Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.</p><p>Options are generally divided into "call" and "put" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to <i>buy</i> the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to <i>sell</i> the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.</p><p>Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.</p><p><b>Buying Calls (Long Calls)</b></p><p>There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are "bullish" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit risk</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising prices</li></ul><p>Options are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.</p><p><b>Tip: </b>A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.</p><p>Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>The trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed43525aed99dba37e990ddd8a9e733b\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Buying Puts (Long Puts)</b></p><p>If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right to<i>sell</i>the underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategy</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling prices</li></ul><p>A put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Say that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong.

It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:</p><ul><li>Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premium</li><li>Are willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protection</li></ul><p>A covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.</p><p>If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or "called away"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).</p><p>However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/060c4075ba84fa8406865044327bb21a\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Protective Puts</b></p><p>A protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.</p><p>Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.</p><p>If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>The trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b1cae54dd9829363240190149f81ae7\" tg-width=\"884\" tg-height=\"487\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).</p><p><b>Long Straddles</b></p><p>Buying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.</p><p>Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Consider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.</p><p>The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>A long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it. Since it involves two options, however, it will cost more than either a call or put by itself. The maximum reward is theoretically unlimited to the upside and is bounded to the downside by the strike price (e.g., if you own a $20 straddle and the stock price goes to zero, you would make a max. of $20).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/99417c09afae347175e4c7c0a2b17fcd\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Some Basic Other Options Strategies</b></p><p>The strategies outlined here are straightforward and can be employed by most novice traders or investors. There are, however, more nuanced strategies than simply buying calls or puts. While we discuss many of these types of strategies elsewhere, here is just a brief list of some other basic options positions that would be suitable for those comfortable with the ones discussed above:</p><ul><li><b>Married put strategy:</b> Similar to a protective put, themarried putinvolves buying anat-the-money (ATM)put option in an amount to cover an existing long position in the stock.

They will have the same expiration date, but they have different strike prices: The put strike price should be below the call strike price. This involves a lower outlay of premium than a straddle but also requires the stock to move either higher to the upside or lower to the downside in order to be profitable.</li><li><b>Vertical Spreads</b>: A vertical spread involves the simultaneous buying and selling of options of the same type (i.e., either puts or calls) and expiry, but at different strike prices. These can be constructed as either bull or bear spreads, which will profit when the market rises or falls, respectively. Spreads are less costly that a long call or long put since you are also receiving the options premium from the one you sold. However, this also limits your potential upside to the width between the strikes.</li></ul><p><b>Advantages and Disadvantages of Trading Options</b></p><p>The biggest advantage to buying options is that you have great upside potential with losses limited only to the option's premium. However, this can also be a drawback since options will expire worthless if the stock does not move enough to be in-the-money. This means that buying a lot of out-of-the-money options can be costly.</p><p>Options can be very useful as a source of leverage and risk hedging. For example, a bullish investor who wishes to invest $1,000 in a company could potentially earn a far greater return by purchasing $1,000 worth of call options on that firm, as compared to buying $1,000 of that company’s shares. In this sense, the call options provide the investor with a way to leverage their position by increasing their buying power. On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.</p><p>The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions. Failing to do so can lead to devastating losses.</p><p>There is also a large risk selling options in that you take on theoretically unlimited risk with profits limited to the premium (price) received for the option.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606203311635","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>Options Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners</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\">\nOptions Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-15 15:03 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp><strong>Investopedia</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".DJI":"道琼斯",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index"},"source_url":"https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1118303564","content_text":"KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their downside and hedge market risk.Here we look at four such strategies: long calls, long puts, covered calls, protective puts, and straddles.Options trading can be complex, so be sure to understand the risks and rewards involved before diving in.Options are a form of derivative contract that gives buyers of the contracts (the option holders) the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell a security at a chosen price at some point in the future. Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.Options are generally divided into \"call\" and \"put\" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to buy the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to sell the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.Buying Calls (Long Calls)There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:Are \"bullish\" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit riskWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising pricesOptions are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.Tip: A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.ExampleSuppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.Risk/rewardThe trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Buying Puts (Long Puts)If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right tosellthe underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategyWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling pricesA put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.ExampleSay that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong. Instead, you can buy the $50 put for a premium of $2.00. If the stock does not fall below $50, or if indeed it rises, the most you will lose is the $2.00 premium.However, if you are right and the stock drops all the way to $45, you would make $3 ($50 minus $45. less the $2 premium).Risk/rewardThe potential loss on a long put is limited to the premium paid for the options. The maximum profit from the position is capped because the underlying price cannot drop below zero, but as with a long call option, the put option leverages the trader's return.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Covered CallsUnlike the long call or long put, a covered call is a strategy that is overlaid onto an existing long position in the underlying asset. It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premiumAre willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protectionA covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.ExampleSuppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or \"called away\"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.Risk/rewardIf the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Protective PutsA protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.ExampleThe trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.Risk/rewardIf the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).Long StraddlesBuying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.ExampleConsider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.Risk/rewardA long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it.

On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions. Failing to do so can lead to devastating losses.There is also a large risk selling options in that you take on theoretically unlimited risk with profits limited to the premium (price) received for the option.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":671,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9908191004,"gmtCreate":1659331304308,"gmtModify":1676536288524,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9908191004","repostId":"2255503574","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2255503574","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1659321761,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2255503574?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-01 10:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"1 Reason to Get Excited About Stock Splits and 1 Reason to Be Cautious","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2255503574","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Companies often undergo stock splits after periods of notable success boost their share prices.

What we're seeing is a shifting narrative where the major macro headwinds from the first half of the year arebeing left behind with stocks starting to price in improving conditions. The news flash is that the doom-and-gloomers with a pocalyptic calls for a depression-style crash may end up being wrong. The momentum in stocks right now is real and our message here is that we expect more upside.</p><p><b>A Technical Recession Is No Problem</b></p><p>Inflation has been hot, interest rates are higher, and the latest Q2 GDP data confirmed a technical recession. That being said, the overall economy appears relatively stable or resilient with room to emerge out of this rough patch. The bigger point here is that Q2 is history with an understanding that stocks are forward-looking. From a macro perspective, the scenario we see playing out is the soft landing.</p><p>Briefly, our take on the 0.9% decline in the Q2 GDP is to keep in mind that the economy was historically strong in 2021, growing by a massive 5.7%, in part fueled by the record stimulus last year. The result left both a tough comparison base and added a layer of volatility beyond the headline-making supply chain disruptions and geopolitical issues that defined the quarter. What's more positive is the real growth on a 2- and 3-year stacked basis from pre-pandemic levels. It's also encouraging that the quarter-over-quarter decline narrowed compared to the Q1 trend.</p><p>Other data has been more positive including the low unemployment rate and latest retail sales. In our view, the U.S. consumer as a group has been bruised, but otherwise alive and well.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f471219423737fa34aa6d51422e1f5a0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"334\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: tradingeconomics</span></p><p><b>Peak Inflation and Peak Fed Hawkishness</b></p><p>All indications are that inflation will begin to trend lower which removes one of the main culprits of the recent economic weakness. From there, the latest Fed rate hike likely marked "peak hawkishness" by removing the urgency to get more and more aggressive at future meetings. Inflation, as it relates to a near double-digit annual rate, may very well end up being transitory if we're allowed to un-retire that word.</p><p>The most positive indication is the sharp drop in gas prices which will directly hit the CPI over the next few months. According to data from "GasBuddy", the national average for gas prices in the U.S. is down 78 cents from its peak in mid-June and forecast to drop under $4.00 per gallon over the next few weeks. Consumers are spending less on gas today than last month which means more money for other stuff.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d90d4f10e471f95a70656feacfb33d65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: Twitter</span></p><p>Companies complainingabout high costs are set to get some breathing room. Most commodities are down 10-20% or more from their highs. Furthermore, we can highlight that reports of major retailers moving to discount merchandise to deal with a glut of inventory will also help cool inflation on the goods side. This is important because it plays into both a potential rebound of consumer sentiment and improved economic activity into 2023.</p><p>Investors need to start looking ahead toward the July CPI data release on August 10th. It's not a stretch to imagine that a cold inflation rate print that day will be read positively and can work as a catalyst for the next leg higher in stocks. The Fed may come into September FOMC with some swagger based on evidence their strategy is working. Call it effective execution, good timing, or just dumb luck; but a combination of inflation expectations trending lower while leading economic indicators rebound higher is a strong setup for risk assets. That's why we're bullish.</p><p><b>The Earnings That Really Matter</b></p><p>With Q2 earnings season in full swing, what we're seeing is that the companies that matter, being the mega-cap leaders, are proving capable of effectively navigating the current environment. The bullish case for the S&P 500 got a lift this week with Amazon.com (AMZN) and Apple Inc. (AAPL) both beating estimates adding some confidence to both economic conditions and the market earnings trajectory.</p><p>The reports from other high-profile names like Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) were also positive. Notably, these stocks are among the largest constituents of the S&P 500 which makes the index hard to bet against. At the end of the day, earnings growth is the most important driver for stock market performance.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a81fd6f1229142dc7dfd044c031387a7\" tg-width=\"602\" tg-height=\"586\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>One of the most controversial data points right now is the outlook for S&P 500 earnings to climb 10% this year to $229.14. Any bearish case for stocks essentially needs that number to be wrong and drastically underperform expectations, maybe from a collapse in the economy. It hasn't happened thus far and we don't think it will. The Q2 earnings season is helping to reaffirm the S&P 500 bottom-up EPS estimates.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/166116ac51259509bf3bf659acda1ae5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: FactSet Research Systems</span></p><p>The other side to the earnings trend is the impact on valuations. The chart below makes it clear that the market is cheap considering earnings are climbing even as stock prices are down from their peak. With the S&P 500 currently trading at around the index level of 4100, the implied 12-month market forward P/E is 17x, which is below the 5-year average of 18.5x, around 9% higher. The upside here should consider that as macro conditions improve, earnings estimates have room to be revised even higher, making stocks appear even more attractive. A dynamic of multiples expansion can take hold.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/700439f883ca2e0ab354c8bb6b980324\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: FactSet</span></p><p><b>Behavioral Biases Are Dangerous</b></p><p>Putting it all together, we attempted to show that some of the biggest storm clouds are passing and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Anyone with a short position on stocks or even sitting on the sidelines is likely sweating amid the rally in recent weeks.</p><p>We sense that a large segment of the market is falling for a couple of textbook behavioral biases related to cognitive dissonance. The main concept here is the trap of getting too emotionally attached to the bearish (or bullish) case in stocks for any number of reasons.</p><p>In truth, the allure of being a market bear is tempting. There is just something extra gratifying about shorting a stock and making money while the big wigs on Wall Street have a buy rating. Doom and gloom commentary against the grain always seems to come off as extra smart. Similarly, it's fair to say that the current political environment is conducive to keeping a cynical view on things. A call against the market may seem like a referendum against the status quo or even a judgment on global Central Banking orthodoxy. It's understandable, we get it, but it doesn't work like that. The market doesn't care about opinions and keeping an open mind is the way to go.</p><p>It's important to incorporate new information to make more objective decisions to overcome what's known as conservatism bias. Bears may also be expressing some confirmation bias by only valuing the data points that help reaffirm their pessimistic outlook. The headline of Q2 GDP decline may have fed into a view that the economy is falling apart and stocks will crash lower, but what we say was the S&P 500 surged by over 1% on the report.</p><p><b>What's Next?</b></p><p>The next test for the S&P 500 will be at the index level of 4,200 corresponding to around $420 in the SPY ETF. Let's go. We then see SPX retesting 4,500 which is a level it last traded at in mid-April. On the downside, 4,000 is the first level of support while a break under 3,800 or $380 in SPY would be indicative of a more serious deterioration.</p><p>On that point, it's always worth covering some of the risks. We can bring up the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which still has the potential to escalate, would force a reassessment of global stability. Energy prices are also a key monitoring point. Significantly higher oil and gas prices could kickstart a new round of inflation which would undermine the bullish case for equities.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2f1785b169a249f7f1d138140fde7d84\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"308\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>The way we see it playing out is that the market narrative will take some time to change. Some don't want to believe it. People are still talking about high gas prices and record inflation.

What we're seeing is a shifting narrative where the major macro headwinds from the first half of the year arebeing left behind with stocks starting to price in improving conditions. The news flash is that the doom-and-gloomers with a pocalyptic calls for a depression-style crash may end up being wrong. The momentum in stocks right now is real and our message here is that we expect more upside.A Technical Recession Is No ProblemInflation has been hot, interest rates are higher, and the latest Q2 GDP data confirmed a technical recession. That being said, the overall economy appears relatively stable or resilient with room to emerge out of this rough patch. The bigger point here is that Q2 is history with an understanding that stocks are forward-looking. From a macro perspective, the scenario we see playing out is the soft landing.Briefly, our take on the 0.9% decline in the Q2 GDP is to keep in mind that the economy was historically strong in 2021, growing by a massive 5.7%, in part fueled by the record stimulus last year. The result left both a tough comparison base and added a layer of volatility beyond the headline-making supply chain disruptions and geopolitical issues that defined the quarter. What's more positive is the real growth on a 2- and 3-year stacked basis from pre-pandemic levels. It's also encouraging that the quarter-over-quarter decline narrowed compared to the Q1 trend.Other data has been more positive including the low unemployment rate and latest retail sales. In our view, the U.S. consumer as a group has been bruised, but otherwise alive and well.source: tradingeconomicsPeak Inflation and Peak Fed HawkishnessAll indications are that inflation will begin to trend lower which removes one of the main culprits of the recent economic weakness. From there, the latest Fed rate hike likely marked \"peak hawkishness\" by removing the urgency to get more and more aggressive at future meetings. Inflation, as it relates to a near double-digit annual rate, may very well end up being transitory if we're allowed to un-retire that word.The most positive indication is the sharp drop in gas prices which will directly hit the CPI over the next few months. According to data from \"GasBuddy\", the national average for gas prices in the U.S. is down 78 cents from its peak in mid-June and forecast to drop under $4.00 per gallon over the next few weeks. Consumers are spending less on gas today than last month which means more money for other stuff.source: TwitterCompanies complainingabout high costs are set to get some breathing room. Most commodities are down 10-20% or more from their highs. Furthermore, we can highlight that reports of major retailers moving to discount merchandise to deal with a glut of inventory will also help cool inflation on the goods side. This is important because it plays into both a potential rebound of consumer sentiment and improved economic activity into 2023.Investors need to start looking ahead toward the July CPI data release on August 10th. It's not a stretch to imagine that a cold inflation rate print that day will be read positively and can work as a catalyst for the next leg higher in stocks. The Fed may come into September FOMC with some swagger based on evidence their strategy is working. Call it effective execution, good timing, or just dumb luck; but a combination of inflation expectations trending lower while leading economic indicators rebound higher is a strong setup for risk assets. That's why we're bullish.The Earnings That Really MatterWith Q2 earnings season in full swing, what we're seeing is that the companies that matter, being the mega-cap leaders, are proving capable of effectively navigating the current environment. The bullish case for the S&P 500 got a lift this week with Amazon.com (AMZN) and Apple Inc. (AAPL) both beating estimates adding some confidence to both economic conditions and the market earnings trajectory.The reports from other high-profile names like Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) were also positive. Notably, these stocks are among the largest constituents of the S&P 500 which makes the index hard to bet against. At the end of the day, earnings growth is the most important driver for stock market performance.Seeking AlphaOne of the most controversial data points right now is the outlook for S&P 500 earnings to climb 10% this year to $229.14. Any bearish case for stocks essentially needs that number to be wrong and drastically underperform expectations, maybe from a collapse in the economy. It hasn't happened thus far and we don't think it will. The Q2 earnings season is helping to reaffirm the S&P 500 bottom-up EPS estimates.source: FactSet Research SystemsThe other side to the earnings trend is the impact on valuations. The chart below makes it clear that the market is cheap considering earnings are climbing even as stock prices are down from their peak. With the S&P 500 currently trading at around the index level of 4100, the implied 12-month market forward P/E is 17x, which is below the 5-year average of 18.5x, around 9% higher. The upside here should consider that as macro conditions improve, earnings estimates have room to be revised even higher, making stocks appear even more attractive. A dynamic of multiples expansion can take hold.source: FactSetBehavioral Biases Are DangerousPutting it all together, we attempted to show that some of the biggest storm clouds are passing and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Anyone with a short position on stocks or even sitting on the sidelines is likely sweating amid the rally in recent weeks.We sense that a large segment of the market is falling for a couple of textbook behavioral biases related to cognitive dissonance. The main concept here is the trap of getting too emotionally attached to the bearish (or bullish) case in stocks for any number of reasons.In truth, the allure of being a market bear is tempting. There is just something extra gratifying about shorting a stock and making money while the big wigs on Wall Street have a buy rating. Doom and gloom commentary against the grain always seems to come off as extra smart. Similarly, it's fair to say that the current political environment is conducive to keeping a cynical view on things. A call against the market may seem like a referendum against the status quo or even a judgment on global Central Banking orthodoxy. It's understandable, we get it, but it doesn't work like that. The market doesn't care about opinions and keeping an open mind is the way to go.It's important to incorporate new information to make more objective decisions to overcome what's known as conservatism bias. Bears may also be expressing some confirmation bias by only valuing the data points that help reaffirm their pessimistic outlook. The headline of Q2 GDP decline may have fed into a view that the economy is falling apart and stocks will crash lower, but what we say was the S&P 500 surged by over 1% on the report.What's Next?The next test for the S&P 500 will be at the index level of 4,200 corresponding to around $420 in the SPY ETF. Let's go. We then see SPX retesting 4,500 which is a level it last traded at in mid-April. On the downside, 4,000 is the first level of support while a break under 3,800 or $380 in SPY would be indicative of a more serious deterioration.On that point, it's always worth covering some of the risks. We can bring up the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which still has the potential to escalate, would force a reassessment of global stability. Energy prices are also a key monitoring point. Significantly higher oil and gas prices could kickstart a new round of inflation which would undermine the bullish case for equities.Seeking AlphaThe way we see it playing out is that the market narrative will take some time to change. Some don't want to believe it. People are still talking about high gas prices and record inflation. The Q2 GDP print and big recession word is the headline de jour.Fast forward, the door for economic data to come in better than expected over the next few months sets the stage for a new theme of recovery and stronger sentiment. If stocks continue to trend higher, the action will evolve into a fear of missing out for anyone on the sidelines while shorts rush to cover. The momentum can accelerate. Bears were winners to start 2022 but may ultimately be left just holding a participation trophy.This article was written by BOOX Research","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":549,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9909424665,"gmtCreate":1658910699557,"gmtModify":1676536227787,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9909424665","repostId":"1118051421","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118051421","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":1658909342,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118051421?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-27 16:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alphabet Shares Jumped 4.57% as Search Ads Topping Wall Street Targets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118051421","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Alphabet shares jumped 4.57% as search ads topping wall street targets.Google parent Alphabet Inc on","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Alphabet shares jumped 4.57% as search ads topping wall street targets.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1273be77f6d088994f6cf06f49db3cd\" tg-width=\"845\" tg-height=\"824\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Google parent Alphabet Inc on Tuesday posted quarterly sales close to Wall Street targets, sending shares up on relief that the world's biggest seller of online advertising had avoided the deep disappointment of rivals including Snap.</p><p>Sales from Google's search ad business actually topped expectations, while revenue from YouTube ads, cloud computing and Alphabet's "other bets" unit all came in lower than anticipated, according to data from FactSet and Refinitiv.</p><p>Alphabet reported Q2 EPS of $1.21, $0.07 worse than the analyst estimate of $1.28. </p><p>Revenue for the quarter came in at $69.69 billion versus the consensus estimate of $70.04 billion.</p><p></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

VIX is a real-time index that represents the market expectation for near-term volatility in the S&P500 index.Investors and traders have long used VIX as a measure of the level of risk, fear or stress in the market.The iPath S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX) is a volatility exchange traded note (ETF) and behaves differently to a regular ETF. VXX typically sees large price increase when the S&P500 tanks. However, most of the time it slowly but surely drops in price. Take a look at a long-term chart and you’ll see what I mean.As traders, we can also use VXX options to place trades that benefit from either rising or falling volatility.Buying VXX Call Options To Protect Against A Volatility SpikeSome traders will buy VXX call options as a method of protecting against rising volatility. Let’s look at a couple of different examples.A long call option trade gives the buyer of the option the right to purchase a certain stock at a certain price (strike price) up until a certain date (expiration date).Suppose an investor is worried about a market drop and associated volatility spike between now and mid-August.The investor could purchase a VXX August 19 call option with a strike price of 27. This call option contract was trading on Friday for around $1.10 meaning the investor would need to pay $110 to purchase the call option.The maximum loss is limited to the premium paid, which in this case is $110. The maximum loss would occur if VXX closes below 27 on August 19. The breakeven price is 28.10 which is calculated by taking the strike price and adding the premium paid.The maximum potential gain is unlimited.Savvy traders can further reduce the risk by selling an out-of-the-money call, turning the trade into a bull call spread.For example, selling the August 19, 32 call would reduce the trade cost by around $50 but would also limit the upside above 32.ConclusionUsing VXX options can be simple and cheap way to buy some protection against a sharp selloff in stocks between now and August. The trade can be placed relatively cheaply at $110 for the long call or just $60 for the bull call spread.While it is important to keep in mind that it may take a fairly large volatility spike to see VXX jump above 27, for a low cost, this particular option trade could help you sleep easier at night.VXX and VXX options behave differently to regular ETF’s and options, so it is vital that any trader using this product fully understands the risks involved.

The company's Jun","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Investors are feeling a little jittery about Apple stock, and for logical reasons. The company's June quarter earnings report is less than four weeks away, and there are reasons to worry.</p><p>In particular, there are signs of slowing demand for both smartphones and personal computers, especially -- but not exclusively -- in China. After the close of trading Thursday, the memory chip company Micron Technology(ticker: MU) posted May quarter results that were about in line with estimates, but projected August quarter revenue sharply below the Street's consensus forecasts. The new forecast largely reflects a sharp falloff in demand for PCs and smartphones in China: Micron said weakness in China consumer tech end-markets trimmed its sales guidance by about 10%.</p><p>Street consensus estimates call for Apple to post June quarter revenue of $82.4 billion, with profits of $1.16 a share. When the company reported March quarter results, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri had cautioned that Apple expects a $4 billion to $8 billion hit to top-line growth in the June quarter from supply constraints, along with nearly 3 percentage points of drag from unfavorable foreign exchange rates, with a 1.5 percentage point hit from the suspension of sales in Russia.</p><p>In a research note on Friday, J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee makes the case that Apple can hit the current Street consensus for the quarter. Normally, that wouldn't be saying much, but he contends that the buy side expects an earnings miss due to slowing consumer spending and wider-than-projected foreign-exchange headwinds.</p><p>Chatterjee says better supply dynamics in the quarter will overwhelm modest demand weakness and the wider-than-forecast drag from currency, which he estimates will be 4.5 percentage points.</p><p>The analyst is a little more concerned about the medium-term, though. Chatterjee sees iPhone and iPad sales as vulnerable to softening consumer sentiment; he projects iPhone sales in the second half of calendar 2022 will be down about 4% from a year earlier. But he's still bullish on the company's long-term outlook, and keep his Overweight rating and $200 price target.</p><p>In particular, he says Apple is well-positioned to outperform the market in almost any macroeconomic environment. A recession, he writes, would "showcase resilient iPhone demand driven by replacement cycles," and would be buoyed by a substantial earnings contribution from services. And if the economy stabilizes, he adds, Apple could see upside from a rapid consumer rebound.</p><p>Apple shares rose 1.6% on Friday. The stock is off 12% since the company's last earnings report and down 22% for the year to date.

The company's June quarter earnings report is less than four weeks away, and there are reasons to worry.In particular, there are signs of slowing demand for both smartphones and personal computers, especially -- but not exclusively -- in China. After the close of trading Thursday, the memory chip company Micron Technology(ticker: MU) posted May quarter results that were about in line with estimates, but projected August quarter revenue sharply below the Street's consensus forecasts. The new forecast largely reflects a sharp falloff in demand for PCs and smartphones in China: Micron said weakness in China consumer tech end-markets trimmed its sales guidance by about 10%.Street consensus estimates call for Apple to post June quarter revenue of $82.4 billion, with profits of $1.16 a share. When the company reported March quarter results, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri had cautioned that Apple expects a $4 billion to $8 billion hit to top-line growth in the June quarter from supply constraints, along with nearly 3 percentage points of drag from unfavorable foreign exchange rates, with a 1.5 percentage point hit from the suspension of sales in Russia.In a research note on Friday, J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee makes the case that Apple can hit the current Street consensus for the quarter. Normally, that wouldn't be saying much, but he contends that the buy side expects an earnings miss due to slowing consumer spending and wider-than-projected foreign-exchange headwinds.Chatterjee says better supply dynamics in the quarter will overwhelm modest demand weakness and the wider-than-forecast drag from currency, which he estimates will be 4.5 percentage points.The analyst is a little more concerned about the medium-term, though. Chatterjee sees iPhone and iPad sales as vulnerable to softening consumer sentiment; he projects iPhone sales in the second half of calendar 2022 will be down about 4% from a year earlier. But he's still bullish on the company's long-term outlook, and keep his Overweight rating and $200 price target.In particular, he says Apple is well-positioned to outperform the market in almost any macroeconomic environment. A recession, he writes, would \"showcase resilient iPhone demand driven by replacement cycles,\" and would be buoyed by a substantial earnings contribution from services. And if the economy stabilizes, he adds, Apple could see upside from a rapid consumer rebound.Apple shares rose 1.6% on Friday. The stock is off 12% since the company's last earnings report and down 22% for the year to date. The company remains the single largest U.S. company by market cap, with a valuation of $2.2 trillion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9044553134,"gmtCreate":1656803182528,"gmtModify":1676535894370,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9044553134","repostId":"2248824336","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2248824336","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"T-Reuters","id":"1086160438","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a113a995fbbc262262d15a5ce37e7bc5"},"pubTimestamp":1656762614,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2248824336?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-02 19:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Berkshire Hathaway Buys 9.9 Million More Occidental Shares, Has 17.4% Stake","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2248824336","media":"T-Reuters","summary":"July 1 (Reuters) -

Ron Baron, founder of investment management firm Baron Capital, recently went on CNBC to say that the bear market we’re in presents a “once-in-a-generation buying opportunity” for investors to pick-up stocks of quality companies at distressed prices.</p><p>Legendary investor Warren Buffett has bought more stocks this year than he has at any time over the last decade, spending $51 billion in the process and adhering to his own mantra that investors should: “Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.”</p><p>With market volatility near all-time highs and both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes each down more than 20% and firmly in bear market territory, the conditions are right for investors to steady their nerves and add some great stocks to their portfolio while prices are at their lowest levels since before the pandemic hit in March 2020. Here are seven stocks to buy right now.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b25108f0ee4844e7bb63b82a1e10d46c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>The market downturn this year has washed out a lot of unprofitable high-growth technology stocks that were grossly overvalued coming out of the pandemic. However, the rout has also dragged down the share prices of the very best tech concerns, presenting a huge opportunity to investors.</p><p>Case in point is consumer electronic giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>, whose stock is down nearly 24% this year at $136.13 a share. The drop in AAPL stock does not reflect thevaluation of the companyor its earnings, which have remained robust despite some headwinds in terms of manufacturing in China and global supply chain disruptions.</p><p>At the end of April, Apple reported quarterly results that showed its revenue grew nearly 9% year-over-year during this year’s first quarter. The company also announced plans to buy back $90 billion of its own stock. Plus, the company has continued to announce a raft of product upgrades and new services in recent months, including a buy now, pay later feature that moves Apple further into the finance space.</p><p>By almost every measure, Apple continues to fire on all cylinders. This helps explain why Warren Buffettadded to his position in AAPL stockduring this year’s first quarter as the price fell, buying an additional $600 million worth of shares.</p><p>“Unfortunately the stock went back up, so I stopped. Otherwise who knows how much we would have bought?” Buffett said at his company <b>Berkshire Hathaway’s</b> annual meeting in early May.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">Ford</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a5cb4e3b98e41f8ea8302a8251375c6\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Speaking of great American companies whose stock is available at fire sale prices, how about automotive powerhouse <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">Ford</a>? Year to date, F stock is down 45% to $11.45 a share. This is after the Detroit automaker’s stock ran up more than 100% in 2021 to hit a 52-week high of $25.87.</p><p>The decline in recent months has been mostly due toglobal supply chain issuesthat are impacting all automakers, and concerns that a global economic recession could lead consumers to put off big ticket purchases such as a new vehicle. However, these issues are temporary and shouldn’t get in the way of Ford’s long-term transition to electric vehicles.</p><p>Already, Ford is rolling out electric versions of its most popular vehicles, the F-150 pick-up truck, that hastopped the North American sales chartsevery year since 1976, and its iconic Mustang muscle car. The electric F-150 truck already has more than 200,000 preorders. And it is just one of the electric vehicles Ford is set to release as the company aggressively moves tochallenge rival <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla</a> as the world’s leading electric vehicle manufacturer.</p><p>To that end, Ford recently announced plans to invest $3.7 billion in its development of electric vehicles, which is on top of the $11.4 billion it had already committed. The money is expected to create more than 6,000 unionized manufacturing jobs in states such as Michigan, Ohio and Missouri. Ford is also in the process of building new battery manufacturing facilities in Tennessee and Kentucky. The money spent on Ford’s electric future should benefit shareholders over the long-term.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AXP\">American Express</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0dca58551f022a03f21829f8d1565231\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Credit card giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AXP\">American Express</a> has proven to be a reliable investment through good times and bad. In the past five years, AXP stock has gained approximately 75%, and risen 1,075% since the low point of the 2008-09 financial crisis. Yet, at its current share price of $141.95, American Express stock is only slightly above its 52-week low, making it as creaming buy for investors who have a long time horizon.</p><p>At the start of this year, American Express stock was near $200, and most analysts see itclimbing back to that levelonce the current market downturn reverses. The lowest estimate on the stock is currently $146 a share, or nearly two bucks higher than where it’s currently trading.</p><p>Like all financial companies, American Express’ earnings should be positively impacted as interest rates rise, enabling it to charge higher rates on the credit cards and other loan vehicles it issues.</p><p>Wells Fargo recently named AXP stock a top pick, noting that “The shares are trading at 14 times our 2023 earnings estimate. [That’s] well below the 18 times we believe is warranted for this high return on equity business.”</p><p>Additionally, American Express enjoys more affluent card members than rival credit card issuers, which Wells Fargo says brings with it lucrative partners in the form of hotels, airlines and various retailers.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d8c777beef9fcbe72151403c6646024\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a> recentlysplit its stock on a 20-for-1 basis, bringing the price down to $123 a share from more than $2,000 previously. But in the days immediately following the split, AMZN stock fell to a fresh 52-week low of $101.26 a share, pushing the stock to its most affordable level in more than a decade.</p><p>Down over 34% this year, Amazon’s stock is now trading at $109.65, only slightly above its low point over the past 12 months. This gives investors an opportunity to own a piece of the world’s biggest e-commerce company on the cheap and benefit hugely when the stock inevitably recovers and rises again.</p><p>Like virtually every company on this list, Amazon is struggling with issues that include wage inflation, supply chain snarls, and rising interest rates that are slowing consumer spending. But none of these problems is unique to Amazon and they will pass eventually. And coming out of the pandemic, Amazon is proving to be a stronger and more diversified company. Consider thate-commerce salesare forecast to exceed more than $1 trillion in the U.S. this year, and that Amazon controls 40% of the market.</p><p>The company also continues to benefit from its Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing unit, which last year represented more than 70% of its operating income. Amazon currently holds a 33% share of the global cloud computing market, and growing.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">Disney</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40fc87bdcbed7930885ce7e4e62c9016\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Shares of the world’s biggest entertainment company are currently changing hands at $94.34 a share. The last time <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">Disney</a> stock was that low was immediately after the<b>World Health Organization</b>(WHO) declared Covid-19 a global pandemic and markets around the world crashed.</p><p>Prior to that, you have to go back to early 2015 to find the last time shares of the Mouse House traded around $95. Disney stock is currentlydown 40% on the year, and 50% below its 52-week high of $187.58. The selloff has been partly due to broader market volatility and partly due to concerns that subscriber growth is slowing on the Disney+ streaming platform.</p><p>However, the naysayers are neglecting to factor in the strong box office performances from several theatrically released Disney films in recent months. Pixar animated movie<i>Lightyear</i>just debuted in thenumber one spotat the global box office with a weekend haul of $85.6 million. That follows the$942.48 million total earnedby Marvel’s<i>Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness</i>.</p><p>Other highly anticipated movies are on their way to the big screen in coming months, including<i>Thor: Love and Thunder</i>and<i>Pinocchio</i>. Plus, this summer marks the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began that all Disney theme parks will be fully open with no capacity restrictions. Add in the company’s cruise ships and branded merchandise, and it’s easy to see that Disney is more than a streaming platform.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa9e8450692c602e82bc1425f44efe56\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Shares of shipping and logistics giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a> recently got a big boost after the company announced that it isboosting its quarterly dividend by 53%. That news immediately sent FDX stock up 14%, its biggest one-day gain since 1986. Yet despite the jump higher, Federal Express’ stock remains down 12% on the year at $227.43 a share.</p><p>The company’s stock has been in investor jail since management warned that shipments are slowing coming out of the pandemic. But shareholders shouldn’t be overly concerned. Especially ones who can afford to be patient with the stock.</p><p>The company is clearly making shareholders a priority. In addition to the massive dividend increase, which takes the quarterly payout to $1.15 a share, FedEx also announced that it is adding “total shareholder return” as a performance metric to its executive compensation program. This is on top of the$5 billion share repurchase programthe company announced last December.</p><p>The renewed focus on shareholder returns comes as FedEx founder Fred Smithtransitions to the role of executive chairmanand is replaced as chief executive officer (CEO) by Raj Subramaniam. The leadership transition, coupled with the depressed price of FDX stock, presents a nice entry point for investors.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BRK.B\">Berkshire Hathaway</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b48ca8d929e698b94adc316bcf179dc1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Given the outsized influence Warren Buffett continues to exert on markets and investors, it is fitting to include his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, on this list. Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock is down 10% year to date at $268.55 per share. That’s better than the 23% decline in the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, BRK.B stock is now25% below its 52-week highof $362.10 and only slightly above its 52-week low of $265.68 a share. This presents a great entry point for investors and an opportunity to own shares of one of the most successful companies in U.S. history.</p><p>A holding company, Berkshire Hathaway owns many companies outright, ranging from railroads and insurers to the Dairy Queen fast food restaurant chain and Fruit of the Loom underwear maker.</p><p>Berkshire also owns avast portfolio of stocksthat includes many of the names on this list, such as Apple, American Express and Amazon. The company’s portfolio currently totals more than $300 billion and that is with this year’s market decline. However, Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio has consistently beaten the results of the S&P 500. Between 1999 and 2020, Berkshireoutperformed the benchmark S&P 500in 12 years.</p><p>The company’s track record is even more impressive the further back one goes. Investors could do worse than throw their lot in with Warren Buffett.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>7 Stocks to Buy Right Now</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\">\n7 Stocks to Buy Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-26 08:50 GMT+8 <a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stocks of these companies are screaming buys at their current depressed prices.Apple: A leading and highly profitable tech company that continues to innovate.Ford: An automotive powerhouse whose ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1117405935","content_text":"Stocks of these companies are screaming buys at their current depressed prices.Apple: A leading and highly profitable tech company that continues to innovate.Ford: An automotive powerhouse whose transition to electric vehicles is proceeding full steam ahead.American Express: A top credit card issuer whose earnings should be positively impacted by higher interest rates.Amazon: The world's biggest e-commerce company just split its stock on a 20-for-1 basis, making them more affordable.Disney: The biggest entertainment company in the world is seeing big returns from its theatrically released films and theme parks.FedEx: The shipping and logistics giant just raised its quarterly dividend by 53% as it focuses on shareholder returns.Berkshire Hathaway: The company run by Warren Buffett continues to be a reliable bet in good times and bad.The current market selloff, while scary, presents an enormous berth of stocks to buy for investors.

Plus, the company has continued to announce a raft of product upgrades and new services in recent months, including a buy now, pay later feature that moves Apple further into the finance space.By almost every measure, Apple continues to fire on all cylinders. This helps explain why Warren Buffettadded to his position in AAPL stockduring this year’s first quarter as the price fell, buying an additional $600 million worth of shares.“Unfortunately the stock went back up, so I stopped. Otherwise who knows how much we would have bought?” Buffett said at his company Berkshire Hathaway’s annual meeting in early May.FordSpeaking of great American companies whose stock is available at fire sale prices, how about automotive powerhouse Ford? Year to date, F stock is down 45% to $11.45 a share. This is after the Detroit automaker’s stock ran up more than 100% in 2021 to hit a 52-week high of $25.87.The decline in recent months has been mostly due toglobal supply chain issuesthat are impacting all automakers, and concerns that a global economic recession could lead consumers to put off big ticket purchases such as a new vehicle. However, these issues are temporary and shouldn’t get in the way of Ford’s long-term transition to electric vehicles.Already, Ford is rolling out electric versions of its most popular vehicles, the F-150 pick-up truck, that hastopped the North American sales chartsevery year since 1976, and its iconic Mustang muscle car. The electric F-150 truck already has more than 200,000 preorders. And it is just one of the electric vehicles Ford is set to release as the company aggressively moves tochallenge rival Tesla as the world’s leading electric vehicle manufacturer.To that end, Ford recently announced plans to invest $3.7 billion in its development of electric vehicles, which is on top of the $11.4 billion it had already committed. The money is expected to create more than 6,000 unionized manufacturing jobs in states such as Michigan, Ohio and Missouri. Ford is also in the process of building new battery manufacturing facilities in Tennessee and Kentucky. The money spent on Ford’s electric future should benefit shareholders over the long-term.American ExpressCredit card giant American Express has proven to be a reliable investment through good times and bad. In the past five years, AXP stock has gained approximately 75%, and risen 1,075% since the low point of the 2008-09 financial crisis. Yet, at its current share price of $141.95, American Express stock is only slightly above its 52-week low, making it as creaming buy for investors who have a long time horizon.At the start of this year, American Express stock was near $200, and most analysts see itclimbing back to that levelonce the current market downturn reverses. The lowest estimate on the stock is currently $146 a share, or nearly two bucks higher than where it’s currently trading.Like all financial companies, American Express’ earnings should be positively impacted as interest rates rise, enabling it to charge higher rates on the credit cards and other loan vehicles it issues.Wells Fargo recently named AXP stock a top pick, noting that “The shares are trading at 14 times our 2023 earnings estimate. [That’s] well below the 18 times we believe is warranted for this high return on equity business.”Additionally, American Express enjoys more affluent card members than rival credit card issuers, which Wells Fargo says brings with it lucrative partners in the form of hotels, airlines and various retailers.AmazonAmazon recentlysplit its stock on a 20-for-1 basis, bringing the price down to $123 a share from more than $2,000 previously. But in the days immediately following the split, AMZN stock fell to a fresh 52-week low of $101.26 a share, pushing the stock to its most affordable level in more than a decade.Down over 34% this year, Amazon’s stock is now trading at $109.65, only slightly above its low point over the past 12 months. This gives investors an opportunity to own a piece of the world’s biggest e-commerce company on the cheap and benefit hugely when the stock inevitably recovers and rises again.Like virtually every company on this list, Amazon is struggling with issues that include wage inflation, supply chain snarls, and rising interest rates that are slowing consumer spending. But none of these problems is unique to Amazon and they will pass eventually. And coming out of the pandemic, Amazon is proving to be a stronger and more diversified company. Consider thate-commerce salesare forecast to exceed more than $1 trillion in the U.S. this year, and that Amazon controls 40% of the market.The company also continues to benefit from its Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing unit, which last year represented more than 70% of its operating income. Amazon currently holds a 33% share of the global cloud computing market, and growing.DisneyShares of the world’s biggest entertainment company are currently changing hands at $94.34 a share. The last time Disney stock was that low was immediately after theWorld Health Organization(WHO) declared Covid-19 a global pandemic and markets around the world crashed.Prior to that, you have to go back to early 2015 to find the last time shares of the Mouse House traded around $95. Disney stock is currentlydown 40% on the year, and 50% below its 52-week high of $187.58. The selloff has been partly due to broader market volatility and partly due to concerns that subscriber growth is slowing on the Disney+ streaming platform.However, the naysayers are neglecting to factor in the strong box office performances from several theatrically released Disney films in recent months. Pixar animated movieLightyearjust debuted in thenumber one spotat the global box office with a weekend haul of $85.6 million. That follows the$942.48 million total earnedby Marvel’sDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.Other highly anticipated movies are on their way to the big screen in coming months, includingThor: Love and ThunderandPinocchio. Plus, this summer marks the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began that all Disney theme parks will be fully open with no capacity restrictions. Add in the company’s cruise ships and branded merchandise, and it’s easy to see that Disney is more than a streaming platform.FedExShares of shipping and logistics giant FedEx recently got a big boost after the company announced that it isboosting its quarterly dividend by 53%. That news immediately sent FDX stock up 14%, its biggest one-day gain since 1986. Yet despite the jump higher, Federal Express’ stock remains down 12% on the year at $227.43 a share.The company’s stock has been in investor jail since management warned that shipments are slowing coming out of the pandemic. But shareholders shouldn’t be overly concerned. Especially ones who can afford to be patient with the stock.The company is clearly making shareholders a priority. In addition to the massive dividend increase, which takes the quarterly payout to $1.15 a share, FedEx also announced that it is adding “total shareholder return” as a performance metric to its executive compensation program. This is on top of the$5 billion share repurchase programthe company announced last December.The renewed focus on shareholder returns comes as FedEx founder Fred Smithtransitions to the role of executive chairmanand is replaced as chief executive officer (CEO) by Raj Subramaniam. The leadership transition, coupled with the depressed price of FDX stock, presents a nice entry point for investors.Berkshire HathawayGiven the outsized influence Warren Buffett continues to exert on markets and investors, it is fitting to include his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, on this list. Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock is down 10% year to date at $268.55 per share. That’s better than the 23% decline in the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, BRK.B stock is now25% below its 52-week highof $362.10 and only slightly above its 52-week low of $265.68 a share. This presents a great entry point for investors and an opportunity to own shares of one of the most successful companies in U.S. history.A holding company, Berkshire Hathaway owns many companies outright, ranging from railroads and insurers to the Dairy Queen fast food restaurant chain and Fruit of the Loom underwear maker.Berkshire also owns avast portfolio of stocksthat includes many of the names on this list, such as Apple, American Express and Amazon. The company’s portfolio currently totals more than $300 billion and that is with this year’s market decline. However, Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio has consistently beaten the results of the S&P 500. Between 1999 and 2020, Berkshireoutperformed the benchmark S&P 500in 12 years.The company’s track record is even more impressive the further back one goes. Investors could do worse than throw their lot in with Warren Buffett.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":142,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9048821443,"gmtCreate":1656196737782,"gmtModify":1676535781306,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9048821443","repostId":"1192265091","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192265091","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1656114377,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1192265091?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-25 07:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Get Ready for a Rally in S&P 500","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192265091","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"Equity strategists at Stifel think the S&P 500 could surge higher this summer, led by cyclical growt","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Equity strategists at Stifel think the S&P 500 could surge higher this summer, led by cyclical growth stocks including tech, despite being in a secular or long-term bear market.

However, not all of these companies are necessarily a buy at the same time. Instead, some of them usually tend to be better value picks than others at any specific time, while risks to their business models also change over time. In this report, we'll highlight 5 Dividend Aristocrats that are attractive right here, and 5 others that may be better avoided for now.</p><h2>Better Than Most In Times Of Crisis</h2><p>The world is currently battling several crises, among them a war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, supply chain issues and disruptions around the globe, and inflation, driven in part by high energy prices. Equity markets have dropped quite a lot so far this year, which is why investors may want to search for safe-haven assets that have a history of outperforming during market crashes. The Dividend Aristocrats, as a group, have done exactly that in the past:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d28416c3e11117ad7443c06f190239c5\" tg-width=\"291\" tg-height=\"662\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Article from Seeking Alpha author Ploutos</p><p></p><p>In the above table, we see that the Dividend Aristocrats as a group have outperformed the broad market in many years, with the outperformance oftentimes being particularly strong during times when the market dropped. This includes the dot.com crash, where Dividend Aristocrats rose in the 2000-2022 time frame, and the 2008 crash when the Dividend Aristocrats handsomely outperformed the market. As a group, Dividend Aristocrats thus have merit as a below-average risk choice for times when markets are experiencing headwinds.</p><p>Investors can go with the Dividend Aristocrats (NOBL), or they can opt for individual stocks in this group, which has the benefit of avoiding stocks that are too expensive. Usually, some of the stocks in this group trade above fair value at any given time, while others are trading below fair value. When one buys the ETF, one naturally buys both undervalued and overvalued stocks, whereas opting for individual stocks allows investors to be pickier with what they buy at a specific time.</p><h2>5 Dividend Aristocrats That May Better Be Avoided Today</h2><h4>1: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMT\">Walmart</a></h4><p>Walmart (WMT) is not a bad company at all. It has delivered compelling returns for those that have bought early on, and it is resilient versus recessions. The company also was resilient during the pandemic, which isn't too surprising, as consumers still needed to buy food and other staples even during the lockdown phase.</p><p>But in the current environment, with inflation hurting consumer spending, while transportation costs for Walmart are soaring, the company is seeing its profitability come under pressure.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/929ce2b7e2db2cf60da63ca4d02f7abd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Walmart's forecasted earnings per share have declined in recent months, and more downward revisions could be coming if shipping rates, wages, etc. continue to increase Walmart's expenses. At the same time, Walmart is currently trading at a premium relative to the long-term median earnings multiple, which makes me believe that now is not yet a great time to enter a position.</p><h4>2: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TGT\">Target</a></h4><p>Target (TGT) is, like Walmart, a quality retailer. Like Walmart, it faces hefty headwinds from inflation, as it has had trouble passing on higher expenses to consumers. With wages rising, trucking becoming more expensive, and consumers potentially cutting back on some of the discretionary item purchases done at Target, 2022 will likely not be a great year for the retailer.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87b22c1a904757389996299dd196ed0d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Earnings per share estimates have dropped like a rock in recent months, from north of $14 to below $9, and there is no guarantee that there won't be further guidance cuts. The company is not really expensive in absolute terms but does still trade at a premium compared to the longer-term average. I thus do believe that waiting for EPS estimates to bottom out and/or for the valuation to drop to the longer-term average is a better idea compared to buying now.</p><h4>3: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLX\">Clorox</a></h4><p>Clorox (CLX) operates with a resilient business model. Demand for cleaning products isn't very cyclical, although consumers may opt for cheaper non-brand products during a recession or when inflation leads to higher living expenses. Clorox did perform reasonably well during the pandemic, but from a valuation perspective, shares are far from an enticing buy today.</p><p>Looking at earnings estimates for the current year and the valuation relative to the longer-term median, there are good reasons to avoid Clorox for now:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/14dfaf4e946450f17e92698d6b2c0081\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Issues when it comes to passing on higher costs have resulted in steep earnings per share estimate cuts, and Clorox has become quite expensive as a result of that. Today, shares are valued at 33x net profits, around 30% higher than the longer-term median. Waiting for a better entry price seems like an opportune move for those that are interested in owning this company.</p><h4>4: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MCD\">McDonald's</a></h4><p>McDonald's (MCD) is one of the best restaurant operators in the world and has been a strong long-term investment in the past. But with a recession becoming more likely, it is doubtful whether 2022 will be a strong year for the company, especially since a significant portion of its customers will likely feel the pinch from rising gasoline and energy prices especially hard. This will limit their ability to spend on dining out. At the same time, rising food prices, e.g. for beef or wheat, will lead to higher expenses on McDonald's side. The recovery from the pandemic that investors hoped for may thus be underwhelming this year.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53ed5207ec3f5214589b8a88d3b51809\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Earnings per share estimates have pulled back this year due to the aforementioned headwinds from inflation and a potential recession. At the same time, McDonald's trades slightly above the historic valuation norm, and at 25x net profits, its shares are also far from cheap in absolute terms. Waiting for a better entry point could pay off, I believe.</p><h4><b>5: Brown-Forman</b></h4><p>Brown-Forman (BF.A)(BF.B) is a leading alcohol/spirits company that has delivered attractive returns in the long run. But with inflation pressuring household spending, consumers will likely cut back on the purchases of higher-priced alcoholic beverages. At the same time, less dining out in a potential recession would lead to fewer alcohol sales at restaurants. Both of these trends aren't positive for Brown-Forman. Sales and profits will not fall off a cliff, as shown by past recessions during which Brown-Forman has remained profitable. But the near-term outlook is far from great, and yet, Brown-Forman trades at a rather high valuation. Based on current forecasts, Brown-Forman is valued at 35x forward earnings, which seems like a pricey valuation to pay for a consumer goods company that has a solid but not spectacular growth outlook. For reference, high-growth, high-quality tech companies such as Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) trade at lower valuations today. Would I like to buy Brown-Forman at 20x net profits? Absolutely. But I do not believe that buying shares at 35x net profits will be a great deal.</p><h2>5 Dividend Aristocrats That Are Attractively Valued Today</h2><h4>1: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ABBV\">AbbVie</a></h4><p>AbbVie (ABBV) has seen its shares pull back from recent highs, which has made its valuation decline to a more attractive level and which results in a higher initial dividend yield for those buying today. At $147 per share, AbbVie is valued at just 10.5x forward earnings while offering a dividend yield of 3.8%. The biopharma company will experience some headwinds from the patent expiration on Humira in the US next year, but that does not hurt the long-term growth outlook too much. AbbVie guides for combined Rinvoq and Skyrizi -- two drugs that seek to replace Humira -- sales of more than $15 billion in 2025, and peak sales of these two drugs are forecasted to be higher than Humira's peak sales. AbbVie points out that it has hit or beat its guidance for every quarter since the company went public, so investors can have some trust in what management is forecasting -- the company has a history of underpromising, not overpromising. With shares having pulled back from $180 to below $150, now could be a good time to add to a position in this high-yielding biopharma Dividend Aristocrat.</p><h4>2: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MO\">Altria</a></h4><p>Altria (MO) has dropped quite a lot in the very recent past, at least partially driven by the banning of JUUL vaping devices. Altria has a stake in JUUL, thus this will most likely result in an asset write-off on Altria's side in the upcoming quarterly report. But since this will be a non-cash item, investors don't have to worry about any danger to the company's dividend at all. In fact, JUUL wasn't profitable anyway, thus none of Altria's earnings power has vanished.</p><p>The fact that Altria has dropped to the low $40s on this news, which results in an earnings multiple of just 8.5 and which makes for a hefty 8.7% dividend yield provides investors with a compelling buying opportunity, I believe. Even if Altria were to never grow its earnings or dividend ever again, the dividend yield alone would provide reasonably attractive total returns. But with a dividend increase likely coming up this August, and with Altria delivering extremely consistent earnings per share growth in the past and likely also in the future, total returns of more than 10% are definitely possible here.</p><h4>3: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JNJ\">Johnson & Johnson</a></h4><p>Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is one of the lowest-risk stocks anyone could ever invest in. The company is well-diversified across three different industries, and none of those industries are cyclical: Pharma, medical tech, and consumer staples all perform reasonably well under almost any circumstances. On top of that, Johnson & Johnson is one of only two companies in the world that has a triple-A rating, meaning financial risks are ultra-low here. If rating agencies are correct, risks are lower compared to lending one's money to the U.S. government.</p><p>Quality usually has a price, which is why it is not too surprising to see that Johnson & Johnson has on average traded at a 22x earnings multiple over the last decade:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3cb8b792e00b35f6fb1def1f813e38f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Today, however, shares trade at a meaningful discount to that, as investors can buy JNJ at a 17x earnings multiple. The company has just raised its dividend, and the dividend yield is now 2.6%. That's not extremely high, but way more than what one can get from the broad market, while taking on way less risk at the same time -- an attractive combination, I believe.</p><h4>4: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a></h4><p>Chevron (CVX) is one of the global supermajors in the oil and gas industry. It owns vast upstream/production and downstream/refining & marketing assets. With significant exposure to liquified natural gas production and sales, the company benefits a lot from ultra-high natural gas prices in many markets around the world, such as Europe or parts of Asia.</p><p>Shares are up so far this year but have recently pulled back meaningfully from the highs around $180. Earnings will explode upwards this year, as high natural gas prices, high oil prices, and hefty refining margins make for a perfect combination to drive up profits at Chevron and its peers. From a valuation perspective, Chevron seems far from expensive:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/49de3f301c7ad2a8150988d2aa000361\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Shares have actually become less expensive over the last year, now trading at an enterprise value to EBITDA ratio of less than 5. This is also 30% below the longer-term median, suggesting that a big profit decline is already baked into the share price today. But if experts from Goldman Sachs (GS) and others are right and we are only in the early stages of a commodity supercycle, then profits may actually rise further in 2023 and beyond. In that case, Chevron could continue to deliver impressive returns between earnings growth, buybacks, and a 3.9% dividend yield.</p><h4>5: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ESS\">Essex Property Trust</a></h4><p>Essex Property Trust (ESS) is a residential real estate company that primarily invests in multifamily properties in major West Coast markets. Rising mortgage rates have made it much costlier for Americans to acquire homes, which should be a positive for rent demand. At the same time, Essex Property Trust has locked in cheap rates for many years, which means that high inflation helps it cut down debt in real terms, even before factoring in debt payments. Real estate prices have not yet declined meaningfully in the US, and it is not a sure thing whether that will happen as demand and input costs remain high. But ESS has already seen its shares drop from $360+ to the $250s, meaning investors are already pricing in a major real estate market decline without such a decline materializing so far.</p><p>Essex Property Trust's dividend yield is also at the upper end of the historic range when we back out the once-in-a-lifetime sale during the pandemic.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea1b0b8d6f8a9783ba1782d1adfd8f02\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>From a valuation perspective, Essex Property Trust thus looks like a better-than-average buy today. This is underlined by the 18x FFO multiple, which is not expensive for a residential property REIT such as ESS. Locking in a 3.3% yield with dividends that will in all likelihood continue to rise does not seem like a bad investment proposition at all.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>Dividend Aristocrats can be a nice addition to a portfolio, as they tend to outperform the broad market during times of trouble. It looks like that could come in handy in the coming months, as inflation, a potential recession, interest rate worries, and supply chain disruptions make for a tough macro environment.</p><p>Investors should not buy all Dividend Aristocrats before factoring in their exposure to these themes and their valuation, however. I do believe that some Dividend Aristocrats are more attractive than others today. I'd be keen to hear what you think about these picks or other ones with similar benefits and risks in the comment section.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>5 Dividend Aristocrats To Buy And 5 Dividend Aristocrats To Avoid</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n5 Dividend Aristocrats To Buy And 5 Dividend Aristocrats To Avoid\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-25 09:25 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4519987-5-dividend-aristocrats-buys-and-5-dividend-aristocrats-to-avoid><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Article ThesisIn times of market turmoil, Dividend Aristocrats, with their reliable income and proven resilience, can be good investments.

However, not all of these companies are necessarily a buy at the same time. Instead, some of them usually tend to be better value picks than others at any specific time, while risks to their business models also change over time. In this report, we'll highlight 5 Dividend Aristocrats that are attractive right here, and 5 others that may be better avoided for now.Better Than Most In Times Of CrisisThe world is currently battling several crises, among them a war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, supply chain issues and disruptions around the globe, and inflation, driven in part by high energy prices. Equity markets have dropped quite a lot so far this year, which is why investors may want to search for safe-haven assets that have a history of outperforming during market crashes. The Dividend Aristocrats, as a group, have done exactly that in the past:Article from Seeking Alpha author PloutosIn the above table, we see that the Dividend Aristocrats as a group have outperformed the broad market in many years, with the outperformance oftentimes being particularly strong during times when the market dropped. This includes the dot.com crash, where Dividend Aristocrats rose in the 2000-2022 time frame, and the 2008 crash when the Dividend Aristocrats handsomely outperformed the market. As a group, Dividend Aristocrats thus have merit as a below-average risk choice for times when markets are experiencing headwinds.Investors can go with the Dividend Aristocrats (NOBL), or they can opt for individual stocks in this group, which has the benefit of avoiding stocks that are too expensive. Usually, some of the stocks in this group trade above fair value at any given time, while others are trading below fair value. When one buys the ETF, one naturally buys both undervalued and overvalued stocks, whereas opting for individual stocks allows investors to be pickier with what they buy at a specific time.5 Dividend Aristocrats That May Better Be Avoided Today1: WalmartWalmart (WMT) is not a bad company at all. It has delivered compelling returns for those that have bought early on, and it is resilient versus recessions. The company also was resilient during the pandemic, which isn't too surprising, as consumers still needed to buy food and other staples even during the lockdown phase.But in the current environment, with inflation hurting consumer spending, while transportation costs for Walmart are soaring, the company is seeing its profitability come under pressure.Data by YChartsWalmart's forecasted earnings per share have declined in recent months, and more downward revisions could be coming if shipping rates, wages, etc. continue to increase Walmart's expenses. At the same time, Walmart is currently trading at a premium relative to the long-term median earnings multiple, which makes me believe that now is not yet a great time to enter a position.2: TargetTarget (TGT) is, like Walmart, a quality retailer. Like Walmart, it faces hefty headwinds from inflation, as it has had trouble passing on higher expenses to consumers. With wages rising, trucking becoming more expensive, and consumers potentially cutting back on some of the discretionary item purchases done at Target, 2022 will likely not be a great year for the retailer.Data by YChartsEarnings per share estimates have dropped like a rock in recent months, from north of $14 to below $9, and there is no guarantee that there won't be further guidance cuts. The company is not really expensive in absolute terms but does still trade at a premium compared to the longer-term average. I thus do believe that waiting for EPS estimates to bottom out and/or for the valuation to drop to the longer-term average is a better idea compared to buying now.3: CloroxClorox (CLX) operates with a resilient business model. Demand for cleaning products isn't very cyclical, although consumers may opt for cheaper non-brand products during a recession or when inflation leads to higher living expenses. Clorox did perform reasonably well during the pandemic, but from a valuation perspective, shares are far from an enticing buy today.Looking at earnings estimates for the current year and the valuation relative to the longer-term median, there are good reasons to avoid Clorox for now:Data by YChartsIssues when it comes to passing on higher costs have resulted in steep earnings per share estimate cuts, and Clorox has become quite expensive as a result of that. Today, shares are valued at 33x net profits, around 30% higher than the longer-term median. Waiting for a better entry price seems like an opportune move for those that are interested in owning this company.4: McDonald'sMcDonald's (MCD) is one of the best restaurant operators in the world and has been a strong long-term investment in the past. But with a recession becoming more likely, it is doubtful whether 2022 will be a strong year for the company, especially since a significant portion of its customers will likely feel the pinch from rising gasoline and energy prices especially hard. This will limit their ability to spend on dining out. At the same time, rising food prices, e.g. for beef or wheat, will lead to higher expenses on McDonald's side. The recovery from the pandemic that investors hoped for may thus be underwhelming this year.Data by YChartsEarnings per share estimates have pulled back this year due to the aforementioned headwinds from inflation and a potential recession. At the same time, McDonald's trades slightly above the historic valuation norm, and at 25x net profits, its shares are also far from cheap in absolute terms. Waiting for a better entry point could pay off, I believe.5: Brown-FormanBrown-Forman (BF.A)(BF.B) is a leading alcohol/spirits company that has delivered attractive returns in the long run. But with inflation pressuring household spending, consumers will likely cut back on the purchases of higher-priced alcoholic beverages. At the same time, less dining out in a potential recession would lead to fewer alcohol sales at restaurants. Both of these trends aren't positive for Brown-Forman. Sales and profits will not fall off a cliff, as shown by past recessions during which Brown-Forman has remained profitable. But the near-term outlook is far from great, and yet, Brown-Forman trades at a rather high valuation. Based on current forecasts, Brown-Forman is valued at 35x forward earnings, which seems like a pricey valuation to pay for a consumer goods company that has a solid but not spectacular growth outlook. For reference, high-growth, high-quality tech companies such as Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) trade at lower valuations today. Would I like to buy Brown-Forman at 20x net profits? Absolutely. But I do not believe that buying shares at 35x net profits will be a great deal.5 Dividend Aristocrats That Are Attractively Valued Today1: AbbVieAbbVie (ABBV) has seen its shares pull back from recent highs, which has made its valuation decline to a more attractive level and which results in a higher initial dividend yield for those buying today. At $147 per share, AbbVie is valued at just 10.5x forward earnings while offering a dividend yield of 3.8%. The biopharma company will experience some headwinds from the patent expiration on Humira in the US next year, but that does not hurt the long-term growth outlook too much. AbbVie guides for combined Rinvoq and Skyrizi -- two drugs that seek to replace Humira -- sales of more than $15 billion in 2025, and peak sales of these two drugs are forecasted to be higher than Humira's peak sales. AbbVie points out that it has hit or beat its guidance for every quarter since the company went public, so investors can have some trust in what management is forecasting -- the company has a history of underpromising, not overpromising. With shares having pulled back from $180 to below $150, now could be a good time to add to a position in this high-yielding biopharma Dividend Aristocrat.2: AltriaAltria (MO) has dropped quite a lot in the very recent past, at least partially driven by the banning of JUUL vaping devices. Altria has a stake in JUUL, thus this will most likely result in an asset write-off on Altria's side in the upcoming quarterly report. But since this will be a non-cash item, investors don't have to worry about any danger to the company's dividend at all. In fact, JUUL wasn't profitable anyway, thus none of Altria's earnings power has vanished.The fact that Altria has dropped to the low $40s on this news, which results in an earnings multiple of just 8.5 and which makes for a hefty 8.7% dividend yield provides investors with a compelling buying opportunity, I believe. Even if Altria were to never grow its earnings or dividend ever again, the dividend yield alone would provide reasonably attractive total returns. But with a dividend increase likely coming up this August, and with Altria delivering extremely consistent earnings per share growth in the past and likely also in the future, total returns of more than 10% are definitely possible here.3: Johnson & JohnsonJohnson & Johnson (JNJ) is one of the lowest-risk stocks anyone could ever invest in.

The news flash is that the doom-and-gloomers with a pocalyptic calls for a depression-style crash may end up being wrong. The momentum in stocks right now is real and our message here is that we expect more upside.</p><p><b>A Technical Recession Is No Problem</b></p><p>Inflation has been hot, interest rates are higher, and the latest Q2 GDP data confirmed a technical recession. That being said, the overall economy appears relatively stable or resilient with room to emerge out of this rough patch. The bigger point here is that Q2 is history with an understanding that stocks are forward-looking. From a macro perspective, the scenario we see playing out is the soft landing.</p><p>Briefly, our take on the 0.9% decline in the Q2 GDP is to keep in mind that the economy was historically strong in 2021, growing by a massive 5.7%, in part fueled by the record stimulus last year. The result left both a tough comparison base and added a layer of volatility beyond the headline-making supply chain disruptions and geopolitical issues that defined the quarter. What's more positive is the real growth on a 2- and 3-year stacked basis from pre-pandemic levels. It's also encouraging that the quarter-over-quarter decline narrowed compared to the Q1 trend.</p><p>Other data has been more positive including the low unemployment rate and latest retail sales. In our view, the U.S. consumer as a group has been bruised, but otherwise alive and well.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f471219423737fa34aa6d51422e1f5a0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"334\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: tradingeconomics</span></p><p><b>Peak Inflation and Peak Fed Hawkishness</b></p><p>All indications are that inflation will begin to trend lower which removes one of the main culprits of the recent economic weakness. From there, the latest Fed rate hike likely marked "peak hawkishness" by removing the urgency to get more and more aggressive at future meetings. Inflation, as it relates to a near double-digit annual rate, may very well end up being transitory if we're allowed to un-retire that word.</p><p>The most positive indication is the sharp drop in gas prices which will directly hit the CPI over the next few months. According to data from "GasBuddy", the national average for gas prices in the U.S. is down 78 cents from its peak in mid-June and forecast to drop under $4.00 per gallon over the next few weeks. Consumers are spending less on gas today than last month which means more money for other stuff.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d90d4f10e471f95a70656feacfb33d65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: Twitter</span></p><p>Companies complainingabout high costs are set to get some breathing room. Most commodities are down 10-20% or more from their highs. Furthermore, we can highlight that reports of major retailers moving to discount merchandise to deal with a glut of inventory will also help cool inflation on the goods side. This is important because it plays into both a potential rebound of consumer sentiment and improved economic activity into 2023.</p><p>Investors need to start looking ahead toward the July CPI data release on August 10th. It's not a stretch to imagine that a cold inflation rate print that day will be read positively and can work as a catalyst for the next leg higher in stocks. The Fed may come into September FOMC with some swagger based on evidence their strategy is working. Call it effective execution, good timing, or just dumb luck; but a combination of inflation expectations trending lower while leading economic indicators rebound higher is a strong setup for risk assets. That's why we're bullish.</p><p><b>The Earnings That Really Matter</b></p><p>With Q2 earnings season in full swing, what we're seeing is that the companies that matter, being the mega-cap leaders, are proving capable of effectively navigating the current environment. The bullish case for the S&P 500 got a lift this week with Amazon.com (AMZN) and Apple Inc. (AAPL) both beating estimates adding some confidence to both economic conditions and the market earnings trajectory.</p><p>The reports from other high-profile names like Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) were also positive. Notably, these stocks are among the largest constituents of the S&P 500 which makes the index hard to bet against. At the end of the day, earnings growth is the most important driver for stock market performance.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a81fd6f1229142dc7dfd044c031387a7\" tg-width=\"602\" tg-height=\"586\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>One of the most controversial data points right now is the outlook for S&P 500 earnings to climb 10% this year to $229.14. Any bearish case for stocks essentially needs that number to be wrong and drastically underperform expectations, maybe from a collapse in the economy. It hasn't happened thus far and we don't think it will. The Q2 earnings season is helping to reaffirm the S&P 500 bottom-up EPS estimates.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/166116ac51259509bf3bf659acda1ae5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: FactSet Research Systems</span></p><p>The other side to the earnings trend is the impact on valuations. The chart below makes it clear that the market is cheap considering earnings are climbing even as stock prices are down from their peak. With the S&P 500 currently trading at around the index level of 4100, the implied 12-month market forward P/E is 17x, which is below the 5-year average of 18.5x, around 9% higher. The upside here should consider that as macro conditions improve, earnings estimates have room to be revised even higher, making stocks appear even more attractive. A dynamic of multiples expansion can take hold.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/700439f883ca2e0ab354c8bb6b980324\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>source: FactSet</span></p><p><b>Behavioral Biases Are Dangerous</b></p><p>Putting it all together, we attempted to show that some of the biggest storm clouds are passing and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Anyone with a short position on stocks or even sitting on the sidelines is likely sweating amid the rally in recent weeks.</p><p>We sense that a large segment of the market is falling for a couple of textbook behavioral biases related to cognitive dissonance. The main concept here is the trap of getting too emotionally attached to the bearish (or bullish) case in stocks for any number of reasons.</p><p>In truth, the allure of being a market bear is tempting. There is just something extra gratifying about shorting a stock and making money while the big wigs on Wall Street have a buy rating. Doom and gloom commentary against the grain always seems to come off as extra smart. Similarly, it's fair to say that the current political environment is conducive to keeping a cynical view on things. A call against the market may seem like a referendum against the status quo or even a judgment on global Central Banking orthodoxy. It's understandable, we get it, but it doesn't work like that. The market doesn't care about opinions and keeping an open mind is the way to go.</p><p>It's important to incorporate new information to make more objective decisions to overcome what's known as conservatism bias. Bears may also be expressing some confirmation bias by only valuing the data points that help reaffirm their pessimistic outlook. The headline of Q2 GDP decline may have fed into a view that the economy is falling apart and stocks will crash lower, but what we say was the S&P 500 surged by over 1% on the report.</p><p><b>What's Next?</b></p><p>The next test for the S&P 500 will be at the index level of 4,200 corresponding to around $420 in the SPY ETF. Let's go. We then see SPX retesting 4,500 which is a level it last traded at in mid-April. On the downside, 4,000 is the first level of support while a break under 3,800 or $380 in SPY would be indicative of a more serious deterioration.</p><p>On that point, it's always worth covering some of the risks. We can bring up the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which still has the potential to escalate, would force a reassessment of global stability. Energy prices are also a key monitoring point. Significantly higher oil and gas prices could kickstart a new round of inflation which would undermine the bullish case for equities.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2f1785b169a249f7f1d138140fde7d84\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"308\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>The way we see it playing out is that the market narrative will take some time to change. Some don't want to believe it. People are still talking about high gas prices and record inflation. The Q2 GDP print and big recession word is the headline de jour.</p><p>Fast forward, the door for economic data to come in better than expected over the next few months sets the stage for a new theme of recovery and stronger sentiment. If stocks continue to trend higher, the action will evolve into a fear of missing out for anyone on the sidelines while shorts rush to cover. The momentum can accelerate. Bears were winners to start 2022 but may ultimately be left just holding a participation trophy.</p><p>This article was written by BOOX Research</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>SPY: The Bears Will Be Left Holding A Participation Trophy</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\">\nSPY: The Bears Will Be Left Holding A Participation Trophy\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-30 07:38 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4527348-spy-market-gained-momentum-solid-earnings-season?source=content_type%3Areact%7Cfirst_level_url%3Ahome%7Csection%3Atrending_articles%7Cline%3A11><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe S&P 500 has gained momentum on an overall solid earnings season with a shifting macro environment.An expectation for inflation to trend lower will set the stage for improving economic ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4527348-spy-market-gained-momentum-solid-earnings-season?source=content_type%3Areact%7Cfirst_level_url%3Ahome%7Csection%3Atrending_articles%7Cline%3A11\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"标普500ETF"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4527348-spy-market-gained-momentum-solid-earnings-season?source=content_type%3Areact%7Cfirst_level_url%3Ahome%7Csection%3Atrending_articles%7Cline%3A11","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1167462110","content_text":"SummaryThe S&P 500 has gained momentum on an overall solid earnings season with a shifting macro environment.An expectation for inflation to trend lower will set the stage for improving economic conditions going forward.We are bullish on stocks and expect the rally to accelerate.MotortionThe market action has turned decisively bullish with the S&P 500 (NYSEARCA:SPY) up over 13% from its June cycle low.

Most commodities are down 10-20% or more from their highs. Furthermore, we can highlight that reports of major retailers moving to discount merchandise to deal with a glut of inventory will also help cool inflation on the goods side. This is important because it plays into both a potential rebound of consumer sentiment and improved economic activity into 2023.Investors need to start looking ahead toward the July CPI data release on August 10th. It's not a stretch to imagine that a cold inflation rate print that day will be read positively and can work as a catalyst for the next leg higher in stocks. The Fed may come into September FOMC with some swagger based on evidence their strategy is working. Call it effective execution, good timing, or just dumb luck; but a combination of inflation expectations trending lower while leading economic indicators rebound higher is a strong setup for risk assets. That's why we're bullish.The Earnings That Really MatterWith Q2 earnings season in full swing, what we're seeing is that the companies that matter, being the mega-cap leaders, are proving capable of effectively navigating the current environment. The bullish case for the S&P 500 got a lift this week with Amazon.com (AMZN) and Apple Inc. (AAPL) both beating estimates adding some confidence to both economic conditions and the market earnings trajectory.The reports from other high-profile names like Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) were also positive. Notably, these stocks are among the largest constituents of the S&P 500 which makes the index hard to bet against. At the end of the day, earnings growth is the most important driver for stock market performance.Seeking AlphaOne of the most controversial data points right now is the outlook for S&P 500 earnings to climb 10% this year to $229.14. Any bearish case for stocks essentially needs that number to be wrong and drastically underperform expectations, maybe from a collapse in the economy. It hasn't happened thus far and we don't think it will. The Q2 earnings season is helping to reaffirm the S&P 500 bottom-up EPS estimates.source: FactSet Research SystemsThe other side to the earnings trend is the impact on valuations. The chart below makes it clear that the market is cheap considering earnings are climbing even as stock prices are down from their peak. With the S&P 500 currently trading at around the index level of 4100, the implied 12-month market forward P/E is 17x, which is below the 5-year average of 18.5x, around 9% higher. The upside here should consider that as macro conditions improve, earnings estimates have room to be revised even higher, making stocks appear even more attractive. A dynamic of multiples expansion can take hold.source: FactSetBehavioral Biases Are DangerousPutting it all together, we attempted to show that some of the biggest storm clouds are passing and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Anyone with a short position on stocks or even sitting on the sidelines is likely sweating amid the rally in recent weeks.We sense that a large segment of the market is falling for a couple of textbook behavioral biases related to cognitive dissonance. The main concept here is the trap of getting too emotionally attached to the bearish (or bullish) case in stocks for any number of reasons.In truth, the allure of being a market bear is tempting. There is just something extra gratifying about shorting a stock and making money while the big wigs on Wall Street have a buy rating. Doom and gloom commentary against the grain always seems to come off as extra smart. Similarly, it's fair to say that the current political environment is conducive to keeping a cynical view on things. A call against the market may seem like a referendum against the status quo or even a judgment on global Central Banking orthodoxy. It's understandable, we get it, but it doesn't work like that. The market doesn't care about opinions and keeping an open mind is the way to go.It's important to incorporate new information to make more objective decisions to overcome what's known as conservatism bias. Bears may also be expressing some confirmation bias by only valuing the data points that help reaffirm their pessimistic outlook. The headline of Q2 GDP decline may have fed into a view that the economy is falling apart and stocks will crash lower, but what we say was the S&P 500 surged by over 1% on the report.What's Next?The next test for the S&P 500 will be at the index level of 4,200 corresponding to around $420 in the SPY ETF. Let's go. We then see SPX retesting 4,500 which is a level it last traded at in mid-April. On the downside, 4,000 is the first level of support while a break under 3,800 or $380 in SPY would be indicative of a more serious deterioration.On that point, it's always worth covering some of the risks. We can bring up the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which still has the potential to escalate, would force a reassessment of global stability. Energy prices are also a key monitoring point. Significantly higher oil and gas prices could kickstart a new round of inflation which would undermine the bullish case for equities.Seeking AlphaThe way we see it playing out is that the market narrative will take some time to change. Some don't want to believe it. People are still talking about high gas prices and record inflation. The Q2 GDP print and big recession word is the headline de jour.Fast forward, the door for economic data to come in better than expected over the next few months sets the stage for a new theme of recovery and stronger sentiment. If stocks continue to trend higher, the action will evolve into a fear of missing out for anyone on the sidelines while shorts rush to cover. The momentum can accelerate. Bears were winners to start 2022 but may ultimately be left just holding a participation trophy.This article was written by BOOX Research","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":549,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9993972697,"gmtCreate":1660618548021,"gmtModify":1676536367071,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9993972697","repostId":"2259216560","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2259216560","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1660617618,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2259216560?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-16 10:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TSLA Stock Has 3 Million Reasons to Climb Higher","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2259216560","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Tesla has reached an important milestone.According to Elon Musk, the company has produced over 3 mil","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla</a> has reached an important milestone.</li><li>According to Elon Musk, the company has produced over 3 million cars.</li><li>TSLA stock is rising today as the electric vehicle leader celebrates.</li></ul><p>Investors have been watching <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla</a> stock closely since the company confirmed its 3-for-1 stock split.

Ron Baron, founder of investment management firm Baron Capital, recently went on CNBC to say that the bear market we’re in presents a “once-in-a-generation buying opportunity” for investors to pick-up stocks of quality companies at distressed prices.</p><p>Legendary investor Warren Buffett has bought more stocks this year than he has at any time over the last decade, spending $51 billion in the process and adhering to his own mantra that investors should: “Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.”</p><p>With market volatility near all-time highs and both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes each down more than 20% and firmly in bear market territory, the conditions are right for investors to steady their nerves and add some great stocks to their portfolio while prices are at their lowest levels since before the pandemic hit in March 2020. Here are seven stocks to buy right now.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b25108f0ee4844e7bb63b82a1e10d46c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>The market downturn this year has washed out a lot of unprofitable high-growth technology stocks that were grossly overvalued coming out of the pandemic. However, the rout has also dragged down the share prices of the very best tech concerns, presenting a huge opportunity to investors.</p><p>Case in point is consumer electronic giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>, whose stock is down nearly 24% this year at $136.13 a share. The drop in AAPL stock does not reflect thevaluation of the companyor its earnings, which have remained robust despite some headwinds in terms of manufacturing in China and global supply chain disruptions.</p><p>At the end of April, Apple reported quarterly results that showed its revenue grew nearly 9% year-over-year during this year’s first quarter. The company also announced plans to buy back $90 billion of its own stock. Plus, the company has continued to announce a raft of product upgrades and new services in recent months, including a buy now, pay later feature that moves Apple further into the finance space.</p><p>By almost every measure, Apple continues to fire on all cylinders. This helps explain why Warren Buffettadded to his position in AAPL stockduring this year’s first quarter as the price fell, buying an additional $600 million worth of shares.</p><p>“Unfortunately the stock went back up, so I stopped. Otherwise who knows how much we would have bought?” Buffett said at his company <b>Berkshire Hathaway’s</b> annual meeting in early May.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">Ford</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a5cb4e3b98e41f8ea8302a8251375c6\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Speaking of great American companies whose stock is available at fire sale prices, how about automotive powerhouse <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">Ford</a>? Year to date, F stock is down 45% to $11.45 a share. This is after the Detroit automaker’s stock ran up more than 100% in 2021 to hit a 52-week high of $25.87.</p><p>The decline in recent months has been mostly due toglobal supply chain issuesthat are impacting all automakers, and concerns that a global economic recession could lead consumers to put off big ticket purchases such as a new vehicle. However, these issues are temporary and shouldn’t get in the way of Ford’s long-term transition to electric vehicles.</p><p>Already, Ford is rolling out electric versions of its most popular vehicles, the F-150 pick-up truck, that hastopped the North American sales chartsevery year since 1976, and its iconic Mustang muscle car. The electric F-150 truck already has more than 200,000 preorders. And it is just one of the electric vehicles Ford is set to release as the company aggressively moves tochallenge rival <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla</a> as the world’s leading electric vehicle manufacturer.</p><p>To that end, Ford recently announced plans to invest $3.7 billion in its development of electric vehicles, which is on top of the $11.4 billion it had already committed. The money is expected to create more than 6,000 unionized manufacturing jobs in states such as Michigan, Ohio and Missouri. Ford is also in the process of building new battery manufacturing facilities in Tennessee and Kentucky. The money spent on Ford’s electric future should benefit shareholders over the long-term.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AXP\">American Express</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0dca58551f022a03f21829f8d1565231\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Credit card giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AXP\">American Express</a> has proven to be a reliable investment through good times and bad. In the past five years, AXP stock has gained approximately 75%, and risen 1,075% since the low point of the 2008-09 financial crisis. Yet, at its current share price of $141.95, American Express stock is only slightly above its 52-week low, making it as creaming buy for investors who have a long time horizon.</p><p>At the start of this year, American Express stock was near $200, and most analysts see itclimbing back to that levelonce the current market downturn reverses. The lowest estimate on the stock is currently $146 a share, or nearly two bucks higher than where it’s currently trading.</p><p>Like all financial companies, American Express’ earnings should be positively impacted as interest rates rise, enabling it to charge higher rates on the credit cards and other loan vehicles it issues.</p><p>Wells Fargo recently named AXP stock a top pick, noting that “The shares are trading at 14 times our 2023 earnings estimate. [That’s] well below the 18 times we believe is warranted for this high return on equity business.”</p><p>Additionally, American Express enjoys more affluent card members than rival credit card issuers, which Wells Fargo says brings with it lucrative partners in the form of hotels, airlines and various retailers.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d8c777beef9fcbe72151403c6646024\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a> recentlysplit its stock on a 20-for-1 basis, bringing the price down to $123 a share from more than $2,000 previously. But in the days immediately following the split, AMZN stock fell to a fresh 52-week low of $101.26 a share, pushing the stock to its most affordable level in more than a decade.</p><p>Down over 34% this year, Amazon’s stock is now trading at $109.65, only slightly above its low point over the past 12 months. This gives investors an opportunity to own a piece of the world’s biggest e-commerce company on the cheap and benefit hugely when the stock inevitably recovers and rises again.</p><p>Like virtually every company on this list, Amazon is struggling with issues that include wage inflation, supply chain snarls, and rising interest rates that are slowing consumer spending. But none of these problems is unique to Amazon and they will pass eventually. And coming out of the pandemic, Amazon is proving to be a stronger and more diversified company. Consider thate-commerce salesare forecast to exceed more than $1 trillion in the U.S. this year, and that Amazon controls 40% of the market.</p><p>The company also continues to benefit from its Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing unit, which last year represented more than 70% of its operating income. Amazon currently holds a 33% share of the global cloud computing market, and growing.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">Disney</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40fc87bdcbed7930885ce7e4e62c9016\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Shares of the world’s biggest entertainment company are currently changing hands at $94.34 a share. The last time <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">Disney</a> stock was that low was immediately after the<b>World Health Organization</b>(WHO) declared Covid-19 a global pandemic and markets around the world crashed.</p><p>Prior to that, you have to go back to early 2015 to find the last time shares of the Mouse House traded around $95. Disney stock is currentlydown 40% on the year, and 50% below its 52-week high of $187.58. The selloff has been partly due to broader market volatility and partly due to concerns that subscriber growth is slowing on the Disney+ streaming platform.</p><p>However, the naysayers are neglecting to factor in the strong box office performances from several theatrically released Disney films in recent months. Pixar animated movie<i>Lightyear</i>just debuted in thenumber one spotat the global box office with a weekend haul of $85.6 million. That follows the$942.48 million total earnedby Marvel’s<i>Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness</i>.</p><p>Other highly anticipated movies are on their way to the big screen in coming months, including<i>Thor: Love and Thunder</i>and<i>Pinocchio</i>. Plus, this summer marks the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began that all Disney theme parks will be fully open with no capacity restrictions. Add in the company’s cruise ships and branded merchandise, and it’s easy to see that Disney is more than a streaming platform.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa9e8450692c602e82bc1425f44efe56\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Shares of shipping and logistics giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FDX\">FedEx</a> recently got a big boost after the company announced that it isboosting its quarterly dividend by 53%. That news immediately sent FDX stock up 14%, its biggest one-day gain since 1986. Yet despite the jump higher, Federal Express’ stock remains down 12% on the year at $227.43 a share.</p><p>The company’s stock has been in investor jail since management warned that shipments are slowing coming out of the pandemic. But shareholders shouldn’t be overly concerned. Especially ones who can afford to be patient with the stock.</p><p>The company is clearly making shareholders a priority. In addition to the massive dividend increase, which takes the quarterly payout to $1.15 a share, FedEx also announced that it is adding “total shareholder return” as a performance metric to its executive compensation program. This is on top of the$5 billion share repurchase programthe company announced last December.</p><p>The renewed focus on shareholder returns comes as FedEx founder Fred Smithtransitions to the role of executive chairmanand is replaced as chief executive officer (CEO) by Raj Subramaniam. The leadership transition, coupled with the depressed price of FDX stock, presents a nice entry point for investors.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BRK.B\">Berkshire Hathaway</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b48ca8d929e698b94adc316bcf179dc1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Given the outsized influence Warren Buffett continues to exert on markets and investors, it is fitting to include his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, on this list. Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock is down 10% year to date at $268.55 per share. That’s better than the 23% decline in the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, BRK.B stock is now25% below its 52-week highof $362.10 and only slightly above its 52-week low of $265.68 a share. This presents a great entry point for investors and an opportunity to own shares of one of the most successful companies in U.S. history.</p><p>A holding company, Berkshire Hathaway owns many companies outright, ranging from railroads and insurers to the Dairy Queen fast food restaurant chain and Fruit of the Loom underwear maker.</p><p>Berkshire also owns avast portfolio of stocksthat includes many of the names on this list, such as Apple, American Express and Amazon. The company’s portfolio currently totals more than $300 billion and that is with this year’s market decline. However, Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio has consistently beaten the results of the S&P 500. Between 1999 and 2020, Berkshireoutperformed the benchmark S&P 500in 12 years.</p><p>The company’s track record is even more impressive the further back one goes. Investors could do worse than throw their lot in with Warren Buffett.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>7 Stocks to Buy Right Now</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\">\n7 Stocks to Buy Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-26 08:50 GMT+8 <a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stocks of these companies are screaming buys at their current depressed prices.Apple: A leading and highly profitable tech company that continues to innovate.Ford: An automotive powerhouse whose ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2022/06/7-stocks-to-buy-right-now/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1117405935","content_text":"Stocks of these companies are screaming buys at their current depressed prices.Apple: A leading and highly profitable tech company that continues to innovate.Ford: An automotive powerhouse whose transition to electric vehicles is proceeding full steam ahead.American Express: A top credit card issuer whose earnings should be positively impacted by higher interest rates.Amazon: The world's biggest e-commerce company just split its stock on a 20-for-1 basis, making them more affordable.Disney: The biggest entertainment company in the world is seeing big returns from its theatrically released films and theme parks.FedEx: The shipping and logistics giant just raised its quarterly dividend by 53% as it focuses on shareholder returns.Berkshire Hathaway: The company run by Warren Buffett continues to be a reliable bet in good times and bad.The current market selloff, while scary, presents an enormous berth of stocks to buy for investors.

But in the days immediately following the split, AMZN stock fell to a fresh 52-week low of $101.26 a share, pushing the stock to its most affordable level in more than a decade.Down over 34% this year, Amazon’s stock is now trading at $109.65, only slightly above its low point over the past 12 months. This gives investors an opportunity to own a piece of the world’s biggest e-commerce company on the cheap and benefit hugely when the stock inevitably recovers and rises again.Like virtually every company on this list, Amazon is struggling with issues that include wage inflation, supply chain snarls, and rising interest rates that are slowing consumer spending. But none of these problems is unique to Amazon and they will pass eventually. And coming out of the pandemic, Amazon is proving to be a stronger and more diversified company. Consider thate-commerce salesare forecast to exceed more than $1 trillion in the U.S. this year, and that Amazon controls 40% of the market.The company also continues to benefit from its Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing unit, which last year represented more than 70% of its operating income. Amazon currently holds a 33% share of the global cloud computing market, and growing.DisneyShares of the world’s biggest entertainment company are currently changing hands at $94.34 a share. The last time Disney stock was that low was immediately after theWorld Health Organization(WHO) declared Covid-19 a global pandemic and markets around the world crashed.Prior to that, you have to go back to early 2015 to find the last time shares of the Mouse House traded around $95. Disney stock is currentlydown 40% on the year, and 50% below its 52-week high of $187.58. The selloff has been partly due to broader market volatility and partly due to concerns that subscriber growth is slowing on the Disney+ streaming platform.However, the naysayers are neglecting to factor in the strong box office performances from several theatrically released Disney films in recent months. Pixar animated movieLightyearjust debuted in thenumber one spotat the global box office with a weekend haul of $85.6 million. That follows the$942.48 million total earnedby Marvel’sDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.Other highly anticipated movies are on their way to the big screen in coming months, includingThor: Love and ThunderandPinocchio. Plus, this summer marks the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began that all Disney theme parks will be fully open with no capacity restrictions. Add in the company’s cruise ships and branded merchandise, and it’s easy to see that Disney is more than a streaming platform.FedExShares of shipping and logistics giant FedEx recently got a big boost after the company announced that it isboosting its quarterly dividend by 53%. That news immediately sent FDX stock up 14%, its biggest one-day gain since 1986. Yet despite the jump higher, Federal Express’ stock remains down 12% on the year at $227.43 a share.The company’s stock has been in investor jail since management warned that shipments are slowing coming out of the pandemic. But shareholders shouldn’t be overly concerned. Especially ones who can afford to be patient with the stock.The company is clearly making shareholders a priority. In addition to the massive dividend increase, which takes the quarterly payout to $1.15 a share, FedEx also announced that it is adding “total shareholder return” as a performance metric to its executive compensation program. This is on top of the$5 billion share repurchase programthe company announced last December.The renewed focus on shareholder returns comes as FedEx founder Fred Smithtransitions to the role of executive chairmanand is replaced as chief executive officer (CEO) by Raj Subramaniam. The leadership transition, coupled with the depressed price of FDX stock, presents a nice entry point for investors.Berkshire HathawayGiven the outsized influence Warren Buffett continues to exert on markets and investors, it is fitting to include his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, on this list. Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock is down 10% year to date at $268.55 per share. That’s better than the 23% decline in the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, BRK.B stock is now25% below its 52-week highof $362.10 and only slightly above its 52-week low of $265.68 a share. This presents a great entry point for investors and an opportunity to own shares of one of the most successful companies in U.S. history.A holding company, Berkshire Hathaway owns many companies outright, ranging from railroads and insurers to the Dairy Queen fast food restaurant chain and Fruit of the Loom underwear maker.Berkshire also owns avast portfolio of stocksthat includes many of the names on this list, such as Apple, American Express and Amazon. The company’s portfolio currently totals more than $300 billion and that is with this year’s market decline. However, Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio has consistently beaten the results of the S&P 500. Between 1999 and 2020, Berkshireoutperformed the benchmark S&P 500in 12 years.The company’s track record is even more impressive the further back one goes. Investors could do worse than throw their lot in with Warren Buffett.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":142,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9999532643,"gmtCreate":1660548926985,"gmtModify":1676534065782,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9999532643","repostId":"1118303564","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1118303564","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660546996,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118303564?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-15 15:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Options Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118303564","media":"Investopedia","summary":"KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often st","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY TAKEAWAYS</b></p><ul><li>Options trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.</li><li>Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their downside and hedge market risk.</li><li>Here we look at four such strategies: long calls, long puts, covered calls, protective puts, and straddles.</li><li>Options trading can be complex, so be sure to understand the risks and rewards involved before diving in.</li></ul><p>Options are a form of derivative contract that gives buyers of the contracts (the option holders) the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell a security at a chosen price at some point in the future. Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.</p><p>Options are generally divided into "call" and "put" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to <i>buy</i> the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to <i>sell</i> the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.</p><p>Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.</p><p><b>Buying Calls (Long Calls)</b></p><p>There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are "bullish" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit risk</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising prices</li></ul><p>Options are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.</p><p><b>Tip: </b>A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.</p><p>Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>The trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed43525aed99dba37e990ddd8a9e733b\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Buying Puts (Long Puts)</b></p><p>If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right to<i>sell</i>the underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategy</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling prices</li></ul><p>A put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Say that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong. Instead, you can buy the $50 put for a premium of $2.00. If the stock does not fall below $50, or if indeed it rises, the most you will lose is the $2.00 premium.</p><p>However, if you are right and the stock drops all the way to $45, you would make $3 ($50 minus $45. less the $2 premium).</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>The potential loss on a long put is limited to the premium paid for the options. The maximum profit from the position is capped because the underlying price cannot drop below zero, but as with a long call option, the put option leverages the trader's return.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f638a5e4f684842b15ec2bd01016b96\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Covered Calls</b></p><p>Unlike the long call or long put, a covered call is a strategy that is overlaid onto an existing long position in the underlying asset. It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:</p><ul><li>Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premium</li><li>Are willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protection</li></ul><p>A covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.</p><p>If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or "called away"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).</p><p>However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/060c4075ba84fa8406865044327bb21a\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Protective Puts</b></p><p>A protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.</p><p>Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.</p><p>If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>The trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b1cae54dd9829363240190149f81ae7\" tg-width=\"884\" tg-height=\"487\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).</p><p><b>Long Straddles</b></p><p>Buying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.</p><p>Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Consider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.</p><p>The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>A long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it. Since it involves two options, however, it will cost more than either a call or put by itself. The maximum reward is theoretically unlimited to the upside and is bounded to the downside by the strike price (e.g., if you own a $20 straddle and the stock price goes to zero, you would make a max. of $20).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/99417c09afae347175e4c7c0a2b17fcd\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Some Basic Other Options Strategies</b></p><p>The strategies outlined here are straightforward and can be employed by most novice traders or investors. There are, however, more nuanced strategies than simply buying calls or puts. While we discuss many of these types of strategies elsewhere, here is just a brief list of some other basic options positions that would be suitable for those comfortable with the ones discussed above:</p><ul><li><b>Married put strategy:</b> Similar to a protective put, themarried putinvolves buying anat-the-money (ATM)put option in an amount to cover an existing long position in the stock. In this way, it mimics a call option (sometimes called asynthetic call).</li><li><b>Protective collar strategy:</b> With aprotective collar, an investor who holds a long position in the underlying buys an out-of-the-money (i.e., downside) put option, while at the same time writing an out-of-the-money (upside) call option for the same stock.</li><li><b>Long strangle strategy:</b> Similar to the straddle, the buyer of astranglegoes long on an out-of-the-money call option and a put option at the same time. They will have the same expiration date, but they have different strike prices: The put strike price should be below the call strike price. This involves a lower outlay of premium than a straddle but also requires the stock to move either higher to the upside or lower to the downside in order to be profitable.</li><li><b>Vertical Spreads</b>: A vertical spread involves the simultaneous buying and selling of options of the same type (i.e., either puts or calls) and expiry, but at different strike prices. These can be constructed as either bull or bear spreads, which will profit when the market rises or falls, respectively. Spreads are less costly that a long call or long put since you are also receiving the options premium from the one you sold. However, this also limits your potential upside to the width between the strikes.</li></ul><p><b>Advantages and Disadvantages of Trading Options</b></p><p>The biggest advantage to buying options is that you have great upside potential with losses limited only to the option's premium. However, this can also be a drawback since options will expire worthless if the stock does not move enough to be in-the-money. This means that buying a lot of out-of-the-money options can be costly.</p><p>Options can be very useful as a source of leverage and risk hedging. For example, a bullish investor who wishes to invest $1,000 in a company could potentially earn a far greater return by purchasing $1,000 worth of call options on that firm, as compared to buying $1,000 of that company’s shares. In this sense, the call options provide the investor with a way to leverage their position by increasing their buying power. On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.</p><p>The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions.

Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.Options are generally divided into \"call\" and \"put\" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to buy the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to sell the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.Buying Calls (Long Calls)There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:Are \"bullish\" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit riskWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising pricesOptions are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.Tip: A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.ExampleSuppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.Risk/rewardThe trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Buying Puts (Long Puts)If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right tosellthe underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategyWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling pricesA put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.ExampleSay that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong. Instead, you can buy the $50 put for a premium of $2.00. If the stock does not fall below $50, or if indeed it rises, the most you will lose is the $2.00 premium.However, if you are right and the stock drops all the way to $45, you would make $3 ($50 minus $45. less the $2 premium).Risk/rewardThe potential loss on a long put is limited to the premium paid for the options. The maximum profit from the position is capped because the underlying price cannot drop below zero, but as with a long call option, the put option leverages the trader's return.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Covered CallsUnlike the long call or long put, a covered call is a strategy that is overlaid onto an existing long position in the underlying asset. It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premiumAre willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protectionA covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.ExampleSuppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or \"called away\"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.Risk/rewardIf the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Protective PutsA protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.ExampleThe trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.Risk/rewardIf the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).Long StraddlesBuying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.ExampleConsider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.Risk/rewardA long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it. Since it involves two options, however, it will cost more than either a call or put by itself. The maximum reward is theoretically unlimited to the upside and is bounded to the downside by the strike price (e.g., if you own a $20 straddle and the stock price goes to zero, you would make a max. of $20).Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Some Basic Other Options StrategiesThe strategies outlined here are straightforward and can be employed by most novice traders or investors. There are, however, more nuanced strategies than simply buying calls or puts. While we discuss many of these types of strategies elsewhere, here is just a brief list of some other basic options positions that would be suitable for those comfortable with the ones discussed above:Married put strategy: Similar to a protective put, themarried putinvolves buying anat-the-money (ATM)put option in an amount to cover an existing long position in the stock. In this way, it mimics a call option (sometimes called asynthetic call).Protective collar strategy: With aprotective collar, an investor who holds a long position in the underlying buys an out-of-the-money (i.e., downside) put option, while at the same time writing an out-of-the-money (upside) call option for the same stock.Long strangle strategy: Similar to the straddle, the buyer of astranglegoes long on an out-of-the-money call option and a put option at the same time. They will have the same expiration date, but they have different strike prices: The put strike price should be below the call strike price. This involves a lower outlay of premium than a straddle but also requires the stock to move either higher to the upside or lower to the downside in order to be profitable.Vertical Spreads: A vertical spread involves the simultaneous buying and selling of options of the same type (i.e., either puts or calls) and expiry, but at different strike prices. These can be constructed as either bull or bear spreads, which will profit when the market rises or falls, respectively. Spreads are less costly that a long call or long put since you are also receiving the options premium from the one you sold. However, this also limits your potential upside to the width between the strikes.Advantages and Disadvantages of Trading OptionsThe biggest advantage to buying options is that you have great upside potential with losses limited only to the option's premium. However, this can also be a drawback since options will expire worthless if the stock does not move enough to be in-the-money. This means that buying a lot of out-of-the-money options can be costly.Options can be very useful as a source of leverage and risk hedging. For example, a bullish investor who wishes to invest $1,000 in a company could potentially earn a far greater return by purchasing $1,000 worth of call options on that firm, as compared to buying $1,000 of that company’s shares. In this sense, the call options provide the investor with a way to leverage their position by increasing their buying power. On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions. Failing to do so can lead to devastating losses.There is also a large risk selling options in that you take on theoretically unlimited risk with profits limited to the premium (price) received for the option.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":671,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9908191004,"gmtCreate":1659331304308,"gmtModify":1676536288524,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9908191004","repostId":"2255503574","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2255503574","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1659321761,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2255503574?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-01 10:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"1 Reason to Get Excited About Stock Splits and 1 Reason to Be Cautious","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2255503574","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Companies often undergo stock splits after periods of notable success boost their share prices. But that's not the only reason a business might chose to conduct one.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Stock splits have been making a lot of headlines in the investing world recently. <b>Amazon </b>(AMZN 10.36%), <b>Google</b> (GOOG 1.79%), <b>Tesla</b>, (TSLA 5.79%), and <b>Shopify</b> (SHOP -3.01%) are just a few of the major names that have announced them in 2022.</p><p>Research from the <i>Journal of Banking and Finance</i> shows that stock splits historically have had a positive impact on short-term returns. So should you get excited about companies that are splitting their stock? I believe there's one reason to be optimistic about these events, but another serious reason to approach them with caution.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a4b9499ce5078769cc19e18a9d07ee6\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><h2><b>What is a stock split?</b></h2><p>First, let's define what a stock split is and why a company might want to perform one.</p><p>As a company's share price goes up, eventually it may reach a level where average investors will struggle to afford even a single share. <b>Amazon</b>, for example, was recently trading above $2,000 before it underwent a 20-to-1 stock split, reducing its share price to around $100. Shareholders were given 19 additional shares for every one they owned, and the value of those shares was reduced proportionally, leaving the company's market cap unchanged.</p><p>Lower share prices put those stocks more easily in reach of retail investors. One of the main goals of stock splits is to boost liquidity, under the theory that a more reasonable price will entice more investors to buy the stock.</p><h2><b>Stock splits can indicate a company is firing on all cylinders</b></h2><p>Let's be 100% clear: A stock split should not be the reason you invest in any company. This financial maneuver does absolutely nothing to improve the long-term performance of a business.</p><p>That said, I like to see a company undergo a stock split because on most occasions, it follows a considerable share price rise, and thus typically indicates the company has probably been performing quite well.</p><p>For example, since Amazon's last split in 1999, its stock price has risen by more than 3,000%. When a stock rises by that magnitude over 23 years, it's usually because the underlying business has been executing incredibly.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/339dceaee43033654adac470f7d490e8\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>AMZN data by YCharts</p><p><b>Alphabet</b> -- the parent company of Google -- split its stock in 2014, and rose nearly 300% since then to over $2,000 per share. That prompted its 20-to-1 split this month.</p><h2><b>Look out for companies taking advantage of stock split mania</b></h2><p>Sometimes struggling companies try to leverage the investor excitement that stock splits generate to boost their share prices. For example, consider <b>GameStop</b>'s (GME 0.50%) recent 4-to-1 split.</p><p>The niche retailer's stock price oscillations made headlines in 2020 as retail investors conducted a short squeeze that sent its share price soaring. Other short squeeze attempts followed, but since it peaked in January 2021, the meme stock is down by more than 60%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80813994f41e16b98f8bb0f6dcd6b404\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>GME data by YCharts</p><p>It's possible GameStop management's motivation for the recent split was to attract more retail traders in hopes of sparking another squeeze. Or maybe the low share price of around $30 will confuse investors into thinking it's undervalued. But the important thing to remember is absolutely nothing has changed about GameStop's struggling business. Its financials are still a mess, and its valuation remains quite pricey at a price-to-book ratio of 7.5.</p><p>Investors should be on the lookout when struggling businesses try to capitalize on stock split mania to boost their share prices. It's usually a trap.</p><h2><b>Remember the pizza analogy </b></h2><p>The easiest way to think about stock splits is to imagine a pizza.

Amazon (AMZN 10.36%), Google (GOOG 1.79%), Tesla, (TSLA 5.79%), and Shopify (SHOP -3.01%) are just a few of the major names that have announced them in 2022.Research from the Journal of Banking and Finance shows that stock splits historically have had a positive impact on short-term returns. So should you get excited about companies that are splitting their stock? I believe there's one reason to be optimistic about these events, but another serious reason to approach them with caution.What is a stock split?First, let's define what a stock split is and why a company might want to perform one.As a company's share price goes up, eventually it may reach a level where average investors will struggle to afford even a single share. Amazon, for example, was recently trading above $2,000 before it underwent a 20-to-1 stock split, reducing its share price to around $100. Shareholders were given 19 additional shares for every one they owned, and the value of those shares was reduced proportionally, leaving the company's market cap unchanged.Lower share prices put those stocks more easily in reach of retail investors. One of the main goals of stock splits is to boost liquidity, under the theory that a more reasonable price will entice more investors to buy the stock.Stock splits can indicate a company is firing on all cylindersLet's be 100% clear: A stock split should not be the reason you invest in any company. This financial maneuver does absolutely nothing to improve the long-term performance of a business.That said, I like to see a company undergo a stock split because on most occasions, it follows a considerable share price rise, and thus typically indicates the company has probably been performing quite well.For example, since Amazon's last split in 1999, its stock price has risen by more than 3,000%. When a stock rises by that magnitude over 23 years, it's usually because the underlying business has been executing incredibly.AMZN data by YChartsAlphabet -- the parent company of Google -- split its stock in 2014, and rose nearly 300% since then to over $2,000 per share. That prompted its 20-to-1 split this month.Look out for companies taking advantage of stock split maniaSometimes struggling companies try to leverage the investor excitement that stock splits generate to boost their share prices. For example, consider GameStop's (GME 0.50%) recent 4-to-1 split.The niche retailer's stock price oscillations made headlines in 2020 as retail investors conducted a short squeeze that sent its share price soaring. Other short squeeze attempts followed, but since it peaked in January 2021, the meme stock is down by more than 60%.GME data by YChartsIt's possible GameStop management's motivation for the recent split was to attract more retail traders in hopes of sparking another squeeze. Or maybe the low share price of around $30 will confuse investors into thinking it's undervalued. But the important thing to remember is absolutely nothing has changed about GameStop's struggling business. Its financials are still a mess, and its valuation remains quite pricey at a price-to-book ratio of 7.5.Investors should be on the lookout when struggling businesses try to capitalize on stock split mania to boost their share prices. It's usually a trap.Remember the pizza analogy The easiest way to think about stock splits is to imagine a pizza. No matter how many slices you cut the pie into, the overall amount of pizza remains the same size.It's the same with companies. You can divide the stock as much as you'd like, but the market cap does not change. Neither do the underlying business's fundamentals.While it's nice to see your portfolio's big winners split their shares, ultimately, you would be better off focusing on the quality of the underlying business when making investment decisions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":482,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9079299784,"gmtCreate":1657201105549,"gmtModify":1676535968064,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9079299784","repostId":"1155475036","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155475036","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":1657200763,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155475036?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-07 21:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow Climbs 200 Points As Wall Street Looks to Build on Recent Gains","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155475036","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks rose on Thursday as Wall Street looked to extend a modest winning streak.The Dow Jones I","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stocks rose on Thursday as Wall Street looked to extend a modest winning streak.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average futures gained 236 points, or 0.8%.

Why Its Earnings Could Trigger a Rebound","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2248213848","media":"Barrons","summary":"Investors are feeling a little jittery about Apple stock, and for logical reasons. The company's Jun","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Investors are feeling a little jittery about Apple stock, and for logical reasons. The company's June quarter earnings report is less than four weeks away, and there are reasons to worry.</p><p>In particular, there are signs of slowing demand for both smartphones and personal computers, especially -- but not exclusively -- in China. After the close of trading Thursday, the memory chip company Micron Technology(ticker: MU) posted May quarter results that were about in line with estimates, but projected August quarter revenue sharply below the Street's consensus forecasts. The new forecast largely reflects a sharp falloff in demand for PCs and smartphones in China: Micron said weakness in China consumer tech end-markets trimmed its sales guidance by about 10%.</p><p>Street consensus estimates call for Apple to post June quarter revenue of $82.4 billion, with profits of $1.16 a share. When the company reported March quarter results, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri had cautioned that Apple expects a $4 billion to $8 billion hit to top-line growth in the June quarter from supply constraints, along with nearly 3 percentage points of drag from unfavorable foreign exchange rates, with a 1.5 percentage point hit from the suspension of sales in Russia.</p><p>In a research note on Friday, J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee makes the case that Apple can hit the current Street consensus for the quarter. Normally, that wouldn't be saying much, but he contends that the buy side expects an earnings miss due to slowing consumer spending and wider-than-projected foreign-exchange headwinds.</p><p>Chatterjee says better supply dynamics in the quarter will overwhelm modest demand weakness and the wider-than-forecast drag from currency, which he estimates will be 4.5 percentage points.</p><p>The analyst is a little more concerned about the medium-term, though. Chatterjee sees iPhone and iPad sales as vulnerable to softening consumer sentiment; he projects iPhone sales in the second half of calendar 2022 will be down about 4% from a year earlier. But he's still bullish on the company's long-term outlook, and keep his Overweight rating and $200 price target.</p><p>In particular, he says Apple is well-positioned to outperform the market in almost any macroeconomic environment. A recession, he writes, would "showcase resilient iPhone demand driven by replacement cycles," and would be buoyed by a substantial earnings contribution from services. And if the economy stabilizes, he adds, Apple could see upside from a rapid consumer rebound.</p><p>Apple shares rose 1.6% on Friday.

The company's June quarter earnings report is less than four weeks away, and there are reasons to worry.In particular, there are signs of slowing demand for both smartphones and personal computers, especially -- but not exclusively -- in China. After the close of trading Thursday, the memory chip company Micron Technology(ticker: MU) posted May quarter results that were about in line with estimates, but projected August quarter revenue sharply below the Street's consensus forecasts. The new forecast largely reflects a sharp falloff in demand for PCs and smartphones in China: Micron said weakness in China consumer tech end-markets trimmed its sales guidance by about 10%.Street consensus estimates call for Apple to post June quarter revenue of $82.4 billion, with profits of $1.16 a share. When the company reported March quarter results, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri had cautioned that Apple expects a $4 billion to $8 billion hit to top-line growth in the June quarter from supply constraints, along with nearly 3 percentage points of drag from unfavorable foreign exchange rates, with a 1.5 percentage point hit from the suspension of sales in Russia.In a research note on Friday, J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee makes the case that Apple can hit the current Street consensus for the quarter. Normally, that wouldn't be saying much, but he contends that the buy side expects an earnings miss due to slowing consumer spending and wider-than-projected foreign-exchange headwinds.Chatterjee says better supply dynamics in the quarter will overwhelm modest demand weakness and the wider-than-forecast drag from currency, which he estimates will be 4.5 percentage points.The analyst is a little more concerned about the medium-term, though. Chatterjee sees iPhone and iPad sales as vulnerable to softening consumer sentiment; he projects iPhone sales in the second half of calendar 2022 will be down about 4% from a year earlier. But he's still bullish on the company's long-term outlook, and keep his Overweight rating and $200 price target.In particular, he says Apple is well-positioned to outperform the market in almost any macroeconomic environment. A recession, he writes, would \"showcase resilient iPhone demand driven by replacement cycles,\" and would be buoyed by a substantial earnings contribution from services. And if the economy stabilizes, he adds, Apple could see upside from a rapid consumer rebound.Apple shares rose 1.6% on Friday. The stock is off 12% since the company's last earnings report and down 22% for the year to date. The company remains the single largest U.S. company by market cap, with a valuation of $2.2 trillion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9048821443,"gmtCreate":1656196737782,"gmtModify":1676535781306,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4090392463899480","authorIdStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9048821443","repostId":"1192265091","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192265091","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1656114377,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1192265091?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-25 07:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Get Ready for a Rally in S&P 500","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192265091","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"Equity strategists at Stifel think the S&P 500 could surge higher this summer, led by cyclical growt","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Equity strategists at Stifel think the S&P 500 could surge higher this summer, led by cyclical growth stocks including tech, despite being in a secular or long-term bear market.

However, not all of these companies are necessarily a buy at the same time. Instead, some of them usually tend to be better value picks than others at any specific time, while risks to their business models also change over time. In this report, we'll highlight 5 Dividend Aristocrats that are attractive right here, and 5 others that may be better avoided for now.</p><h2>Better Than Most In Times Of Crisis</h2><p>The world is currently battling several crises, among them a war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, supply chain issues and disruptions around the globe, and inflation, driven in part by high energy prices. Equity markets have dropped quite a lot so far this year, which is why investors may want to search for safe-haven assets that have a history of outperforming during market crashes. The Dividend Aristocrats, as a group, have done exactly that in the past:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d28416c3e11117ad7443c06f190239c5\" tg-width=\"291\" tg-height=\"662\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Article from Seeking Alpha author Ploutos</p><p></p><p>In the above table, we see that the Dividend Aristocrats as a group have outperformed the broad market in many years, with the outperformance oftentimes being particularly strong during times when the market dropped. This includes the dot.com crash, where Dividend Aristocrats rose in the 2000-2022 time frame, and the 2008 crash when the Dividend Aristocrats handsomely outperformed the market. As a group, Dividend Aristocrats thus have merit as a below-average risk choice for times when markets are experiencing headwinds.</p><p>Investors can go with the Dividend Aristocrats (NOBL), or they can opt for individual stocks in this group, which has the benefit of avoiding stocks that are too expensive. Usually, some of the stocks in this group trade above fair value at any given time, while others are trading below fair value. When one buys the ETF, one naturally buys both undervalued and overvalued stocks, whereas opting for individual stocks allows investors to be pickier with what they buy at a specific time.</p><h2>5 Dividend Aristocrats That May Better Be Avoided Today</h2><h4>1: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMT\">Walmart</a></h4><p>Walmart (WMT) is not a bad company at all. It has delivered compelling returns for those that have bought early on, and it is resilient versus recessions. The company also was resilient during the pandemic, which isn't too surprising, as consumers still needed to buy food and other staples even during the lockdown phase.</p><p>But in the current environment, with inflation hurting consumer spending, while transportation costs for Walmart are soaring, the company is seeing its profitability come under pressure.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/929ce2b7e2db2cf60da63ca4d02f7abd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Walmart's forecasted earnings per share have declined in recent months, and more downward revisions could be coming if shipping rates, wages, etc. continue to increase Walmart's expenses. At the same time, Walmart is currently trading at a premium relative to the long-term median earnings multiple, which makes me believe that now is not yet a great time to enter a position.</p><h4>2: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TGT\">Target</a></h4><p>Target (TGT) is, like Walmart, a quality retailer. Like Walmart, it faces hefty headwinds from inflation, as it has had trouble passing on higher expenses to consumers. With wages rising, trucking becoming more expensive, and consumers potentially cutting back on some of the discretionary item purchases done at Target, 2022 will likely not be a great year for the retailer.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87b22c1a904757389996299dd196ed0d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Earnings per share estimates have dropped like a rock in recent months, from north of $14 to below $9, and there is no guarantee that there won't be further guidance cuts. The company is not really expensive in absolute terms but does still trade at a premium compared to the longer-term average. I thus do believe that waiting for EPS estimates to bottom out and/or for the valuation to drop to the longer-term average is a better idea compared to buying now.</p><h4>3: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLX\">Clorox</a></h4><p>Clorox (CLX) operates with a resilient business model. Demand for cleaning products isn't very cyclical, although consumers may opt for cheaper non-brand products during a recession or when inflation leads to higher living expenses. Clorox did perform reasonably well during the pandemic, but from a valuation perspective, shares are far from an enticing buy today.</p><p>Looking at earnings estimates for the current year and the valuation relative to the longer-term median, there are good reasons to avoid Clorox for now:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/14dfaf4e946450f17e92698d6b2c0081\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Issues when it comes to passing on higher costs have resulted in steep earnings per share estimate cuts, and Clorox has become quite expensive as a result of that. Today, shares are valued at 33x net profits, around 30% higher than the longer-term median. Waiting for a better entry price seems like an opportune move for those that are interested in owning this company.</p><h4>4: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MCD\">McDonald's</a></h4><p>McDonald's (MCD) is one of the best restaurant operators in the world and has been a strong long-term investment in the past. But with a recession becoming more likely, it is doubtful whether 2022 will be a strong year for the company, especially since a significant portion of its customers will likely feel the pinch from rising gasoline and energy prices especially hard. This will limit their ability to spend on dining out. At the same time, rising food prices, e.g. for beef or wheat, will lead to higher expenses on McDonald's side. The recovery from the pandemic that investors hoped for may thus be underwhelming this year.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53ed5207ec3f5214589b8a88d3b51809\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Earnings per share estimates have pulled back this year due to the aforementioned headwinds from inflation and a potential recession. At the same time, McDonald's trades slightly above the historic valuation norm, and at 25x net profits, its shares are also far from cheap in absolute terms. Waiting for a better entry point could pay off, I believe.</p><h4><b>5: Brown-Forman</b></h4><p>Brown-Forman (BF.A)(BF.B) is a leading alcohol/spirits company that has delivered attractive returns in the long run. But with inflation pressuring household spending, consumers will likely cut back on the purchases of higher-priced alcoholic beverages. At the same time, less dining out in a potential recession would lead to fewer alcohol sales at restaurants. Both of these trends aren't positive for Brown-Forman. Sales and profits will not fall off a cliff, as shown by past recessions during which Brown-Forman has remained profitable. But the near-term outlook is far from great, and yet, Brown-Forman trades at a rather high valuation. Based on current forecasts, Brown-Forman is valued at 35x forward earnings, which seems like a pricey valuation to pay for a consumer goods company that has a solid but not spectacular growth outlook. For reference, high-growth, high-quality tech companies such as Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) trade at lower valuations today. Would I like to buy Brown-Forman at 20x net profits? Absolutely. But I do not believe that buying shares at 35x net profits will be a great deal.</p><h2>5 Dividend Aristocrats That Are Attractively Valued Today</h2><h4>1: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ABBV\">AbbVie</a></h4><p>AbbVie (ABBV) has seen its shares pull back from recent highs, which has made its valuation decline to a more attractive level and which results in a higher initial dividend yield for those buying today. At $147 per share, AbbVie is valued at just 10.5x forward earnings while offering a dividend yield of 3.8%. The biopharma company will experience some headwinds from the patent expiration on Humira in the US next year, but that does not hurt the long-term growth outlook too much. AbbVie guides for combined Rinvoq and Skyrizi -- two drugs that seek to replace Humira -- sales of more than $15 billion in 2025, and peak sales of these two drugs are forecasted to be higher than Humira's peak sales. AbbVie points out that it has hit or beat its guidance for every quarter since the company went public, so investors can have some trust in what management is forecasting -- the company has a history of underpromising, not overpromising. With shares having pulled back from $180 to below $150, now could be a good time to add to a position in this high-yielding biopharma Dividend Aristocrat.</p><h4>2: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MO\">Altria</a></h4><p>Altria (MO) has dropped quite a lot in the very recent past, at least partially driven by the banning of JUUL vaping devices. Altria has a stake in JUUL, thus this will most likely result in an asset write-off on Altria's side in the upcoming quarterly report. But since this will be a non-cash item, investors don't have to worry about any danger to the company's dividend at all. In fact, JUUL wasn't profitable anyway, thus none of Altria's earnings power has vanished.</p><p>The fact that Altria has dropped to the low $40s on this news, which results in an earnings multiple of just 8.5 and which makes for a hefty 8.7% dividend yield provides investors with a compelling buying opportunity, I believe. Even if Altria were to never grow its earnings or dividend ever again, the dividend yield alone would provide reasonably attractive total returns. But with a dividend increase likely coming up this August, and with Altria delivering extremely consistent earnings per share growth in the past and likely also in the future, total returns of more than 10% are definitely possible here.</p><h4>3: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JNJ\">Johnson & Johnson</a></h4><p>Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is one of the lowest-risk stocks anyone could ever invest in. The company is well-diversified across three different industries, and none of those industries are cyclical: Pharma, medical tech, and consumer staples all perform reasonably well under almost any circumstances. On top of that, Johnson & Johnson is one of only two companies in the world that has a triple-A rating, meaning financial risks are ultra-low here. If rating agencies are correct, risks are lower compared to lending one's money to the U.S. government.</p><p>Quality usually has a price, which is why it is not too surprising to see that Johnson & Johnson has on average traded at a 22x earnings multiple over the last decade:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3cb8b792e00b35f6fb1def1f813e38f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Today, however, shares trade at a meaningful discount to that, as investors can buy JNJ at a 17x earnings multiple. The company has just raised its dividend, and the dividend yield is now 2.6%. That's not extremely high, but way more than what one can get from the broad market, while taking on way less risk at the same time -- an attractive combination, I believe.</p><h4>4: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a></h4><p>Chevron (CVX) is one of the global supermajors in the oil and gas industry. It owns vast upstream/production and downstream/refining & marketing assets. With significant exposure to liquified natural gas production and sales, the company benefits a lot from ultra-high natural gas prices in many markets around the world, such as Europe or parts of Asia.</p><p>Shares are up so far this year but have recently pulled back meaningfully from the highs around $180. Earnings will explode upwards this year, as high natural gas prices, high oil prices, and hefty refining margins make for a perfect combination to drive up profits at Chevron and its peers. From a valuation perspective, Chevron seems far from expensive:</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/49de3f301c7ad2a8150988d2aa000361\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>Shares have actually become less expensive over the last year, now trading at an enterprise value to EBITDA ratio of less than 5. This is also 30% below the longer-term median, suggesting that a big profit decline is already baked into the share price today. But if experts from Goldman Sachs (GS) and others are right and we are only in the early stages of a commodity supercycle, then profits may actually rise further in 2023 and beyond. In that case, Chevron could continue to deliver impressive returns between earnings growth, buybacks, and a 3.9% dividend yield.</p><h4>5: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ESS\">Essex Property Trust</a></h4><p>Essex Property Trust (ESS) is a residential real estate company that primarily invests in multifamily properties in major West Coast markets. Rising mortgage rates have made it much costlier for Americans to acquire homes, which should be a positive for rent demand. At the same time, Essex Property Trust has locked in cheap rates for many years, which means that high inflation helps it cut down debt in real terms, even before factoring in debt payments. Real estate prices have not yet declined meaningfully in the US, and it is not a sure thing whether that will happen as demand and input costs remain high. But ESS has already seen its shares drop from $360+ to the $250s, meaning investors are already pricing in a major real estate market decline without such a decline materializing so far.</p><p>Essex Property Trust's dividend yield is also at the upper end of the historic range when we back out the once-in-a-lifetime sale during the pandemic.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea1b0b8d6f8a9783ba1782d1adfd8f02\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>From a valuation perspective, Essex Property Trust thus looks like a better-than-average buy today. This is underlined by the 18x FFO multiple, which is not expensive for a residential property REIT such as ESS. Locking in a 3.3% yield with dividends that will in all likelihood continue to rise does not seem like a bad investment proposition at all.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>Dividend Aristocrats can be a nice addition to a portfolio, as they tend to outperform the broad market during times of trouble. It looks like that could come in handy in the coming months, as inflation, a potential recession, interest rate worries, and supply chain disruptions make for a tough macro environment.</p><p>Investors should not buy all Dividend Aristocrats before factoring in their exposure to these themes and their valuation, however. I do believe that some Dividend Aristocrats are more attractive than others today. I'd be keen to hear what you think about these picks or other ones with similar benefits and risks in the comment section.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>5 Dividend Aristocrats To Buy And 5 Dividend Aristocrats To Avoid</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n5 Dividend Aristocrats To Buy And 5 Dividend Aristocrats To Avoid\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-25 09:25 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4519987-5-dividend-aristocrats-buys-and-5-dividend-aristocrats-to-avoid><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Article ThesisIn times of market turmoil, Dividend Aristocrats, with their reliable income and proven resilience, can be good investments.

However, not all of these companies are necessarily a buy at the same time. Instead, some of them usually tend to be better value picks than others at any specific time, while risks to their business models also change over time. In this report, we'll highlight 5 Dividend Aristocrats that are attractive right here, and 5 others that may be better avoided for now.Better Than Most In Times Of CrisisThe world is currently battling several crises, among them a war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, supply chain issues and disruptions around the globe, and inflation, driven in part by high energy prices. Equity markets have dropped quite a lot so far this year, which is why investors may want to search for safe-haven assets that have a history of outperforming during market crashes. The Dividend Aristocrats, as a group, have done exactly that in the past:Article from Seeking Alpha author PloutosIn the above table, we see that the Dividend Aristocrats as a group have outperformed the broad market in many years, with the outperformance oftentimes being particularly strong during times when the market dropped. This includes the dot.com crash, where Dividend Aristocrats rose in the 2000-2022 time frame, and the 2008 crash when the Dividend Aristocrats handsomely outperformed the market. As a group, Dividend Aristocrats thus have merit as a below-average risk choice for times when markets are experiencing headwinds.Investors can go with the Dividend Aristocrats (NOBL), or they can opt for individual stocks in this group, which has the benefit of avoiding stocks that are too expensive. Usually, some of the stocks in this group trade above fair value at any given time, while others are trading below fair value. When one buys the ETF, one naturally buys both undervalued and overvalued stocks, whereas opting for individual stocks allows investors to be pickier with what they buy at a specific time.5 Dividend Aristocrats That May Better Be Avoided Today1: WalmartWalmart (WMT) is not a bad company at all. It has delivered compelling returns for those that have bought early on, and it is resilient versus recessions. The company also was resilient during the pandemic, which isn't too surprising, as consumers still needed to buy food and other staples even during the lockdown phase.But in the current environment, with inflation hurting consumer spending, while transportation costs for Walmart are soaring, the company is seeing its profitability come under pressure.Data by YChartsWalmart's forecasted earnings per share have declined in recent months, and more downward revisions could be coming if shipping rates, wages, etc. continue to increase Walmart's expenses. At the same time, Walmart is currently trading at a premium relative to the long-term median earnings multiple, which makes me believe that now is not yet a great time to enter a position.2: TargetTarget (TGT) is, like Walmart, a quality retailer. Like Walmart, it faces hefty headwinds from inflation, as it has had trouble passing on higher expenses to consumers. With wages rising, trucking becoming more expensive, and consumers potentially cutting back on some of the discretionary item purchases done at Target, 2022 will likely not be a great year for the retailer.Data by YChartsEarnings per share estimates have dropped like a rock in recent months, from north of $14 to below $9, and there is no guarantee that there won't be further guidance cuts. The company is not really expensive in absolute terms but does still trade at a premium compared to the longer-term average. I thus do believe that waiting for EPS estimates to bottom out and/or for the valuation to drop to the longer-term average is a better idea compared to buying now.3: CloroxClorox (CLX) operates with a resilient business model. Demand for cleaning products isn't very cyclical, although consumers may opt for cheaper non-brand products during a recession or when inflation leads to higher living expenses. Clorox did perform reasonably well during the pandemic, but from a valuation perspective, shares are far from an enticing buy today.Looking at earnings estimates for the current year and the valuation relative to the longer-term median, there are good reasons to avoid Clorox for now:Data by YChartsIssues when it comes to passing on higher costs have resulted in steep earnings per share estimate cuts, and Clorox has become quite expensive as a result of that. Today, shares are valued at 33x net profits, around 30% higher than the longer-term median. Waiting for a better entry price seems like an opportune move for those that are interested in owning this company.4: McDonald'sMcDonald's (MCD) is one of the best restaurant operators in the world and has been a strong long-term investment in the past. But with a recession becoming more likely, it is doubtful whether 2022 will be a strong year for the company, especially since a significant portion of its customers will likely feel the pinch from rising gasoline and energy prices especially hard. This will limit their ability to spend on dining out. At the same time, rising food prices, e.g. for beef or wheat, will lead to higher expenses on McDonald's side. The recovery from the pandemic that investors hoped for may thus be underwhelming this year.Data by YChartsEarnings per share estimates have pulled back this year due to the aforementioned headwinds from inflation and a potential recession. At the same time, McDonald's trades slightly above the historic valuation norm, and at 25x net profits, its shares are also far from cheap in absolute terms. Waiting for a better entry point could pay off, I believe.5: Brown-FormanBrown-Forman (BF.A)(BF.B) is a leading alcohol/spirits company that has delivered attractive returns in the long run. But with inflation pressuring household spending, consumers will likely cut back on the purchases of higher-priced alcoholic beverages. At the same time, less dining out in a potential recession would lead to fewer alcohol sales at restaurants. Both of these trends aren't positive for Brown-Forman. Sales and profits will not fall off a cliff, as shown by past recessions during which Brown-Forman has remained profitable. But the near-term outlook is far from great, and yet, Brown-Forman trades at a rather high valuation. Based on current forecasts, Brown-Forman is valued at 35x forward earnings, which seems like a pricey valuation to pay for a consumer goods company that has a solid but not spectacular growth outlook. For reference, high-growth, high-quality tech companies such as Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) trade at lower valuations today. Would I like to buy Brown-Forman at 20x net profits? Absolutely. But I do not believe that buying shares at 35x net profits will be a great deal.5 Dividend Aristocrats That Are Attractively Valued Today1: AbbVieAbbVie (ABBV) has seen its shares pull back from recent highs, which has made its valuation decline to a more attractive level and which results in a higher initial dividend yield for those buying today. At $147 per share, AbbVie is valued at just 10.5x forward earnings while offering a dividend yield of 3.8%. The biopharma company will experience some headwinds from the patent expiration on Humira in the US next year, but that does not hurt the long-term growth outlook too much. AbbVie guides for combined Rinvoq and Skyrizi -- two drugs that seek to replace Humira -- sales of more than $15 billion in 2025, and peak sales of these two drugs are forecasted to be higher than Humira's peak sales. AbbVie points out that it has hit or beat its guidance for every quarter since the company went public, so investors can have some trust in what management is forecasting -- the company has a history of underpromising, not overpromising. With shares having pulled back from $180 to below $150, now could be a good time to add to a position in this high-yielding biopharma Dividend Aristocrat.2: AltriaAltria (MO) has dropped quite a lot in the very recent past, at least partially driven by the banning of JUUL vaping devices. Altria has a stake in JUUL, thus this will most likely result in an asset write-off on Altria's side in the upcoming quarterly report. But since this will be a non-cash item, investors don't have to worry about any danger to the company's dividend at all. In fact, JUUL wasn't profitable anyway, thus none of Altria's earnings power has vanished.The fact that Altria has dropped to the low $40s on this news, which results in an earnings multiple of just 8.5 and which makes for a hefty 8.7% dividend yield provides investors with a compelling buying opportunity, I believe. Even if Altria were to never grow its earnings or dividend ever again, the dividend yield alone would provide reasonably attractive total returns. But with a dividend increase likely coming up this August, and with Altria delivering extremely consistent earnings per share growth in the past and likely also in the future, total returns of more than 10% are definitely possible here.3: Johnson & JohnsonJohnson & Johnson (JNJ) is one of the lowest-risk stocks anyone could ever invest in.
