if investors missed an inflection point, though, the math doesn’t add up. The reason might be that market cap isn’t the right measure. Maybe it’s enterprise value, which is essentially market cap and debt. AMC’s enterprise value is about $26 billion, compared with $6.2 billion or so at the end of 2018.</p>\n<p>AMC added debt during the pandemic as theaters in the country’s biggest cities were dark for months. And the numbers make it easy to understand why: The U.S. box office in 2020 generated about $2.1 billion in ticket sales, down 81% from the 2018 record of $11.9 billion.</p>\n<p>So, it seems investors have been vexed by movie theater economics. But it wouldn’t be the first time. The industry essentially went belly up at the turn of the millennium. Regal Cinemas, for instance, declared bankruptcy in 2001.</p>\n<p>Back then, the industry had plenty of capacity because of a new theater design—stadium seating that gave a better view of the screen. That shift meant movie theater chains had to renovate or risk losing all their patrons to movie theaters that offered the better view. In the end, too many seats and not enough patrons meant the return on the stadium-seating investments never materialized.</p>\n<p>The upshot was consolidation. With fewer operators, the number of screens stabilized. Between 2002 and 2007, Regal Cinemas became a cash-generating machine because the stock was mispriced. The stock returned 21% a year on average. The S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both returned less than 9% a year on average over the same period.</p>\n<p>In those days, Regal Cinema’s enterprise value about $5 billion, or about 50% of total U.S. box office sales. That’s far short of AMC today. Something new has to be different for AMC to be worth it.</p>\n<p>Maybe the movie theater business is going to go through another period of consolidation, which can usher in another golden age of returns. AMC’s Tuesday gains, in fact, were catalyzed by new capital raised so the company could go on the offensive, acquiring defunct chains. Monopolies, after all, can be good for stock returns.</p>\n<p>If AMC can increase market share and the U.S. box office sales can return to 2018 levels in a few years, total sales at might be $9 billion—$6 billion from tickets and $3 billion from concessions. Sales in 2018 amounted to $5.5 billion.</p>\n<p>Then, with better gross profit margins derived from larger scale, AMC might be able to generate $600 million in free cash flow annually, which puts the stock at about a 4% free cash flow yield. The S&amp;P 500 trades for about a 3% free cash flow yield. The numbers can work—if they’re stretched.</p>\n<p>There are problems with this scenario, though. There are lots of ifs and mights—and AMC has never generated cash flow like that in the past. Arriving at $600 million in free cash flow is more about justifying current valuations than predicting what is likely.</p>\n<p>Also, with mergers and acquisitions, AMC market shares might rise, but there are still competitors. Regal Cinemas is still out there, owned by Cineworld Holdings (CINE. London). So is Cinemark (CNK). There’s not a true monopoly.</p>\n<p>AMC and its peers have to deal with streaming, too. Windows for exclusive theater showings are shrinking. The pandemic has accelerated that. And if AMC gets too large and demanding for movie makers, the talent can always go to streaming faster, hurting box office sales.</p>\n<p>There is also the problem of the peer stocks. They aren’t trading like this is a brave new world for theaters. Cineworld stock is up 484% from its 52-week low, but shares are still off 72% from all-time highs. Cinemark shares are up 222% from their 52-week low. They are down 47% from their all-time high.</p>\n<p>AMC stock, again, is up almost 1,600% from its 52-week low and is down just 13% from its May all-time high.</p>\n<p>Wall Street just doesn’t see the potential either. Nine analysts cover the stock. The average analyst price target is about $5. Before the pandemic, the average analyst price target was $15. But there were fewer shares back then.

That puts the movie-theater chain’s market capitalization at roughly $16 billion, more than 15 times what it was in 2018, a record-breaking year at the box office. Shares were up another 34%, to $42.92, in premarket trading Wednesday.\nEven if investors missed an inflection point, though, the math doesn’t add up. The reason might be that market cap isn’t the right measure. Maybe it’s enterprise value, which is essentially market cap and debt. AMC’s enterprise value is about $26 billion, compared with $6.2 billion or so at the end of 2018.\nAMC added debt during the pandemic as theaters in the country’s biggest cities were dark for months. And the numbers make it easy to understand why: The U.S. box office in 2020 generated about $2.1 billion in ticket sales, down 81% from the 2018 record of $11.9 billion.\nSo, it seems investors have been vexed by movie theater economics. But it wouldn’t be the first time. The industry essentially went belly up at the turn of the millennium. Regal Cinemas, for instance, declared bankruptcy in 2001.\nBack then, the industry had plenty of capacity because of a new theater design—stadium seating that gave a better view of the screen. That shift meant movie theater chains had to renovate or risk losing all their patrons to movie theaters that offered the better view. In the end, too many seats and not enough patrons meant the return on the stadium-seating investments never materialized.\nThe upshot was consolidation. With fewer operators, the number of screens stabilized. Between 2002 and 2007, Regal Cinemas became a cash-generating machine because the stock was mispriced. The stock returned 21% a year on average. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both returned less than 9% a year on average over the same period.\nIn those days, Regal Cinema’s enterprise value about $5 billion, or about 50% of total U.S. box office sales. That’s far short of AMC today. Something new has to be different for AMC to be worth it.\nMaybe the movie theater business is going to go through another period of consolidation, which can usher in another golden age of returns. AMC’s Tuesday gains, in fact, were catalyzed by new capital raised so the company could go on the offensive, acquiring defunct chains. Monopolies, after all, can be good for stock returns.\nIf AMC can increase market share and the U.S. box office sales can return to 2018 levels in a few years, total sales at might be $9 billion—$6 billion from tickets and $3 billion from concessions. Sales in 2018 amounted to $5.5 billion.\nThen, with better gross profit margins derived from larger scale, AMC might be able to generate $600 million in free cash flow annually, which puts the stock at about a 4% free cash flow yield. The S&P 500 trades for about a 3% free cash flow yield. The numbers can work—if they’re stretched.\nThere are problems with this scenario, though. There are lots of ifs and mights—and AMC has never generated cash flow like that in the past. Arriving at $600 million in free cash flow is more about justifying current valuations than predicting what is likely.\nAlso, with mergers and acquisitions, AMC market shares might rise, but there are still competitors. Regal Cinemas is still out there, owned by Cineworld Holdings (CINE. London). So is Cinemark (CNK). There’s not a true monopoly.\nAMC and its peers have to deal with streaming, too. Windows for exclusive theater showings are shrinking. The pandemic has accelerated that. And if AMC gets too large and demanding for movie makers, the talent can always go to streaming faster, hurting box office sales.\nThere is also the problem of the peer stocks. They aren’t trading like this is a brave new world for theaters. Cineworld stock is up 484% from its 52-week low, but shares are still off 72% from all-time highs. Cinemark shares are up 222% from their 52-week low. They are down 47% from their all-time high.\nAMC stock, again, is up almost 1,600% from its 52-week low and is down just 13% from its May all-time high.\nWall Street just doesn’t see the potential either. Nine analysts cover the stock. The average analyst price target is about $5. Before the pandemic, the average analyst price target was $15. But there were fewer shares back then. The old target enterprise value was roughly $7 billion. It’s tough to get from $7 billion to $26 billion predicting better margins.\nAnalysts do have positive free cash flow modeled, though–$13 million in 2022 and $90 million in 2023. That’s a long way from $600 million.\nAnd that’s just another way of saying that AMC bulls are a long way from making the math work.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":583,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111396293,"gmtCreate":1622651587712,"gmtModify":1704188226059,"author":{"id":"3585739376669872","authorId":"3585739376669872","name":"Umikun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c0e0d9dce1242d5f276cebf681c7507","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585739376669872","authorIdStr":"3585739376669872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"That’s shocking","listText":"That’s shocking","text":"That’s shocking","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/111396293","repostId":"1141662964","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":377,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111393198,"gmtCreate":1622651513214,"gmtModify":1704188221995,"author":{"id":"3585739376669872","authorId":"3585739376669872","name":"Umikun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c0e0d9dce1242d5f276cebf681c7507","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585739376669872","authorIdStr":"3585739376669872"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Power","listText":"Power","text":"Power","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/111393198","repostId":"2140417257","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2140417257","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1622644249,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2140417257?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-02 22:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Big Tech Is More Important Than Ever With Alphabet Even Reaching New Horizons","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2140417257","media":"IAM Newswire","summary":"With the latest earnings, it became clear that the pandemic push was just the beginning for Big Tech as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Google owner Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG), Amazon (NASDAQ: ","content":"<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c65aa5ceb42bc43bfde5fca646000095\" tg-width=\"1120\" tg-height=\"633\"></p>\n<p>With the latest earnings, it became clear that the pandemic push was just the beginning for Big Tech as Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Google owner <b>Alphabet </b>(NASDAQ:GOOG), <b>Amazon </b>(NASDAQ:AMZN), <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> </b>(NASDAQ:FB), and <b>Microsoft </b>(NASDAQ:MSFT) were showered with money during first quarter, so much that even Wall Street that expected strong results was surprised.
