Each is a consumer-oriented technology company that has reached a massive scale. Amazon boasts over 200 million Prime members, and Apple crossed the 1 billion active iPhone mark more than a year ago.</p><p>Popularity among consumers is an excellent trait for a company to have, but a good investment requires more than that. Let&#39;s pit the e-commerce retailer against the smartphone pioneer and determine which is a better buy for today&#39;s long-term investors.</p><h2>The case for Amazon</h2><p>Amazon may be best known for its e-commerce business, but it has other lucrative sources of revenue. In fact, its Amazon Web Services segment brought in all the company&#39;s operating income in its most recent quarter, which ended on March 31, despite being only 16% of sales. Amazon&#39;s subscription services, which include revenue from Prime memberships, generated $8.4 billion in revenue in the quarter, up by 13% from the same quarter last year. And Amazon has successfully built a robust advertising business that earned $7.9 billion in Q1, up by 25% year over year.</p><p>These varied sources of revenue are crucial, considering e-commerce sales are slowing after the pandemic-related surge. E-commerce sales are a low-margin business, as evidenced in the most recent quarter, when Amazon lost money in online sales. Shipping is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> big cost. Amazon offers Prime members -- who pay a yearly fee -- fast, free shipping and non-Prime members can get free shipping if they spend over $25 on an order.</p><p>These dynamics have worked to keep Amazon&#39;s overall operating profit margin grounded despite rapidly expanding sales. The metric has increased recently as the more profitable segments have taken a larger share of overall sales.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1931d66b3a9f9b854eacd59b236a203f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN Operating Margin (TTM) data by YCharts</p><h2>The case for Apple</h2><p>Apple is best known for the iPhone. In the six months ended March 26, Apple sold $122.2 billion worth of iPhones, 55% of total sales. Still, like Amazon, Apple has done a solid job building a services business. During the same six months, Apple&#39;s services sales totaled $39.3 billion, a 20% year-over-year jump bringing it to about 18% of the total. The iPhone revenue jump was only 7.6%.</p><p>Its services include the App Store, Apple Music, Apple TV+, and iCloud. Again, similar to Amazon, Apple&#39;s services segment generates higher profit margins. In the quarter ended in March, Apple&#39;s services gross margin was 72.6%, while its products gross margin was 36.4%.</p><p>Apple has proven over decades that it can create innovative products that consumers will spend on. More recently, it is proving it can add supplemental services that deliver high profit margins. Indeed, management boasted it had 825 million paid subscribers as of March 26, increasing 165 million over the previous year.</p><p>That has undoubtedly helped boost Apple&#39;s gross profit margin from 37.8% in 2019 to 41.8% in 2021.</p><h2>Apple wins this stock showdown</h2><p>Apple and Amazon are both excellent businesses that will likely make you wealthier if you buy and hold each for five years or more. However, if you had to pick only one, I&#39;d recommend should be Apple. The smartphone pioneer is trading at a substantial discount to Amazon when measured by the price-to-earnings ratio (24 versus 55). Meanwhile, it is crushing Amazon on operating profit margins.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/825ef99be3e876798b2e45598e282db6\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"497\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN PE Ratio data by YCharts</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>Better Buy: Apple vs. Amazon</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\">\nBetter Buy: Apple vs. Amazon\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-04 19:41 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/06/03/better-buy-apple-vs-amazon/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple  and Amazon  have been two chart-topping stocks for the past couple of years.

Let's pit the e-commerce retailer against the smartphone pioneer and determine which is a better buy for today's long-term investors.The case for AmazonAmazon may be best known for its e-commerce business, but it has other lucrative sources of revenue. In fact, its Amazon Web Services segment brought in all the company's operating income in its most recent quarter, which ended on March 31, despite being only 16% of sales. Amazon's subscription services, which include revenue from Prime memberships, generated $8.4 billion in revenue in the quarter, up by 13% from the same quarter last year. And Amazon has successfully built a robust advertising business that earned $7.9 billion in Q1, up by 25% year over year.These varied sources of revenue are crucial, considering e-commerce sales are slowing after the pandemic-related surge. E-commerce sales are a low-margin business, as evidenced in the most recent quarter, when Amazon lost money in online sales. Shipping is one big cost. Amazon offers Prime members -- who pay a yearly fee -- fast, free shipping and non-Prime members can get free shipping if they spend over $25 on an order.These dynamics have worked to keep Amazon's overall operating profit margin grounded despite rapidly expanding sales. The metric has increased recently as the more profitable segments have taken a larger share of overall sales.AMZN Operating Margin (TTM) data by YChartsThe case for AppleApple is best known for the iPhone. In the six months ended March 26, Apple sold $122.2 billion worth of iPhones, 55% of total sales. Still, like Amazon, Apple has done a solid job building a services business. During the same six months, Apple's services sales totaled $39.3 billion, a 20% year-over-year jump bringing it to about 18% of the total. The iPhone revenue jump was only 7.6%.Its services include the App Store, Apple Music, Apple TV+, and iCloud. Again, similar to Amazon, Apple's services segment generates higher profit margins. In the quarter ended in March, Apple's services gross margin was 72.6%, while its products gross margin was 36.4%.Apple has proven over decades that it can create innovative products that consumers will spend on. More recently, it is proving it can add supplemental services that deliver high profit margins. Indeed, management boasted it had 825 million paid subscribers as of March 26, increasing 165 million over the previous year.That has undoubtedly helped boost Apple's gross profit margin from 37.8% in 2019 to 41.8% in 2021.Apple wins this stock showdownApple and Amazon are both excellent businesses that will likely make you wealthier if you buy and hold each for five years or more. However, if you had to pick only one, I'd recommend should be Apple. The smartphone pioneer is trading at a substantial discount to Amazon when measured by the price-to-earnings ratio (24 versus 55). Meanwhile, it is crushing Amazon on operating profit margins.AMZN PE Ratio data by YCharts","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":422,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9059382220,"gmtCreate":1654303794960,"gmtModify":1676535427437,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why not both?

With either option, you should make sure that you know what you&#39;re getting into before making a decision.</p><h2>The case for Tesla</h2><p>Tesla stock has a few things working in its favor. For instance, it&#39;s an individual stock and that means it has different characteristics from market indexes.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0ae19821a1c7e530ce29e3d405bb7598\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>In a normal market, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> won&#39;t generally match the upside potential of a growth stock like Tesla. For instance, Tesla&#39;s first-quarter revenue jumped more than 80% year over year, with production and unit shipments rising nearly 70%. Sales for stocks in the S&amp;P 500 when averaged out don&#39;t grow at rates like that. At best, total revenue for market indexes might modestly outpace the economy in general.</p><p>This elevated growth translates to increased returns, which sparks outsized interest from investors. Since Tesla&#39;s IPO in 2010, the stock price is up nearly 16,000%. Meanwhile, the S&amp;P 500 is up about 380% over the same time frame. That&#39;s a great return for the index, but the two obviously aren&#39;t comparable. If you&#39;re looking to ride an investment to the moon, an individual stock is the way to go -- as long as it&#39;s the right individual stock.</p><p>There are other benefits that individual stocks can bring for first-time investors. In many ways, your first investment is a learning experience rather than a major financial decision. It&#39;s a bit easier to track an individual stock and become engaged as its story unfolds.</p><p>Investors can read the news whenever the stock moves substantially to figure out what&#39;s driving the price change. It&#39;s also helpful to read quarterly and annual reports. By thumbing through a 10-K, investors can get a sense for the accounting and financial analysis involved in stock picking. Listening to the analyst question portion of the quarterly earnings conference calls can be really informative too because it will illustrate the ways that Wall Street approaches investment analysis.</p><p>First-time investors can also keep track of relevant financial metrics related to valuation, growth, operating efficiency, and financial health. Most of those learning events aren&#39;t really applicable when applied to whole indexes.</p><p>Tesla also brings some unique educational value to new investors. The company is a case study in disruption, as it came in and displaced the incumbents of an established global industry. It&#39;s still well behind its rivals in terms of production volume, but it&#39;s by far the largest in terms of market cap.</p><p>The electric vehicle company can also teach investors about the behavior of growth stocks across market cycles.

These lessons are great building blocks that can be applied to investments moving forward.</p><h2>The case for the S&amp;P 500</h2><p>Index investing won&#39;t provide the same experience or upside potential, but an exchange-traded fund based on the S&amp;P 500 will be much more stable overall. The stocks in the S&amp;P 500 are more diversified, and it&#39;s not nearly as volatile as Tesla&#39;s stock. By investing in the whole market, you aren&#39;t making a simple bet on one company&#39;s performance.</p><p>All sorts of unexpected issues can pop up and threaten a business, from competition to regulation. Tesla might seem unstoppable right now, but investors thought the same about <b>Blackberry</b>, Yahoo!, Blockbuster, and countless other industry leaders that ended up not living up to expectations. Crazy things can happen.</p><p>Investors who can&#39;t handle some volatility should also avoid loading up on one stock. Tesla&#39;s beta is above 2, which means that the stock&#39;s movements up and down are double that of the S&amp;P 500. This is especially relevant in the midst of our current market downturn. If you&#39;re going to react negatively when your investment account values fall, it&#39;s going to be even worse with a single high-beta stock.</p><p>Investing in the whole S&amp;P 500 won&#39;t teach you as much about the developments of individual stocks, but it can be more informative about overall market dynamics. Index funds show how stocks react to macroeconomic news and capital market dynamics. In the short term, these factors are often just as important for stock performance as stock-specific news. It also sets more realistic expectations for your future investments. Most of your stocks won&#39;t behave like Tesla, so it might not be the most useful template.</p><h2>The verdict</h2><p>The better first investment really depends on your personal circumstances. Ultimately, you&#39;ll have to branch out past either Tesla or the S&amp;P 500 if you want to achieve the best possible returns, regardless of which you start with. Tesla offers more potential upside and a better case study for learning about equity analysis. The S&amp;P 500 is a more stable, &#34;safer&#34; bet that&#39;s less likely to leave a bad taste in your mouth.</p><p>Tesla will probably be more fun for most investors, but it can also be more stressful.

In this article, I will explain why Apple is doing so poorly after I wrote in 2021 that inflation would become a serious issue - especially with regard to the Federal Reserve&#39;s actions. However, while the current stock market isn&#39;t fun for long-only (long-term) investors, I&#39;m actually incredibly excited to see that Apple is doing so poorly. It provides us dividend growth investors with an opportunity to add at much better prices that will provide us with long-term opportunities to add substantial wealth to our portfolios. Apple is one of the stocks that need serious weakness to make sense for dividend growth investors.</p><p>In this article, I invite you to read my thoughts on macro, Apple, and my strategy in this market.</p><p>I will also explain why buying a very low yield makes sense for the &#34;average&#34; dividend investor.</p><p>So, let&#39;s get to it!</p><p><b>A Quick Look Back</b></p><p>Let&#39;s start with some transparency. I bought Apple in 2021 at an average price of $123.68. I haven&#39;t bought more shares since then for one big reason: I wasn&#39;t a fan of technology and &#34;growth&#34; stocks given the macro environment.</p><p>Last year, I wrote the following paragraph:</p><blockquote>When I say Apple&#39;s Achilles&#39; heel, I mean its sensitivity in times of rising inflation. I am not afraid of the competition potentially beating Apple long-term (i.e., Microsoft (MSFT)), and I am not afraid of recessions. While a recession will keep pressure on Apple for 1-2 years (on average), underperformance due to inflation is Apple&#39;s real enemy.</blockquote><p>Also, the following part applies here given what I&#39;m about to show you next:</p><blockquote>While highly speculative stocks get butchered, Apple is holding up very well as the company is what I consider to be the perfect mix of growth AND value. The company is not only expected to generate high growth in the future but also reward its investors already with massive buybacks and significant dividend hikes.</blockquote><p><b>Inflation &amp; Key Macro</b></p><p>Unfortunately, I was right as inflation did become a big issue. Consumer price inflation in the United States is now above 8%. The situation in key markets like Europe isn&#39;t much better as the reasons why inflation is high are similar in various economic &#34;hotspots.&#34;</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f60ef1a56fde1bce88cc43d9f09dd81e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"385\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>St. Louis Federal Reserve</span></p><p>It all started in 2020 when lockdowns hurt supply chains. Inventories were empty and demand imploded in various sectors/industries. Then, demand came back roaring, yet there was no way for supply to rebound just as quickly. It hurt global shipping, manufacturing input prices, commodity prices, and much more. These problems still aren&#39;t gone as China started to lock down its cities again. Right now, this is once again causing supply chain issues to worsen in US ports. Add to this that energy markets are seeing severe supply/demand imbalances as drillers aren&#39;t able or willing to increase production. Oil prices are above $100 despite Chinese lockdowns, economic growth fears, and an aggressive Federal Reserve.</p><p>Add to this the war in Ukraine and the (related) food crisis that is slowly weakening the consumer where it hurts most: in essential purchases.</p><p>Moreover, central banks blew up their balance sheets like there was no tomorrow in 2020. Between the start of 2020 and the end of 2021, major central banks (Fed, ECB, Bank of Japan, People&#39;s Bank of China) raised their combined assets from $21 trillion to more than $31 trillion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1c3ac383ba9a99dd86c06e7a1d1c4672\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"391\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Yardeni Research, Inc</span></p><p>In other words, a decreasing number of goods (and services) due to supply chain issues were chased by an ever-increasing amount of cash. It supported stock prices, home values, crypto, NFTs, and pretty much everything else that was perceived to have value.</p><p>Fast forward to 2022 and we&#39;re in a situation where things are different. Inflation is high, supply chains are still broken, economic growth is slowing, and the Federal Reserve is expected to hike aggressively - in this case, while economic growth is weakening.</p><p>As my friend and macro expert Nick Glinsman wrote last week, the Fed could be even more aggressive to tame inflation than some expect right now.</p><blockquote>When thinking about the Federal Reserve&#39;s job in getting inflation down, we often talk about real rates as measured by TIPS. However, instead we should be thinking about the gap between the Fed Funds rate and the consumer price index. <b><i>This measurement, what I would call the &#34;real&#34; real rate, shows just how far we are from having a positive reading. It may be the case the amount of tightening needed to tame inflation is much greater than many realize. In fact, if the Fed were to ignore this measure, it risks throwing the economy into a recession without actually getting inflation under control.</i></b></blockquote><blockquote>Real 10-year rates measured by TIPS are just barely positive right now, whereas there&#39;s a much larger gap between US CPI at 8.3% and the Fed Funds rate at 1%. If you look at the last inflationary period during the 1980s, it took years of the Fed Funds rate exceeding CPI for the Paul Volcker-led Fed to bring inflation down durably.</blockquote><p>What this means is that the Fed Funds futures&#39; terminal rate estimate of 3.25% in March 2023 may not be enough to tame inflation. The Fed said it will keep raising rates until inflation falls towards its 2% target. As it&#39;s doubtful that inflation will fall to 3.25% by March, more aggressive hikes might be needed.</p><p>After all, a big part of inflation is caused by issues the Fed cannot influence. The Fed cannot solve the war in Ukraine, it cannot increase oil production, it cannot add labor supply, and it cannot convince China to refrain from implementing new lockdowns.</p><p>As a result, investors are de-risking their portfolios. The S&amp;P 500 is down roughly 18.2% from its all-time high including dividends. The ARK Innovation <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a> (ARKK) is down 73% from its all-time high as investors have sold high-growth stocks. The tech-heavy QQQ ETF (QQQ) is down 28.4%.

I used this graph in a recent dividend growth-focused article as it shows that historically speaking companies with both growth and value have outperformed the (equal-weight) market by a mile.

Companies that paid a dividend without growth did also well, yet they underperformed growers by a mile.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0ce5f82c39538e470817e836cae2c445\" tg-width=\"1344\" tg-height=\"760\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Hartford Funds</span></p><p>Apple has consistently grown its dividend since 2012, when it initiated a dividend for the first time since 1995.

This translates to $0.92 per year, which is a 0.67% yield based on a $138 stock price. This means the chart I used last year is relevant again (the one below). Back then, the yield was 0.68% based on a $130 stock price. It happens every now and then that dividend investors get upset when I give them a company with a yield of 0.7%. 0.7% isn&#39;t a lot, that&#39;s right. $10,000 invested in Apple will result in $70 annual dividends. That won&#39;t get you very far - and $10,000 is a lot of money to a lot of people.</p><p>Last year, the company hiked its dividend by 7.3%. In 2020, the company hiked by 6.5%. In 2019, the company hiked by 5.5%. Over the past 5 years, the average annual hike is 8.8%.</p><p>For the sake of simplicity, let&#39;s assume the company maintains long-term dividend growth of 10% (above its current average). That would result in a yield on cost of 4.2% in 2040. That&#39;s roughly 18 years from now.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7aa214bb0832816d9543aee8bfc0347d\" tg-width=\"1054\" tg-height=\"385\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author</span></p><p>4.2% on cost ends up being $420 in dividends (based on the $10,000 example - without adding shares). I doubt that will get us very far in 2040.</p><p>So, why am I still so happy to discuss this dividend growth opportunity?</p><p>The key is that Apple will not become a high-yield stock anytime soon. Growth is high and Apple generates a LOT of free cash flow.</p><p>When Apple announced the aforementioned 4.5% dividend hike on April 28, it also announced a $90 billion increase to its existing buyback program.</p><p>This is what the company commented on its 2Q22 earnings call:</p><blockquote>Given the continued confidence we have in our business now and into the future, today our Board has authorized an additional $90 billion for share repurchases, as we maintain our goal of getting to net cash neutral, overtime. We&#39;re also raising our dividend by 5% to $0.23 a share and we continue to plan for annual increases in the dividend going forward.</blockquote><p>In that quarter, Apple bought back $22.9 billion worth of stock while returning $3.6 billion in dividends. In other words, the company&#39;s priority is obvious. It will distribute cash in the most tax-efficient way, which also benefits its bottom line. A lower number of shares outstanding equals higher earnings per share.</p><p>The graph below shows annual repurchases and dividends. Repurchases have exceeded $69 billion every single year since 2018.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7546779c8ff134551c0053e3cd707c06\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TIKR.com</span></p><p>These buybacks allowed the company to reduce shares outstanding from 20.9 billion in 2017 to 16.7 billion at the end of 2021. That&#39;s a decline of 20% or roughly 4.4% per year.</p><p>While the company is not expected to be able to maintain its (EBITDA) margins in the years ahead, top-line growth is expected to provide a basis for $112 billion in FY2023 free cash flow and close to $120 billion in FY2024 free cash flow.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c344727f5093f16a14b3a102f280630d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TIKR.com</span></p><p>Using $112 billion in expected FCF as an example translates to an implied FCF yield of 5.0% of the company&#39;s $2.23 trillion market cap. In other words, the company could pay a dividend of 5.0% in FY2023 or buy back 5.0% of shares outstanding without using external funding or existing cash reserves.</p><p>With that said, there&#39;s a lot more cash to distribute. Apple&#39;s target to become net-cash neutral means it will have to distribute not only all of its free cash flow but also its net cash balance. Net cash occurs when a company has more cash than gross debt. It&#39;s negative net debt. Most companies have positive net debt. Apple has more cash than gross debt. At the end of FY2021, the company had $66 billion in net cash. Analysts expect that number to rise to more than $120 billion in the years ahead if the company doesn&#39;t buy back shares rather aggressively.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52935bab6d5db9f25a22d41fe7dacab3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TIKR.com</span></p><p>It also opens the door to major M&amp;A, which is why people have speculated that Apple may buy a company like Peloton (PTON), which is currently getting crushed on the stock market. However, while Apple isn&#39;t denying looking for bigger opportunities, it seems to work on its own products based on smaller acquisitions, which I believe is the way to go in that space.</p><p>According to Tim Cook:</p><blockquote>We acquire a lot of smaller companies today and we&#39;ll continue to do that for IP and for great talent. And -- but we don&#39;t discount doing something larger either if the opportunity presents itself.</blockquote><p>Now, onto the valuation.</p><p><b>Valuation &amp; Timing</b></p><p>Apple is down 22.5% year to date, which pushed its market cap to $2.23 trillion. When subtracting $93.2 billion in expected FY2023 net cash, we get an enterprise value of $2.14 trillion.</p><p>This is 15.8x next year&#39;s expected EBITDA of $135 billion. 15.8x is still above the company&#39;s pre-pandemic valuation, but well below prices investors were willing to pay in 2021 and most of 2020.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5514bb0b8494b8df2e8ce9f34bf019f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>The stock price is now back to where it was in early 2021 after investors pushed the stock to more than $180 at the end of 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6c5dabeac5b865aeffbd8e91d5b162ad\" tg-width=\"992\" tg-height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>FINVIZ</span></p><p>It&#39;s hard to predict where the stock will bottom. If ongoing issues are persistent, we could see $120, which is where the stock found a lot of support in the first half of 2021. Below that, I could see $110.</p><p>My strategy is to buy as close to my initial entry as possible ($123.69), if it falls below $120, I will buy more aggressively.</p><p>If you&#39;re new to Apple and looking to initiate a position, I think it&#39;s best to break up an initial investment. For example, buy 25% now and add gradually over time. That way investors get to average down if the stock continues its decline while it gives them a foot in the door if the stock suddenly bottoms and takes off.</p><p><b>Takeaway</b></p><p>Apple has gone nowhere since last year as inflation and related factors have made it impossible for growth stocks to continue their post-pandemic uptrend. However, Apple offers a great mix of both growth and value, which is why the damage to its stock price is somewhat limited compared to pure-growth plays. Apple is my favorite tech/consumer stock for a reason, which is its ability to generate a load of cash on top of its already stunning net cash position.</p><p>The company is dedicated to distributing its existing cash position and most of its free cash flow via buybacks on top of steadily growing dividends. While the dividend yield is low, I still recommend AAPL to dividend growth investors. As long as investors are not dependent on income from their investment, I have little doubt that investors will enjoy long-term outperforming capital gains thanks to aggressive buybacks and a business model relying on its successful tech products and services.</p><p>With that said, the ongoing market environment is tricky. As I explained in this article, the Fed is trying to get inflation down to 2%, which is a tough task due to factors the bank cannot directly influence. As a result, the Fed may have to be more aggressive than anticipated, which could hurt the economy more than expected at a time when consumers are already in a tough spot.</p><p>Nonetheless, in order to make Apple a successful long-term investment, we need stock price weakness. The valuation has gotten a lot better and if the stock continues to drop, I will add more aggressively.</p><p>Again, the stock market environment isn&#39;t fun, but buying Apple at better valuations is absolutely worth it as it gives us a high chance of long-term outperformance and wealth creation.</p><p>(Dis)agree?

That stock is Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL). It's one of my favorite investments despite its somewhat subdued exposure in my portfolio and the fact that I rarely cover the stock. I have 3.7% of my portfolio in Apple, which is below my portfolio average of 4.3%.Author PortfolioThe reason why I haven't covered the stock since May 9, 2021, is the same reason why the stock is still way too small in my portfolio: macro developments. In this article, I will explain why Apple is doing so poorly after I wrote in 2021 that inflation would become a serious issue - especially with regard to the Federal Reserve's actions. However, while the current stock market isn't fun for long-only (long-term) investors, I'm actually incredibly excited to see that Apple is doing so poorly. It provides us dividend growth investors with an opportunity to add at much better prices that will provide us with long-term opportunities to add substantial wealth to our portfolios. Apple is one of the stocks that need serious weakness to make sense for dividend growth investors.In this article, I invite you to read my thoughts on macro, Apple, and my strategy in this market.I will also explain why buying a very low yield makes sense for the \"average\" dividend investor.So, let's get to it!A Quick Look BackLet's start with some transparency. I bought Apple in 2021 at an average price of $123.68. I haven't bought more shares since then for one big reason: I wasn't a fan of technology and \"growth\" stocks given the macro environment.Last year, I wrote the following paragraph:When I say Apple's Achilles' heel, I mean its sensitivity in times of rising inflation. I am not afraid of the competition potentially beating Apple long-term (i.e., Microsoft (MSFT)), and I am not afraid of recessions. While a recession will keep pressure on Apple for 1-2 years (on average), underperformance due to inflation is Apple's real enemy.Also, the following part applies here given what I'm about to show you next:While highly speculative stocks get butchered, Apple is holding up very well as the company is what I consider to be the perfect mix of growth AND value. The company is not only expected to generate high growth in the future but also reward its investors already with massive buybacks and significant dividend hikes.Inflation & Key MacroUnfortunately, I was right as inflation did become a big issue. Consumer price inflation in the United States is now above 8%. The situation in key markets like Europe isn't much better as the reasons why inflation is high are similar in various economic \"hotspots.\"St. Louis Federal ReserveIt all started in 2020 when lockdowns hurt supply chains. Inventories were empty and demand imploded in various sectors/industries. Then, demand came back roaring, yet there was no way for supply to rebound just as quickly. It hurt global shipping, manufacturing input prices, commodity prices, and much more. These problems still aren't gone as China started to lock down its cities again. Right now, this is once again causing supply chain issues to worsen in US ports. Add to this that energy markets are seeing severe supply/demand imbalances as drillers aren't able or willing to increase production. Oil prices are above $100 despite Chinese lockdowns, economic growth fears, and an aggressive Federal Reserve.Add to this the war in Ukraine and the (related) food crisis that is slowly weakening the consumer where it hurts most: in essential purchases.Moreover, central banks blew up their balance sheets like there was no tomorrow in 2020. Between the start of 2020 and the end of 2021, major central banks (Fed, ECB, Bank of Japan, People's Bank of China) raised their combined assets from $21 trillion to more than $31 trillion.Yardeni Research, IncIn other words, a decreasing number of goods (and services) due to supply chain issues were chased by an ever-increasing amount of cash. It supported stock prices, home values, crypto, NFTs, and pretty much everything else that was perceived to have value.Fast forward to 2022 and we're in a situation where things are different. Inflation is high, supply chains are still broken, economic growth is slowing, and the Federal Reserve is expected to hike aggressively - in this case, while economic growth is weakening.As my friend and macro expert Nick Glinsman wrote last week, the Fed could be even more aggressive to tame inflation than some expect right now.When thinking about the Federal Reserve's job in getting inflation down, we often talk about real rates as measured by TIPS. However, instead we should be thinking about the gap between the Fed Funds rate and the consumer price index. This measurement, what I would call the \"real\" real rate, shows just how far we are from having a positive reading. It may be the case the amount of tightening needed to tame inflation is much greater than many realize. In fact, if the Fed were to ignore this measure, it risks throwing the economy into a recession without actually getting inflation under control.Real 10-year rates measured by TIPS are just barely positive right now, whereas there's a much larger gap between US CPI at 8.3% and the Fed Funds rate at 1%. If you look at the last inflationary period during the 1980s, it took years of the Fed Funds rate exceeding CPI for the Paul Volcker-led Fed to bring inflation down durably.What this means is that the Fed Funds futures' terminal rate estimate of 3.25% in March 2023 may not be enough to tame inflation. The Fed said it will keep raising rates until inflation falls towards its 2% target. As it's doubtful that inflation will fall to 3.25% by March, more aggressive hikes might be needed.After all, a big part of inflation is caused by issues the Fed cannot influence. The Fed cannot solve the war in Ukraine, it cannot increase oil production, it cannot add labor supply, and it cannot convince China to refrain from implementing new lockdowns.As a result, investors are de-risking their portfolios. The S&P 500 is down roughly 18.2% from its all-time high including dividends. The ARK Innovation Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF (ARKK) is down 73% from its all-time high as investors have sold high-growth stocks. The tech-heavy QQQ ETF (QQQ) is down 28.4%. Apple has lost roughly a quarter of its value.Data by YChartsIn other words, not only has Apple been one of the best performers since the pandemic, but it's also doing rather well during the ongoing pandemic - compared to stocks that also shined prior to the sell-off. However, the company is not the world's most valuable company anymore, as it has been overtaken by oil giant Saudi Aramco as reported by the Wall Street Journal.Wall Street JournalWith that said, I could not care less. If anything, I'm very happy that Apple is down because I expected that inflation would hurt growth stocks.On top of that, long-term investors should cheer on these buying opportunities as Apple is far more than a \"growth\" stock. As I wrote in 2021 and in this article, Apple is the perfect mix between growth and value. It helped the stock outperform the market in the past and it protects investors in times when pure-growth plays are getting butchered.Over the past 10 years, Apple is still up more than 700% including dividends. That's more than twice the return of the S&P 500.Data by YChartsWith that said, market turmoil is opening up new opportunities that I want to use given my rather low Apple exposure.Apple's Growth & ValueNot only did I rename my Twitter account to Growth & Value, but the growth and value approach is also the cornerstone of my dividend growth portfolio, which is roughly 95% of my entire net worth.As the current market environment shows so well, the stocks that deliver both growth and value are the best performers. In this case, I consider \"value\" to be a company's ability to generate free cash flow used to maintain a healthy balance sheet and pay a growing dividend and the option to buy back shares. The \"growth\" aspect is straightforward as I dislike companies that are only able to pay a high yield without being able to grow, i.e., sales, EBITDA, and whatnot.The graph below is important for what I'm about to say next. I used this graph in a recent dividend growth-focused article as it shows that historically speaking companies with both growth and value have outperformed the (equal-weight) market by a mile. Dividend growers are not just providing a stream of cash for shareholders, but the fact that they are able to pay a growing dividend shows that their businesses are in a good place. Companies that paid a dividend without growth did also well, yet they underperformed growers by a mile.Hartford FundsApple has consistently grown its dividend since 2012, when it initiated a dividend for the first time since 1995.

This translates to $0.92 per year, which is a 0.67% yield based on a $138 stock price. This means the chart I used last year is relevant again (the one below). Back then, the yield was 0.68% based on a $130 stock price. It happens every now and then that dividend investors get upset when I give them a company with a yield of 0.7%. 0.7% isn't a lot, that's right. $10,000 invested in Apple will result in $70 annual dividends. That won't get you very far - and $10,000 is a lot of money to a lot of people.Last year, the company hiked its dividend by 7.3%. In 2020, the company hiked by 6.5%. In 2019, the company hiked by 5.5%. Over the past 5 years, the average annual hike is 8.8%.For the sake of simplicity, let's assume the company maintains long-term dividend growth of 10% (above its current average). That would result in a yield on cost of 4.2% in 2040. That's roughly 18 years from now.Author4.2% on cost ends up being $420 in dividends (based on the $10,000 example - without adding shares). I doubt that will get us very far in 2040.So, why am I still so happy to discuss this dividend growth opportunity?The key is that Apple will not become a high-yield stock anytime soon. Growth is high and Apple generates a LOT of free cash flow.When Apple announced the aforementioned 4.5% dividend hike on April 28, it also announced a $90 billion increase to its existing buyback program.This is what the company commented on its 2Q22 earnings call:Given the continued confidence we have in our business now and into the future, today our Board has authorized an additional $90 billion for share repurchases, as we maintain our goal of getting to net cash neutral, overtime. We're also raising our dividend by 5% to $0.23 a share and we continue to plan for annual increases in the dividend going forward.In that quarter, Apple bought back $22.9 billion worth of stock while returning $3.6 billion in dividends. In other words, the company's priority is obvious. It will distribute cash in the most tax-efficient way, which also benefits its bottom line. A lower number of shares outstanding equals higher earnings per share.The graph below shows annual repurchases and dividends. Repurchases have exceeded $69 billion every single year since 2018.TIKR.comThese buybacks allowed the company to reduce shares outstanding from 20.9 billion in 2017 to 16.7 billion at the end of 2021. That's a decline of 20% or roughly 4.4% per year.While the company is not expected to be able to maintain its (EBITDA) margins in the years ahead, top-line growth is expected to provide a basis for $112 billion in FY2023 free cash flow and close to $120 billion in FY2024 free cash flow.TIKR.comUsing $112 billion in expected FCF as an example translates to an implied FCF yield of 5.0% of the company's $2.23 trillion market cap. In other words, the company could pay a dividend of 5.0% in FY2023 or buy back 5.0% of shares outstanding without using external funding or existing cash reserves.With that said, there's a lot more cash to distribute. Apple's target to become net-cash neutral means it will have to distribute not only all of its free cash flow but also its net cash balance. Net cash occurs when a company has more cash than gross debt. It's negative net debt. Most companies have positive net debt. Apple has more cash than gross debt. At the end of FY2021, the company had $66 billion in net cash. Analysts expect that number to rise to more than $120 billion in the years ahead if the company doesn't buy back shares rather aggressively.TIKR.comIt also opens the door to major M&A, which is why people have speculated that Apple may buy a company like Peloton (PTON), which is currently getting crushed on the stock market. However, while Apple isn't denying looking for bigger opportunities, it seems to work on its own products based on smaller acquisitions, which I believe is the way to go in that space.According to Tim Cook:We acquire a lot of smaller companies today and we'll continue to do that for IP and for great talent. And -- but we don't discount doing something larger either if the opportunity presents itself.Now, onto the valuation.Valuation & TimingApple is down 22.5% year to date, which pushed its market cap to $2.23 trillion. When subtracting $93.2 billion in expected FY2023 net cash, we get an enterprise value of $2.14 trillion.This is 15.8x next year's expected EBITDA of $135 billion. 15.8x is still above the company's pre-pandemic valuation, but well below prices investors were willing to pay in 2021 and most of 2020.Data by YChartsThe stock price is now back to where it was in early 2021 after investors pushed the stock to more than $180 at the end of 2021.FINVIZIt's hard to predict where the stock will bottom. If ongoing issues are persistent, we could see $120, which is where the stock found a lot of support in the first half of 2021. Below that, I could see $110.My strategy is to buy as close to my initial entry as possible ($123.69), if it falls below $120, I will buy more aggressively.If you're new to Apple and looking to initiate a position, I think it's best to break up an initial investment. For example, buy 25% now and add gradually over time. That way investors get to average down if the stock continues its decline while it gives them a foot in the door if the stock suddenly bottoms and takes off.TakeawayApple has gone nowhere since last year as inflation and related factors have made it impossible for growth stocks to continue their post-pandemic uptrend. However, Apple offers a great mix of both growth and value, which is why the damage to its stock price is somewhat limited compared to pure-growth plays. Apple is my favorite tech/consumer stock for a reason, which is its ability to generate a load of cash on top of its already stunning net cash position.The company is dedicated to distributing its existing cash position and most of its free cash flow via buybacks on top of steadily growing dividends. While the dividend yield is low, I still recommend AAPL to dividend growth investors. As long as investors are not dependent on income from their investment, I have little doubt that investors will enjoy long-term outperforming capital gains thanks to aggressive buybacks and a business model relying on its successful tech products and services.With that said, the ongoing market environment is tricky. As I explained in this article, the Fed is trying to get inflation down to 2%, which is a tough task due to factors the bank cannot directly influence. As a result, the Fed may have to be more aggressive than anticipated, which could hurt the economy more than expected at a time when consumers are already in a tough spot.Nonetheless, in order to make Apple a successful long-term investment, we need stock price weakness. The valuation has gotten a lot better and if the stock continues to drop, I will add more aggressively.Again, the stock market environment isn't fun, but buying Apple at better valuations is absolutely worth it as it gives us a high chance of long-term outperformance and wealth creation.(Dis)agree?

Expectations were muted, going into the data release, given the extended shutdown of the Giga Shangai during the month to fall in line with the COVID-19 restrictions in place.</p><p>What Happened: Tesla&#39;s Giga Shanghai produced 10,757 vehicles in April and sold 1,512 vehicles domestically, Reuters reported, citing data from the China Passenger Car Association.</p><p>The company did not export any vehicles during the month, going against the norms of focusing on exports in the first half of the quarter.</p><p>In March, Tesla delivered 65,814 Giga-Shanghai-made cars, out of which 60 units were exported and the remaining 65,754 vehicles were sold in China. The strong numbers came despite a 2-day disruption in the middle of the month and another toward the end of the month.</p><p>The year-over-year comparison also shows a decline from the 40,019 units sold in April 2021, comprising domestic sales of 25,845 units and exports of 14,174 units.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s dismal showing in April is in contrast to the fairly strong performance of the industry. CPCA data showed that retail sales of new energy vehicles, a term used for denoting both battery EVs and plug-in hybrids, increased 78.4% year-over-year in China in April. EV sales climbed 63.3%.</p><p>Why It&#39;s Important: Tesla&#39;s production was disrupted for about three weeks in April due to the COVID-19 lockdowns that forced shuttering of its Giga Shanghai plant.

Expectations were muted, going into the data release, given the extended shutdown of the Giga Shangai during the month to fall in line with the COVID-19 restrictions in place.What Happened: Tesla's Giga Shanghai produced 10,757 vehicles in April and sold 1,512 vehicles domestically, Reuters reported, citing data from the China Passenger Car Association.The company did not export any vehicles during the month, going against the norms of focusing on exports in the first half of the quarter.In March, Tesla delivered 65,814 Giga-Shanghai-made cars, out of which 60 units were exported and the remaining 65,754 vehicles were sold in China. The strong numbers came despite a 2-day disruption in the middle of the month and another toward the end of the month.The year-over-year comparison also shows a decline from the 40,019 units sold in April 2021, comprising domestic sales of 25,845 units and exports of 14,174 units.Tesla's dismal showing in April is in contrast to the fairly strong performance of the industry. CPCA data showed that retail sales of new energy vehicles, a term used for denoting both battery EVs and plug-in hybrids, increased 78.4% year-over-year in China in April. EV sales climbed 63.3%.Why It's Important: Tesla's production was disrupted for about three weeks in April due to the COVID-19 lockdowns that forced shuttering of its Giga Shanghai plant. EV makers also faced component shortages amid the intensification of geopolitical tensions.But this did not deter Warren Buffett-backed BYD Company Limited BYDDF from reporting a strong April performance. The company produced and sold 57,593 and 57,403 EVs, respectively in April.Other EV startups such as Nio, Inc. NIO, XPeng, Inc. XPEV and Li Auto, Inc.

Not only was its stock crushed, but it also announced layoffs at its Tudum division, which it just launched in December. It also said it would crackdown on password sharing and put ads in a new, lower-priced subscription tier. All this is generating talk of the streaming service becoming a takeover target.</p><p>It was a sea change in how people view Netflix&#39;s position in the streaming market, but with <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBD\">Warner Bros. Discovery</a></b> pulling the plug on its ill-advised CNN+ service less than a month after it launched, <b>Alphabet</b>&#39;s YouTube seeing a slowdown in ad revenue, and surveys showing fewer consumers subscribing to at least <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> service, it may be time investors in <b>Amazon.com</b> (AMZN 0.18%) and <b>Disney</b> (DIS 1.68%) consider whether they need to be worried, too.</p><p>Streaming fatigue may have finally arrived, and we may see consolidation occur.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/156ba70e6477b3d2fd934034bbeda3e5\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>An industry wake-up call</h2><p>Although the company&#39;s revenue rose 10% in the first quarter to nearly $8 billion, that was about half the growth rate of 2021. In addition, profits dropped to $1.6 billion from $1.71 billion in the year-ago quarter.</p><p>Netflix&#39;s most jarring number was its loss of 200,000 subscribers for the quarter, the first decline since 2011. This was especially dismal because Netflix had forecast it would have between 2.5 million and 4 million net additions, so investors were blindsided by the drop to 221.64 million worldwide subscribers. It didn&#39;t help, either, that Netflix expects the carnage to continue in the second quarter, with a potential loss of as many as 2 million subscribers.</p><p>Netflix is still seeing growth in viewing time, according to <b>Nieslen</b> data, as the chart below shows. But with inflation soaring to levels not seen in 40 years, maintaining a subscription is no longer a priority for consumers.</p><table><thead><tr><th><p><b>Streaming Service</b></p></th><th><p><b>May 2021</b></p></th><th><p><b>February 2022</b></p></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p>Netflix</p></td><td><p>6%</p></td><td><p>6.4%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>YouTube</p></td><td><p>6%</p></td><td><p>5.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Hulu</p></td><td><p>3%</p></td><td><p>3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Amazon Prime</p></td><td><p>2%</p></td><td><p>2.3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Disney</p></td><td><p>1%</p></td><td><p>1.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Other SVOD</p></td><td><p>8%</p></td><td><p>9.5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Total SVOD</p></td><td><p>26%</p></td><td><p>28.6%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Data source: Nielsen, as provided by Netflix. Table by author.</p><h2>The good, the bad, and the ugly</h2><p>That was the big hurdle that CNN+ had to get over. People weren&#39;t watching the free version of CNN (prime-time viewership collapsed 70% in the key 25- to 54-year-old demographic in February), so it&#39;s hard to imagine people paying for CNN+. And with just 10,000 subscribers at the launch, Warner Bros. was merciful in killing it off quickly.</p><p>But what about Amazon and Disney? Fortunately, it seems they have more to offer viewers than Netflix.</p><p>No one is paying Amazon $139 a year primarily for its Prime movies.

Not only was its stock crushed, but it also announced layoffs at its Tudum division, which it just launched in December. It also said it would crackdown on password sharing and put ads in a new, lower-priced subscription tier. All this is generating talk of the streaming service becoming a takeover target.It was a sea change in how people view Netflix's position in the streaming market, but with Warner Bros. Discovery pulling the plug on its ill-advised CNN+ service less than a month after it launched, Alphabet's YouTube seeing a slowdown in ad revenue, and surveys showing fewer consumers subscribing to at least one service, it may be time investors in Amazon.com (AMZN 0.18%) and Disney (DIS 1.68%) consider whether they need to be worried, too.Streaming fatigue may have finally arrived, and we may see consolidation occur.Image source: Getty Images.An industry wake-up callAlthough the company's revenue rose 10% in the first quarter to nearly $8 billion, that was about half the growth rate of 2021. In addition, profits dropped to $1.6 billion from $1.71 billion in the year-ago quarter.Netflix's most jarring number was its loss of 200,000 subscribers for the quarter, the first decline since 2011. This was especially dismal because Netflix had forecast it would have between 2.5 million and 4 million net additions, so investors were blindsided by the drop to 221.64 million worldwide subscribers. It didn't help, either, that Netflix expects the carnage to continue in the second quarter, with a potential loss of as many as 2 million subscribers.Netflix is still seeing growth in viewing time, according to Nieslen data, as the chart below shows. But with inflation soaring to levels not seen in 40 years, maintaining a subscription is no longer a priority for consumers.Streaming ServiceMay 2021February 2022Netflix6%6.4%YouTube6%5.7%Hulu3%3%Amazon Prime2%2.3%Disney1%1.7%Other SVOD8%9.5%Total SVOD26%28.6%Data source: Nielsen, as provided by Netflix. Table by author.The good, the bad, and the uglyThat was the big hurdle that CNN+ had to get over. People weren't watching the free version of CNN (prime-time viewership collapsed 70% in the key 25- to 54-year-old demographic in February), so it's hard to imagine people paying for CNN+. And with just 10,000 subscribers at the launch, Warner Bros. was merciful in killing it off quickly.But what about Amazon and Disney? Fortunately, it seems they have more to offer viewers than Netflix.No one is paying Amazon $139 a year primarily for its Prime movies. They're signing up for free shipping on its e-commerce site and getting movies, music, books, and a few other services thrown into the mix. Its movie catalog is no less (or more) watchable than Netflix's, but it's just a side benefit of the shopping app and not the main motivator for signing up.Disney, on the other hand, brings several benefits to the table. Not only are you buying into the brand, but it comes with an extensive catalog of top-notch classic and current movies and a very affordable price tag ($8 a month).But it has yet to consistently offer good current original-streaming programming and is also planning on introducing ads into the mix, suggesting its aggressive growth goals may not be as attainable as originally believed.

I&#39;ll explain the reasons for AAPL&#39;s defensive characteristics in this report.</p><p><b>AAPL Stock Key Metrics</b></p><p>AAPL&#39;s latest quarter showed resilience in spite of supply chain issues. That is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> important characteristic of the company: it generates consistent revenues and net income.</p><p>AAPL saw total revenues grow by 8.6%, powered by 17.2% growth in services. Gross margin improved from 52.4% to 55%, largely due to both an increasing services revenue base as well as expanding gross margins in its services revenues.</p><p>Operating income grew a bit faster at 9.1% as the company realized some operating leverage, though net income grew slower at only 5.9% because the income tax rate increased from 15.7% to 16.9%. Earnings per share however grew by 8.6% due to aggressive share repurchases.</p><p>In total, the company returned just under $27 billion to shareholders through $3.6 billion in dividends and $22.9 billion in share repurchases.</p><p>The company ended the quarter with $193 billion in cash and marketable securities versus $120 billion in debt, for a net cash position of $73 billion. On the conference call, management reiterated its intentions to reach a leverage-neutral position.</p><p>AAPL authorized another $90 billion for share repurchases - based on trends of the last few years, I expect 2022 to see that program used up in its entirety.</p><p>The company also raised its dividend by 5% to $0.23 a share.</p><p><b>Is Apple A Defensive Stock?</b></p><p>That was a lot to unpack, let me highlight the key points with regards to how they impact the stock&#39;s defensive characteristics. In the current market, investors are rewarding AAPL for both the consistency as well as the existence of positive net income. Investors are also favoring the mature capital allocation strategy of paying out dividends and buying back shares. The company&#39;s willing use of leverage is another positive as that would help increase shareholder returns. Valuation isn&#39;t under the company&#39;s control, but it appears to be doing everything it could besides that.</p><p>Wall Street analysts have in general supported the company&#39;s strategy, with an average rating of 4.37 out of 5, a &#34;buy&#34;.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5248d0c25be99058843f56cf10ad1c2\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"329\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>That sentiment is especially surprising considering that the average price target of $190 per share represents only 20% potential upside.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ee957cd2639ab2b8e31b2fcb10ca5e6\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"423\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>It is clear that AAPL, despite being a richly priced tech company, is being valued more like a consumer staples stock on a growth-adjusted basis.</p><p><b>Is Apple A Good Stock To Invest In Long-Term?</b></p><p>AAPL is trading at just under 27x forward earnings, which looks like an aggressive multiple considering that consensus estimates call for single digit growth over the next decade:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f90bb4a3ca40f6acc82eaf92df41d98\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"456\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>As just stated, that kind of multiple makes AAPL look more like a McCormick (MKC) or Hormel (HRL) as these stocks tend to trade around 30x earnings with modest growth. Assuming a 4% earnings yield, around 8% annual growth, and stable multiples, investors may expect around 12% annual returns for the stock. If the stock can continue to show the same defensive characteristics that it has shown in recent years, then that kind of return profile may appear attractive for those looking for a lower risk name with market-beating potential.</p><p><b>Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?</b></p><p>My personal view is unfortunately less bullish. While AAPL has generated stellar returns with defensive characteristics in the past, there is no guarantee of that continuing in the future. I note that AAPL curiously spends far lower on R&amp;D than mega-cap peers. For reference, AAPL spent $21.9 billion or 14.3% of gross profits on R&amp;D in 2021, versus $26 billion or 28.9% at Alphabet (GOOGL) and $24.7 billion or 25.9% at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a> (FB). I frequently see AAPL investors touting the potential for upside surprise from innovation, but that optimism looks misplaced when compared against the likes of GOOGL and FB. When combined with the fact that the company continues to aggressively repurchase stock even at these premium valuations, one would be better off making the argument that this is a company more focused on generating present-day profits than maximizing growth over the long term. The stock could nonetheless still beat the market, even as growth is expected to slow gradually over the next decade. It wouldn&#39;t be unheard of for the stock to sustain a premium multiple even as growth slows to the low single-digits - as referenced above, many consumer staple stocks trade at those kinds of valuations. Yet at the same time, my view is that it is more likely for the stock to experience some multiple compression as growth slows - especially considering that its product revenues are still rather cyclical in nature. Perhaps if the company can show greater exposure to services revenues then it would be more insulated from that kind of risk, but services gross profits still make up only 31% of gross profits (as of 2021). By the time services gross profits make up a large enough percentage of the overall business, services growth would have likely already slowed down as well. Based on consensus estimates, the stock trades at 13x 2031 earnings. I could see the stock trading at 15x earnings by then - that would represent a 2.5x price to earnings growth ratio (&#39;PEG ratio&#39;) which would still be quite rich. That would place return potential from capital appreciation at only 15.4% in total or 1.44% annualized over the next 10 years. Throw in the 0.58% dividend yield and investors might get 2% annualized returns. Sure, some may argue that 15x 2031 earnings is too pessimistic, but with a 6% projected growth rate by then, many could also argue that it is even too optimistic. Clearly, forward returns are highly reliant on the stock sustaining an elevated PEG ratio - this is the kind of investment strategy that feels inherently unsustainable. Luckily, it isn&#39;t so hard to avoid buying AAPL here because there are so many more compelling alternatives available. While one could find deep value amongst high-growth tech, even established names like FB and GOOGL are both trading at far lower multiples in spite of stronger forward growth rates. I rate AAPL a hold because of both the high potential of poor forward returns as well as the better alternatives available in tech today.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Is Apple A Good Defensive Stock?

Since then, AAPL has matched the return of the S&P 500, declining just under 10%.Data by YChartsDuring that same time period, high-growth tech stocks across the board have continued to struggle, many declining even more than 30%. The struggling stock prices have often been mostly attributable to multiple compression, which may make AAPL's outperformance even more surprising considering that it trades at a premium valuation itself.Data by YChartsWhat's going on here? I'll explain the reasons for AAPL's defensive characteristics in this report.AAPL Stock Key MetricsAAPL's latest quarter showed resilience in spite of supply chain issues. That is one important characteristic of the company: it generates consistent revenues and net income.AAPL saw total revenues grow by 8.6%, powered by 17.2% growth in services. Gross margin improved from 52.4% to 55%, largely due to both an increasing services revenue base as well as expanding gross margins in its services revenues.Operating income grew a bit faster at 9.1% as the company realized some operating leverage, though net income grew slower at only 5.9% because the income tax rate increased from 15.7% to 16.9%. Earnings per share however grew by 8.6% due to aggressive share repurchases.In total, the company returned just under $27 billion to shareholders through $3.6 billion in dividends and $22.9 billion in share repurchases.The company ended the quarter with $193 billion in cash and marketable securities versus $120 billion in debt, for a net cash position of $73 billion. On the conference call, management reiterated its intentions to reach a leverage-neutral position.AAPL authorized another $90 billion for share repurchases - based on trends of the last few years, I expect 2022 to see that program used up in its entirety.The company also raised its dividend by 5% to $0.23 a share.Is Apple A Defensive Stock?That was a lot to unpack, let me highlight the key points with regards to how they impact the stock's defensive characteristics. In the current market, investors are rewarding AAPL for both the consistency as well as the existence of positive net income. Investors are also favoring the mature capital allocation strategy of paying out dividends and buying back shares. The company's willing use of leverage is another positive as that would help increase shareholder returns. Valuation isn't under the company's control, but it appears to be doing everything it could besides that.Wall Street analysts have in general supported the company's strategy, with an average rating of 4.37 out of 5, a \"buy\".Seeking AlphaThat sentiment is especially surprising considering that the average price target of $190 per share represents only 20% potential upside.Seeking AlphaIt is clear that AAPL, despite being a richly priced tech company, is being valued more like a consumer staples stock on a growth-adjusted basis.Is Apple A Good Stock To Invest In Long-Term?AAPL is trading at just under 27x forward earnings, which looks like an aggressive multiple considering that consensus estimates call for single digit growth over the next decade:Seeking AlphaAs just stated, that kind of multiple makes AAPL look more like a McCormick (MKC) or Hormel (HRL) as these stocks tend to trade around 30x earnings with modest growth. Assuming a 4% earnings yield, around 8% annual growth, and stable multiples, investors may expect around 12% annual returns for the stock. If the stock can continue to show the same defensive characteristics that it has shown in recent years, then that kind of return profile may appear attractive for those looking for a lower risk name with market-beating potential.Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?My personal view is unfortunately less bullish. While AAPL has generated stellar returns with defensive characteristics in the past, there is no guarantee of that continuing in the future. I note that AAPL curiously spends far lower on R&D than mega-cap peers. For reference, AAPL spent $21.9 billion or 14.3% of gross profits on R&D in 2021, versus $26 billion or 28.9% at Alphabet (GOOGL) and $24.7 billion or 25.9% at Meta Platforms (FB). I frequently see AAPL investors touting the potential for upside surprise from innovation, but that optimism looks misplaced when compared against the likes of GOOGL and FB. When combined with the fact that the company continues to aggressively repurchase stock even at these premium valuations, one would be better off making the argument that this is a company more focused on generating present-day profits than maximizing growth over the long term. The stock could nonetheless still beat the market, even as growth is expected to slow gradually over the next decade. It wouldn't be unheard of for the stock to sustain a premium multiple even as growth slows to the low single-digits - as referenced above, many consumer staple stocks trade at those kinds of valuations. Yet at the same time, my view is that it is more likely for the stock to experience some multiple compression as growth slows - especially considering that its product revenues are still rather cyclical in nature. Perhaps if the company can show greater exposure to services revenues then it would be more insulated from that kind of risk, but services gross profits still make up only 31% of gross profits (as of 2021). By the time services gross profits make up a large enough percentage of the overall business, services growth would have likely already slowed down as well. Based on consensus estimates, the stock trades at 13x 2031 earnings. I could see the stock trading at 15x earnings by then - that would represent a 2.5x price to earnings growth ratio ('PEG ratio') which would still be quite rich. That would place return potential from capital appreciation at only 15.4% in total or 1.44% annualized over the next 10 years. Throw in the 0.58% dividend yield and investors might get 2% annualized returns. Sure, some may argue that 15x 2031 earnings is too pessimistic, but with a 6% projected growth rate by then, many could also argue that it is even too optimistic. Clearly, forward returns are highly reliant on the stock sustaining an elevated PEG ratio - this is the kind of investment strategy that feels inherently unsustainable. Luckily, it isn't so hard to avoid buying AAPL here because there are so many more compelling alternatives available. While one could find deep value amongst high-growth tech, even established names like FB and GOOGL are both trading at far lower multiples in spite of stronger forward growth rates. I rate AAPL a hold because of both the high potential of poor forward returns as well as the better alternatives available in tech today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":313,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9063814041,"gmtCreate":1651452322518,"gmtModify":1676534907535,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Streaming services providers seem to have reached saturation on subscribers.&nbsp;","listText":"Streaming services providers seem to have reached saturation on subscribers.&nbsp;","text":"Streaming services providers seem to have reached saturation on subscribers.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9063814041","repostId":"1122149386","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1122149386","pubTimestamp":1651451347,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1122149386?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-05-02 08:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Spotify Q1 Earnings Review: A Possible Slowdown Ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122149386","media":"TheStreet","summary":"On April 27, Spotify released its results for the first quarter (Q1) of 2022, leaving the market dis","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>On April 27, <i><b>Spotify</b></i> released its results for the first quarter (Q1) of 2022, leaving the market disappointed.

Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”</p><p>Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.</p><p>Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”</p><p>Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.</p><h3><b>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market rout</b></h3><p>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.</p><p>Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.</p><p>“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”</p><h3><b>Munger says &#34;just say no&#34; to putting bitcoin in your retirement account</b></h3><p>Charlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.</p><p>He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.</p><p>The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.</p><p>“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.</p><p>Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.</p><p>Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.</p><h3><b>Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years old</b></h3><p>A trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.</p><p>“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”</p><p>The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”</p><p>“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire Hathaway</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.</p><p>“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”</p><p>The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.</p><p>“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.</p><p>“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’</b></h3><p>When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.</p><p>“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.</p><p>Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.</p><p>The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.</p><p>“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.</p><p>Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision Blizzard</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.</p><p>In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued. Buffett has saidBerkshire “had no prior knowledge”of Microsoft’s plan to buy the company when Berkshire made its initial investment.</p><p>In January, Microsoftannounced intentions to buy Activisionfor $95 per share. Its stock closed at $75.60 per share on Friday.</p><p>Buffett said he has been buying more shares of Activision since the deal was announced as the stock is trading way below Microsoft’s offer. Buying at these levels will yield a bigger return if the deal closes.</p><p>Buffett said Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision. “If we went over 10%, we would file a report,” he said.</p><p>“If the deal goes through, we make some money, and if the deal doesn’t go through, who knows what happens,” Buffett said.</p><p>“We don’t know what the Justice Department will do, we don’t know what the E.U. will do, we don’t know what 30 other jurisdictions will do. One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.</p><h3><b>Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’</b></h3><p>The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.</p><p>“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”</p><p>Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that. To me, Berkshire is a painting, and I get to paint.”</p><p>“It’s in my head, and I see different things in it as I go along,” Buffett said. “It’s satisfying.”</p><h3><b>Buffett calls Jerome Powell a hero</b></h3><p>In addressing a question about inflation, Buffett talked about the massive stimulus during the pandemic as a key reason for the rising prices now.</p><p>“You print loads of money, and money is going to be worth less,” Buffett said.</p><p>However, he did not criticize the Federal Reserve for its actions to boost money supply and stabilize markets during the health crisis.</p><p>“In my book,Jay Powellis a hero. It’s very simple. He did what he had to do,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says people are becoming more tribal</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said people are becoming more tribal.</p><p>“My general assumption — there’s no way to prove it — but essentially, people are now behaving somewhat more tribal than they have for a long time,” Buffett said.</p><p>“It’s fun to participate in, but it can get very dangerous when people say two plus two is five and the other says two plus two is three, you know, and they’re gonna give you those answers,” he continued.</p><p>The investor said the country seems as tribal as it appeared during the 1930s when public sentiment was split in the U.S. around Franklin Roosevelt. Buffett said he was raised in a household where he and his siblings weren’t served dessert until they “said something nasty” about Roosevelt.</p><p>“I don’t think it’s a good development for society,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he won’t buy bitcoin because ‘it doesn’t produce anything’</b></h3><p>Warren Buffettreiterated his skepticism of bitcoin on Saturday, saying he would be unwilling to buy it for even extremely low prices because it produces nothing of value.</p><p>“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”</p><p>Buffett listed farmland, apartment buildings — and even art — as assets that had more tangible value than bitcoin.</p><p>“Assets, to have value, have to deliver something to somebody. And there’s only one currency that’s accepted. You can come up with all kinds of things. We can put up Berkshire coins, put up Berkshire money but in the end, this is money,” he said, holding up a $20 bill. “And there’s no reason in the world why the United States government … is going to let Berkshire money replace theirs.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s business meeting concludes with shareholder votes</b></h3><p>Berkshire’s formal business meeting followed nearly five hours of Q&amp;A with Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Shareholders voted on a number of proposals at the meeting.</p><p>The proposal that garnered most attention was from the non-profit National Legal and Policy Center. It calls for the company to strip Buffett of his chairman role. Shareholders voted down the proposal backed by CALPERS, the largest U.S. public pension fund.</p><p>Brunel Pension requested the board of Berkshire to publish an annual assessment addressing how the company manages physical and transitional climate-related risks. The number of votes against the motion outnumbered the ones for it.</p><p>One shareholder also took issue with Berkshire’s climate change initiative. The proposal called for Berkshire to issue a report addressing if and how it intends to measure, disclose, and reduce the GHG emissions associated in alignment with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal, requiring net zero emissions. Shareholders voted it down.</p><p>The last proposal asked Berkshire to report to shareholders on the outcomes of their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts by publishing quantitative data on workforce composition and recruitment, retention, and promotion rates of employees by gender, race, and ethnicity. The motion also failed.</p><p></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Full Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday</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\">\nFull Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-05-01 08:22</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway’s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market’s turned into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”</p><p>Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.</p><p>Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”</p><p>Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.</p><h3><b>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market rout</b></h3><p>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do.

And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”</p><h3><b>Munger says &#34;just say no&#34; to putting bitcoin in your retirement account</b></h3><p>Charlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.</p><p>He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.</p><p>The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.</p><p>“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.</p><p>Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.</p><p>Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.</p><h3><b>Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years old</b></h3><p>A trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.</p><p>“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting.

Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market routBerkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.The S&P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cashWarren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the marketIn his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.Buffett on his massive Occidental investmentBuffett scooped up 14% of oil giant Occidental Petroleum, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflationAhead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stopBuffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”Buffett says he has \"so much trouble\" finding businesses to invest inWarren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.Munger says today’s stock market \"almost a mania of speculation\"Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEOBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival ProgressiveBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.Buffett says he has never been \"good at timing\"Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”Munger says \"just say no\" to putting bitcoin in your retirement accountCharlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years oldA trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire HathawayWarren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision BlizzardWarren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued.

One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that.

One day after releasing its first-quarter results, NFLX stock dropped 35%.</p><p>Let&#39;s understand what happened and discuss whether now is the time to invest in the video streaming leader.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0895d96ad71d89de5343d74ab9d0983b\" tg-width=\"1240\" tg-height=\"827\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Figure 1: Netflix Stock: Should You Buy the Dip?</span></p><p><b>What Happened to Netflix?</b></p><p>The company recorded a drop in subscriber numbers for the first time in more than 10 years. During the quarter, more than 200,000 customers canceled their subscriptions.</p><p>Netflix had expected to add 2.5 million new subscribers this quarter, while the market had expected as many as 2.7 million.</p><p>The loss led many analysts to revise their projections for NFLX downward. As investors bailed, the stock fell 25% on April 19 and 35% on the 20th.</p><p>Currently, the stock is trading at prices last seen in 2018. Could this be a signal to buy? We don&#39;t think so.</p><p><b>Is the Streaming Industry in Danger?</b></p><p>The streaming market is growing fast and should continue to do so in the coming years. Its growth prospects are particularly good in developing countries, where internet access is spreading.</p><p>However, because the market is so fragmented, competition can hurt companies. We see this with Netflix, which by raising prices is subject to losing subscribers to several other rivals, such as Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video.</p><p><b>What to Expect in the Coming Months</b></p><p>Netflix has already said that it is studying cheaper subscription models for its platform and is courting the possibility of adding a low-priced tier that would include ads. Although the company has previously been proudly ad-free, its rivals HBOMax and Hulu have already adopted this strategy successfully.</p><p>Will Netflix&#39;s ad revenue help to compensate for a potential decrease in the average subscription price? Even if the company uses a lower membership tier to grow its user base again, it&#39;s possible that its revenue won&#39;t grow as it has in the past.</p><p>In addition, Netflix has also announced that it plans to crack down on password sharing.

One day after releasing its first-quarter results, NFLX stock dropped 35%.Let's understand what happened and discuss whether now is the time to invest in the video streaming leader.Figure 1: Netflix Stock: Should You Buy the Dip?What Happened to Netflix?The company recorded a drop in subscriber numbers for the first time in more than 10 years. During the quarter, more than 200,000 customers canceled their subscriptions.Netflix had expected to add 2.5 million new subscribers this quarter, while the market had expected as many as 2.7 million.The loss led many analysts to revise their projections for NFLX downward. As investors bailed, the stock fell 25% on April 19 and 35% on the 20th.Currently, the stock is trading at prices last seen in 2018. Could this be a signal to buy? We don't think so.Is the Streaming Industry in Danger?The streaming market is growing fast and should continue to do so in the coming years. Its growth prospects are particularly good in developing countries, where internet access is spreading.However, because the market is so fragmented, competition can hurt companies. We see this with Netflix, which by raising prices is subject to losing subscribers to several other rivals, such as Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video.What to Expect in the Coming MonthsNetflix has already said that it is studying cheaper subscription models for its platform and is courting the possibility of adding a low-priced tier that would include ads. Although the company has previously been proudly ad-free, its rivals HBOMax and Hulu have already adopted this strategy successfully.Will Netflix's ad revenue help to compensate for a potential decrease in the average subscription price? Even if the company uses a lower membership tier to grow its user base again, it's possible that its revenue won't grow as it has in the past.In addition, Netflix has also announced that it plans to crack down on password sharing. In the U.S. and Canada, Netflix estimates that 30% of households are using a shared password to access its content.Even if the company can solve these problems and sees some growth in the short term, we can't see Netflix fixing its growth troubles in the long term.Our View: It's Not Time to BuyEven with a 35% drop in just one day, it's hard to make the case that NFLX is currently a cheap stock. Netflix, which is considered a growth company, has stopped growing like it used to. It has even lost subscribers.Until the company is able to find other ways to monetize its existing subscribers, investors should rethink whether the company is a good buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":161,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084163647,"gmtCreate":1650842137823,"gmtModify":1676534799677,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Exciting week ahead.

The magnitude of the upside surprise, however, is below the five-year average: 8.1%, compared to 8.9%.</p><p>“The lower earnings growth rate for Q1 2022 relative to recent quarters can be attributed to both a difficult comparison to unusually high earnings growth in Q1 2021 and continuing macroeconomic headwind,” FactSet Senior Earnings Analyst John Butters said in a note.</p><p>For a third straight week, U.S. equity markets finished lower as the war in Ukraine and renewed worries about inflation weighed on investor sentiment. A steep sell-off late last week that intensified on Friday was spurred by remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell at a panel hosted by the International Monetary Fund signaling a 50-basis point rate increase was “on the table” for May 4, when the U.S. central bank holds its next policy-setting meeting.</p><p>“The combination of Jerome Powell’s comments and some disappointing earnings news was too much for investors to handle heading into the weekend,” Comerica Wealth Management Chief Investment Officer John Lynch said in emailed commentary. “Moreover, market-based breakeven inflation expectations are climbing, providing a more powerful statement on the potential for persistent pricing pressures than headlines have been suggesting.”</p><p>With inflation running at its fastest rate in decades, Federal Reserve officials have been changing their tune on how aggressively the central bank will act to rein in soaring prices.</p><p>“The challenge that we’re dealing with is that inflation expectations keep going up,” Invesco Global Market Strategist Brian Levitt told Yahoo Finance Live on Friday. “The Fed has to move.”</p><p>One of the policymakers who has signaled the likelihood officials will take a more combative approach is San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly, who told Yahoo Finance’s Brian Cheung in a sit-down interview Thursday that she will support raising the target federal funds rate by 0.50% at the conclusion of the next policy-setting meeting next month. The Fed has not moved to raise interest rates in increments larger than 0.25% since 2000.</p><p>&#34;I like to think of it as expeditiously marching towards neutral,” Daly said. “It&#39;s clear the economy doesn&#39;t need the accommodation we&#39;re providing.”</p><p>The swift shift in monetary policy has rattled equity markets, pounding market-leading technology and growth stocks the hardest amid worries higher rates will put a dent in valuations and future cash flows. Given the beating this sector has beared, this week’s earnings lineup will be particularly consequential for investors.</p><p>First on the docket are Microsoft and Alphabet, with results due out after the bell on Tuesday. Microsoft’s earnings picture appears positive among analysts, who are projecting a consensus EPS estimate of $2.19, according to Bloomberg data.</p><p>In the prior reporting period, the tech behemoth topped forecasts at $2.48 versus $2.31 expected by analysts. Stock watchers will keep a close eye on how the war has impacted the company’s all-important cloud-computing business.</p><p>“During calls with numerous partners across the Microsoft and broader software ecosystem, we have not noted any war prompted spending slowdown across Europe more broadly,” Bank of America said in a recent note, though adding it has lowered revenue expectations to account for any potential geopolitical impact.</p><p>Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect Alphabet to report EPS of $25.74. Last quarter, the Google parent company beat analysts&#39; expectations across the board and reported a revenue jump of 34% year-over-year.</p><p>“Google parent, Alphabet, is an advertising powerhouse, and despite the other projects and divisions, this won’t have changed,” Sophie Lund-Yates, an equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown said in a note. “Ad revenues are slated to rise close to 23% in the first quarter, and any disappointment on that front won’t be well received,”</p><p>“An inflationary environment means companies are likely to be looking to save on costs, and digital advertising is cheaper than TV ads or billboards, so this may well be acting as a tailwind,” she added. “Apart from this, watching out for progress on Cloud profitability is key. This is an exciting growth driver, and progress should be showing.”</p><p>Facebook parent company Meta is expected to show another challenging quarter when it reports Wednesday. This comes after the company experienced the biggest single-day wipeout in market history, erasing a record $230 in market value following a report of its first-ever drop in daily user numbers in February. Analysts are looking for EPS to come in at $2.59, per Bloomberg data.</p><p>When iPhone titan Apple releases its results on Thursday, investors will be focused on how the company has fared amid a backdrop of supply chain disruptions – particularly with the latest wave of COVID lockdowns in China. Bloomberg analysts are looking EPS of $1.42.</p><p>“Heading into the quarter, we see some near-term risk from COVID-related shutdowns in China and lower App Store sales,” BofA analysts said in a recent research note. “However, we continue to view Apple as a long-term winner and believe shares have more room to rerate higher as we see significant catalysts including the opportunity to better monetize its installed base, advertising related revenue growth, opportunity in augmented/virtual Reality and long-term growth in services.”</p><p>Rounding out a tech-heavy earnings week will be Amazon, which posts first quarter results along with Apple Thursday after market close, with the Bloomberg consensus EPS estimate at $8.37.</p><p>Analysts at Bank of America in a recent note said Amazon remains the financial institution&#39;s top FANG stock for 2022 on the strength of its cloud business AWS and opportunity to improve margins from trailing 12-month lows, also reiterating its Buy rating on the stock.</p><p>On the economic data front, the Bureau of Economic Analysis is scheduled to release a fresh read on its monthly personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index on Friday. The measure is another gauge of how quickly prices are increasing across the country. Consensus economists expect the PCE to post another monthly climb of 0.9% in March, according to Bloomberg data,</p><p>This would mark the 16th consecutive monthly increase and bring the index up by 6.7% on a year-over-year basis.</p><p>“Supply chain pressures and labor tightness will keep inflation elevated in the near term, while policy normalization and some reversal of spikes cools things off over time,” economists at bank of America said.</p><p><b>Economic calendar</b></p><p>Monday: Chicago Fed National Activity Index, March (0.45 expected, 0.51 during prior month), Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity, April (4.8 expected, 8.7 during prior month)</p><p>Tuesday: Durable Goods Orders, March preliminary (1.0% expected, -2.1% during prior month), Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, March preliminary (0.6% expected, -0.6% during prior month), Capital Goods Orders Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.4% expected, -0.2% during prior month), Capital Goods Shipments Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.5% expected, 0.3% during prior month), FHFA House Pricing Index, month-over-month, February (1.5% expected, 1.6% during prior month), S&amp;P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, month-over-month, February (1.50% expected, 1.79% during prior month), S&amp;P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, year-over-year, February (19.20% expected, 19.10% during prior month), S&amp;P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, year-over-year, February (19.17% during prior month), Conference Board Consumer Confidence, April (108.5 expected, 107.2 during prior month), Conference Board Present Situation, April (153.0 during prior month), Conference Board Expectations, April (76.6 during prior read), Richmond Fed Manufacturing Index, April (8 expected, 13 during prior month), New home sales, March (770,000 expected, 772,000 during prior month), New home sales, month-over-month, March (-0.3% expected, -2.0% during prior month)</p><p>Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended April 22 (-5.0% during prior week), Advance Goods Trade Balance, March (-$105.0 billion expected, -$106.6 billion during the prior month, revised to $106.3 billion), Wholesale Inventories, month-over-month, March preliminary (1.5% expected, 2.5% during previous month), Retail Inventories, month-over-month, March (1.6% expected, 1.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales, month-over-month, March (-1.0% expected, -4.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales NSA, year-over-year, March (-5.4% during prior month)</p><p>Thursday: GDP Annualized, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (1.0% expected, 6.9% prior), Personal Consumption, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (3.4% expected, 2.5% prior), GDP Price Index, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (7.2% expected, 7.1% prior), Core PCE, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (5.6% expected, 5.0% prior), Initial Jobless Claims, week ended April 23 (180,000 expected, 184,000 during prior week), Continuing Claims, week ended April 16 (1.393 million expected, 1.417 million during prior week), Kansas City Fed Manufacturing Index, April (35 expected, 37 during prior month)</p><p>Friday: Employment Cost Index, 1Q (1.1% expected, 1.1% prior), Personal Income, month-over-month, March (0.4% expected, 0.5% during prior month), Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.6% expected, 0.2% during prior month), Real Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.1% expected, -0.4% during prior month), PCE deflator, month-over-month, March (0.9% expected, 0.6% during prior month), PCE deflator, year-over-year, March (6.7% expected, 6.4% during prior month), PCE core deflator, month-over-month, March (0.3% expected, 0.54% during prior month), PCE core deflator, year-over-year, March (5.3% expected, 5.4% during prior month), MNI Chicago PMI, April (62.0 expected, 62.9 during prior month), University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, April final (65.7 expected, 65.7 prior), U. of Mich.

The magnitude of the upside surprise, however, is below the five-year average: 8.1%, compared to 8.9%.“The lower earnings growth rate for Q1 2022 relative to recent quarters can be attributed to both a difficult comparison to unusually high earnings growth in Q1 2021 and continuing macroeconomic headwind,” FactSet Senior Earnings Analyst John Butters said in a note.For a third straight week, U.S. equity markets finished lower as the war in Ukraine and renewed worries about inflation weighed on investor sentiment. A steep sell-off late last week that intensified on Friday was spurred by remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell at a panel hosted by the International Monetary Fund signaling a 50-basis point rate increase was “on the table” for May 4, when the U.S. central bank holds its next policy-setting meeting.“The combination of Jerome Powell’s comments and some disappointing earnings news was too much for investors to handle heading into the weekend,” Comerica Wealth Management Chief Investment Officer John Lynch said in emailed commentary. “Moreover, market-based breakeven inflation expectations are climbing, providing a more powerful statement on the potential for persistent pricing pressures than headlines have been suggesting.”With inflation running at its fastest rate in decades, Federal Reserve officials have been changing their tune on how aggressively the central bank will act to rein in soaring prices.“The challenge that we’re dealing with is that inflation expectations keep going up,” Invesco Global Market Strategist Brian Levitt told Yahoo Finance Live on Friday. “The Fed has to move.”One of the policymakers who has signaled the likelihood officials will take a more combative approach is San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly, who told Yahoo Finance’s Brian Cheung in a sit-down interview Thursday that she will support raising the target federal funds rate by 0.50% at the conclusion of the next policy-setting meeting next month. The Fed has not moved to raise interest rates in increments larger than 0.25% since 2000.\"I like to think of it as expeditiously marching towards neutral,” Daly said. “It's clear the economy doesn't need the accommodation we're providing.”The swift shift in monetary policy has rattled equity markets, pounding market-leading technology and growth stocks the hardest amid worries higher rates will put a dent in valuations and future cash flows. Given the beating this sector has beared, this week’s earnings lineup will be particularly consequential for investors.First on the docket are Microsoft and Alphabet, with results due out after the bell on Tuesday. Microsoft’s earnings picture appears positive among analysts, who are projecting a consensus EPS estimate of $2.19, according to Bloomberg data.In the prior reporting period, the tech behemoth topped forecasts at $2.48 versus $2.31 expected by analysts. Stock watchers will keep a close eye on how the war has impacted the company’s all-important cloud-computing business.“During calls with numerous partners across the Microsoft and broader software ecosystem, we have not noted any war prompted spending slowdown across Europe more broadly,” Bank of America said in a recent note, though adding it has lowered revenue expectations to account for any potential geopolitical impact.Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect Alphabet to report EPS of $25.74. Last quarter, the Google parent company beat analysts' expectations across the board and reported a revenue jump of 34% year-over-year.“Google parent, Alphabet, is an advertising powerhouse, and despite the other projects and divisions, this won’t have changed,” Sophie Lund-Yates, an equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown said in a note. “Ad revenues are slated to rise close to 23% in the first quarter, and any disappointment on that front won’t be well received,”“An inflationary environment means companies are likely to be looking to save on costs, and digital advertising is cheaper than TV ads or billboards, so this may well be acting as a tailwind,” she added. “Apart from this, watching out for progress on Cloud profitability is key. This is an exciting growth driver, and progress should be showing.”Facebook parent company Meta is expected to show another challenging quarter when it reports Wednesday. This comes after the company experienced the biggest single-day wipeout in market history, erasing a record $230 in market value following a report of its first-ever drop in daily user numbers in February. Analysts are looking for EPS to come in at $2.59, per Bloomberg data.When iPhone titan Apple releases its results on Thursday, investors will be focused on how the company has fared amid a backdrop of supply chain disruptions – particularly with the latest wave of COVID lockdowns in China. Bloomberg analysts are looking EPS of $1.42.“Heading into the quarter, we see some near-term risk from COVID-related shutdowns in China and lower App Store sales,” BofA analysts said in a recent research note. “However, we continue to view Apple as a long-term winner and believe shares have more room to rerate higher as we see significant catalysts including the opportunity to better monetize its installed base, advertising related revenue growth, opportunity in augmented/virtual Reality and long-term growth in services.”Rounding out a tech-heavy earnings week will be Amazon, which posts first quarter results along with Apple Thursday after market close, with the Bloomberg consensus EPS estimate at $8.37.Analysts at Bank of America in a recent note said Amazon remains the financial institution's top FANG stock for 2022 on the strength of its cloud business AWS and opportunity to improve margins from trailing 12-month lows, also reiterating its Buy rating on the stock.On the economic data front, the Bureau of Economic Analysis is scheduled to release a fresh read on its monthly personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index on Friday. The measure is another gauge of how quickly prices are increasing across the country. Consensus economists expect the PCE to post another monthly climb of 0.9% in March, according to Bloomberg data,This would mark the 16th consecutive monthly increase and bring the index up by 6.7% on a year-over-year basis.“Supply chain pressures and labor tightness will keep inflation elevated in the near term, while policy normalization and some reversal of spikes cools things off over time,” economists at bank of America said.Economic calendarMonday: Chicago Fed National Activity Index, March (0.45 expected, 0.51 during prior month), Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity, April (4.8 expected, 8.7 during prior month)Tuesday: Durable Goods Orders, March preliminary (1.0% expected, -2.1% during prior month), Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, March preliminary (0.6% expected, -0.6% during prior month), Capital Goods Orders Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.4% expected, -0.2% during prior month), Capital Goods Shipments Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.5% expected, 0.3% during prior month), FHFA House Pricing Index, month-over-month, February (1.5% expected, 1.6% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, month-over-month, February (1.50% expected, 1.79% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, year-over-year, February (19.20% expected, 19.10% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, year-over-year, February (19.17% during prior month), Conference Board Consumer Confidence, April (108.5 expected, 107.2 during prior month), Conference Board Present Situation, April (153.0 during prior month), Conference Board Expectations, April (76.6 during prior read), Richmond Fed Manufacturing Index, April (8 expected, 13 during prior month), New home sales, March (770,000 expected, 772,000 during prior month), New home sales, month-over-month, March (-0.3% expected, -2.0% during prior month)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended April 22 (-5.0% during prior week), Advance Goods Trade Balance, March (-$105.0 billion expected, -$106.6 billion during the prior month, revised to $106.3 billion), Wholesale Inventories, month-over-month, March preliminary (1.5% expected, 2.5% during previous month), Retail Inventories, month-over-month, March (1.6% expected, 1.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales, month-over-month, March (-1.0% expected, -4.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales NSA, year-over-year, March (-5.4% during prior month)Thursday: GDP Annualized, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (1.0% expected, 6.9% prior), Personal Consumption, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (3.4% expected, 2.5% prior), GDP Price Index, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (7.2% expected, 7.1% prior), Core PCE, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (5.6% expected, 5.0% prior), Initial Jobless Claims, week ended April 23 (180,000 expected, 184,000 during prior week), Continuing Claims, week ended April 16 (1.393 million expected, 1.417 million during prior week), Kansas City Fed Manufacturing Index, April (35 expected, 37 during prior month)Friday: Employment Cost Index, 1Q (1.1% expected, 1.1% prior), Personal Income, month-over-month, March (0.4% expected, 0.5% during prior month), Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.6% expected, 0.2% during prior month), Real Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.1% expected, -0.4% during prior month), PCE deflator, month-over-month, March (0.9% expected, 0.6% during prior month), PCE deflator, year-over-year, March (6.7% expected, 6.4% during prior month), PCE core deflator, month-over-month, March (0.3% expected, 0.54% during prior month), PCE core deflator, year-over-year, March (5.3% expected, 5.4% during prior month), MNI Chicago PMI, April (62.0 expected, 62.9 during prior month), University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, April final (65.7 expected, 65.7 prior), U. of Mich.

Here are their top tips on what to do in this latest downturn:</p><p><b>Take a lesson from March 2020</b></p><p>The  most important advice, according to McBride, is literally to do nothing, and don&#39;t panic. And here&#39;s far from the only financial expert to suggest that.</p><p>&#34;Typically in situations where the stock market is in a slump or where it&#39;s behaving erratically, the best course of action is often to just leave your money where it&#39;s at,&#34; said Jacob Channel, senior economic analyst at LendingTree.</p><p>Never sell in a loss. For people who are invested in index funds or stable companies, in all likelihood, their investments will rebound.</p><blockquote>‘The best course of action is often to just leave your money where it’s at.’”</blockquote><blockquote>— Jacob Channel, senior economic analyst at LendingTree</blockquote><p>Don&#39;t believe him? Recent history should offer some comfort. The markets fell sharply at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic amid fears of a prolonged recession. They didn&#39;t stay low for long, though.</p><p>&#34;Following that sell-off, the market rebounded spectacularly and the S&amp;P 500 is currently sitting at a near record high -- even when taking into account its recent decline,&#34; Channel said.</p><p><b>Review your investment plan</b></p><p>For most investors, the money they have in the market -- either through retirement accounts or individual investments -- is intended for long-term purposes. So short-term fluctuations shouldn&#39;t change one&#39;s strategy a whole lot.</p><p>Still, financial experts said this is a good time to review things to make sure your money is working for you. Multiple financial planners suggested rebalancing your portfolio.</p><p>&#34;A market downturn is a great opportunity to look at your investments to see if they still reflect your target allocation,&#34; said David Haas, president of Cereus Financial Advisors in New Jersey.</p><p>It&#39;s natural to see your portfolio allocation drift when stocks are falling and bonds are rising. Getting back on target is key. Doing this means you&#39;ll be selling what&#39;s high and buying what&#39;s low, said Mark Ziety, executive director of WisMed Financial, an advisory firm based in Wisconsin.</p><p>Similarly, now is a good time to review the diversity of one&#39;s portfolio. Are you too geared toward growth funds? Do you have exposure to emerging markets?</p><p>Now might also be the time to do a Roth conversion, if that was something you were interested in, Ziety said. &#34;When markets are down, more shares can be converted from pretax to tax free for the same tax cost,&#34; he noted.</p><p><b>Put your cash to work</b></p><p>A common aphorism among financial whizzes is to buy the dip. In other words, think of the stock market being discounted right now.</p><p>&#34;Depending on your age and time horizon, this may be a time to buy into the market while it is on sale,&#34; said Charles B. Sachs, director of planning and chief compliance officer at Kaufman Rossin Wealth, a national accounting and investment advisory firm.</p><p>On the upside, there is no sign of panic selling activity, despite the stock market&#39;s biggest drop off in seven weeks on Friday, according to the Arms Index that tracks market internals.</p><p>If you have extra money that you can invest, do not sweat the timing too much.</p><p>&#34;You likely won&#39;t catch the market at its best rock-bottom price, so if you want to invest during a downturn, waiting for the &#39;perfect moment&#39; may not be the best strategy,&#34; said Alana Benson, investing spokesperson at personal-finance website NerdWallet.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Here are their top tips on what to do in this latest downturn:Take a lesson from March 2020The  most important advice, according to McBride, is literally to do nothing, and don't panic. And here's far from the only financial expert to suggest that.\"Typically in situations where the stock market is in a slump or where it's behaving erratically, the best course of action is often to just leave your money where it's at,\" said Jacob Channel, senior economic analyst at LendingTree.Never sell in a loss. For people who are invested in index funds or stable companies, in all likelihood, their investments will rebound.‘The best course of action is often to just leave your money where it’s at.’”— Jacob Channel, senior economic analyst at LendingTreeDon't believe him? Recent history should offer some comfort. The markets fell sharply at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic amid fears of a prolonged recession. They didn't stay low for long, though.\"Following that sell-off, the market rebounded spectacularly and the S&P 500 is currently sitting at a near record high -- even when taking into account its recent decline,\" Channel said.Review your investment planFor most investors, the money they have in the market -- either through retirement accounts or individual investments -- is intended for long-term purposes. So short-term fluctuations shouldn't change one's strategy a whole lot.Still, financial experts said this is a good time to review things to make sure your money is working for you. Multiple financial planners suggested rebalancing your portfolio.\"A market downturn is a great opportunity to look at your investments to see if they still reflect your target allocation,\" said David Haas, president of Cereus Financial Advisors in New Jersey.It's natural to see your portfolio allocation drift when stocks are falling and bonds are rising. Getting back on target is key. Doing this means you'll be selling what's high and buying what's low, said Mark Ziety, executive director of WisMed Financial, an advisory firm based in Wisconsin.Similarly, now is a good time to review the diversity of one's portfolio. Are you too geared toward growth funds? Do you have exposure to emerging markets?Now might also be the time to do a Roth conversion, if that was something you were interested in, Ziety said. \"When markets are down, more shares can be converted from pretax to tax free for the same tax cost,\" he noted.Put your cash to workA common aphorism among financial whizzes is to buy the dip. In other words, think of the stock market being discounted right now.\"Depending on your age and time horizon, this may be a time to buy into the market while it is on sale,\" said Charles B. Sachs, director of planning and chief compliance officer at Kaufman Rossin Wealth, a national accounting and investment advisory firm.On the upside, there is no sign of panic selling activity, despite the stock market's biggest drop off in seven weeks on Friday, according to the Arms Index that tracks market internals.If you have extra money that you can invest, do not sweat the timing too much.\"You likely won't catch the market at its best rock-bottom price, so if you want to invest during a downturn, waiting for the 'perfect moment' may not be the best strategy,\" said Alana Benson, investing spokesperson at personal-finance website NerdWallet.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":94,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9031391701,"gmtCreate":1646439968756,"gmtModify":1676534129138,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Looking good for Tesla&nbsp;","listText":"Looking good for Tesla&nbsp;","text":"Looking good for Tesla","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9031391701","repostId":"1191742725","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191742725","pubTimestamp":1646437455,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1191742725?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-03-05 07:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TSLA Stock Starts to Rev Up on Berlin Gigafactory Approval","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191742725","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Despite general weakness in the market, shares of Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA) are outperforming both the S&P ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Despite general weakness in the market, shares of <b>Tesla</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>) are outperforming both the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>and<b>Nasdaq 100</b>today.

Earnings jumped 22% to $2.48 per share. Wall Street analysts had expected revenue of $50.9 billion and EPS of $2.31.While Microsoft stock has tumbled about 15% this year, dragged down by the steep market correction, analysts had been generally upbeat heading into the software giant’s December quarter results.“Digital technology is the most malleable resource at the world’s disposal to overcome constraints and reimagine everyday work and life,” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said in the earnings press release.Revenue from the company’s Productivity and Business Processes segment, which includes Office and other applications was $15.9 billion, up 19%, in line with both the Wall Street consensus at $15.9 billion and the company’s guidance range of $15.7 billion to $15.95 billion. Revenue was up 14% for Office Commercial products and 15% for Office Consumer. LinkedIn revenue was up 37% from a year ago.For the Intelligent Cloud segment, including Azure, revenue was $18.3 billion, up 26%, and likewise in line with Wall Street at $18.3 billion and guidance of between $18.1 billion and $18.35 billion. Azure revenue was up 46%, slowing from 50% growth one quarter earlier. Microsoft Cloud revenue, which also includes Office 365 and Dynamics 365, was up 32%.Microsoft said revenue from its More Personal Computing segment, which includes Windows, Surface and Xbox, among other things, was $17.5 billion, up 15%, and ahead of both consensus at $16.6 billion, and the company’s guidance range of $16.35 billion and $16.75 billion. Search and news advertising revenue rose 32% in the quarter.Windows OEM revenue—from PC makers—was up a surprising 25%, driven in particular by strong growth in enterprise PC demand.

However, there are a number of other EV stocks lurking on Wall Street looking to dethrone chief executive officer Elon Musk and his empire.</p><p>Of course, Tesla just opened a brand new manufacturing plant outside of Berlin, Germany that will employ 12,000 people and produce 500,000 vehicles per year going forward. In turn, the firm hopes to produce 20 million EVs per year by 2030. Furthermore, the German plant opened just after the company announced that it has received approval to expand its existing plant in Shanghai, China. Moreover, it was recently reported that Tesla is exploring a possible stock split, as well as a special dividend to shareholders.</p><p>In other words, Tesla is firing on all cylinders — and that continues to be good news for shareholders. Specifically, TSLA stock is up 40% over the past six months — including a 24% gain in the last month.</p><p>However, as successful as Elon Musk and Tesla have been, there are numerous EV firms nipping at Tesla’s heels looking to take market share from the company. So, with that in mind, here are three up-and-coming EV stocks that I think could topple Tesla.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LCID\">Lucid Motors</a></p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RIVN\">Rivian</a></p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">Nio</a></p><p>Now, let’s dive in and take a closer look at each one.</p><p>EV Stocks to Watch: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LCID\">Lucid Motors</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/94f5c0975c384293952c41834e6e8a57\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: gg5795 / Shutterstock.com</p><p>The company that is most often mentioned as the one that could dethrone Tesla is Newark, California-based Lucid Motors.</p><p>The company is run by CEO Peter Rawlinson, who previously worked at Tesla. That said, Lucid is competing directly against Tesla in the market for luxury EVs, and it already boasts a superior battery to the ones used by Tesla. In fact, Lucid’s first electric vehicle — the Lucid Air — has an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certifieddriving range of 517 miles. That is 20% more than the Tesla Model S Plaid. And it was one of the reasons the Lucid Air was namedMotor Trend’s 2022 Car of the Year.</p><p>Of course, Lucid Air has a long way to go to catch Tesla in terms of production. The Lucid Air sedan only began production last fall, and the company forecasts that it will produce between12,000 and 14,000 vehicles this year compared to1.4 million expected to roll off the assembly lines at Tesla. However, Lucid is ramping up its production aggressively, forecasting that it will manufacture 50,000 vehicles by the end of 2023.</p><p>Furthermore, Lucid’s innovation is top tier as well. The company is bringing an electric SUV to market in 2024 called the Lucid Gravity, and its battery pack offers the fastest charging times of any EV company with the ability to recharge a depleted battery to 90% within 46 minutes.</p><p>So, with all of this combined, LCID stock is one of the top EV stocks to watch moving forward.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RIVN\">Rivian</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68f4b76fb80a787d9b7ece035c1f976a\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock</p><p>In many ways, Rivian is already ahead of Tesla. Last September, the company became the first EV maker to bring a fully electric pick-up truck to market. In fact, the company’s R1T truck beat Tesla’s Cybertruck to market, as well as planned pick-ups from both General Motors(GM) and Ford(F).</p><p>Early reviews of the R1T electric truck have verged on ecstatic, with Motor Trend naming it the2021 Truck of the Year.

However, there are a number of other EV stocks lurking on Wall Street looking to dethrone chief executive officer Elon Musk and his empire.Of course, Tesla just opened a brand new manufacturing plant outside of Berlin, Germany that will employ 12,000 people and produce 500,000 vehicles per year going forward. In turn, the firm hopes to produce 20 million EVs per year by 2030. Furthermore, the German plant opened just after the company announced that it has received approval to expand its existing plant in Shanghai, China. Moreover, it was recently reported that Tesla is exploring a possible stock split, as well as a special dividend to shareholders.In other words, Tesla is firing on all cylinders — and that continues to be good news for shareholders. Specifically, TSLA stock is up 40% over the past six months — including a 24% gain in the last month.However, as successful as Elon Musk and Tesla have been, there are numerous EV firms nipping at Tesla’s heels looking to take market share from the company. So, with that in mind, here are three up-and-coming EV stocks that I think could topple Tesla.Lucid MotorsRivianNioNow, let’s dive in and take a closer look at each one.EV Stocks to Watch: Lucid MotorsSource: gg5795 / Shutterstock.comThe company that is most often mentioned as the one that could dethrone Tesla is Newark, California-based Lucid Motors.The company is run by CEO Peter Rawlinson, who previously worked at Tesla. That said, Lucid is competing directly against Tesla in the market for luxury EVs, and it already boasts a superior battery to the ones used by Tesla. In fact, Lucid’s first electric vehicle — the Lucid Air — has an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certifieddriving range of 517 miles. That is 20% more than the Tesla Model S Plaid. And it was one of the reasons the Lucid Air was namedMotor Trend’s 2022 Car of the Year.Of course, Lucid Air has a long way to go to catch Tesla in terms of production. The Lucid Air sedan only began production last fall, and the company forecasts that it will produce between12,000 and 14,000 vehicles this year compared to1.4 million expected to roll off the assembly lines at Tesla. However, Lucid is ramping up its production aggressively, forecasting that it will manufacture 50,000 vehicles by the end of 2023.Furthermore, Lucid’s innovation is top tier as well. The company is bringing an electric SUV to market in 2024 called the Lucid Gravity, and its battery pack offers the fastest charging times of any EV company with the ability to recharge a depleted battery to 90% within 46 minutes.So, with all of this combined, LCID stock is one of the top EV stocks to watch moving forward.RivianSource: Michael Vi / ShutterstockIn many ways, Rivian is already ahead of Tesla. Last September, the company became the first EV maker to bring a fully electric pick-up truck to market. In fact, the company’s R1T truck beat Tesla’s Cybertruck to market, as well as planned pick-ups from both General Motors(GM) and Ford(F).Early reviews of the R1T electric truck have verged on ecstatic, with Motor Trend naming it the2021 Truck of the Year. And at the end of last year, Rivian reported that it had more than70,000 pre-ordersfor its R1T truck. Additionally, the company already has production facilities around the world, and has plans to build a brand new$5 billion production center in Georgia.Overall, the success Rivian has experienced with its R1T truck helped the company to raise $13.5 billion in what was one of the biggest initial public offerings (IPOs) of last year. RIVN stock skyrocketed on its market debut, rising as high as $179.47 a share on investor euphoria before pulling back to its current, more moderate level of right around $50 per share.In addition to sales of its R1T pick-up truck, Rivian also has a lucrative arrangement to supply e-commerce giant Amazon(AMZN) with100,000 electric delivery vans. The Amazon arrangement has also inspired confidence in Rivian and its future ability to compete against Tesla and other established automakers. And while management has madea few missteps in recent months, the long-term prospects for Rivian and RIVN stock remain largely positive.EV Stocks to Watch: NioSource: Sundry Photography / Shutterstock.comNio is often referred to as the “Tesla of China,” and one of the leading candidates to supplant Elon Musk’s company not only in the Chinese market, but around the world.Nio is making strides in that direction, expanding sales of its electric sedan to Europe late last year with plans to be operating in25 foreign markets, including the U.S., by 2025. At home in China, Nio continues tobeat its own production targets, most recently announcing that itdelivered 6,131 vehiclesin February, a 10% year-over-year (YOY) increase. In turn, this brings its cumulative deliveries for 2022 across all of its EVs to 182,853.Furthermore, Nio has began the production of its new ET7, an electric sedan that boasts a 1,000-kilometer driving range on a single battery charge, besting the driving range of all other EVs — even the Lucid Air sedan.Collectively, Nio stock has been beaten down in recent months, having dropped 33.5% year-to-date (YTD) to $21.06. However, NIO stock got a boost recently after it was announced that the company would pursue asecondary listingon the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. And, Nio is also pioneering a successful“Battery as a Service”model where customers pay a monthly fee to swap depleted electric vehicle batteries for fully charged ones, cutting down on costs for at-home charging stations.So while shares may be down, that just makes NIO stock one of the top EV stocks for investors to keep their eye on.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":122,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9095541425,"gmtCreate":1644967506311,"gmtModify":1676533980210,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"As funny as it might be, seems like Putin is the 'boss' of the stock market.

During it, the company is widely expected to unveil at least two new devices: the iPhone SE Generation 3 and the iPad Air Generation 5.</p><p>The Apple Maven will cover the event in real time, via live blog, starting at 9:50 a.m. Cupertino time (Pacific).

The second generation model, whose price starts at a very modest $399 in the US, is still not 5G-equipped and has not been updated in nearly two years.</p><p>The most recent iPad Air was unveiled in September 2020. It is currently the oldest device in Apple’s tablet lineup, since the regular iPad, iPad mini and iPad Pro have all been refreshed within the past 12 months. Expect an A15 bionic chip, better camera and 5G to be the key new features.</p><p>It is possible that a new Mac device will be introduced as well. Apple has been slowly upgrading all its desktops and laptops with a version of its home-made M1 chips. Left to be equipped with them is the iMac 27-inch and Mac Pro.</p><p>Very unlikely to be discussed are brand-new product categories. Apple’s mixed reality device is expected to be launched within the next 12 months, maybe this year already. Could CEO Tim Cook and his team have a nice surprise up their sleeves?</p><p>Do the new products matter?</p><p>On the day that Apple announced the upcoming event, Apple stock climbed 2%. The spike was barely any more pronounced than the S&amp;P 500’s climb. It seems clear that simply confirming the event was not enough to turn investors significantly more bullish towards AAPL.</p><p>The question then becomes: could Apple stock rally just before or shortly after the product launch event? This is likely going to depend on what, exactly, the company plans on announcing.</p><p>AsI explained a couple of weeks ago, the new iPhone SE could help to boost sales among the more price-sensitive consumers, particularly in emerging markets. But because most investors probably already expect the new model to come out next week, it is unlikely that the device will do much to the stock price in the short term.</p><p>What could really move the needle is the introduction of Apple’s AR and VR goggles. I suspect that Wall Street analysts have yet to fully quantify Apple’s metaverse opportunity, and a new product here could get the ball rolling. But again, mixed reality is unlikely to be a topic of conversation this early in 2022.</p><p>In the end, I believe that the decision to own Apple stock should be based on the company’s business fundamentals and longer-term prospects, not on what happens to the product portfolio in the next few days.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple Stock: Will The New iPhone and iPad Make A Splash?</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\">\nApple Stock: Will The New iPhone and iPad Make A Splash?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-03 23:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.thestreet.com/apple/iphone/apple-stock-will-the-new-iphone-and-ipad-make-a-splash><strong>TheStreet</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple will unveil new products on March 8.

During it, the company is widely expected to unveil at least two new devices: the iPhone SE Generation 3 and the iPad Air Generation 5.The Apple Maven will cover the event in real time, via live blog, starting at 9:50 a.m. Cupertino time (Pacific). For now, we discuss whether the new product introductions could have a meaningful impact on Apple stock.Figure 1: Apple Stock: Will The New iPhone and iPad Make A Splash?What Apple could unveilIt is nearly a certainty that the iPhone SE will be the star of the show. The second generation model, whose price starts at a very modest $399 in the US, is still not 5G-equipped and has not been updated in nearly two years.The most recent iPad Air was unveiled in September 2020. It is currently the oldest device in Apple’s tablet lineup, since the regular iPad, iPad mini and iPad Pro have all been refreshed within the past 12 months. Expect an A15 bionic chip, better camera and 5G to be the key new features.It is possible that a new Mac device will be introduced as well. Apple has been slowly upgrading all its desktops and laptops with a version of its home-made M1 chips. Left to be equipped with them is the iMac 27-inch and Mac Pro.Very unlikely to be discussed are brand-new product categories. Apple’s mixed reality device is expected to be launched within the next 12 months, maybe this year already. Could CEO Tim Cook and his team have a nice surprise up their sleeves?Do the new products matter?On the day that Apple announced the upcoming event, Apple stock climbed 2%. The spike was barely any more pronounced than the S&P 500’s climb. It seems clear that simply confirming the event was not enough to turn investors significantly more bullish towards AAPL.The question then becomes: could Apple stock rally just before or shortly after the product launch event? This is likely going to depend on what, exactly, the company plans on announcing.AsI explained a couple of weeks ago, the new iPhone SE could help to boost sales among the more price-sensitive consumers, particularly in emerging markets. But because most investors probably already expect the new model to come out next week, it is unlikely that the device will do much to the stock price in the short term.What could really move the needle is the introduction of Apple’s AR and VR goggles. I suspect that Wall Street analysts have yet to fully quantify Apple’s metaverse opportunity, and a new product here could get the ball rolling. But again, mixed reality is unlikely to be a topic of conversation this early in 2022.In the end, I believe that the decision to own Apple stock should be based on the company’s business fundamentals and longer-term prospects, not on what happens to the product portfolio in the next few days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":105,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9066822507,"gmtCreate":1651886648309,"gmtModify":1676534990829,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Depends on your investing horizon.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) was reported to be considering a hardware subscription service for its suite of products. So naturally, the attention is on its flagship iPhone segment. Nevertheless, nothing has been confirmed, and plans could continue to be developed or even stalled.</p><p>However, we believe it could mark a significant pivot in Apple&#39;s strategy to reach further into Android&#39;s (GOOGL) (GOOG) installed base. Apple&#39;s 5G launches starting with iPhone 12, have seen tremendous success in the US and China. Furthermore, iPhone 13 has continued its massive momentum. Recent supply chain checks also revealed that it&#39;s trending ahead of estimates, despite the transitory shutdown by its key contract manufacturer Foxconn (OTCPK:HNHAF).</p><p>We discuss why hardware/iPhone subscriptions could be a massive game-changer. We also maintain our Buy rating on AAPL stock. But, we noted a robust recovery from its March bottom, and its price action doesn&#39;t seem ideal to add exposure.</p><p>Therefore, if you are not in a rush, you can consider waiting for the recent spike to be digested first before adding.</p><p><b>AAPL Stock Key Metrics</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/612265ffa4b9faeeddd47fdd0766fca4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>AAPL stock NTM EBIT valuation (TIKR)</span></p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee1dbf8a24918fcadf0b82caff8e4270\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>AAPL stock consensus price targets Vs. stock performance (TIKR)</span></p><p></p><p>AAPL stock&#39;s NTM EBIT multiple of 22.9x is trading ahead of its 3Y NTM EBIT mean of 20.2x. So, AAPL stock has moved away from the 20x multiple that has supported its stock over the past year.</p><p>Furthermore, the stock has also progressed well ahead of its most conservative price targets ((PTs)) as seen above. Its most conservative PTs have been robust support levels for AAPL stock over time. Therefore, we think the current buy zone is not ideal if you are looking to add exposure. But, if you are not concerned with near-term volatility, its stock is still not significantly overvalued.</p><p>Furthermore, we believe that Apple holds several optionalities that could spur the Street to re-rate its stock. These include its Apple Car project, its burgeoning services segment, and its rapidly growing ad business.</p><h2>Why Apple&#39;s iPhone Subscriptions Could Be A Game-Changer</h2><p>Bloomberg reported that Apple is mulling a subscription service for its hardware, including its iconic iPhone. Therefore, subscribers would only need to pay a monthly fee. Apple would manage the program through a subscriber&#39;s Apple account, similar to how they have subscribed to other Apple services.</p><p>Notably, it&#39;s different from its current installment programs. Bloomberg noted (edited): &#34;The monthly charge wouldn&#39;t be the price of the device split across 12 or 24 months. Rather, it would be a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee that depends on which device the user chooses.&#34;</p><p>We believe that this could be a noteworthy development in Apple&#39;s services strategy. Apple has been moving ahead with monetizing its massive hardware active installed base that has exceeded 1.65B. Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1&#39;22 (CQ4&#39;21).</p><p>Apple&#39;s premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei&#39;s demise with incredible &#34;ruthlessness,&#34; despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.</p><p>However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it&#39;s clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.</p><p>While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about &#34;12% of Apple&#39;s total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.&#34;</p><p>Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China&#39;s 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg&#39;s Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):</p><blockquote><i>A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds</i>.</blockquote><blockquote>That would let Apple<i>sign up more customers for services</i>, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.</blockquote><blockquote>In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn&#39;t release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.<i>The company has stuck by Steve Jobs&#39; &#39;don&#39;t ship junk&#39; ethos.</i>-Bloomberg</blockquote><p>Furthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.</p><p>Therefore, there&#39;s a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) was reported to be considering a hardware subscription service for its suite of products. So naturally, the attention is on its flagship iPhone segment. Nevertheless, nothing has been confirmed, and plans could continue to be developed or even stalled.However, we believe it could mark a significant pivot in Apple's strategy to reach further into Android's (GOOGL) (GOOG) installed base. Apple's 5G launches starting with iPhone 12, have seen tremendous success in the US and China. Furthermore, iPhone 13 has continued its massive momentum. Recent supply chain checks also revealed that it's trending ahead of estimates, despite the transitory shutdown by its key contract manufacturer Foxconn (OTCPK:HNHAF).We discuss why hardware/iPhone subscriptions could be a massive game-changer. We also maintain our Buy rating on AAPL stock. But, we noted a robust recovery from its March bottom, and its price action doesn't seem ideal to add exposure.Therefore, if you are not in a rush, you can consider waiting for the recent spike to be digested first before adding.AAPL Stock Key MetricsAAPL stock NTM EBIT valuation (TIKR)AAPL stock consensus price targets Vs. stock performance (TIKR)AAPL stock's NTM EBIT multiple of 22.9x is trading ahead of its 3Y NTM EBIT mean of 20.2x. So, AAPL stock has moved away from the 20x multiple that has supported its stock over the past year.Furthermore, the stock has also progressed well ahead of its most conservative price targets ((PTs)) as seen above. Its most conservative PTs have been robust support levels for AAPL stock over time. Therefore, we think the current buy zone is not ideal if you are looking to add exposure. But, if you are not concerned with near-term volatility, its stock is still not significantly overvalued.Furthermore, we believe that Apple holds several optionalities that could spur the Street to re-rate its stock. These include its Apple Car project, its burgeoning services segment, and its rapidly growing ad business.Why Apple's iPhone Subscriptions Could Be A Game-ChangerBloomberg reported that Apple is mulling a subscription service for its hardware, including its iconic iPhone. Therefore, subscribers would only need to pay a monthly fee. Apple would manage the program through a subscriber's Apple account, similar to how they have subscribed to other Apple services.Notably, it's different from its current installment programs. Bloomberg noted (edited): \"The monthly charge wouldn't be the price of the device split across 12 or 24 months. Rather, it would be a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee that depends on which device the user chooses.\"We believe that this could be a noteworthy development in Apple's services strategy. Apple has been moving ahead with monetizing its massive hardware active installed base that has exceeded 1.65B. Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1'22 (CQ4'21).Apple's premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei's demise with incredible \"ruthlessness,\" despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it's clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about \"12% of Apple's total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.\"Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China's 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds.That would let Applesign up more customers for services, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn't release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.The company has stuck by Steve Jobs' 'don't ship junk' ethos.-BloombergFurthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.Therefore, there's a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS. Hence, we believe a hardware subscription strategy could be massive for the Cupertino company to spur the adoption of its 5G devices.We believe that Apple can continue innovating and introducing effective ideas to capture the segment Android has traditionally dominated without necessarily sacrificing its brand value and margins.Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?AAPL stock is slightly overvalued, but not by much. Therefore, if you need a higher margin of safety, you can consider taking a 10-15% haircut.Otherwise, if you have a firm conviction of Apple's execution ability, the current price could offer a suitable opportunity to increase exposure.Furthermore, we think Apple has several optionalities that have not been factored into its stock price. And the potential hardware subscription strategy adds to its growing list of monetization potential.As such, we reiterate our Buy rating on AAPL stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9083970192,"gmtCreate":1650069991630,"gmtModify":1676534639504,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The party is just getting started","listText":"The party is just getting started","text":"The party is just getting started","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9083970192","repostId":"2227638600","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2227638600","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":1650064990,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2227638600?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-04-16 07:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Twitter Adopts \"Poison Pill\" to Fight Musk Takeover","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2227638600","media":"Reuters","summary":"$Twitter$ Inc on Friday adopted a limited-duration shareholder rights plan to protect itself from billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk's $43 billion cash takeover offer.Musk made the bid on Wednesday in a letter to the board of Twitter- the micro-blogging platform that has become a global means of communication for individuals and world leaders - and it was made public in a regulatory filing on Thursday.After his TED talk on Thursday, Musk hinted at the possibility of a hostile bid in which he wou","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc on Friday adopted a limited-duration shareholder rights plan to protect itself from billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk&#39;s $43 billion cash takeover offer.</p><p>Musk made the bid on Wednesday in a letter to the board of Twitter- the micro-blogging platform that has become a global means of communication for individuals and world leaders - and it was made public in a regulatory filing on Thursday.</p><p>After his TED talk on Thursday, Musk hinted at the possibility of a hostile bid in which he would bypass Twitter&#39;s board and put the offer directly to its shareholders, tweeting: &#34;It would be utterly indefensible not to put this offer to a shareholder vote.&#34;</p><p>Under the plan, also known as a &#39;poison pill&#39;

The electric vehicle (EV) innovator hosted it","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>This has been an exciting week for <b>Tesla</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>). The electric vehicle (EV) innovator hosted its first-ever Cyber Rodeo to celebrate the opening of its Austin, Texas Gigafactory. The event brought many exciting updates as Elon Musk wowed the crowd of 15,000, paying homage to the state of Texas. While TSLA stock has struggled over the past few days, the momentum surrounding the company’s announcements will carry into the coming weeks. Tesla proved that it is focused on the road ahead and it has given investors several key reasons to be optimistic.</p><p>That doesn’t mean that this week’s news has all been good. While there have been some less-than-positive announcements out of Shanghai, Cyber Rodeo coverage has overshadowed most other news. Now that the event is over, investors know that Tesla has several major catalysts on the horizon. Wall Street will likely focus on that, particularly as production setbacks have never kept TSLA stock down for long. And for fans of the EV sector or of Tesla’s tech, there is plenty to look forward to.</p><p>As this week wraps up, let’s take a look at the top headlines that TSLA stock investors should be reading.</p><p>TSLA Stock News: Top Headlines of the Week</p><p><i>Tesla officially opens Texas Gigafactory</i></p><p>Cyber Rodeo is not just important because it captured the nation’s attention. It is important because it represents the opening of Tesla’s Austin, Texas Gigafactory. This is truly a monumental event in the company’s history. “We are really entering a new phase of Tesla’s future, Musk told the crowd. He added that when the factory begins full production, it will be “epic.” Indeed, the new factory offers Tesla the space it needs to grow and scale production. Tesla set a sales record for the first quarter of the year and it has no intention of slowing down. The Austin Gigafactory will allow it to accomplish exactly that, helping TSLA stock rise even more.</p><p><i>Tesla will sell its long-awaited Cybertruck next year, Elon Musk says</i></p><p>As noted, the Cyber Rodeo brought many exciting updates. One of the most important involves the Cybertruck. Attendees got a glimpse of the futuristic vehicle that Tesla fans have been looking forward to for months. Now the CEO claims that Tesla wants to have the truck in production before the end of 2023. “You’re going to have this next year, and it’s really going to be great,” he said at GigaFest. While Tesla’s history of meeting production deadlines isn’t immaculate, even speculation of Cybertruck progress is usually enough to send TSLA stock up. Additionally, Musk provided a similar update on the long-haul Tesla semi truck.</p><p><i>Long-time Tesla bull Ron Baron plans to hold the stock at least another eight years</i></p><p>Even while TSLA stock struggled this week, it received a strong endorsement from someone who believes in the company. Ron Baron is one of Tesla’s principle shareholders, with a stake that has increased by twentyfold since 2016. This week he appeared on “Squawk Box” on <i>CNBC</i> and made it clear he is as bullish on TSLA stock as ever. His firm, <b>Baron Capital</b>, has invested almost 13% of its assets in Tesla, totaling roughly $6.2 billion. Baron notes that he plans to still be holding TSLA stock in eight to 10 years. “I think for Tesla this is the very beginning of what they’re doing,” he said.</p><p><i>Biden administration, auto leaders want ‘seamless’ EV charging station use</i></p><p>Before the Cyber Rodeo, Musk had another important event. On April 6, he joined several other automotive CEOs in a virtual meeting with several members of President Joe Biden’s administration. The topic was the future of EVs and charging infrastructure. According to a White House statement, “there was broad consensus that charging stations and vehicles need to be interoperable and provide a seamless user experience.” Musk has criticized Bidenon numerous occasions for not acknowledging Tesla among the auto industry’s leaders. This meeting may usher in a turning point for the two.</p><p><i>Tesla’s ‘full self driving’ is more than vaporware. Why that’s good for the stock.</i></p><p>Throughout recent months, Tesla has faced considerable criticism for flaws in its full self-driving (FSD) tech. A primary argument among TSLA stock bears is that it will never be good enough to deliver on Musk’s promises. According to Tesla expert Al Root, though, this is not the case. He experienced it first hand while riding with a Tesla owner who was beta testing a new FSD system.

The electric vehicle (EV) innovator hosted its first-ever Cyber Rodeo to celebrate the opening of its Austin, Texas Gigafactory. The event brought many exciting updates as Elon Musk wowed the crowd of 15,000, paying homage to the state of Texas. While TSLA stock has struggled over the past few days, the momentum surrounding the company’s announcements will carry into the coming weeks. Tesla proved that it is focused on the road ahead and it has given investors several key reasons to be optimistic.That doesn’t mean that this week’s news has all been good. While there have been some less-than-positive announcements out of Shanghai, Cyber Rodeo coverage has overshadowed most other news. Now that the event is over, investors know that Tesla has several major catalysts on the horizon. Wall Street will likely focus on that, particularly as production setbacks have never kept TSLA stock down for long. And for fans of the EV sector or of Tesla’s tech, there is plenty to look forward to.As this week wraps up, let’s take a look at the top headlines that TSLA stock investors should be reading.TSLA Stock News: Top Headlines of the WeekTesla officially opens Texas GigafactoryCyber Rodeo is not just important because it captured the nation’s attention. It is important because it represents the opening of Tesla’s Austin, Texas Gigafactory. This is truly a monumental event in the company’s history. “We are really entering a new phase of Tesla’s future, Musk told the crowd. He added that when the factory begins full production, it will be “epic.” Indeed, the new factory offers Tesla the space it needs to grow and scale production. Tesla set a sales record for the first quarter of the year and it has no intention of slowing down. The Austin Gigafactory will allow it to accomplish exactly that, helping TSLA stock rise even more.Tesla will sell its long-awaited Cybertruck next year, Elon Musk saysAs noted, the Cyber Rodeo brought many exciting updates. One of the most important involves the Cybertruck. Attendees got a glimpse of the futuristic vehicle that Tesla fans have been looking forward to for months. Now the CEO claims that Tesla wants to have the truck in production before the end of 2023. “You’re going to have this next year, and it’s really going to be great,” he said at GigaFest. While Tesla’s history of meeting production deadlines isn’t immaculate, even speculation of Cybertruck progress is usually enough to send TSLA stock up. Additionally, Musk provided a similar update on the long-haul Tesla semi truck.Long-time Tesla bull Ron Baron plans to hold the stock at least another eight yearsEven while TSLA stock struggled this week, it received a strong endorsement from someone who believes in the company. Ron Baron is one of Tesla’s principle shareholders, with a stake that has increased by twentyfold since 2016. This week he appeared on “Squawk Box” on CNBC and made it clear he is as bullish on TSLA stock as ever. His firm, Baron Capital, has invested almost 13% of its assets in Tesla, totaling roughly $6.2 billion. Baron notes that he plans to still be holding TSLA stock in eight to 10 years. “I think for Tesla this is the very beginning of what they’re doing,” he said.Biden administration, auto leaders want ‘seamless’ EV charging station useBefore the Cyber Rodeo, Musk had another important event. On April 6, he joined several other automotive CEOs in a virtual meeting with several members of President Joe Biden’s administration. The topic was the future of EVs and charging infrastructure. According to a White House statement, “there was broad consensus that charging stations and vehicles need to be interoperable and provide a seamless user experience.” Musk has criticized Bidenon numerous occasions for not acknowledging Tesla among the auto industry’s leaders. This meeting may usher in a turning point for the two.Tesla’s ‘full self driving’ is more than vaporware. Why that’s good for the stock.Throughout recent months, Tesla has faced considerable criticism for flaws in its full self-driving (FSD) tech. A primary argument among TSLA stock bears is that it will never be good enough to deliver on Musk’s promises. According to Tesla expert Al Root, though, this is not the case. He experienced it first hand while riding with a Tesla owner who was beta testing a new FSD system. Root confirms that the software is advancing well and it is part of the reason Tesla has become a trillion-dollar company. He sees it becoming an important upside driver for TSLA stock in the future.Tesla ‘recalls’ another 120,000 vehicles in China, but it’s another software update fixTesla has recalled 120,000 EVs in China due to technical malfunctions. While recalls are never good news for an automaker, they haven’t kept TSLA stock down in the past. And according to Electrek, the incident is “another over-the-air software update fix.” While we don’t know much, the recalls were caused by what theSouth China Morning Post describes as an issue related to a “semiconductor component.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":8,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9018826170,"gmtCreate":1649028091830,"gmtModify":1676534436649,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazon's AWS is driving the company's profitability.","listText":"Amazon's AWS is driving the company's profitability.","text":"Amazon's AWS is driving the company's profitability.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9018826170","repostId":"2224324049","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2224324049","pubTimestamp":1648948730,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2224324049?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-04-03 09:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Monster Warren Buffett Stock-Split Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2224324049","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These Buffett-backed stocks could elevate your portfolio.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Warren Buffett has said that he will never split <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> stock.

The backdrop of geopolitical tensions also leads me to think oil prices are going to remain lofty for the indefinite future.The thing is, it's all just happened so fast -- faster than even Chevron and its peers could have anticipated.Those who know the company's history might recall it does a pretty good job of splitting its stock as needed to keep its price and trading manageable for the average investor. It hasn't felt like it needed to since 2004, as shares have been rather tame the bulk of the time since then.With the extreme price appreciation we've seen over just the past five months, though, it's arguable this one's overdue for a price adjustment that will make the stock a little less intimidating.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9034083135,"gmtCreate":1647735326912,"gmtModify":1676534260987,"author":{"id":"4103245832785800","authorId":"4103245832785800","name":"limnorth","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Less dependence on borrowing and thus less impacted by interest rates&nbsp;","listText":"Less dependence on borrowing and thus less impacted by interest rates&nbsp;","text":"Less dependence on borrowing and thus less impacted by interest rates","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9034083135","repostId":"1141762368","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141762368","pubTimestamp":1647662201,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1141762368?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-03-19 11:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Berkshire Hathaway, Apple, and Alphabet Should Gain From Higher Rates","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141762368","media":"Barrons","summary":"With its enormous cash reserves now earning next to nothing,Berkshire Hathaway could be one of the b","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>With its enormous cash reserves now earning next to nothing,Berkshire Hathaway could be one of the bigger corporate beneficiaries of the Federal Reserve’s expected moves to raise short-term interest rates to about 2% by year-end.</p><p>The company’s earnings in 2023 could rise about 8% simply from the higher yields on its cash,<i>Barron’s</i>estimates.</p><p>Other big companies that should gain are cash-rich Apple and Alphabet (GOOGL).
