closed at a","content":"<p>Some surprises among the small number of stocks that are down for 2021</p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 index closed at another all-time high on Wednesday, its 51st record this year. Success has been widespread, with 250 of the S&amp;P 500 outperforming the index as a whole. But there are always some stocks left behind, including the list of highly regarded names below.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FBNC\">First</a>, consider how well the S&amp;P 500 has been performing. It was up 20.8% for 2021 through Aug. 25, with dividends reinvested. That follows returns of 32.5% in 2020 and 31.5% in 2019. The index has returned 88.1% since the end of 2018. All performance figures in this article include reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p>If we even out the numbers, the S&amp;P 500 has returned 65% for three years, 128% for five years and 375% for 10 years, underlining the case for stocks as the ideal asset class for most long-term investors. Performance slips if we go out 15 years to cover the 2008 financial crisis, with a return of 367%.</p>\n<p>Stocks left behind in 2021 that may have great potential for investors</p>\n<p>Through Aug. 25, 58 of the S&amp;P 500 components were down for 2021.

This year, the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVZ\">Invesco</a> S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight ETF <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RSP\">$(RSP)$</a> has outperformed SPY and the S&amp;P 500:</p>\n<p>The weighted forward P/E ratio for the S&amp;P 500 is 21.1, according to FactSet.

Here's some advice: If you see any stock of interest here, do your own research to form your own opinion about the company's strategy and its long-term prospects.\nMarket-cap weighting is less important this year\nThe S&P 500 is weighted by market capitalization, which means its performance can be dominated by the largest stocks in the index.\nThe SPDR S&P 500 ETF $(SPY.AU)$ tracks the benchmark index by holding shares of all 500 companies and charging nominal annual fees totaling 0.09% of assets. Its five largest holdings (including two common-share classes for Alphabet Inc. $(GOOGL)$(GOOGL)) make up 22.6% of the portfolio. Here's how they have performed:\n\n\n\nCompany\nTotal return -- 2021\nTotal return -- 2020\nTotal return -- 2019\nTotal return -- 3 Years\nTotal return -- 5 Years\n% of SPY portfolio\n\n\nApple Inc.

This year, the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF $(RSP)$ has outperformed SPY and the S&P 500:\nThe weighted forward P/E ratio for the S&P 500 is 21.1, according to FactSet. For comparison, the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) has a forward P/E is 18.4.\nThe equal-weighted approach is, arguably, less risky than the cap-weighted approach, because an investor avoids such a large concentration in a handful of stocks. But during the S&P 500's strong run in recent years, the equal-weighted portfolio has underperformed the index. Here are average annual returns for various periods:\n\n\n\nFund or index\nAverage return -- 3 years\nAverage return -- 5 years\nAverage return -- 10 years\nAverage return -- 15 years\nAverage return -- 17 years\n\n\nInvesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF RSP\n15.7%\n15.2%\n15.7%\n10.8%\n11.0%\n\n\nSPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust SPY\n18.1%\n17.8%\n16.7%\n10.8%\n10.7%\n\n\nS&P 500 SPX\n18.2%\n17.9%\n16.9%\n10.9%\n10.8%\n\n\nSource: FactSet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSP was established in August 2003, so the longest period for the average returns shown above is 17 years. For that period, the equal-weighed has approach performed best, while it has underperformed the cap-weighted index in all the more recent periods.

Expansions currently underway will go online in two to three years, meaning they may end up dragging companies down.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":686,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":835563159,"gmtCreate":1629727348771,"gmtModify":1676530113391,"author":{"id":"4091016665117280","authorId":"4091016665117280","name":"Chijmes","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be90303428bfcd16aa9ece032cdc2534","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091016665117280","authorIdStr":"4091016665117280"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MU\">$Micron Technology(MU)$</a>We shall see when it is towards end of September.&nbsp;","listText":"&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MU\">$Micron Technology(MU)$</a>We shall see when it is towards end of September.&nbsp;","text":"$Micron Technology(MU)$We shall see when it is towards end of September.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":11,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835563159","repostId":"1154389228","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":686,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":885212940,"gmtCreate":1631797111080,"gmtModify":1676530637871,"author":{"id":"4091016665117280","authorId":"4091016665117280","name":"Chijmes","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be90303428bfcd16aa9ece032cdc2534","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091016665117280","authorIdStr":"4091016665117280"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Support <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$</a>","listText":"Support <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$</a>","text":"Support $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/885212940","repostId":"2167591230","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":539,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883381120,"gmtCreate":1631202218260,"gmtModify":1676530496399,"author":{"id":"4091016665117280","authorId":"4091016665117280","name":"Chijmes","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be90303428bfcd16aa9ece032cdc2534","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091016665117280","authorIdStr":"4091016665117280"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MU\">$Micron Technology(MU)$</a>Support","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MU\">$Micron Technology(MU)$</a>Support","text":"$Micron Technology(MU)$Support","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/883381120","repostId":"1135345797","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1135345797","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631156729,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1135345797?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-09 11:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Micron Is Too Cheap To Ignore","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1135345797","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"I invest mainly in secular growth companies and would, therefore, avoid Micron because the memory and storage segment is highly cyclical.Micron is reporting strong growth in the past few quarters and this trend is expected to remain positive over the next couple of years.Micron Technology is a cyclical play within the semiconductor industry and I prefer to invest in secular growth companies, but its valuation is so cheap that it makes a very compelling investment right now.Micron is one of the l","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>I invest mainly in secular growth companies and would, therefore, avoid Micron because the memory and storage segment is highly cyclical.</li>\n <li>Micron is reporting strong growth in the past few quarters and this trend is expected to remain positive over the next couple of years.</li>\n <li>Its valuation at less than 7x forward earnings is very undemanding and makes it a good cyclical play in the semiconductor industry.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea6943b055b8a3f717a6e1f6c038c065\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1025\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Micron Technology</b>(MU) is a cyclical play within the semiconductor industry and I prefer to invest in secular growth companies, but its valuation is so cheap that it makes a very compelling investment right now.</p>\n<p><b>Company Overview</b></p>\n<p>Micron&nbsp;is one of the largest semiconductor companies in the world, measured by its more than $21 billion in revenues generated last year.

Micron does not fit that criteria and for that reason I was inclined to avoid it.\nHowever, I find its valuation as ridiculously cheap, given that based on 2022 and 2023 earnings it is currently trading at less than 7x forward earnings. This is extremely undemanding and even if earnings estimates come down somewhat, Micron would still be trading at a much lower valuation than its peers and its own historical average (about 11.5x over the past five years).\nThis means that even though Micron is a cyclical play within the semiconductor industry (my investment approach is to buy mainly secular growth companies), its valuation is too much cheap to ignore and upside potential looks good if pricing in the memory market remains strong. I have bought a small stake in Micron (about 3% of my portfolio) and intend to hold it for a while, but if pricing in the memory market starts to show weakness I most likely will sell my stake.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":723,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":813746107,"gmtCreate":1630255995009,"gmtModify":1676530251614,"author":{"id":"4091016665117280","authorId":"4091016665117280","name":"Chijmes","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be90303428bfcd16aa9ece032cdc2534","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091016665117280","authorIdStr":"4091016665117280"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Micron","listText":"Micron","text":"Micron","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/813746107","repostId":"2162018921","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2162018921","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1629993272,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2162018921?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-26 23:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 20 'left behind' stocks among the S&P 500 are expected to rise up to 59% over 12 months","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162018921","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Some surprises among the small number of stocks that are down for 2021\nThe S&P 500 index closed at a","content":"<p>Some surprises among the small number of stocks that are down for 2021</p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 index closed at another all-time high on Wednesday, its 51st record this year.

Success has been widespread, with 250 of the S&P 500 outperforming the index as a whole. But there are always some stocks left behind, including the list of highly regarded names below.\nFirst, consider how well the S&P 500 has been performing. It was up 20.8% for 2021 through Aug. 25, with dividends reinvested. That follows returns of 32.5% in 2020 and 31.5% in 2019. The index has returned 88.1% since the end of 2018. All performance figures in this article include reinvested dividends.\nIf we even out the numbers, the S&P 500 has returned 65% for three years, 128% for five years and 375% for 10 years, underlining the case for stocks as the ideal asset class for most long-term investors. Performance slips if we go out 15 years to cover the 2008 financial crisis, with a return of 367%.\nStocks left behind in 2021 that may have great potential for investors\nThrough Aug. 25, 58 of the S&P 500 components were down for 2021.
