While we can't pinpoint or point a straight line using -- when we look at the data on a competitive impact, there may be some kind of more on the marginal kind of side of our growth, some impact from competition but -- which, again, we just don't see it specifically.</blockquote><p>Co-CEO and founder Reed Hastings elaborated, "Our execution is steady and getting better. So for now, we're just like staying calm and trying to figure out. Again, the COVID has introduced so much noise. It just wants us to give it some pause as we work on everything we've always worked on."</p><p>Obviously, with management kind of shrugging its shoulders at the subscriber miss, bearish arguments will find their way into the mix. These include the fear that perhaps Netflix's addressable market isn't as big as some thought, while another big concern is that competition from new streaming services is eating into Netflix's growth.</p><h2>Reason to buy No. 1: Leadership and pricing power</h2><p>Short-term worries like those listed above can be great buying opportunities, provided the company has staying power and a bright future.</p><p>I do think that's the case for Netflix. As a primary reason to buy, Netflix is far and away the leader in streaming, with global reach and economies of scale. Thanks to its first-mover status, aggressive content spending, and superb execution, Netflix is still likely the first streaming service many will buy, even as more and more streamers enter the market.</p><p>One silver lining in the earnings report was that management revealed engagement metrics remain high and churn remains low, even if net additions are harder to come by. That seems to indicate Netflix hasn't lost its luster in consumers' eyes. Perhaps that's why management just raised prices for U.S. and Canadian customers earlier this month.</p><p>Netflix has been able to raise prices in the past without much long-term damage to its subscriber growth, a big indication of its pricing power. Amid inflation concerns, companies that are able to raise prices without losing customers have a huge advantage in the environment we are seeing now.</p><h2>Reason No. 2: Big fish are buying... big!</h2><p>Secondly, two major investors displayed confidence in Netflix's long-term future right after the post-earnings swoon. One of them happens to be the aforementioned founder Hastings, who bought just over 50,000 shares between $387 and $393 per share, good for about $20 million.</p><p>Those purchases came just after a big buy from hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, who purchased 3.1 million shares in his fund, Pershing Square Capital Management, between Friday, Jan. 21 through Wednesday, Jan. 26. Not only did Ackman purchase Netflix stock in size, but he also sold out of his interest rate hedges in order to do it. In his letter to his partners, Ackman said that while Pershing Square expected to make even more money on his interest rate hedges as rates rise this year, he thought the long-term return potential in Netflix was even greater, so he sold the hedges to buy Netflix stock.</p><p>Ackman has scored some big wins in similar best-in-class consumer discretionary brands when they've gotten into trouble, such as <b>Chipotle</b> and <b>Starbucks</b>, so to see him go big into Netflix is a big vote of confidence, as is Hastings' $20 million buy.</p><h2>Reason No. 3: It's turning free-cash-flow positive</h2><p>Unlike most of its FAANG peers, Netflix has been an outlier in that it hadn't historically produced positive free cash flow. As many painfully know now, the market is reassessing these types of growth stocks with negative cash flow, with many having sold off hard over the past three months. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve has not even begun raising rates yet. Many expect rate increases to begin in March, and that could be a further headwind for cash-burning tech stocks -- although I personally think some of those fears are overdone.</p><p>While Netflix has had positive earnings for some time now, it has yet to produce positive free cash flow since it began investing in its own content. That's because it has been spending more on new content than it has been depreciating its historical content spending. For Netflix, content spending, from an accounting perspective, is akin to capital expenditures for industrial firms. The initial outlay is capitalized on the cash flow statement, then depreciated on the income statement over the life of that content.</p><p>However, the cash flow picture should be changing this year. Netflix came close to cash flow breakeven in 2021, and now predicts positive free cash flow in 2022 for the first time in its modern era of proprietary content spending. Once Netflix pays down a little bit of debt to its target level, it will begin returning cash to shareholders in the form of share repurchases.</p><h2>The good outweighs the bad</h2><p>Netflix's slowing growth has likely made it a sell for momentum and growth investors, while its stock is likely not "cheap" enough to attract value-based funds, at around 38.6 times this year's earnings estimates. That kind of dynamic has likely caused the stock to fall further than it should.</p><p>While the pace of net additions is a big question mark in the near term, earnings should grow by leaps and bounds in the coming years as Netflix continues to grow revenue faster than costs, and management lowers the share count through repurchases. I think the good outweighs the bad here.</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>3 Reasons to Buy Netflix, 1 Reason to Sell</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Reasons to Buy Netflix, 1 Reason to Sell\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-01 21:29 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/02/01/3-reasons-to-buy-netflix-1-reason-to-sell/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) has had quite the ride this year, and we're only one month into 2022!

Amid the marketwide sell-off on interest rate fears and a less-than-stellar earnings report, Netflix is down about 30% on the year -- and that's despite a big gain in Monday's trading.After the plunge, is Netflix a buy? Or are the concerns raised on its earnings call, as well as possible interest rate increases, reasons to say away?Image source: Getty Images.The concern: slowing growth, and not many answers from managementNetflix sold off big after the company missed its subscriber growth forecast for the fourth quarter, at 8.3 million versus the 8.5 million to which it guided, while also guiding to weaker-than-expected net additions in the first quarter of 2.5 million versus last year's 4 million. While many companies are now blaming the omicron surge and supply chain issues for their earnings misses, Netflix management was upfront in admitting that it didn't have any easy answers on current slower pace of growth.On the conference call with analysts, chief financial officer Spencer Neumann said:It's tough to say exactly why our acquisition hasn't, you know, kind of recovered to pre-COVID levels. It's probably a bit of just overall COVID overhang that's still happening after two years of a global pandemic that we're still unfortunately not fully out of, some macroeconomic strain in some parts of the world like Latin America in particular. While we can't pinpoint or point a straight line using -- when we look at the data on a competitive impact, there may be some kind of more on the marginal kind of side of our growth, some impact from competition but -- which, again, we just don't see it specifically.Co-CEO and founder Reed Hastings elaborated, \"Our execution is steady and getting better.

The chart below shows that, from a seasonality perspective, December and January tend to be the worst months to own AAPL.While AAPL managed to climb through the end of December 2021, January has, in fact, been a challenging month for the stock so far.Figure 3: Average monthly returns vs. S&P 500 (seasonality).The better news is that February tends to mark a long, four-month period of outperformance over the S&P 500. This is probably the case because investors finally leave behind concerns over the performance of the new iPhone in the holiday quarter and start to think longer term.Don’t forget fundamentals and valueOf course, earnings trends and seasonality are only two factors to consider when deciding whether to buy Apple stock. More important is to assess Apple’s business fundamentals, and how much an investor might be willing to pay for them.I believe that the Cupertno company continues to be one of the best (if not the best) consumer product and service companies in the world. My concern until recently was whether valuations were a bit too rich, following the dizzying Q4 rally.Here, I am slightly encouraged by the fact that AAPL price has dipped 8% from the January 3 peak. While $167 per share still does not sound like a once-in-a-lifetime bargain, the figure is easier on the eyes of a buyer than $180-plus.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":299,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004276699,"gmtCreate":1642633624439,"gmtModify":1676533729110,"author":{"id":"4101735018438310","authorId":"4101735018438310","name":"Kel0702","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101735018438310","authorIdStr":"4101735018438310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hold tight.

Apple also generated strong sales growth last year as it rolled out its first family of 5G devices, but it provides a more stable blend of value and growth.</p><p>The differences between Roblox and Apple grew stark as rising inflation and interest rates rattled the tech sector.</p><p>Over the past month, Roblox's stock sank more than 20% as those macroeconomic headwinds caused investors to sell their shares of expensive, speculative, and unprofitable tech companies. Roblox checked all three boxes.</p><p>Meanwhile, Apple's stock rose nearly 10% as investors rotated toward safer blue-chip tech stocks. Analysts also fueled that rally by boosting their long-term expectations for Apple's upcoming AR, VR, and vehicle-related products. But will Apple stay ahead of Roblox throughout the rest of 2022?</p><h2>Roblox is an exciting metaverse play</h2><p>Roblox's platform enables people to create and share simple block-based games without any coding experience. It also enables its users to monetize their games with an in-game currency called Robux.</p><p>Roblox's simple approach made it popular with tween users. As a result, its revenue jumped 82% in 2020 as more students stayed at home and spent more time on their computers throughout the pandemic.</p><p>The bears expected Roblox's growth to decelerate in a post-lockdown market, but that slowdown hasn't happened yet. It generated triple-digit sales growth in the first nine months of 2021, and analysts expect its revenue to soar 196% for the full year.</p><p>Roblox's daily active users (DAUs) rose 31% year-over-year to 47.3 million in the third quarter. A fifth of those users came from the Asia-Pacific region, which outpaced all of its other markets with 75% year-over-year growth. The company's growth cycle could last for a long time, since its creators constantly create new experiences to attract more players. It's also an attractive platform for companies to launch new metaverse experiences.</p><p>However, its net losses continue to widen as it pays out high developer exchange fees (the cash payments for creators who trade in their Robux for real-world currencies) and big stock-based compensation expenses. Next year, analysts expect Roblox's revenue to rise 21% against some tough year-over-year comparisons as its net loss widens again.</p><p>Roblox's stock isn't extremely expensive at 16 times next year's sales, but that price-to-sales ratio is still a bit frothy for a company with murky long-term growth prospects. It's still unclear if Roblox's tween users will stick around as they age, if it can lower Robux's exchange rate to boost its margins without alienating its creators, and if it will ever turn a profit. Those uncertainties make Roblox a tough stock to own as interest rates rise.</p><h2>But Apple offers more predictable returns</h2><p>Apple's revenue rose 33% in fiscal 2021, which ended last September. Its iPhone sales, which accounted for over half of its top line, jumped 39% after it rolled out its first family of 5G devices. Its diluted earnings per share, which benefited from nearly $86 billion in stock buybacks, soared 71%.</p><p>Analysts expect Apple's revenue and earnings to grow just 4% and 2%, respectively, this year, as the 5G upgrade cycle cools off. The ongoing chip shortages and supply chain challenges will also throttle its growth.</p><p>That slowdown is disappointing, but investors should recognize Apple's other strengths. A recent CIRP survey found that 90% of iPhone users plan to stick with Apple instead of switching to an Android device. It also ended fiscal 2021 with 745 million paid subscribers across all of its services, which grew nearly five times from five years ago and further increases the stickiness of its ecosystem.</p><p>Apple's hardware sales should stabilize after it resolves its supply chain shortages, and its luxury appeal will enable it to easily pass on its higher costs to consumers -- which makes it an inflation-resistant investment. Rising interest rates also aren't a major issue for Apple, since it's firmly profitable and ended last year with $191 billion in cash and marketable securities.</p><p>Apple will likely introduce new augmented reality, virtual reality, and electric vehicle products to significantly expand its ecosystem over the next few years.

Apple also generated strong sales growth last year as it rolled out its first family of 5G devices, but it provides a more stable blend of value and growth.The differences between Roblox and Apple grew stark as rising inflation and interest rates rattled the tech sector.Over the past month, Roblox's stock sank more than 20% as those macroeconomic headwinds caused investors to sell their shares of expensive, speculative, and unprofitable tech companies. Roblox checked all three boxes.Meanwhile, Apple's stock rose nearly 10% as investors rotated toward safer blue-chip tech stocks. Analysts also fueled that rally by boosting their long-term expectations for Apple's upcoming AR, VR, and vehicle-related products. But will Apple stay ahead of Roblox throughout the rest of 2022?Roblox is an exciting metaverse playRoblox's platform enables people to create and share simple block-based games without any coding experience. It also enables its users to monetize their games with an in-game currency called Robux.Roblox's simple approach made it popular with tween users. As a result, its revenue jumped 82% in 2020 as more students stayed at home and spent more time on their computers throughout the pandemic.The bears expected Roblox's growth to decelerate in a post-lockdown market, but that slowdown hasn't happened yet. It generated triple-digit sales growth in the first nine months of 2021, and analysts expect its revenue to soar 196% for the full year.Roblox's daily active users (DAUs) rose 31% year-over-year to 47.3 million in the third quarter. A fifth of those users came from the Asia-Pacific region, which outpaced all of its other markets with 75% year-over-year growth. The company's growth cycle could last for a long time, since its creators constantly create new experiences to attract more players. It's also an attractive platform for companies to launch new metaverse experiences.However, its net losses continue to widen as it pays out high developer exchange fees (the cash payments for creators who trade in their Robux for real-world currencies) and big stock-based compensation expenses. Next year, analysts expect Roblox's revenue to rise 21% against some tough year-over-year comparisons as its net loss widens again.Roblox's stock isn't extremely expensive at 16 times next year's sales, but that price-to-sales ratio is still a bit frothy for a company with murky long-term growth prospects. It's still unclear if Roblox's tween users will stick around as they age, if it can lower Robux's exchange rate to boost its margins without alienating its creators, and if it will ever turn a profit. Those uncertainties make Roblox a tough stock to own as interest rates rise.But Apple offers more predictable returnsApple's revenue rose 33% in fiscal 2021, which ended last September. Its iPhone sales, which accounted for over half of its top line, jumped 39% after it rolled out its first family of 5G devices. Its diluted earnings per share, which benefited from nearly $86 billion in stock buybacks, soared 71%.Analysts expect Apple's revenue and earnings to grow just 4% and 2%, respectively, this year, as the 5G upgrade cycle cools off. The ongoing chip shortages and supply chain challenges will also throttle its growth.That slowdown is disappointing, but investors should recognize Apple's other strengths. A recent CIRP survey found that 90% of iPhone users plan to stick with Apple instead of switching to an Android device. It also ended fiscal 2021 with 745 million paid subscribers across all of its services, which grew nearly five times from five years ago and further increases the stickiness of its ecosystem.Apple's hardware sales should stabilize after it resolves its supply chain shortages, and its luxury appeal will enable it to easily pass on its higher costs to consumers -- which makes it an inflation-resistant investment. Rising interest rates also aren't a major issue for Apple, since it's firmly profitable and ended last year with $191 billion in cash and marketable securities.Apple will likely introduce new augmented reality, virtual reality, and electric vehicle products to significantly expand its ecosystem over the next few years. It could also make a lot of acquisitions to accelerate those ambitions, which would expand its reach far beyond its iPhone, iPad, and Mac products.Apple's stock looks historically expensive at 32 times forward earnings, and its paltry forward dividend yield of 0.5% won't attract any serious income investors. Nonetheless, Apple's resilience in a market rattled by higher inflation and interest rates might justify that slight premium.The winner for 2022: AppleRoblox is still a promising investment for long-term growth investors, but I doubt it will outperform Apple this year.Roblox still faces too many uncertainties to be considered a stable investment in a shaky market, and it should remain out of favor as long as interest rates keep climbing. I'm not sure if Apple will outperform the broader market this year, but it will likely generate stronger returns than Roblox as investors gravitate toward quality instead of speculative growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":256,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9006434996,"gmtCreate":1641815008106,"gmtModify":1676533650067,"author":{"id":"4101735018438310","authorId":"4101735018438310","name":"Kel0702","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101735018438310","authorIdStr":"4101735018438310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/PLTR\">$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$</a>Go easy on me baby - Adele","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/PLTR\">$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$</a>Go easy on me baby - Adele","text":"$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$Go easy on me baby - Adele","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9006434996","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":348,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9008898718,"gmtCreate":1641402945085,"gmtModify":1676533610991,"author":{"id":"4101735018438310","authorId":"4101735018438310","name":"Kel0702","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4101735018438310","authorIdStr":"4101735018438310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"New here… so be good to a newbie like me.
