Similar to two other popular stocks amongst investors, Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL). Along with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (META), these are some of the most recognizable businesses in the world. And for good reason. In my opinion they all offer investors high growth, and I view them as long-term holds. But as solely a dividend investor, which you can tell by my name, I don&#39;t hold any of these in my portfolio.</p><p>Out of the big four, only one pays a dividend, and that&#39;s AAPL. I wrote an article on them last month stating that the dividend yield was too low for a stock that generates the kind of cash flow the tech giant does. I understand many investors don&#39;t hold AAPL for the dividend but for the growth. Some say it&#39;s not even considered a dividend stock. While I agree many investors don&#39;t hold them for the dividend, it is indeed a dividend stock. It pays a quarterly dividend so by definition it&#39;s exactly that<em>.</em></p><p>But enough about Apple. I&#39;m not sure if many readers remember when billionaire Elon Musk stated he wanted to pay Tesla shareholders a dividend. But I do! I was once a shareholder in the electric vehicle (&#34;EV&#34;) company, but sold to focus on building a stream of income to live off within the next several years.

If the EV giant does indeed decide to pay shareholders a dividend, I might reconsider buying.</p><h2 id=\"id_3702543821\">Where&#39;s The Dividend?</h2><p>In March of 2022, there were talks that Tesla would ask at its annual shareholder meeting for an increase in the number of authorized shares in order to enable a stock split of the company. This would be the second time in 2 years, only this time so the EV maker could possibly pay a dividend. In August of the same year, Tesla completed a 3-for-1 stock split and after the dividend talks went silent.</p><p>Little more than a year a half later, still no dividend. And it doesn&#39;t seem like paying a dividend is a priority for the company, either. To be fair, Tesla is still in its growth stages, so a dividend in the near future doesn&#39;t seem all that likely. See below for Seeking Alpha&#39;s dividend estimates. As you can see, the stock would have a very low yield, similar to that of Apple&#39;s.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2fb4807b8c05b133afdd70d17752beb3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"703\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_2187210639\">Can Tesla Support Paying A Dividend?</h2><p>To be honest, I don&#39;t think CEO&#39;s like Warren Buffett and Elon Musk are fond of their companies paying dividends. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is another company with a huge cash flow that doesn&#39;t pay a dividend. But one thing for sure is that they love collecting them! Warren Buffett is an avid dividend collector like myself. Only difference besides the spelling of the name is the amount he collects. The amount I collect in comparison is minuscule. He has many decades of collecting dividends ahead of me. But enough about that.</p><p>There are many companies that pay dividends and many that do not. In the current macro environment, dividend collecting has seemingly become more attractive. With the FED still battling inflation and food &amp; gas prices still soaring, collecting a check every week or month can help soften the blow.</p><p>As big as TSLA is, it still had its fair share of problems in 2022. From high interest rates to forced shutdowns. Additionally, the EV maker saw its operating cash flow decrease Q3 &#39;22 to Q1 &#39;23. But despite that, Tesla delivered over 1.3 million cars and achieved a 17% operating margin, the highest among any volume carmaker. They also generated $12.5 billion in net income and $7.5 billion in free cash flow.</p><p>And while CAPEX has doubled over the last two years, the company has managed to triple its cash from operations during the same time. Tesla grew its CFO from $5.9 billion in 2020 to $14.7 billion at the end of 2022. In 2021 the EV maker&#39;s free cash flow (&#34;FCF&#34;) was roughly $5 billion. This is a testament to Tesla as a company, because having positive free cash flow in a capital-intensive business, that also invests massive amount of its money into new technology, isn&#39;t easy. Especially in the current environment, so it&#39;s obvious they&#39;re doing something right.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44b19c6be4d6b01a2eeaf20503b148d3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"702\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_1218844204\">Dividend Forecast</h2><p>Hypothetically speaking, using the middle of Seeking Alpha&#39;s projection, and giving them a dividend yield similar to AAPL, if TSLA did decide to pay an annual dividend of $1.37, that would equal a quarterly dividend of $0.3425 a share. With 3.48 billion current shares outstanding, this would equal a payout of almost $1.192 billion a quarter.</p><p>To put this into perspective, TSLA&#39;s FCF for the last two quarters were $0.4 billion in Q1 and $1.0 billion in Q2. Now, I&#39;m not saying that TSLA would pay a dividend that high if they did decide to pay one, I just used the annual $1.37 hypothetically because it was similar to AAPL and both are considered high-growth businesses. I assume that they would start with a very small dividend of $0.25 or less if they did decide on rewarding shareholders due to the capital-intensive nature of the business.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06039effc2608d24f611c703b74579b8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"/></p><p>SimplySafeDividends</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_3346398746\">Growth Ahead</h2><p>During Q2 earnings their CEO Elon Musk stated that the company achieved record vehicle production and deliveries, and record revenue of about $25 billion in a single quarter. Additionally, the Model Y became the best-selling vehicle globally of any kind in Q1, surpassing the Toyota (TM) Corolla. They are also expecting to deliver the highly anticipated Cybertruck in Q3. And although they are expecting Q3 production to be down due to factory upgrades, they&#39;re still expecting to deliver 1.8 million vehicles this year.</p><p>This is an increase of 38.46% year-over-year. As you can see, TSLA has continued to increase its production and vehicles quarter-over-quarter since Q3 of 2020, and I see this moving forward. Due to rising costs in gas and the demand for electric cars, I see Tesla continuing to dominate the EV space for many years to come. By 2030 it is expected EV&#39;s will omit the need for 5 million barrels of oil a day. This trend also has a positive effect on battery production and supply chains. And with investments into artificial intelligence and the Tesla Megapack, these will continue to be profitable contributors for the company.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7eb684d5c2b48ec82a39da0a15940644\" tg-width=\"388\" tg-height=\"453\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_2681719327\">Healthy Balance Sheet</h2><p>One thing I don&#39;t believe gets talked about enough with Tesla is their balance sheet. The amount of debt a company has can be a huge factor in dividend payments and growth. A high-quality company with too much debt on its balance sheet will most likely focus on paying it down before committing to a dividend.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s balance sheet further affirms its quality, especially in the current high interest rate environment. A lot of fast-growing companies will often take on a lot of debt to fund their growth, but TSLA has avoided this which speaks volumes to their CEO Elon Musk and his team.</p><p>One thing that&#39;s impressive is how the company has managed to increase their cash balance while simultaneously decreasing their debt load over the last year. This time frame includes the fastest rate hike in history and production of the Cybertruck. At the end of Q2 TSLA had over $23 billion in cash with just $872 million in debt. To put this in perspective, this has decreased from $2.8 billion year-over-year and from $11.6 billion in 2019. The company has essentially become debt-free over the last 4 years while maintaining positive cash flow during the same period. So if the company did decide to surprise shareholders with a dividend, one thing they wouldn&#39;t have to worry about paying back is debt.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/921c46386a7253f26ccf5b0bd1ee2b6c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"328\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_3794007412\">Risks</h2><p>Although the company doesn&#39;t have to worry about refinancing a huge debt load at higher rates like many other companies, the current macro environment has affected them. High interest rates and the threat of a recession take a toll on consumer spending as seen by the high credit card debt. Recent data from the Federal Reserve showed American credit card debt soared to $1.3 trillion in Q2 of this year. Furthermore, the average credit card interest rate was 22.16% in May. And while most consumers don&#39;t buy cars with their credit cards, this does show that many are allocating their funds elsewhere, which leaves less room for spending on items like Tesla cars in the near-term.</p><p>So in short this reduces the affordability of cars. And this has forced Tesla to lower its cost because the interest payments actually increase the price of the car. All the while things such as production costs and the price of raw materials continue to rise. Then there&#39;s the expected Q3 volume decline due to factory upgrades. All of these I consider short to medium-term headwinds but headwinds nonetheless. As the economy stabilizes over the next several quarters I expect production to pick back up and the highly anticipated Cybertruck to become a massive hit with customers.</p><h2 id=\"id_343261467\">Valuation</h2><p>One thing that has always been associated with Tesla was the word overvalued. I honestly don&#39;t remember a time when it wasn&#39;t. The stock currently has a P/E ratio of 71.24 at time of writing making it extremely overvalued. Exactly a year ago on September 8th, the stock was trading at $289 and has since seen its price decline by roughly 8.2%. The time to buy this stock was at the beginning of the year when it reached a price of nearly $100. With an average price target of $252 I just don&#39;t think it offers investors enough margin of safety at the current price.</p><p>With tax-loss harvesting season coming soon investors may just get a chance add on a pullback in price, although I can&#39;t see the price dropping that low. With its recent stock split history who knows, maybe the company will split its stock again in 2024. In the last 3 years the company has done two stock splits, once in 2020 and once in 2022. Known for its overvaluation, I wouldn&#39;t be surprised to see another in the near-future.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0ac5df2b7b10cb8c8075cfcad207114\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"386\"/></p><p>Y charts</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_461651957\">Conclusion</h2><p>Although many don&#39;t invest in Tesla with hopes of the stock paying a dividend, in 2022 there were brief talks of the company paying one. Since then I haven&#39;t heard talks of any kind in reference to this. It could still be a part of the EV giant&#39;s future plans, I don&#39;t see this happening anytime soon as the stock is focused on growth.</p><p>Although TSLA is a capital-intensive business, the company has managed to grow its free cash flow and decrease its debt over the last several years, which is impressive. With two stock splits in the last three years and the continued growth of the company, maybe investors could potentially see the dividend talks come to fruition over the next few years.</p><p>For those looking for growth, I think TSLA is a great addition on a pullback closer to the $200 price range or with another stock split. With tax-loss harvesting season approaching soon and a looming recession, investors could see the stock&#39;s price fall over these next several weeks potentially offering a more attractive entry price for those looking to invest. Although quality normally trades at a premium, TSLA&#39;s P/E of 71 is unjustifiable. As previously mentioned the stock is normally always overvalued since it is very popular amongst investors. I do see the company continuing its dominance in the EV space for many years to come.</p><p>If Tesla, Inc. does decide to conduct another stock split and implement a dividend, I will most likely open a position. Until then, I rate TSLA a hold.</p><p>Editor&#39;s Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

And although they are expecting Q3 production to be down due to factory upgrades, they're still expecting to deliver 1.8 million vehicles this year.This is an increase of 38.46% year-over-year. As you can see, TSLA has continued to increase its production and vehicles quarter-over-quarter since Q3 of 2020, and I see this moving forward. Due to rising costs in gas and the demand for electric cars, I see Tesla continuing to dominate the EV space for many years to come. By 2030 it is expected EV's will omit the need for 5 million barrels of oil a day. This trend also has a positive effect on battery production and supply chains. And with investments into artificial intelligence and the Tesla Megapack, these will continue to be profitable contributors for the company.TSLA investor presentationHealthy Balance SheetOne thing I don't believe gets talked about enough with Tesla is their balance sheet. The amount of debt a company has can be a huge factor in dividend payments and growth. A high-quality company with too much debt on its balance sheet will most likely focus on paying it down before committing to a dividend.Tesla's balance sheet further affirms its quality, especially in the current high interest rate environment. A lot of fast-growing companies will often take on a lot of debt to fund their growth, but TSLA has avoided this which speaks volumes to their CEO Elon Musk and his team.One thing that's impressive is how the company has managed to increase their cash balance while simultaneously decreasing their debt load over the last year. This time frame includes the fastest rate hike in history and production of the Cybertruck. At the end of Q2 TSLA had over $23 billion in cash with just $872 million in debt. To put this in perspective, this has decreased from $2.8 billion year-over-year and from $11.6 billion in 2019. The company has essentially become debt-free over the last 4 years while maintaining positive cash flow during the same period. So if the company did decide to surprise shareholders with a dividend, one thing they wouldn't have to worry about paying back is debt.TSLA investor presentationRisksAlthough the company doesn't have to worry about refinancing a huge debt load at higher rates like many other companies, the current macro environment has affected them. High interest rates and the threat of a recession take a toll on consumer spending as seen by the high credit card debt. Recent data from the Federal Reserve showed American credit card debt soared to $1.3 trillion in Q2 of this year. Furthermore, the average credit card interest rate was 22.16% in May. And while most consumers don't buy cars with their credit cards, this does show that many are allocating their funds elsewhere, which leaves less room for spending on items like Tesla cars in the near-term.So in short this reduces the affordability of cars. And this has forced Tesla to lower its cost because the interest payments actually increase the price of the car. All the while things such as production costs and the price of raw materials continue to rise. Then there's the expected Q3 volume decline due to factory upgrades. All of these I consider short to medium-term headwinds but headwinds nonetheless. As the economy stabilizes over the next several quarters I expect production to pick back up and the highly anticipated Cybertruck to become a massive hit with customers.ValuationOne thing that has always been associated with Tesla was the word overvalued. I honestly don't remember a time when it wasn't. The stock currently has a P/E ratio of 71.24 at time of writing making it extremely overvalued. Exactly a year ago on September 8th, the stock was trading at $289 and has since seen its price decline by roughly 8.2%. The time to buy this stock was at the beginning of the year when it reached a price of nearly $100. With an average price target of $252 I just don't think it offers investors enough margin of safety at the current price.With tax-loss harvesting season coming soon investors may just get a chance add on a pullback in price, although I can't see the price dropping that low. With its recent stock split history who knows, maybe the company will split its stock again in 2024. In the last 3 years the company has done two stock splits, once in 2020 and once in 2022. Known for its overvaluation, I wouldn't be surprised to see another in the near-future.Y chartsConclusionAlthough many don't invest in Tesla with hopes of the stock paying a dividend, in 2022 there were brief talks of the company paying one. Since then I haven't heard talks of any kind in reference to this. It could still be a part of the EV giant's future plans, I don't see this happening anytime soon as the stock is focused on growth.Although TSLA is a capital-intensive business, the company has managed to grow its free cash flow and decrease its debt over the last several years, which is impressive. With two stock splits in the last three years and the continued growth of the company, maybe investors could potentially see the dividend talks come to fruition over the next few years.For those looking for growth, I think TSLA is a great addition on a pullback closer to the $200 price range or with another stock split. With tax-loss harvesting season approaching soon and a looming recession, investors could see the stock's price fall over these next several weeks potentially offering a more attractive entry price for those looking to invest. Although quality normally trades at a premium, TSLA's P/E of 71 is unjustifiable. As previously mentioned the stock is normally always overvalued since it is very popular amongst investors. I do see the company continuing its dominance in the EV space for many years to come.If Tesla, Inc. does decide to conduct another stock split and implement a dividend, I will most likely open a position. Until then, I rate TSLA a hold.Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Nevertheless, Palantir&#39;s stock went through a remarkable decline of approximately 87% from peak to trough. Moreover, despite the recent rebound, Palantir&#39;s stock is still about 80% below the company&#39;s post-IPO high of around $45. The good news is that the stock is on the verge of a significant breakout and may soon move up to the $12-$15 range.</p><p>Also, the wild price action in Palantir&#39;s stock has troubled some investors since going public. However, the stock had severe dilution, hype, FOMO, and overvaluation issues around its top and subsequent highs. Now the stock is in a much different, more stable place, and Palantir is a more mature public company. Moreover, Palantir has enormous growth and profitability potential. The company provided a glimpse into its future potential during its most recent earnings announcement.</p><h2>Palantir - Not Your Ordinary Company</h2><p>Palantir is different from your ordinary company, and the company comes out with exciting results in unexpected instances. We can see this phenomenon in Palantir&#39;s recent earnings report. While many companies missed their estimates and reported excessive losses, Palantir beat on top and bottom line estimates.</p><p><b>Q4 Highlights</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/938f7c1742c5340f04f4adb173259e2c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"257\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Highlights (static.seekingalpha.com)</p><p>Palantir achieved quarterly GAAP profitability for the first time, illustrating that the company has the potential to become increasingly profitable as it advances. Revenue (Q4) was <i>$509 million</i>, outpacing last year&#39;s number by 18%. The company also posted a very healthy 22% adjusted operating margin in Q4. Additionally, Palantir provided solid outlooks for future years. Yet, the company&#39;s stance may be modest, giving Palantir a higher probability of surpassing future earnings reports. Therefore, there are many positive takeaways from Palantir&#39;s recent earnings report, and the full-year numbers look just as strong, if not better.</p><p><b>FY 2022 Highlights</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/83725d7b19b099337c084e7d9e57496f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"271\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>FY highlights (static.seekingalpha.com)</p><p>Palantir&#39;s U.S. business experienced massive growth, increasing revenues by 32% to <i>$1.2</i> <i>billion in</i> 2022. Moreover, Palantir&#39;s commercial side of the business boomed, delivering 67% revenue growth YoY. Additionally, the customer count increased by 55% YoY, closed deals climbed by 61%, and Palantir maintained its healthy 22% adjusted operating margin throughout last year. I see excellent numbers and a relatively small enterprise transitioning into a solid, profitable public company. Palantir&#39;s robust, stable, and increasing profitability trend should persist, enabling the company&#39;s stock price to move much higher in the coming years.</p><h2>Palantir - Not That Expensive Anymore</h2><p>It&#39;s true. Now that Palantir is around $9, it&#39;s substantially more expensive than when the price was at $6. However, the short-term distortion of its price may be short-lived. First, I want to underline that Palantir has returned below its IPO price days. Moreover, Palantir is trading at only around seven times forward sales estimates and has the potential to become increasingly more profitable in future years.</p><p><b>EPS Estimates May Be Too Conservative</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0662ecabe43b248f9ddceb6f7baa4be5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"179\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>EPS estimates (seekingalpha.com)</p><p>Most analysts believe Palantir will deliver $0.20-$0.30 EPS this year and the next. However, we&#39;re seeing Palantir illustrate higher profitability than projected, and this trend of outperforming the estimates could continue. Moreover, if Palantir can surpass estimates and produce unexpected profitability when the economy is in a &#34;challenging&#34; phase, think of what Palantir will do when the economy gets hot again. Palantir&#39;s commercial business could increase significantly and much more than expected. Therefore, the company&#39;s stock price will benefit considerably in the coming years. I suspect Palantir could be close to $20 by year&#39;s end. Provided the stock was at around $6 at the start of the year, a potential 233% gain is significant, making Palantir a top stock-to-own contender for 2023.</p><p><b>Here&#39;s where Palantir&#39;s stock price could be in future years:</b></p><table><tbody><tr><td><b>Year</b></td><td><b>2023</b></td><td><b>2024</b></td><td><b>2025</b></td><td><b>2026</b></td><td><b>2027</b></td><td><b>2028</b></td><td><b>2029</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue Bs</b></td><td>$2.25</td><td>$2.85</td><td>$3.65</td><td>$4.67</td><td>$5.98</td><td>$7.59</td><td>$9.48</td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue growth</b></td><td>18%</td><td>26%</td><td>27%</td><td>28%</td><td>28%</td><td>27%</td><td>25%</td></tr><tr><td><b>EPS</b></td><td>$.20</td><td>$.29</td><td>$.44</td><td>$.65</td><td>$.94</td><td>$1.31</td><td>1.77</td></tr><tr><td><b>EPS growth</b></td><td>300%</td><td>45%</td><td>50%</td><td>47%</td><td>45%</td><td>40%</td><td>35%</td></tr><tr><td><b>Forward P/E</b></td><td>31</td><td>32</td><td>33</td><td>35</td><td>34</td><td>33</td><td>30</td></tr><tr><td><b>Stock price</b></td><td>$9</td><td>$14</td><td>$21</td><td>$33</td><td>$52</td><td>$59</td><td>$70</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Source: The Financial Prophet</p><h2>Risks to Palantir</h2><p>Despite my bullish outlook for Palantir, market participants should consider several potential risks associated with this investment.

Nevertheless, Palantir's stock went through a remarkable decline of approximately 87% from peak to trough. Moreover, despite the recent rebound, Palantir's stock is still about 80% below the company's post-IPO high of around $45. The good news is that the stock is on the verge of a significant breakout and may soon move up to the $12-$15 range.Also, the wild price action in Palantir's stock has troubled some investors since going public. However, the stock had severe dilution, hype, FOMO, and overvaluation issues around its top and subsequent highs. Now the stock is in a much different, more stable place, and Palantir is a more mature public company. Moreover, Palantir has enormous growth and profitability potential. The company provided a glimpse into its future potential during its most recent earnings announcement.Palantir - Not Your Ordinary CompanyPalantir is different from your ordinary company, and the company comes out with exciting results in unexpected instances. We can see this phenomenon in Palantir's recent earnings report. While many companies missed their estimates and reported excessive losses, Palantir beat on top and bottom line estimates.Q4 HighlightsHighlights (static.seekingalpha.com)Palantir achieved quarterly GAAP profitability for the first time, illustrating that the company has the potential to become increasingly profitable as it advances. Revenue (Q4) was $509 million, outpacing last year's number by 18%. The company also posted a very healthy 22% adjusted operating margin in Q4. Additionally, Palantir provided solid outlooks for future years. Yet, the company's stance may be modest, giving Palantir a higher probability of surpassing future earnings reports. Therefore, there are many positive takeaways from Palantir's recent earnings report, and the full-year numbers look just as strong, if not better.FY 2022 HighlightsFY highlights (static.seekingalpha.com)Palantir's U.S. business experienced massive growth, increasing revenues by 32% to $1.2 billion in 2022. Moreover, Palantir's commercial side of the business boomed, delivering 67% revenue growth YoY. Additionally, the customer count increased by 55% YoY, closed deals climbed by 61%, and Palantir maintained its healthy 22% adjusted operating margin throughout last year. I see excellent numbers and a relatively small enterprise transitioning into a solid, profitable public company. Palantir's robust, stable, and increasing profitability trend should persist, enabling the company's stock price to move much higher in the coming years.Palantir - Not That Expensive AnymoreIt's true. Now that Palantir is around $9, it's substantially more expensive than when the price was at $6. However, the short-term distortion of its price may be short-lived. First, I want to underline that Palantir has returned below its IPO price days. Moreover, Palantir is trading at only around seven times forward sales estimates and has the potential to become increasingly more profitable in future years.EPS Estimates May Be Too ConservativeEPS estimates (seekingalpha.com)Most analysts believe Palantir will deliver $0.20-$0.30 EPS this year and the next. However, we're seeing Palantir illustrate higher profitability than projected, and this trend of outperforming the estimates could continue. Moreover, if Palantir can surpass estimates and produce unexpected profitability when the economy is in a \"challenging\" phase, think of what Palantir will do when the economy gets hot again. Palantir's commercial business could increase significantly and much more than expected. Therefore, the company's stock price will benefit considerably in the coming years. I suspect Palantir could be close to $20 by year's end. Provided the stock was at around $6 at the start of the year, a potential 233% gain is significant, making Palantir a top stock-to-own contender for 2023.Here's where Palantir's stock price could be in future years:Year2023202420252026202720282029Revenue Bs$2.25$2.85$3.65$4.67$5.98$7.59$9.48Revenue growth18%26%27%28%28%27%25%EPS$.20$.29$.44$.65$.94$1.311.77EPS growth300%45%50%47%45%40%35%Forward P/E31323335343330Stock price$9$14$21$33$52$59$70Source: The Financial ProphetRisks to PalantirDespite my bullish outlook for Palantir, market participants should consider several potential risks associated with this investment.

its climb.These include asset enhancement initiatives (AEIs), positive rent reversions, and built-in rental escalation clauses.CapitaLand Ascendas REIT(SGX: A17U) completed two AEIs in 2022 worth S$16.3 million in Singapore.The industrial REIT has an ongoing AEI with an estimated cost of S$15.5 million that should complete by the fourth quarter of 2023.Mapletree Logistics Trust(SGX: M44U) has once again reported a positive rental reversion of 2.9% for its current fiscal 2023’s third quarter.The logistics REIT is continuing its run of more than 10 consecutive quarters of positive rent reversion, underscoring the strong leasing demand for its properties.For Keppel DC REIT, built-in rental escalation clauses embedded within its leases have helped the data centre REIT to offset some inflationary impact.Get Smart: Where there’s a will, there’s a wayAs the above examples illustrate, REITs can still grow their DPU in a variety of ways despite the steadily-rising interest rate.Savvy REIT managers can choose to lock in a greater proportion of the REIT’s loans at fixed rates or engage in organic growth initiatives to boost DPU.And if all else fails, REITs with strong sponsors can tap into them for potential yield-accretive acquisitions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9968471035,"gmtCreate":1669305586228,"gmtModify":1676538181536,"author":{"id":"4091343496242080","authorId":"4091343496242080","name":"SteveTan1","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d55ede77af4234570420f4ccc08177a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Microsoft

Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2285388729","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Sticking with tried-and-true tech giants could be a formula for success in 2023.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Consumers are struggling under the pressures of high inflation and rising interest rates this year. That&#39;s having knock-on effects for companies that sell big-ticket items, as well as those that rely on advertising to generate revenue.</p><p>These challenges are making life particularly difficult for <b>Microsoft</b> and Google parent <b>Alphabet</b>. Even though the value of both companies steadily declined in 2022, they&#39;re still worth $1.8 trillion and $1.2 trillion, respectively, and they&#39;re retaining their positions as two of the largest companies in the world.</p><p>How do these two stocks maintain their dominance in this difficult economy? By having multiple, diverse revenue streams, where one or two key business units pick up the slack from the others that are suffering. With 2023 right around the corner, investors should consider buying Microsoft and Alphabet stocks. Let&#39;s look at the reasons why.</p><h2>1. Microsoft is soaring through the cloud</h2><p>Microsoft has a well-established portfolio of consumer brands, featuring the Windows operating system, the Office 365 document suite, the Surface line of notebook computers, and the Xbox gaming console. The latter two are under the most pressure, with device sales softening in recent quarters and user engagement in the Xbox ecosystem falling as society shifts back toward pre-pandemic habits.</p><p>But this year is all about the cloud for Microsoft (though, to be honest, this has been the case for the past several years). Its intelligent-cloud segment is the largest of the company&#39;s three core business units, as the corporate sector continues to shift operations online. Microsoft&#39;s Azure cloud services platform grew its revenue by 35% in the recent first quarter of fiscal 2023 (ended Sept. 30), which was triple the 11% growth rate for the company&#39;s overall revenue.</p><p>Azure offers hundreds of solutions to its business customers, from simple data storage to virtual machines to artificial intelligence, and the platform is ranked second in the industry behind <b>Amazon </b>Web Services. That&#39;s important because the cloud computing opportunity is estimated to be worth $484 billion this year but could grow to over $1.5 trillion annually by 2030 (according to Grand View Research).</p><p>That&#39;s a compound annual growth rate of 15.7%. Since Azure is already growing significantly faster than that, it suggests it&#39;s acquiring market share along the way.</p><p>While Microsoft experienced softness in its consumer-centric segments this year, the cloud  enabled the entire company to maintain a comfortable growth rate. But since there are already signs that inflationary pressures are easing, Microsoft&#39;s lagging businesses could see a resurgence as we enter 2023.</p><p>Now might be an opportune time to buy Microsoft stock since it&#39;s trading at a 31% discount from its all-time high.</p><h2>2. Alphabet: Keep watching YouTube (not literally, of course)</h2><p>Alphabet is a key barometer for the advertising sector because almost its entire business relies on ad dollars to generate revenue. It&#39;s the parent company of Google, which still drives the whole organization, financially speaking, particularly through its market-leading search engine. But amid the weakening economy this year, businesses trimmed their marketing budgets, which led to a material slowdown in Alphabet&#39;s revenue growth.</p><p>When a business observes broader economic weakness, it makes the safe assumption that consumers will have less spending power and the company will receive a smaller return on investment when it comes to advertising. As a result, Google Search revenue grew by just 4.2% year over year in the recent third quarter (ended Sept. 30). For context, it grew 10 times faster (44%) in the same quarter last year when the economy was roaring on the back of stimulus dollars and low interest rates.</p><p>Similarly, Alphabet&#39;s YouTube video platform saw a 1.8% year-over-year decrease in advertising revenue during Q3 but is currently in the midst of an important transition. YouTube launched &#34;Shorts&#34; two years ago to compete with ByteDance&#39;s TikTok, which has swept the globe with its highly engaging short-form mobile video app. Shorts has been a major success, attracting 1.5 billion monthly users and 30 billion daily video views.</p><p>The challenge is that short-form video monetizes at a lower rate than longer content. Since Shorts is cannibalizing the traditional YouTube video formats, the platform brought in less money recently.</p><p>This will improve in 2023 as Alphabet makes premium content creation more lucrative for YouTube users because higher-quality content means higher prices for advertising spots. Plus, it&#39;s exploring new opportunities like shopping, which allows creators to link to products in their videos, bridging the gap between social media and e-commerce.</p><p>While YouTube made up just 10.2% of Alphabet&#39;s total revenue in Q3, investors should expect it to be a more significant part of the company in the future as Shorts continues to grow. That&#39;s because short-form video engages a very young audience, which is a coveted factor for advertisers. But looking at the bigger picture, if the economy improves in 2023, Google Search should also roar back to life and supercharge Alphabet.</p><p>With the stock price down 35% from its all-time high, this might be a great time to buy ahead of the new year.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>2023 Is Coming: 2 Trillion-Dollar Growth Stocks to Buy Before the New Year</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\">\n2023 Is Coming: 2 Trillion-Dollar Growth Stocks to Buy Before the New Year\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-24 20:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/22/2023-2-trillion-dollar-growth-stocks-buy-new-year/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Consumers are struggling under the pressures of high inflation and rising interest rates this year.

This year&#39;s 618 festival logged positive growth, which was encouraging given the difficult operating environment Alibaba was operating in within China during the period. Also, management continued to see the recovery in China commerce business in July as momentum for the business continues.</p><p>That said, I am also wary of how the changes in macroeconomic environment as well as consumer sentiment may affect e-commerce as consumption spending is reduced during periods of economic downturns. Based on the NBS data shared by the Chinese government, spending as a percentage of disposable income fell from 69% in the first half of the prior year to 64% in the first half of this year. Furthermore, I would add that this fall in spend as a percentage of disposable income was more pronounced in urban areas relative to rural areas. What this tells me is that there is the potential for discretionary spending to come down as consumers focus more on staples in the current uncertain economic environment.</p><p>As such, although I think we are starting to see some progress and improvement in consumption in Alibaba&#39;s numbers, we might need more time for the consumer sentiment and economy to be strong enough to have a full recovery in China commerce.</p><p>To address the rising concerns about threats from short form videos competitors like TikTok and Kuaishou (OTCPK:KUASF), management commented that they see short videos as a content format and that Alibaba as a business also uses these short form videos on its platforms. For example, on the Taobao app, more than half of the content consumers view are in the short video format. As Alibaba continues to face different competitors that may vie for the e-commerce market, management remains focused on adopting new technologies like it has in the past, be it through moving to mobile or adopting short form videos. Ultimately, I think that it is important that Alibaba as a company adapts to the rapidly changing e-commerce environment as any new innovation or change in the industry may affect the way people interact, the way they engage and the way they consume.</p><p><b>Cost control initiatives to drive quality growth</b></p><p>With Alibaba executing its optimization initiatives and cutting costs, the current quarter&#39;s adjusted EBITDA margins of 20% came in as a beat on expectations.</p><p>The main focus for management in the near term is to optimize its cost structure, which it has been focusing on for close to one year now. In my view, the beat on EBITDA margins and especially so for the China commerce EBITDA beat, shows the effectiveness in management&#39;s cost structure optimizations strategy. I think moving forward, we will continue to see management do a wide range of strategies across its different businesses to streamline the cost structure and execute on its cost optimization plans.</p><p>As Alibaba&#39;s financial position remains healthy, the management has significant flexibility to balance between their current cost optimization strategy and to continue to make strategic and technology investments for the long-term growth of Alibaba. With China commerce, having passed the1 billion annual active consumer mark, the next phase of growth comes from building this relationship with the customer to deepen the relationship and build better loyalty and trust with the customer. As a result, the company needs to continue to invest in high quality infrastructure and technology for the China commerce business for the long-term sustainable growth of the segment. With this improved relationship and better segmentation of the various types of users, as well as the continued investments made by the company, I think we will start to see China commerce growth reaccelerate again.</p><p><b>International commerce</b></p><p>I was slightly disappointed with the results from international commerce this quarter. However, to be fair, the segment is facing headwinds from the European Union&#39;s VAT rules on international commerce retail. As a result, the international commerce revenues for the quarter increased only by 2% year on year to RMB15.5 billion. Headwinds from EU VAT rules on international commerce retail</p><p>In particular, the combined business of Lazada, AliExpress, Trendyol and Daraz fell by 4% year on year. This weakness was due to the declining orders from AliExpress due to the changes in the EU VAT rules highlighted above, as well as disruptions in the supply chain in the region and the weakness of the Euro relative to the US dollar.</p><p>As for Lazada in Southeast Asia, we continue to see resilience order growth of 10% in the region year on year. There is some deceleration to be expected in the business as I think this is due to the impact from consumers moving into a post pandemic world as mobility restrictions improve in the region. However, I continue to have conviction in e-commerce in Southeast Asia in the long term as there are structural tailwinds driving the business that the short-term deceleration will not deter. Also, for Lazada, the company&#39;s efforts to focus on improvements in operating efficiency resulted in narrowing of loss for the business in the current quarter.</p><p>Trendyolsaw strong growth in the segment as the business grew 46% year on year. The company plans to focus more into high-frequency local consumer services business. Also, Trendyol served more than 225K merchants on its marketplace platform in the quarter.</p><p><b>Cloud computing recovering from non-internet sectors</b></p><p>In the current quarter, we saw the cloud computing revenues grow by 10% year on year, and the growth was driven by the recovery of non-internet industry. The recovery in the non-internet sector was driven by sectors like financial services, public services for example. However, this was offset by weakness from the internet, online education sectors. The internet sector, in particular, was rather weak due to Alibaba&#39;s largest customer gradually stopping the use of Alibaba Cloud for its overseas business due to certain requirements, as well as softer demand from other internet customers.</p><p>As a result of the weakness from the internet sectors, non-internet sectors accounted for 53% of cloud revenues in the current quarter, up 5 percentage points from the prior year.</p><p>Alibaba Cloud continues to innovate and remain committed to be competitive in the industry. For example, to ensure it maintains its competitive edge, Alibaba Cloud continues to focus on new proprietary technology such as Cloud Infrastructure Processing Unit(CIPU), to provide customers with new product offerings and industry-specific solutions.</p><p><b>Positive GMV growth for local consumer services</b></p><p>Due to COVID-19 disruptions, Eleme&#39;s restaurant orders declined during the quarter while this was offset by the stronger non-restaurant delivery orders during the quarter. As a result, the revenues for the segment grew at 5% year on year to RMB10.6 billion. On a positive note, the company is seeing the GMV growth turn positive in June 2022 as the business conditions normalize in June after a difficult April to May period.</p><p>Valuation</p><p>I continue to use a sum of the parts valuation model for Alibaba, segregating the business into its respective segments. For China commerce, international commerce, Youku and the cloud businesses, these are valued by DCF while the investments as well as Cainiao were based on recent market capitalization of these companies as well as valuation at the last transaction. With a holding discount of 55% applied, the target price for Alibaba is $164, implying an 86% upside from current levels.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/45b848c31cc2e1629f5155c9c0590d18\" tg-width=\"432\" tg-height=\"242\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>SOTP Valuation for Alibaba(Author generated)</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Competition</p><p>While Alibaba continues to invest and position itself for the future, the company&#39;s leadership position in the e-commerce segment in China may come under pressure if local competitors attempt to take market share from the company. These players include JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) that can cause increased competitive pressures in the market. With international players like Amazon (AMZN) and Sea Limited&#39;s (SE) Shopee competing in its overseas markets, this could pose competitive pressures in Alibaba&#39;s overseas markets.</p><p>Regulatory and political risks</p><p>This remains one of the biggest risks with big tech firms in China, but there are signs of easing of the crackdown. In addition, China has now completed the overhaul of the antitrust laws that aims to target big tech firms in China over anti-monopolistic behaviors. However, there are always risks that China may once again take aim at Alibaba or other big tech firms that may cause further pain to shareholders.</p><p>Cloud risks</p><p>As a result of intensifying competition from Huawei, Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY) and China Telecom, Alibaba Cloud could face increased pressures for growth. Given its market leadership in the segment, this makes the company more vulnerable should other enterprises shift away from Alibaba.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>The investment case for Alibaba is looking ever more compelling. The China commerce business is recovering from the early covid disruption and the next phase of growth driven by increased wallet share will reaccelerate the revenue growth for the segment. The international commerce and local consumer services segments will continue to grow rapidly as there are strong structural tailwinds supporting these businesses. Lastly, Alibaba Cloud will leverage on new growth opportunities in the form of the non-internet sector and international expansion to maintain its leadership cloud position. The target price for Alibaba is $164, implying 86% upside from current levels. With the improving fundamentals and negative sentiment for the stock, I do see Alibaba as one of the best contrarian investments in our generation.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Best Contrarian Play Of Our Generation</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\">\nAlibaba: Best Contrarian Play Of Our Generation\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-19 13:50 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4541659-alibaba-stock-best-contrarian-play-of-our-generation><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryChina commerce sees improving fundamentals as the business saw a recovery in June after COVID disruptions in April and May.Focus on cost optimization and cost structure has yielded positive ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4541659-alibaba-stock-best-contrarian-play-of-our-generation\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09988":"阿里巴巴-SW","BABA":"阿里巴巴"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4541659-alibaba-stock-best-contrarian-play-of-our-generation","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1184360738","content_text":"SummaryChina commerce sees improving fundamentals as the business saw a recovery in June after COVID disruptions in April and May.Focus on cost optimization and cost structure has yielded positive results thus far as the cost efficiency of Alibaba improves.Alibaba Cloud shows strength from the non-internet sector and management continues to focus on investments into the cloud business to drive long-term growth and maintain its market leadership.International commerce was resilient in the quarter, proving Alibaba with some diversification benefits as it looks toward international expansion of its e-commerce business.My target price for Alibaba is $164, implying an 86% upside from current levels.Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) is increasingly looking very compelling at the current levels as the fundamentals of the business looks to be improving while sentiment is still rather negative.

As a result, the revenues for the segment grew at 5% year on year to RMB10.6 billion. On a positive note, the company is seeing the GMV growth turn positive in June 2022 as the business conditions normalize in June after a difficult April to May period.ValuationI continue to use a sum of the parts valuation model for Alibaba, segregating the business into its respective segments. For China commerce, international commerce, Youku and the cloud businesses, these are valued by DCF while the investments as well as Cainiao were based on recent market capitalization of these companies as well as valuation at the last transaction. With a holding discount of 55% applied, the target price for Alibaba is $164, implying an 86% upside from current levels.SOTP Valuation for Alibaba(Author generated)RisksCompetitionWhile Alibaba continues to invest and position itself for the future, the company's leadership position in the e-commerce segment in China may come under pressure if local competitors attempt to take market share from the company. These players include JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) that can cause increased competitive pressures in the market. With international players like Amazon (AMZN) and Sea Limited's (SE) Shopee competing in its overseas markets, this could pose competitive pressures in Alibaba's overseas markets.Regulatory and political risksThis remains one of the biggest risks with big tech firms in China, but there are signs of easing of the crackdown. In addition, China has now completed the overhaul of the antitrust laws that aims to target big tech firms in China over anti-monopolistic behaviors. However, there are always risks that China may once again take aim at Alibaba or other big tech firms that may cause further pain to shareholders.Cloud risksAs a result of intensifying competition from Huawei, Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY) and China Telecom, Alibaba Cloud could face increased pressures for growth. Given its market leadership in the segment, this makes the company more vulnerable should other enterprises shift away from Alibaba.ConclusionThe investment case for Alibaba is looking ever more compelling. The China commerce business is recovering from the early covid disruption and the next phase of growth driven by increased wallet share will reaccelerate the revenue growth for the segment. The international commerce and local consumer services segments will continue to grow rapidly as there are strong structural tailwinds supporting these businesses. Lastly, Alibaba Cloud will leverage on new growth opportunities in the form of the non-internet sector and international expansion to maintain its leadership cloud position. The target price for Alibaba is $164, implying 86% upside from current levels. With the improving fundamentals and negative sentiment for the stock, I do see Alibaba as one of the best contrarian investments in our generation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":51,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9910957421,"gmtCreate":1663550457063,"gmtModify":1676537287898,"author":{"id":"4091343496242080","authorId":"4091343496242080","name":"SteveTan1","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d55ede77af4234570420f4ccc08177a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"ASML sounds good.

They&#39;re solid candidates if you have $5,000 to spend -- and even if you have $1,000 or $50,000 to spend.</p><h2><b>1. Meta Platforms</b></h2><p><b>Meta Platforms</b> is the company you might know as Facebook, but it changed its name in 2021 to reflect the scope of its operations and ambitions beyond its original social media platform. Its social media operations are rather enormous, though, with nearly 3 billion monthly active users and nearly 2 billion daily active users for Facebook alone. When you add in its other platforms -- which include Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp -- it has close to 3 billion daily active users.</p><p>Meanwhile, according to the company, &#34;Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology,&#34; -- thus its other main division, &#34;Reality Labs.&#34; So far, it&#39;s far from a big money-making enterprise, but management has high hopes for it. The company is also chasing additional profits from expanded e-commerce operations, greater use of artificial intelligence for driving content recommendations, and its answer to TikTok videos -- reels.</p><p>So why might Meta Platforms be a value stock? Well, its recent performances have disappointed investors, and their responses to its results, along with the overall market downturn, have sent its shares down by nearly 60% from their 52-week high. Now, they trade at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 14, well below their five-year average of 27. This could be a great buying opportunity for long-term believers in Mark Zuckerberg and his business.</p><h2><b>2. ServiceNow</b></h2><p><b>ServiceNow</b>, has a market cap of more than $90 billion, but its shares have fallen this year to about 36% below their 52-week high. The software-as-a-service company describes itself like this: &#34;Our cloud‑based platform and solutions help digitize and unify organizations so that they can find smarter, faster, better ways to make work flow&#34; and so &#34;employees and customers can be more connected, more innovative, and more agile.&#34;</p><p>Its second quarter featured subscription revenue of $1.7 billion, up 25% year over year, and total revenue of $1.8 billion, up 24%. Subscription income can be a big plus for a business, as it tends to keep recurring regularly, making it easier for management to plan. The company also noted: &#34;ServiceNow continues to expand its global footprint with more than 100 customers now paying over $10 million in annual contract value in Q2 2022, up more than 50% year‑over‑year.&#34;</p><p>Clearly, this is an attractive business -- and it&#39;s trading at attractive levels, too, with a recent forward-price-to-earnings ratio of 52, well below its five-year average of 80.</p><h2><b>3. ASML Holding</b></h2><p>Netherlands-based <b>ASML Holding</b> is, in its own words, &#34;a leading supplier to the semiconductor industry. The company provides chipmakers with hardware, software and services to mass produce the patterns of integrated circuits (microchips). Together with its partners, ASML drives the advancement of more affordable, more powerful, more energy-efficient microchips.&#34; Its market cap recently was near $185 billion, and it employs some 35,000 people.</p><p>The company&#39;s second-quarter report was a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, it booked a record level of new orders and the company&#39;s backlog of orders stands at around 33 billion euros -- reflecting great demand for its products. On the other hand, the company (like many others) is being pressured by supply chain issues and inflation. In response, management has reduced its expectations for revenue growth and profitability.</p><p>Its shares, meanwhile, were recently down some 47% from their 52-week high. Yes, it&#39;s facing some headwinds, but these headwinds are not likely to last forever. The stock&#39;s recent price-to-cash-flow ratio was recently 20, well below its five-year average of 37, suggesting undervaluation. At this level, it should draw the attention of investors.</p><p>These are just a few of the many compellingly valued stocks out there now, and plenty of these businesses have been growing at a rapid clip, too. Take a closer look at any that interest you to see if they seem worthy of a berth in your long-term portfolio.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Got $5,000?

Similar to two other popular stocks amongst investors, Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL). Along with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (META), these are some of the most recognizable businesses in the world. And for good reason. In my opinion they all offer investors high growth, and I view them as long-term holds. But as solely a dividend investor, which you can tell by my name, I don&#39;t hold any of these in my portfolio.</p><p>Out of the big four, only one pays a dividend, and that&#39;s AAPL. I wrote an article on them last month stating that the dividend yield was too low for a stock that generates the kind of cash flow the tech giant does. I understand many investors don&#39;t hold AAPL for the dividend but for the growth. Some say it&#39;s not even considered a dividend stock. While I agree many investors don&#39;t hold them for the dividend, it is indeed a dividend stock. It pays a quarterly dividend so by definition it&#39;s exactly that<em>.</em></p><p>But enough about Apple. I&#39;m not sure if many readers remember when billionaire Elon Musk stated he wanted to pay Tesla shareholders a dividend. But I do! I was once a shareholder in the electric vehicle (&#34;EV&#34;) company, but sold to focus on building a stream of income to live off within the next several years. And I know although some companies do not pay a dividend, investors often create their own synthetic dividend.</p><p>I&#39;m well aware of this strategy, and even though it may work for some, I&#39;m not a fan. I buy my stocks with the purpose of holding them forever unless the fundamentals change or the stock is severely underperforming in my portfolio and I see a better opportunity elsewhere. If the EV giant does indeed decide to pay shareholders a dividend, I might reconsider buying.</p><h2 id=\"id_3702543821\">Where&#39;s The Dividend?</h2><p>In March of 2022, there were talks that Tesla would ask at its annual shareholder meeting for an increase in the number of authorized shares in order to enable a stock split of the company. This would be the second time in 2 years, only this time so the EV maker could possibly pay a dividend. In August of the same year, Tesla completed a 3-for-1 stock split and after the dividend talks went silent.</p><p>Little more than a year a half later, still no dividend. And it doesn&#39;t seem like paying a dividend is a priority for the company, either. To be fair, Tesla is still in its growth stages, so a dividend in the near future doesn&#39;t seem all that likely. See below for Seeking Alpha&#39;s dividend estimates. As you can see, the stock would have a very low yield, similar to that of Apple&#39;s.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2fb4807b8c05b133afdd70d17752beb3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"703\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_2187210639\">Can Tesla Support Paying A Dividend?</h2><p>To be honest, I don&#39;t think CEO&#39;s like Warren Buffett and Elon Musk are fond of their companies paying dividends. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is another company with a huge cash flow that doesn&#39;t pay a dividend. But one thing for sure is that they love collecting them! Warren Buffett is an avid dividend collector like myself. Only difference besides the spelling of the name is the amount he collects. The amount I collect in comparison is minuscule. He has many decades of collecting dividends ahead of me. But enough about that.</p><p>There are many companies that pay dividends and many that do not. In the current macro environment, dividend collecting has seemingly become more attractive. With the FED still battling inflation and food &amp; gas prices still soaring, collecting a check every week or month can help soften the blow.</p><p>As big as TSLA is, it still had its fair share of problems in 2022. From high interest rates to forced shutdowns. Additionally, the EV maker saw its operating cash flow decrease Q3 &#39;22 to Q1 &#39;23. But despite that, Tesla delivered over 1.3 million cars and achieved a 17% operating margin, the highest among any volume carmaker. They also generated $12.5 billion in net income and $7.5 billion in free cash flow.</p><p>And while CAPEX has doubled over the last two years, the company has managed to triple its cash from operations during the same time. Tesla grew its CFO from $5.9 billion in 2020 to $14.7 billion at the end of 2022. In 2021 the EV maker&#39;s free cash flow (&#34;FCF&#34;) was roughly $5 billion. This is a testament to Tesla as a company, because having positive free cash flow in a capital-intensive business, that also invests massive amount of its money into new technology, isn&#39;t easy. Especially in the current environment, so it&#39;s obvious they&#39;re doing something right.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44b19c6be4d6b01a2eeaf20503b148d3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"702\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_1218844204\">Dividend Forecast</h2><p>Hypothetically speaking, using the middle of Seeking Alpha&#39;s projection, and giving them a dividend yield similar to AAPL, if TSLA did decide to pay an annual dividend of $1.37, that would equal a quarterly dividend of $0.3425 a share. With 3.48 billion current shares outstanding, this would equal a payout of almost $1.192 billion a quarter.</p><p>To put this into perspective, TSLA&#39;s FCF for the last two quarters were $0.4 billion in Q1 and $1.0 billion in Q2. Now, I&#39;m not saying that TSLA would pay a dividend that high if they did decide to pay one, I just used the annual $1.37 hypothetically because it was similar to AAPL and both are considered high-growth businesses. I assume that they would start with a very small dividend of $0.25 or less if they did decide on rewarding shareholders due to the capital-intensive nature of the business.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06039effc2608d24f611c703b74579b8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"/></p><p>SimplySafeDividends</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_3346398746\">Growth Ahead</h2><p>During Q2 earnings their CEO Elon Musk stated that the company achieved record vehicle production and deliveries, and record revenue of about $25 billion in a single quarter. Additionally, the Model Y became the best-selling vehicle globally of any kind in Q1, surpassing the Toyota (TM) Corolla. They are also expecting to deliver the highly anticipated Cybertruck in Q3. And although they are expecting Q3 production to be down due to factory upgrades, they&#39;re still expecting to deliver 1.8 million vehicles this year.</p><p>This is an increase of 38.46% year-over-year. As you can see, TSLA has continued to increase its production and vehicles quarter-over-quarter since Q3 of 2020, and I see this moving forward. Due to rising costs in gas and the demand for electric cars, I see Tesla continuing to dominate the EV space for many years to come. By 2030 it is expected EV&#39;s will omit the need for 5 million barrels of oil a day. This trend also has a positive effect on battery production and supply chains. And with investments into artificial intelligence and the Tesla Megapack, these will continue to be profitable contributors for the company.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7eb684d5c2b48ec82a39da0a15940644\" tg-width=\"388\" tg-height=\"453\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_2681719327\">Healthy Balance Sheet</h2><p>One thing I don&#39;t believe gets talked about enough with Tesla is their balance sheet. The amount of debt a company has can be a huge factor in dividend payments and growth. A high-quality company with too much debt on its balance sheet will most likely focus on paying it down before committing to a dividend.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s balance sheet further affirms its quality, especially in the current high interest rate environment. A lot of fast-growing companies will often take on a lot of debt to fund their growth, but TSLA has avoided this which speaks volumes to their CEO Elon Musk and his team.</p><p>One thing that&#39;s impressive is how the company has managed to increase their cash balance while simultaneously decreasing their debt load over the last year. This time frame includes the fastest rate hike in history and production of the Cybertruck. At the end of Q2 TSLA had over $23 billion in cash with just $872 million in debt. To put this in perspective, this has decreased from $2.8 billion year-over-year and from $11.6 billion in 2019. The company has essentially become debt-free over the last 4 years while maintaining positive cash flow during the same period. So if the company did decide to surprise shareholders with a dividend, one thing they wouldn&#39;t have to worry about paying back is debt.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/921c46386a7253f26ccf5b0bd1ee2b6c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"328\"/></p><p>TSLA investor presentation</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_3794007412\">Risks</h2><p>Although the company doesn&#39;t have to worry about refinancing a huge debt load at higher rates like many other companies, the current macro environment has affected them. High interest rates and the threat of a recession take a toll on consumer spending as seen by the high credit card debt. Recent data from the Federal Reserve showed American credit card debt soared to $1.3 trillion in Q2 of this year. Furthermore, the average credit card interest rate was 22.16% in May. And while most consumers don&#39;t buy cars with their credit cards, this does show that many are allocating their funds elsewhere, which leaves less room for spending on items like Tesla cars in the near-term.</p><p>So in short this reduces the affordability of cars. And this has forced Tesla to lower its cost because the interest payments actually increase the price of the car. All the while things such as production costs and the price of raw materials continue to rise. Then there&#39;s the expected Q3 volume decline due to factory upgrades. All of these I consider short to medium-term headwinds but headwinds nonetheless. As the economy stabilizes over the next several quarters I expect production to pick back up and the highly anticipated Cybertruck to become a massive hit with customers.</p><h2 id=\"id_343261467\">Valuation</h2><p>One thing that has always been associated with Tesla was the word overvalued. I honestly don&#39;t remember a time when it wasn&#39;t. The stock currently has a P/E ratio of 71.24 at time of writing making it extremely overvalued. Exactly a year ago on September 8th, the stock was trading at $289 and has since seen its price decline by roughly 8.2%. The time to buy this stock was at the beginning of the year when it reached a price of nearly $100. With an average price target of $252 I just don&#39;t think it offers investors enough margin of safety at the current price.</p><p>With tax-loss harvesting season coming soon investors may just get a chance add on a pullback in price, although I can&#39;t see the price dropping that low. With its recent stock split history who knows, maybe the company will split its stock again in 2024. In the last 3 years the company has done two stock splits, once in 2020 and once in 2022. Known for its overvaluation, I wouldn&#39;t be surprised to see another in the near-future.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0ac5df2b7b10cb8c8075cfcad207114\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"386\"/></p><p>Y charts</p><p></p><h2 id=\"id_461651957\">Conclusion</h2><p>Although many don&#39;t invest in Tesla with hopes of the stock paying a dividend, in 2022 there were brief talks of the company paying one. Since then I haven&#39;t heard talks of any kind in reference to this. It could still be a part of the EV giant&#39;s future plans, I don&#39;t see this happening anytime soon as the stock is focused on growth.</p><p>Although TSLA is a capital-intensive business, the company has managed to grow its free cash flow and decrease its debt over the last several years, which is impressive. With two stock splits in the last three years and the continued growth of the company, maybe investors could potentially see the dividend talks come to fruition over the next few years.</p><p>For those looking for growth, I think TSLA is a great addition on a pullback closer to the $200 price range or with another stock split. With tax-loss harvesting season approaching soon and a looming recession, investors could see the stock&#39;s price fall over these next several weeks potentially offering a more attractive entry price for those looking to invest. Although quality normally trades at a premium, TSLA&#39;s P/E of 71 is unjustifiable. As previously mentioned the stock is normally always overvalued since it is very popular amongst investors. I do see the company continuing its dominance in the EV space for many years to come.</p><p>If Tesla, Inc. does decide to conduct another stock split and implement a dividend, I will most likely open a position. Until then, I rate TSLA a hold.</p><p>Editor&#39;s Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) is a growth stock, not a dividend stock. Similar to two other popular stocks amongst investors, Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL). Along with Meta Platforms (META), these are some of the most recognizable businesses in the world. And for good reason. In my opinion they all offer investors high growth, and I view them as long-term holds. But as solely a dividend investor, which you can tell by my name, I don't hold any of these in my portfolio.Out of the big four, only one pays a dividend, and that's AAPL. I wrote an article on them last month stating that the dividend yield was too low for a stock that generates the kind of cash flow the tech giant does. I understand many investors don't hold AAPL for the dividend but for the growth. Some say it's not even considered a dividend stock. While I agree many investors don't hold them for the dividend, it is indeed a dividend stock. It pays a quarterly dividend so by definition it's exactly that.But enough about Apple. I'm not sure if many readers remember when billionaire Elon Musk stated he wanted to pay Tesla shareholders a dividend. But I do! I was once a shareholder in the electric vehicle (\"EV\") company, but sold to focus on building a stream of income to live off within the next several years. And I know although some companies do not pay a dividend, investors often create their own synthetic dividend.I'm well aware of this strategy, and even though it may work for some, I'm not a fan. I buy my stocks with the purpose of holding them forever unless the fundamentals change or the stock is severely underperforming in my portfolio and I see a better opportunity elsewhere. If the EV giant does indeed decide to pay shareholders a dividend, I might reconsider buying.Where's The Dividend?In March of 2022, there were talks that Tesla would ask at its annual shareholder meeting for an increase in the number of authorized shares in order to enable a stock split of the company. This would be the second time in 2 years, only this time so the EV maker could possibly pay a dividend. In August of the same year, Tesla completed a 3-for-1 stock split and after the dividend talks went silent.Little more than a year a half later, still no dividend. And it doesn't seem like paying a dividend is a priority for the company, either. To be fair, Tesla is still in its growth stages, so a dividend in the near future doesn't seem all that likely. See below for Seeking Alpha's dividend estimates. As you can see, the stock would have a very low yield, similar to that of Apple's.Seeking AlphaCan Tesla Support Paying A Dividend?To be honest, I don't think CEO's like Warren Buffett and Elon Musk are fond of their companies paying dividends. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is another company with a huge cash flow that doesn't pay a dividend. But one thing for sure is that they love collecting them! Warren Buffett is an avid dividend collector like myself. Only difference besides the spelling of the name is the amount he collects. The amount I collect in comparison is minuscule. He has many decades of collecting dividends ahead of me. But enough about that.There are many companies that pay dividends and many that do not. In the current macro environment, dividend collecting has seemingly become more attractive. With the FED still battling inflation and food & gas prices still soaring, collecting a check every week or month can help soften the blow.As big as TSLA is, it still had its fair share of problems in 2022. From high interest rates to forced shutdowns. Additionally, the EV maker saw its operating cash flow decrease Q3 '22 to Q1 '23. But despite that, Tesla delivered over 1.3 million cars and achieved a 17% operating margin, the highest among any volume carmaker. They also generated $12.5 billion in net income and $7.5 billion in free cash flow.And while CAPEX has doubled over the last two years, the company has managed to triple its cash from operations during the same time. Tesla grew its CFO from $5.9 billion in 2020 to $14.7 billion at the end of 2022. In 2021 the EV maker's free cash flow (\"FCF\") was roughly $5 billion. This is a testament to Tesla as a company, because having positive free cash flow in a capital-intensive business, that also invests massive amount of its money into new technology, isn't easy. Especially in the current environment, so it's obvious they're doing something right.TSLA investor presentationDividend ForecastHypothetically speaking, using the middle of Seeking Alpha's projection, and giving them a dividend yield similar to AAPL, if TSLA did decide to pay an annual dividend of $1.37, that would equal a quarterly dividend of $0.3425 a share. With 3.48 billion current shares outstanding, this would equal a payout of almost $1.192 billion a quarter.To put this into perspective, TSLA's FCF for the last two quarters were $0.4 billion in Q1 and $1.0 billion in Q2. Now, I'm not saying that TSLA would pay a dividend that high if they did decide to pay one, I just used the annual $1.37 hypothetically because it was similar to AAPL and both are considered high-growth businesses. I assume that they would start with a very small dividend of $0.25 or less if they did decide on rewarding shareholders due to the capital-intensive nature of the business.SimplySafeDividendsGrowth AheadDuring Q2 earnings their CEO Elon Musk stated that the company achieved record vehicle production and deliveries, and record revenue of about $25 billion in a single quarter. Additionally, the Model Y became the best-selling vehicle globally of any kind in Q1, surpassing the Toyota (TM) Corolla. They are also expecting to deliver the highly anticipated Cybertruck in Q3. And although they are expecting Q3 production to be down due to factory upgrades, they're still expecting to deliver 1.8 million vehicles this year.This is an increase of 38.46% year-over-year. As you can see, TSLA has continued to increase its production and vehicles quarter-over-quarter since Q3 of 2020, and I see this moving forward. Due to rising costs in gas and the demand for electric cars, I see Tesla continuing to dominate the EV space for many years to come. By 2030 it is expected EV's will omit the need for 5 million barrels of oil a day. This trend also has a positive effect on battery production and supply chains. And with investments into artificial intelligence and the Tesla Megapack, these will continue to be profitable contributors for the company.TSLA investor presentationHealthy Balance SheetOne thing I don't believe gets talked about enough with Tesla is their balance sheet. The amount of debt a company has can be a huge factor in dividend payments and growth. A high-quality company with too much debt on its balance sheet will most likely focus on paying it down before committing to a dividend.Tesla's balance sheet further affirms its quality, especially in the current high interest rate environment. A lot of fast-growing companies will often take on a lot of debt to fund their growth, but TSLA has avoided this which speaks volumes to their CEO Elon Musk and his team.One thing that's impressive is how the company has managed to increase their cash balance while simultaneously decreasing their debt load over the last year. This time frame includes the fastest rate hike in history and production of the Cybertruck. At the end of Q2 TSLA had over $23 billion in cash with just $872 million in debt. To put this in perspective, this has decreased from $2.8 billion year-over-year and from $11.6 billion in 2019. The company has essentially become debt-free over the last 4 years while maintaining positive cash flow during the same period. So if the company did decide to surprise shareholders with a dividend, one thing they wouldn't have to worry about paying back is debt.TSLA investor presentationRisksAlthough the company doesn't have to worry about refinancing a huge debt load at higher rates like many other companies, the current macro environment has affected them. High interest rates and the threat of a recession take a toll on consumer spending as seen by the high credit card debt. Recent data from the Federal Reserve showed American credit card debt soared to $1.3 trillion in Q2 of this year. Furthermore, the average credit card interest rate was 22.16% in May. And while most consumers don't buy cars with their credit cards, this does show that many are allocating their funds elsewhere, which leaves less room for spending on items like Tesla cars in the near-term.So in short this reduces the affordability of cars. And this has forced Tesla to lower its cost because the interest payments actually increase the price of the car. All the while things such as production costs and the price of raw materials continue to rise. Then there's the expected Q3 volume decline due to factory upgrades. All of these I consider short to medium-term headwinds but headwinds nonetheless. As the economy stabilizes over the next several quarters I expect production to pick back up and the highly anticipated Cybertruck to become a massive hit with customers.ValuationOne thing that has always been associated with Tesla was the word overvalued. I honestly don't remember a time when it wasn't. The stock currently has a P/E ratio of 71.24 at time of writing making it extremely overvalued. Exactly a year ago on September 8th, the stock was trading at $289 and has since seen its price decline by roughly 8.2%. The time to buy this stock was at the beginning of the year when it reached a price of nearly $100. With an average price target of $252 I just don't think it offers investors enough margin of safety at the current price.With tax-loss harvesting season coming soon investors may just get a chance add on a pullback in price, although I can't see the price dropping that low. With its recent stock split history who knows, maybe the company will split its stock again in 2024. In the last 3 years the company has done two stock splits, once in 2020 and once in 2022. Known for its overvaluation, I wouldn't be surprised to see another in the near-future.Y chartsConclusionAlthough many don't invest in Tesla with hopes of the stock paying a dividend, in 2022 there were brief talks of the company paying one. Since then I haven't heard talks of any kind in reference to this. It could still be a part of the EV giant's future plans, I don't see this happening anytime soon as the stock is focused on growth.Although TSLA is a capital-intensive business, the company has managed to grow its free cash flow and decrease its debt over the last several years, which is impressive. With two stock splits in the last three years and the continued growth of the company, maybe investors could potentially see the dividend talks come to fruition over the next few years.For those looking for growth, I think TSLA is a great addition on a pullback closer to the $200 price range or with another stock split. With tax-loss harvesting season approaching soon and a looming recession, investors could see the stock's price fall over these next several weeks potentially offering a more attractive entry price for those looking to invest. Although quality normally trades at a premium, TSLA's P/E of 71 is unjustifiable. As previously mentioned the stock is normally always overvalued since it is very popular amongst investors. I do see the company continuing its dominance in the EV space for many years to come.If Tesla, Inc. does decide to conduct another stock split and implement a dividend, I will most likely open a position. Until then, I rate TSLA a hold.Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

But jobless claims, though still on a downward trajectory, ticked higher last week.\nThe data did little to move the needle with respect to expectations that the Fed is unlikely tip its hand regarding the taper timeline when Chairman Jerome Powell unmutes and delivers his speech at Friday's virtual Jackson Hole Symposium.\n\"We’re going to see a lot of market participants analyze every word (Powell) uses, but at the end of the day, they will begin tapering,\" Horneman said. \"I’m more concerned about the speed at which they taper. What are they going to start with? That will give us a clearer indication as whether they’re getting more hawkish.\"\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 192.38 points, or 0.54%, to 35,213.12, the S&P 500 lost 26.19 points, or 0.58%, to 4,470 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 96.05 points, or 0.64%, to 14,945.81.\nOf the 11 major sectors in the S&P 500, all but real estate ended the session lower, with energy stocks suffering the steepest percentage loss.\nDiscount retailers Dollar General Corp and Dollar Tree Inc slid 3.8% and 12.1%, respectively, after warning higher transportation costs will hurt their bottom lines.\nCoty Inc jumped 14.7% after the cosmetics firm said it expects to post full-year sales growth for the first time in three years.\nSalesforce.com Inc hiked its earnings forecast as the shift to a hybrid work model is expected to fuel strong demand. Its shares advanced 2.7%.\nNetApp Inc jumped 4.7% as brokerages raised their price targets in the wake of the cloud computing firm's better-than-expected 2022 earnings outlook.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.99-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.83-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted 31 new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 82 new highs and 39 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 8.27 billion shares, compared with the 8.96 billion average over the last 20 trading days.

The Fed has not even started trying to figure out how long they need to stay at the terminal level once they reach it.\" (Addd 3:26 PM ET.)The economy has expanded at a solid pace, he said. And while the labor market has eased somewhat, labor demand still exceeds worker supply, he said.Inflation has moderated since the middle of last year and inflation expectations remain \"well-anchored.\" Still, getting inflation down to the Fed's goal of 2% \"has a long way to go.\"\"Today's FOMC is not really about whether one more hike will be a game changer at this stage of the hiking cycle. It is more about the Fed showing a resolute stance to keep going if future data suggest there is more work required. The Fed has not even started trying to figure out how long they need to stay at the terminal level once they reach it.\"3:24 PM ET: Press conference concludes. The S&P fell 0.5%, the Nasdaq -0.9%, and the Dow +0.2%, again close to session lows.3:23 PM ET: \"Overall, households are in good shape,\" however surveys show a different picture because consumers \"hate inflation,\" Powell said.3:20 PM ET: There are many explanations for why the U.S. economy has been stronger than many expected, Powell said.The neutral interest rate may be higher than thought, househod and business balance sheets were stronger than thought.3:17 PM ET: \"We're not looking for a decrease in consumer spending. It's s good thing that the economy is strong... (But) if the economy comes in stronger than expected, then that means the Fed would have to do more in monetary policy.\"3:10 PM ET: \"Energy prices are very important for the consumer... it really comes down to how persistent that increase is,\" Powell said. The Fed tends to look through short-term energy price moves because it usually isn't a good indicator of the strength of the economy, he added.3:09 PM ET: \"We don't comment on government shutdowns.\" If a government shutdown lasts long enough, the Fed wouldn't get the economic data that it normally gets, and the Fed \"will just have to deal with that.\"3:08 PM ET: The Fed is moving more slowly and carefully as the risks of overtightening become more closely balanced with the risk of doing too little, Powll said.3:05 PM ET: The S&P 500 is down 0.2%, the Nasdaq -0.5%,and the Dow +0.3%, all near seession lows.2:59 PM ET: There is a long list of external factors that could affect the economic outlook. \"There's so much uncertainty around these things,\" such as the UAW strike, but the Fed has to assess its impact on the economy, he said.2:57 PM ET: \"The time will come at some point, and I'm not saying when, when it's appropriate to cut,\" Powell said.2:53 PM ET: \"You know 'sufficiently restrictive' (rate) only when you see it.\" Right now, the Fed is at the stage where it's still trying to figure out where \"sufficiently restrictive\" is, he said.2:50 PM ET: Powell said he always thought there's a plausible path for a \"soft landing,\" but declined to call it his baseline expectation. He didn't want to \"handicap\" its likelihood.\"We've been seeing progress without higher unemployment,\" he noted.2:45 PM ET: \"We're fairly close, we think, to where we think we need to get,\" in terms of the federal funds rate.2:44 PM ET: \"We want to see that the good inflation data we've received for three months is more than just three months,\" Powell said.2:42 PM ET: The Fed wants to get more data to provide evidence that it has reached a sufficiently restrictive stance. But the central bankers aren't there yet, Powell said.2:40 PM ET: The Fed will continue to make its decisions on a meeting-by-meeting basis.Update at 2:39 PM ET: \"Real\" interest rates are higher than the neutral rate, he said, meaning the fed funds rate is in restrictive territory that would inhibit economic growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
