Perhaps more importantly, they have an impressive track record of running circles around their peers that don&#39;t pay a dividend over long periods.</p><p>Knowing how important dividend income can be, Warren Buffett has packed Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s portfolio with income stocks yielding well above the average yield of the<b>S&amp;P 500</b>. What follows are the six highest-yielding stocks in Warren Buffett&#39;s portfolio, as of this past weekend (but taking into account the company&#39;s most-recent Form 13F filing).</p><p><b>1. STORE Capital: 5.27% yield</b></p><p>If you want to ride Warren Buffett&#39;s coattails into the highest yield possible, look no further thanreal estate investment trust(REIT) <b>STORE Capital</b> at 5.3%. In order to avoid normal corporate income tax rates, REITs are required to pay out most of their earnings as a dividend to their shareholders.</p><p>STORE&#39;s not-so-subtle secret to success is its triple-net leases. Triple-net leases, sometimes known as &#34;NNN leases,&#34; require the tenant to cover all property expenses. This includes maintenance, utility bills, and even the insurance and taxes associated with the property. Though triple-net leases often result in lower rental rates since the tenant is required to take on more financial responsibility, it makes STORE&#39;s operating cash flow about as transparent and predictable as possible.</p><p>What&#39;s more, STORE Capital has focused on purchasing what it calls &#34;profit-center real estate&#34; for middle-market companies.  Effectively, STORE seeks out properties that are essential to the businesses it leases to. This makes it far less likely that tenants would default on their rental payments.</p><p><b>2. Kraft Heinz: 4.14% yield</b></p><p>Packaged foods and beverage company <b>Kraft Heinz</b> is doling out a generous dividend as well. Even after reducing its payout in 2019, the company&#39;s yield of more than 4.1% places it in the high-yield category.</p><p>Although Warren Buffett has an incredible track record, even great investors are fallible. Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s hefty stake in Kraft Heinz is a perfect example of that. Heinz grossly overpaid for Kraft Foods in 2016, and the combined company&#39;s balance sheet has been paying for it ever since. Even with a greater than $15 billion goodwill writedown in 2019, the company&#39;s balance sheet remains debt heavy and with minimal wiggle room to reinvest in its brands.</p><p>The silver lining here is that the COVID-19 pandemic has encouraged consumers to eat at home more often. That&#39;s boosted sales of pre-packed and quickly prepared meals and snacks, which is the heart of Kraft Heinz&#39;s operating model.</p><p><b>3. U.S. Bancorp: 3.77% yield</b></p><p>Longtime holding <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> is yet another rock-solid income stock hiding in plain sight in Buffett&#39;s portfolio. Its relatively high 3.8% yield is a reflection of its superior return on assets (ROA) among larger bank stocks.</p><p>Whereas most money-center banks got themselves in big trouble during the financial crisis by chasing after riskier derivative investments, U.S. Bancorp&#39;s management team has predominantly stuck with the bread and butter of banking: loan and deposit growth. It&#39;s not sexy by any means, but it&#39;s a tried-and-true way for banks to grow their profits and payouts over the long run.</p><p>What really allows U.S. Bancorp to stand out is the company&#39;s digital engagement. As of May 31, 2022, 82% of its active customers were banking digitally. This includes 64% of total loan sales being completed online or via mobile app, which is up from just 45% at the beginning of 2020.  Online and mobile-based transactions are <i>substantially</i> cheaper for banks than in-person or phone-based interactions. It&#39;s just another reason U.S. Bancorp is an ROA beast among bank stocks.</p><p><b>4. Citigroup: 3.75% yield</b></p><p>Not far behind U.S. Bancorp in yield is money-center giant <b>Citigroup</b>. Although Citigroup has endured its struggles over the past decade and change, it hasn&#39;t hurt the company&#39;s ability to handily outpace the average yield (1.7%) of the broad-based S&amp;P 500.</p><p>Perhaps the biggest catalyst for Citi at the moment is historically high inflation. With the Federal Reserve having little choice but to get aggressive with interest rates in order to tame inflation, banks stocks should see a healthy uptick in the net-interest income collected from variable-rate outstanding loans. And to be clear, the nation&#39;s central bank doesn&#39;t appear to be anywhere close to ending its hawkish monetary stance.</p><p>Citigroup should also benefit from the cyclical nature of the banking industry. Thoughbank stockslike Citi are susceptible to rising loan delinquencies and charge-offs during periods of economic contraction and recessions, the U.S. and global economy spend far more time expanding than contracting. Patience in the banking industry usually pays off handsomely.</p><p><b>5. Paramount Global: 3.67% yield</b></p><p>Another relatively new holding that&#39;s generating a sizable yield for the Oracle of Omaha is media and entertainment company <b>Paramount Global</b>. Paramount&#39;s almost 3.7% yield is about two percentage points higher than the S&amp;P 500&#39;s dividend yield.</p><p>The no-brainer catalyst for Paramount throughout this decade is going to be its streaming push. As consumers move away from traditional cable bundles and toward less-expensive bolt-on streaming packages, Paramount+ has made sizable gains. Even after removing its services from Russia, global direct-to-consumer subscribers jumped to nearly 64 million. Paramount+ added 3.7 million net subscribers during the second quarter.</p><p>However, Paramount is also reaping the rewards of at least some moviegoers returning to the theater. Although movie theater attendance has been in decline since 2002, <i>Top Gun: Maverick</i> propelled the company&#39;s film entertainment segment to a greater-than-doubling in revenue in the June-ended quarter. If moviegoing continues to normalize closer to pre-pandemic levels, Paramount&#39;s payout could increase even more over time.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d159bcc7524b5013674767820b5e26a0\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>CHEVRON HAS INCREASED ITS BASE ANNUAL PAYOUT IN EACH OF THE PAST 35 YEARS. CVX DIVIDEND DATA BY YCHARTS.</span></p><p><b>6. Chevron: 3.55% yield</b></p><p>Last but not least, Big Oil is known to pay some hefty dividends, and integrated oil stock <b>Chevron</b> is no exception. The $5.68 per share Chevron is handing out each year works out to a nearly 3.6% yield. Tack on an up to $10 billion share buyback in 2022, and it&#39;s easy to see why Warren Buffett has piled into this stock.</p><p>There&#39;s a decent chance that Chevron, a Dividend Aristocrat, will no have trouble growing its payout for the foreseeable future thanks to global energy supply chain disruptions. Major energy companies significantly reduced their capital investments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Add to this Russia - Ukraine war, and there&#39;s the real possibility that supply constraints could lift crude oil and natural gas prices for years to come.</p><p>Then again, Chevron&#39;s secret weapon might be its integrated operating structure. Although it generates its juiciest margins from drilling, the company also owns transmission pipelines, refineries, and chemical plants.</p><p>Midstream pipelines typically rely on fixed-fee of volume-based contracts, which is a fancy way of saying they generate very predictable cash flow no more how volatile energy commodity prices are. Meanwhile, downstream operations like refineries and chemical plants benefit when input costs (i.e., crude prices) fall. In other words, Chevron is well-hedged within the oil and gas space.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Warren Buffett's 6 Highest-Yielding Dividend Stocks</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\">\nWarren Buffett's 6 Highest-Yielding Dividend Stocks\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-18 13:57 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/17/warren-buffett-6-highest-yielding-dividend-stocks/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSOne of the Oracle of Omaha's keys to success has been packing Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio with dividend stocks.Warren Buffett's highest-yielding stocks are all paying well over double the...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/17/warren-buffett-6-highest-yielding-dividend-stocks/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"CVX":"雪佛龙","PARA":"Paramount Global","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","USB":"美国合众银行","STOR":"STORE Capital","C":"花旗","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","KHC":"卡夫亨氏"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/17/warren-buffett-6-highest-yielding-dividend-stocks/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1130931256","content_text":"KEY POINTSOne of the Oracle of Omaha's keys to success has been packing Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio with dividend stocks.Warren Buffett's highest-yielding stocks are all paying well over double the average annual yield of the benchmark S&P 500.Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett has been a wealth-building machine longer than most Americans have been alive.

Tack on an up to $10 billion share buyback in 2022, and it's easy to see why Warren Buffett has piled into this stock.There's a decent chance that Chevron, a Dividend Aristocrat, will no have trouble growing its payout for the foreseeable future thanks to global energy supply chain disruptions. Major energy companies significantly reduced their capital investments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Add to this Russia - Ukraine war, and there's the real possibility that supply constraints could lift crude oil and natural gas prices for years to come.Then again, Chevron's secret weapon might be its integrated operating structure. Although it generates its juiciest margins from drilling, the company also owns transmission pipelines, refineries, and chemical plants.Midstream pipelines typically rely on fixed-fee of volume-based contracts, which is a fancy way of saying they generate very predictable cash flow no more how volatile energy commodity prices are. Meanwhile, downstream operations like refineries and chemical plants benefit when input costs (i.e., crude prices) fall. In other words, Chevron is well-hedged within the oil and gas space.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":686,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9907599640,"gmtCreate":1660210881482,"gmtModify":1703479127014,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤗","listText":"🤗","text":"🤗","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9907599640","repostId":"9907267967","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9907267967,"gmtCreate":1660200224763,"gmtModify":1703479039571,"author":{"id":"4103332230805300","authorId":"4103332230805300","name":"Smartkarma","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/39fffba2ff205c2730b5bf07e3de6647","crmLevel":0,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4103332230805300","authorIdStr":"4103332230805300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"⬆ <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/00019\">$Swire Pacific (A)(00019)$</a> - Swire Pacific (19 HK/87 HK) Buyback: Bigger Than It Appears.

The other still thinks that AAPL shares could drop 40%. Is the sizable downside risk realistic?\nOn the first day of September, one of the rare Wall Street bears on Apple stock (AAPL) finally gave in and dropped his sell rating. The last remaining one still sees shares dropping to a price target of $90, representing risk of loss of around 40%.\nCould New Street’s Pierre Ferragu, the last remaining Apple bear on Wall Street, be right about his downside call? The Apple Maven looks a bit closer at the argument.\nWhy bearish on Apple?\nThe core of Pierre’s bearish argument seems to be the iPhone. The analyst has called the upcoming device launch a “12S cycle”, arguing that the best of Apple’s iPhone upgrade wave,the so-called 5G super cycle, has been left in the rearview mirror.\nNew Street subscribes to the view that the strong iPhone 12 cycle has pulled forward smartphone sales, leaving a gap in demand going forward.

He believes that iPhone shipments will reach 190 million units, suggesting segment revenues of around $150 billion – a modest annual increase of 5% from COVID-19 levels.\nCould AAPL sink 40%?\nNow, let’s put pen to paper. For Apple stock to be valued at $90 apiece, one of two things would need to happen: either financial performance would need to lag consensus expectations, or valuations would need to contract (or a combination of both).\nOn results,Wall Street currently sees fiscal 2022 EPS landing at $5.63, roughly flat against a 2021 that has been impressive so far. For AAPL to drop 40% in price, therefore, next-year earnings would need to miss consensus substantially, by at least a couple of dollars. I find this highly unlikely.\nOn valuations, AAPL currently trades at a fiscal 2021 earnings multiple of 27 times. Assuming consensus-matching results in the future, this multiple would need to drop to about 16 times for AAPL shares to sink to $90. The stock’s forward P/E has not been this low in years.\nThe Apple Maven’s take\nI find it very improbable, if not virtually impossible, for Apple to ever be valued at $90 per share again. It is much more reasonable, in my opinion, that New Street’s current price target on the stock is simply stale, following AAPL’s 25% rally in the past six months.\nTherefore, I would not be surprised to see Wall Street’s last AAPL bear eventually (soon?) give in on his downside convictions, at least in what pertains to his current price target.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":624,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"content":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well.","text":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well.","html":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well."}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":145705906,"gmtCreate":1626242963805,"gmtModify":1703756203679,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Feels too speculative for comfort..&nbsp;","listText":"Feels too speculative for comfort..&nbsp;","text":"Feels too speculative for comfort..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/145705906","repostId":"2151565201","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":697,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":149346119,"gmtCreate":1625706735431,"gmtModify":1703746747357,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Another one riding on a high..","listText":"Another one riding on a high..","text":"Another one riding on a high..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/149346119","repostId":"2149697283","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2149697283","pubTimestamp":1625639555,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2149697283?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 14:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple stock is on fire but will it last?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2149697283","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"Apple's stock has caught an under-the-radar bid over the past four weeks, and the momentum may be sticking around says JPMorgan  telecom and networking analyst Samik Chatterjee.\"The upside pressure on volumes for the iPhone 12 series, historical outperformance in the July-September time period heading into launch event, and further catalysts in relation to outperformance for iPhone 13 volumes relative to lowered investor expectations implies a very attractive set up for the shares in the second ","content":"<p>Apple's stock has caught an under-the-radar bid over the past four weeks, and the momentum may be sticking around says JPMorgan (JPM) telecom and networking analyst Samik Chatterjee.</p>\n<p>\"The upside pressure on volumes for the iPhone 12 series, historical outperformance in the July-September time period heading into launch event, and further catalysts in relation to outperformance for iPhone 13 volumes relative to lowered investor expectations implies a very attractive set up for the shares in the second half of the year and thus expect Apple shares to outperform the broader market materially in 2H21,\" Chatterjee wrote in a new research note on Tuesday.</p>\n<p>The analyst reiterated his Outperform rating and raised the price target to $170 from $165.

The sector is not without its risks, however. A few small-cap players using questionable science have sold investors on false dreams of miracle drugs that could become game-changers in their field, and in these cases, that couldn't be further from the truth.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Avoiding bad investments is just as important as making good ones. So let's look at the dark side of investing in biotech and which companies to stay well away from.&nbsp;</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6bccd5c36f3f76148be467937b9b6293\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Cel-Sci</h2>\n<p>Sometimes, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> is dealt a bad hand in life and will need to bluff. However, it's a whole different story to double down on a bluff after <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>'s cover is blown.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Take the case of&nbsp;<b>Cel-Sci&nbsp;</b>(NYSEMKT:CVM), a small-cap biotech with a single late-stage immunotherapy candidate (Multikine) for treating head and neck cancer. On June 28, Cel-Sci announced that Multikine failed to achieve the primary endpoint of boosting patient survival by 10% compared to standard-of-care treatments in a decade-long phase 3 trial. As a result, the stock lost 66% of its value within four days, to $8.65.</p>\n<p>It's pretty hard to walk away from a giant bluff when there's just too much in the pot. In a conference call to investors on July 1, CEO Geert Kersten heralded the study as a \"success,\" saying that a cohort of patients who received Multikine plus surgery plus radiotherapy \"met the primary endpoint,\" and that Cel-Sci plans to file for regulatory approval. Later on in the call, chief scientific officer Taylor Eval denied all allegations the company was data-mining the study. On a side note, Kersten said he will \"not be releasing the [full] data to shareholders.\"</p>\n<p>The data that management is referring to is from a subgroup of patients in the Multikine cohort who did not receive chemotherapy in the study. This group of patients survived 14.3% longer after five years than the group who received no Multikine at all -- but that does not mean Multikine works on patients without chemotherapy. It has nothing to do with the study's primary endpoint (which includes both patients who did and did not receive chemotherapy). So the data-mining here is, in fact, pretty evident.</p>\n<p>It's also very easy to see how the drug could have a placebo effect. In clinical trials, Multikine was injected in or around the tumor. In case one was wondering, injecting just about anything into a tumor causes the cancer cells to die off -- partly due to needle damage. Moreover, patients in the 9.5-year study received Multikine for just three weeks and were not treated with the drug if their cancer relapsed. So anything (such as lifestyle choices, receiving other immunotherapies post-relapse, etc.) could have been behind the survival difference in the subgroups.</p>\n<p>Before the results came out (which took over a year), Cel-Sci bagged $31.7 million in cash by selling new stock to retail investors, resulting in heavy losses for shareholders less than three weeks after the deal closed. Overall, given the failure of its flagship candidate, the less than $50 million in assets on its books, and questionable conduct from management, this is definitely a biotech you don't want to be holding anytime soon (if not ever).&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>2. CytoDyn&nbsp;</h2>\n<p><b>CytoDyn</b> (OTC:CYDY) is a biotech known for developing leronlimab, an antibody that failed two phase 3 clinical studies for treating COVID-19. In May, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) even released a rare statement saying that the drug did not meet the primary endpoints in these studies.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>In response, CEO Nader Pourhassan has adopted a \"catch me if you can\" type of strategy. In other words, CytoDyn simply moved outside of the FDA's jurisdiction and began commercializing the drug in countries like the Philippines.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>It's perplexing as to why the company would risk its relationship with the FDA like this. Aside from the COVID-19 indication, leronlimab is also under investigation for the treatment of HIV. In one study, leronlimab reduced viral load to negligible levels in 83% of patients with HIV.</p>\n<p>I wouldn't be surprised if the rivalry between Pourhassan and the FDA has gone down to the personal level. Last July, the FDA rejected CytoDyn's Biologic License Application (BLA) filing for leronlimab's approval for treating HIV. But the agency did not ask for another clinical trial; it just wanted additional information about the drug and a meeting with company management. CytoDyn has just begun the process to resubmit its BLA on July 1, almost a year later.</p>\n<p>At the end of the day, biotechs with sketchy science and management woes shouldn't be trading at a $1 billion market cap. Take note that CytoDyn has less than $150 million in total assets, leaving shareholders with little recourse in case of further blunders.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>3. Northwest Biotherapeutics&nbsp;</h2>\n<p><b>Northwest Biotherapeutics</b>&nbsp;(OTC:NWBO) is a company that closely mirrors Cel-Sci in terms of both its science and stock price. Its management is also even more \"audacious\" than that of the previous companies.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The company's flagship candidate is an immunotherapy known as DCVax-L, which is under investigation for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, the most deadly form of brain cancer. The phase 3 study has been going on since December 2006 (almost 15 years now). It was originally a phase 2 study, but the company \"phase-shifted\" it to 3, citing difficulty in finding patients who are comfortable taking a placebo for the deadly illness.</p>\n<p>The study had numerous red flags from the start. Northwest was supposed to conduct two interim analyses of the trial data starting in December 2013. Yes, you read that right, December of 2013. By August 2014, however, the company had released a statement claiming that \"no interim analysis of efficacy in the Phase III trial [had] been done.\" What's more, the FDA halted the DCVax-L clinical trial in August 2015 before lifting it two years later. To this day, Northwest's management has never explained the reasons behind the trial halt.</p>\n<p>The company did eventually perform the interim analyses in 2017 and 2018, but released the results unblinded. When it comes to deadly diseases with significant unmet needs, clinical trials can be stopped early if the experimental drug meets the primary endpoint for ethical reasons. That did not happen with DCVax-L on both occasions.</p>\n<p>Last October, Northwest finally announced that the trial was coming to its end and that data was to be sent for statistical analysis.

The sector is not without its risks, however. A few small-cap players using questionable science have sold investors on false dreams of miracle drugs that could become game-changers in their field, and in these cases, that couldn't be further from the truth. \nAvoiding bad investments is just as important as making good ones. So let's look at the dark side of investing in biotech and which companies to stay well away from. \nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Cel-Sci\nSometimes, one is dealt a bad hand in life and will need to bluff. However, it's a whole different story to double down on a bluff after one's cover is blown. \nTake the case of Cel-Sci (NYSEMKT:CVM), a small-cap biotech with a single late-stage immunotherapy candidate (Multikine) for treating head and neck cancer. On June 28, Cel-Sci announced that Multikine failed to achieve the primary endpoint of boosting patient survival by 10% compared to standard-of-care treatments in a decade-long phase 3 trial. As a result, the stock lost 66% of its value within four days, to $8.65.\nIt's pretty hard to walk away from a giant bluff when there's just too much in the pot. In a conference call to investors on July 1, CEO Geert Kersten heralded the study as a \"success,\" saying that a cohort of patients who received Multikine plus surgery plus radiotherapy \"met the primary endpoint,\" and that Cel-Sci plans to file for regulatory approval. Later on in the call, chief scientific officer Taylor Eval denied all allegations the company was data-mining the study. On a side note, Kersten said he will \"not be releasing the [full] data to shareholders.\"\nThe data that management is referring to is from a subgroup of patients in the Multikine cohort who did not receive chemotherapy in the study. This group of patients survived 14.3% longer after five years than the group who received no Multikine at all -- but that does not mean Multikine works on patients without chemotherapy. It has nothing to do with the study's primary endpoint (which includes both patients who did and did not receive chemotherapy). So the data-mining here is, in fact, pretty evident.\nIt's also very easy to see how the drug could have a placebo effect. In clinical trials, Multikine was injected in or around the tumor. In case one was wondering, injecting just about anything into a tumor causes the cancer cells to die off -- partly due to needle damage. Moreover, patients in the 9.5-year study received Multikine for just three weeks and were not treated with the drug if their cancer relapsed. So anything (such as lifestyle choices, receiving other immunotherapies post-relapse, etc.) could have been behind the survival difference in the subgroups.\nBefore the results came out (which took over a year), Cel-Sci bagged $31.7 million in cash by selling new stock to retail investors, resulting in heavy losses for shareholders less than three weeks after the deal closed. Overall, given the failure of its flagship candidate, the less than $50 million in assets on its books, and questionable conduct from management, this is definitely a biotech you don't want to be holding anytime soon (if not ever). \n2. CytoDyn \nCytoDyn (OTC:CYDY) is a biotech known for developing leronlimab, an antibody that failed two phase 3 clinical studies for treating COVID-19. In May, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) even released a rare statement saying that the drug did not meet the primary endpoints in these studies. \nIn response, CEO Nader Pourhassan has adopted a \"catch me if you can\" type of strategy. In other words, CytoDyn simply moved outside of the FDA's jurisdiction and began commercializing the drug in countries like the Philippines. \nIt's perplexing as to why the company would risk its relationship with the FDA like this. Aside from the COVID-19 indication, leronlimab is also under investigation for the treatment of HIV. In one study, leronlimab reduced viral load to negligible levels in 83% of patients with HIV.\nI wouldn't be surprised if the rivalry between Pourhassan and the FDA has gone down to the personal level. Last July, the FDA rejected CytoDyn's Biologic License Application (BLA) filing for leronlimab's approval for treating HIV. But the agency did not ask for another clinical trial; it just wanted additional information about the drug and a meeting with company management. CytoDyn has just begun the process to resubmit its BLA on July 1, almost a year later.\nAt the end of the day, biotechs with sketchy science and management woes shouldn't be trading at a $1 billion market cap. Take note that CytoDyn has less than $150 million in total assets, leaving shareholders with little recourse in case of further blunders. \n3. Northwest Biotherapeutics \nNorthwest Biotherapeutics (OTC:NWBO) is a company that closely mirrors Cel-Sci in terms of both its science and stock price. Its management is also even more \"audacious\" than that of the previous companies. \nThe company's flagship candidate is an immunotherapy known as DCVax-L, which is under investigation for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, the most deadly form of brain cancer. The phase 3 study has been going on since December 2006 (almost 15 years now). It was originally a phase 2 study, but the company \"phase-shifted\" it to 3, citing difficulty in finding patients who are comfortable taking a placebo for the deadly illness.\nThe study had numerous red flags from the start. Northwest was supposed to conduct two interim analyses of the trial data starting in December 2013. Yes, you read that right, December of 2013. By August 2014, however, the company had released a statement claiming that \"no interim analysis of efficacy in the Phase III trial [had] been done.\" What's more, the FDA halted the DCVax-L clinical trial in August 2015 before lifting it two years later. To this day, Northwest's management has never explained the reasons behind the trial halt.\nThe company did eventually perform the interim analyses in 2017 and 2018, but released the results unblinded. When it comes to deadly diseases with significant unmet needs, clinical trials can be stopped early if the experimental drug meets the primary endpoint for ethical reasons. That did not happen with DCVax-L on both occasions.\nLast October, Northwest finally announced that the trial was coming to its end and that data was to be sent for statistical analysis. It's been more than nine months since the announcement, and no news. But, again, from an ethical endpoint, if DCVax-L was working, it doesn't make sense that Northwest wouldn't release top-line data and rush the drug to approval to save lives.\nShareholders should be expecting a lot of pain ahead, as the company inexplicably has a market cap of $1.27 billion -- with an unpromising candidate and less than $35 million in total assets. All of this makes Northwest's fate look eerily similar to that of Cel-Sci -- and a stock to stay away from for good.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":492,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":157988300,"gmtCreate":1625559877500,"gmtModify":1703743720670,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Risk of Chinese mobile app businesses..&nbsp;","listText":"Risk of Chinese mobile app businesses..&nbsp;","text":"Risk of Chinese mobile app businesses..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/157988300","repostId":"1145795655","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":399,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":152510412,"gmtCreate":1625309792436,"gmtModify":1703740302837,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hope its real tips..&nbsp;","listText":"Hope its real tips..&nbsp;","text":"Hope its real tips..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/152510412","repostId":"2148725958","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2148725958","pubTimestamp":1625227829,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2148725958?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-02 20:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks Cathie Wood Is Selling That Could Still Make You Rich","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2148725958","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It's not always the best move to copy what the successful investor does.","content":"<p>L.A.

It's also easy to envision this stock making investors much wealthier over the next decade and beyond.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":470,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":158995929,"gmtCreate":1625119424361,"gmtModify":1703736541648,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy buy!!","listText":"Buy buy buy!!","text":"Buy buy buy!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/158995929","repostId":"2147581409","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":208,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":159324091,"gmtCreate":1624942919413,"gmtModify":1703848519428,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Robotics with loads of potential ridingnon hype of automation..","listText":"Robotics with loads of potential ridingnon hype of automation..","text":"Robotics with loads of potential ridingnon hype of automation..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/159324091","repostId":"2147853075","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":274,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127914858,"gmtCreate":1624814145874,"gmtModify":1703845483224,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy buy","listText":"Buy buy buy","text":"Buy buy buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/127914858","repostId":"2146070550","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":257,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127914315,"gmtCreate":1624814099137,"gmtModify":1703845485003,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple strategies are very short term.

Instead, it will offer 3 months.\nAlso in July, the first subscribers to activate Apple's promotional offer will start to be automatically billed for the service after watching its shows for nearly 21 months for free.\nApple still has a much smaller content library than rivals such as Netflix and Disney.\n\nThe training wheels are about to come off for Apple TV+, the company's streaming video service.\nApple TV+ costs $4.99 per month. It's also bundled with other Apple services like Music and iCloud in packages called Apple One starting at $14.95 per month. But a lot of subscribers aren't paying.\nApple gave away a huge number of Apple TV+ of subscriptions to get the service off the ground. Starting in September 2019, anyone who bought an Apple product — an iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, or Apple Watch — got one year of Apple TV+ for free. During the pandemic, Apple extended the offer twice for people whose trial periods were about to expire.\nThe majority of Apple TV+ subscribers are still on the promotional offer, with 62% of current subscribers accessing Apple TV+ through a promotional package, according to survey data by Moffatt Nathanson published in January. Apple hasn't said how many subscribers the service has, but it has sold hundreds of millions of iPhones and other gadgets since late 2019.\nNow Apple is starting to wean Apple TV+ subscribers off the free plan.\nOn July 1, people who buy Apple products will be eligible for only 3 months of free Apple TV+, instead of a year, and people who already cashed on the trial can't get it again. Also during July, the first subscribers to activate the promotional offer will start to be automatically billed for the service after having access to its shows for nearly 21 months for free.\nThis creates a huge test for Apple.\nWill the millions of users currently on a free trial end up signing up for the $5 per month service or an Apple bundle because they can't go without Apple's shows? Or will they cancel?\nOthers may simply forget that they were on the trial and not immediately notice the new charges.\nApple reducing its reliance on free trials for Apple TV+ is a \"critical point\" for the service, said Parks Associates analyst Steve Cason, who follows the streaming industry.\n\"For newer or smaller services, partnerships and promotions are an invaluable customer acquisition tool,\" Cason said. \"A large percentage of folks follow through, they truly love the service and continue it. Or they forget they gave the service their credit card.\"\nFewer TV shows and movies than rivals\nApple TV+ has always had fewer hours of movies and TV compared to other streaming services, which may be a reason why it debuted with a lower price, versus to $8 per month for Disney+ or $8.99 for a standard Netflix plan.\nWhen Apple TV+ was launched in November 2019, it had nine original, Apple-backed shows and movies. Now it has around 87 original TV shows, movies and documentaries. That’s nowhere near what other services offer.\nHulu, for example, has thousands of shows, according to Reelgood data, many of which already have large fanbases because they were broadcast on TV.Netflix and Amazon Prime Video both have more than 1,000 licensed and original shows for customers to watch.\nApple has not licensed any non-exclusive shows for its service, and instead is only offering shows it financially backed. It hasn’t spent to buy media companies to fill out its back catalog, unlike Amazon, which recently agreed to acquire MGM Studios.\nMost of Apple’s shows star big-named producers and actors, such as Oprah and Steven Spielberg. However, talent is not exclusively tied to the company. Oprah’s biggest interview in recent memory, with Prince Harry, was broadcast on CBS. Steven Spielberg recently signed a deal with Netflix, too.\nStreaming ratings are notoriously secretive, and Apple’s never revealed how many viewers any of its shows have.\nWhen Apple executives are asked about the success of its content, they point to award nominations. In a press release last week,Apple said that its original shows have received 112 awards and 389 nominations, including Critics Choice awards, Golden Globes, and Oscars.\n“No matter what device you enjoy it from, it is a milestone period for Apple TV+, racking up many new award nominations and wins, including its first Oscar nominations,” Apple CEO Tim Cook said on a call with analysts in April.\nCook went on to praise one show in particular, “Ted Lasso,” which looks like Apple TV+‘s first big hit. The breezy comedy about an American soccer coach, which was based on an NBC advertisement poking fun at Americans’ ignorance about soccer, found a fanbase with its low-stakes banter.\n“Ted Lasso” season 2 will premier on July 23 and Apple will release new episodes weekly with an aim to get current subscribers on the trial hooked and potentially find new subscribers.\nA promotional email sent to subscribers this week highlights “Ted Lasso” in addition to a second season of “The Morning Show” starring Jennifer Aniston premiering in September. The email also promoted shows that have yet to premier, such as a comedy starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd called “The Shrink Next Door” and the sci-fi series “Foundation” based on Issac Asimov’s books.\nStill, “Ted Lasso” is a 30-minute comedy with only 10 episodes currently available, and overall, Apple’s library of content still trails far behind rivals.\n“Apple’s not in a position of strength here,” Moffett Nathanson’s Michael Nathanson said. “Although they have some excellent shows, they lack the scale of new releases, tentpole titles and a deep library to really create a large profitable business at this point.”\nPart of a whole\nIt’s hard to figure out how Apple TV+ stacks up to Disney or Netflix in terms of subscribers because Apple doesn’t release stats.\nNetflix has 208 million subscribers around the world. It would also be surprising if Apple can match Disney+’s 100 million subscribers, which it has built since Apple TV+ debuted.\nAnalysts are reluctant to offer estimates, but based on the number of smartphones Apple sells per year, tens of millions of people could have taken the promotional offer for Apple TV. Apple sold 206 million iPhones globally in 2020,according to an IDC estimate, and that doesn’t include the other Apple products that come with a free trial.\nEleven percent of U.S. households with a high-speed internet connection subscribe to Apple TV+, according to Parks Associates survey data. There are about 103 million households with broadband,according to Census data.\nThe percent of subscribers who could end up churning is also foggy. A Moffett Nathanson analysis of survey data suggests 29% percent of Apple TV+ subscribers don’t plan to renew and 41% aren’t sure yet. Only 30% said they planned to continue subscribing to Apple TV+.\nBut Apple never said it planned to take on Netflix, Cason said, so the total number of subscribers may not be that important to the company. He thinks that Apple TV+ is another one of several services designed to get users hooked on iPhones and Apple services, in line with Apple’s overall corporate strategy.\n“Apple wants to get you into their ecosystem through a device purchase, and once you get in there, they go, ‘We’ll give you Apple TV+. We also have Apple Music, podcasts, news, fitness, you can bundle them or you buy them separate,’” Cason said.\nIn fact, that’s how Apple thinks about its subscriber numbers. It said in April that it has 660 million paid subscribers across its services — but that also includes anyone who’s subscribed to an app through App Store billing.\nApple TV+ gives the company commercial-free content it can use to promote new audio and visual standards it builds into its products. For example, when Apple TV+ shows first debuted, they supported a Dolby HDR standard that produced better image quality when viewed through a supported Apple player. The next year, Apple announced that iPhones can film video using Dolby Vision HDR.\nMore recently, Apple launched a feature called spatial audio that works like advanced surround sound when listening on certain Apple headphones. Apple TV+ shows and movies support spatial audio, giving Apple customers the ability to watch a show in it without the company making sure that supported content is available from rivals.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127915279,"gmtCreate":1624813889891,"gmtModify":1703845482093,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"NIO","listText":"NIO","text":"NIO","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/127915279","repostId":"1137119316","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137119316","pubTimestamp":1624754401,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137119316?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-27 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Ford Or NIO?

Which vehicle maker offers the best deal based on market opportunity, scale, revenue model, growth prospects and valuation? I will compare Ford against NIO in each category and issue a final verdict at the end.</p>\n<p><b>Ford vs. NIO: The battle for the global electric vehicle market is heating up</b></p>\n<p>Although there is a world of difference between Ford and NIO, both companies are set to go toe-to-toe in the rapidly growing global electric vehicle market. Ford’s fleet is not yet EV-focused but this is going to change: Feeling that the EV race is heating up, Ford said it is accelerating its electrification plan by investing&nbsp;$30B into its EV manufacturing capabilities until 2025. Ford’s previous capital plan called for a $22B investment in zero-emission vehicles. Ford also set an ambitious sales goal: 40% of its global sales will be electric within the next decade and 33% of pickup truck sales. Electric vehicle sales account for just 1% of Ford's sales today. As Ford is phasing out combustion engines, it is set to evolve into an all-electric vehicle maker by 2040.</p>\n<p><b>Market opportunity</b></p>\n<p>In 2020, 3.2m electric vehicles were sold in the world which represented a small market share of just 4.2%. China, however, was responsible for buying 41% of all electric vehicles in the world in 2020. Chinese buyers purchased 1.3m electric vehicles last year and sales are set to grow fast as Beijing seeks to boost EV adoption. The second largest market for electric vehicles was Europe which accounted for 42% of global EV sales. The US is only the third-largest market for plug-in electric vehicles in the world.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b48c23b32134542f51227d9b1b612887\" tg-width=\"1083\" tg-height=\"863\"><span>(Source: Wikipedia)</span></p>\n<p>China, by far, is the fastest growing EV market in the world, although Europe is catching up fast, in part due to a legislative efforts to increase adoption of zero-emission passenger vehicles and because of massive investments in a Europe-wide charging station network. NIO is&nbsp;on the cusp of entering the European market&nbsp;in a bid to grow market share in the world’s second-largest EV market before the competition is ready.</p>\n<p>Beijing is a driver behind the electrification of the Chinese auto industry: The government wants to see a&nbsp;twenty percent share&nbsp;of electric vehicles for new car sales by 2025 which will drive EV penetration in NIO’s home market.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9871e44eaf69adb27151425887870ace\" tg-width=\"739\" tg-height=\"454\"><span>(Source:Schroders)</span></p>\n<p>Turning to growth projections.</p>\n<p>With more favorable government policies for EV makers in places like China and Europe, these markets are poised to see the fastest sales growth and the highest EV adoption rates in the world. China is not only the largest market due to population size but is also expected to outperform all other markets in the world in EV sales until 2030.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61d19dff2f34e2d8828aca854e85d84a\" tg-width=\"825\" tg-height=\"565\"><span>(Source:McKinsey)</span></p>\n<p>Since China has a larger total market size, a higher EV adoption rate, stronger expected sales growth and a more favorable regulatory framework, the winner here would be: NIO.</p>\n<p><b>Scale and manufacturing competence</b></p>\n<p>Ford has a century’s worth of manufacturing experience. But Ford, so far, has only one all-electric vehicle in its product line-up that compares to NIO: The Mustang Mach-E SUV. In 2022, Ford will begin to sell the all-electric F-150 Lightening which builds on the success of Ford’s best-selling pick-up truck. NIO already has a stronger product catalog including the 5-seater ES6 SUV, the 5-seater coupe SUV EC6 and the ES8, a 6-seater and 7-seater full-sized SUV.</p>\n<p>Since NIO is solely focused on producing EVs and occupies a very small and defined niche, the Chinese firm has an advantage as far as EV-manufacturing expertise goes. The question is how long this advantage can last. Ford has extensive experience in building cars and can leverage a global manufacturing base to ramp up EV production faster than any niche EV maker could ever hope to achieve. This makes Ford a very serious rival not only to Tesla (TSLA) in the US, but also to NIO abroad. Ford is accelerating its electrification plans and it has the resources and the ambition to become a leader in EVs within the next decade. Ford’s proposed $30B spending on the electrification of its fleet will accelerate its transformation and turn Ford into a long term threat to other EV makers.</p>\n<p>Winner here: Ford.</p>\n<p><b>Differentiation and BaaS revenue model</b></p>\n<p>Both Ford and NIO know about the importance of differentiation in a market that will only get more competitive over time, which is why both companies are investing heavily in a related field that can break or solidify dominance in the EV market: Battery technology.</p>\n<p>Ford is&nbsp;forming a joint venture&nbsp;with South Korean battery technology company SK Innovation to secure supply of traction battery cells and array modules. The joint venture is meant to accelerate battery deliveries and will produce approximately 60 GWh annually, enough to cover 25% of Ford’s estimated annual energy demand by 2030. NIO is also investing in battery technology and has&nbsp;formed its own joint venture&nbsp;to secure battery supply.</p>\n<p>The difference to Ford is that NIO’s battery investment strategy revolves around a battery subscription model, also called “battery-as-a-service”, which creates a strong, long term revenue opportunity for the Chinese vehicle maker. Under this “BaaS” model, users who buy a NIO electric vehicle get a 70,000 RMB initial discount, equivalent to $10,800, and can sign up for a monthly subscription to rent a rechargeable 70 kWh battery. Batteries can then be exchanged at one of NIO’s battery-swapping stations which can be found in most big Chinese cities. A battery subscription costs 980 RMB monthly which is the equivalent of $150.</p>\n<p>The BaaS model has a couple of benefits for both the vehicle maker and the user: Purchasing an electric vehicle from NIO gets a lot more affordable due to the up-front discount and the subscription model ensures that users benefit from advancement in battery technology and better performance over time. Decoupling battery costs from vehicle prices creates an entirely new revenue stream on a subscription basis for NIO. Revenues from “BaaS” subscriptions could be used to increase the density of NIO’s network of charging/replacement stations. The battery subscription model also binds customers to NIO, potentially increasing customer lifetime value.</p>\n<p>Ford and NIO are primed to benefit from falling battery costs for electric vehicles as they ramp up capital allocations. As more investments flow into developing more efficient batteries, performance will go up and costs will go down which should drive EV adoption and benefit all EV makers.

Which vehicle maker offers the best deal based on market opportunity, scale, revenue model, growth prospects and valuation? I will compare Ford against NIO in each category and issue a final verdict at the end.\nFord vs. NIO: The battle for the global electric vehicle market is heating up\nAlthough there is a world of difference between Ford and NIO, both companies are set to go toe-to-toe in the rapidly growing global electric vehicle market. Ford’s fleet is not yet EV-focused but this is going to change: Feeling that the EV race is heating up, Ford said it is accelerating its electrification plan by investing $30B into its EV manufacturing capabilities until 2025. Ford’s previous capital plan called for a $22B investment in zero-emission vehicles. Ford also set an ambitious sales goal: 40% of its global sales will be electric within the next decade and 33% of pickup truck sales. Electric vehicle sales account for just 1% of Ford's sales today. As Ford is phasing out combustion engines, it is set to evolve into an all-electric vehicle maker by 2040.\nMarket opportunity\nIn 2020, 3.2m electric vehicles were sold in the world which represented a small market share of just 4.2%. China, however, was responsible for buying 41% of all electric vehicles in the world in 2020. Chinese buyers purchased 1.3m electric vehicles last year and sales are set to grow fast as Beijing seeks to boost EV adoption. The second largest market for electric vehicles was Europe which accounted for 42% of global EV sales. The US is only the third-largest market for plug-in electric vehicles in the world.\n(Source: Wikipedia)\nChina, by far, is the fastest growing EV market in the world, although Europe is catching up fast, in part due to a legislative efforts to increase adoption of zero-emission passenger vehicles and because of massive investments in a Europe-wide charging station network. NIO is on the cusp of entering the European market in a bid to grow market share in the world’s second-largest EV market before the competition is ready.\nBeijing is a driver behind the electrification of the Chinese auto industry: The government wants to see a twenty percent share of electric vehicles for new car sales by 2025 which will drive EV penetration in NIO’s home market.\n(Source:Schroders)\nTurning to growth projections.\nWith more favorable government policies for EV makers in places like China and Europe, these markets are poised to see the fastest sales growth and the highest EV adoption rates in the world. China is not only the largest market due to population size but is also expected to outperform all other markets in the world in EV sales until 2030.\n(Source:McKinsey)\nSince China has a larger total market size, a higher EV adoption rate, stronger expected sales growth and a more favorable regulatory framework, the winner here would be: NIO.\nScale and manufacturing competence\nFord has a century’s worth of manufacturing experience. But Ford, so far, has only one all-electric vehicle in its product line-up that compares to NIO: The Mustang Mach-E SUV. In 2022, Ford will begin to sell the all-electric F-150 Lightening which builds on the success of Ford’s best-selling pick-up truck. NIO already has a stronger product catalog including the 5-seater ES6 SUV, the 5-seater coupe SUV EC6 and the ES8, a 6-seater and 7-seater full-sized SUV.\nSince NIO is solely focused on producing EVs and occupies a very small and defined niche, the Chinese firm has an advantage as far as EV-manufacturing expertise goes. The question is how long this advantage can last. Ford has extensive experience in building cars and can leverage a global manufacturing base to ramp up EV production faster than any niche EV maker could ever hope to achieve. This makes Ford a very serious rival not only to Tesla (TSLA) in the US, but also to NIO abroad. Ford is accelerating its electrification plans and it has the resources and the ambition to become a leader in EVs within the next decade. Ford’s proposed $30B spending on the electrification of its fleet will accelerate its transformation and turn Ford into a long term threat to other EV makers.\nWinner here: Ford.\nDifferentiation and BaaS revenue model\nBoth Ford and NIO know about the importance of differentiation in a market that will only get more competitive over time, which is why both companies are investing heavily in a related field that can break or solidify dominance in the EV market: Battery technology.\nFord is forming a joint venture with South Korean battery technology company SK Innovation to secure supply of traction battery cells and array modules. The joint venture is meant to accelerate battery deliveries and will produce approximately 60 GWh annually, enough to cover 25% of Ford’s estimated annual energy demand by 2030. NIO is also investing in battery technology and has formed its own joint venture to secure battery supply.\nThe difference to Ford is that NIO’s battery investment strategy revolves around a battery subscription model, also called “battery-as-a-service”, which creates a strong, long term revenue opportunity for the Chinese vehicle maker. Under this “BaaS” model, users who buy a NIO electric vehicle get a 70,000 RMB initial discount, equivalent to $10,800, and can sign up for a monthly subscription to rent a rechargeable 70 kWh battery. Batteries can then be exchanged at one of NIO’s battery-swapping stations which can be found in most big Chinese cities. A battery subscription costs 980 RMB monthly which is the equivalent of $150.\nThe BaaS model has a couple of benefits for both the vehicle maker and the user: Purchasing an electric vehicle from NIO gets a lot more affordable due to the up-front discount and the subscription model ensures that users benefit from advancement in battery technology and better performance over time. Decoupling battery costs from vehicle prices creates an entirely new revenue stream on a subscription basis for NIO. Revenues from “BaaS” subscriptions could be used to increase the density of NIO’s network of charging/replacement stations. The battery subscription model also binds customers to NIO, potentially increasing customer lifetime value.\nFord and NIO are primed to benefit from falling battery costs for electric vehicles as they ramp up capital allocations. As more investments flow into developing more efficient batteries, performance will go up and costs will go down which should drive EV adoption and benefit all EV makers. This is because lower battery prices make EVs more competitive to passenger vehicles with combustion engines. But since NIO is structuring a part of its business model explicitly around battery subscriptions, NIO could benefit more than Ford.\nBattery costs for EVs have decreased 70% since 2014, based on information provided by investment firm Schroders, and are set to decrease more this decade.\n(Source: Schroders)\nThe “BaaS” model is genius and could develop into a $500M a year revenue opportunity for NIO long term. Although Ford is ramping up its investments in battery technology, the winner in this category is: NIO.\nSales growth and valuation\nFord’s sales in May grew 4.1% Y/Y but electrified vehicle sales (including hybrids) surged 184% Y/Y as Ford sold a record 10,364 EVs/hybrids in May. Escape electrified sales and Explorer Hybrid grew sales at 125% and 132% Y/Y showing strong customer uptake. NIO delivered 6,711 vehicles last month including 3,017 ES6s, 1,412 ES8s and 2,282 EC6s. Total Y/Y delivery growth for May was 95.3%.\nFord's sales are fifty-four times larger than NIO's which creates more sales growth and revaluation potential for NIO.\nData by YCharts\nThe difference in valuation between Ford and NIO is like the difference between night and day. This is because Ford is still seen as a mature vehicle maker with expected enterprise sales growth in the low-to-mid digits, despite explosive growth in the EV category. Ford is expected to grow revenues by 33% until FY 2025 (base year: FY 2020) and NIO by 808%!\nDue to these differences in sales growth, NIO is the complete opposite of Ford, at least as far as valuation goes. The Chinese EV-maker is expected to see sales and delivery growth close to 100% this year and since NIO is only dealing in EVs, NIO gets a much higher market-cap-to-sales ratio than Ford.\n(Source: Author)\nNIO has larger risks...\nNIO is the more risky venture, but also the one that offers the most promise.

That said, AMC has rocketed higher since May 7, multiplying by more than five times and surpassing GameStop’s market value—hitting a recent $27 billion compared to GameStop’s $15 billion.\nIt may seem counterintuitive, but the Russell 1000 “promotion” may actually be bad for GameStop’s stock,as Barron’s explained earlier this month.Funds that track the small-capRussell 2000will have to sell GameStop shares on June 28, and funds that track the Russell 1000 will have to buy them. Three times as much money is invested in funds that track the Russell 1000, but GameStop’s overall weight in that index will be much lower than it has been in the Russell 2000. In the Russell 2000, GameStop made up about half a percentage point of the index, while it will be less than 0.1% of the Russell 1000. GameStop will look tiny next to behemoths like Apple(AAPL).\nExperts like Jefferies strategist Steven DeSanctis expect that there will be net selling in GameStop of about 5 million shares, or about half of the stock’s recent average daily volume, after the rebalancing.\nMeanwhile, AMC will be the largest member of the Russell 2000 by far—more than three times as large as its nearest competitor as of last week.

The other still thinks that AAPL shares could drop 40%. Is the sizable downside risk realistic?</p>\n<p>On the first day of September, one of the rare Wall Street bears on Apple stock&nbsp;(<b>AAPL</b>)&nbsp;finally gave in and dropped his sell rating. The last remaining one still&nbsp;sees&nbsp;shares dropping to a price target of $90, representing risk of loss of around 40%.</p>\n<p>Could New Street’s Pierre Ferragu, the last remaining Apple bear on Wall Street, be right about his downside call? The Apple Maven looks a bit closer at the argument.</p>\n<p><b>Why bearish on Apple?</b></p>\n<p>The core of Pierre’s bearish argument&nbsp;seems to be the iPhone. The analyst has called the upcoming device launch a “12S cycle”, arguing that the best of Apple’s iPhone upgrade wave,the so-called 5G super cycle, has been left in the rearview mirror.</p>\n<p>New Street subscribes to the view that the strong iPhone 12 cycle has pulled forward smartphone sales, leaving a gap in demand going forward. Interestingly, this is exactly the&nbsp;opposite opinion of bullish Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, who said the following during an interview with the Apple Maven:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “What the Street underestimates is how massive and elongated this super cycle is. […] 5G does not get fully embraced for the next two or three years, until the networks are built out. In China [where the 5G infrastructure is further ahead], the iPhone 12, especially the larger Pro versions, really sold extremely well.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>Still on the iPhone, Mr. Ferragu laid out his expectations for 2022 back in April (I am unaware of revisions since then). He believes that iPhone shipments will reach 190 million units, suggesting segment revenues of around $150 billion – a modest annual increase of 5% from COVID-19 levels.</p>\n<p><b>Could AAPL sink 40%?</b></p>\n<p>Now, let’s put pen to paper. For Apple stock to be valued at $90 apiece, one of two things would need to happen: either financial performance would need to lag consensus expectations, or valuations would need to contract (or a combination of both).</p>\n<p>On results,Wall Street currently sees&nbsp;fiscal 2022 EPS landing at $5.63, roughly flat against a 2021 that has been impressive so far. For AAPL to drop 40% in price, therefore, next-year earnings would need to miss consensus substantially, by at least a couple of dollars. I find this highly unlikely.</p>\n<p>On valuations, AAPL currently trades at a fiscal 2021 earnings multiple of 27 times.

The other still thinks that AAPL shares could drop 40%. Is the sizable downside risk realistic?\nOn the first day of September, one of the rare Wall Street bears on Apple stock (AAPL) finally gave in and dropped his sell rating. The last remaining one still sees shares dropping to a price target of $90, representing risk of loss of around 40%.\nCould New Street’s Pierre Ferragu, the last remaining Apple bear on Wall Street, be right about his downside call? The Apple Maven looks a bit closer at the argument.\nWhy bearish on Apple?\nThe core of Pierre’s bearish argument seems to be the iPhone. The analyst has called the upcoming device launch a “12S cycle”, arguing that the best of Apple’s iPhone upgrade wave,the so-called 5G super cycle, has been left in the rearview mirror.\nNew Street subscribes to the view that the strong iPhone 12 cycle has pulled forward smartphone sales, leaving a gap in demand going forward. Interestingly, this is exactly the opposite opinion of bullish Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, who said the following during an interview with the Apple Maven:\n\n “What the Street underestimates is how massive and elongated this super cycle is. […] 5G does not get fully embraced for the next two or three years, until the networks are built out. In China [where the 5G infrastructure is further ahead], the iPhone 12, especially the larger Pro versions, really sold extremely well.”\n\nStill on the iPhone, Mr. Ferragu laid out his expectations for 2022 back in April (I am unaware of revisions since then). He believes that iPhone shipments will reach 190 million units, suggesting segment revenues of around $150 billion – a modest annual increase of 5% from COVID-19 levels.\nCould AAPL sink 40%?\nNow, let’s put pen to paper. For Apple stock to be valued at $90 apiece, one of two things would need to happen: either financial performance would need to lag consensus expectations, or valuations would need to contract (or a combination of both).\nOn results,Wall Street currently sees fiscal 2022 EPS landing at $5.63, roughly flat against a 2021 that has been impressive so far. For AAPL to drop 40% in price, therefore, next-year earnings would need to miss consensus substantially, by at least a couple of dollars. I find this highly unlikely.\nOn valuations, AAPL currently trades at a fiscal 2021 earnings multiple of 27 times. Assuming consensus-matching results in the future, this multiple would need to drop to about 16 times for AAPL shares to sink to $90. The stock’s forward P/E has not been this low in years.\nThe Apple Maven’s take\nI find it very improbable, if not virtually impossible, for Apple to ever be valued at $90 per share again. It is much more reasonable, in my opinion, that New Street’s current price target on the stock is simply stale, following AAPL’s 25% rally in the past six months.\nTherefore, I would not be surprised to see Wall Street’s last AAPL bear eventually (soon?) give in on his downside convictions, at least in what pertains to his current price target.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":624,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"content":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well.","text":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well.","html":"Although I will have to add a sharp decline like 40% will be pure speculation for now, as Apple has a string cult following built iver the years as well."}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9909585128,"gmtCreate":1658888659864,"gmtModify":1676536224420,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9909585128","repostId":"1105749171","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":690,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":158995929,"gmtCreate":1625119424361,"gmtModify":1703736541648,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy buy!!","listText":"Buy buy buy!!","text":"Buy buy buy!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/158995929","repostId":"2147581409","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2147581409","pubTimestamp":1625118840,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2147581409?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-01 13:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"This Dividend King Is About to Get a Big Boost From Reopening","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2147581409","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With a unique approach to a vital food-distribution category, this Dividend King is only just starting its recovery.","content":"<p><b>Hormel Foods</b> (NYSE:HRL), with 55 years of annual increases under its belt, doesn't operate like your typical packaged-food maker. The company's unique system was a major headwind during the pandemic-driven shutdowns in 2020. But as the world is starting to reopen again, that difference has already turned into a tailwind. And the benefits aren't over yet. Here's a quick look at what Hormel does differently and why it's set to boost earnings in the quarters ahead.</p>\n<h2>Going direct</h2>\n<p>Hormel is probably best known for its branded-product portfolio, which includes icons like Spam and Skippy. Those are just two of a long list of leading names that can be found across the grocery store. Though it has a heavy focus on protein-related products, the company manages a collection of separate brand-name products. That's worked out fairly well for investors over time; the average annual dividend increase over the past decade was a huge 15%. Looking at that a different way, in 2010 Hormel's full-year dividend was $0.21 per share. In 2020 it was $0.93 per share. That's the magic of compounding.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b6d76002a2eb850d37ca108f7f198fcf\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"333\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>A key piece of the company's success, meanwhile, has been a balanced portfolio. That includes both the products it offers and the segments into which it sells. For example, the recent acquisition of Planters from <b>Kraft Heinz</b> added not just the famous peanut brand but also a larger exposure to convenience stores. That doubled up the diversification benefit. But <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the more notable differences between Hormel and most of its peers is that Hormel has a direct-sales staff dedicated to the foodservice industry. Essentially, it has employees who work directly with restaurants and other food locations, like schools and hotels, to promote its products. It even has brands, like Burke and Cafe H, that are only sold into the foodservice space.</p>\n<p>Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, having this direct connection with foodservice customers provided valuable feedback for Hormel that allowed it to differentiate its products. For example, it developed a high-quality, pre-cooked bacon product (Bacon 1) so that the foodservice space could avoid the time, risk, and expense of cooking greasy bacon. But as restaurants and other out-of-home eating locations were shut down in 2020, this business was a major liability. As recently as the fiscal first quarter of 2021, which ended Jan. 24, foodservice segment sales were down by 17%.</p>\n<h2>That was then, this is now</h2>\n<p>That's just <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> sales avenue for Hormel, with its other business benefiting from more at-home consumption. In that same quarter, U.S. retail sales were up 13%, deli sales increased 7%, and international sales (heavily centered on China) advanced 9%. That left the foodservice business the real standout in a pretty bad way. In the fiscal second quarter, however, foodservice turned around, with sales up 28%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9afe4230b9f9ac9439297f45b32277d7\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"483\"><span>HRL data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>To be fair, that was off a low base, given the pandemic, but it more than offset the flat performance during the quarter in the U.S. retail segment (deli and international both saw continued growth). But the really interesting thing here is that compared to the same quarter in 2019, Hormel's foodservice sales were up 1%. So the business not only rebounded from the 2020 hit, it grew just a touch over the two-year period.&nbsp;During Hormel's fiscal second-quarter 2021 earnings conference call, CEO James Snee noted:</p>\n<blockquote>\n We have a very positive outlook on the foodservice business, as we head into the second half of the year. We are well-positioned from an inventory and capacity standpoint to meet the demand from our distributor partners and operators and are confident in our ability to gain share throughout the recovery.\n</blockquote>\n<p>When pressed by an analyst on the matter, CFO James Sheehan added:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Now for us where we see future opportunities in a number of our segments, we haven't seen lodging come back. We really haven't seen college and university fully come back, which is a big part of our Hormel foodservice business. I referenced K-12 for the Jennie-O foodservice business. So, there's still a lot of dynamics at play. And so even as these other segments, these other channels really start to reopen those are going to have a favorable impact on our foodservice business as well.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Put simply, the company's foodservice business is already back to pre-pandemic levels, and it's not even firing on all cylinders. As the reopening continues to move forward, Hormel's foodservice business looks like it will become an increasingly important growth engine.</p>\n<h2>The big takeaway</h2>\n<p>As the pandemic raged, Hormel's foodservice business was a drag that left it trailing packaged-food peers with a heavier focus on grocery stores.

Make sure you pay close attention to this business when Hormel next reports earnings; it should make for good reading. Indeed, Hormel isn't exactly your normal food maker, but that looks like it will be a very good thing in the quarters ahead.</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>This Dividend King Is About to Get a Big Boost From Reopening</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\">\nThis Dividend King Is About to Get a Big Boost From Reopening\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-01 13:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/30/this-dividend-king-is-about-to-get-a-big-boost-fro/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Hormel Foods (NYSE:HRL), with 55 years of annual increases under its belt, doesn't operate like your typical packaged-food maker.

Indeed, Hormel isn't exactly your normal food maker, but that looks like it will be a very good thing in the quarters ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":208,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127915279,"gmtCreate":1624813889891,"gmtModify":1703845482093,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"NIO","listText":"NIO","text":"NIO","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/127915279","repostId":"1137119316","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137119316","pubTimestamp":1624754401,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137119316?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-27 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Ford Or NIO?

I will compare Ford against NIO in each category and issue a final verdict at the end.</p>\n<p><b>Ford vs. NIO: The battle for the global electric vehicle market is heating up</b></p>\n<p>Although there is a world of difference between Ford and NIO, both companies are set to go toe-to-toe in the rapidly growing global electric vehicle market. Ford’s fleet is not yet EV-focused but this is going to change: Feeling that the EV race is heating up, Ford said it is accelerating its electrification plan by investing&nbsp;$30B into its EV manufacturing capabilities until 2025. Ford’s previous capital plan called for a $22B investment in zero-emission vehicles. Ford also set an ambitious sales goal: 40% of its global sales will be electric within the next decade and 33% of pickup truck sales. Electric vehicle sales account for just 1% of Ford's sales today. As Ford is phasing out combustion engines, it is set to evolve into an all-electric vehicle maker by 2040.</p>\n<p><b>Market opportunity</b></p>\n<p>In 2020, 3.2m electric vehicles were sold in the world which represented a small market share of just 4.2%. China, however, was responsible for buying 41% of all electric vehicles in the world in 2020. Chinese buyers purchased 1.3m electric vehicles last year and sales are set to grow fast as Beijing seeks to boost EV adoption. The second largest market for electric vehicles was Europe which accounted for 42% of global EV sales. The US is only the third-largest market for plug-in electric vehicles in the world.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b48c23b32134542f51227d9b1b612887\" tg-width=\"1083\" tg-height=\"863\"><span>(Source: Wikipedia)</span></p>\n<p>China, by far, is the fastest growing EV market in the world, although Europe is catching up fast, in part due to a legislative efforts to increase adoption of zero-emission passenger vehicles and because of massive investments in a Europe-wide charging station network. NIO is&nbsp;on the cusp of entering the European market&nbsp;in a bid to grow market share in the world’s second-largest EV market before the competition is ready.</p>\n<p>Beijing is a driver behind the electrification of the Chinese auto industry: The government wants to see a&nbsp;twenty percent share&nbsp;of electric vehicles for new car sales by 2025 which will drive EV penetration in NIO’s home market.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9871e44eaf69adb27151425887870ace\" tg-width=\"739\" tg-height=\"454\"><span>(Source:Schroders)</span></p>\n<p>Turning to growth projections.</p>\n<p>With more favorable government policies for EV makers in places like China and Europe, these markets are poised to see the fastest sales growth and the highest EV adoption rates in the world. China is not only the largest market due to population size but is also expected to outperform all other markets in the world in EV sales until 2030.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61d19dff2f34e2d8828aca854e85d84a\" tg-width=\"825\" tg-height=\"565\"><span>(Source:McKinsey)</span></p>\n<p>Since China has a larger total market size, a higher EV adoption rate, stronger expected sales growth and a more favorable regulatory framework, the winner here would be: NIO.</p>\n<p><b>Scale and manufacturing competence</b></p>\n<p>Ford has a century’s worth of manufacturing experience. But Ford, so far, has only one all-electric vehicle in its product line-up that compares to NIO: The Mustang Mach-E SUV. In 2022, Ford will begin to sell the all-electric F-150 Lightening which builds on the success of Ford’s best-selling pick-up truck. NIO already has a stronger product catalog including the 5-seater ES6 SUV, the 5-seater coupe SUV EC6 and the ES8, a 6-seater and 7-seater full-sized SUV.</p>\n<p>Since NIO is solely focused on producing EVs and occupies a very small and defined niche, the Chinese firm has an advantage as far as EV-manufacturing expertise goes. The question is how long this advantage can last. Ford has extensive experience in building cars and can leverage a global manufacturing base to ramp up EV production faster than any niche EV maker could ever hope to achieve. This makes Ford a very serious rival not only to Tesla (TSLA) in the US, but also to NIO abroad. Ford is accelerating its electrification plans and it has the resources and the ambition to become a leader in EVs within the next decade. Ford’s proposed $30B spending on the electrification of its fleet will accelerate its transformation and turn Ford into a long term threat to other EV makers.</p>\n<p>Winner here: Ford.</p>\n<p><b>Differentiation and BaaS revenue model</b></p>\n<p>Both Ford and NIO know about the importance of differentiation in a market that will only get more competitive over time, which is why both companies are investing heavily in a related field that can break or solidify dominance in the EV market: Battery technology.</p>\n<p>Ford is&nbsp;forming a joint venture&nbsp;with South Korean battery technology company SK Innovation to secure supply of traction battery cells and array modules. The joint venture is meant to accelerate battery deliveries and will produce approximately 60 GWh annually, enough to cover 25% of Ford’s estimated annual energy demand by 2030. NIO is also investing in battery technology and has&nbsp;formed its own joint venture&nbsp;to secure battery supply.</p>\n<p>The difference to Ford is that NIO’s battery investment strategy revolves around a battery subscription model, also called “battery-as-a-service”, which creates a strong, long term revenue opportunity for the Chinese vehicle maker. Under this “BaaS” model, users who buy a NIO electric vehicle get a 70,000 RMB initial discount, equivalent to $10,800, and can sign up for a monthly subscription to rent a rechargeable 70 kWh battery. Batteries can then be exchanged at one of NIO’s battery-swapping stations which can be found in most big Chinese cities. A battery subscription costs 980 RMB monthly which is the equivalent of $150.</p>\n<p>The BaaS model has a couple of benefits for both the vehicle maker and the user: Purchasing an electric vehicle from NIO gets a lot more affordable due to the up-front discount and the subscription model ensures that users benefit from advancement in battery technology and better performance over time. Decoupling battery costs from vehicle prices creates an entirely new revenue stream on a subscription basis for NIO. Revenues from “BaaS” subscriptions could be used to increase the density of NIO’s network of charging/replacement stations. The battery subscription model also binds customers to NIO, potentially increasing customer lifetime value.</p>\n<p>Ford and NIO are primed to benefit from falling battery costs for electric vehicles as they ramp up capital allocations. As more investments flow into developing more efficient batteries, performance will go up and costs will go down which should drive EV adoption and benefit all EV makers. This is because lower battery prices make EVs more competitive to passenger vehicles with combustion engines. But since NIO is structuring a part of its business model explicitly around battery subscriptions, NIO could benefit more than Ford.</p>\n<p>Battery costs for EVs have decreased 70% since 2014, based on information provided by investment firm Schroders, and are set to decrease more this decade.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c42acb75905affe7570a2f399ea3192f\" tg-width=\"758\" tg-height=\"449\"><span>(Source: Schroders)</span></p>\n<p>The “BaaS” model is genius and could develop into a $500M a year revenue opportunity for NIO long term. Although Ford is ramping up its investments in battery technology, the winner in this category is: NIO.</p>\n<p><b>Sales growth and valuation</b></p>\n<p>Ford’s sales in May grew 4.1% Y/Y but electrified vehicle sales (including hybrids) surged 184% Y/Y as Ford sold a record 10,364 EVs/hybrids in May. Escape electrified sales and Explorer Hybrid grew sales at 125% and 132% Y/Y showing strong customer uptake. NIO delivered 6,711 vehicles last month including 3,017 ES6s, 1,412 ES8s and 2,282 EC6s. Total Y/Y delivery growth for May was 95.3%.</p>\n<p>Ford's sales are fifty-four times larger than NIO's which creates more sales growth and revaluation potential for NIO.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df5a0a393e44ed74241c5effcdd92350\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"419\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>The difference in valuation between Ford and NIO is like the difference between night and day. This is because Ford is still seen as a mature vehicle maker with expected enterprise sales growth in the low-to-mid digits, despite explosive growth in the EV category. Ford is expected to grow revenues by 33% until FY 2025 (base year: FY 2020) and NIO by 808%!</p>\n<p>Due to these differences in sales growth, NIO is the complete opposite of Ford, at least as far as valuation goes. The Chinese EV-maker is expected to see sales and delivery growth close to 100% this year and since NIO is only dealing in EVs, NIO gets a much higher market-cap-to-sales ratio than Ford.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/817605c6b1e82c03d0473ea570d32b8f\" tg-width=\"506\" tg-height=\"406\"><span>(Source: Author)</span></p>\n<p><b>NIO has larger risks...</b></p>\n<p>NIO is the more risky venture, but also the one that offers the most promise. Government policy favors EV-makers like NIO. The potential for total global sales growth is larger for NIO as it operates from a smaller revenue base compared to Ford. But there are also a few things that work against NIO. For example, recalls due to production defects would be a much bigger challenge for NIO to overcome than for Ford which can rely on a global service and distribution network. NIO’s valuation is also not without risk as an unexpected slowing of sales growth due to production setbacks would leave a much larger dent in the financials.</p>\n<p><b>Final verdict</b></p>\n<p>NIO is definitely the more “sexy” vehicle maker. Strong adoption and sales growth in China and Europe support NIO. Its super smart BaaS model which decouples vehicle purchase prices from battery costs is genius. You pay a high price for this growth but the market opportunity for NIO is immense.</p>\n<p>Ford’s EV sales are booming and the percentage of EV sales will increase as the vehicle maker electrifies its fleet. Ford has a lot of potential in the EV market but since EV sales are still a relatively low percentage of total sales, it will take a long time for Ford to complete its transformation.</p>\n<p>If you believe in the potential of the global EV market, buy NIO. If you believe in the potential of the global EV market and don’t like much risk, buy Ford.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Ford Or NIO?

Cel-Sci</h2>\n<p>Sometimes, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> is dealt a bad hand in life and will need to bluff. However, it's a whole different story to double down on a bluff after <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>'s cover is blown.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Take the case of&nbsp;<b>Cel-Sci&nbsp;</b>(NYSEMKT:CVM), a small-cap biotech with a single late-stage immunotherapy candidate (Multikine) for treating head and neck cancer. On June 28, Cel-Sci announced that Multikine failed to achieve the primary endpoint of boosting patient survival by 10% compared to standard-of-care treatments in a decade-long phase 3 trial. As a result, the stock lost 66% of its value within four days, to $8.65.</p>\n<p>It's pretty hard to walk away from a giant bluff when there's just too much in the pot. In a conference call to investors on July 1, CEO Geert Kersten heralded the study as a \"success,\" saying that a cohort of patients who received Multikine plus surgery plus radiotherapy \"met the primary endpoint,\" and that Cel-Sci plans to file for regulatory approval. Later on in the call, chief scientific officer Taylor Eval denied all allegations the company was data-mining the study. On a side note, Kersten said he will \"not be releasing the [full] data to shareholders.\"</p>\n<p>The data that management is referring to is from a subgroup of patients in the Multikine cohort who did not receive chemotherapy in the study. This group of patients survived 14.3% longer after five years than the group who received no Multikine at all -- but that does not mean Multikine works on patients without chemotherapy. It has nothing to do with the study's primary endpoint (which includes both patients who did and did not receive chemotherapy). So the data-mining here is, in fact, pretty evident.</p>\n<p>It's also very easy to see how the drug could have a placebo effect. In clinical trials, Multikine was injected in or around the tumor. In case one was wondering, injecting just about anything into a tumor causes the cancer cells to die off -- partly due to needle damage. Moreover, patients in the 9.5-year study received Multikine for just three weeks and were not treated with the drug if their cancer relapsed. So anything (such as lifestyle choices, receiving other immunotherapies post-relapse, etc.) could have been behind the survival difference in the subgroups.</p>\n<p>Before the results came out (which took over a year), Cel-Sci bagged $31.7 million in cash by selling new stock to retail investors, resulting in heavy losses for shareholders less than three weeks after the deal closed. Overall, given the failure of its flagship candidate, the less than $50 million in assets on its books, and questionable conduct from management, this is definitely a biotech you don't want to be holding anytime soon (if not ever).&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>2. CytoDyn&nbsp;</h2>\n<p><b>CytoDyn</b> (OTC:CYDY) is a biotech known for developing leronlimab, an antibody that failed two phase 3 clinical studies for treating COVID-19. In May, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) even released a rare statement saying that the drug did not meet the primary endpoints in these studies.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>In response, CEO Nader Pourhassan has adopted a \"catch me if you can\" type of strategy. In other words, CytoDyn simply moved outside of the FDA's jurisdiction and began commercializing the drug in countries like the Philippines.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>It's perplexing as to why the company would risk its relationship with the FDA like this. Aside from the COVID-19 indication, leronlimab is also under investigation for the treatment of HIV. In one study, leronlimab reduced viral load to negligible levels in 83% of patients with HIV.</p>\n<p>I wouldn't be surprised if the rivalry between Pourhassan and the FDA has gone down to the personal level. Last July, the FDA rejected CytoDyn's Biologic License Application (BLA) filing for leronlimab's approval for treating HIV. But the agency did not ask for another clinical trial; it just wanted additional information about the drug and a meeting with company management. CytoDyn has just begun the process to resubmit its BLA on July 1, almost a year later.</p>\n<p>At the end of the day, biotechs with sketchy science and management woes shouldn't be trading at a $1 billion market cap. Take note that CytoDyn has less than $150 million in total assets, leaving shareholders with little recourse in case of further blunders.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>3. Northwest Biotherapeutics&nbsp;</h2>\n<p><b>Northwest Biotherapeutics</b>&nbsp;(OTC:NWBO) is a company that closely mirrors Cel-Sci in terms of both its science and stock price. Its management is also even more \"audacious\" than that of the previous companies.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The company's flagship candidate is an immunotherapy known as DCVax-L, which is under investigation for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, the most deadly form of brain cancer. The phase 3 study has been going on since December 2006 (almost 15 years now). It was originally a phase 2 study, but the company \"phase-shifted\" it to 3, citing difficulty in finding patients who are comfortable taking a placebo for the deadly illness.</p>\n<p>The study had numerous red flags from the start. Northwest was supposed to conduct two interim analyses of the trial data starting in December 2013. Yes, you read that right, December of 2013. By August 2014, however, the company had released a statement claiming that \"no interim analysis of efficacy in the Phase III trial [had] been done.\" What's more, the FDA halted the DCVax-L clinical trial in August 2015 before lifting it two years later. To this day, Northwest's management has never explained the reasons behind the trial halt.</p>\n<p>The company did eventually perform the interim analyses in 2017 and 2018, but released the results unblinded. When it comes to deadly diseases with significant unmet needs, clinical trials can be stopped early if the experimental drug meets the primary endpoint for ethical reasons. That did not happen with DCVax-L on both occasions.</p>\n<p>Last October, Northwest finally announced that the trial was coming to its end and that data was to be sent for statistical analysis. It's been more than nine months since the announcement, and no news. But, again, from an ethical endpoint, if DCVax-L was working, it doesn't make sense that Northwest wouldn't release top-line data and rush the drug to approval to save lives.</p>\n<p>Shareholders should be expecting a lot of pain ahead, as the company inexplicably has a market cap of $1.27 billion -- with an unpromising candidate and less than $35 million in total assets. All of this makes Northwest's fate look eerily similar to that of Cel-Sci -- and a stock to stay away from for good.&nbsp;</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 Biotechs to Avoid Like the Plague in July</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 Biotechs to Avoid Like the Plague in July\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-07 17:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/06/3-biotechs-to-avoid-like-the-plague-in-july/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Biotech is an industry that has deeply enriched investors' pockets and helped numerous patients alike -- most recently in the form of coronavirus vaccine companies working to contain the once-in-a-...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/06/3-biotechs-to-avoid-like-the-plague-in-july/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NWBO":"西北生物疗法","CVM":"CEL-SCI Corp","CYDY":"CytoDyn Inc."},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/06/3-biotechs-to-avoid-like-the-plague-in-july/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2149365051","content_text":"Biotech is an industry that has deeply enriched investors' pockets and helped numerous patients alike -- most recently in the form of coronavirus vaccine companies working to contain the once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.

Take note that CytoDyn has less than $150 million in total assets, leaving shareholders with little recourse in case of further blunders. \n3. Northwest Biotherapeutics \nNorthwest Biotherapeutics (OTC:NWBO) is a company that closely mirrors Cel-Sci in terms of both its science and stock price. Its management is also even more \"audacious\" than that of the previous companies. \nThe company's flagship candidate is an immunotherapy known as DCVax-L, which is under investigation for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, the most deadly form of brain cancer. The phase 3 study has been going on since December 2006 (almost 15 years now). It was originally a phase 2 study, but the company \"phase-shifted\" it to 3, citing difficulty in finding patients who are comfortable taking a placebo for the deadly illness.\nThe study had numerous red flags from the start. Northwest was supposed to conduct two interim analyses of the trial data starting in December 2013. Yes, you read that right, December of 2013. By August 2014, however, the company had released a statement claiming that \"no interim analysis of efficacy in the Phase III trial [had] been done.\" What's more, the FDA halted the DCVax-L clinical trial in August 2015 before lifting it two years later. To this day, Northwest's management has never explained the reasons behind the trial halt.\nThe company did eventually perform the interim analyses in 2017 and 2018, but released the results unblinded. When it comes to deadly diseases with significant unmet needs, clinical trials can be stopped early if the experimental drug meets the primary endpoint for ethical reasons. That did not happen with DCVax-L on both occasions.\nLast October, Northwest finally announced that the trial was coming to its end and that data was to be sent for statistical analysis. It's been more than nine months since the announcement, and no news. But, again, from an ethical endpoint, if DCVax-L was working, it doesn't make sense that Northwest wouldn't release top-line data and rush the drug to approval to save lives.\nShareholders should be expecting a lot of pain ahead, as the company inexplicably has a market cap of $1.27 billion -- with an unpromising candidate and less than $35 million in total assets. All of this makes Northwest's fate look eerily similar to that of Cel-Sci -- and a stock to stay away from for good.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":492,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9907599640,"gmtCreate":1660210881482,"gmtModify":1703479127014,"author":{"id":"4087711343938000","authorId":"4087711343938000","name":"ZeeJay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36dbec811e59c06f4aea5df6c06ea26f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087711343938000","authorIdStr":"4087711343938000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤗","listText":"🤗","text":"🤗","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9907599640","repostId":"9907267967","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9907267967,"gmtCreate":1660200224763,"gmtModify":1703479039571,"author":{"id":"4103332230805300","authorId":"4103332230805300","name":"Smartkarma","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/39fffba2ff205c2730b5bf07e3de6647","crmLevel":0,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4103332230805300","authorIdStr":"4103332230805300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"⬆ <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/00019\">$Swire Pacific (A)(00019)$</a> - Swire Pacific (19 HK/87 HK) Buyback: Bigger Than It Appears.

Instead, it will offer 3 months.\nAlso in July, the first subscribers to activate Apple's promotional offer will start to be automatically billed for the service after watching its shows for nearly 21 months for free.\nApple still has a much smaller content library than rivals such as Netflix and Disney.\n\nThe training wheels are about to come off for Apple TV+, the company's streaming video service.\nApple TV+ costs $4.99 per month. It's also bundled with other Apple services like Music and iCloud in packages called Apple One starting at $14.95 per month. But a lot of subscribers aren't paying.\nApple gave away a huge number of Apple TV+ of subscriptions to get the service off the ground. Starting in September 2019, anyone who bought an Apple product — an iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, or Apple Watch — got one year of Apple TV+ for free. During the pandemic, Apple extended the offer twice for people whose trial periods were about to expire.\nThe majority of Apple TV+ subscribers are still on the promotional offer, with 62% of current subscribers accessing Apple TV+ through a promotional package, according to survey data by Moffatt Nathanson published in January. Apple hasn't said how many subscribers the service has, but it has sold hundreds of millions of iPhones and other gadgets since late 2019.\nNow Apple is starting to wean Apple TV+ subscribers off the free plan.\nOn July 1, people who buy Apple products will be eligible for only 3 months of free Apple TV+, instead of a year, and people who already cashed on the trial can't get it again. Also during July, the first subscribers to activate the promotional offer will start to be automatically billed for the service after having access to its shows for nearly 21 months for free.\nThis creates a huge test for Apple.\nWill the millions of users currently on a free trial end up signing up for the $5 per month service or an Apple bundle because they can't go without Apple's shows? Or will they cancel?\nOthers may simply forget that they were on the trial and not immediately notice the new charges.\nApple reducing its reliance on free trials for Apple TV+ is a \"critical point\" for the service, said Parks Associates analyst Steve Cason, who follows the streaming industry.\n\"For newer or smaller services, partnerships and promotions are an invaluable customer acquisition tool,\" Cason said. \"A large percentage of folks follow through, they truly love the service and continue it. Or they forget they gave the service their credit card.\"\nFewer TV shows and movies than rivals\nApple TV+ has always had fewer hours of movies and TV compared to other streaming services, which may be a reason why it debuted with a lower price, versus to $8 per month for Disney+ or $8.99 for a standard Netflix plan.\nWhen Apple TV+ was launched in November 2019, it had nine original, Apple-backed shows and movies. Now it has around 87 original TV shows, movies and documentaries. That’s nowhere near what other services offer.\nHulu, for example, has thousands of shows, according to Reelgood data, many of which already have large fanbases because they were broadcast on TV.Netflix and Amazon Prime Video both have more than 1,000 licensed and original shows for customers to watch.\nApple has not licensed any non-exclusive shows for its service, and instead is only offering shows it financially backed. It hasn’t spent to buy media companies to fill out its back catalog, unlike Amazon, which recently agreed to acquire MGM Studios.\nMost of Apple’s shows star big-named producers and actors, such as Oprah and Steven Spielberg. However, talent is not exclusively tied to the company. Oprah’s biggest interview in recent memory, with Prince Harry, was broadcast on CBS. Steven Spielberg recently signed a deal with Netflix, too.\nStreaming ratings are notoriously secretive, and Apple’s never revealed how many viewers any of its shows have.\nWhen Apple executives are asked about the success of its content, they point to award nominations. In a press release last week,Apple said that its original shows have received 112 awards and 389 nominations, including Critics Choice awards, Golden Globes, and Oscars.\n“No matter what device you enjoy it from, it is a milestone period for Apple TV+, racking up many new award nominations and wins, including its first Oscar nominations,” Apple CEO Tim Cook said on a call with analysts in April.\nCook went on to praise one show in particular, “Ted Lasso,” which looks like Apple TV+‘s first big hit. The breezy comedy about an American soccer coach, which was based on an NBC advertisement poking fun at Americans’ ignorance about soccer, found a fanbase with its low-stakes banter.\n“Ted Lasso” season 2 will premier on July 23 and Apple will release new episodes weekly with an aim to get current subscribers on the trial hooked and potentially find new subscribers.\nA promotional email sent to subscribers this week highlights “Ted Lasso” in addition to a second season of “The Morning Show” starring Jennifer Aniston premiering in September. The email also promoted shows that have yet to premier, such as a comedy starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd called “The Shrink Next Door” and the sci-fi series “Foundation” based on Issac Asimov’s books.\nStill, “Ted Lasso” is a 30-minute comedy with only 10 episodes currently available, and overall, Apple’s library of content still trails far behind rivals.\n“Apple’s not in a position of strength here,” Moffett Nathanson’s Michael Nathanson said. “Although they have some excellent shows, they lack the scale of new releases, tentpole titles and a deep library to really create a large profitable business at this point.”\nPart of a whole\nIt’s hard to figure out how Apple TV+ stacks up to Disney or Netflix in terms of subscribers because Apple doesn’t release stats.\nNetflix has 208 million subscribers around the world. It would also be surprising if Apple can match Disney+’s 100 million subscribers, which it has built since Apple TV+ debuted.\nAnalysts are reluctant to offer estimates, but based on the number of smartphones Apple sells per year, tens of millions of people could have taken the promotional offer for Apple TV. Apple sold 206 million iPhones globally in 2020,according to an IDC estimate, and that doesn’t include the other Apple products that come with a free trial.\nEleven percent of U.S. households with a high-speed internet connection subscribe to Apple TV+, according to Parks Associates survey data. There are about 103 million households with broadband,according to Census data.\nThe percent of subscribers who could end up churning is also foggy. A Moffett Nathanson analysis of survey data suggests 29% percent of Apple TV+ subscribers don’t plan to renew and 41% aren’t sure yet. Only 30% said they planned to continue subscribing to Apple TV+.\nBut Apple never said it planned to take on Netflix, Cason said, so the total number of subscribers may not be that important to the company. He thinks that Apple TV+ is another one of several services designed to get users hooked on iPhones and Apple services, in line with Apple’s overall corporate strategy.\n“Apple wants to get you into their ecosystem through a device purchase, and once you get in there, they go, ‘We’ll give you Apple TV+. We also have Apple Music, podcasts, news, fitness, you can bundle them or you buy them separate,’” Cason said.\nIn fact, that’s how Apple thinks about its subscriber numbers. It said in April that it has 660 million paid subscribers across its services — but that also includes anyone who’s subscribed to an app through App Store billing.\nApple TV+ gives the company commercial-free content it can use to promote new audio and visual standards it builds into its products. For example, when Apple TV+ shows first debuted, they supported a Dolby HDR standard that produced better image quality when viewed through a supported Apple player. The next year, Apple announced that iPhones can film video using Dolby Vision HDR.\nMore recently, Apple launched a feature called spatial audio that works like advanced surround sound when listening on certain Apple headphones. Apple TV+ shows and movies support spatial audio, giving Apple customers the ability to watch a show in it without the company making sure that supported content is available from rivals.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
