Tesla doesn&#39;t typically respond to press inquiries (it did not for this story), and there&#39;s no contact information listed on Musk&#39;s foundation&#39;s bare-bones website. The Tesla stock donation was revealed in an SEC filing Monday that described the donated shares as a gift &#34;to charity,&#34; but didn&#39;t specify which one.</p><p>One possible candidate is the United Nations World Food Program. Musk got into a public <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> spat with the WFP shortly before he donated the stock, and said he would donate $6 billion to the hunger relief agency if it could show how the money would &#34;solve world hunger.&#34; A WFP spokesman initially told MarketWatch this week that it doesn&#39;t disclose donors, but allows donors to publicize their gifts themselves. The WFP&#39;s executive director later said that the group had not received any funds yet from Musk, and added that &#34;I am excited to hear that Elon is engaged. This is an amazing and great first step.&#34;</p><p>At a time when billionaires are riding high and exerting growing influence over the public sphere, the lack of transparency around Musk&#39;s donation is the latest example of how elite philanthropists can evade scrutiny too easily, critics say.</p><p>&#34;Come on. There has to be a middle-ground [between] preening, self-congratulatory mega-giving &amp; complete non-disclosure,&#34; wrote philanthropy historian Ben Soskis on Twitter(TWTR) in response to the lack of information on Musk&#39;s stock donation. &#34;If not, we&#39;re gonna need a pretty radical overhaul of our [regulations] relating to individual giving &amp; anonymity.&#34;</p><p>Soskis, a senior research associate in the Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute, added, &#34;If you are giving a gift of over $5 [billion], you should publicly announce where the money is going to. As a fundamental matter of public interest.&#34;</p><p><b>How the public could find out where Musk&#39;s donation went</b></p><p>The recipients of Musk&#39;s donation could eventually come to light if Musk gave the stock to his private foundation and the foundation liquidated it and handed out the money as grants to nonprofits. In that case, the Musk Foundation would have to publicly list its major donors and the nonprofits that received the grants in a filing with the IRS. Foundations, which exist to hand out money for public benefit, are required to file that paperwork annually.</p><p>The most recent IRS filing for the Musk Foundation shows that Musk donated 11,000 Tesla shares to it in 2019. The foundation gave a $1 million grant to George Mason University &#34;for COVID-19 scientific research,&#34; made several other grants to schools and other recipients, and gave a $20.7 million donation to Fidelity Charitable, where Musk appears to keep a donor-advised fund.</p><p><b>Why the recipients of Musk stock donation could easily stay secret</b></p><p>There are several other scenarios where the recipients of Musk&#39;s largesse would never be revealed. Musk may have put the money into a donor-advised fund at Fidelity Charitable. DAFs, a type of charitable giving account, function as middlemen. They hold money the donor has earmarked for charity and then distribute it to nonprofits chosen by the donor. When the nonprofits receive the money, it comes from the DAF, not the donor, and there&#39;s no paper trail connecting the donor directly to the nonprofit.</p><p>DAFs have come under fire because account holders get a tax break when they put money into a DAF, but there&#39;s no deadline for when donors must distribute the money to charities. A bill recently introduced in Congress would change some of the laws around DAFs with the aim of moving money more quickly into the hands of charities.</p><p>&#34;The Musk donation serves as a reminder that current laws allow for donors to get a tax deduction up front without any requirement that $ ever gets to the community,&#34; wrote billionaire John Arnold, a supporter of the DAF reform legislation, on Twitter. &#34;Money can sit in DAF accounts forever.&#34;</p><p>DAF providers say those criticisms are wrong. Fidelity Charitable released its 2022 giving report Tuesday, which showed that in 2021, its DAF account holders recommended &#34;a record $10.3 billion in grants, 41% more dollars than pre-pandemic giving in 2019.&#34; The report also noted that &#34;donors are recommending grants at a more rapid pace -- an average of 12.4 grants per account in 2021, compared to 7.4 a decade ago.&#34;</p><p>A spokesman for Fidelity Charitable declined to comment on Musk.</p><p>Musk could also fly under the radar with his stock donation if he put it into a charitable limited liability company, a type of giving vehicle used by philanthropists such as Meta (formerly Facebook <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">$(FB)$</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, and Melinda French Gates, the former wife of Microsoft <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a> founder Bill Gates. Charitable LLCs can make grants to nonprofits and invest in for-profit ventures, but they aren&#39;t required to publicly disclose their spending.</p><p>If Musk gave the stock directly to a nonprofit, the group wouldn&#39;t be required to publicly disclose him as the donor. Nonprofits must disclose their major donors to the IRS, but they are not required to identify those donors publicly, said Gene Takagi, a lawyer specializing in nonprofit law at NEO Law Group in San Francisco.</p><p>&#34;There are debates over the need for greater transparency, particularly with very large gifts that can shift public policy and possibly elections through permissible charity advocacy activities,&#34; Takagi siad. &#34; In my own personal opinion, the danger of less transparency, for example in the area of campaign finance, could seriously weaken our democracy.&#34;</p><p>Others say that donors should be allowed to preserve their privacy. Keeping donor information private &#34;enables potentially controversial or less popular causes to receive financial support from individuals without posing a public risk to donors,&#34; wrote Independent Sector, a coalition of nonprofits and foundations. Organizations shouldn&#39;t have to disclose their donors if they&#39;re involved in &#34;issues for which donor disclosure would create a substantial likelihood of personal harm to donors,&#34; the group said.</p><p><b>Other billionaires have been more public about recent giving</b></p><p>Billionaire philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, the former wife of Amazon <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a> founder Jeff Bezos, drew criticism in December when she announced that she had made a round of donations, but didn&#39;t want to reveal the amounts she gave or the recipients. She later changed her tune and said she&#39;ll be putting together a public database showing who&#39;s received the more than $8.5 billion she&#39;s handed out since her divorce from Bezos. Some of the organizations that have received money from Scott have also gone public.</p><p>Another SEC filing made public this week showed that Henrik Fisker, chief executive and chairman of electric-vehicle maker Fisker, Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FSR\">$(FSR)$</a> donated $4 million in stock to establish a foundation in the name of him and his wife, and directed $1.9 million to a donor-advised fund. Fisker, Inc. also issued a news release outlining where the money was going.</p><p>In another recent SEC filing, Austin Russell, chief executive of self-driving software company Luminar Technologies <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LAZR\">$(LAZR)$</a> and considered the world&#39;s youngest self-made billionaire, disclosed that he donated 4,500,000 shares of Luminar to Central Florida Foundation, an Orlando-based community foundation.

There's a good chance the public may never know which charity or charities benefited from the approximately $5.7 billion in Tesla $(TSLA)$ stock Musk donated in 2021.While there are some public-disclosure laws in philanthropy, billionaire donors like Musk can easily keep the details of their giving under wraps, and it's legal for them to do so.Musk -- who signed the Giving Pledge in 2012, promising to give away most of his wealth -- doesn't send out press releases announcing his donations, though he occasionally tweets about them. Tesla doesn't typically respond to press inquiries (it did not for this story), and there's no contact information listed on Musk's foundation's bare-bones website. The Tesla stock donation was revealed in an SEC filing Monday that described the donated shares as a gift \"to charity,\" but didn't specify which one.One possible candidate is the United Nations World Food Program. Musk got into a public Twitter spat with the WFP shortly before he donated the stock, and said he would donate $6 billion to the hunger relief agency if it could show how the money would \"solve world hunger.\" A WFP spokesman initially told MarketWatch this week that it doesn't disclose donors, but allows donors to publicize their gifts themselves. The WFP's executive director later said that the group had not received any funds yet from Musk, and added that \"I am excited to hear that Elon is engaged. This is an amazing and great first step.\"At a time when billionaires are riding high and exerting growing influence over the public sphere, the lack of transparency around Musk's donation is the latest example of how elite philanthropists can evade scrutiny too easily, critics say.\"Come on. There has to be a middle-ground [between] preening, self-congratulatory mega-giving & complete non-disclosure,\" wrote philanthropy historian Ben Soskis on Twitter(TWTR) in response to the lack of information on Musk's stock donation. \"If not, we're gonna need a pretty radical overhaul of our [regulations] relating to individual giving & anonymity.\"Soskis, a senior research associate in the Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute, added, \"If you are giving a gift of over $5 [billion], you should publicly announce where the money is going to. As a fundamental matter of public interest.\"How the public could find out where Musk's donation wentThe recipients of Musk's donation could eventually come to light if Musk gave the stock to his private foundation and the foundation liquidated it and handed out the money as grants to nonprofits. In that case, the Musk Foundation would have to publicly list its major donors and the nonprofits that received the grants in a filing with the IRS. Foundations, which exist to hand out money for public benefit, are required to file that paperwork annually.The most recent IRS filing for the Musk Foundation shows that Musk donated 11,000 Tesla shares to it in 2019. The foundation gave a $1 million grant to George Mason University \"for COVID-19 scientific research,\" made several other grants to schools and other recipients, and gave a $20.7 million donation to Fidelity Charitable, where Musk appears to keep a donor-advised fund.Why the recipients of Musk stock donation could easily stay secretThere are several other scenarios where the recipients of Musk's largesse would never be revealed. Musk may have put the money into a donor-advised fund at Fidelity Charitable. DAFs, a type of charitable giving account, function as middlemen. They hold money the donor has earmarked for charity and then distribute it to nonprofits chosen by the donor. When the nonprofits receive the money, it comes from the DAF, not the donor, and there's no paper trail connecting the donor directly to the nonprofit.DAFs have come under fire because account holders get a tax break when they put money into a DAF, but there's no deadline for when donors must distribute the money to charities. A bill recently introduced in Congress would change some of the laws around DAFs with the aim of moving money more quickly into the hands of charities.\"The Musk donation serves as a reminder that current laws allow for donors to get a tax deduction up front without any requirement that $ ever gets to the community,\" wrote billionaire John Arnold, a supporter of the DAF reform legislation, on Twitter. \"Money can sit in DAF accounts forever.\"DAF providers say those criticisms are wrong. Fidelity Charitable released its 2022 giving report Tuesday, which showed that in 2021, its DAF account holders recommended \"a record $10.3 billion in grants, 41% more dollars than pre-pandemic giving in 2019.\" The report also noted that \"donors are recommending grants at a more rapid pace -- an average of 12.4 grants per account in 2021, compared to 7.4 a decade ago.\"A spokesman for Fidelity Charitable declined to comment on Musk.Musk could also fly under the radar with his stock donation if he put it into a charitable limited liability company, a type of giving vehicle used by philanthropists such as Meta (formerly Facebook $(FB)$) CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, and Melinda French Gates, the former wife of Microsoft $(MSFT)$ founder Bill Gates. Charitable LLCs can make grants to nonprofits and invest in for-profit ventures, but they aren't required to publicly disclose their spending.If Musk gave the stock directly to a nonprofit, the group wouldn't be required to publicly disclose him as the donor. Nonprofits must disclose their major donors to the IRS, but they are not required to identify those donors publicly, said Gene Takagi, a lawyer specializing in nonprofit law at NEO Law Group in San Francisco.\"There are debates over the need for greater transparency, particularly with very large gifts that can shift public policy and possibly elections through permissible charity advocacy activities,\" Takagi siad. \" In my own personal opinion, the danger of less transparency, for example in the area of campaign finance, could seriously weaken our democracy.\"Others say that donors should be allowed to preserve their privacy. Keeping donor information private \"enables potentially controversial or less popular causes to receive financial support from individuals without posing a public risk to donors,\" wrote Independent Sector, a coalition of nonprofits and foundations. Organizations shouldn't have to disclose their donors if they're involved in \"issues for which donor disclosure would create a substantial likelihood of personal harm to donors,\" the group said.Other billionaires have been more public about recent givingBillionaire philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, the former wife of Amazon $(AMZN)$ founder Jeff Bezos, drew criticism in December when she announced that she had made a round of donations, but didn't want to reveal the amounts she gave or the recipients. She later changed her tune and said she'll be putting together a public database showing who's received the more than $8.5 billion she's handed out since her divorce from Bezos. Some of the organizations that have received money from Scott have also gone public.Another SEC filing made public this week showed that Henrik Fisker, chief executive and chairman of electric-vehicle maker Fisker, Inc. $(FSR)$ donated $4 million in stock to establish a foundation in the name of him and his wife, and directed $1.9 million to a donor-advised fund. Fisker, Inc. also issued a news release outlining where the money was going.In another recent SEC filing, Austin Russell, chief executive of self-driving software company Luminar Technologies $(LAZR)$ and considered the world's youngest self-made billionaire, disclosed that he donated 4,500,000 shares of Luminar to Central Florida Foundation, an Orlando-based community foundation.

And a new read on retail sales will be released Wednesday giving investors more insights into consumer spending.</p><p>Concerns over military action by the Kremlin have created a new headwind for investors, particularly after the White House warned on Friday that a possible invasion of Ukraine by Russia could come within days. The statement dealt a fresh blow to markets.</p><p>“The Russia-Ukraine tensions have hovered over already shaky investor sentiment,” Comerica Wealth Management Chief Investment Officer John Lynch said in a note. “Investors have been counting on a diplomatic resolution, but recent developments indicate this may be wishful thinking and therefore, not fully priced into the markets.”</p><p>The geopolitical tensions add to the uncertainty around central bank policy that has dominated market sentiment in recent months. Friday’s warning by the Biden administration weighed on stocks and sent oil prices soaring to a seven-year high.</p><p>“By pushing energy prices even higher, a Russian invasion would likely exacerbate inflation and redouble pressure on the Fed to raise interest rates,” Comerica Bank Chief Economist Bill Adams said in a note. “From the Fed’s perspective, the inflationary effects of a Russian invasion and higher energy prices would likely outweigh the shock’s negative implications for global growth.”</p><p>The Fed is already under pressure to act on the fastest increase in prices in 40 years. Wall Street was rattled last week by a highly-anticipated fresh print on the Labor Department’s Consumer Price Index (CPI), which notched a steeper-than-expected 7.5% increase over the year ended January to mark the largest annual jump since 1982. The surge heightened calls for the Federal Reserve to intervene more aggressively than anticipated to rein in soaring price levels, even raising the possibility of an emergency hike before the bank’s next policy meeting in March.</p><p>“As the inflation fire burns even hotter, the Federal Reserve will have to bring an even bigger firehose to put it out,” FWDBONDS Chief Economist Chris Rupkey said in a note.</p><p>Worries over above-estimated inflation have raised questions about whether or not the central bank might deliver on a 50 basis point move in mid-March. The Fed has not executed a “double” rate increase in a single policy decision since May 2000.</p><p>Fed watchers including Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank had ramped up their calls on how many times policymakers will increase rates. Goldman now sees the Federal Reserve hiking short-term borrowing costs seven times this year rather than the five it had expected earlier, while Deutsche Bank projects a 50 basis point rate hike in March and five more 25 basis point increases in the year.</p><p>CME Group&#39;s FedWatch tool showed investors were pricing in a 99% chance Fed policymakers will raise rates by 50 basis points in March as of Friday, a jump of 24% from the probability reflected two days earlier.</p><p>Some experts say the projections are greatly exaggerated.</p><p>“Even with elevated levels of inflation, we expect the Federal Reserve to tighten less than the market expects in 2022,” Treasury Partners Chief Investment Officer Richard Saperstein said in a note.</p><p>“We do not expect the Federal Reserve to announce rate hikes at every meeting and such extreme tightening scenarios suggest that we’re currently witnessing peak Fed mania,” he wrote, adding a moderate tightening process through a combination of rate hikes and the implementation of quantitative tightening starting this summer were likely.</p><p>On the geopolitical front, LPL Financial’s Ryan Detrick also appeared to temper the notion that a move by Russia into Ukraine would crash the stock market, pointing out that, historically, the great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II did not put much of a dent in equities and losses were typically recovered quickly.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/874e40dd031fe2fadf0415f24e036dcc\" tg-width=\"5500\" tg-height=\"3667\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>U.S. President Joe Biden holds virtual talks with Russia&#39;s President Vladimir Putin amid Western fears that Moscow plans to attack Ukraine, as Secretary of State Antony Blinken listens with other officials during a secure video call from the Situation Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., December 7, 2021.

This would compare to December&#39;s decline of 2.3%.</p><p>&#34;The mom [month-over-month] gain in retail ex auto was negatively impacted by restaurants and gas spending, which were down 1.7% and 3.8% mom, respectively.

And a new read on retail sales will be released Wednesday giving investors more insights into consumer spending.Concerns over military action by the Kremlin have created a new headwind for investors, particularly after the White House warned on Friday that a possible invasion of Ukraine by Russia could come within days. The statement dealt a fresh blow to markets.“The Russia-Ukraine tensions have hovered over already shaky investor sentiment,” Comerica Wealth Management Chief Investment Officer John Lynch said in a note. “Investors have been counting on a diplomatic resolution, but recent developments indicate this may be wishful thinking and therefore, not fully priced into the markets.”The geopolitical tensions add to the uncertainty around central bank policy that has dominated market sentiment in recent months. Friday’s warning by the Biden administration weighed on stocks and sent oil prices soaring to a seven-year high.“By pushing energy prices even higher, a Russian invasion would likely exacerbate inflation and redouble pressure on the Fed to raise interest rates,” Comerica Bank Chief Economist Bill Adams said in a note. “From the Fed’s perspective, the inflationary effects of a Russian invasion and higher energy prices would likely outweigh the shock’s negative implications for global growth.”The Fed is already under pressure to act on the fastest increase in prices in 40 years. Wall Street was rattled last week by a highly-anticipated fresh print on the Labor Department’s Consumer Price Index (CPI), which notched a steeper-than-expected 7.5% increase over the year ended January to mark the largest annual jump since 1982. The surge heightened calls for the Federal Reserve to intervene more aggressively than anticipated to rein in soaring price levels, even raising the possibility of an emergency hike before the bank’s next policy meeting in March.“As the inflation fire burns even hotter, the Federal Reserve will have to bring an even bigger firehose to put it out,” FWDBONDS Chief Economist Chris Rupkey said in a note.Worries over above-estimated inflation have raised questions about whether or not the central bank might deliver on a 50 basis point move in mid-March. The Fed has not executed a “double” rate increase in a single policy decision since May 2000.Fed watchers including Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank had ramped up their calls on how many times policymakers will increase rates. Goldman now sees the Federal Reserve hiking short-term borrowing costs seven times this year rather than the five it had expected earlier, while Deutsche Bank projects a 50 basis point rate hike in March and five more 25 basis point increases in the year.CME Group's FedWatch tool showed investors were pricing in a 99% chance Fed policymakers will raise rates by 50 basis points in March as of Friday, a jump of 24% from the probability reflected two days earlier.Some experts say the projections are greatly exaggerated.“Even with elevated levels of inflation, we expect the Federal Reserve to tighten less than the market expects in 2022,” Treasury Partners Chief Investment Officer Richard Saperstein said in a note.“We do not expect the Federal Reserve to announce rate hikes at every meeting and such extreme tightening scenarios suggest that we’re currently witnessing peak Fed mania,” he wrote, adding a moderate tightening process through a combination of rate hikes and the implementation of quantitative tightening starting this summer were likely.On the geopolitical front, LPL Financial’s Ryan Detrick also appeared to temper the notion that a move by Russia into Ukraine would crash the stock market, pointing out that, historically, the great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II did not put much of a dent in equities and losses were typically recovered quickly.U.S. President Joe Biden holds virtual talks with Russia's President Vladimir Putin amid Western fears that Moscow plans to attack Ukraine, as Secretary of State Antony Blinken listens with other officials during a secure video call from the Situation Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., December 7, 2021. The White House/Handout via REUTERS THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN SUPPLIED BY A THIRD PARTY TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYHandout . / reuters“You can’t minimize what today’s news could mean on that part of the world and the people impacted, but from an investment point of view we need to remember that major geopolitical events historically haven’t moved stocks much,” Detrick said.As an example, Detrick cited one of the best six-month runs in U.S. stocks ever following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963.“The truth is a solid economy can make up for a lot of sins,” Detrick added.The great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II didn’t put much of a dent in stocks, with any losses made up quite quickly, according to Ryan Detrick, hief Market Strategist for LPL Financial.LPL Financial,Retail salesConsensus economists are expecting to see retail sales, released by the U.S. Census Bureau, rise by 2% in January compared to December's decrease of 1.9%, but sales excluding autos, gasoline, building materials and food services is expected to rise at a softer 0.8%, according to Bloomberg data. This would compare to December's decline of 2.3%.\"The mom [month-over-month] gain in retail ex auto was negatively impacted by restaurants and gas spending, which were down 1.7% and 3.8% mom, respectively.

But Tesla apparently won't ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>New York (CNN Business) -</b> Elon Musk has repeatedly bragged (or, perhaps, complained) that he&#39;ll pay more in federal taxes for 2021 than anyone has ever paid — about $11 billion. But Tesla apparently won&#39;t pay a cent.</p><p>Tesla may not plan to pay federal taxes any time in the foreseeable future -- even though the company just reported by far its most profitable year ever. In 2021, Tesla recorded net income of $5.5 billion, and adjusted income of $7.6 billion.</p><p>But buried in a footnote of its recent annual financial filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Tesla reports that its US operations lost $130 million last year on a pre-tax basis. It claims that all of its pre-tax profits — more than $6 billion worth — came from overseas operations, even though 45% of its revenue came from US sales.</p><p>Although Tesla indicates its foreign tax bill came to $839 million, its state tax bill was only $9 million. And its federal tax bill was zero.</p><p>&#34;That defies common sense, but it does not defy the US tax code,&#34; said Martin Sullivan, chief economist for Tax Analysts, a nonprofit tax publisher, and an expert on US corporate tax practices.</p><p><b>Moving profits overseas — on paper</b></p><p>Sullivan said he believes the $130 million loss on its US operations is most likely due to a common practice for US multinational corporations: structuring their operations so that overseas subsidiaries are the ones reporting income, leaving the US operation to have little or no taxable income to report.</p><p>For example, a company can assign its intellectual property to one of those foreign entities, and charge its US unit a fee for using that property. And thus, the foreign operation is very profitable, while the US company — burdened with &#34;costs&#34; to the company itself — reports either a loss or very little income.</p><p>&#34;It&#39;s a US multinational thing. It&#39;s very common. It&#39;s almost malpractice not to do that,&#34; said Sullivan.</p><p>A recent report from the US Department of the Treasury found 61% of the international profits ofUS multinational companies are booked in seven small countries -- Bermuda, the Caymans, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Singapore and Switzerland -- known as tax havens. It&#39;s a practice that many elected officials and the Biden administration have vowed to crack down on.</p><p>&#34;Tesla and other giant corporations have long used scams and loopholes to help them get out of paying taxes -- that has to stop,&#34; said Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a frequent critic of Musk. &#34;Democrats are working to end Republican tax cuts for corporations shifting profits and jobs overseas.&#34;</p><p>However, Congress has so far failed to take action to stop it.</p><p>The financial filing by Tesla doesn&#39;t spell out what it did exactly, though. For example, it doesn&#39;t say which country or countries it made its profit in while reporting a US loss. And Tesla declined to respond to a question about its filing.</p><p><b>Tesla doesn&#39;t expect to pay US taxes any time soon</b></p><p>Considering the substantial financial help that Tesla has long received from government support for its electric cars, the company doesn&#39;t have to use a shell game of offshoring its profits to avoid paying taxes. Instead, it could use past losses to shelter its current income from any tax bill.</p><p>Once again, this is a common practice for companies that lose money: losses result in a future tax break.</p><p>Tech companies that lose money for years before turning a profit — such as Amazon(AMZN) — have used this technique.

But Tesla apparently won't pay a cent.Tesla may not plan to pay federal taxes any time in the foreseeable future -- even though the company just reported by far its most profitable year ever. In 2021, Tesla recorded net income of $5.5 billion, and adjusted income of $7.6 billion.But buried in a footnote of its recent annual financial filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Tesla reports that its US operations lost $130 million last year on a pre-tax basis. It claims that all of its pre-tax profits — more than $6 billion worth — came from overseas operations, even though 45% of its revenue came from US sales.Although Tesla indicates its foreign tax bill came to $839 million, its state tax bill was only $9 million. And its federal tax bill was zero.\"That defies common sense, but it does not defy the US tax code,\" said Martin Sullivan, chief economist for Tax Analysts, a nonprofit tax publisher, and an expert on US corporate tax practices.Moving profits overseas — on paperSullivan said he believes the $130 million loss on its US operations is most likely due to a common practice for US multinational corporations: structuring their operations so that overseas subsidiaries are the ones reporting income, leaving the US operation to have little or no taxable income to report.For example, a company can assign its intellectual property to one of those foreign entities, and charge its US unit a fee for using that property. And thus, the foreign operation is very profitable, while the US company — burdened with \"costs\" to the company itself — reports either a loss or very little income.\"It's a US multinational thing. It's very common. It's almost malpractice not to do that,\" said Sullivan.A recent report from the US Department of the Treasury found 61% of the international profits ofUS multinational companies are booked in seven small countries -- Bermuda, the Caymans, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Singapore and Switzerland -- known as tax havens. It's a practice that many elected officials and the Biden administration have vowed to crack down on.\"Tesla and other giant corporations have long used scams and loopholes to help them get out of paying taxes -- that has to stop,\" said Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a frequent critic of Musk. \"Democrats are working to end Republican tax cuts for corporations shifting profits and jobs overseas.\"However, Congress has so far failed to take action to stop it.The financial filing by Tesla doesn't spell out what it did exactly, though. For example, it doesn't say which country or countries it made its profit in while reporting a US loss. And Tesla declined to respond to a question about its filing.Tesla doesn't expect to pay US taxes any time soonConsidering the substantial financial help that Tesla has long received from government support for its electric cars, the company doesn't have to use a shell game of offshoring its profits to avoid paying taxes. Instead, it could use past losses to shelter its current income from any tax bill.Once again, this is a common practice for companies that lose money: losses result in a future tax break.Tech companies that lose money for years before turning a profit — such as Amazon(AMZN) — have used this technique. So have old line companies that have financial problems, such as all US airlines, which will probably not have to pay taxes for years to come after recording billions of dollars in losses during the pandemic — despite receiving billions in federal help.Similarly, Tesla's US automaking competitors lost so much money in the first decade of this century that General Motors (GM) and Chrysler needed government bailouts. Despite those bailouts, neither company paid taxes for several years once they were again profitable.Past losses are a huge and very valuable future tax benefit known as \"net operating loss carry-forwards.\"Tesla was losing money for more than a decade before it finally started reporting net income in 2020. Those were real losses, which occurred when the costs of developing and building its cars in its early years far outstripped the money it could sell them for.

With that incredible performance in mind, read on for a look at two tech stocks in the Berkshire Hathaway portfolio that have what it takes to be huge winners.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84932734b1592c7e2f9dae1a4f150489\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNOW\">Snowflake</a></h2><p>Sporting a market capitalization of roughly $78.5 billion and trading at approximately 39 times this year&#39;s expected sales, <b>Snowflake</b> (NYSE:SNOW) has one of the more unusual valuation profiles in the Berkshire Hathaway portfolio. This is a growth stock through and through, and it&#39;s operating at the intersection of some powerful long-term trends that help put its valuation and support from the Berkshire team in context.</p><p>Snowflake provides data warehousing and analytics services, and it allows users to easily combine otherwise siloed information from <b>Amazon</b>&#39;s, <b>Microsoft</b>&#39;s, and <b>Alphabet</b>&#39;s respective cloud platforms. It also allows customers to share and monetize their data, and the business is on track to benefit from a powerful network effect as more clients take advantage of these services.</p><p>A recent market study found that 100% of surveyed Snowflake customers recommend the company&#39;s services, and the data specialist&#39;s highly regarded offerings are paving the way for rapid business growth. Existing customers increased their spending a whopping 73% year over year in the third quarter, and the company also grew its total customer count to 5,416 -- up roughly 52% year over year. The combination of increased client spending and new customer additions allowed the company to post 110% year-over-year sales growth in Q3, and there&#39;s still huge room for expansion over the long term.</p><p>With Snowflake&#39;s share price now down roughly 27% from its high, investors have an opportunity to build discounted positions in a company that&#39;s on track to play an influential role in the ongoing data analytics revolution.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/STNE\">StoneCo</a></h2><p>The last year has been tough for fintech stocks. It&#39;s also generally been challenging for companies that primarily operate in the Latin American market. As such, it&#39;s not shocking that <b>StoneCo</b> (NASDAQ:STNE) stock has struggled across the stretch, but the extent of the sell-offs has been staggering.</p><p>StoneCo is a leading provider of payment processing and other fintech services in Brazil. Berkshire Hathaway made a significant investment in the company when StoneCo had its initial public offering in 2018. The investment conglomerate started out owning a roughly 11% stake in the company, but it trimmed its position after shares went on to post explosive gains. Berkshire&#39;s decision to reduce holdings in StoneCo stock has proven to be a wise one given recent trading, but there&#39;s big comeback potential here.</p><p>Amid waning investor appetite for risk, high inflation, and economic uncertainty in Latin America, StoneCo stock has gotten pummeled. Shares trade down a staggering 85% from the lifetime high they hit last February.</p><p>StoneCo&#39;s outlook has been dampened due to new credit regulations in Brazil that have disrupted one of the company&#39;s growth vehicles. On the other hand, the fintech actually posted a record net customer addition of 294,000 new merchant clients in the third quarter, and it also added more than 420,000 new digital banking accounts in the period.</p><p>The company ended the quarter with nearly 1.4 million active payment clients, and total revenue climbed roughly 57% year over year in the period. Meanwhile, total payment volume conducted through StoneCo&#39;s platform was up roughly 54% after backing out contributions from pandemic-related stimulus initiatives. The company&#39;s net income also slumped roughly 54% in the period, largely due to the collapse of its credit business, but there&#39;s still a core growth engine here that looks pretty strong.</p><p>The big sell-offs have pushed StoneCo&#39;s market capitalization down to roughly $4 billion, and the company is now valued at roughly 30.5 times this year&#39;s expected earnings and 2.7 times expected sales.I believe this is a situation in which can benefit from being &#34;greedy when others are fearful,&#34; as Buffett has famously said.</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>Down 27% to 85%: 2 Buffett Stocks to Buy for 2022 and Beyond</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;

With that incredible performance in mind, read on for a look at two tech stocks in the Berkshire Hathaway portfolio that have what it takes to be huge winners.Image source: The Motley Fool.1. SnowflakeSporting a market capitalization of roughly $78.5 billion and trading at approximately 39 times this year's expected sales, Snowflake (NYSE:SNOW) has one of the more unusual valuation profiles in the Berkshire Hathaway portfolio. This is a growth stock through and through, and it's operating at the intersection of some powerful long-term trends that help put its valuation and support from the Berkshire team in context.Snowflake provides data warehousing and analytics services, and it allows users to easily combine otherwise siloed information from Amazon's, Microsoft's, and Alphabet's respective cloud platforms. It also allows customers to share and monetize their data, and the business is on track to benefit from a powerful network effect as more clients take advantage of these services.A recent market study found that 100% of surveyed Snowflake customers recommend the company's services, and the data specialist's highly regarded offerings are paving the way for rapid business growth. Existing customers increased their spending a whopping 73% year over year in the third quarter, and the company also grew its total customer count to 5,416 -- up roughly 52% year over year. The combination of increased client spending and new customer additions allowed the company to post 110% year-over-year sales growth in Q3, and there's still huge room for expansion over the long term.With Snowflake's share price now down roughly 27% from its high, investors have an opportunity to build discounted positions in a company that's on track to play an influential role in the ongoing data analytics revolution.2. StoneCoThe last year has been tough for fintech stocks. It's also generally been challenging for companies that primarily operate in the Latin American market. As such, it's not shocking that StoneCo (NASDAQ:STNE) stock has struggled across the stretch, but the extent of the sell-offs has been staggering.StoneCo is a leading provider of payment processing and other fintech services in Brazil. Berkshire Hathaway made a significant investment in the company when StoneCo had its initial public offering in 2018. The investment conglomerate started out owning a roughly 11% stake in the company, but it trimmed its position after shares went on to post explosive gains. Berkshire's decision to reduce holdings in StoneCo stock has proven to be a wise one given recent trading, but there's big comeback potential here.Amid waning investor appetite for risk, high inflation, and economic uncertainty in Latin America, StoneCo stock has gotten pummeled. Shares trade down a staggering 85% from the lifetime high they hit last February.StoneCo's outlook has been dampened due to new credit regulations in Brazil that have disrupted one of the company's growth vehicles. On the other hand, the fintech actually posted a record net customer addition of 294,000 new merchant clients in the third quarter, and it also added more than 420,000 new digital banking accounts in the period.The company ended the quarter with nearly 1.4 million active payment clients, and total revenue climbed roughly 57% year over year in the period. Meanwhile, total payment volume conducted through StoneCo's platform was up roughly 54% after backing out contributions from pandemic-related stimulus initiatives. The company's net income also slumped roughly 54% in the period, largely due to the collapse of its credit business, but there's still a core growth engine here that looks pretty strong.The big sell-offs have pushed StoneCo's market capitalization down to roughly $4 billion, and the company is now valued at roughly 30.5 times this year's expected earnings and 2.7 times expected sales.I believe this is a situation in which can benefit from being \"greedy when others are fearful,\" as Buffett has famously said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":760,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9095711733,"gmtCreate":1644989142312,"gmtModify":1676533984208,"author":{"id":"4101101662246600","authorId":"4101101662246600","name":"awzh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101101662246600","authorIdStr":"4101101662246600"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hoora <a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>","listText":"Hoora <a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>","text":"Hoora $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9095711733","repostId":"1178565287","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1006,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9092654868,"gmtCreate":1644625788850,"gmtModify":1676533947069,"author":{"id":"4101101662246600","authorId":"4101101662246600","name":"awzh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101101662246600","authorIdStr":"4101101662246600"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pure hype","listText":"Pure hype","text":"Pure hype","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9092654868","repostId":"2210652351","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2210652351","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1644614344,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2210652351?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-12 05:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street ends down sharply on fears of Ukraine conflict","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2210652351","media":"Reuters","summary":"Feb 11 (Reuters) - Wall Street stocks ended sharply lower on Friday for the second straight session,","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Feb 11 (Reuters) - Wall Street stocks ended sharply lower on Friday for the second straight session, as investors fretted about deepening tensions between Russia and Ukraine.</p><p>Nine of the 11 major S&amp;P 500 sector indexes declined, led by technology   , down 3.0%, and consumer discretionary, down 2.8%.

Comments from St. Louis Fed Bank President James Bullard about aggressive rate hikes have also rattled investor sentiment.For the week, the S&P 500 fell 1.8% and the Nasdaq shed 2.2%.Traders are pricing in a half-point rate hike in March with just a scant chance of a smaller quarter-point raise, and heavy bets for a policy path that would bring rates to a range of 1.75%-2.00% by the end of the year.\"If the Ukraine is attacked, it adds more credence to our view that the Fed will be more dovish than the market currently believes as the war would make the outlook even more uncertain,\" said Jay Hatfield, chief investment officer at Infrastructure Capital Management in New York.A University of Michigan survey showed U.S. consumer sentiment fell to its lowest in more than a decade in early February on expectations that inflation would continue to rise in the near term.The CBOE volatility index   , also known as Wall Street's fear gauge, was up for a second straight session and hit its highest level since the end of January.Online real-estate platform Zillow Group Inc    jumped 12.7% after beating Wall Street estimates for quarterly sales, boosted by an 11-fold revenue increase in its homes segment.Under Armour Inc    slumped 12.5% after warning that its profit margin would be under pressure in the current quarter.Declining issues outnumbered advancers on the NYSE by a 2.40-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.54-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted 15 new 52-week highs and 13 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 40 new highs and 208 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":415,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9096679578,"gmtCreate":1644383260518,"gmtModify":1676533919910,"author":{"id":"4101101662246600","authorId":"4101101662246600","name":"awzh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101101662246600","authorIdStr":"4101101662246600"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"all in","listText":"all in","text":"all in","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9096679578","repostId":"2209583511","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2209583511","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1644376649,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2209583511?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-09 11:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Down 27% to 85%: 2 Buffett Stocks to Buy for 2022 and Beyond","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2209583511","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These two stocks could be among the most explosive in the Berkshire Hathaway portfolio.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Warren Buffett is best known as a value-investing guru, but the fact that <b>Apple</b> is by far the largest stock holding in the <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B) portfolio shows the famous investor doesn&#39;t maintain an overly strict dichotomy between &#34;value stocks&#34; and &#34;growth stocks.&#34;</p><p>Intelligent, long-term investing decisions have helped the investing conglomerate deliver returns of more than 5,200% over the last 30 years and go up more than 2,600,000% since Buffett took over the company in 1965.

There&#39;s a good chance the public may never know which charity or charities benefited from the approximately $5.7 billion in Tesla <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$(TSLA)$</a> stock Musk donated in 2021.</p><p>While there are some public-disclosure laws in philanthropy, billionaire donors like Musk can easily keep the details of their giving under wraps, and it&#39;s legal for them to do so.</p><p>Musk -- who signed the Giving Pledge in 2012, promising to give away most of his wealth -- doesn&#39;t send out press releases announcing his donations, though he occasionally tweets about them. Tesla doesn&#39;t typically respond to press inquiries (it did not for this story), and there&#39;s no contact information listed on Musk&#39;s foundation&#39;s bare-bones website. The Tesla stock donation was revealed in an SEC filing Monday that described the donated shares as a gift &#34;to charity,&#34; but didn&#39;t specify which one.</p><p>One possible candidate is the United Nations World Food Program. Musk got into a public <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> spat with the WFP shortly before he donated the stock, and said he would donate $6 billion to the hunger relief agency if it could show how the money would &#34;solve world hunger.&#34; A WFP spokesman initially told MarketWatch this week that it doesn&#39;t disclose donors, but allows donors to publicize their gifts themselves. The WFP&#39;s executive director later said that the group had not received any funds yet from Musk, and added that &#34;I am excited to hear that Elon is engaged. This is an amazing and great first step.&#34;</p><p>At a time when billionaires are riding high and exerting growing influence over the public sphere, the lack of transparency around Musk&#39;s donation is the latest example of how elite philanthropists can evade scrutiny too easily, critics say.</p><p>&#34;Come on. There has to be a middle-ground [between] preening, self-congratulatory mega-giving &amp; complete non-disclosure,&#34; wrote philanthropy historian Ben Soskis on Twitter(TWTR) in response to the lack of information on Musk&#39;s stock donation. &#34;If not, we&#39;re gonna need a pretty radical overhaul of our [regulations] relating to individual giving &amp; anonymity.&#34;</p><p>Soskis, a senior research associate in the Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute, added, &#34;If you are giving a gift of over $5 [billion], you should publicly announce where the money is going to. As a fundamental matter of public interest.&#34;</p><p><b>How the public could find out where Musk&#39;s donation went</b></p><p>The recipients of Musk&#39;s donation could eventually come to light if Musk gave the stock to his private foundation and the foundation liquidated it and handed out the money as grants to nonprofits. In that case, the Musk Foundation would have to publicly list its major donors and the nonprofits that received the grants in a filing with the IRS. Foundations, which exist to hand out money for public benefit, are required to file that paperwork annually.</p><p>The most recent IRS filing for the Musk Foundation shows that Musk donated 11,000 Tesla shares to it in 2019. The foundation gave a $1 million grant to George Mason University &#34;for COVID-19 scientific research,&#34; made several other grants to schools and other recipients, and gave a $20.7 million donation to Fidelity Charitable, where Musk appears to keep a donor-advised fund.</p><p><b>Why the recipients of Musk stock donation could easily stay secret</b></p><p>There are several other scenarios where the recipients of Musk&#39;s largesse would never be revealed. Musk may have put the money into a donor-advised fund at Fidelity Charitable. DAFs, a type of charitable giving account, function as middlemen. They hold money the donor has earmarked for charity and then distribute it to nonprofits chosen by the donor. When the nonprofits receive the money, it comes from the DAF, not the donor, and there&#39;s no paper trail connecting the donor directly to the nonprofit.</p><p>DAFs have come under fire because account holders get a tax break when they put money into a DAF, but there&#39;s no deadline for when donors must distribute the money to charities. A bill recently introduced in Congress would change some of the laws around DAFs with the aim of moving money more quickly into the hands of charities.</p><p>&#34;The Musk donation serves as a reminder that current laws allow for donors to get a tax deduction up front without any requirement that $ ever gets to the community,&#34; wrote billionaire John Arnold, a supporter of the DAF reform legislation, on Twitter. &#34;Money can sit in DAF accounts forever.&#34;</p><p>DAF providers say those criticisms are wrong. Fidelity Charitable released its 2022 giving report Tuesday, which showed that in 2021, its DAF account holders recommended &#34;a record $10.3 billion in grants, 41% more dollars than pre-pandemic giving in 2019.&#34; The report also noted that &#34;donors are recommending grants at a more rapid pace -- an average of 12.4 grants per account in 2021, compared to 7.4 a decade ago.&#34;</p><p>A spokesman for Fidelity Charitable declined to comment on Musk.</p><p>Musk could also fly under the radar with his stock donation if he put it into a charitable limited liability company, a type of giving vehicle used by philanthropists such as Meta (formerly Facebook <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">$(FB)$</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, and Melinda French Gates, the former wife of Microsoft <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a> founder Bill Gates. Charitable LLCs can make grants to nonprofits and invest in for-profit ventures, but they aren&#39;t required to publicly disclose their spending.</p><p>If Musk gave the stock directly to a nonprofit, the group wouldn&#39;t be required to publicly disclose him as the donor. Nonprofits must disclose their major donors to the IRS, but they are not required to identify those donors publicly, said Gene Takagi, a lawyer specializing in nonprofit law at NEO Law Group in San Francisco.</p><p>&#34;There are debates over the need for greater transparency, particularly with very large gifts that can shift public policy and possibly elections through permissible charity advocacy activities,&#34; Takagi siad. &#34; In my own personal opinion, the danger of less transparency, for example in the area of campaign finance, could seriously weaken our democracy.&#34;</p><p>Others say that donors should be allowed to preserve their privacy. Keeping donor information private &#34;enables potentially controversial or less popular causes to receive financial support from individuals without posing a public risk to donors,&#34; wrote Independent Sector, a coalition of nonprofits and foundations. Organizations shouldn&#39;t have to disclose their donors if they&#39;re involved in &#34;issues for which donor disclosure would create a substantial likelihood of personal harm to donors,&#34; the group said.</p><p><b>Other billionaires have been more public about recent giving</b></p><p>Billionaire philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, the former wife of Amazon <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a> founder Jeff Bezos, drew criticism in December when she announced that she had made a round of donations, but didn&#39;t want to reveal the amounts she gave or the recipients.

The analyst said: &#34;In our eyes, this growth appears to be in the early-to-mid stages of the growth curve, and with no signs of supply alleviating in the near term, it provides a nice backdrop for the gaming segment.

And a new read on retail sales will be released Wednesday giving investors more insights into consumer spending.</p><p>Concerns over military action by the Kremlin have created a new headwind for investors, particularly after the White House warned on Friday that a possible invasion of Ukraine by Russia could come within days. The statement dealt a fresh blow to markets.</p><p>“The Russia-Ukraine tensions have hovered over already shaky investor sentiment,” Comerica Wealth Management Chief Investment Officer John Lynch said in a note. “Investors have been counting on a diplomatic resolution, but recent developments indicate this may be wishful thinking and therefore, not fully priced into the markets.”</p><p>The geopolitical tensions add to the uncertainty around central bank policy that has dominated market sentiment in recent months. Friday’s warning by the Biden administration weighed on stocks and sent oil prices soaring to a seven-year high.</p><p>“By pushing energy prices even higher, a Russian invasion would likely exacerbate inflation and redouble pressure on the Fed to raise interest rates,” Comerica Bank Chief Economist Bill Adams said in a note. “From the Fed’s perspective, the inflationary effects of a Russian invasion and higher energy prices would likely outweigh the shock’s negative implications for global growth.”</p><p>The Fed is already under pressure to act on the fastest increase in prices in 40 years. Wall Street was rattled last week by a highly-anticipated fresh print on the Labor Department’s Consumer Price Index (CPI), which notched a steeper-than-expected 7.5% increase over the year ended January to mark the largest annual jump since 1982. The surge heightened calls for the Federal Reserve to intervene more aggressively than anticipated to rein in soaring price levels, even raising the possibility of an emergency hike before the bank’s next policy meeting in March.</p><p>“As the inflation fire burns even hotter, the Federal Reserve will have to bring an even bigger firehose to put it out,” FWDBONDS Chief Economist Chris Rupkey said in a note.</p><p>Worries over above-estimated inflation have raised questions about whether or not the central bank might deliver on a 50 basis point move in mid-March. The Fed has not executed a “double” rate increase in a single policy decision since May 2000.</p><p>Fed watchers including Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank had ramped up their calls on how many times policymakers will increase rates. Goldman now sees the Federal Reserve hiking short-term borrowing costs seven times this year rather than the five it had expected earlier, while Deutsche Bank projects a 50 basis point rate hike in March and five more 25 basis point increases in the year.</p><p>CME Group&#39;s FedWatch tool showed investors were pricing in a 99% chance Fed policymakers will raise rates by 50 basis points in March as of Friday, a jump of 24% from the probability reflected two days earlier.</p><p>Some experts say the projections are greatly exaggerated.</p><p>“Even with elevated levels of inflation, we expect the Federal Reserve to tighten less than the market expects in 2022,” Treasury Partners Chief Investment Officer Richard Saperstein said in a note.</p><p>“We do not expect the Federal Reserve to announce rate hikes at every meeting and such extreme tightening scenarios suggest that we’re currently witnessing peak Fed mania,” he wrote, adding a moderate tightening process through a combination of rate hikes and the implementation of quantitative tightening starting this summer were likely.</p><p>On the geopolitical front, LPL Financial’s Ryan Detrick also appeared to temper the notion that a move by Russia into Ukraine would crash the stock market, pointing out that, historically, the great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II did not put much of a dent in equities and losses were typically recovered quickly.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/874e40dd031fe2fadf0415f24e036dcc\" tg-width=\"5500\" tg-height=\"3667\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>U.S. President Joe Biden holds virtual talks with Russia&#39;s President Vladimir Putin amid Western fears that Moscow plans to attack Ukraine, as Secretary of State Antony Blinken listens with other officials during a secure video call from the Situation Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., December 7, 2021.

This would compare to December&#39;s decline of 2.3%.</p><p>&#34;The mom [month-over-month] gain in retail ex auto was negatively impacted by restaurants and gas spending, which were down 1.7% and 3.8% mom, respectively. As a result, the core control group, which nets out auto, gas, building and restaurants showed a strong 1.9% mom gain,&#34; said BofA Securities in a research note last week. &#34;Keep in mind that the Census retail sales report does not capture services spending other than restaurants spending so the impact on Census Bureau data from the Omicron distortions will be fairly muted.&#34;</p><p>Although earnings season is slowly winding down, another docket of corporate results remains underway for investors to weigh against monetary and geopolitical conditions this week.</p><p>Retail giant Walmart (WMT) will report fiscal fourth quarter 2021 earnings Thursday before the bell which will provide a fresh look into supply-chain issues as well as consumer spending.

The surge heightened calls for the Federal Reserve to intervene more aggressively than anticipated to rein in soaring price levels, even raising the possibility of an emergency hike before the bank’s next policy meeting in March.“As the inflation fire burns even hotter, the Federal Reserve will have to bring an even bigger firehose to put it out,” FWDBONDS Chief Economist Chris Rupkey said in a note.Worries over above-estimated inflation have raised questions about whether or not the central bank might deliver on a 50 basis point move in mid-March. The Fed has not executed a “double” rate increase in a single policy decision since May 2000.Fed watchers including Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank had ramped up their calls on how many times policymakers will increase rates. Goldman now sees the Federal Reserve hiking short-term borrowing costs seven times this year rather than the five it had expected earlier, while Deutsche Bank projects a 50 basis point rate hike in March and five more 25 basis point increases in the year.CME Group's FedWatch tool showed investors were pricing in a 99% chance Fed policymakers will raise rates by 50 basis points in March as of Friday, a jump of 24% from the probability reflected two days earlier.Some experts say the projections are greatly exaggerated.“Even with elevated levels of inflation, we expect the Federal Reserve to tighten less than the market expects in 2022,” Treasury Partners Chief Investment Officer Richard Saperstein said in a note.“We do not expect the Federal Reserve to announce rate hikes at every meeting and such extreme tightening scenarios suggest that we’re currently witnessing peak Fed mania,” he wrote, adding a moderate tightening process through a combination of rate hikes and the implementation of quantitative tightening starting this summer were likely.On the geopolitical front, LPL Financial’s Ryan Detrick also appeared to temper the notion that a move by Russia into Ukraine would crash the stock market, pointing out that, historically, the great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II did not put much of a dent in equities and losses were typically recovered quickly.U.S. President Joe Biden holds virtual talks with Russia's President Vladimir Putin amid Western fears that Moscow plans to attack Ukraine, as Secretary of State Antony Blinken listens with other officials during a secure video call from the Situation Room at the White House in Washington, U.S., December 7, 2021. The White House/Handout via REUTERS THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN SUPPLIED BY A THIRD PARTY TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYHandout . / reuters“You can’t minimize what today’s news could mean on that part of the world and the people impacted, but from an investment point of view we need to remember that major geopolitical events historically haven’t moved stocks much,” Detrick said.As an example, Detrick cited one of the best six-month runs in U.S. stocks ever following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963.“The truth is a solid economy can make up for a lot of sins,” Detrick added.The great majority of geopolitical events going back to World War II didn’t put much of a dent in stocks, with any losses made up quite quickly, according to Ryan Detrick, hief Market Strategist for LPL Financial.LPL Financial,Retail salesConsensus economists are expecting to see retail sales, released by the U.S. Census Bureau, rise by 2% in January compared to December's decrease of 1.9%, but sales excluding autos, gasoline, building materials and food services is expected to rise at a softer 0.8%, according to Bloomberg data. This would compare to December's decline of 2.3%.\"The mom [month-over-month] gain in retail ex auto was negatively impacted by restaurants and gas spending, which were down 1.7% and 3.8% mom, respectively. As a result, the core control group, which nets out auto, gas, building and restaurants showed a strong 1.9% mom gain,\" said BofA Securities in a research note last week. \"Keep in mind that the Census retail sales report does not capture services spending other than restaurants spending so the impact on Census Bureau data from the Omicron distortions will be fairly muted.\"Although earnings season is slowly winding down, another docket of corporate results remains underway for investors to weigh against monetary and geopolitical conditions this week.Retail giant Walmart (WMT) will report fiscal fourth quarter 2021 earnings Thursday before the bell which will provide a fresh look into supply-chain issues as well as consumer spending. Walmart is expected to report adjusted earnings of $1.50 per share on revenue of $151.51 billion for the quarter, according to Bloomberg consensus. U.S. same-store sales is expected to increase 6.1%, ahead of guidance of 5%, for the holiday shopping quarter, according to Bloomberg.\"We believe WMT's core business remained strong in F4Q following a strong F3Q (US comps were +9.2%, with transactions +5.7%), and given strong inventory positioning (supported by more favorable port access, long-term container shipping agreements and chartered vessel capacity) that likely supported share gains vs. smaller competitors this holiday.\" said BofA Securities in a research note on Feb. 10.Other big-name companies to report earnings through Friday include ViacomCBS (VIAC), Airbnb (ABNB), Cisco Systems (CSCO), and Roku (ROKU).On Capitol Hill, the fate of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and a lineup of central bank nominees including Fed governor and vice chair pick Lael Brainard will be in focus as the Senate Banking Committee readies to hold a series of confirmation votes this week.Economic calendarMonday: No notable reports scheduled for releaseTuesday: Producer Price Index (PPI) final demand, month-over-month, January (0.5% expected, 0.2% in December, upwardly revised to 0.3%); PPI excluding food and energy, month-over-month, January (0.4% expected, 0.5% in December); PPI excluding food, energy, and trade, month-over-month, January (0.4% expected, 0.4% in December, downwardly revised to 0.3%); PPI year-over-year, January (9.0% expected, 9.7% in December); PPI, year-over-year, January (7.8% expected, 8.3% in December); PPI excluding food and energy, year-over-year, January (6.3% expected, 6.9% in December); PPI excluding food, energy, and trade, year-over-year, January (6.3% expected, 6.9% in December); Empire Manufacturing, February (11.0 expected, -0.7 during prior month); Net Long-Term TIC Outflows, December ($137.4 billion during prior month); Total Net TIC Outflows, December ($223.9 billion during prior month)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended Feb. 11 (-8.1% during prior week); Retail Sales Advance, month-over-month, January (2.0% expected, -1.9% in December); Retail Sales excluding autos, month-over-month, January (0.8% expected, -2.3% in December); Retail Sales excluding autos and gas, month-over-month, January (1.0% expected, -2.5% in December); Import Price Index, month-over-month, January (1.3% expected, -0.2% in December); Import Price Index excluding petroleum, month-over-month, January (0.4% expected, 0.3% in December); Import Price Endex, year-over-year, January (9.8% expected, 10.4% in December); Export Price Index, month-over-month, January (1.3% expected, -1.8% in December); Export Price Index, year-over-year, January (14.7% in December); Industrial Production, month-over-month, January (0.4% expected, -0.1% in December); Capacity Utilization, January (76.8% expected, 76.5% in December); Manufacturing (SIC) Production, January (0.3% expected, -0.3% in December); Business Inventories, December (2.1% expected,1.3% in November); NAHB Housing Market Index, February (83 expected, 83 in January); FOMC Meeting Minutes, January 26Thursday: Building permits, January (1.750 million expected, 1.873 million in December, upwardly revised to 1.885 million); Building permits, month-over-month, January (-7.2% expected, 9.1% in December, upwardly revised to 9.8%); Housing starts, January (1.700 million expected, 1.702 million in December); Housing starts, month-over-month, January (-0.1% expected, 1.4% in December); Initial jobless claims, week ended Feb. 12 (220,000 expected, 223,000 during prior week); Continuing claims, week ended Feb. 5 (1.621 million during prior week); Philadelphia Fed Business Outlook Index, February (20.0 expected, 23.2 in January)Friday: Existing Home Sales, January (6.10 million expected, 6.18 million in December); Existing Home Sales, month-over-month, January (-1.3% expected, -4.6% in December); Leading Index, January (0.2% expected, 0.8% in December)Earnings calendarMondayBefore market open: TreeHouse Foods (THS), Weber Inc.

The stock nosedived after the company released its latest quarterly results on Feb. 1. Gilead&#39;s performance for the past three months of 2021 was underwhelming with the company&#39;s sales of $7.2 billion declining 2.4% from the same period a year ago.

The company, which makes healthcare masks and respirators, was a popular investment during the pandemic&#39;s early stages. And as COVID-19 case numbers began to subside last year and hopes about a return to normal rose, interest in the stock began to wane.</p><p>The company released fourth-quarter numbers on Jan. 25, reporting sales of $8.6 billion for the period ended Dec. 31, 2021. That was flat from the prior year. Meanwhile, net income declined by 4.7% to $1.3 billion. By contrast, sales rose 5.8% in 2020&#39;s fourth quarter. That was largely due to an increase in safety and industrial revenue (including personal hygiene products and masks). This time around, however, that segment of its business fell 2% to about $3.1 billion.</p><p>Other business units (healthcare, transportation and electronics) are smaller and also showed little or no growth. The lone exception and growth catalyst in Q4 was its consumer business (e.g. bandages, cleaning, and stationery products) which rose by 4% and helped keep the quarter&#39;s sales just slightly above the prior-year numbers. All this diversification makes the business resilient -- and as a whole, 3M continues to do well. For all of 2021, net sales rose 10% year over year to $35.4 billion.</p><p>For income investors, the company&#39;s payouts look more than safe even if the growth rate starts to falter. 3M is a Dividend King thanks to increasing its dividend payments for more than 60 years in a row. And there&#39;s little doubt that streak will continue; it paid out $5.92 per share in dividends for 2021. With an EPS of $10.12, that puts its payout ratio at just 58%. So there&#39;s plenty of room for the company to continue making and increasing payouts.</p><p>3M shares haven&#39;t been this low since the fall of 2020, and the stock&#39;s yield is currently at 3.7%. Now could be a great time to add this investment to your 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>2 High-Yield Dividend Stocks That Are Trading Near Their 52-Week Lows</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\">\n2 High-Yield Dividend Stocks That Are Trading Near Their 52-Week Lows\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-11 23:15 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/02/10/2-high-yield-dividend-stocks-that-are-trading-near/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>When dividend stocks go on sale, it can be an opportunity for investors to lock in a higher-than-normal yield.

But Tesla apparently won&#39;t pay a cent.</p><p>Tesla may not plan to pay federal taxes any time in the foreseeable future -- even though the company just reported by far its most profitable year ever. In 2021, Tesla recorded net income of $5.5 billion, and adjusted income of $7.6 billion.</p><p>But buried in a footnote of its recent annual financial filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Tesla reports that its US operations lost $130 million last year on a pre-tax basis. It claims that all of its pre-tax profits — more than $6 billion worth — came from overseas operations, even though 45% of its revenue came from US sales.</p><p>Although Tesla indicates its foreign tax bill came to $839 million, its state tax bill was only $9 million. And its federal tax bill was zero.</p><p>&#34;That defies common sense, but it does not defy the US tax code,&#34; said Martin Sullivan, chief economist for Tax Analysts, a nonprofit tax publisher, and an expert on US corporate tax practices.</p><p><b>Moving profits overseas — on paper</b></p><p>Sullivan said he believes the $130 million loss on its US operations is most likely due to a common practice for US multinational corporations: structuring their operations so that overseas subsidiaries are the ones reporting income, leaving the US operation to have little or no taxable income to report.</p><p>For example, a company can assign its intellectual property to one of those foreign entities, and charge its US unit a fee for using that property. And thus, the foreign operation is very profitable, while the US company — burdened with &#34;costs&#34; to the company itself — reports either a loss or very little income.</p><p>&#34;It&#39;s a US multinational thing. It&#39;s very common. It&#39;s almost malpractice not to do that,&#34; said Sullivan.</p><p>A recent report from the US Department of the Treasury found 61% of the international profits ofUS multinational companies are booked in seven small countries -- Bermuda, the Caymans, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Singapore and Switzerland -- known as tax havens. It&#39;s a practice that many elected officials and the Biden administration have vowed to crack down on.</p><p>&#34;Tesla and other giant corporations have long used scams and loopholes to help them get out of paying taxes -- that has to stop,&#34; said Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a frequent critic of Musk. &#34;Democrats are working to end Republican tax cuts for corporations shifting profits and jobs overseas.&#34;</p><p>However, Congress has so far failed to take action to stop it.</p><p>The financial filing by Tesla doesn&#39;t spell out what it did exactly, though. For example, it doesn&#39;t say which country or countries it made its profit in while reporting a US loss. And Tesla declined to respond to a question about its filing.</p><p><b>Tesla doesn&#39;t expect to pay US taxes any time soon</b></p><p>Considering the substantial financial help that Tesla has long received from government support for its electric cars, the company doesn&#39;t have to use a shell game of offshoring its profits to avoid paying taxes. Instead, it could use past losses to shelter its current income from any tax bill.</p><p>Once again, this is a common practice for companies that lose money: losses result in a future tax break.</p><p>Tech companies that lose money for years before turning a profit — such as Amazon(AMZN) — have used this technique. So have old line companies that have financial problems, such as all US airlines, which will probably not have to pay taxes for years to come after recording billions of dollars in losses during the pandemic — despite receiving billions in federal help.</p><p>Similarly, Tesla&#39;s US automaking competitors lost so much money in the first decade of this century that General Motors (GM) and Chrysler needed government bailouts. Despite those bailouts, neither company paid taxes for several years once they were again profitable.</p><p>Past losses are a huge and very valuable future tax benefit known as &#34;net operating loss carry-forwards.&#34;</p><p>Tesla was losing money for more than a decade before it finally started reporting net income in 2020. Those were real losses, which occurred when the costs of developing and building its cars in its early years far outstripped the money it could sell them for. It did so with the expectation that it would turn a profit in the future as demand increased and costs declined. That&#39;s exactly what happened.</p><p>But, in running up billions of dollars in losses, Tesla was able to accumulate net operating loss carry-forwards that it could use in the future.</p><p>Still, Tesla disclosed in this week&#39;s financial filing that it did not use any of those past losses to shield current income from taxes. And it took a bookkeeping maneuver that suggests it doesn&#39;t know if it will ever have to use those past losses to shield its US income.</p><p>Tesla is rather bullish about its future, expecting annual sales growth of 50% for the foreseeable future. If it believed that its pre-tax losses in its domestic operations was temporary, it likely would not have not taken that step of reducing the value of those past losses as a way of eliminating future US taxes, according to Sullivan.</p><p><b>Is Tesla losing money at home?</b></p><p>There&#39;s another possible reason that Tesla might have reported a pre-tax loss on its US operations:—one that isn&#39;t as much an accounting maneuver designed to lower taxes as it is a warning sign about the viability of the company. Perhaps it still is losing money on the cars it is selling in the United States, and it can only make money using the lower costs of a relatively new factory in Shanghai, China.</p><p>That&#39;s what one of Tesla&#39;s most fervent critics and doubters believes. Gordon Johnson of GLJ Research, points out that Tesla was losing money overall until after it started producing cars in Shanghai in October 2019. He believes that investors are giving Tesla too much credit for profits in the US that he doesn&#39;t believe are real.</p><p>&#34;I think it&#39;s a massive deal,&#34; he said about Tesla&#39;s filing this week. &#34;They effectively said they don&#39;t plan on utilizing any of the net loss carry forwards. That means their US operations are losing money. It&#39;s an argument we&#39;ve made over and over again. Outside of China, Tesla loses money.&#34;</p><p>But other analysts who have examined its books insist Tesla&#39;s profits, both at home and overseas, are real, no matter what its US tax forms say.</p><p>Johnson said if he&#39;s wrong, it&#39;s up to Tesla to be more transparent.</p><p>&#34;The reality is, until they provide disclosure, both explanations could be right,&#34; he said.</p><p><b>Musk&#39;s rare big tax bill</b></p><p>Musk has a history of using the US tax code to pay little or no personal federal income taxes. A report from ProPublica shows that for 2018 Musk and many other Americans near the top of the world&#39;s richest people paid no income tax.</p><p>In Musk&#39;s case, he receives no salary from Tesla, only very valuable stock options, as a form of compensation. And under US tax code he doesn&#39;t have to pay taxes on those options until he exercises them to buy shares of stock at a fraction of their current value.</p><p>He also would have to pay taxes if he sells shares he already held because of his earlier investment in the company, which he has rarely done. But he did that last year as well.</p><p>Musk has not exercised most of the options that he holds. But he had options to buy 22.9 million shares that were due to expire in August 2022, and started exercising those options to buy additional shares late last year.</p><p>In total, he spent $142.6 million to purchase shares worth $23.6 billion, giving him $23.5 billion in in taxable income, taxable for 2021 at a federal rate of about 41%.</p><p>Musk also sold a small fraction of the additional shares he already owned, sales that fetched a taxable $5.8 billion at a lower capital gains rate.</p><p>Together those stock trades likely resulted in roughly an $11 billion federal tax bill, which he has tweeted about.</p><p>But that could well be the last time for years to come that he&#39;s paying a substantial federal tax,unless Congress passes one of the various proposals to tax the net worth of the nation&#39;s wealthiest individuals, rather than just their income.
