This year is particularly suspenseful as companies match up against the second quarter of 2020, where some of them got a huge pandemic boost, and others got a huge pandemic bashing. Many companies have bounced back big, topping 2019 numbers, and others have demonstrated lackluster growth in the face of tough comparisons.</p>\n<p>Investors have rewarded stocks accordingly.

That's why I'm going with <b>Airbnb</b>(NASDAQ:ABNB),<b>Walt Disney</b>(NYSE:DIS), and <b>Upstart Holdings</b>(NASDAQ:UPST)as hot stocks to buy this month.

But the second quarter was just monstrous, with revenue increasing 299% and gross booking value increasing 320% year over year.</p>\n<p>That's way better than a simple pandemic comparison. And all the reasons it made such a fierce recovery are the same ones why it has so much potential to stay ahead of traditional travel and widen its lead. Most of those reasons flow from the same source: its adaptive and flexible model. That means that as travel shifts, Airbnb shifts along with it.</p>\n<p>As signs of recovery come into view, that became visible in a few ways. One was an increase in stays of a month or more. More people are using Airbnb rentals as a home rather than a vacation, which isn't nearly as feasible in traditional travel accommodations. Another is customers branching out into off-the-beaten-path destinations. That's also more challenging with standard hotels, which you can't always find in far-flung locations.</p>\n<p>One way to see Airbnb's strength is how it turns it's nights booked into revenue. Nights booked increased 197% in Q2 year over year, and they decreased 1% from 2019. But Airbnb's revenue skyrocketed past that number. That means it's making more money from its bookings, and it demonstrates resilience. It's also turning more of that revenue into profit, as net loss contracted from over $576 million in Q2 2020, and more than $1 billion in Q1 2021, to $68 million in Q2 2021.</p>\n<p>Despite what seemed like a breakout quarter, investors snubbed the travel company. That might be because it's already somewhat expensive, trading at almost 20 times sales. But that's typical for a growth company, and it shouldn't stop you from taking a position.</p>\n<p><b>Disney's back in action</b></p>\n<p>Disney, on the other hand, is a perpetual crowd pleaser, both in its parks and in the markets. And it came through big in the third quarter, growing revenue 45%. That reversed the 42% decline in Q3 2020, despite parks functioning at limited capacity and other experiences still not running at all. All told, third-quarter sales came in just 16% below the same period of 2019, before the start of the coronavirus pandemic</p>\n<p>Parks revenue rebounded with a more than 300% increase in Q3, or about two-thirds of the 2019 metric, and it accounted for about a quarter of the company's total sales. Media and entertainment distribution, the newly structured content-based segment, increased 18%. Streaming remained the most aggressive revenue driver in Q3, reaching almost 174 million accounts for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ and topping estimates.</p>\n<p>The compelling story for Disney stock comes from all of its businesses combined. There simply isn't another media company on the global scene that combines best-in-class parks and resorts with an unrivaled film library. CEO Bob Chapek has promised lots of new content, including Marvel and Star Wars series that are likely to be big winners and drive membership.</p>\n<p>Disney stock is down 3% year to date as of this writing, but there's so much upside to unlock for the top stock in the entertainment sector.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40f65de12a8faaa8c437e2eeaa6ada13\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1454\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>Artificial intelligence for banking</b></p>\n<p>Despite a slow initial public offering in December, Upstart exploded into one of the hottest stocks on the market, gaining 420% year to date.

We then selected the ticker of one follower who answered correctly and analyzed the stock’s chart.</p>\n<p>The trivia question was: How much Doge does Mark Cuban own? Twitter user @AndyBriski answered correctly with $494, and requested<b> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla Motors</a></b> for technical analysis.</p>\n<p><b>The Tesla Chart:</b> Tesla’s stock has been trading in a fairly consistent uptrend since May 19 when it hit a low of $546.98 and bounced. The stock has also formed into a triangle pattern and on the past three trading days Tesla’s stock has tested the bottom ascending trendline of the pattern and support and held above it. The top descending line of the pattern began on April 14 and Tesla’s stock has tested it as resistance on nine separate occasions and failed to break up from it.</p>\n<p><b>A triangle pattern is neither bullish nor bearish and traders can watch for the break up or breakdown from the pattern to take a position. The measured move of a break from a triangle pattern is the distance between the highest and lowest price at the beginning of the pattern. This indicates Tesla’s stock could rise or fall $217 when it breaks from the pattern.</b></p>\n<p>Tesla closed Thursday down slightly lower but on lower-than-average daily volume which indicates consolidation. The stock has a relative strength index of about 47% which is comfortable for both the bulls and the bears.</p>\n<p>Tesla is trading slightly below the eight-day and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMA), which is short-term bearish. The eight-day EMA is trending above the 21-day, however, which is a good sign for the bulls. Tesla will need to regain support of both the moving averages in the near future to avoid the eight-day crossing below the 21-day EMA.</p>\n<p>The stock is trading above the 200-day simple moving average (SMA), which indicates overall sentiment in the stock is bullish.

By investing in a dividend ETF, you'll earn quarterly or annual dividend payments in addition to the fund's normal earnings.</p>\n<p>By investing consistently over time, you could build a source of passive income with dividend ETFs.

Growth ETFs\nA growth ETF is a fund that contains stocks with higher-than-average growth rates. The advantage of this type of investment is that you may earn higher returns than you would with a broad-market fund like an S&P 500 ETF.\nThe downside, though, is that growth ETFs can be on the riskier side. High-growth stocks can be more volatile than their more established counterparts, so you may see more ups and downs with this type of fund than you would with an S&P 500 ETF.\nThat said, many growth ETFs include companies that have experienced phenomenal growth but are also strong businesses, such as Amazon.com, Apple, and Microsoft. These organizations are still subject to volatility in the short term, but it's very likely they'll experience long-term growth.\nWhere to get started: It's important to choose carefully when investing in a growth ETF, because not all funds are created equal. Some funds only contain smaller organizations from niche industries, for example, which poses more risk than a fund that includes large corporations from a variety of industries. A few of the stronger growth ETFs include:\n\nVanguard Growth Index Fund ETF Shares \niShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF \nNASDAQ-100 Index ETF \n\n3. Dividend ETFs\nA dividend ETF is a collection of stocks that will actually pay you to own them. Some companies pay a portion of their profits back to shareholders each quarter or year, which is called a dividend. By investing in a dividend ETF, you'll earn quarterly or annual dividend payments in addition to the fund's normal earnings.\nBy investing consistently over time, you could build a source of passive income with dividend ETFs. Most funds also offer the opportunity to reinvest your dividends and buy more shares of that particular ETF. By reinvesting, you can gradually buy more shares without having to pay more money out of pocket. And the more shares you own, the more you'll receive in dividends.\nWhere to get started: As with growth ETFs, all dividend ETFs are different and offer varying levels of risk and reward. Some of the most popular funds include:\n\nVanguard Dividend Appreciation Index Fund ETF Shares \niShares Core High Dividend ETF \nSchwab US Dividend Equity ETF \n\nChoosing the right investments isn't as challenging as it may seem. By building a portfolio filled with solid funds, you'll be on your way to generating long-term wealth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":351,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":897990370,"gmtCreate":1628866209690,"gmtModify":1676529880788,"author":{"id":"4091759683366290","authorId":"4091759683366290","name":"staciex","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091759683366290","authorIdStr":"4091759683366290"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy buy!!","listText":"Buy buy buy!!","text":"Buy buy buy!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/897990370","repostId":"2159821885","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2159821885","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1628865635,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2159821885?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-13 22:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft Could Be A Buy For Its Upcoming Dividend","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2159821885","media":"Simply Wall St.","summary":"Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) stock is about to trade ex-dividend in 4 days.

S&P 500 ETFs</h2>\n<p>An <b>S&P 500</b> ETF is a group of stocks that is designed to mirror the performance of the S&P 500 index itself. That means each of these funds contains around 500 stocks from the largest U.S.-based companies.</p>\n<p>This type of investment is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the more stable and lower-risk options. While the S&P 500 does experience short-term volatility, it's earned an average rate of return of around 10% per year since its inception. In other words, the highs and lows each year average out to around 10% annually over time.</p>\n<p>These funds are also very likely to recover from market crashes. The S&P 500 has endured countless corrections and crashes over the years, but it's survived each and every one so far. Although there are never any guarantees in investing, there's a very good chance it will recover from any future crashes as well.</p>\n<p><b>Where to get started:</b> There are many S&P 500 ETFs to choose from, and they're all similar.

Growth ETFs</h2>\n<p>A growth ETF is a fund that contains stocks with higher-than-average growth rates. The advantage of this type of investment is that you may earn higher returns than you would with a broad-market fund like an S&P 500 ETF.</p>\n<p>The downside, though, is that growth ETFs can be on the riskier side. High-growth stocks can be more volatile than their more established counterparts, so you may see more ups and downs with this type of fund than you would with an S&P 500 ETF.</p>\n<p>That said, many growth ETFs include companies that have experienced phenomenal growth but are also strong businesses, such as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon.com</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>. These organizations are still subject to volatility in the short term, but it's very likely they'll experience long-term growth.</p>\n<p><b>Where to get started:</b> It's important to choose carefully when investing in a growth ETF, because not all funds are created equal. Some funds only contain smaller organizations from niche industries, for example, which poses more risk than a fund that includes large corporations from a variety of industries. A few of the stronger growth ETFs include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VUG\">Vanguard Growth Index Fund ETF Shares</a> </b></li>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IWO\">iShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF</a> </b></li>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QQQ\">NASDAQ-100 Index ETF</a> </b></li>\n</ul>\n<h2>3. Dividend ETFs</h2>\n<p>A dividend ETF is a collection of stocks that will actually pay you to own them. Some companies pay a portion of their profits back to shareholders each quarter or year, which is called a dividend. By investing in a dividend ETF, you'll earn quarterly or annual dividend payments in addition to the fund's normal earnings.</p>\n<p>By investing consistently over time, you could build a source of passive income with dividend ETFs. Most funds also offer the opportunity to reinvest your dividends and buy more shares of that particular ETF. By reinvesting, you can gradually buy more shares without having to pay more money out of pocket. And the more shares you own, the more you'll receive in dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Where to get started:</b> As with growth ETFs, all dividend ETFs are different and offer varying levels of risk and reward. Some of the most popular funds include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VIG\">Vanguard Dividend Appreciation Index Fund ETF Shares</a> </b></li>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HDV\">iShares Core High Dividend ETF</a> </b></li>\n <li><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SCHD\">Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF</a> </b></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Choosing the right investments isn't as challenging as it may seem.

If you're new to the stock market, all of those choices can be overwhelming.\nThe good news is that it's easier than you may think to create a solid core portfolio. These three types of investments are a fantastic choice regardless of where you are on your investing journey, and they can help send your savings to the moon.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. S&P 500 ETFs\nAn S&P 500 ETF is a group of stocks that is designed to mirror the performance of the S&P 500 index itself. That means each of these funds contains around 500 stocks from the largest U.S.-based companies.\nThis type of investment is one of the more stable and lower-risk options. While the S&P 500 does experience short-term volatility, it's earned an average rate of return of around 10% per year since its inception. In other words, the highs and lows each year average out to around 10% annually over time.\nThese funds are also very likely to recover from market crashes. The S&P 500 has endured countless corrections and crashes over the years, but it's survived each and every one so far. Although there are never any guarantees in investing, there's a very good chance it will recover from any future crashes as well.\nWhere to get started: There are many S&P 500 ETFs to choose from, and they're all similar. Some of the best options include:\n\nVanguard S&P 500 ETF \niShares Core S&P 500 ETF \nS&P500 ETF \n\n2. Growth ETFs\nA growth ETF is a fund that contains stocks with higher-than-average growth rates. The advantage of this type of investment is that you may earn higher returns than you would with a broad-market fund like an S&P 500 ETF.\nThe downside, though, is that growth ETFs can be on the riskier side. High-growth stocks can be more volatile than their more established counterparts, so you may see more ups and downs with this type of fund than you would with an S&P 500 ETF.\nThat said, many growth ETFs include companies that have experienced phenomenal growth but are also strong businesses, such as Amazon.com, Apple, and Microsoft. These organizations are still subject to volatility in the short term, but it's very likely they'll experience long-term growth.\nWhere to get started: It's important to choose carefully when investing in a growth ETF, because not all funds are created equal. Some funds only contain smaller organizations from niche industries, for example, which poses more risk than a fund that includes large corporations from a variety of industries. A few of the stronger growth ETFs include:\n\nVanguard Growth Index Fund ETF Shares \niShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF \nNASDAQ-100 Index ETF \n\n3. Dividend ETFs\nA dividend ETF is a collection of stocks that will actually pay you to own them. Some companies pay a portion of their profits back to shareholders each quarter or year, which is called a dividend. By investing in a dividend ETF, you'll earn quarterly or annual dividend payments in addition to the fund's normal earnings.\nBy investing consistently over time, you could build a source of passive income with dividend ETFs. Most funds also offer the opportunity to reinvest your dividends and buy more shares of that particular ETF. By reinvesting, you can gradually buy more shares without having to pay more money out of pocket. And the more shares you own, the more you'll receive in dividends.\nWhere to get started: As with growth ETFs, all dividend ETFs are different and offer varying levels of risk and reward. Some of the most popular funds include:\n\nVanguard Dividend Appreciation Index Fund ETF Shares \niShares Core High Dividend ETF \nSchwab US Dividend Equity ETF \n\nChoosing the right investments isn't as challenging as it may seem. By building a portfolio filled with solid funds, you'll be on your way to generating long-term wealth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":351,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835473514,"gmtCreate":1629736373838,"gmtModify":1676530117252,"author":{"id":"4091759683366290","authorId":"4091759683366290","name":"staciex","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091759683366290","authorIdStr":"4091759683366290"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Should i buy??","listText":"Should i buy??","text":"Should i buy??","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835473514","repostId":"1102818813","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102818813","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629712463,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102818813?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-23 17:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Hot Stocks to Buy in August","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102818813","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"They're all growing at supercharged rates, but their stock prices haven't necessarily followed.","content":"<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Airbnb's flexible model gave it leverage over the past few months.</li>\n <li>Disney's parks are still not fully open, but they're recovering.</li>\n <li>Though Upstart is pricy, the company is growing fast.</li>\n</ul>\n<p></p>\n<p>August is the thick of the second-quarter earnings season.

But the second quarter was just monstrous, with revenue increasing 299% and gross booking value increasing 320% year over year.</p>\n<p>That's way better than a simple pandemic comparison. And all the reasons it made such a fierce recovery are the same ones why it has so much potential to stay ahead of traditional travel and widen its lead. Most of those reasons flow from the same source: its adaptive and flexible model. That means that as travel shifts, Airbnb shifts along with it.</p>\n<p>As signs of recovery come into view, that became visible in a few ways. One was an increase in stays of a month or more. More people are using Airbnb rentals as a home rather than a vacation, which isn't nearly as feasible in traditional travel accommodations. Another is customers branching out into off-the-beaten-path destinations. That's also more challenging with standard hotels, which you can't always find in far-flung locations.</p>\n<p>One way to see Airbnb's strength is how it turns it's nights booked into revenue. Nights booked increased 197% in Q2 year over year, and they decreased 1% from 2019. But Airbnb's revenue skyrocketed past that number. That means it's making more money from its bookings, and it demonstrates resilience. It's also turning more of that revenue into profit, as net loss contracted from over $576 million in Q2 2020, and more than $1 billion in Q1 2021, to $68 million in Q2 2021.</p>\n<p>Despite what seemed like a breakout quarter, investors snubbed the travel company.

But that's typical for a growth company, and it shouldn't stop you from taking a position.</p>\n<p><b>Disney's back in action</b></p>\n<p>Disney, on the other hand, is a perpetual crowd pleaser, both in its parks and in the markets. And it came through big in the third quarter, growing revenue 45%. That reversed the 42% decline in Q3 2020, despite parks functioning at limited capacity and other experiences still not running at all. All told, third-quarter sales came in just 16% below the same period of 2019, before the start of the coronavirus pandemic</p>\n<p>Parks revenue rebounded with a more than 300% increase in Q3, or about two-thirds of the 2019 metric, and it accounted for about a quarter of the company's total sales. Media and entertainment distribution, the newly structured content-based segment, increased 18%. Streaming remained the most aggressive revenue driver in Q3, reaching almost 174 million accounts for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ and topping estimates.</p>\n<p>The compelling story for Disney stock comes from all of its businesses combined. There simply isn't another media company on the global scene that combines best-in-class parks and resorts with an unrivaled film library. CEO Bob Chapek has promised lots of new content, including Marvel and Star Wars series that are likely to be big winners and drive membership.</p>\n<p>Disney stock is down 3% year to date as of this writing, but there's so much upside to unlock for the top stock in the entertainment sector.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40f65de12a8faaa8c437e2eeaa6ada13\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1454\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>Artificial intelligence for banking</b></p>\n<p>Despite a slow initial public offering in December, Upstart exploded into one of the hottest stocks on the market, gaining 420% year to date. Investors finally caught onto the company's vast potential offering an artificial intelligence platform for small banking clients.</p>\n<p>Upstart's platform evaluates customer creditworthiness based on thousands of data points for an accurate risk assessment. This results in more approvals, putting more money in the client bank's coffers with less risk involved, a true win-win.</p>\n<p>\"Our second-quarter results continue to show why Upstart has the potential to be among the world's largest and most impactful fintechs,\" Upstart CEO Dave Girouard said in the company's Q2 earnings release. That confidence is warranted when you see what kind of growth Upstart is experiencing.</p>\n<p>In the second quarter, revenue increased more than 1,000%, and loans originated increased more than 1,600%. It moved to a profit from a loss last year, and it expects similarly spectacular results in the third quarter.</p>\n<p>The only problem with Upstart stock is how expensive the stock has become over the past few months. It now trades at nearly 300 times trailing-12-month earnings. That's a hefty premium. Keep in mind, though, many of today's greatest all-time gainers have traded at such a premium at one time or another. So while it may take time for the stocks to catch up to this pricy valuation, the way things are going and look to be continuing, you'll still have a lot of bang for your buck.</p>\n<p></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Hot Stocks to Buy in August</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Hot Stocks to Buy in August\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-23 17:54 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/22/3-hot-stocks-to-buy-in-august/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nAirbnb's flexible model gave it leverage over the past few months.\nDisney's parks are still not fully open, but they're recovering.\nThough Upstart is pricy, the company is growing fast.\n\n\n...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/22/3-hot-stocks-to-buy-in-august/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"DIS":"迪士尼","UPST":"Upstart Holdings, Inc.","ABNB":"爱彼迎"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/22/3-hot-stocks-to-buy-in-august/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1102818813","content_text":"Key Points\n\nAirbnb's flexible model gave it leverage over the past few months.\nDisney's parks are still not fully open, but they're recovering.\nThough Upstart is pricy, the company is growing fast.\n\n\nAugust is the thick of the second-quarter earnings season.

CEO Bob Chapek has promised lots of new content, including Marvel and Star Wars series that are likely to be big winners and drive membership.\nDisney stock is down 3% year to date as of this writing, but there's so much upside to unlock for the top stock in the entertainment sector.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nArtificial intelligence for banking\nDespite a slow initial public offering in December, Upstart exploded into one of the hottest stocks on the market, gaining 420% year to date. Investors finally caught onto the company's vast potential offering an artificial intelligence platform for small banking clients.\nUpstart's platform evaluates customer creditworthiness based on thousands of data points for an accurate risk assessment. This results in more approvals, putting more money in the client bank's coffers with less risk involved, a true win-win.\n\"Our second-quarter results continue to show why Upstart has the potential to be among the world's largest and most impactful fintechs,\" Upstart CEO Dave Girouard said in the company's Q2 earnings release. That confidence is warranted when you see what kind of growth Upstart is experiencing.\nIn the second quarter, revenue increased more than 1,000%, and loans originated increased more than 1,600%. It moved to a profit from a loss last year, and it expects similarly spectacular results in the third quarter.\nThe only problem with Upstart stock is how expensive the stock has become over the past few months. It now trades at nearly 300 times trailing-12-month earnings. That's a hefty premium. Keep in mind, though, many of today's greatest all-time gainers have traded at such a premium at one time or another. So while it may take time for the stocks to catch up to this pricy valuation, the way things are going and look to be continuing, you'll still have a lot of bang for your buck.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":836838379,"gmtCreate":1629468837191,"gmtModify":1676530051564,"author":{"id":"4091759683366290","authorId":"4091759683366290","name":"staciex","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4091759683366290","authorIdStr":"4091759683366290"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Whee!!","listText":"Whee!!","text":"Whee!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/836838379","repostId":"1167670408","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":343,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
