Right now, BNGO stock trades at around the same price as it did before its massive break out to begin 2021. In turn, with this incredible performance last year and its massive potential in genomic analysis, it could be a multi-bagger in the future. Nevertheless, the stock isn’t for the faint of heart and is perhaps best suited for risk-taking investors — and here’s why.</p><p>The healthcare diagnostics firm has attracted a slew of conflicting opinions from market experts and investors. And while some believe in the long-term value of its pioneering genome analysis technology, others might see the enormous risks associated with its business.</p><p>Of course, investing in firms such as Bionano will always come with a ton of risks. However, the upside potential of its business is immense — and with a debt-free capital structure, it can turn on the afterburners with its expansion plans.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><b><u>BNGO</u></b></td><td>Bionano Genomics</td><td>$2.58</td></tr></tbody></table><p><b>Another Impressive Quarter</b></p><p>Bionano wrapped up another solid quarter after posting double-digit top-line growth in its third quarter. Its fourth-quarter sales of $6.3 million grew by 58% from the prior-year period. Moreover, they comfortably surpassed analyst estimates of $5.6 million for the quarter and the company’s preliminary projections in January. And its genome-mapping tool called Saphyr saw a 69% bump in installations last year compared to 2020.</p><p>Furthermore, for full-year 2021, the company’s sales shot up 111% from 2020 to $18 million, beating average analyst estimates of $17.3 million. Also, for 2022, the company predicts another 33% to 50% increase in sales.</p><p>However, perhaps the most exciting bit about the company is its business model, which can effectively lead to massive recurring income over time. In turn, the additional revenues can be used to develop new products and add to its competitive advantages. Saphyr can be used for various research and clinical niches, and the data output presented by the device is irreplicable, according to Bionano’s management. Therefore, Saphyr offers major competitive advantages at this time, giving it an edge over its competition.</p><p>Additionally, the company wants to build a sticky ecosystem of consumable products for its devices. In turn, preparation kits and sample chips are necessary for use with Saphyr, and these consumables will be an ongoing purchase for users. Thus, these essential tools can become a huge source of recurring revenue for Bionano in the future.</p><p><b>Shoring Up Finances</b></p><p>Bionano did well to cash in on its meme stock popularity and raise capital through issuing new shares. Its equity offerings diluted its stock by almost two-fold in 2021. But, the capital allowed the company to pay off debts and subsequently invest in its research and development (R&amp;D) efforts.</p><p>Before the pandemic, Bionano had a relatively decent balance sheet, with $17.3 million in its cash till. However, it wasn’t nearly enough to fund its lofty development plans. Hence, it was left with no option but to dilute its shareholding from 28 million shares in the fourth quarter of 2019 to 289.6 million. This represents a share dilution by tenfolds in a span of just a couple of years.</p><p>Nevertheless, it paid off $14.9 million in debt by the first half of 2021 and completed several acquisitions. Hence, Bionano had a sizeable cash balance of $24.6 million and $226 million in saleable securities after the fourth quarter. Its internal funds will come in handy in catering to its rising R&amp;D and other expenses, which widened its net loss by 76.2% in 2021.</p><p><b>Bottom Line On BNGO Stock</b></p><p>Overall, Bionano has been experiencing healthy momentum in its business in the past few quarters and has put forward highly encouraging guidance for this year. The company has immense potential to establish a leading position in genomic sequencing, assuming a more widespread adoption in the coming years.</p><p>Nevertheless, the risks are evident with the stock. Particularly, the firm’s penchant for diluting its shares is worrying for long-term investors.

Right now, BNGO stock trades at around the same price as it did before its massive break out to begin 2021. In turn, with this incredible performance last year and its massive potential in genomic analysis, it could be a multi-bagger in the future. Nevertheless, the stock isn’t for the faint of heart and is perhaps best suited for risk-taking investors — and here’s why.The healthcare diagnostics firm has attracted a slew of conflicting opinions from market experts and investors. And while some believe in the long-term value of its pioneering genome analysis technology, others might see the enormous risks associated with its business.Of course, investing in firms such as Bionano will always come with a ton of risks. However, the upside potential of its business is immense — and with a debt-free capital structure, it can turn on the afterburners with its expansion plans.BNGOBionano Genomics$2.58Another Impressive QuarterBionano wrapped up another solid quarter after posting double-digit top-line growth in its third quarter. Its fourth-quarter sales of $6.3 million grew by 58% from the prior-year period. Moreover, they comfortably surpassed analyst estimates of $5.6 million for the quarter and the company’s preliminary projections in January. And its genome-mapping tool called Saphyr saw a 69% bump in installations last year compared to 2020.Furthermore, for full-year 2021, the company’s sales shot up 111% from 2020 to $18 million, beating average analyst estimates of $17.3 million. Also, for 2022, the company predicts another 33% to 50% increase in sales.However, perhaps the most exciting bit about the company is its business model, which can effectively lead to massive recurring income over time. In turn, the additional revenues can be used to develop new products and add to its competitive advantages. Saphyr can be used for various research and clinical niches, and the data output presented by the device is irreplicable, according to Bionano’s management. Therefore, Saphyr offers major competitive advantages at this time, giving it an edge over its competition.Additionally, the company wants to build a sticky ecosystem of consumable products for its devices. In turn, preparation kits and sample chips are necessary for use with Saphyr, and these consumables will be an ongoing purchase for users. Thus, these essential tools can become a huge source of recurring revenue for Bionano in the future.Shoring Up FinancesBionano did well to cash in on its meme stock popularity and raise capital through issuing new shares. Its equity offerings diluted its stock by almost two-fold in 2021. But, the capital allowed the company to pay off debts and subsequently invest in its research and development (R&D) efforts.Before the pandemic, Bionano had a relatively decent balance sheet, with $17.3 million in its cash till. However, it wasn’t nearly enough to fund its lofty development plans. Hence, it was left with no option but to dilute its shareholding from 28 million shares in the fourth quarter of 2019 to 289.6 million. This represents a share dilution by tenfolds in a span of just a couple of years.Nevertheless, it paid off $14.9 million in debt by the first half of 2021 and completed several acquisitions. Hence, Bionano had a sizeable cash balance of $24.6 million and $226 million in saleable securities after the fourth quarter. Its internal funds will come in handy in catering to its rising R&D and other expenses, which widened its net loss by 76.2% in 2021.Bottom Line On BNGO StockOverall, Bionano has been experiencing healthy momentum in its business in the past few quarters and has put forward highly encouraging guidance for this year. The company has immense potential to establish a leading position in genomic sequencing, assuming a more widespread adoption in the coming years.Nevertheless, the risks are evident with the stock. Particularly, the firm’s penchant for diluting its shares is worrying for long-term investors. And given that profitability is still years away, it will continue diluting its shares further to fund future growth. Therefore, if you’re looking for a stock with healthy upside potential and could tolerate share dilution moving forward, BNGO stock could be an interesting bet for you.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013707360,"gmtCreate":1648773232620,"gmtModify":1676534395053,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh no","listText":"Oh no","text":"Oh no","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013707360","repostId":"1182000136","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":591,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013321849,"gmtCreate":1648686107807,"gmtModify":1676534378148,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍👍","listText":"👍👍","text":"👍👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013321849","repostId":"2223369103","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":508,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9019291702,"gmtCreate":1648599476966,"gmtModify":1676534360905,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting&nbsp;","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9019291702","repostId":"1145232829","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":323,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9095884945,"gmtCreate":1644882165374,"gmtModify":1676533970790,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tks&nbsp;","listText":"Tks&nbsp;","text":"Tks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9095884945","repostId":"1170333360","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170333360","pubTimestamp":1644881495,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170333360?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-15 07:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Big Options Trade Hedges S&P 500 Plunge of Up to 20% by April","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170333360","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"As the S&P 500 spent Monday struggling to rebound from last week’s loss, one options trader took on ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>As the S&amp;P 500 spent Monday struggling to rebound from last week’s loss, one options trader took on a big position that profits should the pain get much worse.</p><p>Through a series of trades, someone established a wager that the largest exchange-traded fund tracking the S&amp;P 500 Index will fall below $370 by April 22, or down 16% from Friday’s close.

The advocates cited internal data from Hertz that a judge ordered the company to release.A breakdown of the theft reports isn’t public, so it’s not yet possible to know how many complaints were against customers and how many were for other types of theft. Under certain circumstances, Hertz will tell police that a customer may have stolen a car. Many of those people turn out to have valid contracts and allegedly have been falsely arrested, according to the lawsuits.Messages left for Hertz representatives weren’t immediately returned. CBS, which hired lawyers to help get the documents unsealed, previously reported Hertz said the “vast majority” of cases involve renters who were weeks or months overdue on returns and authorities are brought in only after “exhaustive attempts” to reach a customer.Court OrderIn a court hearing Wednesday, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Mary Walrath ordered the annual theft numbers to be made public, siding with advocates for 220 people suing Hertz who argued that more details about Hertz’s internal anti-theft program should be public.Court documents show that some of the customers who rented cars were jailed, some years after they rented and returned the cars. At least one allegedly was held at gunpoint just hours after paying for a rental.“Hertz now admits that it reports thousands of its own customers for auto theft each year,” lawyers for the people suing said in court papers. The problem can be traced to company-wide, systemic problems, they allege.Bankruptcy ClaimsThe false arrest claims often involve long-term rentals, some set up directly by the customer, others through an auto insurance company, according to court documents.Those who claim Hertz had them wrongly arrested have filed claims in bankruptcy court demanding to be paid like other creditors of the company. Walrath oversaw Hertz’s Chapter 11 reorganization, which ended last year with a plan to pay creditors in full.The case is Hertz Corp. 20-11218, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware (Wilmington).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":134,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9096448390,"gmtCreate":1644453405616,"gmtModify":1676533927996,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh no","listText":"Oh no","text":"Oh no","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9096448390","repostId":"1130322814","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":276,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9096918723,"gmtCreate":1644280502328,"gmtModify":1676533907548,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.

For Meta, it’s a mega set of risks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":252,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9028366808,"gmtCreate":1653177371004,"gmtModify":1676535233556,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍👍👍","listText":"👍👍👍","text":"👍👍👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9028366808","repostId":"1123511669","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":668,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9011759669,"gmtCreate":1648942980274,"gmtModify":1676534423877,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice :)","listText":"Nice :)","text":"Nice :)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9011759669","repostId":"1123130739","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1123130739","pubTimestamp":1648865521,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1123130739?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-02 10:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy for April 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1123130739","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Nike: Best-of-breed apparel maker and a leader in sports apparel.Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG): Owns the to","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NKE\">Nike</a>: Best-of-breed apparel maker and a leader in sports apparel.</li><li>Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG): Owns the top two websites in the world.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>: Unrivaled business model with its Products and Services businesses.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a>: Runs a near-duopoly on the credit card market.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MA\">MasterCard</a>: Like Visa, operates with impressive margins and cash flow.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a>: Best-of-breed tech juggernaut catering to multiple end-markets enjoying strong secular growth.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SBUX\">Starbucks</a>: A leader in the consumer/retail business and has a strong focus on shareholder returns.</li></ul><p>Early in my investing career, I saw something that really piqued my interest: blue-chip stocks.

With that in mind, analysts expectabout 13% revenue growth this year, then a steady 8% to 9% growth ineach of the next three years.On the earnings front, analysts expect roughly 18% earnings growth this year, followed by more than 17% growth next year.Furthermore, the recent dip in the stock has driven Starbucks’ dividend yield up above 2%.While it’s not winning many income investors over at that rate, it’s not bad for those of us with a long-term horizon that isn’t necessarily focused solely on dividend income. However, the company has made this yield a priority.Starbucks has grown its dividend for 11 years now, with afive-year average growth rateof about 15.9%. So, clearly, it’s a focus.Thus, as long as the world is drinking coffee, Starbucks will be a winner.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":230,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9095884945,"gmtCreate":1644882165374,"gmtModify":1676533970790,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tks&nbsp;","listText":"Tks&nbsp;","text":"Tks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9095884945","repostId":"1170333360","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":57,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9089630836,"gmtCreate":1649986295631,"gmtModify":1676534622181,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌","listText":"👌","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9089630836","repostId":"1170859152","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170859152","pubTimestamp":1649982551,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170859152?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-15 08:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Stock-and-Bond Bottom Feeders Hold on Tight Amid Fed Bullying","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170859152","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Not surprised by data released or by market’s reaction: ShaoulEconomic activity and consumer resilie","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Not surprised by data released or by market’s reaction: Shaoul</li><li>Economic activity and consumer resilience remain robust</li></ul><p>War, soaring energy prices and central-bank badgering may be testing the resolve of dip-buying bulls.

Oil slumped, but held above $100 a barrel in New York.Moves in most financial markets were muted on the final day of a quarter that brought the twin threats of hawkish central banks bent on tamping down runaway inflation and the war in Ukraine. The S&P 500 edged lower, taking its loss in the three months to 3.6%, the most since March 2020. The two-year Treasury yield was steady after its 150 basis-point surge that is the most since 1984. Ten-year rates slipped, narrowing the spread to shorter tenors, as investors remain on edge over the threat a restrictive Federal Reserve will cause a recession.Stocks, sovereign bonds and corporate credit all got hammered in the year’s first months amid concerns about a growth slowdown as central banks move to tackle inflation by withdrawing stimulus. Investors who piled into commodities fared best, riding massive gains in everything from oil to nickel and wheat. Yet the increases have exacerbated price concerns and may lead to a sharper response from central banks.“The recent rally has masked a lot of pain over the past three months,” wrote Matt Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak + Co.A decline Thursday would mark the S&P 500’s 35th down day this year, the greatest number of first-quarter drawdowns since 1984, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.Oil slid as the U.S. said it will release roughly a million barrels of oil a day from its reserves for six months, reversing an earlier price rebound ahead of an OPEC+ supply meeting. Meanwhile, stocks fell as U.S. inflation-adjusted spending declined last month as prices tempered demand.Brent and West Texas Intermediate prices dropped about 4%, and European natural gas fell as Russia said it would halt gas contracts if buyers don’t pay in rubles.“Aside from quarter-end considerations, oil is very much the center of attention,” Simon Ballard, chief economist at First Abu Dhabi Bank, wrote in a note to investors. Still, “all the usual suspects are still in play, keeping the market in check, including the specter of the Fed pursuing an aggressive path of monetary policy normalization over the coming months.”Markets now see a strong chance the Federal Reserve will lift rates by a half point at its May meeting. The U.S. 2-year yield briefly exceeded the 10-year for the first time since 2019 on Tuesday, inverting yet another segment of the Treasury curve and reinforcing the view that Fed rate increases may cause a recession.“This week’s brief inversion in the U.S. bond market, combined with elevated volatility on Treasury options, is a warning that the risk of U.S. recession should not be ignored,” wrote Lewis Grant, a senior portfolio manager at Federated Hermes. “U.S. bond markets are showing signs of stress. This is not mirrored in equities, where the VIX remains subdued and U.S. indexes trade above their pre-war levels. The bond market would appear to have a better handle on the potential risks.”Some key events to watch this week:U.S. jobs report, FridaySome of the main moves in markets:StocksThe S&P 500 fell 0.1% as of 11:13 a.m. New York timeThe Nasdaq 100 fell 0.2%The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.3%The Stoxx Europe 600 fell 0.7%The MSCI World index fell 0.4%CurrenciesThe Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index was little changedThe euro fell 0.4% to $1.1116The British pound rose 0.2% to $1.3161The Japanese yen rose 0.3% to 121.42 per dollarBondsThe yield on 10-year Treasuries declined two basis points to 2.33%Germany’s 10-year yield declined 10 basis points to 0.54%Britain’s 10-year yield declined four basis points to 1.62%CommoditiesWest Texas Intermediate crude fell 4.2% to $103.32 a barrelGold futures rose 0.4% to $1,946.10 an ounce","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":591,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013321849,"gmtCreate":1648686107807,"gmtModify":1676534378148,"author":{"id":"4098849970602690","authorId":"4098849970602690","authorIdStr":"4098849970602690","name":"Harvard","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/361b34be7ff8215d2576e75766693396","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098849970602690"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍👍","listText":"👍👍","text":"👍👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013321849","repostId":"2223369103","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2223369103","pubTimestamp":1648682686,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2223369103?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 07:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"After-Hours Stock Movers 03/30: OEG, PRG, CORT Higher; PATH, EXFY, MASI Lower","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2223369103","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"After-Hours Stock Movers:UiPath Inc. 17% LOWER; reported fourth-quarter EPS of $0.05, versus the con","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>After-Hours Stock Movers:</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PATH\">UiPath</a> Inc. 17% LOWER; reported fourth-quarter EPS of $0.05, versus the consensus of $0.03.

She also wanted any legislation to also require financial disclosures from the judiciary, including Supreme Court justices. “It has to be governmentwide,” she said.</p><p>Republicans have shown interest in new rules, even though some rank-and-file GOP lawmakers have balked. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) is considering backing new limits on lawmaker stock ownership, according to an aide. And Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.), who said he holds his investments in a mutual fund and advises colleagues to do the same, said he would need to examine the issue.</p><p>The comments by Mrs. Pelosi show how quickly momentum has grown for new rules. In mid-December, she had rejected further regulations, telling reporters that “we’re a free-market economy,” in reference to lawmakers’ trades. Last month, Mrs. Pelosi shifted her position, saying “I’m OK with that,” if lawmakers wanted to tighten restrictions on trading.</p><p>The developments come amid greater scrutiny of trading by top government figures. Late last year, the Federal Reserve imposed restrictions on senior officials in a bid to address a stock-trading controversy that prompted the resignation of two reserve bank presidents. Also, a Wall Street Journal investigative series found more than 100federal judges violated federal lawby hearing lawsuits involving companies in which they reported owning stock.</p><p>That was on top of scrutiny of stock trades by lawmakers, as they attended closed-door briefings in early 2020 about the threat of the coronavirus pandemic. Investigators later closed probes without action.</p><p>The issue featured in a pair of Senate races in Georgia, where Democratic challengers criticized Republican incumbents over their trading. Sen. Jon Ossoff (D., Ga.), who won his seat in one of those races, told reporters Wednesday that “we’ve changed the conversation on this issue in Congress.”</p><p>Currently, lawmakers are barred from trading on nonpublic information derived from their position and must publicly file and disclose any financial transaction involving stocks, bonds, commodities futures and other securities within 45 days. Lawmakers and their immediate families bought $267.4 million of assets and sold $363.5 million last year, according to Capitol Trades, with both figures down from the prior year. The value of trading in stock options roughly doubled in 2021, to $25.9 million from $12.8 million a year earlier.</p><p>Administration Committee Chairman Zoe Lofgren (D., Calif.)—an ally of Mrs. Pelosi—has begun evaluating different bills to review the merits of different approaches, an aide said. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) said he asked Democratic colleagues to unify around a single bill, calling the issue an important one for Congress to address.</p><p>One bill, led by Reps.

She also wanted any legislation to also require financial disclosures from the judiciary, including Supreme Court justices. “It has to be governmentwide,” she said.Republicans have shown interest in new rules, even though some rank-and-file GOP lawmakers have balked. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) is considering backing new limits on lawmaker stock ownership, according to an aide. And Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.), who said he holds his investments in a mutual fund and advises colleagues to do the same, said he would need to examine the issue.The comments by Mrs. Pelosi show how quickly momentum has grown for new rules. In mid-December, she had rejected further regulations, telling reporters that “we’re a free-market economy,” in reference to lawmakers’ trades. Last month, Mrs. Pelosi shifted her position, saying “I’m OK with that,” if lawmakers wanted to tighten restrictions on trading.The developments come amid greater scrutiny of trading by top government figures. Late last year, the Federal Reserve imposed restrictions on senior officials in a bid to address a stock-trading controversy that prompted the resignation of two reserve bank presidents. Also, a Wall Street Journal investigative series found more than 100federal judges violated federal lawby hearing lawsuits involving companies in which they reported owning stock.That was on top of scrutiny of stock trades by lawmakers, as they attended closed-door briefings in early 2020 about the threat of the coronavirus pandemic. Investigators later closed probes without action.The issue featured in a pair of Senate races in Georgia, where Democratic challengers criticized Republican incumbents over their trading. Sen. Jon Ossoff (D., Ga.), who won his seat in one of those races, told reporters Wednesday that “we’ve changed the conversation on this issue in Congress.”Currently, lawmakers are barred from trading on nonpublic information derived from their position and must publicly file and disclose any financial transaction involving stocks, bonds, commodities futures and other securities within 45 days. Lawmakers and their immediate families bought $267.4 million of assets and sold $363.5 million last year, according to Capitol Trades, with both figures down from the prior year. The value of trading in stock options roughly doubled in 2021, to $25.9 million from $12.8 million a year earlier.Administration Committee Chairman Zoe Lofgren (D., Calif.)—an ally of Mrs. Pelosi—has begun evaluating different bills to review the merits of different approaches, an aide said. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) said he asked Democratic colleagues to unify around a single bill, calling the issue an important one for Congress to address.One bill, led by Reps. Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) and Chip Roy (R., Texas), would require lawmakers, their spouses and dependents to put stocks, futures and derivatives into blind trusts managed by outside advisers. Another, led by Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D., Ill.), would ban lawmakers and senior staffers, but not spouses, from trading in stocks and other investments.Sen. Steve Daines (R., Mont.) is one of the lawmakers looking at how to regulate spouses of legislators who trade stocks.Other issues to be ironed out include the treatment of capital gains, if lawmakers were forced to sell investments.“The American public thinks that members of Congress are self-dealing, and the American public deserves to trust us more,” Ms. Spanberger said.
