It was the first record high since June 30.</p><p>In a Sunday note, Morgan Stanley analyst Erik Woodring and his group, including Saurabh Mehta from the firm’s India team, reiterated an Overweight call, the equivalent of Buy, on Apple. The firm raised its price target to $220 from $190 earlier, implying that the stock could rise more than 15.5% from Friday’s close by July 2024.</p><p>Morgan Stanley’s bullish take stems from the firm’s estimate that India can add over 170 million new Apple users. The analysts say revenue from India can grow at a compounded annual rate of more than 20% to reach nearly $40 billion over the next 10 years. In 2022, revenue from India was almost $6 billion, according to unidentified sources cited by Reuters and Bloomberg in April, while Apple reported an overall total of $394 billion.</p><p>The forecast is based on data from Morgan Stanley’s new AlphaWise India Smartphone Survey, which polled more than 3,000 urban smartphone owners.</p><p>“The survey results positively surprised us,” the team wrote, saying more people intend to buy Apple phones as perceptions about the brand improve.

With the rejoined CEO, the company’s streaming business is expected to quickly approach the profitability lane.A lot has happened at the Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) that has caught investors’ attention. On November 8, the entertainment behemoth reported dismal Q4 results where EPS of $0.30 fell below the street’s expectations of $0.56 per share. To bring a turnaround, its former CEO, Robert Iger, is back at the helm, succeeding CEO Bob Chapek. The street is bullish on the move, and so am I, given the strong business fundamentals and long-term growth drivers attached to the Disney brand.Business Initiatives Under CEO Robert IgerRobert Iger served as Disney’s CEO for 15 years and has agreed to lead the company once again for a two-year stint. Since Iger will not reign as the CEO for too long, another transition will soon be in the cards. Until then, let’s take a peek at the plans set forth by the leadership change. On November 29, Disney filed its annual report. It provided further details on the future course of action under the leadership of returning CEO Bob Iger, who intends to make a number of strategic moves, including organizational and operating changes.According to the SEC filing, “While the plans are in early stages, changes in our structure and operations, including within DMED (and including possibly our distribution approach and the businesses/distribution platforms selected for the initial distribution of content), can be expected.”The company will now emphasize the distribution of content through direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming services instead of traditional distribution methods. During Fiscal Year 2023, Disney expects to release 20 films. Out of that, certain films will be distributed exclusively on DTC streaming services in certain regions.As a result, the Direct-to-Consumer segment will report higher revenues and costs. Likewise, lower revenues and costs will be associated with the Content Sales/Licensing and Linear Networks segment.In addition, under the erstwhile CEO Bob Chapek, numerous films were moved directly to Disney+, much to the dislike of producers. However, things may change for the better, as the trend of the pre-pandemic era is expected to return with more theater releases under CEO Bob Iger’s tenure.Streaming Will be the Long-Term Growth DriverBob Iger’s topmost priority is to ensure that the company’s streaming business turns profitable. Disney’s streaming services are expected to be a significant growth driver for the company in the coming years. It includes Disney+, ESPN+, Hulu, Disney+ Hotstar, and Star+.Disney+ has done well in a short span of three years. Currently, the Disney+ streaming platform ranks as the third largest streaming platform, with 164 million subscriptions. Netflix is the leader with 223 million subscribers, followed by Amazon with 200 million subscriptions. However, Disney+ is still losing money and is expected to turn a profit in Fiscal Year 2024.Nonetheless, in the long run, Disney should be able to have an edge in the streaming industry versus peers based on its strong business franchise, world-class titles, and industry-leading skill sets. On top of that, Disney has a competitive advantage as it owns the content studios that make original films and TV series. On the other hand, its peers, like Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX), pay a fortune to rent the content for a few years.Separately, the company continues to make amusement park upgrades with introductions of new attractions and growth initiatives. Its investments and upgrades are backed by a strong balance sheet and healthy cash flows.Is Disney a Buy or Sell?The Wall Street community is optimistic about Disney stock. Overall, the stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 17 Buys and four Holds assigned in the past three months. Disney’s average price target of $121.35 implies a 22.23% upside potential from current levels.Concluding Thoughts: Wall Street is Optimistic About Iger’s ReturnDisney stock has lost more than 37% of its market capitalization on a year-to-date basis. It was only a year ago that the company touched its all-time high of $197. Currently, the stock is trading approximately $100 lower than those highs. CEO Bob Iger’s return may mean a lot of things. To some, it may mean an indication of troubled waters ahead. To others, it may give a ray of hope toward a quick path to profitability. While only time will tell if the transition will turn out successful, the street considers it to be a positive move and is bullish on Disney stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":431,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9966648251,"gmtCreate":1669526653173,"gmtModify":1676538205084,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I am laughing at those dumbos who bought NFT and metaverse land plots fir millions","listText":"I am laughing at those dumbos who bought NFT and metaverse land plots fir millions","text":"I am laughing at those dumbos who bought NFT and metaverse land plots fir millions","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9966648251","repostId":"2286343743","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2286343743","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1669359955,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2286343743?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-25 15:05","market":"other","language":"en","title":"3 Cryptos to Avoid No Matter What","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2286343743","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The future looks bleak for these cryptocurrencies.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The bankruptcy of FTX and rapid drop in the <b>FTX Token</b> has caused a lot of investors to rethink the value in these cryptocurrencies. In particular, project, exchange, and meme tokens should be questioned more than ever.</p><p>Three that I think should be avoided at all costs right now are <b>ApeCoin</b>, <b>BNB</b>, and <b>Dogecoin</b>.</p><h2>ApeCoin's questionable use cases</h2><p>The launch of ApeCoin was one of the strangest in 2022. Yuga Labs, which launched the Bored Ape Yacht Club and related non-fungible tokens (NFTs), was not technically involved in the token's launch, but it was given 16% of the tokens at launch and the four Yuga Labs founders were given 8% of the tokens. Launch contributors were given another 14%.</p><p>The remaining 62% of ApeCoin supply was, or will be, claimable by some NFT owners. These are the tokens being traded today. The intention long term is that the ApeCoin will be used in the Bored Ape Yacht Club's metaverse game, but there's currently no game and no launch date.</p><p>What we don't know is what value the token has or why it deserves to have a $3.1 billion fully diluted market capitalization. Proponents might claim value in a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) or staking, but these have never proven to deliver long-term value to investors.</p><p>Someday, Yuga Labs could provide a use case for the token that provides real value, but until it does, investors should be skeptical. The reality is that no one knows if Bored Apes or their game will have any value a year from now, and I think the token will be far less valuable than it is today.</p><h2>BNB is another exchange token</h2><p>The Binance Coin has a total value of $51.3 billion and has limited uses.

In particular, project, exchange, and meme tokens should be questioned more than ever.Three that I think should be avoided at all costs right now are ApeCoin, BNB, and Dogecoin.ApeCoin's questionable use casesThe launch of ApeCoin was one of the strangest in 2022. Yuga Labs, which launched the Bored Ape Yacht Club and related non-fungible tokens (NFTs), was not technically involved in the token's launch, but it was given 16% of the tokens at launch and the four Yuga Labs founders were given 8% of the tokens. Launch contributors were given another 14%.The remaining 62% of ApeCoin supply was, or will be, claimable by some NFT owners. These are the tokens being traded today. The intention long term is that the ApeCoin will be used in the Bored Ape Yacht Club's metaverse game, but there's currently no game and no launch date.What we don't know is what value the token has or why it deserves to have a $3.1 billion fully diluted market capitalization. Proponents might claim value in a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) or staking, but these have never proven to deliver long-term value to investors.Someday, Yuga Labs could provide a use case for the token that provides real value, but until it does, investors should be skeptical. The reality is that no one knows if Bored Apes or their game will have any value a year from now, and I think the token will be far less valuable than it is today.BNB is another exchange tokenThe Binance Coin has a total value of $51.3 billion and has limited uses. According to the token's site, you can \"use BNB to pay for goods and services, settle transaction fees on Binance Smart Chain, participate in exclusive token sales and more.\"There's also a BNB Chain ecosystem, which gives the token more utility. But this is ultimately a token tied to Binance's exchange business, and we saw how that ended with FTX. Binance doesn't have publicly available financials and operates outside of U.S. securities laws, so investors should be skeptical.The reality of the BNB token is that it's reliant on a single company -- Binance -- to generate value.

I'm not calling for Binance's bankruptcy, but taking a risk on a token tied to one company isn't wise after how we've seen similar tokens collapse in value.Dogecoin's meme status might endThe Dogecoin community leans into the fact that this was a joke token to begin with.

That bull market has come to a crashing end, and I think meme coins like Dogecoin will go with it.Stick to the best of the bestThe future of cryptocurrency is uncertain, but I think investors would be wise to stick with the highest quality and most widely used tokens available.

On Wednesday, Binance walked away from the deal citing problems with FTX’s finances as well as potential regulatory investigations. Its decision to walk away deepened the ongoing crypto rout, with Bitcoin tumbling to the lowest level in two years.</p><p>While crypto might seem like a niche corner of finance, the saga between two of its top players has upended the crypto ecosystem and is likely to have far-reaching repercussions.</p><p><b>What are Binance and FTX?</b></p><p>They’re two of the biggest crypto exchanges, which are marketplaces where investors buy, sell and store tokens. Binance is the biggest crypto exchange by volume by a long way — and FTX is in the top five, according to crypto data provider CoinMarketCap (which is owned by Binance).</p><p><b>Who runs them?</b></p><p>They’ve also been led by two of the most visible and charismatic people in the crypto world: Binance by Changpeng Zhao (or CZ, as he is known), and FTX by Sam Bankman-Fried (or SBF).</p><p>Formerly a trader at Jane Street, until just a few weeks ago the curly-haired 30-year-old was everywhere in the crypto industry — backing flailing projects including BlockFi, Voyager Digital and Celsius. He counted the likes of Softbank Vision Fund, Singapore wealth fund Temasek and Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan as investors.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/535bbd30b95ab09c2c91bada9c2bb89c\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"666\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Sam Bankman-FriedPhotographer: Jeenah Moon/Bloomberg</span></p><p>Zhao is a China-born Canadian citizen who emigrated to Vancouver aged 12 and graduated with a degree in computer science from McGill University in Montreal. He started Binance in 2017 in Shanghai — but the Chinese government banned crypto exchanges the same year. He’s now based in Dubai.</p><p><b>Why did they fall out?</b></p><p>Back in 2019, Binance invested in FTX, then a derivatives exchange. The next year, Binance launched its own crypto derivatives, quickly becoming the leader in the field.</p><p>Tensions rose as the two companies increasingly took divergent tacks with regulators. Bankman-Fried was testifying in the US Congress, while Binance was said to be facing regulatory probes around the world.</p><p>The two companies have also been competing for assets, with both bidding for assets of Voyager Digital. FTX.US, the American affiliate of FTX, won the auction.</p><p>Zhao and Bankman-Fried have been trading barbs on Twitter for months, feuding over issues ranging from lobbying US politicians to allegations of frontrunning trades.</p><p><b>So what just happened in the crypto world?</b></p><p>Over the weekend Zhao tweeted that Binance would be liquidating its holdings of a token known as FTT, which is issued by FTX.</p><p>The tweet followed a story from crypto news outlet CoinDesk saying that Alameda Research, a trading house owned by FTX’s founder Bankman-Fried, had a lot of its assets in FTT token.</p><p>That fueled broader concerns about FTX’s health and investors began to withdraw money. The FTT token plunged. A day before reaching a deal, Bankman-Fried said on Twitter that assets on FTX were “fine” and that “a competitor is trying to go after us with false rumors.”</p><p>On Tuesday, CZ announced a potential takeover of FTX, with due diligence to be conducted “in the coming days.”</p><p>Then late Wednesday afternoon New York time, Binance said it was pulling out of the deal saying its rival’s issues were “beyond our control or ability to help.” Binance executives had discovered a gap between FTX’s liabilities and assets that may amount to more than $6 billion, a person familiar with the matter told Bloomberg.</p><p>What’s more, US regulators are investigating whether FTX properly handled customer funds, as well as its relationship with other parts of Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire, including his trading house Alameda Research, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday.</p><p><b>What does this mean for the markets?</b></p><p>It’s injected a lot of uncertainty for investors who are worried about the potential for spreading contagion given the pivotal role FTX and its co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried played in the industry.</p><p>FTT, the utility token of the FTX exchange, collapsed by more than 40% Wednesday following a tumble of more than 70% Tuesday. But just about every digital coin is struggling.</p><p>Bitcoin fell as much as 15% to $15,987 on Wednesday, the least since November 2020, which leaves a lot of holders under water.</p><p><b>What does this mean for FTX users?</b></p><p>That’s unclear. Clients worried about the future of the exchange have already pulled out $430 million worth of Bitcoin in the space of just four days.</p><p><b>How does this affect CZ and SBF?</b></p><p>It’s a huge comedown for SBF, who had previously been seen as one of the most accomplished people in the industry.</p><p>That’s playing out in fortunes, as well. Bankman-Fried’s 53% stake in FTX was worth about $6.2 billion before Tuesday’s takeover, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, based on that fundraising round and the subsequent performance of publicly traded crypto companies. His crypto trading house, Alameda Research, contributed $7.4 billion to his personal fortune.</p><p>The Bloomberg wealth index assumes existing FTX investors, including Bankman-Fried, will be completely wiped out by Binance’s bailout, and that the root of the exchange’s problems stemmed from Alameda. As a result, both FTX and Alameda are given a $1 value. That leaves SBF’s net worth at about $1 billion, down from $15.6 billion heading into Tuesday.

On Wednesday, Binance walked away from the deal citing problems with FTX’s finances as well as potential regulatory investigations. Its decision to walk away deepened the ongoing crypto rout, with Bitcoin tumbling to the lowest level in two years.While crypto might seem like a niche corner of finance, the saga between two of its top players has upended the crypto ecosystem and is likely to have far-reaching repercussions.What are Binance and FTX?They’re two of the biggest crypto exchanges, which are marketplaces where investors buy, sell and store tokens. Binance is the biggest crypto exchange by volume by a long way — and FTX is in the top five, according to crypto data provider CoinMarketCap (which is owned by Binance).Who runs them?They’ve also been led by two of the most visible and charismatic people in the crypto world: Binance by Changpeng Zhao (or CZ, as he is known), and FTX by Sam Bankman-Fried (or SBF).Formerly a trader at Jane Street, until just a few weeks ago the curly-haired 30-year-old was everywhere in the crypto industry — backing flailing projects including BlockFi, Voyager Digital and Celsius. He counted the likes of Softbank Vision Fund, Singapore wealth fund Temasek and Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan as investors.Sam Bankman-FriedPhotographer: Jeenah Moon/BloombergZhao is a China-born Canadian citizen who emigrated to Vancouver aged 12 and graduated with a degree in computer science from McGill University in Montreal. He started Binance in 2017 in Shanghai — but the Chinese government banned crypto exchanges the same year. He’s now based in Dubai.Why did they fall out?Back in 2019, Binance invested in FTX, then a derivatives exchange. The next year, Binance launched its own crypto derivatives, quickly becoming the leader in the field.Tensions rose as the two companies increasingly took divergent tacks with regulators. Bankman-Fried was testifying in the US Congress, while Binance was said to be facing regulatory probes around the world.The two companies have also been competing for assets, with both bidding for assets of Voyager Digital. FTX.US, the American affiliate of FTX, won the auction.Zhao and Bankman-Fried have been trading barbs on Twitter for months, feuding over issues ranging from lobbying US politicians to allegations of frontrunning trades.So what just happened in the crypto world?Over the weekend Zhao tweeted that Binance would be liquidating its holdings of a token known as FTT, which is issued by FTX.The tweet followed a story from crypto news outlet CoinDesk saying that Alameda Research, a trading house owned by FTX’s founder Bankman-Fried, had a lot of its assets in FTT token.That fueled broader concerns about FTX’s health and investors began to withdraw money. The FTT token plunged. A day before reaching a deal, Bankman-Fried said on Twitter that assets on FTX were “fine” and that “a competitor is trying to go after us with false rumors.”On Tuesday, CZ announced a potential takeover of FTX, with due diligence to be conducted “in the coming days.”Then late Wednesday afternoon New York time, Binance said it was pulling out of the deal saying its rival’s issues were “beyond our control or ability to help.” Binance executives had discovered a gap between FTX’s liabilities and assets that may amount to more than $6 billion, a person familiar with the matter told Bloomberg.What’s more, US regulators are investigating whether FTX properly handled customer funds, as well as its relationship with other parts of Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire, including his trading house Alameda Research, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday.What does this mean for the markets?It’s injected a lot of uncertainty for investors who are worried about the potential for spreading contagion given the pivotal role FTX and its co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried played in the industry.FTT, the utility token of the FTX exchange, collapsed by more than 40% Wednesday following a tumble of more than 70% Tuesday. But just about every digital coin is struggling.Bitcoin fell as much as 15% to $15,987 on Wednesday, the least since November 2020, which leaves a lot of holders under water.What does this mean for FTX users?That’s unclear. Clients worried about the future of the exchange have already pulled out $430 million worth of Bitcoin in the space of just four days.How does this affect CZ and SBF?It’s a huge comedown for SBF, who had previously been seen as one of the most accomplished people in the industry.That’s playing out in fortunes, as well. Bankman-Fried’s 53% stake in FTX was worth about $6.2 billion before Tuesday’s takeover, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, based on that fundraising round and the subsequent performance of publicly traded crypto companies. His crypto trading house, Alameda Research, contributed $7.4 billion to his personal fortune.The Bloomberg wealth index assumes existing FTX investors, including Bankman-Fried, will be completely wiped out by Binance’s bailout, and that the root of the exchange’s problems stemmed from Alameda. As a result, both FTX and Alameda are given a $1 value. That leaves SBF’s net worth at about $1 billion, down from $15.6 billion heading into Tuesday. The 94% loss is the biggest one-day collapse ever among billionaires tracked by Bloomberg.Changpeng ZhaoPhotographer: Zed Jameson/BloombergEven after pulling out of the deal, Bankman-Fried’s fall from grace leaves CZ as the top person in the crypto world. He’s had a rough period too, with his fortune down 84% year-to-date, according to the Billionaires Index — but he’s still estimated to be worth $14.9 billion.What does this mean in terms of regulation?This episode and how quickly it unfolded provide a stark example for regulators who have been concerned about the lack of guardrails in the freewheeling crypto space. Jurisdictions that have been considering looser rules may be less likely to do so — especially on the back a few months ago of implosions in the Terra/Luna ecosystem and hedge fund Three Arrows Capital.What’s Next?Bankman-Fried told FTX.com investors on Wednesday that the company needs a cash injection, or else it would need to file for bankruptcy, Bloomberg News reported.Whether FTX survives this crisis or not, the entire industry is on edge about the risks of contagion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":581,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9960454350,"gmtCreate":1668232682870,"gmtModify":1676538032523,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Which idiots speculating shit and cause panic selling","listText":"Which idiots speculating shit and cause panic selling","text":"Which idiots speculating shit and cause panic selling","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9960454350","repostId":"2282555601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2282555601","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1668095223,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2282555601?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-10 23:47","market":"other","language":"en","title":"Panic Among Bitcoin Investors Intensifies: When Will It End?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2282555601","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"After a period of low cryptocurrency volatility, the price of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) fell sharply from $2","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>After a period of low cryptocurrency volatility, the price of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) fell sharply from $21,400 to $17,150 and is currently trading in a narrow price range of $18,100-$18,500 after a slight recovery. As described in my previous Bitcoin article, the key reason for the fall below the psychological threshold of $20,000 per Bitcoin is the Fed's fourth consecutive increase in the Fed's interest rate to a record high in the past sixteen years.

The dynamics of new on-chain addresses continue to decline from multi-year highs reached in May 2021, when mass euphoria swept almost all markets and new participants opened wallets and invested in “digital gold”. However, even then, the first signals of a decrease in interest in Bitcoin appeared, as the average monthly rate of new addresses fell below the 365-day simple moving average marked in pink in the chart below. Moreover, a similar situation was observed in February 2018, after which the price of Bitcoin collapsed by 73% in less than a year. At the moment, the momentum of New Addresses is close to another upward spurt, as it happened in November 2018 after a multi-month period of low volatility and marked by a revival of hopes for the start of a new cycle of growth in demand for Bitcoin. However, this was a vain hope, as the price of Bitcoin collapsed from $6,600 to $3,300, and thus finally discouraged the majority of potential investors from buying “digital gold”. Moreover, at times of maximum stress among market participants and the subsequent formation of a bottom, the number of new addresses always reached a value of 240 thousand, which we still have not seen. As a consequence, this once again indicates that the current price range is not a bottom before a new up cycle begins.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa7c9a2f19881374904ec93d1270397a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"353\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Author's elaboration, based on Glassnode</p><p>The logical consequence of the slowdown in the opening of new crypto wallets is a slowdown in the growth of the number of addresses with a non-zero balance, as most investors continue to exchange Bitcoin for fiat money and reinvest it in financial assets with less risk. A similar situation could be observed in the first three quarters of 2018, when the price of Bitcoin, after a sharp fall, remained in a narrow price range of $3,200-$4,000 for several months, while the S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) continued their upward movement.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c846e3e72677d2a93a6818fffae6ba32\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"362\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Author's elaboration, based on Glassnode</p><h2>Miners continue to experience the hardest times</h2><p>In my previous article, “Anticipating Crypto Crisis: Bitcoin Price Might Drop 35%”, I pointed out the continued dire situation in the mining industry, with hashrate and network difficulty setting new records and thereby provoking companies to sell off more coins to continue their activities. As of November 9, 2022, Bitcoin's average production cost is $19,600 while the spot price has fallen below $18,000. The last time a similar situation happened was four years ago and eventually led to a mass capitulation of miners. At the moment, miners earn only 3.47 BTC per day for every Exahash, or 62.5 thousand in dollar terms, which is 25.2% less than last quarter. Increased competition among such mastodons of the industry as Riot Blockchain (RIOT) and HIVE Blockchain Technologies (HIVE) does not lead to the recovery of the cryptocurrency market, but only aggravates the situation and the longer this happens, the longer the period of its recovery will continue. I expect the sideways trend in the $12,700-$13,600 price range, in which more patient investors will accumulate coins in their wallets, to last a little longer than before. As a consequence, this will lead to a significant decrease in the investment interest of those who try to make a quick profit in this market and will also maintain downward pressure on the share prices of crypto miners.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b995c945a1f7a44d756b0aadbd8f437d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Author's elaboration, based on Glassnode</p><p>A period of apathy among crypto market participants due to a sharp drop in the profitability of their investments leads to the transition of Bitcoin from more impulsive investors to those who understand the value of cryptocurrencies. These trends can be analyzed using the percent of supply in profit, which provides information about the state of the market cycle. At the moment, this indicator continues to be in a downward trend and thus demonstrates the dominance of the share of supply in losses and, as a result, the preservation of bearish sentiment in the cryptocurrency market.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02be3db613dc233a31c251c55f282798\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Author's elaboration, based on Glassnode</p><h2>Holders continue to accumulate Bitcoin</h2><p>Despite the decline in interest and confidence in cryptocurrencies, long-term investors do not lose optimism about the future of Bitcoin and continue to accumulate it. The share of U.S. dollar wealth held in BTC that hasn't moved in the last six months has hit a multi-year low. In previous Bitcoin cycles, such extremely low values were marked by the formation of the bottom of the main cryptocurrency and, in my opinion, a similar situation will repeat in 2022-2023.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/251ce31d56d46d078173334b5014eb75\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Author's elaboration, based on Glassnode</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Since writing my last bearish article in October 2022, the price of Bitcoin has fallen by more than 10%, which is consistent with my expectations for the behavior of the cryptocurrency market, which is experiencing capital outflows to less risky assets.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea9d70bfb9b3aea5f3934bf7bb637f08\" tg-width=\"290\" tg-height=\"413\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Source: Nathan Aisenstadt — Seeking Alpha</p><p>The panic among high-risk assets, including those traded on the stock market, does not contribute to the transition of Bitcoin from a bearish trend to a bullish one. The network difficulty sets new multi-year records and thus reduces investment in the mining industry, which is in dire need of additional funding to buy more efficient equipment. Moreover, the increase in downward pressure on the price of Bitcoin comes at a time when one of the global crypto-currency exchanges, namely FTX (FTT-USD), is facing a liquidity crisis and thus only increasing the likelihood of a domino effect on other market participants.</p><p>On the other hand, prerequisites for the end of the bearish trend are beginning to appear due to an increase in the number of long-term holders who are confident in the bright future of cryptocurrencies. In addition, I expect a slowdown in the Fed rate hike in 2023 due to the slowdown in U.S. inflation and the victory of the Republicans in the elections to the House of Representatives. As a result, the Democrats will not be able to promote all their ideas, which required multibillion-dollar investments with the subsequent rise in inflation, and as a result, this will lead to an easing of the Fed's monetary policy. As a result, investors will begin to consider investing in high-risk assets such as Bitcoin, Dogecoin (DOGE-USD), Ethereum (ETH-USD), and Cardano (ADA-USD). From the point of view of technical analysis, as in the previous article, I expect the price of Bitcoin to decline to the range of $12,700-$13,600, after which there will be a multi-month period of accumulation and the cycle will start again.</p></body></html>","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>Panic Among Bitcoin Investors Intensifies: When Will It End?</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\">\nPanic Among Bitcoin Investors Intensifies: When Will It End?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-10 23:47 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4555528-panic-among-bitcoin-investors-intensifies-when-will-it-end><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>After a period of low cryptocurrency volatility, the price of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) fell sharply from $21,400 to $17,150 and is currently trading in a narrow price range of $18,100-$18,500 after a slight ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4555528-panic-among-bitcoin-investors-intensifies-when-will-it-end\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4555528-panic-among-bitcoin-investors-intensifies-when-will-it-end","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2282555601","content_text":"After a period of low cryptocurrency volatility, the price of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) fell sharply from $21,400 to $17,150 and is currently trading in a narrow price range of $18,100-$18,500 after a slight recovery.

The dynamics of new on-chain addresses continue to decline from multi-year highs reached in May 2021, when mass euphoria swept almost all markets and new participants opened wallets and invested in “digital gold”. However, even then, the first signals of a decrease in interest in Bitcoin appeared, as the average monthly rate of new addresses fell below the 365-day simple moving average marked in pink in the chart below. Moreover, a similar situation was observed in February 2018, after which the price of Bitcoin collapsed by 73% in less than a year. At the moment, the momentum of New Addresses is close to another upward spurt, as it happened in November 2018 after a multi-month period of low volatility and marked by a revival of hopes for the start of a new cycle of growth in demand for Bitcoin. However, this was a vain hope, as the price of Bitcoin collapsed from $6,600 to $3,300, and thus finally discouraged the majority of potential investors from buying “digital gold”. Moreover, at times of maximum stress among market participants and the subsequent formation of a bottom, the number of new addresses always reached a value of 240 thousand, which we still have not seen. As a consequence, this once again indicates that the current price range is not a bottom before a new up cycle begins.Source: Author's elaboration, based on GlassnodeThe logical consequence of the slowdown in the opening of new crypto wallets is a slowdown in the growth of the number of addresses with a non-zero balance, as most investors continue to exchange Bitcoin for fiat money and reinvest it in financial assets with less risk. A similar situation could be observed in the first three quarters of 2018, when the price of Bitcoin, after a sharp fall, remained in a narrow price range of $3,200-$4,000 for several months, while the S&P 500 (SPY) and Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) continued their upward movement.Source: Author's elaboration, based on GlassnodeMiners continue to experience the hardest timesIn my previous article, “Anticipating Crypto Crisis: Bitcoin Price Might Drop 35%”, I pointed out the continued dire situation in the mining industry, with hashrate and network difficulty setting new records and thereby provoking companies to sell off more coins to continue their activities. As of November 9, 2022, Bitcoin's average production cost is $19,600 while the spot price has fallen below $18,000. The last time a similar situation happened was four years ago and eventually led to a mass capitulation of miners. At the moment, miners earn only 3.47 BTC per day for every Exahash, or 62.5 thousand in dollar terms, which is 25.2% less than last quarter. Increased competition among such mastodons of the industry as Riot Blockchain (RIOT) and HIVE Blockchain Technologies (HIVE) does not lead to the recovery of the cryptocurrency market, but only aggravates the situation and the longer this happens, the longer the period of its recovery will continue. I expect the sideways trend in the $12,700-$13,600 price range, in which more patient investors will accumulate coins in their wallets, to last a little longer than before. As a consequence, this will lead to a significant decrease in the investment interest of those who try to make a quick profit in this market and will also maintain downward pressure on the share prices of crypto miners.Source: Author's elaboration, based on GlassnodeA period of apathy among crypto market participants due to a sharp drop in the profitability of their investments leads to the transition of Bitcoin from more impulsive investors to those who understand the value of cryptocurrencies. These trends can be analyzed using the percent of supply in profit, which provides information about the state of the market cycle. At the moment, this indicator continues to be in a downward trend and thus demonstrates the dominance of the share of supply in losses and, as a result, the preservation of bearish sentiment in the cryptocurrency market.Source: Author's elaboration, based on GlassnodeHolders continue to accumulate BitcoinDespite the decline in interest and confidence in cryptocurrencies, long-term investors do not lose optimism about the future of Bitcoin and continue to accumulate it. The share of U.S. dollar wealth held in BTC that hasn't moved in the last six months has hit a multi-year low. In previous Bitcoin cycles, such extremely low values were marked by the formation of the bottom of the main cryptocurrency and, in my opinion, a similar situation will repeat in 2022-2023.Source: Author's elaboration, based on GlassnodeConclusionSince writing my last bearish article in October 2022, the price of Bitcoin has fallen by more than 10%, which is consistent with my expectations for the behavior of the cryptocurrency market, which is experiencing capital outflows to less risky assets.Source: Nathan Aisenstadt — Seeking AlphaThe panic among high-risk assets, including those traded on the stock market, does not contribute to the transition of Bitcoin from a bearish trend to a bullish one. The network difficulty sets new multi-year records and thus reduces investment in the mining industry, which is in dire need of additional funding to buy more efficient equipment. Moreover, the increase in downward pressure on the price of Bitcoin comes at a time when one of the global crypto-currency exchanges, namely FTX (FTT-USD), is facing a liquidity crisis and thus only increasing the likelihood of a domino effect on other market participants.On the other hand, prerequisites for the end of the bearish trend are beginning to appear due to an increase in the number of long-term holders who are confident in the bright future of cryptocurrencies. In addition, I expect a slowdown in the Fed rate hike in 2023 due to the slowdown in U.S. inflation and the victory of the Republicans in the elections to the House of Representatives. As a result, the Democrats will not be able to promote all their ideas, which required multibillion-dollar investments with the subsequent rise in inflation, and as a result, this will lead to an easing of the Fed's monetary policy. As a result, investors will begin to consider investing in high-risk assets such as Bitcoin, Dogecoin (DOGE-USD), Ethereum (ETH-USD), and Cardano (ADA-USD). From the point of view of technical analysis, as in the previous article, I expect the price of Bitcoin to decline to the range of $12,700-$13,600, after which there will be a multi-month period of accumulation and the cycle will start again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":143,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9987731890,"gmtCreate":1667988140610,"gmtModify":1676537995089,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hope it will soar","listText":"Hope it will soar","text":"Hope it will soar","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9987731890","repostId":"2281074736","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2281074736","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1667829646,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2281074736?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-07 22:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street Thinks Sea Limited's Stock Will Double Over the Next Year.

You’ll be amazed, and even shocked, to find out just how many billions of dollars these industry giants have lost in a matter of weeks, days, or even hours.For years, the stories of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), social media and metaverse business Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META), and e-commerce giant Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) were tales of unencumbered growth. Yet, as they say on Wall Street, trees don’t just grow straight to the heavens. Sooner or later, even the biggest companies must encounter setbacks – and when they’re gigantic corporations, the losses can be absolutely staggering.In other words: The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Granted, we might not feel too sorry for multi-billionaires like Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Amazon Executive Chairman Jeff Bezos when they sustain financial losses. After all, they still have massive hoards of money and property; they’ll be just fine, no doubt, even after losing billions of dollars.Meta Platforms Gets Kicked Out of the Trillion-Dollar ClubA while back, you might have read news reports about the “trillion-dollar club,” which companies could join if their market caps reached a trillion dollars. It’s mind-blowing to think that this club even exists, but high dollar inflation and corporate growth mean that a trillion-dollar valuation is within reach in the 2020s.However, getting into the trillion-dollar club is one thing; staying in the club is another matter entirely. Reportedly, the tech-stock rout was so bad that Meta Platforms (a.k.a. Facebook) – which was among the five most valuable businesses in the U.S. and had a trillion-dollar market cap last year – is now worth around $270 billion.That’s a stunning $730 billion loss in just a year’s time, and META stock is currently trading at its lowest price since early 2016. Is it possible that Zuckerberg’s big bet on the metaverse isn’t working out as planned?Zuckerberg isn’t the only tech mogul to see billions wiped out. Bezos’ net worth plunged from its $214 billion peak in July 2021 to around $111 billion. This represents a mind-numbing $103 billion capital loss.Meanwhile, Musk lost over $100 billion during the past 12 months – but again, no one’s throwing any pity parties as Musk is still the world’s richest person. Thus, between Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Musk, we can account for a net-worth loss totaling $941 billion.These losses have also been reflected in the share prices of TSLA, AMZN, and META stock. So, before you send flowers and a get-well card to these billionaire owners, be sure to check your investment portfolio, as you might be in dire financial straits yourself.What Do Analysts Think about META, AMZN, and TSLA Stocks?Turning to Wall Street, analysts still have positive views on META, AMZN, and TSLA stocks. As per the picture below, you can see that Amazon has a Strong Buy consensus rating, whereas the other two have a Moderate Buy rating. Their price targets are as follows:META – $146.48 (45.84% upside)AMZN – $165.45 (67.12% upside)TSLA – $292.89 (33.3% upside)","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":324,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982051356,"gmtCreate":1667054667476,"gmtModify":1676537854746,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sea is drowning ","listText":"Sea is drowning ","text":"Sea is drowning","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9982051356","repostId":"1104333657","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104333657","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1666948108,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104333657?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-28 17:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Another Cathie Wood Fund Exits Sea After $175 Billion Selloff","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104333657","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Ark’s Internet ETF sold its last few shares on ThursdayWood’s ETFs have been selling shares in Sea s","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Ark’s Internet ETF sold its last few shares on Thursday</li><li>Wood’s ETFs have been selling shares in Sea since mid-May</li></ul><p>Funds managed by Cathie Wood are exiting the beleaguered Southeast Asian e-commerce giant Sea Ltd. one by one.</p><p>Ark Next Generation Internet ETF on Thursday sold its last few shares in Sea, almost a quarter after flagship Ark Innovation ETF exited from the company in June, according to Ark trading data compiled by Bloomberg.</p><p>Exchange traded funds backed by Wood’s firm Ark Investment Management LLC’s have been selling shares in Sea since mid-May.

While not providing specific numbers, Apple said revenue growth would fall below 8% in the December quarter but did not go as far as Amazon.com.</p><p>The Cupertino, California-based tech giant was saved by its oldest technology, its laptop computers, while its star, the iPhone, stumbled.</p><p>Although iPhone sales were not as strong as some analysts had targeted, they were still a record for the September quarter. Mac sales of $11.5 billion were far head of analyst estimates of $9.36 billion.</p><p>Apple's results showed some resilience in the face of a weak economy and strong U.S. dollar that has led to disastrous reports from many tech companies. Like Facebook parent Meta and Snap, Apple is seeing softness in advertising spending. Overall, Apple said quarterly revenue rose 8% to $90.1 billion, above estimates of $88.9 billion, and net profit was $1.29 per share, topping with the average analyst estimate of $1.27 per share, according to Refinitiv data.</p><p>"We did better than we anticipated, in spite of the fact that foreign exchange was a significant negative for us," said Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri.</p><p>The rising U.S. dollar has hit many companies such as Apple that generate substantial foreign revenue and are getting less cash back when they convert it.

After Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Icahn sold his stake in the company, which he had held since 2019. On the flip side, Warren Buffett has been buying Occidental shares hand over fist throughout the year, scooping up over 20% of the American oil driller.</p><p>So which famous investor is right? Well, Buffett buying from Icahn has actually happened once before, with a small company you may have heard of called <b>Apple</b> (AAPL -3.22%).</p><p>Judging from that experience, Buffett could do very, very well with Occidental.</p><h2>Apple's buyback is a result of Icahn activism</h2><p>Carl Icahn is what is known as an activist investor. Activists buy shares in a company that is valued cheaply, due to something the investor perceives as a mistake or flaw. An activist usually purchases a meaningful position, then privately and publicly advocates for changes to unlock value.</p><p>Icahn took his first position in Apple in late 2013, when Apple was trading rather cheaply and had a ton of cash on its balance sheet. In January 2014, Icahn wrote a letter to the board and met with CEO Tim Cook, advocating that Apple begin returning that cash to shareholders in the form of share repurchases.</p><p>Buying back stock at a low valuation can add a lot of value to shareholders, but Apple had hoarded cash even as its iPhone sales grew massively in the early 2010s. That caution stemmed from Apple's more tumultuous past, when it nearly went bankrupt in the late 1990s.</p><p>Apple had already begun paying a small dividend, but did eventually implement a large buyback, as Icahn requested, in 2014 and 2015. In 2015, Apple also had a particularly good sales year, a result of its high growth in China. That year also included the introduction of the Apple Watch.</p><p>Yet after a boom in 2015, 2016 saw a slowdown, with the volatile China market giving back some its big 2015 gains. Icahn dumped his Apple stake, saying he was "worried about China." But he had already made a $2 billion profit on a $3.2 billion investment.</p><h2>Buffett swoops in</h2><p>Of course, that very downturn was when Warren Buffett began buying Apple for <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>'s (BRK.A -0.59%) (BRK.B -1.13%) portfolio. As Buffett watchers know by now, Buffett made even bigger gains than Icahn. Over the five years though 2021, Buffett's investment in Apple went up more than fivefold, and became Buffett's greatest investment in terms of overall dollar returns.</p><p>Buffett likely identified Apple not only as a cheap stock amid the pessimism of 2016, but also as a powerful brand with huge customer loyalty. With the smartphone becoming such an important part of people's lives, it was also becoming "expensive real estate." At that time, Apple was also extending its brand to services, charging fees to third-party apps for access to that real estate.</p><p>Buffett probably liked the recurring nature of Apple's service and app store fees that it could extract from both iPhone owners and businesses looking to gain access to those masses of affluent consumers.</p><p>When you combine that with Apple's newfound improved capital allocation to shareholders, the investment seems like a no-brainer in retrospect.</p><p>So while Icahn saw a good but flawed business he could improve and then exit for a quick profit, Buffett likely saw a now-flawlessly run business (after Icahn's fixes) that he could own for the long haul.</p><h2>Is the same thing happening with Occidental?</h2><p>Turning to Occidental, Icahn bought shares in the company after its expensive $38 billion acquisition of Anadarko Petroleum back in May 2019. Shares plunged, as investors believed Occidental paid too much in a bidding war.</p><p>Icahn bought shares, accused management of making a terrible acquisition, and advocated firing CEO Vicki Hollub while demanding seats on the board of directors. When oil prices plunged in March of 2020 as COVID-19 spread, Icahn increased his stake and therefore his heft in the company.</p><p>Eventually, Icahn struck a deal, allowing him to put two of his deputies and another hand-picked executive on the board, while also bringing in former CEO Stephen Chazen to become executive chairman. The new board also formed a committee that would oversee any acquisitions, putting a check on Gollub's power, while also exploring a sale of the company to another oil major.</p><p>Eventually, the oil market recovered strongly from the pandemic downturn, as demand normalized after a year of big industry supply cuts. When Russia invaded Ukraine, oil spiked, as did Occidental's stock, and Icahn exited the investment with a handsome $1 billion in profits, along with another $500 million gain in Occidental warrants.</p><h2>Once again, Buffett thinks longer term</h2><p>While Buffett hasn't spoken much publicly this year on his Occidental buys, he likely has a bullish view of the oil market for the long term, while also appreciating Occidental specifically. Berkshire had already invested in Occidental in 2019 in the form of preferred stock to finance the Anadarko deal, but that was a safer fixed-income investment, albeit with warrants. So Buffett likely got to know management well during that time.</p><p>Yet no oil company can do really well without the price of oil and natural gas cooperating, and Buffett probably sees higher prices for longer in the oil market. That's likely for a number of reasons, including years of underinvestment in oil and gas exploration, U.S. shale companies consolidating and controlling their supply growth, and Russia's weaponizing of global energy markets.</p><p>In other words, Buffett is betting on a change from low to high oil prices, not dissimilar to the smartphone transitioning from mere gadget to an indispensable part of our daily lives.</p><h2>Both approaches can win, but nonprofessionals can only play one</h2><p>As you can see, both investors have different approaches. Icahn identifies cheap companies, then uses his financial heft and reputation to advocate for changes. After such changes are made and the investment improves, he usually exits, using the relatively quick profits to go on to the next special situation.</p><p>In contrast, Buffett tries to find quality stocks trading at cheap prices that he can hold for the long term, allowing the miracle of compounding to do its work.</p><p>While only institutional investors or incredibly wealthy individuals like Icahn can buy enough stock in a company to be an activist, any investor can attempt Buffett's more Foolish approach of long-term investing in excellent companies. Fortunately for us, that approach also tends to yield even more long-term profits, if done correctly.</p><p>But excellent companies don't often go on sale. It's interesting that in the situations of both Apple and Occidental, Icahn was able to improve capital allocation at an otherwise well-run business. Icahn even praised Occidental's land inventory and management's operational capabilities, even while advocating for changes.</p><p>Those changes likely made Buffett more comfortable in the compounding ability of each stock, and he probably identified these improvements as more permanent before the market did.</p><p>So why doesn't Icahn hold on to his "fixed companies" for the long term, as Buffett does? Icahn appears to idealize the strategy of activism and improving companies, almost irrespective of profit. In order to continue launching new campaigns, Icahn needs to continue recycling his older bets in order to bid for new targets. So Icahn exiting a stock might not mean he feels the stock is now a bad investment, it's just that his work is now done.</p><p>We'll see how Occidental fares in the future, but since buying a "fixed up" Apple worked out so well for Buffett last time, you have to like his odds with Occidental -- as long as the thesis of higher oil prices for a longer time proves true.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

After Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Icahn sold his stake in the company, which he had held since 2019. On the flip side, Warren Buffett has been buying Occidental shares hand over fist throughout the year, scooping up over 20% of the American oil driller.So which famous investor is right? Well, Buffett buying from Icahn has actually happened once before, with a small company you may have heard of called Apple (AAPL -3.22%).Judging from that experience, Buffett could do very, very well with Occidental.Apple's buyback is a result of Icahn activismCarl Icahn is what is known as an activist investor. Activists buy shares in a company that is valued cheaply, due to something the investor perceives as a mistake or flaw. An activist usually purchases a meaningful position, then privately and publicly advocates for changes to unlock value.Icahn took his first position in Apple in late 2013, when Apple was trading rather cheaply and had a ton of cash on its balance sheet. In January 2014, Icahn wrote a letter to the board and met with CEO Tim Cook, advocating that Apple begin returning that cash to shareholders in the form of share repurchases.Buying back stock at a low valuation can add a lot of value to shareholders, but Apple had hoarded cash even as its iPhone sales grew massively in the early 2010s. That caution stemmed from Apple's more tumultuous past, when it nearly went bankrupt in the late 1990s.Apple had already begun paying a small dividend, but did eventually implement a large buyback, as Icahn requested, in 2014 and 2015. In 2015, Apple also had a particularly good sales year, a result of its high growth in China. That year also included the introduction of the Apple Watch.Yet after a boom in 2015, 2016 saw a slowdown, with the volatile China market giving back some its big 2015 gains. Icahn dumped his Apple stake, saying he was \"worried about China.\" But he had already made a $2 billion profit on a $3.2 billion investment.Buffett swoops inOf course, that very downturn was when Warren Buffett began buying Apple for Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK.A -0.59%) (BRK.B -1.13%) portfolio. As Buffett watchers know by now, Buffett made even bigger gains than Icahn. Over the five years though 2021, Buffett's investment in Apple went up more than fivefold, and became Buffett's greatest investment in terms of overall dollar returns.Buffett likely identified Apple not only as a cheap stock amid the pessimism of 2016, but also as a powerful brand with huge customer loyalty. With the smartphone becoming such an important part of people's lives, it was also becoming \"expensive real estate.\" At that time, Apple was also extending its brand to services, charging fees to third-party apps for access to that real estate.Buffett probably liked the recurring nature of Apple's service and app store fees that it could extract from both iPhone owners and businesses looking to gain access to those masses of affluent consumers.When you combine that with Apple's newfound improved capital allocation to shareholders, the investment seems like a no-brainer in retrospect.So while Icahn saw a good but flawed business he could improve and then exit for a quick profit, Buffett likely saw a now-flawlessly run business (after Icahn's fixes) that he could own for the long haul.Is the same thing happening with Occidental?Turning to Occidental, Icahn bought shares in the company after its expensive $38 billion acquisition of Anadarko Petroleum back in May 2019. Shares plunged, as investors believed Occidental paid too much in a bidding war.Icahn bought shares, accused management of making a terrible acquisition, and advocated firing CEO Vicki Hollub while demanding seats on the board of directors. When oil prices plunged in March of 2020 as COVID-19 spread, Icahn increased his stake and therefore his heft in the company.Eventually, Icahn struck a deal, allowing him to put two of his deputies and another hand-picked executive on the board, while also bringing in former CEO Stephen Chazen to become executive chairman. The new board also formed a committee that would oversee any acquisitions, putting a check on Gollub's power, while also exploring a sale of the company to another oil major.Eventually, the oil market recovered strongly from the pandemic downturn, as demand normalized after a year of big industry supply cuts. When Russia invaded Ukraine, oil spiked, as did Occidental's stock, and Icahn exited the investment with a handsome $1 billion in profits, along with another $500 million gain in Occidental warrants.Once again, Buffett thinks longer termWhile Buffett hasn't spoken much publicly this year on his Occidental buys, he likely has a bullish view of the oil market for the long term, while also appreciating Occidental specifically. Berkshire had already invested in Occidental in 2019 in the form of preferred stock to finance the Anadarko deal, but that was a safer fixed-income investment, albeit with warrants. So Buffett likely got to know management well during that time.Yet no oil company can do really well without the price of oil and natural gas cooperating, and Buffett probably sees higher prices for longer in the oil market. That's likely for a number of reasons, including years of underinvestment in oil and gas exploration, U.S. shale companies consolidating and controlling their supply growth, and Russia's weaponizing of global energy markets.In other words, Buffett is betting on a change from low to high oil prices, not dissimilar to the smartphone transitioning from mere gadget to an indispensable part of our daily lives.Both approaches can win, but nonprofessionals can only play oneAs you can see, both investors have different approaches. Icahn identifies cheap companies, then uses his financial heft and reputation to advocate for changes. After such changes are made and the investment improves, he usually exits, using the relatively quick profits to go on to the next special situation.In contrast, Buffett tries to find quality stocks trading at cheap prices that he can hold for the long term, allowing the miracle of compounding to do its work.While only institutional investors or incredibly wealthy individuals like Icahn can buy enough stock in a company to be an activist, any investor can attempt Buffett's more Foolish approach of long-term investing in excellent companies. Fortunately for us, that approach also tends to yield even more long-term profits, if done correctly.But excellent companies don't often go on sale. It's interesting that in the situations of both Apple and Occidental, Icahn was able to improve capital allocation at an otherwise well-run business. Icahn even praised Occidental's land inventory and management's operational capabilities, even while advocating for changes.Those changes likely made Buffett more comfortable in the compounding ability of each stock, and he probably identified these improvements as more permanent before the market did.So why doesn't Icahn hold on to his \"fixed companies\" for the long term, as Buffett does? Icahn appears to idealize the strategy of activism and improving companies, almost irrespective of profit. In order to continue launching new campaigns, Icahn needs to continue recycling his older bets in order to bid for new targets. So Icahn exiting a stock might not mean he feels the stock is now a bad investment, it's just that his work is now done.We'll see how Occidental fares in the future, but since buying a \"fixed up\" Apple worked out so well for Buffett last time, you have to like his odds with Occidental -- as long as the thesis of higher oil prices for a longer time proves true.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9960441745,"gmtCreate":1668233731087,"gmtModify":1676538032719,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"All the back end greedy idiots are manipulating the crypto world through speculating and evil ways.

FTX Group, his conglomerate of 130 entities—including the FTX exchange and Alameda Research, a market maker and trading firm—filed for U.S. bankruptcy protection on Friday.</p><p>Bankman-Fried resigned as CEO from the group, issuing a mea culpa on Twitter. “I’m really sorry, again, that we ended up here,” he said in a stream of tweets. “I’m piecing together all of the details, but I was shocked to see things unravel the way they did earlier this week,” he added.</p><p>Bankman-Fried wasn’t the only one expressing shock. FTX, the world’s second largest crypto exchange, collapsed over a few chaotic days, brought down by a liquidity crisis as customers lost confidence in the exchange. Essentially, it was an old-fashioned run on the bank, with no federal regulator or private entity willing to prop up FTX, unwind the operations, or contain the fallout.</p><p>The collateral damage is likely to be vast. FTX and Alameda played central roles in crypto trading, market making, lending, and bailouts of other firms. FTX had attracted investment from prominent venture-capital firms, pension funds, and hedge funds. Some of them invested in FTX at a valuation of $32 billion just a few months ago. They are now marking down their investments to zero.</p><p>The unraveling has already knocked more than $125 billion in market cap off Bitcoin and other tokens. FTX has frozen customer accounts. Its U.S. entity, FTX US, had said it would probably halt trading within days, though its website was still operational on Friday, including a pitch to “join some of the world’s biggest names who trust FTX,” showing photos of Tom Brady and Stephen Curry.</p><p>Other entities that have paused withdrawals include BlockFi, a crypto lender that FTX bailed out last summer. More entities and counterparties with exposure to FTX are likely to be revealed as the bankruptcy proceedings get rolling.</p><p>Regulators are now under far more pressure to ramp up supervision of an industry that has so far thrived on opacity and a lack of clear rules. “I hope some of these firms take note and actually work with us and get registered, or we’ll certainly be doing what we need to do, being a cop on the beat,” said Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler at a conference on Wednesday.</p><p>It’s unclear how crypto will clean up its latest mess. Indeed, what little credibility crypto had is being tested anew, raising questions about whether the whole edifice will simply crumble under its own weight.</p><p>“Those who were skeptical about crypto will become even more skeptical. They’re not wrong to feel that way,” says Ric Edelman, head of the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals.</p><p>Before his empire fell apart, Bankman-Fried had been viewed as a kind of crypto philosopher king. A 30-year-old Californian, educated at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he built FTX and Alameda into the very fabric of crypto infrastructure, playing a leading role in derivatives, trading, and market-making activity.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c380e6b530fb0a8f21ae5df380dcfabf\" tg-width=\"939\" tg-height=\"639\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>As FTX and its related entities grew into a multibillion-dollar empire, Bankman-Fried parlayed his wealth and prominence widely. He spent millions on sports, including naming rights to the Miami Heat’s National Basketball Association arena and sponsorship of Formula 1 racing cars. He also promised to donate most of his fortune to charities. And he became a fixture on Capitol Hill, arguing for regulation and donating to political campaigns in a bid to bring crypto into the mainstream.</p><p>Bankman-Fried also built a reputation as a crypto white knight—a banker of last resort. BlockFi and Voyager Digitalboth got bailouts or lines of credit, though Voyager didn’t survive. Bankman-Fried also invested in other crypto platforms, including Robinhood Markets (ticker: HOOD), owning a 7.5% stake in the company worth $570 million at recent prices.</p><p>The collapse of FTX could prove costly, well beyond crypto. FTX’s venture-capital investors included big names like Sequoia Capital, Tiger Global Management, and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan. Sequoia now says that its investment is worth zero.</p><p>Analysts expect more companies to reveal exposures and losses. “There could be other cascading failures that could emerge,” says Lucas Nuzzi, head of research and development at Coin Metrics, a research firm working on a report that may identify additional counterparties to FTX and Alameda.</p><p>One immediate impact, of course, is sheer fear of crypto. Potential investors in start-ups are now more likely to shy away, says Antonio Juliano, CEO of dYdX, one of the largest decentralized-finance, or DeFi, exchanges. “This will decrease interest in crypto for the short to medium term,” he says.</p><p>There may also be a chill on crypto demand as investors question whether their tokens, custodied through brokerages and exchanges, will be accessible in the event of a bankruptcy. FTX used customer assets for trading at Alameda without their knowledge, according to media reports. When Alameda couldn’t meet its obligations, it spilled over to FTX’s customer base.</p><p>Equity brokerages and exchanges regulated by the SEC would never be allowed to use customer assets in that way. Those lines are largely absent in crypto, however. U.S. exchange are licensed by states as money-transfer businesses. And there is no regulatory body supervising operations of global exchanges like Bahamas-based FTX.</p><p>Coinbase Global (COIN), the largest U.S.-based exchange, said this past week that “there can’t be a run on the bank” at the firm and that it lends customer assets only with approval.</p><p>Nonetheless, the collapse of FTX underscores the market’s concentration in a handful of companies. And it reveals how even two of the big players can shake the foundations.</p><p>FTX’s demise started when CoinDesk reported that Alameda’s balance sheet consisted partly of a token called FTT, which is used for trading and commissions on the FTX exchange. Days later, Changpeng Zhao, the leader of Binance—the world’s largest crypto exchange—said he planned to unload more than $500 million worth of FTT that his firm had acquired.</p><p>With that, the run on FTX began. On Sunday, FTX saw $5 billion in customer withdrawals. Bankman-Fried then sought emerging funding to cover shortfalls, estimated at $8 billion. On Tuesday, Binance appeared to be a savior, signing a letter of intent to buy FTX. The next day, Binance pulled out, saying that “the issues are beyond our control or ability to help.”</p><p>Bankman-Fried has said that he thought it likely that Zhao never intended to buy FTX. “Well played; you won,” he said on Twitter, in an apparent allusion to Zhao taking out a rival.</p><p>FTX did not respond to a request for comment. Binance declined to comment.</p><p>The regulatory fallout is just starting. Democrats in Congress are calling for hearings, and the White House has weighed in. “The most recent news...highlights why prudent regulation of cryptocurrencies is indeed needed,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.</p><p>U.S. enforcement agencies are now expanding inquiries. If the SEC alleges that FTX broke securities laws, it could create liability for the entire industry. “That’s what can really shake the industry,” says Tyler Gellasch, a former SEC senior counsel.</p><p>Representatives for the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.</p><p>Even if FTX’s troubles seem remote, the damage is likely to keep affecting tokens, brokerages like Coinbase and Robinhood, and the many banks, lenders, and tech companies trying to build crypto businesses.</p><p>“FTX and SBF were these megawatt stars in crypto and had garnered a lot of trust, not just among institutional investors but also among regulators,” says Morningstar’s Madeline Hume, referring to Bankman-Fried. “The risk of contagion has never been higher.”</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1610680873436","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>A $32 Billion Crypto Empire Has Crashed.

More entities and counterparties with exposure to FTX are likely to be revealed as the bankruptcy proceedings get rolling.Regulators are now under far more pressure to ramp up supervision of an industry that has so far thrived on opacity and a lack of clear rules. “I hope some of these firms take note and actually work with us and get registered, or we’ll certainly be doing what we need to do, being a cop on the beat,” said Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler at a conference on Wednesday.It’s unclear how crypto will clean up its latest mess. Indeed, what little credibility crypto had is being tested anew, raising questions about whether the whole edifice will simply crumble under its own weight.“Those who were skeptical about crypto will become even more skeptical. They’re not wrong to feel that way,” says Ric Edelman, head of the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals.Before his empire fell apart, Bankman-Fried had been viewed as a kind of crypto philosopher king. A 30-year-old Californian, educated at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he built FTX and Alameda into the very fabric of crypto infrastructure, playing a leading role in derivatives, trading, and market-making activity.As FTX and its related entities grew into a multibillion-dollar empire, Bankman-Fried parlayed his wealth and prominence widely. He spent millions on sports, including naming rights to the Miami Heat’s National Basketball Association arena and sponsorship of Formula 1 racing cars. He also promised to donate most of his fortune to charities. And he became a fixture on Capitol Hill, arguing for regulation and donating to political campaigns in a bid to bring crypto into the mainstream.Bankman-Fried also built a reputation as a crypto white knight—a banker of last resort. BlockFi and Voyager Digitalboth got bailouts or lines of credit, though Voyager didn’t survive. Bankman-Fried also invested in other crypto platforms, including Robinhood Markets (ticker: HOOD), owning a 7.5% stake in the company worth $570 million at recent prices.The collapse of FTX could prove costly, well beyond crypto. FTX’s venture-capital investors included big names like Sequoia Capital, Tiger Global Management, and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan. Sequoia now says that its investment is worth zero.Analysts expect more companies to reveal exposures and losses. “There could be other cascading failures that could emerge,” says Lucas Nuzzi, head of research and development at Coin Metrics, a research firm working on a report that may identify additional counterparties to FTX and Alameda.One immediate impact, of course, is sheer fear of crypto. Potential investors in start-ups are now more likely to shy away, says Antonio Juliano, CEO of dYdX, one of the largest decentralized-finance, or DeFi, exchanges. “This will decrease interest in crypto for the short to medium term,” he says.There may also be a chill on crypto demand as investors question whether their tokens, custodied through brokerages and exchanges, will be accessible in the event of a bankruptcy. FTX used customer assets for trading at Alameda without their knowledge, according to media reports. When Alameda couldn’t meet its obligations, it spilled over to FTX’s customer base.Equity brokerages and exchanges regulated by the SEC would never be allowed to use customer assets in that way. Those lines are largely absent in crypto, however. U.S. exchange are licensed by states as money-transfer businesses. And there is no regulatory body supervising operations of global exchanges like Bahamas-based FTX.Coinbase Global (COIN), the largest U.S.-based exchange, said this past week that “there can’t be a run on the bank” at the firm and that it lends customer assets only with approval.Nonetheless, the collapse of FTX underscores the market’s concentration in a handful of companies. And it reveals how even two of the big players can shake the foundations.FTX’s demise started when CoinDesk reported that Alameda’s balance sheet consisted partly of a token called FTT, which is used for trading and commissions on the FTX exchange. Days later, Changpeng Zhao, the leader of Binance—the world’s largest crypto exchange—said he planned to unload more than $500 million worth of FTT that his firm had acquired.With that, the run on FTX began. On Sunday, FTX saw $5 billion in customer withdrawals. Bankman-Fried then sought emerging funding to cover shortfalls, estimated at $8 billion. On Tuesday, Binance appeared to be a savior, signing a letter of intent to buy FTX. The next day, Binance pulled out, saying that “the issues are beyond our control or ability to help.”Bankman-Fried has said that he thought it likely that Zhao never intended to buy FTX. “Well played; you won,” he said on Twitter, in an apparent allusion to Zhao taking out a rival.FTX did not respond to a request for comment. Binance declined to comment.The regulatory fallout is just starting. Democrats in Congress are calling for hearings, and the White House has weighed in. “The most recent news...highlights why prudent regulation of cryptocurrencies is indeed needed,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.U.S. enforcement agencies are now expanding inquiries. If the SEC alleges that FTX broke securities laws, it could create liability for the entire industry. “That’s what can really shake the industry,” says Tyler Gellasch, a former SEC senior counsel.Representatives for the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.Even if FTX’s troubles seem remote, the damage is likely to keep affecting tokens, brokerages like Coinbase and Robinhood, and the many banks, lenders, and tech companies trying to build crypto businesses.“FTX and SBF were these megawatt stars in crypto and had garnered a lot of trust, not just among institutional investors but also among regulators,” says Morningstar’s Madeline Hume, referring to Bankman-Fried. “The risk of contagion has never been higher.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":764,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":199106391089424,"gmtCreate":1689646009161,"gmtModify":1689646013026,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh yeah ","listText":"Oh yeah ","text":"Oh yeah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/199106391089424","repostId":"2352750610","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":244066048606256,"gmtCreate":1700610334924,"gmtModify":1700610339950,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Who the hell will trust these people associated with ftx previously","listText":"Who the hell will trust these people associated with ftx previously","text":"Who the hell will trust these people associated with ftx previously","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/244066048606256","repostId":"1163057727","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":563,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9920433438,"gmtCreate":1670540206524,"gmtModify":1676538387289,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Continue to grow please","listText":"Continue to grow please","text":"Continue to grow please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9920433438","repostId":"2289465273","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2289465273","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1670466439,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2289465273?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-08 10:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here's Why AMD Stock Rose 29% in November","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2289465273","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Investors love this semiconductor stock's opportunity in the data center market.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>What happened</h2><p>Shares of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD </a> climbed 29.3% in November following a positive earnings announcement, a new product announcement, and analyst upgrades.

Also: Apple’s Arizona chip plans become clearer, another pair of top executives depart, and the company’s xrOS-based headset approaches.</p><p>Last time in Power On: Twitter’s survival as a subscription service relies on Apple and Google.</p><h3>The Starters</h3><p>Elon Musk and Apple Inc. each have a lot to lose if Twitter gets booted from the App Store. But there’s a solution for both parties to avoid a fight, while giving Musk exactly what he wants.</p><p>First off, it’s clear that Twitter would struggle to survive an all-out war with Apple. The App Store provides access to more than 1.5 billion devices, and it’s a top way for people to get the Twitter app. Musk has said that he could build his own phone and operating system—letting him sidestep Apple and Google—but the complexity of that endeavor makes it highly unlikely.</p><p>Apple, too, would have a catastrophe on its hands. If the company blocks Twitter, its top executives could end up testifying on Capitol Hill for weeks. The Apple brand would be tarnished and seen as politically biased. And, of course, the platform would no longer have Twitter—an app that helps keep consumers glued to Apple devices.</p><p>It’s no accident that Musk called his skirmish with Apple a “battle for the future of civilization” and accused the company of censorship—despite his bigger gripe with Apple being about its fees. Musk is signaling to lawmakers and the court of public opinion that if Apple removes Twitter or stifles it in any way, the tech giant is doing so to limit free speech.</p><p>The reality is that Apple will give Twitter an unprecedented amount of leeway and only pull the app if it violates the App Store’s golden rule: You Must Give Apple 30%.</p><p>That commission is a serious problem for Musk. He recently spent $44 billion on Twitter, which he has acknowledged was too much. Musk has made it clear he hopes to fix up Twitter and resell it or take it public within three years. He’s also promised to make Twitter more subscription-centric and add new features and upgrades to improve the bottom line.</p><p>But turning Twitter into a full-on subscription business, with the goal of making back his money in three years, is probably next to impossible—especially when you factor in that Apple is going to take 30% of that money off the top before taxes. Making matters worse, Apple has cut back on its advertising spending on Twitter. (Musk said over the weekend that the ad spending has been restored.)</p><p>So it’s perhaps no surprise that Musk, a billionaire businessman, went off on Apple this past week. He understands that the iPhone maker is an impediment to his financial goals. And he’s using the idea of free speech to protect himself.</p><p>That’s why Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive officer, needed to step in and calm tensions. The two men met at Apple’s headquarters last week, and Musk said he was told that Apple never contemplated removing the Twitter app—walking back an idea that, to be clear, was suggested by Musk himself.</p><p>But the standoff may not be over. If Musk tries to circumvent Apple’s App Store fees, Cook will indeed be in the position of having to decide whether to pull Twitter.</p><p>On the surface that sounds like a difficult decision, but there really isn’t a choice: If Twitter puts its own payment system within the app and bypasses Apple’s fees, Cook will need to follow his own rules and remove the app (probably after offering Musk a few days to change his mind).</p><p>There are probably plenty of people who might argue that society is better off if Musk’s Twitter is booted from the store given its more hands-off approach to content moderation and suspending accounts. But it’s clear that Cook doesn’t want it to come to this.</p><p>It’s not about the money that Apple would lose from Twitter fees, but the risk of a crisis within the larger ecosystem. If Musk publicly flouts Apple’s rules, that will set off a domino effect of other apps looking to do the same. The entire App Store business model could come crashing down.</p><p>So Cook needed to calm Musk. The question now is how long the truce may last. No matter what was discussed in their meeting at the Apple Park headquarters in Cupertino, California, it’s unlikely Musk will just quietly accept the 30% fee (a commission the Tesla Inc. magnate has criticized for years).</p><p>The good news is there’s a perfectly legal solution (if you consider Apple’s App Store guidelines the law) that will let both companies avoid a crisis—while still allowing Musk to get his full $8 for Twitter Blue subscriptions.</p><p>Twitter can build a website to take payments online for the Blue service and other subscriptions and then urge users to sign up for the social network on the web. When users then log in to Twitter on their iPhone or iPad, that subscription will be unlocked without the payment having to be processed through Apple.</p><p>That would save Musk the 30%, minus any credit card processing fees. This is legal because of section 3.1.3(b) of the App Store guidelines, known as the Multiplatform Services rule, which says that subscriptions can carry over from other platforms—including the web—so long as they are also available through in-app purchase.</p><p>Musk can charge his $8 on the web and then add 30% to that price (making it $10 to $11) for the version through the Twitter app on the iPhone. Then he gets his $8 either way, but it encourages users to use the web method.</p><p>The caveat is Musk can’t promote the web payment plan anywhere within the app, so the change may require a marketing push.</p><p>By carefully leveraging the App Store rules, Musk could essentially circumvent Apple’s 30% cut and keep his app on the App Store, avoiding a dilemma for both himself and Apple. And I think Cook and Apple would consider that a win too.</p><h3>The Bench</h3><p>Apple’s plan to produce chips in Arizona gets clearer. I wrote weeks ago that Apple would be sourcing chips from a plant in Arizona, and now we have a bit more detail. The company will indeed be producing chips with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. at its partner’s facility set to open in 2024.</p><p>While the factory was initially only supposed to produce 5-nanometer processors at the outset, it’s now poised to have 4-nanometer capabilities when it goes online. (Generally speaking, the smaller the number of nanometers, the more advanced the chip.) That means the factory will be a whole lot more useful to Apple.</p><p>It’s also a win for efforts to bring chip production back to the US, at least in a limited way. Now the question is whether Apple may try to shift other manufacturing to its home country. For now, that doesn’t seem likely—aside from the occasional small project like producing the Mac Pro in Texas. Even that product isn’t guaranteed to stay in the US. Apple is readying a new model with homegrown chips, and it’s unclear if it will be made domestically.</p><p>pple changes name of realityOS to xrOS as headset launch approaches. For the past seven years or so, Apple has referred to its upcoming mixed-reality operating system as “realityOS” or “rOS.” That changed recently, suggesting that Apple is finally gearing up for a launch of its long-anticipated headset. The operating system’s name is now the simpler “xrOS.”</p><p>Besides being less of a mouthful, the use of “xr” instead of “reality” helps Apple signal that it’s not just doing augmented reality or virtual reality—it’s pursuing a truly mixed-reality experience. The “xr” term is also easily used globally (whereas “reality” may be difficult to translate) and fits alongside iOS, macOS, tvOS, iPadOS and watchOS.</p><p>In addition to making the name change internally, Apple appears to have filed applications in several countries for the xrOS name, a sign the company is locking in that brand for the final product. As for the headset itself, I am still expecting a launch in 2023.</p><h3>Roster Changes</h3><p><b>Another two Apple vice presidents depart.</b>With more top executives leaving Apple, the turnover is reaching the point where it might be cause for concern.</p><p>In one of the latest moves, Apple’s John Stauffer hasexited for a role at Roblox Corp., the gaming platform. He had served as a vice president of software engineering in charge of the Interactive Media Group, which oversees graphics, displays, FaceTime and streaming features like AirPlay.

Also: Apple’s Arizona chip plans become clearer, another pair of top executives depart, and the company’s xrOS-based headset approaches.Last time in Power On: Twitter’s survival as a subscription service relies on Apple and Google.The StartersElon Musk and Apple Inc. each have a lot to lose if Twitter gets booted from the App Store. But there’s a solution for both parties to avoid a fight, while giving Musk exactly what he wants.First off, it’s clear that Twitter would struggle to survive an all-out war with Apple. The App Store provides access to more than 1.5 billion devices, and it’s a top way for people to get the Twitter app. Musk has said that he could build his own phone and operating system—letting him sidestep Apple and Google—but the complexity of that endeavor makes it highly unlikely.Apple, too, would have a catastrophe on its hands. If the company blocks Twitter, its top executives could end up testifying on Capitol Hill for weeks. The Apple brand would be tarnished and seen as politically biased. And, of course, the platform would no longer have Twitter—an app that helps keep consumers glued to Apple devices.It’s no accident that Musk called his skirmish with Apple a “battle for the future of civilization” and accused the company of censorship—despite his bigger gripe with Apple being about its fees. Musk is signaling to lawmakers and the court of public opinion that if Apple removes Twitter or stifles it in any way, the tech giant is doing so to limit free speech.The reality is that Apple will give Twitter an unprecedented amount of leeway and only pull the app if it violates the App Store’s golden rule: You Must Give Apple 30%.That commission is a serious problem for Musk. He recently spent $44 billion on Twitter, which he has acknowledged was too much. Musk has made it clear he hopes to fix up Twitter and resell it or take it public within three years. He’s also promised to make Twitter more subscription-centric and add new features and upgrades to improve the bottom line.But turning Twitter into a full-on subscription business, with the goal of making back his money in three years, is probably next to impossible—especially when you factor in that Apple is going to take 30% of that money off the top before taxes. Making matters worse, Apple has cut back on its advertising spending on Twitter. (Musk said over the weekend that the ad spending has been restored.)So it’s perhaps no surprise that Musk, a billionaire businessman, went off on Apple this past week. He understands that the iPhone maker is an impediment to his financial goals. And he’s using the idea of free speech to protect himself.That’s why Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive officer, needed to step in and calm tensions. The two men met at Apple’s headquarters last week, and Musk said he was told that Apple never contemplated removing the Twitter app—walking back an idea that, to be clear, was suggested by Musk himself.But the standoff may not be over. If Musk tries to circumvent Apple’s App Store fees, Cook will indeed be in the position of having to decide whether to pull Twitter.On the surface that sounds like a difficult decision, but there really isn’t a choice: If Twitter puts its own payment system within the app and bypasses Apple’s fees, Cook will need to follow his own rules and remove the app (probably after offering Musk a few days to change his mind).There are probably plenty of people who might argue that society is better off if Musk’s Twitter is booted from the store given its more hands-off approach to content moderation and suspending accounts. But it’s clear that Cook doesn’t want it to come to this.It’s not about the money that Apple would lose from Twitter fees, but the risk of a crisis within the larger ecosystem. If Musk publicly flouts Apple’s rules, that will set off a domino effect of other apps looking to do the same. The entire App Store business model could come crashing down.So Cook needed to calm Musk. The question now is how long the truce may last. No matter what was discussed in their meeting at the Apple Park headquarters in Cupertino, California, it’s unlikely Musk will just quietly accept the 30% fee (a commission the Tesla Inc. magnate has criticized for years).The good news is there’s a perfectly legal solution (if you consider Apple’s App Store guidelines the law) that will let both companies avoid a crisis—while still allowing Musk to get his full $8 for Twitter Blue subscriptions.Twitter can build a website to take payments online for the Blue service and other subscriptions and then urge users to sign up for the social network on the web. When users then log in to Twitter on their iPhone or iPad, that subscription will be unlocked without the payment having to be processed through Apple.That would save Musk the 30%, minus any credit card processing fees. This is legal because of section 3.1.3(b) of the App Store guidelines, known as the Multiplatform Services rule, which says that subscriptions can carry over from other platforms—including the web—so long as they are also available through in-app purchase.Musk can charge his $8 on the web and then add 30% to that price (making it $10 to $11) for the version through the Twitter app on the iPhone. Then he gets his $8 either way, but it encourages users to use the web method.The caveat is Musk can’t promote the web payment plan anywhere within the app, so the change may require a marketing push.By carefully leveraging the App Store rules, Musk could essentially circumvent Apple’s 30% cut and keep his app on the App Store, avoiding a dilemma for both himself and Apple. And I think Cook and Apple would consider that a win too.The BenchApple’s plan to produce chips in Arizona gets clearer. I wrote weeks ago that Apple would be sourcing chips from a plant in Arizona, and now we have a bit more detail. The company will indeed be producing chips with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. at its partner’s facility set to open in 2024.While the factory was initially only supposed to produce 5-nanometer processors at the outset, it’s now poised to have 4-nanometer capabilities when it goes online. (Generally speaking, the smaller the number of nanometers, the more advanced the chip.) That means the factory will be a whole lot more useful to Apple.It’s also a win for efforts to bring chip production back to the US, at least in a limited way. Now the question is whether Apple may try to shift other manufacturing to its home country. For now, that doesn’t seem likely—aside from the occasional small project like producing the Mac Pro in Texas. Even that product isn’t guaranteed to stay in the US. Apple is readying a new model with homegrown chips, and it’s unclear if it will be made domestically.pple changes name of realityOS to xrOS as headset launch approaches. For the past seven years or so, Apple has referred to its upcoming mixed-reality operating system as “realityOS” or “rOS.” That changed recently, suggesting that Apple is finally gearing up for a launch of its long-anticipated headset. The operating system’s name is now the simpler “xrOS.”Besides being less of a mouthful, the use of “xr” instead of “reality” helps Apple signal that it’s not just doing augmented reality or virtual reality—it’s pursuing a truly mixed-reality experience. The “xr” term is also easily used globally (whereas “reality” may be difficult to translate) and fits alongside iOS, macOS, tvOS, iPadOS and watchOS.In addition to making the name change internally, Apple appears to have filed applications in several countries for the xrOS name, a sign the company is locking in that brand for the final product. As for the headset itself, I am still expecting a launch in 2023.Roster ChangesAnother two Apple vice presidents depart.With more top executives leaving Apple, the turnover is reaching the point where it might be cause for concern.In one of the latest moves, Apple’s John Stauffer hasexited for a role at Roblox Corp., the gaming platform. He had served as a vice president of software engineering in charge of the Interactive Media Group, which oversees graphics, displays, FaceTime and streaming features like AirPlay. Second: Laura Legros has retired. She was a vice president of hardware engineering and introduced new MacBook Air and iPad models at launches in recent years.The vice president role at Apple is the most senior level below Tim Cook’s executive team of senior vice presidents, and now a significant number are stepping down. Let’s recap the VPs and other high-level executives who have departed—or announced the intention to leave—in the past few months:Evans Hankey, vice president of industrial designMary Demby, chief information officerJane Horvath, chief privacy officerDavid Smoley, vice president of software engineeringJohn Stauffer, vice president of software engineeringAnna Matthiasson, vice president of online retailTony Blevins, vice president of procurementLaura Legros, vice president of hardware engineeringI wouldn’t be surprised to see at least a couple more people leave in the coming weeks.

But investing your money is no joke.It's true that Dogecoin has been accepted as payment in some forums, but it's not taken as seriously by businesses as a stablecoin or even Ethereum or Polygon would be.I think the problem today is that meme coins are going to be taken even less seriously in the future. Real businesses will move in and use the blockchain, but they'll want to be taken seriously with tokens like Ethereum or stablecoins, not a meme with a dog image.The rise of Dogecoin was a by-product of the bull market in crypto. That bull market has come to a crashing end, and I think meme coins like Dogecoin will go with it.Stick to the best of the bestThe future of cryptocurrency is uncertain, but I think investors would be wise to stick with the highest quality and most widely used tokens available. Ethereum and Solana have two of the biggest development communities, and they would be better picks. Right now, being cautious is a wise approach, and one should stay out of tokens that have little to no use cases today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":429,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9966641864,"gmtCreate":1669526345958,"gmtModify":1676538205052,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Any risk takers still dare to venture into crypto currency scams","listText":"Any risk takers still dare to venture into crypto currency scams","text":"Any risk takers still dare to venture into crypto currency scams","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9966641864","repostId":"2286839697","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2286839697","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1669424518,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2286839697?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-26 09:01","market":"other","language":"en","title":"3 Cryptos to Buy in a Bear Market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2286839697","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The crypto winter just got a whole lot colder, but these top cryptos could be heating up.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The implosion of FTX, a previously trusted exchange that had a high profile with even casual investors, thanks to its extensive marketing, gave a black eye to a space that has already taken its lumps this year.</p><p>However, while many investors have sold their cryptocurrencies during the current crypto winter, for every seller there is a buyer, and some of them are long-term investors who have conviction in the crypto's potential.

Management's outlook called for a decline in platform revenue in the fourth quarter due to the weakening advertising market.

In fact, management said platform revenue could decline sequentially in the fourth quarter, despite the usual strength of the holiday season at the end of the year.</p><p>Meanwhile, Amazon, which has grown a massive advertising business over the last few years, is starting to take its foot off the gas pedal. It's freezing hiring for its advertising business, despite posting 30% year-over-year foreign currency-neutral revenue growth. The move is a surprise for the third-largest digital advertiser, especially considering its efforts to expand its video advertising inventory with sports rights, including <i>Thursday Night Football</i>.</p><p>The entire industry is facing significant headwinds just as Netflix and Disney are trying to ramp up ad sales.</p><h2>What it means for the streamers</h2><p>The ad-supported tier on streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ might not generate as much revenue as expected to start.</p><p>When Netflix announced the launch of the Basic with Ads tier, management said it anticipates the total revenue generated from the subscription and ad sales to equal or even exceed revenue from the subscription-only Basic tier. In other words, it expected to generate $3 per account per month in ad revenue.</p><p>While early ad sales have gone relatively well for Netflix, there are reports it's not able to command the high asking price it was originally looking for. The company was originally asking for $65 per 1,000 viewers, but it's settled for prices between $45 and $55, according to <i>The Wall Street Journal</i>.</p><p>Meanwhile, Disney has long been in the digital advertising market with its breadth of online properties and its operational control of Hulu. But as the biggest and most-experienced advertising companies struggle to grow sales, there's no reason to think Disney will be able to fare much better. In fact, Roku suggests the entire TV scatter market (all the ad inventory that's not bought up front) is seeing a decline in spending, which suggests Disney's TV networks could see reduced profitability in the near term.</p><p>Both streaming services plan to keep the total ad load low to start. And they face the challenge of generating enough revenue from ad sales to show strong revenue per user numbers relative to their subscription-only products. That's the opposite of what's historically been the case for ad-supported streaming services. Hulu, for example, consistently generates average revenue greater than its subscription-only price.</p><p>Investors shouldn't be surprised if Netflix or Disney's new ad-supported tiers create a drag on revenue per user for the first few quarters.

The move is a surprise for the third-largest digital advertiser, especially considering its efforts to expand its video advertising inventory with sports rights, including Thursday Night Football.The entire industry is facing significant headwinds just as Netflix and Disney are trying to ramp up ad sales.What it means for the streamersThe ad-supported tier on streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ might not generate as much revenue as expected to start.When Netflix announced the launch of the Basic with Ads tier, management said it anticipates the total revenue generated from the subscription and ad sales to equal or even exceed revenue from the subscription-only Basic tier. In other words, it expected to generate $3 per account per month in ad revenue.While early ad sales have gone relatively well for Netflix, there are reports it's not able to command the high asking price it was originally looking for. The company was originally asking for $65 per 1,000 viewers, but it's settled for prices between $45 and $55, according to The Wall Street Journal.Meanwhile, Disney has long been in the digital advertising market with its breadth of online properties and its operational control of Hulu. But as the biggest and most-experienced advertising companies struggle to grow sales, there's no reason to think Disney will be able to fare much better. In fact, Roku suggests the entire TV scatter market (all the ad inventory that's not bought up front) is seeing a decline in spending, which suggests Disney's TV networks could see reduced profitability in the near term.Both streaming services plan to keep the total ad load low to start. And they face the challenge of generating enough revenue from ad sales to show strong revenue per user numbers relative to their subscription-only products. That's the opposite of what's historically been the case for ad-supported streaming services. Hulu, for example, consistently generates average revenue greater than its subscription-only price.Investors shouldn't be surprised if Netflix or Disney's new ad-supported tiers create a drag on revenue per user for the first few quarters. But as the ad market recovers, they should show strong growth potential without the need to raise prices as quickly as the ad-free service. That could ultimately become a strength for both companies in the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":428,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9960454445,"gmtCreate":1668232870687,"gmtModify":1676538032543,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Some back end idiots must have gain in all these chaos.

With the possible exception of billionaires, just about everyone does. The idea spawned a British (and then an American) quiz show. On television, it can happen overnight.</p><p>In investing, becoming a millionaire takes time. Buying shares of high-performing companies can, over time, produce life-changing gains. <b>The</b> <b>Trade</b> <b>Desk</b>, <b>Paycom Software</b>, and <b>Align</b> <b>Technology</b> are three that I believe have that potential.</p><p>Let's look at their earnings, growth rates, and valuations to see how they could transform a $100,000 portfolio into a seven-figure retirement nest egg over the next decade.</p><h2>1. The Trade Desk</h2><p>There is an old saying in the advertising business that half of ad spending is wasted, but nobody knows which half. The Trade Desk is eliminating that waste with its data-driven self-service platform. Its customers manage their ad spending on more than 500 billion digital opportunities per day. The goal is to help customers make the most intelligent ad-buying decisions and provide them with an abundance of performance feedback. In today's digital economy, it's invaluable.</p><p>And business is growing like a weed. Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to climb more than 23% next year. That's a reasonable rate to use in our calculation. The company has grown revenue 375% over the past five years. Also, gross spend on Trade Desk's platform climbed 47% last year to $6.2 billion. And management pegs the global ad-spend opportunity at $750 billion, with about $50 billion in display advertising. That offers plenty of room to grow for years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3105e52ee3274f0a262bd444d428b18f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>TTD revenue (TTM). Data by YCharts. TTM = trailing 12 months.</p><p>Wall Street sees the potential. The Trade Desk's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio has varied between 40 and 120 over the past few years. We'll use 50 for our calculations.</p><p>Doing the math on an initial investment of $33,333.33 (a third of the $100,000) leads to a stake in The Trade Desk worth almost $190,000 in 2032. That relies on bold assumptions. But they are well within what the company has delivered so far.</p><h2>2. Paycom</h2><p>Paycom offers businesses a platform to manage employee payroll, time and attendance, and benefits administration, among other things. Its product was built for the cloud. That's different from many traditional human capital management (HCM) vendors that have pieced together acquired software over the years.</p><p>Customers can clearly tell the difference. Paycom topped $1 billion in revenue last year for the first time, a 26% increase over 2020. Most importantly, that revenue is recurring and sticky. Revenue retention was 94% in 2021. Customers stick around once they start using the platform.</p><p>Before the pandemic, Paycom's top line was expanding between 30% and 45% each year. We'll use last year's 26% for our calculation and apply a multiple of 60 times earnings. That seems high. But shares have stayed within a range of 50 to 100 times earnings over the years.</p><p>For Paycom, that <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-third of the $100,000 hypothetically invested in 2022 turns into more than $350,000 a decade from now. That would make it a 10-bagger. While it might seem unlikely, if the market continues to reward predictable revenue, and Paycom continues to grow, it's possible. After all, its $1.1 billion in 2021 revenue is a drop in the bucket of an HCM market that is predicted to reach $47 billion by 2029.</p><h2>3. Align Technology</h2><p>The company best known for its Invisalign clear teeth-straightening system is actually a vertically integrated combination of several businesses. They all help people get straighter teeth faster, and orthodontists and dentists see more clients every year. It also provides scanners and software -- two acquisitions -- that help practitioners develop and communicate a plan for patients.</p><p>The growth opportunity is tremendous. Management estimates 500 million potential customers in the world with 21 million orthodontic starts each year -- two-thirds of them teens. For context, it shipped 2.55 million aligners last year.</p><p>Align is the crown jewel in our attempt to grow a million-dollar portfolio. The $33,333.33 invested in it could grow over the next 10 years into $461,000. That's assuming the $12.50 analysts expect this year grows at the midpoint of management's long-term guidance of 20% to 30% a year. Similar to the other two stocks, Align typically trades at a premium. We'll use 50 times earnings, slightly above the bottom of the 40 to 100 historical P/E range. It's an amazing potential return when running the numbers.</p><h2>"It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future"</h2><p>That quote from Yankees legend Yogi Berra underscores a key point in the analysis above.

With the possible exception of billionaires, just about everyone does. The idea spawned a British (and then an American) quiz show. On television, it can happen overnight.In investing, becoming a millionaire takes time. Buying shares of high-performing companies can, over time, produce life-changing gains. The Trade Desk, Paycom Software, and Align Technology are three that I believe have that potential.Let's look at their earnings, growth rates, and valuations to see how they could transform a $100,000 portfolio into a seven-figure retirement nest egg over the next decade.1. The Trade DeskThere is an old saying in the advertising business that half of ad spending is wasted, but nobody knows which half. The Trade Desk is eliminating that waste with its data-driven self-service platform. Its customers manage their ad spending on more than 500 billion digital opportunities per day. The goal is to help customers make the most intelligent ad-buying decisions and provide them with an abundance of performance feedback. In today's digital economy, it's invaluable.And business is growing like a weed. Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to climb more than 23% next year. That's a reasonable rate to use in our calculation. The company has grown revenue 375% over the past five years. Also, gross spend on Trade Desk's platform climbed 47% last year to $6.2 billion. And management pegs the global ad-spend opportunity at $750 billion, with about $50 billion in display advertising. That offers plenty of room to grow for years.TTD revenue (TTM). Data by YCharts. TTM = trailing 12 months.Wall Street sees the potential. The Trade Desk's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio has varied between 40 and 120 over the past few years. We'll use 50 for our calculations.Doing the math on an initial investment of $33,333.33 (a third of the $100,000) leads to a stake in The Trade Desk worth almost $190,000 in 2032. That relies on bold assumptions. But they are well within what the company has delivered so far.2. PaycomPaycom offers businesses a platform to manage employee payroll, time and attendance, and benefits administration, among other things. Its product was built for the cloud. That's different from many traditional human capital management (HCM) vendors that have pieced together acquired software over the years.Customers can clearly tell the difference. Paycom topped $1 billion in revenue last year for the first time, a 26% increase over 2020. Most importantly, that revenue is recurring and sticky. Revenue retention was 94% in 2021. Customers stick around once they start using the platform.Before the pandemic, Paycom's top line was expanding between 30% and 45% each year. We'll use last year's 26% for our calculation and apply a multiple of 60 times earnings. That seems high. But shares have stayed within a range of 50 to 100 times earnings over the years.For Paycom, that one-third of the $100,000 hypothetically invested in 2022 turns into more than $350,000 a decade from now. That would make it a 10-bagger. While it might seem unlikely, if the market continues to reward predictable revenue, and Paycom continues to grow, it's possible. After all, its $1.1 billion in 2021 revenue is a drop in the bucket of an HCM market that is predicted to reach $47 billion by 2029.3. Align TechnologyThe company best known for its Invisalign clear teeth-straightening system is actually a vertically integrated combination of several businesses. They all help people get straighter teeth faster, and orthodontists and dentists see more clients every year. It also provides scanners and software -- two acquisitions -- that help practitioners develop and communicate a plan for patients.The growth opportunity is tremendous.

Over the past three months, all three major U.S. indexes have undergone their steepest corrections in two years. In fact, the technology-dependent <b>Nasdaq Composite</b> briefly entered bear market territory.</p><p>While the velocity of moves lower in the broad-market indexes can, at times, be scary, the key thing to remember is that pullbacks are always an opportunity for patient investors to go on the offensive. That's because every single crash or correction throughout history has eventually been placed into the rearview mirror by a bull market rally.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F672138%2Frolled-up-cash-money-invest-save-three-hundred-dollars-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p>Just as important, you don't need a mountain of cash to take advantage of these dips in the stock market. Since most online brokerages ditched commission fees and minimum deposit requirements, any amount of money -- even $300 -- can be the perfect amount to invest.</p><p>If you have $300 at the ready, which won't be needed for bills or to cover emergencies, here are some of the smartest stocks you can buy on the dip.</p><h2>Teladoc Health</h2><p>The first beaten-down stock to buy with $300 is the kingpin of telemedicine, <b>Teladoc Health</b>.</p><p>Skeptics have had two big issues with Teladoc over the past year. To begin with, they believe the company has enjoyed a pandemic-related benefit and its growth will slow dramatically when we exit the pandemic. Second, skeptics are concerned about Teladoc's back-to-back years of larger-than-expected losses following the pricey acquisition of Livongo Health. While I understand where this opposing view is coming from, neither of these headwinds has legs to stand on.</p><p>Although Teladoc did benefit nicely during the initial stages of the pandemic, investors need to recognize that this shift to virtual visit healthcare platforms began well before 2020. In the six years leading up to the pandemic, Teladoc's sales grew by an average annual rate of 74%! That's not a fluke. It's a sign that the way personalized care is administered in the U.S. is changing.</p><p>Telehealth is a win for all parties up and down the healthcare treatment chain. It's often more convenient for patients to connect with physicians from their homes, while virtual visits allow physicians to keep better tabs on chronically ill patients. The end result should be improved patient outcomes and less money out of the pockets of health insurers.</p><p>As for Teladoc's larger losses, these should be a thing of the past. With Livongo's integration costs and stock-based compensation expected to decline significantly in 2022, the company has a pretty clear path to profitability by 2024, if not sooner.</p><p>Furthermore, don't overlook the importance of Teladoc and Livongo being able to cross-sell on each other's platforms. Though the Livongo deal was pricey in hindsight, it's going to fuel sustainable sales growth of 20% to 30% throughout the decade. This makes the nearly 80% retracement in Teladoc's shares since February 2021 an ideal buying opportunity.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F672138%2F5g-wireless-network-circuit-telecom-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Qorvo</h2><p>Another smart stock that's begging to be bought with $300 is semiconductor solutions company <b>Qorvo</b>. Shares have retraced by roughly 35% over the past nine months, which doesn't make much sense given how well Qorvo has been executing.</p><p>There are three core catalysts that should have investors excited about the discount they can nab on Qorvo right now.</p><p>To start with, it should be a prime beneficiary of the 5G wireless revolution. It's been about a decade since wireless download speeds were meaningfully improved. Upgrading 5G wireless infrastructure should encourage a steady device replacement cycle that lasts for years. Qorvo is responsible for providing a variety of connectivity solutions used in next-generation smartphones. Thus, the more smartphones that are manufactured and sold, the more opportunity the company has to get its solutions into 5G-capable devices.</p><p>The second catalyst, which effectively builds on the first, is Qorvo's tight-knit relationship with <b>Apple</b>. Last year, Apple was responsible for approximately 30% of Qorvo's annual sales. There may not be a company in the world with a more loyal customer base than Apple, meaning the 5G-capable iPhone, and its many variations, should continue to drive revenue and profit growth for Qorvo.</p><p>The third upside impetus is the company's ancillary revenue opportunities outside of smartphones. For instance, Qorvo provides advanced antennas that allow next-gen automobiles to connect to the cloud. While these ancillary revenue streams take a back seat to smartphones in terms of total sales, they'll likely be a faster growth opportunity throughout the decade.</p><p>With Qorvo offering low double-digit sales growth and a forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of just 10, it looks to be a perfect blend of growth and value.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F672138%2Fwoman-talk-smartphone-city-wireless-5g-4g-data-voicemail-getty.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>AT&T</h2><p>For you value investors, telecom stock <b>AT&T</b> might just be one of the smartest places to put $300 to work right now. Shares of the widely followed company have retraced by 30% since hitting a 52-week high back in May 2021.</p><p>The big knock against AT&T in recent years has been its lack of growth and the high debt levels that have somewhat constrained its financial flexibility. The good news is AT&T has a way to address both of these concerns in the coming years.</p><p>To echo what was said about Qorvo, AT&T should notably benefit from the ongoing rollout of 5G wireless infrastructure. Even though it'll be costly and time-consuming for AT&T to upgrade its network, faster download speeds will encourage the company's wireless subscribers to use more data. Since data consumption drives the company's juicy wireless margin, it's a no-brainer way to boost its organic growth rate.</p><p>The other significant growth catalyst for AT&T is the coming spin-off of its content arm, WarnerMedia, and the subsequent merging of WarnerMedia with <b>Discovery</b> to create a new media entity. This new company, WarnerMedia-Discovery (no points awarded for originality), should recognize more than $3 billion in annual cost savings and have in the neighborhood of 94 million streaming customers (on a pro forma basis).</p><p>Following the spinoff, AT&T will be focused on debt reduction. Even though its dividend will be slightly more than halved in order to reduce cash outflow and pay down debt, the company will maintain its high-yield status. This superior yield can come in especially handy in a high-inflation environment.</p><p>Compared to Teladoc and Qorvo, AT&T is a turtle on the growth front. But its telecom and media operations are highly profitable and very predictable from a cash flow perspective.

Over the past three months, all three major U.S. indexes have undergone their steepest corrections in two years. In fact, the technology-dependent Nasdaq Composite briefly entered bear market territory.While the velocity of moves lower in the broad-market indexes can, at times, be scary, the key thing to remember is that pullbacks are always an opportunity for patient investors to go on the offensive. That's because every single crash or correction throughout history has eventually been placed into the rearview mirror by a bull market rally.Image source: Getty Images.Just as important, you don't need a mountain of cash to take advantage of these dips in the stock market. Since most online brokerages ditched commission fees and minimum deposit requirements, any amount of money -- even $300 -- can be the perfect amount to invest.If you have $300 at the ready, which won't be needed for bills or to cover emergencies, here are some of the smartest stocks you can buy on the dip.Teladoc HealthThe first beaten-down stock to buy with $300 is the kingpin of telemedicine, Teladoc Health.Skeptics have had two big issues with Teladoc over the past year. To begin with, they believe the company has enjoyed a pandemic-related benefit and its growth will slow dramatically when we exit the pandemic. Second, skeptics are concerned about Teladoc's back-to-back years of larger-than-expected losses following the pricey acquisition of Livongo Health. While I understand where this opposing view is coming from, neither of these headwinds has legs to stand on.Although Teladoc did benefit nicely during the initial stages of the pandemic, investors need to recognize that this shift to virtual visit healthcare platforms began well before 2020. In the six years leading up to the pandemic, Teladoc's sales grew by an average annual rate of 74%! That's not a fluke. It's a sign that the way personalized care is administered in the U.S. is changing.Telehealth is a win for all parties up and down the healthcare treatment chain. It's often more convenient for patients to connect with physicians from their homes, while virtual visits allow physicians to keep better tabs on chronically ill patients. The end result should be improved patient outcomes and less money out of the pockets of health insurers.As for Teladoc's larger losses, these should be a thing of the past. With Livongo's integration costs and stock-based compensation expected to decline significantly in 2022, the company has a pretty clear path to profitability by 2024, if not sooner.Furthermore, don't overlook the importance of Teladoc and Livongo being able to cross-sell on each other's platforms. Though the Livongo deal was pricey in hindsight, it's going to fuel sustainable sales growth of 20% to 30% throughout the decade. This makes the nearly 80% retracement in Teladoc's shares since February 2021 an ideal buying opportunity.Image source: Getty Images.QorvoAnother smart stock that's begging to be bought with $300 is semiconductor solutions company Qorvo. Shares have retraced by roughly 35% over the past nine months, which doesn't make much sense given how well Qorvo has been executing.There are three core catalysts that should have investors excited about the discount they can nab on Qorvo right now.To start with, it should be a prime beneficiary of the 5G wireless revolution. It's been about a decade since wireless download speeds were meaningfully improved. Upgrading 5G wireless infrastructure should encourage a steady device replacement cycle that lasts for years. Qorvo is responsible for providing a variety of connectivity solutions used in next-generation smartphones. Thus, the more smartphones that are manufactured and sold, the more opportunity the company has to get its solutions into 5G-capable devices.The second catalyst, which effectively builds on the first, is Qorvo's tight-knit relationship with Apple. Last year, Apple was responsible for approximately 30% of Qorvo's annual sales. There may not be a company in the world with a more loyal customer base than Apple, meaning the 5G-capable iPhone, and its many variations, should continue to drive revenue and profit growth for Qorvo.The third upside impetus is the company's ancillary revenue opportunities outside of smartphones. For instance, Qorvo provides advanced antennas that allow next-gen automobiles to connect to the cloud. While these ancillary revenue streams take a back seat to smartphones in terms of total sales, they'll likely be a faster growth opportunity throughout the decade.With Qorvo offering low double-digit sales growth and a forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of just 10, it looks to be a perfect blend of growth and value.Image source: Getty Images.AT&TFor you value investors, telecom stock AT&T might just be one of the smartest places to put $300 to work right now. Shares of the widely followed company have retraced by 30% since hitting a 52-week high back in May 2021.The big knock against AT&T in recent years has been its lack of growth and the high debt levels that have somewhat constrained its financial flexibility. The good news is AT&T has a way to address both of these concerns in the coming years.To echo what was said about Qorvo, AT&T should notably benefit from the ongoing rollout of 5G wireless infrastructure. Even though it'll be costly and time-consuming for AT&T to upgrade its network, faster download speeds will encourage the company's wireless subscribers to use more data. Since data consumption drives the company's juicy wireless margin, it's a no-brainer way to boost its organic growth rate.The other significant growth catalyst for AT&T is the coming spin-off of its content arm, WarnerMedia, and the subsequent merging of WarnerMedia with Discovery to create a new media entity. This new company, WarnerMedia-Discovery (no points awarded for originality), should recognize more than $3 billion in annual cost savings and have in the neighborhood of 94 million streaming customers (on a pro forma basis).Following the spinoff, AT&T will be focused on debt reduction. Even though its dividend will be slightly more than halved in order to reduce cash outflow and pay down debt, the company will maintain its high-yield status. This superior yield can come in especially handy in a high-inflation environment.Compared to Teladoc and Qorvo, AT&T is a turtle on the growth front. But its telecom and media operations are highly profitable and very predictable from a cash flow perspective. This makes AT&T's shares an absolute steal at less than 8 times forecast earnings for 2022.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9031335139,"gmtCreate":1646441595251,"gmtModify":1676534129620,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sea really sinking deeper into bottom of the sea?

Investors are scrambling for stock ideas to avoid missing out on what many are suggesting will be a huge trend.</p><p>While much about the metaverse is speculative right now and lots of new companies are coming to market with their ideas for capitalizing on it, investors do not have to buy in on unknown or unproven startups to benefit from the tailwind. There are well-established companies that investors can bet on to ride the metaverse story.</p><p>Let's explore two of these metaverse stocks that might just be worth buying and holding for the next decade of development.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a>: The social media-turned-metaverse contender</h2><p><b>Meta Platforms</b> (NASDAQ:FB), formerly known as Facebook, has been a social media platform for most of its existence. With more than 3 billion monthly active users, Meta is used by almost half of the global population who access at least <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of its family of apps -- Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp.</p><p>While its social media apps generate most of the revenue -- with income mainly from advertising -- Meta made a strategic move last year to pivot the company's focus toward the metaverse. In this new frontier, Meta aims to help users maintain a feeling of physical presence, beyond just text and video, when connecting with anyone, anywhere.</p><p>For example, today, we video call our family members who live in another location using Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, or another video streaming program. But in the metaverse world, we can put on our VR headsets and be together with our family members in a virtual space. The experience will be similar to watching <i>Avatar</i> in a 3D cinema. The difference is that we can interact with the virtual avatars of our family members. Or imagine a world where we can attend any live concert, globally, without leaving the comfort of our homes. All we need is to put on Meta's Oculus headset and our favorite artists appear in front of us (at least virtually). And while we are at the concert, we can make purchases in a virtual marketplace and the products we buy can be virtual as well (like dressing our avatar in a concert T-shirt) or real (like buying an actual concert T-shirt) and the products are then shipped to our homes. These are just some early and basic examples of what we can experience in a metaverse.</p><p>So what is Meta's role in this gigantic shift? To start, the company wants to help develop the core technologies -- like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) -- as well as the social platforms that will bring the metaverse to life. It will also focus on building a more inclusive community, ensuring that privacy and safety, open standards, and the appropriate governance are all there from the start.</p><p>While all these sound good and exciting, investors should note that the metaverse will take years, if not decades, to become mainstream. Along the way, Meta will need to invest heavily in technology, talent, and partnerships to pull this off. It helps that the tech company has an advertising business that generates billions in profit annually, billions of active users, thousands of world-class talents (developers), and a visionary founder who has significant skin in the game.</p><p>With these ingredients in place, Meta can take a long-term approach toward building its metaverse business.</p><h2>2. Tencent Holdings: The leading technology conglomerate in China</h2><p><b>Tencent Holdings</b> (OTC:TCEHY) is one of the most valuable companies in China thanks to its wide-ranging business activities. It is the leading Chinese company in online games, social media, mobile messaging, fintech, and more. Think of it as the combination of Meta, <b>Activision Blizzard</b>, and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a> Holdings</b>. Besides its fully owned businesses, Tencent is also an investor in some of the best companies globally, including <b>Meituan</b>, <b>Pinduoduo</b>, <b>Sea Limited</b>,<b> Spotify Technology</b>, and<b> Snap</b>, just to mention a few.</p><p>Unlike Meta, which has shifted its whole company to focus on metaverse, Tencent has yet to make such a major change to its business model. Nevertheless, the latter's exposure to the metaverse is in no way less significant.</p><p>To start, Tencent is already an active participant in metaverse via its exposure to video games. As the largest gaming company in China, the company is well-positioned to take the next step of making its games more interactive and immersive. To this end, Tencent has all the resources -- cash, developers, and users -- to pivot its gaming business toward that direction.</p><p>Besides, it has exposure to other leading gaming companies -- such as Epic Games and <b>Roblox</b> -- to help it ride the metaverse trend.

Investors are scrambling for stock ideas to avoid missing out on what many are suggesting will be a huge trend.While much about the metaverse is speculative right now and lots of new companies are coming to market with their ideas for capitalizing on it, investors do not have to buy in on unknown or unproven startups to benefit from the tailwind. There are well-established companies that investors can bet on to ride the metaverse story.Let's explore two of these metaverse stocks that might just be worth buying and holding for the next decade of development.1. Meta Platforms: The social media-turned-metaverse contenderMeta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB), formerly known as Facebook, has been a social media platform for most of its existence. With more than 3 billion monthly active users, Meta is used by almost half of the global population who access at least one of its family of apps -- Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp.While its social media apps generate most of the revenue -- with income mainly from advertising -- Meta made a strategic move last year to pivot the company's focus toward the metaverse. In this new frontier, Meta aims to help users maintain a feeling of physical presence, beyond just text and video, when connecting with anyone, anywhere.For example, today, we video call our family members who live in another location using Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, or another video streaming program. But in the metaverse world, we can put on our VR headsets and be together with our family members in a virtual space. The experience will be similar to watching Avatar in a 3D cinema. The difference is that we can interact with the virtual avatars of our family members. Or imagine a world where we can attend any live concert, globally, without leaving the comfort of our homes. All we need is to put on Meta's Oculus headset and our favorite artists appear in front of us (at least virtually). And while we are at the concert, we can make purchases in a virtual marketplace and the products we buy can be virtual as well (like dressing our avatar in a concert T-shirt) or real (like buying an actual concert T-shirt) and the products are then shipped to our homes. These are just some early and basic examples of what we can experience in a metaverse.So what is Meta's role in this gigantic shift? To start, the company wants to help develop the core technologies -- like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) -- as well as the social platforms that will bring the metaverse to life. It will also focus on building a more inclusive community, ensuring that privacy and safety, open standards, and the appropriate governance are all there from the start.While all these sound good and exciting, investors should note that the metaverse will take years, if not decades, to become mainstream. Along the way, Meta will need to invest heavily in technology, talent, and partnerships to pull this off. It helps that the tech company has an advertising business that generates billions in profit annually, billions of active users, thousands of world-class talents (developers), and a visionary founder who has significant skin in the game.With these ingredients in place, Meta can take a long-term approach toward building its metaverse business.2. Tencent Holdings: The leading technology conglomerate in ChinaTencent Holdings (OTC:TCEHY) is one of the most valuable companies in China thanks to its wide-ranging business activities. It is the leading Chinese company in online games, social media, mobile messaging, fintech, and more. Think of it as the combination of Meta, Activision Blizzard, and PayPal Holdings. Besides its fully owned businesses, Tencent is also an investor in some of the best companies globally, including Meituan, Pinduoduo, Sea Limited, Spotify Technology, and Snap, just to mention a few.Unlike Meta, which has shifted its whole company to focus on metaverse, Tencent has yet to make such a major change to its business model. Nevertheless, the latter's exposure to the metaverse is in no way less significant.To start, Tencent is already an active participant in metaverse via its exposure to video games. As the largest gaming company in China, the company is well-positioned to take the next step of making its games more interactive and immersive. To this end, Tencent has all the resources -- cash, developers, and users -- to pivot its gaming business toward that direction.Besides, it has exposure to other leading gaming companies -- such as Epic Games and Roblox -- to help it ride the metaverse trend. For example, Tencent and Roblox have a joint venture that will distribute Roblox's content in China. In other words, Tencent will benefit directly (from accessing Roblox's content) and indirectly (from watching and learning Roblox's moves) so long as it maintains its partnership with Roblox.On top of that, Tencent has recently acquired Chinese gaming-focused specialty smartphone maker Black Shark as a move into the AR/VR hardware business. This move completes the puzzle within Tencent's metaverse plan since the company already has all the necessary pieces through its wide-ranging businesses.In short, investors looking to ride the metaverse tailwind can keep Tencent on their radar.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9007260251,"gmtCreate":1642906777252,"gmtModify":1676533756750,"author":{"id":"4089527924629590","authorId":"4089527924629590","name":"HengHuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5854d1323f59ffe9e66dca6d58fd6af8","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089527924629590","authorIdStr":"4089527924629590"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What the hell ","listText":"What the hell ","text":"What the hell","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9007260251","repostId":"1121262678","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121262678","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1642776856,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121262678?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-21 22:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Blockchain Stocks Plunged in Morning Trading with Coinbase Stock Tumbled over 12%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121262678","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Blockchain stocks dropped in moring trading with Coinbase stock tumbled over 12%.

After taking the helm at Microsoft in 2014, CEO Satya Nadella set the tech giant on a fresh course by expanding its cloud-based services while reducing its dependence on desktop software. Microsoft developed more mobile apps for iOS and Android, launched new Surface devices, expanded its Xbox gaming business, and abandoned its struggling Windows Phone platform.</p><p>Apple stagnated for years before Steve Jobs returned as its CEO in 1997. Jobs' tenure -- which lasted until his death in 2011 -- disrupted the PC, digital media player, smartphone, and tablet markets with the iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Jobs' successor, Tim Cook, continued to expand Apple's hardware business with the Apple Watch, AirPods, and HomePod, all while expanding its sticky services ecosystem with Apple Pay, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and other new services.</p><p>Microsoft and Apple have generated massive gains for investors who believed in those transformations. Microsoft's stock has rallied about 570% since Nadella's first day. Meanwhile, Apple's stock has skyrocketed 78,770% since Jobs' return to the CEO post.</p><p>Both tech giants' market caps blew past the $1 trillion mark over the past few years. Microsoft's valuation eclipsed Apple's numerous times during that ascent, but Apple's current market capitalization of $2.5 trillion now puts it comfortably ahead of Microsoft's valuation of $1.8 trillion. Could Microsoft catch up to Apple again within the next three years?</p><h2>The key differences between Microsoft and Apple</h2><p>Microsoft generates most of its revenue from its software and cloud-based services, while Apple makes most of its money by selling hardware. At Microsoft, the main metric to watch is its cloud revenue, which grew 32% to $91 billion, or 46% of its top line, in fiscal 2022 (which ended in June). This segment houses Office 365, Dynamics, and Azure -- the world's second-largest cloud infrastructure platform after <b>Amazon </b>Web Services (AWS). Recently it has managed to offset the slower growth of its desktop-based software and Windows licenses.</p><p>As for Apple, most investors track its sales of iPhones, which generated 54% of its revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 (which ended in June). They also closely follow its services revenue, which accounted for 19% of its top line during that period and reached over 860 million paid subscriptions at the end of the third quarter. The bulls believe the growth of that services ecosystem will lock users into Apple's walled garden and gradually reduce its dependence on the iPhone.</p><h2>Which company has been growing faster?</h2><p>Microsoft's business is more diversified than Apple's. Its Surface and Xbox businesses are cyclical, but those two hardware divisions are much smaller than its core software and cloud-based service segments. Meanwhile, Apple's growth still relies heavily on rigid hardware upgrade cycles, which have gradually lengthened with each generation of faster devices. It's also more heavily exposed to chip shortages, supply chain disruptions, tariffs, and rising labor costs than Microsoft.</p><p>That's why analysts expect Microsoft's revenue to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% from fiscal 2022 to 2025, while they only expect Apple's revenue to increase at a CAGR of 5% from fiscal 2021 to 2024. They also expect Microsoft's earnings per share (EPS) to grow at a CAGR of 13% during that period. On the other hand, they expect Apple's EPS to rise at a CAGR of 7%.</p><p>We should take those estimates with a grain of salt, since they probably don't factor in Microsoft's plans to aggressively expand its gaming business with more acquisitions or Apple's long-rumored AR and VR devices. However, they clearly suggest that Microsoft's cloud business will continue to flourish as Apple's hardware sales cool off again.</p><h2>Microsoft could easily catch up to Apple again</h2><p>Based on those expectations, Microsoft's stock should trade at a premium to Apple's stock.

After taking the helm at Microsoft in 2014, CEO Satya Nadella set the tech giant on a fresh course by expanding its cloud-based services while reducing its dependence on desktop software. Microsoft developed more mobile apps for iOS and Android, launched new Surface devices, expanded its Xbox gaming business, and abandoned its struggling Windows Phone platform.Apple stagnated for years before Steve Jobs returned as its CEO in 1997. Jobs' tenure -- which lasted until his death in 2011 -- disrupted the PC, digital media player, smartphone, and tablet markets with the iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Jobs' successor, Tim Cook, continued to expand Apple's hardware business with the Apple Watch, AirPods, and HomePod, all while expanding its sticky services ecosystem with Apple Pay, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and other new services.Microsoft and Apple have generated massive gains for investors who believed in those transformations. Microsoft's stock has rallied about 570% since Nadella's first day. Meanwhile, Apple's stock has skyrocketed 78,770% since Jobs' return to the CEO post.Both tech giants' market caps blew past the $1 trillion mark over the past few years. Microsoft's valuation eclipsed Apple's numerous times during that ascent, but Apple's current market capitalization of $2.5 trillion now puts it comfortably ahead of Microsoft's valuation of $1.8 trillion. Could Microsoft catch up to Apple again within the next three years?The key differences between Microsoft and AppleMicrosoft generates most of its revenue from its software and cloud-based services, while Apple makes most of its money by selling hardware. At Microsoft, the main metric to watch is its cloud revenue, which grew 32% to $91 billion, or 46% of its top line, in fiscal 2022 (which ended in June). This segment houses Office 365, Dynamics, and Azure -- the world's second-largest cloud infrastructure platform after Amazon Web Services (AWS). Recently it has managed to offset the slower growth of its desktop-based software and Windows licenses.As for Apple, most investors track its sales of iPhones, which generated 54% of its revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 (which ended in June). They also closely follow its services revenue, which accounted for 19% of its top line during that period and reached over 860 million paid subscriptions at the end of the third quarter. The bulls believe the growth of that services ecosystem will lock users into Apple's walled garden and gradually reduce its dependence on the iPhone.Which company has been growing faster?Microsoft's business is more diversified than Apple's. Its Surface and Xbox businesses are cyclical, but those two hardware divisions are much smaller than its core software and cloud-based service segments. Meanwhile, Apple's growth still relies heavily on rigid hardware upgrade cycles, which have gradually lengthened with each generation of faster devices. It's also more heavily exposed to chip shortages, supply chain disruptions, tariffs, and rising labor costs than Microsoft.That's why analysts expect Microsoft's revenue to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% from fiscal 2022 to 2025, while they only expect Apple's revenue to increase at a CAGR of 5% from fiscal 2021 to 2024. They also expect Microsoft's earnings per share (EPS) to grow at a CAGR of 13% during that period. On the other hand, they expect Apple's EPS to rise at a CAGR of 7%.We should take those estimates with a grain of salt, since they probably don't factor in Microsoft's plans to aggressively expand its gaming business with more acquisitions or Apple's long-rumored AR and VR devices. However, they clearly suggest that Microsoft's cloud business will continue to flourish as Apple's hardware sales cool off again.Microsoft could easily catch up to Apple againBased on those expectations, Microsoft's stock should trade at a premium to Apple's stock. However, Microsoft trades at 25 times forward earnings, while Apple has a slightly pricier forward price-to-earnings ratio of 26x.We could argue that both stocks' valuations have been inflated by the flight toward safer blue-chip tech stocks during the ongoing bear market, but investors also seem to be pricing a lot of Apple's rumored products -- including AR gadgets and driverless cars -- into its stock price. Therefore, Apple's stock arguably deserves to trade at a lower multiple than Microsoft.
