From e-commerce platforms to home improvement stores to furniture and housewares merchants, many of the top performers have fit this flavor.</p>\n<p>Take the broad-based Vanguard Consumer Discretionary Index Fund ETF VCR, +0.66% that surged more than 90% from March 2020 to March 2021. That was thanks to components like home improvement stocks Lowe’s LOW, -0.30% and Home Depot HD, -0.33% alongside retailers like TJX TJX, -0.08%.</p>\n<p>Lately, however, performance has started to lag for many of these names. In fact, since April 1 we’ve seen these three stocks all drift slightly into the red even as the S&amp;P 500 SPX, -0.11% has tacked on about 6% in the same period.</p>\n<p>And some fear that may only be the beginning. As one Wall Street insider said recently in a Bloomberg interview, a “huge unwind” is coming for stay-at-home stocks, including hardware stores and home-goods merchants.</p>\n<p>While some big-name “suburbia” trades are still relatively stable, signs of trouble are already emerging at the fringes. Century Communities CCS, -0.34% and Dream Finders Homes DFH, -2.55%, two mid-tier single family homebuilders, have seen shares crash by double digits over the last month. On the furnishings side, appliance giant Whirlpool Corporation WHR, -0.51% and department store Nordstrom JWN, +2.03% are down sharply from their spring highs.</p>\n<p><b>Here are five big reasons why:</b></p>\n<p><b>1.</b>&nbsp;<b>The upgrade cycle is over</b></p>\n<p>Last summer, white-collar workers who were stuck at home made note of overdue projects and took advantage of being able to easily meet with contractors. But in many ways, this growth is not sustainable.</p>\n<p>Consider the kind of purchases homeowners were making according to data from the NPD Group. Faucets, kitchen cabinets and even toilets were among the most popular products sold in 2020. Needless to say, even the most profligate homeowners aren’t going to follow this upgrade cycle of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms on an annual basis.</p>\n<p>The same is true for furniture and other home goods. Internet giant Comscore recorded the highest visitation to related websites in history in May 2020 with 133 million web surfers shopping for some kind of home goods. Once again, a new couch or lamp is not an annual purchase — so this trend seems unsustainable for much longer.</p>\n<p><b>2.&nbsp;Valuations are stretched</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of post-pandemic peaks for home-goods purveyors, we’ve seen the financials bear out these big increases via boosted profits and sales. However, we’ve also seen the stock of many related merchants surge even more — stretching their valuations from historical norms.</p>\n<p>Take TJX. Currently this discount retailer has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of more than 26, compared with a forward P/E of just 21 in spring 2020. Its trailing price-to-sales ratio is now 2.1 compared with 1.4.</p>\n<p>What’s more, valuations for previous darlings like TJX are out of line with peers, too. Consider the forward P/E of the overall S&amp;P 500 index is 22 right now, and other similar names like Macy’s M, +0.70% and Big Lots BIG, -3.71% actually have forward P/E ratios well under 10. You can argue TJX is unique, of course… but you also may want to be aware of what “fair value” looks like for many other stocks outside fashionable stay-at-home trades right now.</p>\n<p><b>3.&nbsp;Delays and shortages</b></p>\n<p>Future growth from pandemic-fueled peaks in these stocks is not impossible, of course. But given supply chain disruptions it seems highly unlikely. There are a host of reasons for these delays, including overseas shipping delays as well as capacity and output crunches that are affecting many industries, but “stay at home” stocks seem particularly hard hit.</p>\n<p>Home improvement products are simply nowhere to be found, with roughly 94% of builders reporting “at least some serious shortages of appliances” according to the National Association of Home Builders. Another 93% are running short on framing lumber and 87% say it is hard to obtain windows and doors.</p>\n<p>Even if you can get past demand concerns, without the raw materials to get to work it’s very hard to see future growth in this category.</p>\n<p><b>4.&nbsp;Inflationary pressures</b></p>\n<p>For the people who haven’t already ponied up the cash for a contractor or made their peace with extended delays for their expensive new furniture, there is a pretty big disincentive right now for new shoppers: inflation.</p>\n<p>The cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index jumped 0.6% in May to run at a 5% annual rate. That was not only higher than expectations, but the fastest pace since the summer of 2008. The inflation risks were so pronounced that the Federal Reserve publicly stated it could move up the schedule for expected interest rate increases to keep the risks under wraps.</p>\n<p>Inflation isn’t always a death knell, of course. But it has historically eroded purchasing power and could curtail some of the spending in “stay at home” stocks that we’ve seen in the last year or so.</p>\n<p><b>5.&nbsp;Home-equity hubris</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of red-hot inflation: In May, the median price for U.S. homes topped $350,000 for the first time ever — up 23.6% from 2020. What’s more, a Realtor.com survey showed roughly a third of selling homeowners expect to get more than their asking price, and roughly the same amount expect an offer within a week of listing.</p>\n<p>Some of this is justifiable. Many articles have been written in recent years about the dearth of supply in attractive markets, and it’s important to acknowledge the remote work of the pandemic has indeed created some disruptive introspection into why people live where they do.</p>\n<p>But here’s where things get dicey: homeowners who have already spent the expected premium on their home’s price well in advance. According to Freddie Mac, about $152.7 billion in equity loans were taken out on U.S. houses last year, a massive increase of 41.7% from 2019 and the highest refinancing cash-out dollar amount since 2007.</p>\n<p>Anyone remember what happened to the real-estate market in 2007? Or the similar sense of seller entitlement from those days? There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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>The ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer</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\">\nThe ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-24 18:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-shelter-in-suburbia-trade-is-about-to-reverse-and-these-stocks-will-suffer-11624457411?siteid=yhoof2><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>5 reasons the pandemic megatrend is over.\n\nOne of the biggest investment stories of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the boom in consumer discretionary stocks with a “shelter in suburbia” theme.

There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":439,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121162006,"gmtCreate":1624456914305,"gmtModify":1703837292209,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121162006","repostId":"1145825451","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1145825451","pubTimestamp":1624433586,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1145825451?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 15:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1145825451","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.Super fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc. model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.The go","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Super fans of the latest and greatest high-end<b>Tesla, Inc.</b>(NASDAQ:<b>TSLA</b>) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b294a3604c7ba82bd19b3c70be3a4020\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Musk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”</p>\n<p>The Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about&nbsp;<b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”</p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year.

Clean energy stocks are down roughly 20% this year on an absolute basis, while energy, commodities, defense and tobacco stocks have all outperformed. This sharp contrast comes despite flows into ESG funds continuing at a record pace.\nRising prices will likely continue to pose a significant challenge for ESG funds in particular, Bernstein said, but added that there are a number of ways for these investors to lower their risk exposure.\nIn a note published June 10, Bernstein screened for ESG stocks in the U.S., Europe and Asia that are best positioned for rising inflation.\nBernstein screened for the stocks by considering three ways that sustainable investors could brace for a rising inflationary environment:\n1. Seeking out high-scoring ESG stocks that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.\n2. Investing in high-scoring ESG stocks which have robust pricing power.\n3. Identifying companies that have increased exposure to the energy, commodities and financials sectors.\nIn considering stocks that should be in an ESG portfolio, Bernstein recognized that investors may struggle to prioritize so-called “sin” stocks, such as energy and commodity companies, although these “value” stocks usually perform well when inflation and bond yields rise. Value stocks are seen as being underappreciated by the market.\nBernstein also highlighted that financials tend to be left on the sidelines by ESG investors, since measuring their environmental credentials can be tricky.\nU.S.\nThe analysts said that U.S. ESG funds are “not that well positioned” for inflation because they tend to be underweight on so-called value stocks. The bank did, however, single outState Street,LearandBank of New York Mellonamong its top picks of those positively exposed to rising bond yields. The three U.S. firms were found to score in the top quintile on “environment,” according to data from Sustainalytics, and had a positive correlation with U.S. 10-year bond yields over the past 12 months.\nHome Depot,Adobe,PepsiCo were named by Bernstein as being among the stocks with the highest pricing power and ESG scores.\nEurope\nESG funds in Europe were found to be particularly exposed to rising inflation and the bank said tighter constraints and regulations on sustainability made lowering inflation risk more difficult than in other regions.\nNonetheless,ING,EniandTotalEnergieswere picked out among the region’s high-scoring ESG stocks within industries that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.Neste,Norsk HydroandKingfisherwere all cited as top picks when it comes to strong pricing power and high ESG scores, the analysts at Bernstein said.\nAsia\nAsian ESG funds are better positioned than their counterparts in the U.S. and Europe, the bank said. This is likely to reflect the fact that ESG investing is still in an early stage in the region and many investors are predominantly focused on environmental issues rather than fully integrating social and governance considerations, the bank said.\nAmong the bank’s high-scoring “improver” stocks in the region that are positively exposed to rising U.S. bond yields areMelco Resorts,Trip.comandAdani Ports and Special Economic Zone.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":120029462,"gmtCreate":1624288970656,"gmtModify":1703832650623,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/120029462","repostId":"2145084835","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145084835","pubTimestamp":1624280460,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2145084835?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 21:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Ultra-Popular Stocks Wall Street Views as Overvalued","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145084835","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"If analysts are correct, these high-flying stocks will fizzle out over the next year.","content":"<p>Generally speaking, it pays to be bullish on Wall Street. Despite navigating its way through Black Monday in 1987, the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and more recently the coronavirus crash, the average annual total return for the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> since 1980, including dividends, is north of 11%.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, we see this optimism readily apparent in Wall Street's ratings on stocks. According to <b>FactSet</b>, more than half of all stocks carry a consensus buy rating, 38% have the equivalent of a hold rating, and just 7% are rated as sells. Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.</p>\n<p>Based on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b04ade705354c4825038c4dfcd0187d9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Palantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%</h3>\n<p>Since its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.</p>\n<p>The likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.</p>\n<p>Another possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a38605bee8e62f3e8aa414fa24278e7e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Moderna: Implied downside of 11%</h3>\n<p>Biotech stock <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.</p>\n<p>Why the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.</p>\n<p>The other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.</p>\n<p>Based solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07841e6a8173146a0fbfddf95a0f1ccb\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>GameStop: Implied downside of 71%</h3>\n<p>This will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it <i>still</i> implies up to 71% downside over the next year.</p>\n<p>The biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.</p>\n<p>Although the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.</p>\n<p>With sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7ff785aa0040a5565d474390f58b47a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"457\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Ocugen: Implied downside of 18%</h3>\n<p>Volatile clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Ocugen</b> (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.</p>\n<p>Arguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.</p>\n<p>What's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.</p>\n<p>Though it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91f6037829ea3fb0ae1cae0b95d8d11e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>NVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%</h3>\n<p>Don't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says <b>NVIDIA</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.</p>\n<p>One reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade.

Despite navigating its way through Black Monday in 1987, the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and more recently the coronavirus crash, the average annual total return for the benchmark S&P 500 since 1980, including dividends, is north of 11%.\nNot surprisingly, we see this optimism readily apparent in Wall Street's ratings on stocks. According to FactSet, more than half of all stocks carry a consensus buy rating, 38% have the equivalent of a hold rating, and just 7% are rated as sells. Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.\nBased on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPalantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%\nSince its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's one-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.\nThe likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.\nAnother possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.\nOver the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nModerna: Implied downside of 11%\nBiotech stock Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's one of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.\nWhy the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.\nThe other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.\nBased solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nGameStop: Implied downside of 71%\nThis will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite GameStop (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it still implies up to 71% downside over the next year.\nThe biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.\nAlthough the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.\nWith sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nOcugen: Implied downside of 18%\nVolatile clinical-stage biotech stock Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.\nArguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.\nWhat's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.\nThough it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%\nDon't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.\nOne reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.\nPerhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade. If another lull strikes, a fast-growing ancillary segment for NVIDA could easily become a drag.\nFor what it's worth, I see no fundamental reasons to sell NVIDIA if you're already a long-term shareholder. But if you're on the outside looking in, I don't exactly see $746 as an attractive entry point, either.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":107,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":162638526,"gmtCreate":1624060602065,"gmtModify":1703827743273,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/162638526","repostId":"1148576248","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1148576248","pubTimestamp":1623979883,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1148576248?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 09:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NIO Is Winning","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1148576248","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"NIO is #1 in China's electric SUV market for good reason.The company's success is driven by its brilliant innovations and marketing strategy.NIO is growing faster than Tesla, and yet, it is trading at a discount.NIO Inc.  stands out for its strong market position- #1 market share in electric SUV in China- and innovation in the rapidly growing and highly competitive electric vehicle industry.

(NYSE:NIO) stands out for its strong market position- #1 market share in electric SUV in China- and innovation in the rapidly growing and highly competitive electric vehicle industry. This article will discuss why NIO is winning against some stiff competition, including against Tesla (TSLA).</p>\n<p>In addition, we will discuss NIO's business, financials, trading, valuation, and risks so readers could reach their own informed decision.</p>\n<p><b>Business: Why NIO Wins</b></p>\n<p>NIO positions itself in the premium SUV segment, focusing on smart EVs with a differentiated battery strategy.</p>\n<p>Delivered in March 2019, the company's first model, the ES8, is a luxury 7-seater SUV that is still the company's flagship product today. The ES8 is equipped with ADAS and AI system [NOMI] and is comparable to the BYD Song, Tesla Model X, the Audi Q7 45 e-Tron, etc.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443e2773f70c00c6faac8ca063e978a5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Company</span></p>\n<p>Leveraging the installed base and customer goodwill due to the highly successful ES8, NIO successfully launched the ES6 and EC6.Recently, the company launched the ET7, its first sedan.</p>\n<p>Today, NIO is the top-selling brand in China's all-electric SUV market in April with a 23% market share, higher than Tesla's 17%, WM Motor and XPeng Motors'(NYSE:XPEV)7%, according to China Automotive Technology and Research Center data.</p>\n<p>One of the biggest competitive differentiators is NIO'sbattery strategy, which all but eliminates range anxiety, one of the biggest barriers to mass EV adoption. Not only could NIO cars be charged at any charging station for EVs, but the company also built hundreds of battery swapping stations in key cities in China, with plans to expanding to Europe.</p>\n<p>NIO's battery swapping strategy also gives the company the ability to offer a battery-as-a-service [BaaS] solution, which reduces the upfrontcostof purchasing an NIO vehicle by ~$11,000. Since cost is another major barrier to mass EV adoption, NIO's battery strategy appears brilliant as it solves both the range and cost problems.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b25fbb85bffd39310cd27cbb2bde57a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"216\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Company</span></p>\n<p>Another differentiator is the NIO brand, which management created brilliantly by introducing the EP9 in 2016. Six EP9s have been sold to NIO investors for 2.5 million pounds, creating an aura of exclusivity and quality around the brand. Next, NIO targeted the mass-market luxury SUV segment with the ES8, firmly establishing the company as a luxury car OEM.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ad41c960ce02f1e3f3e7575ac00beee0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"350\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Company</span></p>\n<p>Chinese companies must struggle against the common perception that they make low-quality products. This is the same perception issue that Japanese companies faced following their defeat after WW2. Japan solved this problem by moving up the value chain as their economy matured and creating high-quality brands such as Sony(NYSE:SONY). Today, Japan is known for its craftsmanship.</p>\n<p>China is following the same trajectory, and NIO is one of the emerging brands destroying the perception that \"made in China\" equates to poor quality. I strongly believe that investors who stubbornly hold on to that old perception will miss out on investing in some of the greatest brands the world will ever see.</p>\n<p>Buying an NIO car means much more than just getting a vehicle; it means getting into an exclusive club of services and convenience. Benefits include access to hundreds of swapping stations, lifetime free roadside rescue (including charge vans), lifetime free cellular connectivity, lifetime free warranty, and excellent customer service. This is a powerful selling point for NIO, differentiating it from Tesla, which hasrecentlydeveloped a poor reputation on the customer service front in China.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a73482aa0431694b760ab5c2d0aa6f53\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"211\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Company</span></p>\n<p>The company is pushing the envelope even further with&nbsp;NIO House, a literal clubhouse for customers, and&nbsp;NIO Life, which includes NIO branded lifestyle products. NIO's effort to build a lifestyle around its cars seems to be&nbsp;working. This is good news for investors because the only way to escape the competitive battlefield of automobile OEM is to sell services and lifestyles to customers. This is why Ferrari's (RACE) operating margin is well over 20%, while Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) are in the single digits.</p>\n<p><b>Financials &amp; Valuation</b></p>\n<p>NIO is in hyper-growth mode. In 2020, the company generated $2.5 billion in revenue, up 126% y/y. In 2021, the company is expected to grow 117% y/y to $5.4 billion.</p>\n<p>The company is not yet profitable but is expected to be by 2022. Gross margin only turned positive in 2020 and is expected to be 19.3% in 2021. EBITDA is expected to be negative $258 million in 2021 and a positive $206 million in 2022. Free cash flow is expected to be negative $42 million in 2021 before turning to a positive $354 million in 2022.</p>\n<p>However, despite the cash burn expected in 2021, investors should feel at ease since the company exited&nbsp;2020&nbsp;with $5.9 billion of cash and cash equivalents. Including $600 million in short-term investments and subtracting ~$2.1 billion in debt and operating leases and the expected negative free cash flow in 2021, NIO should exit 2021 with over $4 billion in net cash and investments. That is plenty of buffers since NIO is expected to generate positive free cash flow in 2022.</p>\n<p>Since NIO is not yet profitable, we will look at the forward EV/Sales multiple as is typical for hyper-growth companies not yet generating a profit. The company went public in September 2018, trading at around 7 to 8 times EV/Sales, before bottoming out at around 0.7 times sales in May 2019. The market, however, caught the EV fever in April 2020 and sent NIO's valuation soaring to a peak of 14.6x by January 2021. After the growth sell-off we recently experienced, NIO is currently sitting at a much more reasonable 8 times forward sales. This is a significant discount to TSLA's 10.2 times forward EV/Sales despite growing twice as fast (TSLA is expected to grow revenues by 57% in 2021 compared to NIO's 117%).</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>There are many risks associated with owning NIO.</p>\n<p>Although its battery swapping strategy is highly differentiated and seems to be growing rapidly, the jury is still out on the ultimate market share of battery swapping or fast-charging infrastructure. If fast charging technology continues to advance significantly, it will likely erode a key advantage of battery swapping: speed.</p>\n<p>NIO's business model is innovative and new. Unfortunately, the flip side of that is that it is untested, and NIO remains unprofitable. For many investors, NIO will remain a \"show me\" story until the profitability of its business model improves.</p>\n<p>NIO's ability to expand globally may be limited by the rising geopolitical tension between China and the US, and to a lesser extent, with Japan and Europe. The geopolitical situation remains highly opaque and uncertain, and is a risk factor for all auto OEMs.</p>\n<p>Auto OEMs are currently facing a severe chip&nbsp;shortage.

(NYSE:NIO) stands out for its strong market position- #1 market share in electric SUV in China- and innovation in the rapidly growing and highly competitive electric vehicle industry. This article will discuss why NIO is winning against some stiff competition, including against Tesla (TSLA).\nIn addition, we will discuss NIO's business, financials, trading, valuation, and risks so readers could reach their own informed decision.\nBusiness: Why NIO Wins\nNIO positions itself in the premium SUV segment, focusing on smart EVs with a differentiated battery strategy.\nDelivered in March 2019, the company's first model, the ES8, is a luxury 7-seater SUV that is still the company's flagship product today. The ES8 is equipped with ADAS and AI system [NOMI] and is comparable to the BYD Song, Tesla Model X, the Audi Q7 45 e-Tron, etc.\nSource: Company\nLeveraging the installed base and customer goodwill due to the highly successful ES8, NIO successfully launched the ES6 and EC6.Recently, the company launched the ET7, its first sedan.\nToday, NIO is the top-selling brand in China's all-electric SUV market in April with a 23% market share, higher than Tesla's 17%, WM Motor and XPeng Motors'(NYSE:XPEV)7%, according to China Automotive Technology and Research Center data.\nOne of the biggest competitive differentiators is NIO'sbattery strategy, which all but eliminates range anxiety, one of the biggest barriers to mass EV adoption. Not only could NIO cars be charged at any charging station for EVs, but the company also built hundreds of battery swapping stations in key cities in China, with plans to expanding to Europe.\nNIO's battery swapping strategy also gives the company the ability to offer a battery-as-a-service [BaaS] solution, which reduces the upfrontcostof purchasing an NIO vehicle by ~$11,000. Since cost is another major barrier to mass EV adoption, NIO's battery strategy appears brilliant as it solves both the range and cost problems.\nSource: Company\nAnother differentiator is the NIO brand, which management created brilliantly by introducing the EP9 in 2016. Six EP9s have been sold to NIO investors for 2.5 million pounds, creating an aura of exclusivity and quality around the brand. Next, NIO targeted the mass-market luxury SUV segment with the ES8, firmly establishing the company as a luxury car OEM.\nSource: Company\nChinese companies must struggle against the common perception that they make low-quality products. This is the same perception issue that Japanese companies faced following their defeat after WW2. Japan solved this problem by moving up the value chain as their economy matured and creating high-quality brands such as Sony(NYSE:SONY). Today, Japan is known for its craftsmanship.\nChina is following the same trajectory, and NIO is one of the emerging brands destroying the perception that \"made in China\" equates to poor quality. I strongly believe that investors who stubbornly hold on to that old perception will miss out on investing in some of the greatest brands the world will ever see.\nBuying an NIO car means much more than just getting a vehicle; it means getting into an exclusive club of services and convenience. Benefits include access to hundreds of swapping stations, lifetime free roadside rescue (including charge vans), lifetime free cellular connectivity, lifetime free warranty, and excellent customer service. This is a powerful selling point for NIO, differentiating it from Tesla, which hasrecentlydeveloped a poor reputation on the customer service front in China.\nSource: Company\nThe company is pushing the envelope even further with NIO House, a literal clubhouse for customers, and NIO Life, which includes NIO branded lifestyle products. NIO's effort to build a lifestyle around its cars seems to be working. This is good news for investors because the only way to escape the competitive battlefield of automobile OEM is to sell services and lifestyles to customers. This is why Ferrari's (RACE) operating margin is well over 20%, while Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) are in the single digits.\nFinancials & Valuation\nNIO is in hyper-growth mode. In 2020, the company generated $2.5 billion in revenue, up 126% y/y. In 2021, the company is expected to grow 117% y/y to $5.4 billion.\nThe company is not yet profitable but is expected to be by 2022. Gross margin only turned positive in 2020 and is expected to be 19.3% in 2021. EBITDA is expected to be negative $258 million in 2021 and a positive $206 million in 2022. Free cash flow is expected to be negative $42 million in 2021 before turning to a positive $354 million in 2022.\nHowever, despite the cash burn expected in 2021, investors should feel at ease since the company exited 2020 with $5.9 billion of cash and cash equivalents. Including $600 million in short-term investments and subtracting ~$2.1 billion in debt and operating leases and the expected negative free cash flow in 2021, NIO should exit 2021 with over $4 billion in net cash and investments. That is plenty of buffers since NIO is expected to generate positive free cash flow in 2022.\nSince NIO is not yet profitable, we will look at the forward EV/Sales multiple as is typical for hyper-growth companies not yet generating a profit. The company went public in September 2018, trading at around 7 to 8 times EV/Sales, before bottoming out at around 0.7 times sales in May 2019. The market, however, caught the EV fever in April 2020 and sent NIO's valuation soaring to a peak of 14.6x by January 2021. After the growth sell-off we recently experienced, NIO is currently sitting at a much more reasonable 8 times forward sales. This is a significant discount to TSLA's 10.2 times forward EV/Sales despite growing twice as fast (TSLA is expected to grow revenues by 57% in 2021 compared to NIO's 117%).\nRisks\nThere are many risks associated with owning NIO.\nAlthough its battery swapping strategy is highly differentiated and seems to be growing rapidly, the jury is still out on the ultimate market share of battery swapping or fast-charging infrastructure. If fast charging technology continues to advance significantly, it will likely erode a key advantage of battery swapping: speed.\nNIO's business model is innovative and new. Unfortunately, the flip side of that is that it is untested, and NIO remains unprofitable. For many investors, NIO will remain a \"show me\" story until the profitability of its business model improves.\nNIO's ability to expand globally may be limited by the rising geopolitical tension between China and the US, and to a lesser extent, with Japan and Europe. The geopolitical situation remains highly opaque and uncertain, and is a risk factor for all auto OEMs.\nAuto OEMs are currently facing a severe chip shortage. In addition, the chip density in automobiles is increasing, making the OEMs increasingly reliant on semiconductor suppliers and foundries.\nNIO's competitive advantages may not overcome the massive scale advantage of ICE OEMs and much bigger EV players like Tesla and China's BYD.\nTakeaway\nNIO's technical and business model innovations make it a highly differentiated company in the exciting and rapidly growing EV market. The company is winning, and its competitive moat is getting bigger as its ecosystem of vehicles and services grows. Relative to the industry leader, Tesla, NIO's stock price seems like a bargain given its faster growth rate and lower multiples.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":166443654,"gmtCreate":1624023741878,"gmtModify":1703826848245,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/166443654","repostId":"1118271544","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118271544","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1624023029,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118271544?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 21:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow drops 400 points at the open, extending losses in its worst week since January","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118271544","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks fell on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average on pace to post its worst week sinc","content":"<p>U.S. stocks fell on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average on pace to post its worst week since January, as bank shares led the market sell-off after the Federal Reserve's latest policy update.</p>\n<p>The blue-chip average dropped 400 points, bringing its week-to-date losses to 2.8% The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.8%, pushing its loss this week to more than 1%.

Snowflake was at the time of its IPO, a unprofitable software company, which is why it was interesting that Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) , which normally eschews investing in software or cloud companies actually wound up&nbsp;investing $735 million or 6.1 million Snowflake shares at the $120 IPO price.</p>\n<p>On September 18, 2020, CEO Frank Slootman,in an interview, disclosed that Berkshire's insurance unit has been using Snowflake's services for quite awhile and that might be part of the reason that Berkshire was comfortable enough to invest in Snowflake's stock. The Slootman interview also disclosed that Snowflake's interactions with Berkshire have been through Todd Combs, the CEO of Berkshire holding GEICO. Since Todd Combs also serves as a Berkshire investment manager, he is probably the one directly responsible for the Snowflake investment and not Buffett.</p>\n<p>Salesforce Ventures (NYSE:CRM)&nbsp;also decided to make an investment&nbsp;of more than $500 million in the company at the IPO, as a play on digital transformation and long term cloud adoption. Snowflake's stock soared in the months following its IPO, partially due to investors being interested in the fastest growing of all the fast growing digital transformation plays and partially due to Snowflake receiving the seal of approval from both Berkshire and Salesforce.</p>\n<p>Snowflake finally ended up reached an all time high of $429.00 within the December 8th market session, at which point Snowflake was selling for 245x Sales and was already being called \"The Most Highly Valued Large Cap Company in History\".</p>\n<p>Eventually, due to&nbsp;fears of rising interest rates and inflation, investors began losing enthusiasm for stocks selling at high valuations and nervous investors have since sold Snowflake's stock down to the point where it had reached all time lows of $184.71 per share on May 13. Since, then the stock has risen slightly over 30% and the question now becomes for investors, \"Is Snowflake a buy at current prices, even though, the company still sells for around 85X sales?\"</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/324a101dce1df05ccb338b782dd193d3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>This article will go through some of the reasons why many investors are still very infatuated with Snowflake and also go through recent earnings, as well as explain why I consider Snowflake a buy for very aggressive investors.</p>\n<p><b>Snowflake CEO Frank Slootman</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake was founded in July 2012 by two former Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) engineers Benoit Dageville and Thierry Cruanes, along with Marcin Żukowski, co-founder of the Dutch start-up Vectorwise. The first CEO of Snowflake was Mike Speiser, a venture capitalist at Sutter Hill Ventures. In June 2014, Snowflake appointed former Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) executive Bob Muglia as CEO, as the company emerged from stealth mode.</p>\n<p>In May 2019, the company decided to change the leadership team again to Frank Slootman, the retired former CEO of ServiceNow (NASDAQ:NOW), who joined Snowflake as its CEO and Michael Scarpelli, the former CFO of ServiceNow who joined Snowflake as CFO.</p>\n<p>In an&nbsp;article Beth Kindig wrote for Forbes&nbsp;near the date of the IPO, she indicated that the change of CEOs from Bob Muglia to Frank Slootman likely occurred because of pressure from private investors that wanted leadership from someone that had a proven track record of showing that they could grow an enterprise tech company very quickly and who also could make a successful profitable exit for investors in an IPO. Investors got that type of CEO in Frank Slootman, who has a type of \"Rockstar\" status among CEOs.</p>\n<blockquote>\n “He’s one of the most impressive, most accomplished, most respected CEOs in enterprise tech,” said Asheem Chandna, a software investor at Greylock Partners, which invested in the first two companies Slootman took public, Data Domain (later acquired by EMC and now part ofDell) and ServiceNow. “He’s a take-no-prisoners leader. He can point at a hill and inspire the entire team to follow him to take the hill.”\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:CNBC\n</blockquote>\n<p>Frank Slootman already had a rich history that involved turning around a company called Data Domain, which was detailed in his book “TAPE SUCKS: Inside Data Domain, A Silicon Valley Growth Story”. When Slootman first took over Data Domain in 2003, the company had no customers, no revenues, and was a few months away from bankruptcy. In six years, Slootman grew Data Domain to the point where it was selling more than all of its competitors combined. Slootman then successfully sold the company to EMC (NYSE:DELL) in 2009 for $2.1 billion and the&nbsp;Data Domain product line has been Dell EMC's flagship platform&nbsp;for backup, archive and disaster recovery ever since.</p>\n<p>Two years later, Slootman took over the CEO role of ServiceNow between 2011 to 2017. Part of Slootman's accomplishments at ServiceNow was guiding the company to a 2012 IPO.</p>\n<p>For individuals that think that&nbsp;the role of the CEO is essential for a company's success, Snowflake has perhaps one of the best CEOs in the tech sector and the presence of CEO Frank Slootman alone, should be reason enough to consider Snowflake as an investment.</p>\n<p><b>The Data Cloud</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake is a cloud native company that offers unlimited storage and compute in the cloud in a manner designed to be flexible and convenient for companies. Snowflake was built with the purpose of replacing legacy&nbsp;data warehouses. The Snowflake platform is essentially a complete redesign and reimagining of data warehouse architecture and technology</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f08eef11f814a575de7b02b82c5f49bb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"176\"><span>Source:Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"</span></p>\n<p></p>\n<p>The problem with how many companies handle data today, is that they have what is known as a&nbsp;siloed data&nbsp;problem. Siloed data simply means that the same information is often stored in different databases, leading to inconsistencies between data located in different parts of the company. Siloed data also often makes it difficult to join data to gain new insights or have the ability to act quickly on any new data.</p>\n<p>Snowflake gives company's the ability to join all of their data together and eliminate discrepancies between data from different sources, and reduce&nbsp;data latency. With joined data and reduced data latency, comes the ability for companies to use new incoming data quickly and this is a huge driver for Snowflake's business. When companies become Snowflake customers, they often find that what used to take hours or days to go through data now only takes minutes.</p>\n<p>With Snowflake's innovations, data is now moving from an era of simply informing people to driving operations right as the information signals come in with very little latency. No more will important business decisions be done with only anecdotal observation. Business decisions will increasingly be data driven. That is what digital transformation actually means for a business.</p>\n<p>Every business, in order to survive will eventually have to digitally transform and Snowflake is becoming an essential building block for digital transformation. The&nbsp;<b>Data Cloud</b>is the building block of digital transformation and Snowflake is evolving to become the largest independent&nbsp;<b>Data Cloud</b>.</p>\n<p><b>Data Sharing</b></p>\n<p>Anyone that has a Snowflake account is capable of sharing data. Data sharing is about to become an additional important business for Snowflake. Snowflake has already built a Data Marketplace and is on the verge of starting to really monetize it. Just recently,Snowflake announced&nbsp;that it was accelerating data collaboration with more than 500 Listings in the Snowflake Data Marketplace.</p>\n<p>Business will be able to search for what data is being offered on the Data Marketplace with some of the data offers being for free and some data offers for pay. The Snowflake management team expects that in the future, data networking will become frictionless and that today, we are on the beginning edges of a true data exchange network application.</p>\n<p>Snowflake expects data sharing to become a big part of their business moving forward and eventually a big part of any future moat because data sharing can translate into powerful&nbsp;network effects, in that the more businesses use the data sharing through Snowflake's market, the more valuable the Snowflake Data Market will become.</p>\n<p><b>Snowflake Architecture</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f8ac65aba89c4df78926d8b9684c24d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"363\"><span>Source:Snowflake Presentationtitled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8494b11b7683d8c1c9aa35501c234e01\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"439\"><span>Source:Snowflake User Guide</span></p>\n<p>Snowflake’s novel design consists of three components:</p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Storage</b>: the persistent storage layer for data stored on Snowflake</li>\n <li><b>Compute</b>: a collection of independent compute resources that execute data processing tasks required for queries. Snowflake also describes this compute as virtual warehouses.</li>\n <li><b>Services</b>: a collection of system services that handle infrastructure, security, metadata, and optimization across the entire Snowflake system</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Snowflake has a decoupled architecture that allows for compute and storage to scale separately. The database storage can be provided from any cloud provider that the customer chooses.</p>\n<p>Query processing or compute takes place in what Snowflake calls virtual warehouses. To simplify things for people that are not data experts, a&nbsp;<b>query</b>&nbsp;is a request for data&nbsp;or information from a database table or combination of tables. Query processing is simply using the compute resources to perform a search for data.</p>\n<p>Snowflake uses massively parallel processing or MPP, in the compute/virtual warehouse setup to process queries.Massively parallel processing&nbsp;is a form of collaborative processing of the same program by two or more processors or in this case virtual warehouses. The advantage of using MPP in the virtual warehouse setup is that the virtual warehouses can access the storage layer independently so as not to compete for compute power.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's virtual warehouses have the ability to access any of the databases in the database storage layer to which they have been granted access, and these virtual warehouses can be created, resized and deleted dynamically as resource needs change. When virtual warehouses execute queries, they transparently and automatically cache data from the database storage layer. Snowflake has the advantage of being able to dynamically bring together the storage, compute and services layers, delivering exactly the resources needed exactly when they are needed, meaning that under a multitude of different usage scenarios, Snowflake is able to dynamically create the right balance of IO, memory, CPU, etc.</p>\n<p>Traditional data warehouse, on the other hand, will often tightly couple the storage, compute, and database services. The disadvantage of doing this is there are performance limitations as the number of workloads and users increase, meaning such a configuration is not very scalable.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's competitors, such as Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Redshift, for instance, can be disadvantaged when having the compute and storage so tightly coupled, because more often than not more time must be spent manually reconfiguring things, which is a disadvantage.</p>\n<p>One of Snowflake’s&nbsp;unique value propositions&nbsp;is the company’s relatively flexible business model compared to its peers. Snowflake touts this ability on its website:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Whether you’re a business or technology professional, get the performance, flexibility, and near-infinite scalability to easily load, integrate, analyze and securely share your data.”\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:Snowflake\n</blockquote>\n<p>Snowflake's virtual data warehouse setup where workloads share the same data but can run independently, makes it easier for customers to run smaller workloads. Snowflake management calls this the ability to scale down. When a company joins Snowflake, it does not require a big upfront commitment like it might with other companies. Snowflake allows customers to fully customize their services with an ability to scale down to whatever level is needed. Companies only have to pay for the services they need, instead of having to pay for big bulked up packages containing unnecessary services.</p>\n<p>Snowflake’s competitors, on the other hand, often combine compute, storage and services, then require customers to size and pay based on the largest workload, which can make some data warehouses completely unaffordable or inefficient for some companies.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's documentation&nbsp;claims that the Snowflake data platform is not built on any existing database technology or “big data” software platforms such as&nbsp;Hadoop. Instead, Snowflake combines a completely new SQL query engine with an innovative database architecture natively designed for the cloud. This database and query engine helps Snowflake perform faster queries with fewer errors and costs over competitors.</p>\n<p>I don't want this explanation to get too technical for those not familiar with databases, storage or how the cloud works, so for those that want a more technical explanation of Snowflake's architecture, they can read Snowflake's&nbsp;documentation. or read a&nbsp;Snowflake Presentation&nbsp;titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\".</p>\n<p><b>C3 AI and Snowflake Partner</b></p>\n<p>Before going through earnings, I wanted to highlight&nbsp;some very recent news&nbsp;of a new collaboration between C3.ai (NYSE:AI) and Snowflake. C3 AI is an enterprise AI software provider that provides a suite that provides comprehensive services to build enterprise-scale AI applications more efficiently and cost-effectively than alternative approaches.</p>\n<p>This partnership will give companies that currently use Snowflake access to the C3 AI® Suite and pre-built C3 AI applications that include a range of industries and enterprise AI use cases, including AI-based CRM, predictive maintenance, supply network optimization, and fraud detection.</p>\n<blockquote>\n C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi, said the partnership \"will create significant time and operational efficiencies for Snowflake's customers and solidify Snowflake as the operational data platform of choice for enterprise AI applications.\"\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi -ZDNet\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Snowflake Q1 FY 2022 Earnings</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake's Q1 FY 2022 remaining performance obligations or RPO was $1.4 billion, representing 206% year-over-year growth. The RPO results reflected more multimillion-dollar relationships with particular strength in the telecom and technology sectors. Of the $1.4 billion in RPO, Snowflake expects approximately 54% to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>Snowflake defines RPO in its&nbsp;earnings press release&nbsp;as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods.</p>\n<p>RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears.<b>RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity</b>.</p>\n<p>At the end of Q1, Snowflake had 4,532 total customers. The total number reflects the addition of 393 net new customers in Q1, including three seven-figure new customers. Several of these customer wins might be recognizable names to investors that include Datadog (NASDAQ:DDOG) and Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) and Equifax (NYSE:EFX).</p>\n<p>Snowflake management has stated that they have a strong interest in penetrating more of the largest enterprises globally because they provide the largest opportunity for account expansion. On that note, Snowflake now has 104 customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, up from 77 last quarter. CFO Michael Scarpelli had some interesting things to say about Snowflake expanding with large customers that shows why the company's products are gaining fans among large enterprises</p>\n<blockquote>\n When we expand within our largest customers, we typically replace more than one solution. In many cases, we replace on-premise and first-generation cloud solutions, and we address new workloads.\n <b>Snowflake creates use cases that were previously impossible</b>. This is what fuels our 168% net revenue retention rate, and we remain confident that our net revenue retention will stay above 160% for the fiscal year.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n</blockquote>\n<p>Snowflake's&nbsp;net revenue retention rate of 168% is probably the best&nbsp;number in the SaaS world. Snowflake calculates their net retention number by first specifying a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from the current period end. Next, Snowflake defines the measurement cohort as the population of customers under capacity contracts that used the platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The net revenue retention is then defined as the quotient obtained by dividing the product revenue from the cohort in the second year of the measurement period by the product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period.</p>\n<p>So a net retention rate of 168% means that the customer cohort that spent $100 on average in the first year of the measurement period on the Snowflake platform is spending on average $168 in the second year of the measurement period.. Any customer in the cohort that did not use the platform in the second year remains in the calculation and simply contributes zero product revenue in the second year.</p>\n<p>Snowflake grew product and total revenues grew 110% year over year to $229 million. Product revenue grew to $214 million, reflecting strength in Snowflake consumption. Product revenue is a key metric for Snowflake because revenue is recognized based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at the customers discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Professional services and other revenue was 15 million.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b09f8c93a8df1f1ad6663d3c88240f18\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>As explained in Snowflake's&nbsp;Q1 FY2022 earnings release, product revenue primarily includes compute, storage, and data transfer resources, which are consumed by customers on Snowflake's platform as a single, integrated offering. Snowflake customers have the ability to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally on the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's consumption-based business model distinguishes the company from subscription-based SaaS companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover of services. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, Snowflake believes that the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from the platform.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbf138441130b474d888f2b8c3b6a14d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Snowflake's Cost of Sales was $97.35 million. Snowflake's overall Gross Profit rose 98.6% to $131.57 million. Overall Gross Margins were 57.47% and on a non-GAAP basis, Snowflake's<b>product</b>gross margin was 72%, up from 66% in the comparable quarter last year<b>.</b></p>\n<p>Favorable cloud service agreements, growing scale across different regions and Snowflake's enterprise customer's success all contributed to steady product gross margin improvements. Management also indicated during the earnings call that in the long term, the product gross margin number could trend upward into the mid 70’s with the help of improved data storage economics. The recent changes to Snowflake’s storage representation of data have resulted in better data compression and reduced storage costs, which help the gross margin.</p>\n<blockquote>\n And the way it [Data Compression] improves margin is because storage becomes more efficient. Storage is a smaller component of the overall mix of the revenue, and compute is the real value of our software that drives more margin. And I will say we did roll this out in April, and you do see some of that coming into an impact on last quarter. But we did say at our IPO, if you remember, we thought we could get to the mid-70s [in product gross margins]. That might feel very good that we'll get to the mid-70s. It's going to take some time.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n</blockquote>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/529eb97bb77469e322f930569f856186\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Total Operating Expenditures were $337.16 Million.

Some analysts like Patrick Colville of Deutsche Bank think&nbsp;guidance is conservative&nbsp;because it implies that Snowflake would only capture about 12% of the $86B data warehouse market estimated for FY29.</p>\n<p>That all goes to show that there are already enormous growth expectations built into this stock because $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 is a fairly ambitious goal.</p>\n<p>One other interesting part of the presentation was that the CFO raised the total addressable market for Snowflake to $90 billion, up from the $81 billion used for the roadshow for the IPO.</p>\n<p><b>Competitors</b></p>\n<p>In addition to database warehouses Druid and Dremio, Snowflake's strongest competitors appear to be the big data warehouse systems from the major cloud players like Amazon's Redshift, Microsoft Azure's Synapse, and Google's Big Query.</p>\n<p>Amazon, Microsoft and Google are all choosing to compete against Snowflake's new ideas in database warehouses by using the time honored tactic of trying to copy as many of Snowflake's features as possible..</p>\n<p>The advantage that Snowflake has over Amazon, Microsoft and Google in those companies trying to play copycat is that those database warehouses don't scale as well across different data sources (namely competing cloud storage services) and the major cloud players are not fully independent database warehouse providers, meaning that in the end, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are trying to lock customers in to as many of their bundled cloud services as possible. Snowflake doesn't care what cloud service a customer uses for services like storage, as Snowflake is truly neutral in the cloud wars, which is very desirable in a&nbsp;multi-cloud world.</p>\n<p>Of all the competitors, Google Big Query is currently the closest competitor to what Snowflake is doing as it also separates storage and compute. The biggest differences between Snowflake and BigQuery comes down to&nbsp;pricing and performance. Beth Kindig, in her article about Snowflake said this about Snowflake vs Big Query:</p>\n<blockquote>\n When it comes to deciding between BigQuery and Snowflake, it can come down to what you do with the database due to pricing structure differences. For instance, Snowflake is a better choice for concurrent users and business intelligence. It’s also a great choice for data-as-a-service, where you might give client access to your data in the form of analytics. BigQuery is perhaps a better choice for ad hoc reporting, where you have occasional complex reports on a quarterly basis or recommendation models and machine learning that require high idle time. Again, these examples are mainly due to pricing structure.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: Beth Kindig -Forbes article\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake has significant valuation risk, even with the pullback in the stock price from its highs in December. For Snowflake to expand its valuation any further, it is going to require the company to continue posting outstanding growth numbers.</p>\n<p>Secondarily, Snowflake currently only offers their platform on the public clouds provided by AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are also some of the company's primary competitors. Currently, a substantial majority of Snowflake's business is run on the AWS public cloud.</p>\n<p>So, while Snowflake has some competitive advantages over a cloud giant like AWS, there is a risk that AWS or one of the other cloud giants could use the control of their public cloud to embed innovations for competing offerings to Snowflake or bundle competing products together with other cloud services or leverage their public cloud customer relationships to exclude Snowflake from opportunities. The reason why this risk might not play out in the cloud giants favor is that it appears companies are&nbsp;favoring multi-cloud approaches&nbsp;and have little desire in being locked into only one cloud by a bundled product. That is where Snowflake's Switzerland neutral status in the cloud wars provides some protection but not total protection from this risk.</p>\n<p>On another note, though, because the three major cloud players also provides much of the infrastructure for Snowflake's business model, in the future it is completely possible that Snowflake could face the risk of unfavorable pricing for the use of the underlying cloud infrastructure, which could hurt Snowflake's margins.</p>\n<p>Snowflake could also undergo pricing pressure on the services offered to customers, as a company like Amazon could do something like offer discount pricing for competing services to customers and that scenario could also threaten Snowflake's margins over the longer term. Amazon has been known to use that strategy in other areas of their business in the past.</p>\n<p>Another risk is regulatory. Snowflake must comply with evolving privacy and other data related laws. The requirements for following those laws could be expensive and force the company to make adverse changes to the business, with failure to comply with such laws not being much of an option. Examples of these types of laws are General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).</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><p>Salesforce</p><p>(CRM)</p></td>\n   <td>$222.53B</td>\n   <td>10.30</td>\n   <td>51.27%</td>\n   <td>8.1</td>\n   <td>22.57%</td>\n   <td>73.92%</td>\n   <td>5.96B</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Snowflake (SNOW)</td>\n   <td>$71.25B</td>\n   <td>87.93</td>\n   <td>1.09%</td>\n   <td>60.4</td>\n   <td>110.4%</td>\n   <td>57.47%</td>\n   <td>228.9M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Okta (OKTA)</td>\n   <td>$34.63B</td>\n   <td>32.59</td>\n   <td>20.99%</td>\n   <td>27.6</td>\n   <td>37.27%</td>\n   <td>73.66%</td>\n   <td>$251M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>MongoDB (MDB)</td>\n   <td>$20.76B</td>\n   <td>32.36</td>\n   <td>5.28%</td>\n   <td>26.8</td>\n   <td>39.38%</td>\n   <td>69.98%</td>\n   <td>$181.7M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Teradata (TDC)</td>\n   <td>$5.23B</td>\n   <td>2.76</td>\n   <td>21.38%</td>\n   <td>2.7</td>\n   <td>13.13%</td>\n   <td>62.53%</td>\n   <td>491M</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Two things are very obvious about the above company comparisons. One is that Snowflake, even with substantial pullback from its all time highs in December is very highly valued on a Price to Sales basis. Second, is that Snowflake was still growing triple digits in the latest quarter, which is pretty amazing.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, investors were not impressed by the guidance given during earnings, nor were they impressed by Snowflake's long term projections given during their recent Investor Day. One thing is for sure, for investors to bid Snowflake's stock up further, the company will have to keep producingmind boggling growth numbers.</p>\n<p>The following is based on 26 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Snowflake in the last 3 months. The average price target is $292.12 with a high forecast of $515.00 and a low forecast of $240.60. The average price target represents a 21.41% from the last price of $240.60.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/007fe75a78c7835e52d8edf8bc7f6bed\" tg-width=\"499\" tg-height=\"405\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake is a stock that has very high expectations built into the stock price. The latest earnings and guidance, plus the latest investor day were not enough to get investors excited about pushing the value of the stock much further than it is now.</p>\n<p>However, I think that with a company like Snowflake, one has to take a much longer view than simply looking at one quarter's metrics. I believe it is appropriate to take at least a five year view with this company to see that the future is likely very bright. I believe Snowflake is being very conservative with their long term projections given during Investor Day and if that should prove to be the case, we all might look back several years from now and see with the benefit of hindsight that the stock was actually undervalued.</p>\n<p>I believe that the idea of a Data Cloud and a Data Marketplace are very, very early in the product life cycle and that Snowflake is at the beginning of a strong run of customer and revenue growth over the next several years. Snowflake is a buy but only for&nbsp;<b>veryaggressive investors</b>&nbsp;because there is already a lot of growth embedded in Snowflake's valuation and if the company fails to produce that expected growth, then the stock could drop rapidly.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Snowflake was at the time of its IPO, a unprofitable software company, which is why it was interesting that Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) , which normally eschews investing in software or cloud companies actually wound up investing $735 million or 6.1 million Snowflake shares at the $120 IPO price.\nOn September 18, 2020, CEO Frank Slootman,in an interview, disclosed that Berkshire's insurance unit has been using Snowflake's services for quite awhile and that might be part of the reason that Berkshire was comfortable enough to invest in Snowflake's stock. The Slootman interview also disclosed that Snowflake's interactions with Berkshire have been through Todd Combs, the CEO of Berkshire holding GEICO. Since Todd Combs also serves as a Berkshire investment manager, he is probably the one directly responsible for the Snowflake investment and not Buffett.\nSalesforce Ventures (NYSE:CRM) also decided to make an investment of more than $500 million in the company at the IPO, as a play on digital transformation and long term cloud adoption. Snowflake's stock soared in the months following its IPO, partially due to investors being interested in the fastest growing of all the fast growing digital transformation plays and partially due to Snowflake receiving the seal of approval from both Berkshire and Salesforce.\nSnowflake finally ended up reached an all time high of $429.00 within the December 8th market session, at which point Snowflake was selling for 245x Sales and was already being called \"The Most Highly Valued Large Cap Company in History\".\nEventually, due to fears of rising interest rates and inflation, investors began losing enthusiasm for stocks selling at high valuations and nervous investors have since sold Snowflake's stock down to the point where it had reached all time lows of $184.71 per share on May 13. Since, then the stock has risen slightly over 30% and the question now becomes for investors, \"Is Snowflake a buy at current prices, even though, the company still sells for around 85X sales?\"\nData by YCharts\nThis article will go through some of the reasons why many investors are still very infatuated with Snowflake and also go through recent earnings, as well as explain why I consider Snowflake a buy for very aggressive investors.\nSnowflake CEO Frank Slootman\nSnowflake was founded in July 2012 by two former Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) engineers Benoit Dageville and Thierry Cruanes, along with Marcin Żukowski, co-founder of the Dutch start-up Vectorwise. The first CEO of Snowflake was Mike Speiser, a venture capitalist at Sutter Hill Ventures. In June 2014, Snowflake appointed former Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) executive Bob Muglia as CEO, as the company emerged from stealth mode.\nIn May 2019, the company decided to change the leadership team again to Frank Slootman, the retired former CEO of ServiceNow (NASDAQ:NOW), who joined Snowflake as its CEO and Michael Scarpelli, the former CFO of ServiceNow who joined Snowflake as CFO.\nIn an article Beth Kindig wrote for Forbes near the date of the IPO, she indicated that the change of CEOs from Bob Muglia to Frank Slootman likely occurred because of pressure from private investors that wanted leadership from someone that had a proven track record of showing that they could grow an enterprise tech company very quickly and who also could make a successful profitable exit for investors in an IPO. Investors got that type of CEO in Frank Slootman, who has a type of \"Rockstar\" status among CEOs.\n\n “He’s one of the most impressive, most accomplished, most respected CEOs in enterprise tech,” said Asheem Chandna, a software investor at Greylock Partners, which invested in the first two companies Slootman took public, Data Domain (later acquired by EMC and now part ofDell) and ServiceNow. “He’s a take-no-prisoners leader. He can point at a hill and inspire the entire team to follow him to take the hill.”\n\n\n Source:CNBC\n\nFrank Slootman already had a rich history that involved turning around a company called Data Domain, which was detailed in his book “TAPE SUCKS: Inside Data Domain, A Silicon Valley Growth Story”. When Slootman first took over Data Domain in 2003, the company had no customers, no revenues, and was a few months away from bankruptcy. In six years, Slootman grew Data Domain to the point where it was selling more than all of its competitors combined. Slootman then successfully sold the company to EMC (NYSE:DELL) in 2009 for $2.1 billion and the Data Domain product line has been Dell EMC's flagship platform for backup, archive and disaster recovery ever since.\nTwo years later, Slootman took over the CEO role of ServiceNow between 2011 to 2017. Part of Slootman's accomplishments at ServiceNow was guiding the company to a 2012 IPO.\nFor individuals that think that the role of the CEO is essential for a company's success, Snowflake has perhaps one of the best CEOs in the tech sector and the presence of CEO Frank Slootman alone, should be reason enough to consider Snowflake as an investment.\nThe Data Cloud\nSnowflake is a cloud native company that offers unlimited storage and compute in the cloud in a manner designed to be flexible and convenient for companies. Snowflake was built with the purpose of replacing legacy data warehouses. The Snowflake platform is essentially a complete redesign and reimagining of data warehouse architecture and technology\nSource:Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"\n\nThe problem with how many companies handle data today, is that they have what is known as a siloed data problem. Siloed data simply means that the same information is often stored in different databases, leading to inconsistencies between data located in different parts of the company. Siloed data also often makes it difficult to join data to gain new insights or have the ability to act quickly on any new data.\nSnowflake gives company's the ability to join all of their data together and eliminate discrepancies between data from different sources, and reduce data latency. With joined data and reduced data latency, comes the ability for companies to use new incoming data quickly and this is a huge driver for Snowflake's business. When companies become Snowflake customers, they often find that what used to take hours or days to go through data now only takes minutes.\nWith Snowflake's innovations, data is now moving from an era of simply informing people to driving operations right as the information signals come in with very little latency. No more will important business decisions be done with only anecdotal observation. Business decisions will increasingly be data driven. That is what digital transformation actually means for a business.\nEvery business, in order to survive will eventually have to digitally transform and Snowflake is becoming an essential building block for digital transformation. The Data Cloudis the building block of digital transformation and Snowflake is evolving to become the largest independent Data Cloud.\nData Sharing\nAnyone that has a Snowflake account is capable of sharing data. Data sharing is about to become an additional important business for Snowflake. Snowflake has already built a Data Marketplace and is on the verge of starting to really monetize it. Just recently,Snowflake announced that it was accelerating data collaboration with more than 500 Listings in the Snowflake Data Marketplace.\nBusiness will be able to search for what data is being offered on the Data Marketplace with some of the data offers being for free and some data offers for pay. The Snowflake management team expects that in the future, data networking will become frictionless and that today, we are on the beginning edges of a true data exchange network application.\nSnowflake expects data sharing to become a big part of their business moving forward and eventually a big part of any future moat because data sharing can translate into powerful network effects, in that the more businesses use the data sharing through Snowflake's market, the more valuable the Snowflake Data Market will become.\nSnowflake Architecture\nSource:Snowflake Presentationtitled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"\nSource:Snowflake User Guide\nSnowflake’s novel design consists of three components:\n\nStorage: the persistent storage layer for data stored on Snowflake\nCompute: a collection of independent compute resources that execute data processing tasks required for queries. Snowflake also describes this compute as virtual warehouses.\nServices: a collection of system services that handle infrastructure, security, metadata, and optimization across the entire Snowflake system\n\nSnowflake has a decoupled architecture that allows for compute and storage to scale separately. The database storage can be provided from any cloud provider that the customer chooses.\nQuery processing or compute takes place in what Snowflake calls virtual warehouses. To simplify things for people that are not data experts, a query is a request for data or information from a database table or combination of tables. Query processing is simply using the compute resources to perform a search for data.\nSnowflake uses massively parallel processing or MPP, in the compute/virtual warehouse setup to process queries.Massively parallel processing is a form of collaborative processing of the same program by two or more processors or in this case virtual warehouses. The advantage of using MPP in the virtual warehouse setup is that the virtual warehouses can access the storage layer independently so as not to compete for compute power.\nSnowflake's virtual warehouses have the ability to access any of the databases in the database storage layer to which they have been granted access, and these virtual warehouses can be created, resized and deleted dynamically as resource needs change. When virtual warehouses execute queries, they transparently and automatically cache data from the database storage layer. Snowflake has the advantage of being able to dynamically bring together the storage, compute and services layers, delivering exactly the resources needed exactly when they are needed, meaning that under a multitude of different usage scenarios, Snowflake is able to dynamically create the right balance of IO, memory, CPU, etc.\nTraditional data warehouse, on the other hand, will often tightly couple the storage, compute, and database services. The disadvantage of doing this is there are performance limitations as the number of workloads and users increase, meaning such a configuration is not very scalable.\nSnowflake's competitors, such as Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Redshift, for instance, can be disadvantaged when having the compute and storage so tightly coupled, because more often than not more time must be spent manually reconfiguring things, which is a disadvantage.\nOne of Snowflake’s unique value propositions is the company’s relatively flexible business model compared to its peers. Snowflake touts this ability on its website:\n\n “Whether you’re a business or technology professional, get the performance, flexibility, and near-infinite scalability to easily load, integrate, analyze and securely share your data.”\n\n\n Source:Snowflake\n\nSnowflake's virtual data warehouse setup where workloads share the same data but can run independently, makes it easier for customers to run smaller workloads. Snowflake management calls this the ability to scale down. When a company joins Snowflake, it does not require a big upfront commitment like it might with other companies. Snowflake allows customers to fully customize their services with an ability to scale down to whatever level is needed. Companies only have to pay for the services they need, instead of having to pay for big bulked up packages containing unnecessary services.\nSnowflake’s competitors, on the other hand, often combine compute, storage and services, then require customers to size and pay based on the largest workload, which can make some data warehouses completely unaffordable or inefficient for some companies.\nSnowflake's documentation claims that the Snowflake data platform is not built on any existing database technology or “big data” software platforms such as Hadoop. Instead, Snowflake combines a completely new SQL query engine with an innovative database architecture natively designed for the cloud. This database and query engine helps Snowflake perform faster queries with fewer errors and costs over competitors.\nI don't want this explanation to get too technical for those not familiar with databases, storage or how the cloud works, so for those that want a more technical explanation of Snowflake's architecture, they can read Snowflake's documentation. or read a Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\".\nC3 AI and Snowflake Partner\nBefore going through earnings, I wanted to highlight some very recent news of a new collaboration between C3.ai (NYSE:AI) and Snowflake. C3 AI is an enterprise AI software provider that provides a suite that provides comprehensive services to build enterprise-scale AI applications more efficiently and cost-effectively than alternative approaches.\nThis partnership will give companies that currently use Snowflake access to the C3 AI® Suite and pre-built C3 AI applications that include a range of industries and enterprise AI use cases, including AI-based CRM, predictive maintenance, supply network optimization, and fraud detection.\n\n C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi, said the partnership \"will create significant time and operational efficiencies for Snowflake's customers and solidify Snowflake as the operational data platform of choice for enterprise AI applications.\"\n\n\n Source: C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi -ZDNet\n\nSnowflake Q1 FY 2022 Earnings\nSnowflake's Q1 FY 2022 remaining performance obligations or RPO was $1.4 billion, representing 206% year-over-year growth. The RPO results reflected more multimillion-dollar relationships with particular strength in the telecom and technology sectors. Of the $1.4 billion in RPO, Snowflake expects approximately 54% to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.\nSnowflake defines RPO in its earnings press release as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods.\nRPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears.RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity.\nAt the end of Q1, Snowflake had 4,532 total customers. The total number reflects the addition of 393 net new customers in Q1, including three seven-figure new customers. Several of these customer wins might be recognizable names to investors that include Datadog (NASDAQ:DDOG) and Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) and Equifax (NYSE:EFX).\nSnowflake management has stated that they have a strong interest in penetrating more of the largest enterprises globally because they provide the largest opportunity for account expansion. On that note, Snowflake now has 104 customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, up from 77 last quarter. CFO Michael Scarpelli had some interesting things to say about Snowflake expanding with large customers that shows why the company's products are gaining fans among large enterprises\n\n When we expand within our largest customers, we typically replace more than one solution. In many cases, we replace on-premise and first-generation cloud solutions, and we address new workloads.\n Snowflake creates use cases that were previously impossible. This is what fuels our 168% net revenue retention rate, and we remain confident that our net revenue retention will stay above 160% for the fiscal year.\n\n\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n\nSnowflake's net revenue retention rate of 168% is probably the best number in the SaaS world. Snowflake calculates their net retention number by first specifying a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from the current period end. Next, Snowflake defines the measurement cohort as the population of customers under capacity contracts that used the platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The net revenue retention is then defined as the quotient obtained by dividing the product revenue from the cohort in the second year of the measurement period by the product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period.\nSo a net retention rate of 168% means that the customer cohort that spent $100 on average in the first year of the measurement period on the Snowflake platform is spending on average $168 in the second year of the measurement period.. Any customer in the cohort that did not use the platform in the second year remains in the calculation and simply contributes zero product revenue in the second year.\nSnowflake grew product and total revenues grew 110% year over year to $229 million. Product revenue grew to $214 million, reflecting strength in Snowflake consumption. Product revenue is a key metric for Snowflake because revenue is recognized based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at the customers discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Professional services and other revenue was 15 million.\nData by YCharts\nAs explained in Snowflake's Q1 FY2022 earnings release, product revenue primarily includes compute, storage, and data transfer resources, which are consumed by customers on Snowflake's platform as a single, integrated offering. Snowflake customers have the ability to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally on the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.\nSnowflake's consumption-based business model distinguishes the company from subscription-based SaaS companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover of services. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, Snowflake believes that the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from the platform.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake's Cost of Sales was $97.35 million. Snowflake's overall Gross Profit rose 98.6% to $131.57 million. Overall Gross Margins were 57.47% and on a non-GAAP basis, Snowflake'sproductgross margin was 72%, up from 66% in the comparable quarter last year.\nFavorable cloud service agreements, growing scale across different regions and Snowflake's enterprise customer's success all contributed to steady product gross margin improvements. Management also indicated during the earnings call that in the long term, the product gross margin number could trend upward into the mid 70’s with the help of improved data storage economics. The recent changes to Snowflake’s storage representation of data have resulted in better data compression and reduced storage costs, which help the gross margin.\n\n And the way it [Data Compression] improves margin is because storage becomes more efficient. Storage is a smaller component of the overall mix of the revenue, and compute is the real value of our software that drives more margin. And I will say we did roll this out in April, and you do see some of that coming into an impact on last quarter. But we did say at our IPO, if you remember, we thought we could get to the mid-70s [in product gross margins]. That might feel very good that we'll get to the mid-70s. It's going to take some time.\n\n\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n\nData by YCharts\nTotal Operating Expenditures were $337.16 Million. Snowflake recorded an Operating Loss of $205.60 Million. Product Operating margin was negative 16%, benefiting from revenue outperformance.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake recorded a net loss of $203.22 Million in Q1. Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted was -$0.70.\nData by YCharts\nAdjusted free cash flow margin was 10% and was positively impacted by strong collections from Q4 bookings and operating margin outperformance. Adjusted free cash flow excludes the $10 million impact of net cash paid or received on both employee and employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock option transactions. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow plus (minus) net cash paid (received) on payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions.\nFree cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software development costs. Free cash flow was $2.48 million during Q1.\nData by YCharts\nIt is important to remember that Snowflake does experience free cash flow seasonality. In fiscal '21, Q1 and Q4 were the strongest free cash flow quarters, while Q2 was the weakest and this pattern is expected to continue in future periods.\nGuidance\nSnowflake Q2 FY2022 Guidance\nFY 2022 Full Year Guidance\nSource:Snowflake First Quarter of Fiscal 2022 Press Release\nBalance Sheet\nThe company’s balance sheet is healthy, with approximately $3.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.\nData by YCharts\nTotal Current Liabilities are $777.00 Million. Quick ratio was 5.27. A good quick ratio is any number greater than 1.0. Snowflake has aDebt To Equity ratioof 0.04.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake Investor Day\nSnowflake held an Investor Day on June 10th, in which the company revealed plans to reach $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 (FY29), a big rise from fiscal 2021’s $554 million, with a long-term operating margin target of 10%.\nInvestors, however, seem to have wanted even more growth as the stock opened around 4% lower the next day. Some analysts like Patrick Colville of Deutsche Bank think guidance is conservative because it implies that Snowflake would only capture about 12% of the $86B data warehouse market estimated for FY29.\nThat all goes to show that there are already enormous growth expectations built into this stock because $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 is a fairly ambitious goal.\nOne other interesting part of the presentation was that the CFO raised the total addressable market for Snowflake to $90 billion, up from the $81 billion used for the roadshow for the IPO.\nCompetitors\nIn addition to database warehouses Druid and Dremio, Snowflake's strongest competitors appear to be the big data warehouse systems from the major cloud players like Amazon's Redshift, Microsoft Azure's Synapse, and Google's Big Query.\nAmazon, Microsoft and Google are all choosing to compete against Snowflake's new ideas in database warehouses by using the time honored tactic of trying to copy as many of Snowflake's features as possible..\nThe advantage that Snowflake has over Amazon, Microsoft and Google in those companies trying to play copycat is that those database warehouses don't scale as well across different data sources (namely competing cloud storage services) and the major cloud players are not fully independent database warehouse providers, meaning that in the end, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are trying to lock customers in to as many of their bundled cloud services as possible. Snowflake doesn't care what cloud service a customer uses for services like storage, as Snowflake is truly neutral in the cloud wars, which is very desirable in a multi-cloud world.\nOf all the competitors, Google Big Query is currently the closest competitor to what Snowflake is doing as it also separates storage and compute. The biggest differences between Snowflake and BigQuery comes down to pricing and performance. Beth Kindig, in her article about Snowflake said this about Snowflake vs Big Query:\n\n When it comes to deciding between BigQuery and Snowflake, it can come down to what you do with the database due to pricing structure differences. For instance, Snowflake is a better choice for concurrent users and business intelligence. It’s also a great choice for data-as-a-service, where you might give client access to your data in the form of analytics. BigQuery is perhaps a better choice for ad hoc reporting, where you have occasional complex reports on a quarterly basis or recommendation models and machine learning that require high idle time. Again, these examples are mainly due to pricing structure.\n\n\n Source: Beth Kindig -Forbes article\n\nRisks\nSnowflake has significant valuation risk, even with the pullback in the stock price from its highs in December. For Snowflake to expand its valuation any further, it is going to require the company to continue posting outstanding growth numbers.\nSecondarily, Snowflake currently only offers their platform on the public clouds provided by AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are also some of the company's primary competitors. Currently, a substantial majority of Snowflake's business is run on the AWS public cloud.\nSo, while Snowflake has some competitive advantages over a cloud giant like AWS, there is a risk that AWS or one of the other cloud giants could use the control of their public cloud to embed innovations for competing offerings to Snowflake or bundle competing products together with other cloud services or leverage their public cloud customer relationships to exclude Snowflake from opportunities. The reason why this risk might not play out in the cloud giants favor is that it appears companies are favoring multi-cloud approaches and have little desire in being locked into only one cloud by a bundled product. That is where Snowflake's Switzerland neutral status in the cloud wars provides some protection but not total protection from this risk.\nOn another note, though, because the three major cloud players also provides much of the infrastructure for Snowflake's business model, in the future it is completely possible that Snowflake could face the risk of unfavorable pricing for the use of the underlying cloud infrastructure, which could hurt Snowflake's margins.\nSnowflake could also undergo pricing pressure on the services offered to customers, as a company like Amazon could do something like offer discount pricing for competing services to customers and that scenario could also threaten Snowflake's margins over the longer term. Amazon has been known to use that strategy in other areas of their business in the past.\nAnother risk is regulatory. Snowflake must comply with evolving privacy and other data related laws. The requirements for following those laws could be expensive and force the company to make adverse changes to the business, with failure to comply with such laws not being much of an option. Examples of these types of laws are General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).\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\nSalesforce(CRM)\n$222.53B\n10.30\n51.27%\n8.1\n22.57%\n73.92%\n5.96B\n\n\nSnowflake (SNOW)\n$71.25B\n87.93\n1.09%\n60.4\n110.4%\n57.47%\n228.9M\n\n\nOkta (OKTA)\n$34.63B\n32.59\n20.99%\n27.6\n37.27%\n73.66%\n$251M\n\n\nMongoDB (MDB)\n$20.76B\n32.36\n5.28%\n26.8\n39.38%\n69.98%\n$181.7M\n\n\nTeradata (TDC)\n$5.23B\n2.76\n21.38%\n2.7\n13.13%\n62.53%\n491M\n\n\n\nTwo things are very obvious about the above company comparisons. One is that Snowflake, even with substantial pullback from its all time highs in December is very highly valued on a Price to Sales basis. Second, is that Snowflake was still growing triple digits in the latest quarter, which is pretty amazing.\nOn the other hand, investors were not impressed by the guidance given during earnings, nor were they impressed by Snowflake's long term projections given during their recent Investor Day. One thing is for sure, for investors to bid Snowflake's stock up further, the company will have to keep producingmind boggling growth numbers.\nThe following is based on 26 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Snowflake in the last 3 months. The average price target is $292.12 with a high forecast of $515.00 and a low forecast of $240.60. The average price target represents a 21.41% from the last price of $240.60.\n\nConclusion\nSnowflake is a stock that has very high expectations built into the stock price. The latest earnings and guidance, plus the latest investor day were not enough to get investors excited about pushing the value of the stock much further than it is now.\nHowever, I think that with a company like Snowflake, one has to take a much longer view than simply looking at one quarter's metrics. I believe it is appropriate to take at least a five year view with this company to see that the future is likely very bright. I believe Snowflake is being very conservative with their long term projections given during Investor Day and if that should prove to be the case, we all might look back several years from now and see with the benefit of hindsight that the stock was actually undervalued.\nI believe that the idea of a Data Cloud and a Data Marketplace are very, very early in the product life cycle and that Snowflake is at the beginning of a strong run of customer and revenue growth over the next several years. Snowflake is a buy but only for veryaggressive investors because there is already a lot of growth embedded in Snowflake's valuation and if the company fails to produce that expected growth, then the stock could drop rapidly.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":161381525,"gmtCreate":1623905176067,"gmtModify":1703823168747,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/161381525","repostId":"2143794095","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143794095","pubTimestamp":1623892525,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143794095?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 09:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Goes Bargain Hunting: 3 Stocks She Just Bought","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143794095","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"ARK Invest's star stock picker is scooping up promising stocks that are trading well below recent highs.","content":"<p>No one consistently lit up the market the way ARK Invest's Cathie Wood did last year.

On Tuesday she increased her positions in DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG), JD.com (NASDAQ:JD), and UiPath (NYSE:PATH). Let's take a closer look at her shopping list.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nDraftKings\nFantasy sports is a gateway drug to real-money wagering, and no one is playing this game better than DraftKings. The platform that offers cash prizes for picking optimal starting league lineups is also using its popularity with competitive sports fans to prop up its growing sportsbook operations.\nRevenue rose 90% last year, a pretty amazing feat in a pandemic year where many seasons were delayed and shortened. Revenue soared 253% in the first quarter of this year, better-than-expected results even if the comparisons were going to be kind given the sporting world calamity that started in March of last year.\nDraftKings stock tumbled as much as 12% on Tuesday -- recovering to a more acceptable 4% decline by the close -- after becoming the latest short target of noted worrywart Hindenburg Research. The negative report alleges that one of the merger partners behind DraftKings hitting the market last year has a history of black-market gaming, money laundering, and organized crime. It could prove problematic if still relevant, but Wood apparently added to her DraftKings position during Tuesday's down day.\nJD.com\nWood has been trimming her exposure to many of China's best-known growth stocks, but JD.com has been the exception. She has added to China's largest online retailer (in terms of revenue) on back-to-back trading days. It goes to show that investing in Chinese stocks isn't simply a matter of yes or no, as it's a more nuanced decision.\nRevenue growth decelerated to a 25% clip in 2019, but JD.com is starting to press down on the accelerator. Net revenue rose 29% last year, soaring 39% through the first three months of 2021. It's the kind of momentum you like to see in any growth stocks, and this is a good sign that -- despite unloading a lot of shares of Chinese growth stocks through May -- she's not giving up on the world's most populous nation.\nUiPath\nThere are a couple of names scattered among Wood's ETFs that weren't even public when the year began. ARK Invest isn't afraid to buy into new issues while they still have that new stock smell, and that's where UiPath comes in. The provider of enterprise software for robotics went public at $56 just two months ago. The stock closed at $70 on Tuesday, but it was trading as high as $90 just three weeks ago. Wood doesn't let downticks sway her from investing in promising companies, and UiPath fits that bill.\nRevenue rose 81% in fiscal 2021, climbing 65% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. UiPath isn't expected to turn a profit until 2024 at the earliest, but flush with nearly $1.9 billion in cash after its springtime IPO it has more than enough dry powder to stay in the fight until it gets there.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":104,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169734968,"gmtCreate":1623850669454,"gmtModify":1703821353794,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169734968","repostId":"2143779143","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187932049,"gmtCreate":1623733903681,"gmtModify":1704209927466,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187932049","repostId":"2143178756","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143178756","pubTimestamp":1623719401,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143178756?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 09:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks to Avoid This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143178756","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These investments seem pretty vulnerable right now.","content":"<p>In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME), <b>AMC Entertainment Holdings</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:AMC), and <b>Carnival</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>GameStop lived up to my prediction on tumbling the day after reporting quarterly results, something that has now happened in 10 of the past 11 reports.

The country's largest multiplex operator has upped its seat reservations and mobile order tech and carved out a new revenue stream with actively promoted private rentals. The new Investor Connect program is sheer genius, monetizing its newborn attention as a meme stock with millions of retail investors by trying to convert them into customers.</p>\n<p>However, after ballooning its share count north of 500 million -- and the stock still moving higher -- there will eventually be a price to be paid in terms of valuation. AMC Entertainment enters this week with an enterprise value above $35 billion, and sooner or later someone is going to have to pay the tab at the end of the party.</p>\n<p>AMC is doing the right things to stay on top of a declining industry, but it's not enough to justify today's sticker price.&nbsp; This has historically been a low-margin business -- in the low single digits for net margin most years -- despite the markup on concessions. You'll see a year-over-year bounce this year, but we may never return to 2019 as a baseline. Theatrical release windows are being shattered by streaming initiatives. AMC has bloated its debt levels and share count to stay alive, but all of this comes at a price that right now seems too dear to pay.</p>\n<h2>3. Osprey Bitcoin Trust</h2>\n<p>I believe in keeping a small percent of your risk-tolerant portfolio in crypto, but not every vehicle is in the same boat. Osprey Bitcoin Trust offers investors a low-cost way to play the popularity of <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) in a stock exchange-listed vehicle.</p>\n<p>Osprey Bitcoin Trust is a lot smaller than the market's original Bitcoin-owning trust, and it's also trading at an unsustainable premium. Osprey's mark-up to its stake of Bitcoin tokens has been contracting since hitting the market earlier this year, and I was starting to get interested when the premium narrowed to 12% a week ago.</p>\n<p>The mark-up is going the wrong way again. Osprey Bitcoin Trust owns what is currently $12.68 in Bitcoin, but it closed last week at $14.95. Is an 18% premium worth it when the much larger -- but admittedly more high-cost -- <b>Grayscale Bitcoin Trust</b> (OTC:GBTC) is fetching an 11% discount to its net asset value?</p>\n<p>If you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in Royal Caribbean, AMC Entertainment, and Osprey Bitcoin Trust this week.</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 Stocks to Avoid 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\">\n3 Stocks to Avoid This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-15 09:10 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that GameStop (NYSE:GME), AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), and Carnival (NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.\n\nGameStop lived up to...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"OBTC":"Osprey Bitcoin Trust","CCL":"嘉年华邮轮","GME":"游戏驿站","AMC":"AMC院线"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2143178756","content_text":"In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that GameStop (NYSE:GME), AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), and Carnival (NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.\n\nGameStop lived up to my prediction on tumbling the day after reporting quarterly results, something that has now happened in 10 of the past 11 reports.

But there are also fundamentally strong names where initiating a short position can be risky. These are the so called unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>True,&nbsp;Short squeeze rallies have delivered multi-fold returns for investors.<b>AMC Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMC</u></b>) is the recent case of a short squeeze rally. However, this does not change the fact that some stocks are worth going short. It’s very likely that AMC stock will witness an equally sharp correction.</p>\n<p>That’s not the case with unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>My focus is on four unshortable stocks where short interest as a percentage of free float is approximately 1%. Two of these stocks trade near all-time highs. The other two are in a consolidation mode and there seems to be a high probability of a breakout on the upside.</p>\n<p>The reasons for these stocks being unshortable are strong fundamentals, high growth and strong cash flows. Additionally, there are ample positive business growth catalysts on the horizon.</p>\n<p>Let’s take a deeper look into the reasons that make these stocks unshortable.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Nvidia</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVDA</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Target</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TGT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Shopify</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SHOP</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AAPL</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Nvidia (NVDA)</b></p>\n<p>NVDA stock is currently trading near 52-week highs. However, the short interest in the stock is just 1% of the free float. This is probably an indication of the point that NVDA stock is among the unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>From a fundamental perspective, Nvidia has been on a high growth trajectory. For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.</p>\n<p>In addition, Nvidia reported&nbsp;operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.</p>\n<p>In a recent news, Nvidia has asked&nbsp;Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition&nbsp;of&nbsp;<b>Arm</b>. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.</p>\n<p>With focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.</p>\n<p><b>Target (TGT)</b></p>\n<p>TGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.</p>\n<p>UBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning&nbsp;becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.</p>\n<p>As the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding&nbsp;$2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.</p>\n<p>Target has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company&nbsp;reported comparable sales growth of 22.9%&nbsp;on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.</p>\n<p>Clearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.</p>\n<p>From a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.</p>\n<p>Overall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.</p>\n<p><b>Shopify (SHOP)</b></p>\n<p>SHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.</p>\n<p>For the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that&nbsp;monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.</p>\n<p>With the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has&nbsp;expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.</p>\n<p>As of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.</p>\n<p>Overall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.</p>\n<p><b>Apple (AAPL)</b></p>\n<p>AAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation.

But there are also fundamentally strong names where initiating a short position can be risky. These are the so called unshortable stocks.\nTrue, Short squeeze rallies have delivered multi-fold returns for investors.AMC Entertainment(NYSE:AMC) is the recent case of a short squeeze rally. However, this does not change the fact that some stocks are worth going short. It’s very likely that AMC stock will witness an equally sharp correction.\nThat’s not the case with unshortable stocks.\nMy focus is on four unshortable stocks where short interest as a percentage of free float is approximately 1%. Two of these stocks trade near all-time highs. The other two are in a consolidation mode and there seems to be a high probability of a breakout on the upside.\nThe reasons for these stocks being unshortable are strong fundamentals, high growth and strong cash flows. Additionally, there are ample positive business growth catalysts on the horizon.\nLet’s take a deeper look into the reasons that make these stocks unshortable.\n\nNvidia(NASDAQ:NVDA)\nTarget(NYSE:TGT)\nShopify(NYSE:SHOP)\nApple(NASDAQ:AAPL)\n\nNvidia (NVDA)\nNVDA stock is currently trading near 52-week highs. However, the short interest in the stock is just 1% of the free float. This is probably an indication of the point that NVDA stock is among the unshortable stocks.\nFrom a fundamental perspective, Nvidia has been on a high growth trajectory. For the first quarter of 2022, the company reported revenue growth of 84% to $5.66 billion. Growth was healthy in the gaming as well as data center segment.\nIn addition, Nvidia reported operating cash flow of $1.9 billion for the quarter. This would imply an annualized operating cash flow of nearly $8 billion. The company has high financial flexibility to invest in innovation and pursue inorganic growth.\nIn a recent news, Nvidia has asked Chinese regulators to approve the $40 billion acquisition of Arm. A possible approval in the coming quarters will ensure that the stock momentum remains positive.\nWith focus on artificial intelligence, Nvidia has also made inroads in multiple industries. This includes AI chips and solutions for robotics, self-driving and healthcare, among others. Therefore, with multiple growth catalysts, NVDA stock remains attractive.\nTarget (TGT)\nTGT stock is another name that I would include among unshortable stocks. The stock trades near all-time highs and looks good for further upside.\nUBS analyst Michael Lasser sees Target as “structurally improved as its strong positioning becomes even clearer in upcoming quarters.” Lasser has a price target of $265 for the stock.\nAs the U.S. economy witnesses wider reopening, Target is positioned to benefit. According to Moody’s Analytics, Americans were holding $2.6 trillion in excess savings as of mid-April. The possibility of a post-pandemic consumption boom is likely to be good news for Target, among other retailers.\nTarget has already been delivering stellar growth. For the first quarter, the company reported comparable sales growth of 22.9% on a year-on-year basis. Digital comparable sales growth was 50%.\nClearly, Target is emerging from the pandemic with superior omni-channel capabilities. Initiatives such as order pick-up, drive-up and same-day shipment services are likely to ensure that comparable sales growth remains strong.\nFrom a financial perspective, Target reported cash flows of $1.1 billion for the quarter. With more than $4 billion in annualized cash flow visibility, dividend and share repurchase will continue.\nOverall, TGT stock looks attractive considering the growth momentum. With an impending spending boom, it might be best to avoid shorting the stock.\nShopify (SHOP)\nSHOP stock seems to be trading at premium valuations. However, the stock has consolidated in the broad range of $1,000 to $1,200. Short interest is low and considering the company’s growth outlook, the stock is among the top unshortable stocks.\nFor the first quarter, Shopify reported revenue growth of 110% on a year-over-year basis to $988.6 million. An important point to note is that monthly recurring revenue accelerated by 62% to $89.9 million. With sustained growth in monthly recurring revenue, the company is positioned for robust long-term cash flows.\nWith the pandemic, e-commerce growth has accelerated globally. Shopify is likely to benefit from positive tailwinds in the coming years. It’s also worth noting that the company has expanded offerings for merchants. This includes Shopify Capital, Shopify Shipping and Shopify Plus. As merchants scale up, there is ample scope for revenue growth.\nAs of March, Shopify reported $7.87 billion in cash and equivalents. As the company expands globally, there is ample financial flexibility to invest in platform upgrade and new merchant solutions. As an example, the company recently introduced Shopify POS offering to merchants.\nOverall, SHOP stock looks attractive with strong top-line growth and clear visibility for robust cash flows in the long-term.\nApple (AAPL)\nAAPL stock is another name that too risky to bet against. The company has always surprised investors and it seems that the stock is positioned for a breakout after the current consolidation. With strong growth and a production innovation pipeline, it’s not surprising that short interest in AAPL stock is less than 1% of the free float.\nAs I write,Reuters reports that Apple is in talks with Chinese manufacturers for a car battery factory in the U.S. The company seems to be gradually working towards its first electric vehicle. That’s likely to keep the markets excited.\nApple has also witnessed strong growth in the wearables and services segment. Besides strong top-line growth, revenue is more diversified. At the same time, iPhone sales are likely to remain robust with 5G being a key growth driver.\nApple’s cash glut also implies sustained value creation through share repurchase and possibly higher dividends. Of course, the cash buffer gives the company ample headroom to invest in product innovation and possible acquisitions.\nOverall, as strong growth sustains, it’s too risky to short AAPL stock. On the contrary, current levels look attractive for considering some long-term exposure.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":64,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":122791683,"gmtCreate":1624632305742,"gmtModify":1703842332488,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/122791683","repostId":"2146023165","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146023165","pubTimestamp":1624614720,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2146023165?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-25 17:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft sent a strong signal to developers that could hurt Apple and Google","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146023165","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"Microsoft  launched a broadside against rivals Apple  and Google  on Thursday, announcing that the next version of Windows, called Windows 11, will feature an app store that lets developers keep 100% of the revenue from sales of their apps.That’s a massive departure from the policies Apple and Google have in place that require app developers who use their stores to pay 30% fees on the sale of apps and in-app purchases.“Windows has always stood for sovereignty for creators and agency for consumer","content":"<p>Microsoft (MSFT) launched a broadside against rivals Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG, GOOGL) on Thursday, announcing that the next version of Windows, called Windows 11, will feature an app store that lets developers keep 100% of the revenue from sales of their apps.</p>\n<p>That’s a massive departure from the policies Apple and Google have in place that require app developers who use their stores to pay 30% fees on the sale of apps and in-app purchases.</p>\n<p>“Windows has always stood for sovereignty for creators and agency for consumers,” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said. “A platform can only serve society if its rules allow for this foundational innovation and category creation.

Clean energy stocks are down roughly 20% this year on an absolute basis, while energy, commodities, defense and tobacco stocks have all outperformed. This sharp contrast comes despite flows into ESG funds continuing at a record pace.\nRising prices will likely continue to pose a significant challenge for ESG funds in particular, Bernstein said, but added that there are a number of ways for these investors to lower their risk exposure.\nIn a note published June 10, Bernstein screened for ESG stocks in the U.S., Europe and Asia that are best positioned for rising inflation.\nBernstein screened for the stocks by considering three ways that sustainable investors could brace for a rising inflationary environment:\n1. Seeking out high-scoring ESG stocks that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.\n2. Investing in high-scoring ESG stocks which have robust pricing power.\n3. Identifying companies that have increased exposure to the energy, commodities and financials sectors.\nIn considering stocks that should be in an ESG portfolio, Bernstein recognized that investors may struggle to prioritize so-called “sin” stocks, such as energy and commodity companies, although these “value” stocks usually perform well when inflation and bond yields rise. Value stocks are seen as being underappreciated by the market.\nBernstein also highlighted that financials tend to be left on the sidelines by ESG investors, since measuring their environmental credentials can be tricky.\nU.S.\nThe analysts said that U.S. ESG funds are “not that well positioned” for inflation because they tend to be underweight on so-called value stocks. The bank did, however, single outState Street,LearandBank of New York Mellonamong its top picks of those positively exposed to rising bond yields. The three U.S. firms were found to score in the top quintile on “environment,” according to data from Sustainalytics, and had a positive correlation with U.S. 10-year bond yields over the past 12 months.\nHome Depot,Adobe,PepsiCo were named by Bernstein as being among the stocks with the highest pricing power and ESG scores.\nEurope\nESG funds in Europe were found to be particularly exposed to rising inflation and the bank said tighter constraints and regulations on sustainability made lowering inflation risk more difficult than in other regions.\nNonetheless,ING,EniandTotalEnergieswere picked out among the region’s high-scoring ESG stocks within industries that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.Neste,Norsk HydroandKingfisherwere all cited as top picks when it comes to strong pricing power and high ESG scores, the analysts at Bernstein said.\nAsia\nAsian ESG funds are better positioned than their counterparts in the U.S. and Europe, the bank said. This is likely to reflect the fact that ESG investing is still in an early stage in the region and many investors are predominantly focused on environmental issues rather than fully integrating social and governance considerations, the bank said.\nAmong the bank’s high-scoring “improver” stocks in the region that are positively exposed to rising U.S. bond yields areMelco Resorts,Trip.comandAdani Ports and Special Economic Zone.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":120029462,"gmtCreate":1624288970656,"gmtModify":1703832650623,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/120029462","repostId":"2145084835","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145084835","pubTimestamp":1624280460,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2145084835?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 21:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Ultra-Popular Stocks Wall Street Views as Overvalued","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145084835","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"If analysts are correct, these high-flying stocks will fizzle out over the next year.","content":"<p>Generally speaking, it pays to be bullish on Wall Street. Despite navigating its way through Black Monday in 1987, the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and more recently the coronavirus crash, the average annual total return for the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> since 1980, including dividends, is north of 11%.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, we see this optimism readily apparent in Wall Street's ratings on stocks. According to <b>FactSet</b>, more than half of all stocks carry a consensus buy rating, 38% have the equivalent of a hold rating, and just 7% are rated as sells. Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.</p>\n<p>Based on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b04ade705354c4825038c4dfcd0187d9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Palantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%</h3>\n<p>Since its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.</p>\n<p>The likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.</p>\n<p>Another possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a38605bee8e62f3e8aa414fa24278e7e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Moderna: Implied downside of 11%</h3>\n<p>Biotech stock <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.</p>\n<p>Why the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.</p>\n<p>The other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.</p>\n<p>Based solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07841e6a8173146a0fbfddf95a0f1ccb\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>GameStop: Implied downside of 71%</h3>\n<p>This will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it <i>still</i> implies up to 71% downside over the next year.</p>\n<p>The biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.</p>\n<p>Although the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.</p>\n<p>With sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7ff785aa0040a5565d474390f58b47a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"457\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Ocugen: Implied downside of 18%</h3>\n<p>Volatile clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Ocugen</b> (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.</p>\n<p>Arguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.</p>\n<p>What's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.</p>\n<p>Though it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91f6037829ea3fb0ae1cae0b95d8d11e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>NVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%</h3>\n<p>Don't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says <b>NVIDIA</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.</p>\n<p>One reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade. If another lull strikes, a fast-growing ancillary segment for NVIDA could easily become a drag.</p>\n<p>For what it's worth, I see no fundamental reasons to sell NVIDIA if you're already a long-term shareholder. But if you're on the outside looking in, I don't exactly see $746 as an attractive entry point, either.</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>5 Ultra-Popular Stocks Wall Street Views as Overvalued</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 Ultra-Popular Stocks Wall Street Views as Overvalued\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-21 21:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/21/5-ultra-popular-stocks-wall-street-view-overvalued/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Generally speaking, it pays to be bullish on Wall Street.

Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.\nBased on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPalantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%\nSince its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's one-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.\nThe likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.\nAnother possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.\nOver the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nModerna: Implied downside of 11%\nBiotech stock Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's one of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.\nWhy the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.\nThe other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.\nBased solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nGameStop: Implied downside of 71%\nThis will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite GameStop (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it still implies up to 71% downside over the next year.\nThe biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.\nAlthough the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.\nWith sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nOcugen: Implied downside of 18%\nVolatile clinical-stage biotech stock Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.\nArguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.\nWhat's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.\nThough it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%\nDon't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.\nOne reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.\nPerhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade. If another lull strikes, a fast-growing ancillary segment for NVIDA could easily become a drag.\nFor what it's worth, I see no fundamental reasons to sell NVIDIA if you're already a long-term shareholder. But if you're on the outside looking in, I don't exactly see $746 as an attractive entry point, either.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":107,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":161386894,"gmtCreate":1623905225518,"gmtModify":1703823171504,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/161386894","repostId":"1151875977","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1151875977","pubTimestamp":1623900744,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1151875977?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 11:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Snowflake: A Very Aggressive Bet On The Future Of The Data Cloud","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1151875977","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nSnowflake has only recently started to recover after the long decline from an all time high","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Snowflake has only recently started to recover after the long decline from an all time high of $429 that occurred within the December 8 market session.</li>\n <li>Snowflake created the concept of the Data Cloud which allows organizations to unify and connect to a single copy of all of their data with ease.</li>\n <li>Every Snowflake account is capable of sharing data in the Snowflake Data Marketplace, which is a concept that is very early on in its lifecycle.</li>\n <li>During&nbsp;Investor Day on June 10, Snowflake revealed plans to reach $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 (FY29)&nbsp;with a long-term operating margin target of 10%.</li>\n <li>Snowflake is a buy but only for very aggressive investors as the valuation assumes a lot of growth.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d4f629e0a3038cb93bd57cccce00547d\" tg-width=\"768\" tg-height=\"432\"><span>metamorworks/iStock via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>Last September, Snowflake (NASDAQ:SNOW) began life as a public company after&nbsp;the largest software IPO in history. Snowflake was at the time of its IPO, a unprofitable software company, which is why it was interesting that Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) , which normally eschews investing in software or cloud companies actually wound up&nbsp;investing $735 million or 6.1 million Snowflake shares at the $120 IPO price.</p>\n<p>On September 18, 2020, CEO Frank Slootman,in an interview, disclosed that Berkshire's insurance unit has been using Snowflake's services for quite awhile and that might be part of the reason that Berkshire was comfortable enough to invest in Snowflake's stock. The Slootman interview also disclosed that Snowflake's interactions with Berkshire have been through Todd Combs, the CEO of Berkshire holding GEICO. Since Todd Combs also serves as a Berkshire investment manager, he is probably the one directly responsible for the Snowflake investment and not Buffett.</p>\n<p>Salesforce Ventures (NYSE:CRM)&nbsp;also decided to make an investment&nbsp;of more than $500 million in the company at the IPO, as a play on digital transformation and long term cloud adoption. Snowflake's stock soared in the months following its IPO, partially due to investors being interested in the fastest growing of all the fast growing digital transformation plays and partially due to Snowflake receiving the seal of approval from both Berkshire and Salesforce.</p>\n<p>Snowflake finally ended up reached an all time high of $429.00 within the December 8th market session, at which point Snowflake was selling for 245x Sales and was already being called \"The Most Highly Valued Large Cap Company in History\".</p>\n<p>Eventually, due to&nbsp;fears of rising interest rates and inflation, investors began losing enthusiasm for stocks selling at high valuations and nervous investors have since sold Snowflake's stock down to the point where it had reached all time lows of $184.71 per share on May 13. Since, then the stock has risen slightly over 30% and the question now becomes for investors, \"Is Snowflake a buy at current prices, even though, the company still sells for around 85X sales?\"</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/324a101dce1df05ccb338b782dd193d3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>This article will go through some of the reasons why many investors are still very infatuated with Snowflake and also go through recent earnings, as well as explain why I consider Snowflake a buy for very aggressive investors.</p>\n<p><b>Snowflake CEO Frank Slootman</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake was founded in July 2012 by two former Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) engineers Benoit Dageville and Thierry Cruanes, along with Marcin Żukowski, co-founder of the Dutch start-up Vectorwise. The first CEO of Snowflake was Mike Speiser, a venture capitalist at Sutter Hill Ventures. In June 2014, Snowflake appointed former Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) executive Bob Muglia as CEO, as the company emerged from stealth mode.</p>\n<p>In May 2019, the company decided to change the leadership team again to Frank Slootman, the retired former CEO of ServiceNow (NASDAQ:NOW), who joined Snowflake as its CEO and Michael Scarpelli, the former CFO of ServiceNow who joined Snowflake as CFO.</p>\n<p>In an&nbsp;article Beth Kindig wrote for Forbes&nbsp;near the date of the IPO, she indicated that the change of CEOs from Bob Muglia to Frank Slootman likely occurred because of pressure from private investors that wanted leadership from someone that had a proven track record of showing that they could grow an enterprise tech company very quickly and who also could make a successful profitable exit for investors in an IPO. Investors got that type of CEO in Frank Slootman, who has a type of \"Rockstar\" status among CEOs.</p>\n<blockquote>\n “He’s one of the most impressive, most accomplished, most respected CEOs in enterprise tech,” said Asheem Chandna, a software investor at Greylock Partners, which invested in the first two companies Slootman took public, Data Domain (later acquired by EMC and now part ofDell) and ServiceNow. “He’s a take-no-prisoners leader. He can point at a hill and inspire the entire team to follow him to take the hill.”\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:CNBC\n</blockquote>\n<p>Frank Slootman already had a rich history that involved turning around a company called Data Domain, which was detailed in his book “TAPE SUCKS: Inside Data Domain, A Silicon Valley Growth Story”. When Slootman first took over Data Domain in 2003, the company had no customers, no revenues, and was a few months away from bankruptcy. In six years, Slootman grew Data Domain to the point where it was selling more than all of its competitors combined. Slootman then successfully sold the company to EMC (NYSE:DELL) in 2009 for $2.1 billion and the&nbsp;Data Domain product line has been Dell EMC's flagship platform&nbsp;for backup, archive and disaster recovery ever since.</p>\n<p>Two years later, Slootman took over the CEO role of ServiceNow between 2011 to 2017. Part of Slootman's accomplishments at ServiceNow was guiding the company to a 2012 IPO.</p>\n<p>For individuals that think that&nbsp;the role of the CEO is essential for a company's success, Snowflake has perhaps one of the best CEOs in the tech sector and the presence of CEO Frank Slootman alone, should be reason enough to consider Snowflake as an investment.</p>\n<p><b>The Data Cloud</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake is a cloud native company that offers unlimited storage and compute in the cloud in a manner designed to be flexible and convenient for companies. Snowflake was built with the purpose of replacing legacy&nbsp;data warehouses. The Snowflake platform is essentially a complete redesign and reimagining of data warehouse architecture and technology</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f08eef11f814a575de7b02b82c5f49bb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"176\"><span>Source:Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"</span></p>\n<p></p>\n<p>The problem with how many companies handle data today, is that they have what is known as a&nbsp;siloed data&nbsp;problem. Siloed data simply means that the same information is often stored in different databases, leading to inconsistencies between data located in different parts of the company. Siloed data also often makes it difficult to join data to gain new insights or have the ability to act quickly on any new data.</p>\n<p>Snowflake gives company's the ability to join all of their data together and eliminate discrepancies between data from different sources, and reduce&nbsp;data latency. With joined data and reduced data latency, comes the ability for companies to use new incoming data quickly and this is a huge driver for Snowflake's business. When companies become Snowflake customers, they often find that what used to take hours or days to go through data now only takes minutes.</p>\n<p>With Snowflake's innovations, data is now moving from an era of simply informing people to driving operations right as the information signals come in with very little latency. No more will important business decisions be done with only anecdotal observation. Business decisions will increasingly be data driven. That is what digital transformation actually means for a business.</p>\n<p>Every business, in order to survive will eventually have to digitally transform and Snowflake is becoming an essential building block for digital transformation. The&nbsp;<b>Data Cloud</b>is the building block of digital transformation and Snowflake is evolving to become the largest independent&nbsp;<b>Data Cloud</b>.</p>\n<p><b>Data Sharing</b></p>\n<p>Anyone that has a Snowflake account is capable of sharing data. Data sharing is about to become an additional important business for Snowflake. Snowflake has already built a Data Marketplace and is on the verge of starting to really monetize it. Just recently,Snowflake announced&nbsp;that it was accelerating data collaboration with more than 500 Listings in the Snowflake Data Marketplace.</p>\n<p>Business will be able to search for what data is being offered on the Data Marketplace with some of the data offers being for free and some data offers for pay. The Snowflake management team expects that in the future, data networking will become frictionless and that today, we are on the beginning edges of a true data exchange network application.</p>\n<p>Snowflake expects data sharing to become a big part of their business moving forward and eventually a big part of any future moat because data sharing can translate into powerful&nbsp;network effects, in that the more businesses use the data sharing through Snowflake's market, the more valuable the Snowflake Data Market will become.</p>\n<p><b>Snowflake Architecture</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f8ac65aba89c4df78926d8b9684c24d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"363\"><span>Source:Snowflake Presentationtitled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8494b11b7683d8c1c9aa35501c234e01\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"439\"><span>Source:Snowflake User Guide</span></p>\n<p>Snowflake’s novel design consists of three components:</p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Storage</b>: the persistent storage layer for data stored on Snowflake</li>\n <li><b>Compute</b>: a collection of independent compute resources that execute data processing tasks required for queries. Snowflake also describes this compute as virtual warehouses.</li>\n <li><b>Services</b>: a collection of system services that handle infrastructure, security, metadata, and optimization across the entire Snowflake system</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Snowflake has a decoupled architecture that allows for compute and storage to scale separately. The database storage can be provided from any cloud provider that the customer chooses.</p>\n<p>Query processing or compute takes place in what Snowflake calls virtual warehouses. To simplify things for people that are not data experts, a&nbsp;<b>query</b>&nbsp;is a request for data&nbsp;or information from a database table or combination of tables. Query processing is simply using the compute resources to perform a search for data.</p>\n<p>Snowflake uses massively parallel processing or MPP, in the compute/virtual warehouse setup to process queries.Massively parallel processing&nbsp;is a form of collaborative processing of the same program by two or more processors or in this case virtual warehouses. The advantage of using MPP in the virtual warehouse setup is that the virtual warehouses can access the storage layer independently so as not to compete for compute power.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's virtual warehouses have the ability to access any of the databases in the database storage layer to which they have been granted access, and these virtual warehouses can be created, resized and deleted dynamically as resource needs change. When virtual warehouses execute queries, they transparently and automatically cache data from the database storage layer. Snowflake has the advantage of being able to dynamically bring together the storage, compute and services layers, delivering exactly the resources needed exactly when they are needed, meaning that under a multitude of different usage scenarios, Snowflake is able to dynamically create the right balance of IO, memory, CPU, etc.</p>\n<p>Traditional data warehouse, on the other hand, will often tightly couple the storage, compute, and database services. The disadvantage of doing this is there are performance limitations as the number of workloads and users increase, meaning such a configuration is not very scalable.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's competitors, such as Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Redshift, for instance, can be disadvantaged when having the compute and storage so tightly coupled, because more often than not more time must be spent manually reconfiguring things, which is a disadvantage.</p>\n<p>One of Snowflake’s&nbsp;unique value propositions&nbsp;is the company’s relatively flexible business model compared to its peers. Snowflake touts this ability on its website:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Whether you’re a business or technology professional, get the performance, flexibility, and near-infinite scalability to easily load, integrate, analyze and securely share your data.”\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:Snowflake\n</blockquote>\n<p>Snowflake's virtual data warehouse setup where workloads share the same data but can run independently, makes it easier for customers to run smaller workloads. Snowflake management calls this the ability to scale down. When a company joins Snowflake, it does not require a big upfront commitment like it might with other companies. Snowflake allows customers to fully customize their services with an ability to scale down to whatever level is needed. Companies only have to pay for the services they need, instead of having to pay for big bulked up packages containing unnecessary services.</p>\n<p>Snowflake’s competitors, on the other hand, often combine compute, storage and services, then require customers to size and pay based on the largest workload, which can make some data warehouses completely unaffordable or inefficient for some companies.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's documentation&nbsp;claims that the Snowflake data platform is not built on any existing database technology or “big data” software platforms such as&nbsp;Hadoop. Instead, Snowflake combines a completely new SQL query engine with an innovative database architecture natively designed for the cloud. This database and query engine helps Snowflake perform faster queries with fewer errors and costs over competitors.</p>\n<p>I don't want this explanation to get too technical for those not familiar with databases, storage or how the cloud works, so for those that want a more technical explanation of Snowflake's architecture, they can read Snowflake's&nbsp;documentation. or read a&nbsp;Snowflake Presentation&nbsp;titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\".</p>\n<p><b>C3 AI and Snowflake Partner</b></p>\n<p>Before going through earnings, I wanted to highlight&nbsp;some very recent news&nbsp;of a new collaboration between C3.ai (NYSE:AI) and Snowflake. C3 AI is an enterprise AI software provider that provides a suite that provides comprehensive services to build enterprise-scale AI applications more efficiently and cost-effectively than alternative approaches.</p>\n<p>This partnership will give companies that currently use Snowflake access to the C3 AI® Suite and pre-built C3 AI applications that include a range of industries and enterprise AI use cases, including AI-based CRM, predictive maintenance, supply network optimization, and fraud detection.</p>\n<blockquote>\n C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi, said the partnership \"will create significant time and operational efficiencies for Snowflake's customers and solidify Snowflake as the operational data platform of choice for enterprise AI applications.\"\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi -ZDNet\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Snowflake Q1 FY 2022 Earnings</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake's Q1 FY 2022 remaining performance obligations or RPO was $1.4 billion, representing 206% year-over-year growth. The RPO results reflected more multimillion-dollar relationships with particular strength in the telecom and technology sectors. Of the $1.4 billion in RPO, Snowflake expects approximately 54% to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>Snowflake defines RPO in its&nbsp;earnings press release&nbsp;as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods.</p>\n<p>RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears.<b>RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity</b>.</p>\n<p>At the end of Q1, Snowflake had 4,532 total customers. The total number reflects the addition of 393 net new customers in Q1, including three seven-figure new customers. Several of these customer wins might be recognizable names to investors that include Datadog (NASDAQ:DDOG) and Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) and Equifax (NYSE:EFX).</p>\n<p>Snowflake management has stated that they have a strong interest in penetrating more of the largest enterprises globally because they provide the largest opportunity for account expansion. On that note, Snowflake now has 104 customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, up from 77 last quarter. CFO Michael Scarpelli had some interesting things to say about Snowflake expanding with large customers that shows why the company's products are gaining fans among large enterprises</p>\n<blockquote>\n When we expand within our largest customers, we typically replace more than one solution. In many cases, we replace on-premise and first-generation cloud solutions, and we address new workloads.\n <b>Snowflake creates use cases that were previously impossible</b>. This is what fuels our 168% net revenue retention rate, and we remain confident that our net revenue retention will stay above 160% for the fiscal year.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n</blockquote>\n<p>Snowflake's&nbsp;net revenue retention rate of 168% is probably the best&nbsp;number in the SaaS world. Snowflake calculates their net retention number by first specifying a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from the current period end. Next, Snowflake defines the measurement cohort as the population of customers under capacity contracts that used the platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The net revenue retention is then defined as the quotient obtained by dividing the product revenue from the cohort in the second year of the measurement period by the product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period.</p>\n<p>So a net retention rate of 168% means that the customer cohort that spent $100 on average in the first year of the measurement period on the Snowflake platform is spending on average $168 in the second year of the measurement period.. Any customer in the cohort that did not use the platform in the second year remains in the calculation and simply contributes zero product revenue in the second year.</p>\n<p>Snowflake grew product and total revenues grew 110% year over year to $229 million. Product revenue grew to $214 million, reflecting strength in Snowflake consumption. Product revenue is a key metric for Snowflake because revenue is recognized based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at the customers discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Professional services and other revenue was 15 million.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b09f8c93a8df1f1ad6663d3c88240f18\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>As explained in Snowflake's&nbsp;Q1 FY2022 earnings release, product revenue primarily includes compute, storage, and data transfer resources, which are consumed by customers on Snowflake's platform as a single, integrated offering. Snowflake customers have the ability to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally on the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's consumption-based business model distinguishes the company from subscription-based SaaS companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover of services. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, Snowflake believes that the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from the platform.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbf138441130b474d888f2b8c3b6a14d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Snowflake's Cost of Sales was $97.35 million. Snowflake's overall Gross Profit rose 98.6% to $131.57 million. Overall Gross Margins were 57.47% and on a non-GAAP basis, Snowflake's<b>product</b>gross margin was 72%, up from 66% in the comparable quarter last year<b>.</b></p>\n<p>Favorable cloud service agreements, growing scale across different regions and Snowflake's enterprise customer's success all contributed to steady product gross margin improvements. Management also indicated during the earnings call that in the long term, the product gross margin number could trend upward into the mid 70’s with the help of improved data storage economics. The recent changes to Snowflake’s storage representation of data have resulted in better data compression and reduced storage costs, which help the gross margin.</p>\n<blockquote>\n And the way it [Data Compression] improves margin is because storage becomes more efficient. Storage is a smaller component of the overall mix of the revenue, and compute is the real value of our software that drives more margin. And I will say we did roll this out in April, and you do see some of that coming into an impact on last quarter. But we did say at our IPO, if you remember, we thought we could get to the mid-70s [in product gross margins]. That might feel very good that we'll get to the mid-70s.

Some analysts like Patrick Colville of Deutsche Bank think&nbsp;guidance is conservative&nbsp;because it implies that Snowflake would only capture about 12% of the $86B data warehouse market estimated for FY29.</p>\n<p>That all goes to show that there are already enormous growth expectations built into this stock because $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 is a fairly ambitious goal.</p>\n<p>One other interesting part of the presentation was that the CFO raised the total addressable market for Snowflake to $90 billion, up from the $81 billion used for the roadshow for the IPO.</p>\n<p><b>Competitors</b></p>\n<p>In addition to database warehouses Druid and Dremio, Snowflake's strongest competitors appear to be the big data warehouse systems from the major cloud players like Amazon's Redshift, Microsoft Azure's Synapse, and Google's Big Query.</p>\n<p>Amazon, Microsoft and Google are all choosing to compete against Snowflake's new ideas in database warehouses by using the time honored tactic of trying to copy as many of Snowflake's features as possible..</p>\n<p>The advantage that Snowflake has over Amazon, Microsoft and Google in those companies trying to play copycat is that those database warehouses don't scale as well across different data sources (namely competing cloud storage services) and the major cloud players are not fully independent database warehouse providers, meaning that in the end, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are trying to lock customers in to as many of their bundled cloud services as possible. Snowflake doesn't care what cloud service a customer uses for services like storage, as Snowflake is truly neutral in the cloud wars, which is very desirable in a&nbsp;multi-cloud world.</p>\n<p>Of all the competitors, Google Big Query is currently the closest competitor to what Snowflake is doing as it also separates storage and compute. The biggest differences between Snowflake and BigQuery comes down to&nbsp;pricing and performance. Beth Kindig, in her article about Snowflake said this about Snowflake vs Big Query:</p>\n<blockquote>\n When it comes to deciding between BigQuery and Snowflake, it can come down to what you do with the database due to pricing structure differences. For instance, Snowflake is a better choice for concurrent users and business intelligence. It’s also a great choice for data-as-a-service, where you might give client access to your data in the form of analytics. BigQuery is perhaps a better choice for ad hoc reporting, where you have occasional complex reports on a quarterly basis or recommendation models and machine learning that require high idle time. Again, these examples are mainly due to pricing structure.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: Beth Kindig -Forbes article\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake has significant valuation risk, even with the pullback in the stock price from its highs in December. For Snowflake to expand its valuation any further, it is going to require the company to continue posting outstanding growth numbers.</p>\n<p>Secondarily, Snowflake currently only offers their platform on the public clouds provided by AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are also some of the company's primary competitors. Currently, a substantial majority of Snowflake's business is run on the AWS public cloud.</p>\n<p>So, while Snowflake has some competitive advantages over a cloud giant like AWS, there is a risk that AWS or one of the other cloud giants could use the control of their public cloud to embed innovations for competing offerings to Snowflake or bundle competing products together with other cloud services or leverage their public cloud customer relationships to exclude Snowflake from opportunities. The reason why this risk might not play out in the cloud giants favor is that it appears companies are&nbsp;favoring multi-cloud approaches&nbsp;and have little desire in being locked into only one cloud by a bundled product. That is where Snowflake's Switzerland neutral status in the cloud wars provides some protection but not total protection from this risk.</p>\n<p>On another note, though, because the three major cloud players also provides much of the infrastructure for Snowflake's business model, in the future it is completely possible that Snowflake could face the risk of unfavorable pricing for the use of the underlying cloud infrastructure, which could hurt Snowflake's margins.</p>\n<p>Snowflake could also undergo pricing pressure on the services offered to customers, as a company like Amazon could do something like offer discount pricing for competing services to customers and that scenario could also threaten Snowflake's margins over the longer term. Amazon has been known to use that strategy in other areas of their business in the past.</p>\n<p>Another risk is regulatory. Snowflake must comply with evolving privacy and other data related laws. The requirements for following those laws could be expensive and force the company to make adverse changes to the business, with failure to comply with such laws not being much of an option. Examples of these types of laws are General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).</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><p>Salesforce</p><p>(CRM)</p></td>\n   <td>$222.53B</td>\n   <td>10.30</td>\n   <td>51.27%</td>\n   <td>8.1</td>\n   <td>22.57%</td>\n   <td>73.92%</td>\n   <td>5.96B</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Snowflake (SNOW)</td>\n   <td>$71.25B</td>\n   <td>87.93</td>\n   <td>1.09%</td>\n   <td>60.4</td>\n   <td>110.4%</td>\n   <td>57.47%</td>\n   <td>228.9M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Okta (OKTA)</td>\n   <td>$34.63B</td>\n   <td>32.59</td>\n   <td>20.99%</td>\n   <td>27.6</td>\n   <td>37.27%</td>\n   <td>73.66%</td>\n   <td>$251M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>MongoDB (MDB)</td>\n   <td>$20.76B</td>\n   <td>32.36</td>\n   <td>5.28%</td>\n   <td>26.8</td>\n   <td>39.38%</td>\n   <td>69.98%</td>\n   <td>$181.7M</td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Teradata (TDC)</td>\n   <td>$5.23B</td>\n   <td>2.76</td>\n   <td>21.38%</td>\n   <td>2.7</td>\n   <td>13.13%</td>\n   <td>62.53%</td>\n   <td>491M</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Two things are very obvious about the above company comparisons. One is that Snowflake, even with substantial pullback from its all time highs in December is very highly valued on a Price to Sales basis. Second, is that Snowflake was still growing triple digits in the latest quarter, which is pretty amazing.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, investors were not impressed by the guidance given during earnings, nor were they impressed by Snowflake's long term projections given during their recent Investor Day. One thing is for sure, for investors to bid Snowflake's stock up further, the company will have to keep producingmind boggling growth numbers.</p>\n<p>The following is based on 26 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Snowflake in the last 3 months. The average price target is $292.12 with a high forecast of $515.00 and a low forecast of $240.60. The average price target represents a 21.41% from the last price of $240.60.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/007fe75a78c7835e52d8edf8bc7f6bed\" tg-width=\"499\" tg-height=\"405\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake is a stock that has very high expectations built into the stock price. The latest earnings and guidance, plus the latest investor day were not enough to get investors excited about pushing the value of the stock much further than it is now.</p>\n<p>However, I think that with a company like Snowflake, one has to take a much longer view than simply looking at one quarter's metrics. I believe it is appropriate to take at least a five year view with this company to see that the future is likely very bright. I believe Snowflake is being very conservative with their long term projections given during Investor Day and if that should prove to be the case, we all might look back several years from now and see with the benefit of hindsight that the stock was actually undervalued.</p>\n<p>I believe that the idea of a Data Cloud and a Data Marketplace are very, very early in the product life cycle and that Snowflake is at the beginning of a strong run of customer and revenue growth over the next several years. Snowflake is a buy but only for&nbsp;<b>veryaggressive investors</b>&nbsp;because there is already a lot of growth embedded in Snowflake's valuation and if the company fails to produce that expected growth, then the stock could drop rapidly.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Snowflake was at the time of its IPO, a unprofitable software company, which is why it was interesting that Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) , which normally eschews investing in software or cloud companies actually wound up investing $735 million or 6.1 million Snowflake shares at the $120 IPO price.\nOn September 18, 2020, CEO Frank Slootman,in an interview, disclosed that Berkshire's insurance unit has been using Snowflake's services for quite awhile and that might be part of the reason that Berkshire was comfortable enough to invest in Snowflake's stock. The Slootman interview also disclosed that Snowflake's interactions with Berkshire have been through Todd Combs, the CEO of Berkshire holding GEICO. Since Todd Combs also serves as a Berkshire investment manager, he is probably the one directly responsible for the Snowflake investment and not Buffett.\nSalesforce Ventures (NYSE:CRM) also decided to make an investment of more than $500 million in the company at the IPO, as a play on digital transformation and long term cloud adoption. Snowflake's stock soared in the months following its IPO, partially due to investors being interested in the fastest growing of all the fast growing digital transformation plays and partially due to Snowflake receiving the seal of approval from both Berkshire and Salesforce.\nSnowflake finally ended up reached an all time high of $429.00 within the December 8th market session, at which point Snowflake was selling for 245x Sales and was already being called \"The Most Highly Valued Large Cap Company in History\".\nEventually, due to fears of rising interest rates and inflation, investors began losing enthusiasm for stocks selling at high valuations and nervous investors have since sold Snowflake's stock down to the point where it had reached all time lows of $184.71 per share on May 13. Since, then the stock has risen slightly over 30% and the question now becomes for investors, \"Is Snowflake a buy at current prices, even though, the company still sells for around 85X sales?\"\nData by YCharts\nThis article will go through some of the reasons why many investors are still very infatuated with Snowflake and also go through recent earnings, as well as explain why I consider Snowflake a buy for very aggressive investors.\nSnowflake CEO Frank Slootman\nSnowflake was founded in July 2012 by two former Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) engineers Benoit Dageville and Thierry Cruanes, along with Marcin Żukowski, co-founder of the Dutch start-up Vectorwise. The first CEO of Snowflake was Mike Speiser, a venture capitalist at Sutter Hill Ventures. In June 2014, Snowflake appointed former Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) executive Bob Muglia as CEO, as the company emerged from stealth mode.\nIn May 2019, the company decided to change the leadership team again to Frank Slootman, the retired former CEO of ServiceNow (NASDAQ:NOW), who joined Snowflake as its CEO and Michael Scarpelli, the former CFO of ServiceNow who joined Snowflake as CFO.\nIn an article Beth Kindig wrote for Forbes near the date of the IPO, she indicated that the change of CEOs from Bob Muglia to Frank Slootman likely occurred because of pressure from private investors that wanted leadership from someone that had a proven track record of showing that they could grow an enterprise tech company very quickly and who also could make a successful profitable exit for investors in an IPO. Investors got that type of CEO in Frank Slootman, who has a type of \"Rockstar\" status among CEOs.\n\n “He’s one of the most impressive, most accomplished, most respected CEOs in enterprise tech,” said Asheem Chandna, a software investor at Greylock Partners, which invested in the first two companies Slootman took public, Data Domain (later acquired by EMC and now part ofDell) and ServiceNow. “He’s a take-no-prisoners leader. He can point at a hill and inspire the entire team to follow him to take the hill.”\n\n\n Source:CNBC\n\nFrank Slootman already had a rich history that involved turning around a company called Data Domain, which was detailed in his book “TAPE SUCKS: Inside Data Domain, A Silicon Valley Growth Story”. When Slootman first took over Data Domain in 2003, the company had no customers, no revenues, and was a few months away from bankruptcy. In six years, Slootman grew Data Domain to the point where it was selling more than all of its competitors combined. Slootman then successfully sold the company to EMC (NYSE:DELL) in 2009 for $2.1 billion and the Data Domain product line has been Dell EMC's flagship platform for backup, archive and disaster recovery ever since.\nTwo years later, Slootman took over the CEO role of ServiceNow between 2011 to 2017. Part of Slootman's accomplishments at ServiceNow was guiding the company to a 2012 IPO.\nFor individuals that think that the role of the CEO is essential for a company's success, Snowflake has perhaps one of the best CEOs in the tech sector and the presence of CEO Frank Slootman alone, should be reason enough to consider Snowflake as an investment.\nThe Data Cloud\nSnowflake is a cloud native company that offers unlimited storage and compute in the cloud in a manner designed to be flexible and convenient for companies. Snowflake was built with the purpose of replacing legacy data warehouses. The Snowflake platform is essentially a complete redesign and reimagining of data warehouse architecture and technology\nSource:Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"\n\nThe problem with how many companies handle data today, is that they have what is known as a siloed data problem. Siloed data simply means that the same information is often stored in different databases, leading to inconsistencies between data located in different parts of the company. Siloed data also often makes it difficult to join data to gain new insights or have the ability to act quickly on any new data.\nSnowflake gives company's the ability to join all of their data together and eliminate discrepancies between data from different sources, and reduce data latency. With joined data and reduced data latency, comes the ability for companies to use new incoming data quickly and this is a huge driver for Snowflake's business. When companies become Snowflake customers, they often find that what used to take hours or days to go through data now only takes minutes.\nWith Snowflake's innovations, data is now moving from an era of simply informing people to driving operations right as the information signals come in with very little latency. No more will important business decisions be done with only anecdotal observation. Business decisions will increasingly be data driven. That is what digital transformation actually means for a business.\nEvery business, in order to survive will eventually have to digitally transform and Snowflake is becoming an essential building block for digital transformation. The Data Cloudis the building block of digital transformation and Snowflake is evolving to become the largest independent Data Cloud.\nData Sharing\nAnyone that has a Snowflake account is capable of sharing data. Data sharing is about to become an additional important business for Snowflake. Snowflake has already built a Data Marketplace and is on the verge of starting to really monetize it. Just recently,Snowflake announced that it was accelerating data collaboration with more than 500 Listings in the Snowflake Data Marketplace.\nBusiness will be able to search for what data is being offered on the Data Marketplace with some of the data offers being for free and some data offers for pay. The Snowflake management team expects that in the future, data networking will become frictionless and that today, we are on the beginning edges of a true data exchange network application.\nSnowflake expects data sharing to become a big part of their business moving forward and eventually a big part of any future moat because data sharing can translate into powerful network effects, in that the more businesses use the data sharing through Snowflake's market, the more valuable the Snowflake Data Market will become.\nSnowflake Architecture\nSource:Snowflake Presentationtitled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\"\nSource:Snowflake User Guide\nSnowflake’s novel design consists of three components:\n\nStorage: the persistent storage layer for data stored on Snowflake\nCompute: a collection of independent compute resources that execute data processing tasks required for queries. Snowflake also describes this compute as virtual warehouses.\nServices: a collection of system services that handle infrastructure, security, metadata, and optimization across the entire Snowflake system\n\nSnowflake has a decoupled architecture that allows for compute and storage to scale separately. The database storage can be provided from any cloud provider that the customer chooses.\nQuery processing or compute takes place in what Snowflake calls virtual warehouses. To simplify things for people that are not data experts, a query is a request for data or information from a database table or combination of tables. Query processing is simply using the compute resources to perform a search for data.\nSnowflake uses massively parallel processing or MPP, in the compute/virtual warehouse setup to process queries.Massively parallel processing is a form of collaborative processing of the same program by two or more processors or in this case virtual warehouses. The advantage of using MPP in the virtual warehouse setup is that the virtual warehouses can access the storage layer independently so as not to compete for compute power.\nSnowflake's virtual warehouses have the ability to access any of the databases in the database storage layer to which they have been granted access, and these virtual warehouses can be created, resized and deleted dynamically as resource needs change. When virtual warehouses execute queries, they transparently and automatically cache data from the database storage layer. Snowflake has the advantage of being able to dynamically bring together the storage, compute and services layers, delivering exactly the resources needed exactly when they are needed, meaning that under a multitude of different usage scenarios, Snowflake is able to dynamically create the right balance of IO, memory, CPU, etc.\nTraditional data warehouse, on the other hand, will often tightly couple the storage, compute, and database services. The disadvantage of doing this is there are performance limitations as the number of workloads and users increase, meaning such a configuration is not very scalable.\nSnowflake's competitors, such as Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Redshift, for instance, can be disadvantaged when having the compute and storage so tightly coupled, because more often than not more time must be spent manually reconfiguring things, which is a disadvantage.\nOne of Snowflake’s unique value propositions is the company’s relatively flexible business model compared to its peers. Snowflake touts this ability on its website:\n\n “Whether you’re a business or technology professional, get the performance, flexibility, and near-infinite scalability to easily load, integrate, analyze and securely share your data.”\n\n\n Source:Snowflake\n\nSnowflake's virtual data warehouse setup where workloads share the same data but can run independently, makes it easier for customers to run smaller workloads. Snowflake management calls this the ability to scale down. When a company joins Snowflake, it does not require a big upfront commitment like it might with other companies. Snowflake allows customers to fully customize their services with an ability to scale down to whatever level is needed. Companies only have to pay for the services they need, instead of having to pay for big bulked up packages containing unnecessary services.\nSnowflake’s competitors, on the other hand, often combine compute, storage and services, then require customers to size and pay based on the largest workload, which can make some data warehouses completely unaffordable or inefficient for some companies.\nSnowflake's documentation claims that the Snowflake data platform is not built on any existing database technology or “big data” software platforms such as Hadoop. Instead, Snowflake combines a completely new SQL query engine with an innovative database architecture natively designed for the cloud. This database and query engine helps Snowflake perform faster queries with fewer errors and costs over competitors.\nI don't want this explanation to get too technical for those not familiar with databases, storage or how the cloud works, so for those that want a more technical explanation of Snowflake's architecture, they can read Snowflake's documentation. or read a Snowflake Presentation titled \"A Detailed View Inside Snowflake\".\nC3 AI and Snowflake Partner\nBefore going through earnings, I wanted to highlight some very recent news of a new collaboration between C3.ai (NYSE:AI) and Snowflake. C3 AI is an enterprise AI software provider that provides a suite that provides comprehensive services to build enterprise-scale AI applications more efficiently and cost-effectively than alternative approaches.\nThis partnership will give companies that currently use Snowflake access to the C3 AI® Suite and pre-built C3 AI applications that include a range of industries and enterprise AI use cases, including AI-based CRM, predictive maintenance, supply network optimization, and fraud detection.\n\n C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi, said the partnership \"will create significant time and operational efficiencies for Snowflake's customers and solidify Snowflake as the operational data platform of choice for enterprise AI applications.\"\n\n\n Source: C3.ai's chief product officer, Houman Behzadi -ZDNet\n\nSnowflake Q1 FY 2022 Earnings\nSnowflake's Q1 FY 2022 remaining performance obligations or RPO was $1.4 billion, representing 206% year-over-year growth. The RPO results reflected more multimillion-dollar relationships with particular strength in the telecom and technology sectors. Of the $1.4 billion in RPO, Snowflake expects approximately 54% to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months.\nSnowflake defines RPO in its earnings press release as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods.\nRPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears.RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity.\nAt the end of Q1, Snowflake had 4,532 total customers. The total number reflects the addition of 393 net new customers in Q1, including three seven-figure new customers. Several of these customer wins might be recognizable names to investors that include Datadog (NASDAQ:DDOG) and Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) and Equifax (NYSE:EFX).\nSnowflake management has stated that they have a strong interest in penetrating more of the largest enterprises globally because they provide the largest opportunity for account expansion. On that note, Snowflake now has 104 customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, up from 77 last quarter. CFO Michael Scarpelli had some interesting things to say about Snowflake expanding with large customers that shows why the company's products are gaining fans among large enterprises\n\n When we expand within our largest customers, we typically replace more than one solution. In many cases, we replace on-premise and first-generation cloud solutions, and we address new workloads.\n Snowflake creates use cases that were previously impossible. This is what fuels our 168% net revenue retention rate, and we remain confident that our net revenue retention will stay above 160% for the fiscal year.\n\n\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n\nSnowflake's net revenue retention rate of 168% is probably the best number in the SaaS world. Snowflake calculates their net retention number by first specifying a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from the current period end. Next, Snowflake defines the measurement cohort as the population of customers under capacity contracts that used the platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The net revenue retention is then defined as the quotient obtained by dividing the product revenue from the cohort in the second year of the measurement period by the product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period.\nSo a net retention rate of 168% means that the customer cohort that spent $100 on average in the first year of the measurement period on the Snowflake platform is spending on average $168 in the second year of the measurement period.. Any customer in the cohort that did not use the platform in the second year remains in the calculation and simply contributes zero product revenue in the second year.\nSnowflake grew product and total revenues grew 110% year over year to $229 million. Product revenue grew to $214 million, reflecting strength in Snowflake consumption. Product revenue is a key metric for Snowflake because revenue is recognized based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at the customers discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Professional services and other revenue was 15 million.\nData by YCharts\nAs explained in Snowflake's Q1 FY2022 earnings release, product revenue primarily includes compute, storage, and data transfer resources, which are consumed by customers on Snowflake's platform as a single, integrated offering. Snowflake customers have the ability to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally on the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.\nSnowflake's consumption-based business model distinguishes the company from subscription-based SaaS companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover of services. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, Snowflake believes that the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from the platform.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake's Cost of Sales was $97.35 million. Snowflake's overall Gross Profit rose 98.6% to $131.57 million. Overall Gross Margins were 57.47% and on a non-GAAP basis, Snowflake'sproductgross margin was 72%, up from 66% in the comparable quarter last year.\nFavorable cloud service agreements, growing scale across different regions and Snowflake's enterprise customer's success all contributed to steady product gross margin improvements. Management also indicated during the earnings call that in the long term, the product gross margin number could trend upward into the mid 70’s with the help of improved data storage economics. The recent changes to Snowflake’s storage representation of data have resulted in better data compression and reduced storage costs, which help the gross margin.\n\n And the way it [Data Compression] improves margin is because storage becomes more efficient. Storage is a smaller component of the overall mix of the revenue, and compute is the real value of our software that drives more margin. And I will say we did roll this out in April, and you do see some of that coming into an impact on last quarter. But we did say at our IPO, if you remember, we thought we could get to the mid-70s [in product gross margins]. That might feel very good that we'll get to the mid-70s. It's going to take some time.\n\n\n Source: CFO Michael Scarpelli -Snowflake Q1 FY2022 Earnings Call\n\nData by YCharts\nTotal Operating Expenditures were $337.16 Million. Snowflake recorded an Operating Loss of $205.60 Million. Product Operating margin was negative 16%, benefiting from revenue outperformance.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake recorded a net loss of $203.22 Million in Q1. Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted was -$0.70.\nData by YCharts\nAdjusted free cash flow margin was 10% and was positively impacted by strong collections from Q4 bookings and operating margin outperformance. Adjusted free cash flow excludes the $10 million impact of net cash paid or received on both employee and employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock option transactions. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow plus (minus) net cash paid (received) on payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions.\nFree cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software development costs. Free cash flow was $2.48 million during Q1.\nData by YCharts\nIt is important to remember that Snowflake does experience free cash flow seasonality. In fiscal '21, Q1 and Q4 were the strongest free cash flow quarters, while Q2 was the weakest and this pattern is expected to continue in future periods.\nGuidance\nSnowflake Q2 FY2022 Guidance\nFY 2022 Full Year Guidance\nSource:Snowflake First Quarter of Fiscal 2022 Press Release\nBalance Sheet\nThe company’s balance sheet is healthy, with approximately $3.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.\nData by YCharts\nTotal Current Liabilities are $777.00 Million. Quick ratio was 5.27. A good quick ratio is any number greater than 1.0. Snowflake has aDebt To Equity ratioof 0.04.\nData by YCharts\nSnowflake Investor Day\nSnowflake held an Investor Day on June 10th, in which the company revealed plans to reach $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 (FY29), a big rise from fiscal 2021’s $554 million, with a long-term operating margin target of 10%.\nInvestors, however, seem to have wanted even more growth as the stock opened around 4% lower the next day. Some analysts like Patrick Colville of Deutsche Bank think guidance is conservative because it implies that Snowflake would only capture about 12% of the $86B data warehouse market estimated for FY29.\nThat all goes to show that there are already enormous growth expectations built into this stock because $10 billion in product revenue by the end of 2028 is a fairly ambitious goal.\nOne other interesting part of the presentation was that the CFO raised the total addressable market for Snowflake to $90 billion, up from the $81 billion used for the roadshow for the IPO.\nCompetitors\nIn addition to database warehouses Druid and Dremio, Snowflake's strongest competitors appear to be the big data warehouse systems from the major cloud players like Amazon's Redshift, Microsoft Azure's Synapse, and Google's Big Query.\nAmazon, Microsoft and Google are all choosing to compete against Snowflake's new ideas in database warehouses by using the time honored tactic of trying to copy as many of Snowflake's features as possible..\nThe advantage that Snowflake has over Amazon, Microsoft and Google in those companies trying to play copycat is that those database warehouses don't scale as well across different data sources (namely competing cloud storage services) and the major cloud players are not fully independent database warehouse providers, meaning that in the end, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are trying to lock customers in to as many of their bundled cloud services as possible. Snowflake doesn't care what cloud service a customer uses for services like storage, as Snowflake is truly neutral in the cloud wars, which is very desirable in a multi-cloud world.\nOf all the competitors, Google Big Query is currently the closest competitor to what Snowflake is doing as it also separates storage and compute. The biggest differences between Snowflake and BigQuery comes down to pricing and performance. Beth Kindig, in her article about Snowflake said this about Snowflake vs Big Query:\n\n When it comes to deciding between BigQuery and Snowflake, it can come down to what you do with the database due to pricing structure differences. For instance, Snowflake is a better choice for concurrent users and business intelligence. It’s also a great choice for data-as-a-service, where you might give client access to your data in the form of analytics. BigQuery is perhaps a better choice for ad hoc reporting, where you have occasional complex reports on a quarterly basis or recommendation models and machine learning that require high idle time. Again, these examples are mainly due to pricing structure.\n\n\n Source: Beth Kindig -Forbes article\n\nRisks\nSnowflake has significant valuation risk, even with the pullback in the stock price from its highs in December. For Snowflake to expand its valuation any further, it is going to require the company to continue posting outstanding growth numbers.\nSecondarily, Snowflake currently only offers their platform on the public clouds provided by AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are also some of the company's primary competitors. Currently, a substantial majority of Snowflake's business is run on the AWS public cloud.\nSo, while Snowflake has some competitive advantages over a cloud giant like AWS, there is a risk that AWS or one of the other cloud giants could use the control of their public cloud to embed innovations for competing offerings to Snowflake or bundle competing products together with other cloud services or leverage their public cloud customer relationships to exclude Snowflake from opportunities. The reason why this risk might not play out in the cloud giants favor is that it appears companies are favoring multi-cloud approaches and have little desire in being locked into only one cloud by a bundled product. That is where Snowflake's Switzerland neutral status in the cloud wars provides some protection but not total protection from this risk.\nOn another note, though, because the three major cloud players also provides much of the infrastructure for Snowflake's business model, in the future it is completely possible that Snowflake could face the risk of unfavorable pricing for the use of the underlying cloud infrastructure, which could hurt Snowflake's margins.\nSnowflake could also undergo pricing pressure on the services offered to customers, as a company like Amazon could do something like offer discount pricing for competing services to customers and that scenario could also threaten Snowflake's margins over the longer term. Amazon has been known to use that strategy in other areas of their business in the past.\nAnother risk is regulatory. Snowflake must comply with evolving privacy and other data related laws. The requirements for following those laws could be expensive and force the company to make adverse changes to the business, with failure to comply with such laws not being much of an option. Examples of these types of laws are General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).\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\nSalesforce(CRM)\n$222.53B\n10.30\n51.27%\n8.1\n22.57%\n73.92%\n5.96B\n\n\nSnowflake (SNOW)\n$71.25B\n87.93\n1.09%\n60.4\n110.4%\n57.47%\n228.9M\n\n\nOkta (OKTA)\n$34.63B\n32.59\n20.99%\n27.6\n37.27%\n73.66%\n$251M\n\n\nMongoDB (MDB)\n$20.76B\n32.36\n5.28%\n26.8\n39.38%\n69.98%\n$181.7M\n\n\nTeradata (TDC)\n$5.23B\n2.76\n21.38%\n2.7\n13.13%\n62.53%\n491M\n\n\n\nTwo things are very obvious about the above company comparisons. One is that Snowflake, even with substantial pullback from its all time highs in December is very highly valued on a Price to Sales basis. Second, is that Snowflake was still growing triple digits in the latest quarter, which is pretty amazing.\nOn the other hand, investors were not impressed by the guidance given during earnings, nor were they impressed by Snowflake's long term projections given during their recent Investor Day. One thing is for sure, for investors to bid Snowflake's stock up further, the company will have to keep producingmind boggling growth numbers.\nThe following is based on 26 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Snowflake in the last 3 months. The average price target is $292.12 with a high forecast of $515.00 and a low forecast of $240.60. The average price target represents a 21.41% from the last price of $240.60.\n\nConclusion\nSnowflake is a stock that has very high expectations built into the stock price. The latest earnings and guidance, plus the latest investor day were not enough to get investors excited about pushing the value of the stock much further than it is now.\nHowever, I think that with a company like Snowflake, one has to take a much longer view than simply looking at one quarter's metrics. I believe it is appropriate to take at least a five year view with this company to see that the future is likely very bright. I believe Snowflake is being very conservative with their long term projections given during Investor Day and if that should prove to be the case, we all might look back several years from now and see with the benefit of hindsight that the stock was actually undervalued.\nI believe that the idea of a Data Cloud and a Data Marketplace are very, very early in the product life cycle and that Snowflake is at the beginning of a strong run of customer and revenue growth over the next several years. Snowflake is a buy but only for veryaggressive investors because there is already a lot of growth embedded in Snowflake's valuation and if the company fails to produce that expected growth, then the stock could drop rapidly.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182640876,"gmtCreate":1623571584595,"gmtModify":1704206450834,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/182640876","repostId":"1191179846","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191179846","pubTimestamp":1623536312,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191179846?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-13 06:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Blue Origin auctions seat on first spaceflight with Jeff Bezos for $28 million","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191179846","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nJeff Bezos’ space venture Blue Origin auctioned off a seat Saturday on its first crewed ","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nJeff Bezos’ space venture Blue Origin auctioned off a seat Saturday on its first crewed spaceflight scheduled on July 20.\nThe winning bidder will fly to the edge of space with the Amazon ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/12/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-auctions-spaceflight-seat-for-28-million.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The auction’s proceeds will be donated to Blue Origin’s education-focused nonprofit Club for the Future, which supports kids interested in future STEM careers.\nBlue Origin director of astronaut and orbital sales Ariane Cornell said during the auction webcast that New Shepard’s first passenger flight will carry four people, including Bezos, his brother, the auction winner and a fourth person to be announced later.\nAutonomous spaceflight\nNew Shepard, a rocket that carries a capsule to an altitude of over 340,000 feet, has flown more than a dozen successful test flights without passengers, including one in April at the company’s facility in the Texas desert. It’s designed to carry up to six people and flies autonomously — without needing a pilot. The capsule has massive windows to give passengers a view of the earth below during about three minutes in zero gravity, before returning to Earth.\nBlue Origin’s system launches vertically, and both the rocket and capsule are reusable. The boosters land vertically on a concrete pad at the company’s facility in Van Horn, Texas, while the capsules land using a set of parachutes.\nBezos founded Blue Origin in 2000 and still owns the company, funding it through share sales of his Amazon stock.\nJuly 20 is notable because it also marks the 52nd anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.\nBranson and Musk\nBezos and fellow billionairesElon MuskandSir Richard Bransonarein a race to get to space, but each in different ways.Bezos’ Blue Origin and Branson’sVirgin Galacticare competing to take passengers on short flights to the edge of space, a sector known as suborbital tourism, while Musk’s SpaceX is launching private passengers on further, multi-day flights, in what is known as orbital tourism.\nBoth Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic have been developing rocket-powered spacecraft, but that is where the similarities end. While Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket launches vertically from the ground,Virgin Galactic’s SpaceShipTwo system is released mid-air and returns to Earth in a glidefor a runway landing, like an aircraft.\nVirgin Galactic’s system is also flown by two pilots, while Blue Origin’s launches without one.Branson’s company has also flown a test spaceflight with a passenger onboard, although the company has three spaceflight tests remainingbefore it begins flying commercial customers– which is planned to start in 2022.\nSpaceX launches its Crew Dragon spacecraft to orbit atop its reusable Falcon 9 rocket, havingsent 10 astronauts to the International Space Station on three missions to date.\nIn addition to the government flights, Musk’s company is planning to launch multiple private astronaut missions in the year ahead – beginning withthe all-civilian Inspiration4 missionthat is planned for September. SpaceX is also launchingat least four private missions for Axiom Space, starting early next year.\nBlue Origin’s auction may have netted $28 million, but a seat on a suborbital spacecraft is typically much less expensive. Virgin Galactic has historically sold reservations between $200,000 and $250,000 per ticket, and more recently charged the Italian Air Force about $500,000 per ticket for a training spaceflight.\nMusk’s orbital missions are more costly than the suborbital flights, with NASA paying SpaceX about $55 million per seat for spaceflights to the ISS.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":101,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186182116,"gmtCreate":1623478459835,"gmtModify":1704204788492,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/186182116","repostId":"2142823202","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2142823202","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":1623453000,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142823202?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-12 07:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Inflation scare?

From e-commerce platforms to home improvement stores to furniture and housewares merchants, many of the top performers have fit this flavor.</p>\n<p>Take the broad-based Vanguard Consumer Discretionary Index Fund ETF VCR, +0.66% that surged more than 90% from March 2020 to March 2021. That was thanks to components like home improvement stocks Lowe’s LOW, -0.30% and Home Depot HD, -0.33% alongside retailers like TJX TJX, -0.08%.</p>\n<p>Lately, however, performance has started to lag for many of these names. In fact, since April 1 we’ve seen these three stocks all drift slightly into the red even as the S&amp;P 500 SPX, -0.11% has tacked on about 6% in the same period.</p>\n<p>And some fear that may only be the beginning. As one Wall Street insider said recently in a Bloomberg interview, a “huge unwind” is coming for stay-at-home stocks, including hardware stores and home-goods merchants.</p>\n<p>While some big-name “suburbia” trades are still relatively stable, signs of trouble are already emerging at the fringes. Century Communities CCS, -0.34% and Dream Finders Homes DFH, -2.55%, two mid-tier single family homebuilders, have seen shares crash by double digits over the last month. On the furnishings side, appliance giant Whirlpool Corporation WHR, -0.51% and department store Nordstrom JWN, +2.03% are down sharply from their spring highs.</p>\n<p><b>Here are five big reasons why:</b></p>\n<p><b>1.</b>&nbsp;<b>The upgrade cycle is over</b></p>\n<p>Last summer, white-collar workers who were stuck at home made note of overdue projects and took advantage of being able to easily meet with contractors. But in many ways, this growth is not sustainable.</p>\n<p>Consider the kind of purchases homeowners were making according to data from the NPD Group. Faucets, kitchen cabinets and even toilets were among the most popular products sold in 2020. Needless to say, even the most profligate homeowners aren’t going to follow this upgrade cycle of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms on an annual basis.</p>\n<p>The same is true for furniture and other home goods. Internet giant Comscore recorded the highest visitation to related websites in history in May 2020 with 133 million web surfers shopping for some kind of home goods. Once again, a new couch or lamp is not an annual purchase — so this trend seems unsustainable for much longer.</p>\n<p><b>2.&nbsp;Valuations are stretched</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of post-pandemic peaks for home-goods purveyors, we’ve seen the financials bear out these big increases via boosted profits and sales. However, we’ve also seen the stock of many related merchants surge even more — stretching their valuations from historical norms.</p>\n<p>Take TJX. Currently this discount retailer has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of more than 26, compared with a forward P/E of just 21 in spring 2020. Its trailing price-to-sales ratio is now 2.1 compared with 1.4.</p>\n<p>What’s more, valuations for previous darlings like TJX are out of line with peers, too. Consider the forward P/E of the overall S&amp;P 500 index is 22 right now, and other similar names like Macy’s M, +0.70% and Big Lots BIG, -3.71% actually have forward P/E ratios well under 10. You can argue TJX is unique, of course… but you also may want to be aware of what “fair value” looks like for many other stocks outside fashionable stay-at-home trades right now.</p>\n<p><b>3.&nbsp;Delays and shortages</b></p>\n<p>Future growth from pandemic-fueled peaks in these stocks is not impossible, of course. But given supply chain disruptions it seems highly unlikely. There are a host of reasons for these delays, including overseas shipping delays as well as capacity and output crunches that are affecting many industries, but “stay at home” stocks seem particularly hard hit.</p>\n<p>Home improvement products are simply nowhere to be found, with roughly 94% of builders reporting “at least some serious shortages of appliances” according to the National Association of Home Builders. Another 93% are running short on framing lumber and 87% say it is hard to obtain windows and doors.</p>\n<p>Even if you can get past demand concerns, without the raw materials to get to work it’s very hard to see future growth in this category.</p>\n<p><b>4.&nbsp;Inflationary pressures</b></p>\n<p>For the people who haven’t already ponied up the cash for a contractor or made their peace with extended delays for their expensive new furniture, there is a pretty big disincentive right now for new shoppers: inflation.</p>\n<p>The cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index jumped 0.6% in May to run at a 5% annual rate. That was not only higher than expectations, but the fastest pace since the summer of 2008. The inflation risks were so pronounced that the Federal Reserve publicly stated it could move up the schedule for expected interest rate increases to keep the risks under wraps.</p>\n<p>Inflation isn’t always a death knell, of course. But it has historically eroded purchasing power and could curtail some of the spending in “stay at home” stocks that we’ve seen in the last year or so.</p>\n<p><b>5.&nbsp;Home-equity hubris</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of red-hot inflation: In May, the median price for U.S. homes topped $350,000 for the first time ever — up 23.6% from 2020. What’s more, a Realtor.com survey showed roughly a third of selling homeowners expect to get more than their asking price, and roughly the same amount expect an offer within a week of listing.</p>\n<p>Some of this is justifiable. Many articles have been written in recent years about the dearth of supply in attractive markets, and it’s important to acknowledge the remote work of the pandemic has indeed created some disruptive introspection into why people live where they do.</p>\n<p>But here’s where things get dicey: homeowners who have already spent the expected premium on their home’s price well in advance. According to Freddie Mac, about $152.7 billion in equity loans were taken out on U.S. houses last year, a massive increase of 41.7% from 2019 and the highest refinancing cash-out dollar amount since 2007.</p>\n<p>Anyone remember what happened to the real-estate market in 2007? Or the similar sense of seller entitlement from those days? There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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>The ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer</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\">\nThe ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-24 18:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-shelter-in-suburbia-trade-is-about-to-reverse-and-these-stocks-will-suffer-11624457411?siteid=yhoof2><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>5 reasons the pandemic megatrend is over.\n\nOne of the biggest investment stories of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the boom in consumer discretionary stocks with a “shelter in suburbia” theme.

But in many ways, this growth is not sustainable.\nConsider the kind of purchases homeowners were making according to data from the NPD Group. Faucets, kitchen cabinets and even toilets were among the most popular products sold in 2020. Needless to say, even the most profligate homeowners aren’t going to follow this upgrade cycle of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms on an annual basis.\nThe same is true for furniture and other home goods. Internet giant Comscore recorded the highest visitation to related websites in history in May 2020 with 133 million web surfers shopping for some kind of home goods. Once again, a new couch or lamp is not an annual purchase — so this trend seems unsustainable for much longer.\n2. Valuations are stretched\nSpeaking of post-pandemic peaks for home-goods purveyors, we’ve seen the financials bear out these big increases via boosted profits and sales. However, we’ve also seen the stock of many related merchants surge even more — stretching their valuations from historical norms.\nTake TJX. Currently this discount retailer has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of more than 26, compared with a forward P/E of just 21 in spring 2020. Its trailing price-to-sales ratio is now 2.1 compared with 1.4.\nWhat’s more, valuations for previous darlings like TJX are out of line with peers, too. Consider the forward P/E of the overall S&P 500 index is 22 right now, and other similar names like Macy’s M, +0.70% and Big Lots BIG, -3.71% actually have forward P/E ratios well under 10. You can argue TJX is unique, of course… but you also may want to be aware of what “fair value” looks like for many other stocks outside fashionable stay-at-home trades right now.\n3. Delays and shortages\nFuture growth from pandemic-fueled peaks in these stocks is not impossible, of course. But given supply chain disruptions it seems highly unlikely. There are a host of reasons for these delays, including overseas shipping delays as well as capacity and output crunches that are affecting many industries, but “stay at home” stocks seem particularly hard hit.\nHome improvement products are simply nowhere to be found, with roughly 94% of builders reporting “at least some serious shortages of appliances” according to the National Association of Home Builders. Another 93% are running short on framing lumber and 87% say it is hard to obtain windows and doors.\nEven if you can get past demand concerns, without the raw materials to get to work it’s very hard to see future growth in this category.\n4. Inflationary pressures\nFor the people who haven’t already ponied up the cash for a contractor or made their peace with extended delays for their expensive new furniture, there is a pretty big disincentive right now for new shoppers: inflation.\nThe cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index jumped 0.6% in May to run at a 5% annual rate. That was not only higher than expectations, but the fastest pace since the summer of 2008. The inflation risks were so pronounced that the Federal Reserve publicly stated it could move up the schedule for expected interest rate increases to keep the risks under wraps.\nInflation isn’t always a death knell, of course. But it has historically eroded purchasing power and could curtail some of the spending in “stay at home” stocks that we’ve seen in the last year or so.\n5. Home-equity hubris\nSpeaking of red-hot inflation: In May, the median price for U.S. homes topped $350,000 for the first time ever — up 23.6% from 2020. What’s more, a Realtor.com survey showed roughly a third of selling homeowners expect to get more than their asking price, and roughly the same amount expect an offer within a week of listing.\nSome of this is justifiable. Many articles have been written in recent years about the dearth of supply in attractive markets, and it’s important to acknowledge the remote work of the pandemic has indeed created some disruptive introspection into why people live where they do.\nBut here’s where things get dicey: homeowners who have already spent the expected premium on their home’s price well in advance. According to Freddie Mac, about $152.7 billion in equity loans were taken out on U.S. houses last year, a massive increase of 41.7% from 2019 and the highest refinancing cash-out dollar amount since 2007.\nAnyone remember what happened to the real-estate market in 2007? Or the similar sense of seller entitlement from those days? There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":439,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":166443654,"gmtCreate":1624023741878,"gmtModify":1703826848245,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/166443654","repostId":"1118271544","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118271544","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1624023029,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118271544?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 21:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow drops 400 points at the open, extending losses in its worst week since January","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118271544","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks fell on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average on pace to post its worst week sinc","content":"<p>U.S. stocks fell on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average on pace to post its worst week since January, as bank shares led the market sell-off after the Federal Reserve's latest policy update.</p>\n<p>The blue-chip average dropped 400 points, bringing its week-to-date losses to 2.8% The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.8%, pushing its loss this week to more than 1%.

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.

But some investors have pulled the plug on the company lately.\nTesla (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.\nFord (F) stock is up nearly 75%, putting it in the top 10 of the S&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.\nAnd 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.\nIt 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.\nTesla 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.\nYet Tesla is one of the most polarizing stocks on Wall Street.\nAccording 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.\nSkeptics have many questions about Tesla and Musk\nThe consensus target price for Tesla stock from analysts is $652, about 6% lower than its current price.\nTesla critics have a pile of worries to point to. A notable short seller who was featured in \"The Big Short\" is betting against the company.

That's because the Oracle of Omaha's track record is virtually unsurpassed. Since taking the reins of <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) in the mid-1960s, Buffett's company has averaged an annual return of 20%. This works out to an aggregate gain of greater than 2,800,000% for its Class A shares.</p>\n<p>Although Buffett isn't perfect, he and his investing team have a knack for identifying attractively valued businesses that have clear competitive advantages. As we prepare to move into the second half of 2021, the following five Buffett stocks stand out as those that should be bought hand over fist.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1077c8372814d2b8150e933b4c608005\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p>\n<h2>Amazon</h2>\n<p>Even though Buffett's investing lieutenants, Todd Combs and Ted Weschler, are the architects behind Berkshire Hathaway's stake in <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN), it's arguably the Buffett stock that should be bought most aggressively ahead of the second half of the year.</p>\n<p>As most folks probably know, Amazon is an e-commerce juggernaut. Based on an April report from eMarketer, the company effectively controls $0.40 of every $1 spent online in the United States. It's also pivoted its online retail popularity into signing up more than 200 million people to its Prime program worldwide. The fees Amazon collects from Prime help it to undercut its competition on price. And it certainly doesn't hurt that Prime members tend to spend many multiples more than non-Prime shoppers during the course of the year.</p>\n<p>But it's the company's cloud infrastructure service, Amazon Web Services (AWS), that has truly budded into a star. Since the operating margins associated with cloud infrastructure are considerably higher than what Amazon nets from retail and advertising, AWS' growth is leading to a surge in operating cash flow. If investors were to continue to pay the midpoint of Amazon's operating cash flow multiple over the past decade, it could hit $10,000 a share by 2025.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b18b49b2b35da2fc49e0a83b883d1c22\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Bristol Myers Squibb</h2>\n<p>Pharmaceutical stocks are money machines, and none looks to be more attractive on a valuation basis than <b>Bristol Myers Squibb</b> (NYSE:BMY).</p>\n<p>One reason to be excited about this drug developer is its organic growth potential. Eliquis, which was co-developed with <b>Pfizer</b>, has blossomed into the world's leading oral anticoagulant, with sales expected to surpass $10 billion in 2021. Meanwhile, dozens of additional clinical trials are underway for cancer immunotherapy Opdivo, which generated $7 billion in sales last year. This offers plenty of opportunity to expand Opdivo's label and pump up its pricing power.</p>\n<p>Another reason Bristol Myers Squibb is such an intriguing stock is its November 2019 acquisition of cancer and immunology company Celgene. Buying Celgene brought the blockbuster multiple-myeloma drug Revlimid into the fold. Revlimid has sustainably grown its annual sales by a double-digit percentage for more than a decade, with label expansion, longer duration of use, and pricing power all playing a role.

That's because the Oracle of Omaha's track record is virtually unsurpassed. Since taking the reins of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) in the mid-1960s, Buffett's company has averaged an annual return of 20%. This works out to an aggregate gain of greater than 2,800,000% for its Class A shares.\nAlthough Buffett isn't perfect, he and his investing team have a knack for identifying attractively valued businesses that have clear competitive advantages. As we prepare to move into the second half of 2021, the following five Buffett stocks stand out as those that should be bought hand over fist.\nBerkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.\nAmazon\nEven though Buffett's investing lieutenants, Todd Combs and Ted Weschler, are the architects behind Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), it's arguably the Buffett stock that should be bought most aggressively ahead of the second half of the year.\nAs most folks probably know, Amazon is an e-commerce juggernaut. Based on an April report from eMarketer, the company effectively controls $0.40 of every $1 spent online in the United States. It's also pivoted its online retail popularity into signing up more than 200 million people to its Prime program worldwide. The fees Amazon collects from Prime help it to undercut its competition on price. And it certainly doesn't hurt that Prime members tend to spend many multiples more than non-Prime shoppers during the course of the year.\nBut it's the company's cloud infrastructure service, Amazon Web Services (AWS), that has truly budded into a star. Since the operating margins associated with cloud infrastructure are considerably higher than what Amazon nets from retail and advertising, AWS' growth is leading to a surge in operating cash flow. If investors were to continue to pay the midpoint of Amazon's operating cash flow multiple over the past decade, it could hit $10,000 a share by 2025.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBristol Myers Squibb\nPharmaceutical stocks are money machines, and none looks to be more attractive on a valuation basis than Bristol Myers Squibb (NYSE:BMY).\nOne reason to be excited about this drug developer is its organic growth potential. Eliquis, which was co-developed with Pfizer, has blossomed into the world's leading oral anticoagulant, with sales expected to surpass $10 billion in 2021. Meanwhile, dozens of additional clinical trials are underway for cancer immunotherapy Opdivo, which generated $7 billion in sales last year. This offers plenty of opportunity to expand Opdivo's label and pump up its pricing power.\nAnother reason Bristol Myers Squibb is such an intriguing stock is its November 2019 acquisition of cancer and immunology company Celgene. Buying Celgene brought the blockbuster multiple-myeloma drug Revlimid into the fold. Revlimid has sustainably grown its annual sales by a double-digit percentage for more than a decade, with label expansion, longer duration of use, and pricing power all playing a role. This key treatment, which topped $12 billion in sales last year, is protected from a full onslaught of generic competition until early 2026. That means Bristol Myers will be rolling in the dough for another five years, at minimum.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMastercard\nEveryone seems to be looking for the smartest recovery play from the pandemic. Payment processor Mastercard (NYSE:MA) might well be the safest way to take advantage of a steady uptick in consumer and enterprise spending.\nMastercard isn't a cheap stock by any means -- at 36 times Wall Street's forward-year earnings consensus -- but it benefits from a simple numbers game.

It's something you'll truly appreciate when a recession strikes. Whereas most financial stocks will be forced to set aside capital to cover credit or loan delinquencies, Mastercard won't have to. This is a big reason it bounces back from recessions quicker than most financial stocks.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nTeva Pharmaceutical Industries\nIf you have an appetite for turnaround plays, brand-name and generic-drug developer Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (NYSE:TEVA) is the stock to buy hand over fist for the second half of 2021. Like Amazon, it's a stock that was added to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio by either Combs or Weschler and not Buffett.\nWhile there's no denying that Teva has its fair share of hurdles to overcome, the company's turnaround-focused CEO, Kare Schultz, has been a blessing. Since taking the helm less than four years ago, Schultz has helped shave off more than $10 billion in net debt, and he's overseen the reduction of roughly $3 billion in annual operating expenses.

At just 4 times the company's projected earnings in 2021, Teva is about as cheap as a healthcare stock can get.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBank of America\nLastly, bank stock Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) has the look of a company that can be confidently bought hand over fist for the second half of 2021.\nFor much of the past decade, the Federal Reserve has kept interest rates at or near historic lows. That's meant less in the way of interest income for banks.

The KR average analyst price target of $35.60 implies 9.1% downside potential from current levels.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187932049,"gmtCreate":1623733903681,"gmtModify":1704209927466,"author":{"id":"3586461857528794","authorId":"3586461857528794","name":"tL","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586461857528794","authorIdStr":"3586461857528794"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187932049","repostId":"2143178756","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143178756","pubTimestamp":1623719401,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143178756?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 09:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks to Avoid This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143178756","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These investments seem pretty vulnerable right now.","content":"<p>In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME), <b>AMC Entertainment Holdings</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:AMC), and <b>Carnival</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>GameStop lived up to my prediction on tumbling the day after reporting quarterly results, something that has now happened in 10 of the past 11 reports.

Royal Caribbean</h2>\n<p>This was supposed to be the summer that the cruise industry finally roars back into being, but we're already seeing some choppy waters. Royal Caribbean's <i>Celebrity Millennium</i> became the first major cruise ship available to North American seafarers earlier this month since the industry shut down last March.

With the reopening off to a bumpy start it also makes the stock vulnerable here.</p>\n<h2><b>2. AMC Entertainment</b></h2>\n<p>I'm a fan of a lot that AMC Entertainment has done to get bet better at a time when many of its smaller rivals have been merely walking in place. The country's largest multiplex operator has upped its seat reservations and mobile order tech and carved out a new revenue stream with actively promoted private rentals. The new Investor Connect program is sheer genius, monetizing its newborn attention as a meme stock with millions of retail investors by trying to convert them into customers.</p>\n<p>However, after ballooning its share count north of 500 million -- and the stock still moving higher -- there will eventually be a price to be paid in terms of valuation. AMC Entertainment enters this week with an enterprise value above $35 billion, and sooner or later someone is going to have to pay the tab at the end of the party.</p>\n<p>AMC is doing the right things to stay on top of a declining industry, but it's not enough to justify today's sticker price.&nbsp; This has historically been a low-margin business -- in the low single digits for net margin most years -- despite the markup on concessions. You'll see a year-over-year bounce this year, but we may never return to 2019 as a baseline. Theatrical release windows are being shattered by streaming initiatives. AMC has bloated its debt levels and share count to stay alive, but all of this comes at a price that right now seems too dear to pay.</p>\n<h2>3. Osprey Bitcoin Trust</h2>\n<p>I believe in keeping a small percent of your risk-tolerant portfolio in crypto, but not every vehicle is in the same boat. Osprey Bitcoin Trust offers investors a low-cost way to play the popularity of <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) in a stock exchange-listed vehicle.</p>\n<p>Osprey Bitcoin Trust is a lot smaller than the market's original Bitcoin-owning trust, and it's also trading at an unsustainable premium. Osprey's mark-up to its stake of Bitcoin tokens has been contracting since hitting the market earlier this year, and I was starting to get interested when the premium narrowed to 12% a week ago.</p>\n<p>The mark-up is going the wrong way again. Osprey Bitcoin Trust owns what is currently $12.68 in Bitcoin, but it closed last week at $14.95. Is an 18% premium worth it when the much larger -- but admittedly more high-cost -- <b>Grayscale Bitcoin Trust</b> (OTC:GBTC) is fetching an 11% discount to its net asset value?</p>\n<p>If you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in Royal Caribbean, AMC Entertainment, and Osprey Bitcoin Trust this week.</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 Stocks to Avoid 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\">\n3 Stocks to Avoid This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-15 09:10 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that GameStop (NYSE:GME), AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), and Carnival (NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.\n\nGameStop lived up to...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"OBTC":"Osprey Bitcoin Trust","CCL":"嘉年华邮轮","GME":"游戏驿站","AMC":"AMC院线"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/14/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2143178756","content_text":"In last week's article on three stocks to avoid, I predicted that GameStop (NYSE:GME), AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), and Carnival (NYSE:CCL) would have a rough few days.\n\nGameStop lived up to my prediction on tumbling the day after reporting quarterly results, something that has now happened in 10 of the past 11 reports.

Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about&nbsp;<b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”</p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.</p>\n<p>In other words, NIO represents the<b>crème de la crème</b>of EV stocks right now.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla</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\">\nWhy I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 15:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来","TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1145825451","content_text":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.\nSource: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com\nMusk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”\nThe Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.
