The streaming stock  got torched Thursday afternoon after it reported disappointing guidance in its fourth-quarter earnings report. Shares plunged 20% in after-hours trading.</p><p>The sell-off itself wasn&#39;t surprising. Netflix called for just 2.5 million subscriber additions in the current quarter, an unusually weak forecast for a seasonally strong quarter. Worse, it sees revenue growing just 10% to $7.9 billion, which would be its slowest growth in a decade.</p><p>If you&#39;re thinking of selling Netflix stock on the news, you&#39;re not alone. Wall Street analysts trashed the streamer following the report, with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> calling it &#34;dead money&#34; and another saying &#34;the good old days may be gone.&#34; Indeed, the days of Netflix posting breathless growth quarter after quarter are likely over, barring an unforeseen change to the business. But if you&#39;re ready to part with Netflix shares following the stock plunge and the disappointing guidance, you should be aware of two things.</p><h2>1. Shares have never been cheaper in the streaming era</h2><p>Netflix may no longer be behaving like a growth stock, but the good news is it&#39;s no longer priced like one either. Following the post-earnings dip, Netflix shares now trade at a price-to-earnings ratio of just 36. That&#39;s only modestly higher than the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>&#39;s P/E ratio of 26, and cheaper than it&#39;s ever been since 2012 when the company made streaming its primary business, leaving the DVD-by-mail operation behind.</p><p>While Netflix&#39;s growth has slowed in recent years, it&#39;s turned into a profit machine. The company just finished a year with a 21% operating margin, making earlier cries about cash burn look silly. In 2022, management actually expects a modest decline in operating margin, at 19%-20%, but that&#39;s primarily due to a stronger U.S. dollar, which is expected to shave 2 percentage points off that metric.</p><p>The company is still sticking to its long-term promise of delivering an average increase in operating margin of 3 percentage points a year, meaning by 2024 it expects to keep 28% of its revenue as operating profit. Even as revenue growth is slowing, profit margin will accelerate to make up for it. 2022 is just a noisy year because of foreign exchange and outsize growth in profit margins over the last two years.</p><h2>2. Revenue growth will improve after Q1</h2><p>Netflix didn&#39;t provide guidance beyond the first quarter, and there&#39;s no question the Q1 numbers are disappointing. With 2.5 million subscriber additions, this would be its weakest Q1 performance in at least five years, and a slowdown in revenue growth from 16% in Q4 2021 to 10% in the current quarter seems severe.</p><p>However, management seemed to imply that revenue growth would improve after the first quarter. It noted that its first-quarter content releases were weighted toward the end of the quarter with two big releases (<i>Bridgerton </i>and <i>The Adam Project</i>) slated for March, meaning the impact of those will also be felt in Q2. Additionally, the company is raising prices on all North American subscriptions with the standard U.S. package going from $13.99/month to $15.49/month.  The financial numbers should begin to benefit from that price hike in the second quarter as about 40% of its revenue still comes from North America. Netflix&#39;s last price hike in the U.S. was in October 2020 so Q1 represents a lull where the revenue numbers don&#39;t get a tailwind from higher U.S. prices. From Q2 on, revenue growth should improve to at least the mid-teens.</p><h2>The new Netflix reality</h2><p>Keeping those factors in mind, it&#39;s also worth remembering that Netflix&#39;s heady growth days are probably over. It&#39;s hard to see the stock doubling in a year as it did multiple times during the 2010s, now that its business is much more mature and revenue is only growing in the teens.</p><p>Still, considering the stock&#39;s valuation, a probable rebound in performance after the first quarter, and a number of valuable competitive advantages including its leadership in a huge growth market, the stock looks like a good bet to outperform the S&amp;P 500 over the next three to five years.</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>Thinking of Selling Netflix? 2 Things to Remember</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\">\nThinking of Selling Netflix? 2 Things to Remember\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-24 22:50 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/24/thinking-of-selling-netflix-2-things-to-remember/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investors are pressing pause on Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX).

But top media analysts have argued that this is not time to panic.</p><p>&#34;This is not over,&#34; LightShed Partners&#39; Rich Greenfield told Yahoo Finance Live this week. &#34;The reality is that we&#39;re still very early in the streaming conversion from linear TV to streaming television.&#34;</p><p>The analyst dismissed the notion that Netflix has hit some sort of a ceiling, noting that the company&#39;s roughly 222 million subscribers hasn&#39;t even touched the service.</p><p>&#34;There&#39;s probably 600 to 800 million homes with high enough quality broadband to support Netflix streaming, or any streaming service,&#34; he explained.</p><p>&#34;There&#39;s still lots of growth to go [but unfortunately] it isn&#39;t always the pretty straight line that the market would like,&#34; Greenfield added.</p><p>In 2021, the stock underperformed the S&amp;P 500 (^GSPC)<b> </b>after a blockbuster 2020 that saw streaming players soar on the wings of COVID-19 inspired &#34;stay at home&#34; trades.</p><p>Fueled by the shift to remote work and online school, subscriber numbers surged by a record 25.9 million additions in the first half of that turbulent year, before dropping off significantly as the effects that bolstered the &#34;stay at home&#34; trade ran its course.</p><p>Bank of America, which lowered its price target to $605 but reiterated its &#34;Buy&#34; rating, suggested that Netflix&#39;s earnings report could shift Wall Street&#39;s mindset moving forward.</p><blockquote>&#34;[Netflix] is actually very confident in the next several years. It&#39;s Wall Street that has no confidence...&#34;Richard Greenfield, Lightshed Partners</blockquote><p>&#34;Investor attention is likely to shift beyond a singular focus on subscribers to the potential long term profitability of these streaming businesses,&#34; the bank said in a new note published on Friday.</p><p>&#34;Streaming industry growth will be largely driven by international markets as it appears the U.S. is approaching peak penetration levels,&#34; the note continued, adding that &#34;large incumbents such as Amazon and Netflix will retain a top tier position along with Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery.&#34;</p><p>Netflix has re-focused its attention on international markets with BofA seeing &#34;continued growth in Asia&#34; as a key driver in 2022.</p><h2><b>&#39;More shots on goal than anyone else&#39;</b></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bce7b57044a7e1beea07ebf2ce9846d5\" tg-width=\"976\" tg-height=\"549\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Squid Game (Courtesy: Netflix)</p><p>Netflix has already set the tone for the upcoming year, hiking its U.S. basic plan by $1 to $9.99 per month. A standard plan now costs $15.49 (up from $13.99.), and the company&#39;s premium plan increased to $19.99 per month from $17.99.</p><p>Netflix COO Greg Peters said during its earnings call that &#34;customers are willing to pay for great entertainment,&#34; with fan favorite originals including &#34;Ozark,&#34; &#34;Bridgerton,&#34; &#34;Stranger Things&#34; and &#34;The Crown&#34; all set to make triumphant returns this year.</p><p>And compared to other streamers, LightShed&#39;s Greenfield credited Netflix with taking &#34;more shots on goal than anyone else.&#34; He cited the surprise success of &#34;Squid Game&#34; as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> recent example, with a record 142 million people watched the hit South Korean show in its first four weeks.</p><p>&#34;Nobody had &#39;Squid Game&#39; as the breakout hit that was going to fuel Q4 a year ago,&#34; the analyst said, surmising that Netflix will surprise people this year due to &#34;the amount of shots on goal that they&#39;re taking.&#34;</p><p>Still, Netflix acknowledged that competition may be &#34;affecting marginal growth some&#34; during its earnings call on Thursday night. While the company still leads in paid users — Amazon Prime Video has 175 million subscribers and Disney’s Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ have a total of 179 million subscribers — other streaming peers are quickly catching up.</p><p>Despite the competition, Greenfield reiterated that Netflix is uniquely positioned thanks, in large part, to its commitment to content.</p><p>&#34;There is certainly a fear that if Netflix doesn&#39;t have enough content to continue to grow subscribers, imagine what everyone else has to do, the analyst said. Competitors &#34;are spending far, far less than Netflix.&#34;</p><p>Greenfield argued investors should breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the streamer is continuing to spend billions of dollars on content around the globe.</p><p>&#34;If Netflix was telling you, &#39;Look, it doesn&#39;t make sense to spend more money&#39; [then] that&#39;s a really negative sign...but, instead, they&#39;re investing more in content all over the world,&#34; Greenfield explained. The company is &#34;actually very confident in the next several years. It&#39;s Wall Street that has no confidence in that and is just worried that this growth story.&#34;</p><p>Bank of America agreed that content spending will remain a focus point in the space, warning that &#34;sub-scale providers will struggle to keep up with the dramatic increases in content spending and will ultimately need to find additional partners to reach the scale required to compete on a global scale.&#34;</p></body></html>","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But top media analysts have argued that this is not time to panic.\"This is not over,\" LightShed Partners' Rich Greenfield told Yahoo Finance Live this week. \"The reality is that we're still very early in the streaming conversion from linear TV to streaming television.\"The analyst dismissed the notion that Netflix has hit some sort of a ceiling, noting that the company's roughly 222 million subscribers hasn't even touched the service.\"There's probably 600 to 800 million homes with high enough quality broadband to support Netflix streaming, or any streaming service,\" he explained.\"There's still lots of growth to go [but unfortunately] it isn't always the pretty straight line that the market would like,\" Greenfield added.In 2021, the stock underperformed the S&P 500 (^GSPC) after a blockbuster 2020 that saw streaming players soar on the wings of COVID-19 inspired \"stay at home\" trades.Fueled by the shift to remote work and online school, subscriber numbers surged by a record 25.9 million additions in the first half of that turbulent year, before dropping off significantly as the effects that bolstered the \"stay at home\" trade ran its course.Bank of America, which lowered its price target to $605 but reiterated its \"Buy\" rating, suggested that Netflix's earnings report could shift Wall Street's mindset moving forward.\"[Netflix] is actually very confident in the next several years. It's Wall Street that has no confidence...\"Richard Greenfield, Lightshed Partners\"Investor attention is likely to shift beyond a singular focus on subscribers to the potential long term profitability of these streaming businesses,\" the bank said in a new note published on Friday.\"Streaming industry growth will be largely driven by international markets as it appears the U.S. is approaching peak penetration levels,\" the note continued, adding that \"large incumbents such as Amazon and Netflix will retain a top tier position along with Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery.\"Netflix has re-focused its attention on international markets with BofA seeing \"continued growth in Asia\" as a key driver in 2022.'More shots on goal than anyone else'Squid Game (Courtesy: Netflix)Netflix has already set the tone for the upcoming year, hiking its U.S. basic plan by $1 to $9.99 per month. A standard plan now costs $15.49 (up from $13.99.), and the company's premium plan increased to $19.99 per month from $17.99.Netflix COO Greg Peters said during its earnings call that \"customers are willing to pay for great entertainment,\" with fan favorite originals including \"Ozark,\" \"Bridgerton,\" \"Stranger Things\" and \"The Crown\" all set to make triumphant returns this year.And compared to other streamers, LightShed's Greenfield credited Netflix with taking \"more shots on goal than anyone else.\" He cited the surprise success of \"Squid Game\" as one recent example, with a record 142 million people watched the hit South Korean show in its first four weeks.\"Nobody had 'Squid Game' as the breakout hit that was going to fuel Q4 a year ago,\" the analyst said, surmising that Netflix will surprise people this year due to \"the amount of shots on goal that they're taking.\"Still, Netflix acknowledged that competition may be \"affecting marginal growth some\" during its earnings call on Thursday night. While the company still leads in paid users — Amazon Prime Video has 175 million subscribers and Disney’s Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ have a total of 179 million subscribers — other streaming peers are quickly catching up.Despite the competition, Greenfield reiterated that Netflix is uniquely positioned thanks, in large part, to its commitment to content.\"There is certainly a fear that if Netflix doesn't have enough content to continue to grow subscribers, imagine what everyone else has to do, the analyst said. Competitors \"are spending far, far less than Netflix.\"Greenfield argued investors should breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the streamer is continuing to spend billions of dollars on content around the globe.\"If Netflix was telling you, 'Look, it doesn't make sense to spend more money' [then] that's a really negative sign...but, instead, they're investing more in content all over the world,\" Greenfield explained. The company is \"actually very confident in the next several years. It's Wall Street that has no confidence in that and is just worried that this growth story.\"Bank of America agreed that content spending will remain a focus point in the space, warning that \"sub-scale providers will struggle to keep up with the dramatic increases in content spending and will ultimately need to find additional partners to reach the scale required to compete on a global scale.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":867,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9007859043,"gmtCreate":1642835234531,"gmtModify":1676533751684,"author":{"id":"4104540320130490","authorId":"4104540320130490","name":"1dffbb27","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4104540320130490","authorIdStr":"4104540320130490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Could be a chance that they are oversold&nbsp;","listText":"Could be a chance that they are oversold&nbsp;","text":"Could be a chance that they are oversold","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9007859043","repostId":"2205441860","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2205441860","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642808308,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2205441860?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-22 07:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2205441860","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"I recently sold my shares of Snap, Palantir, and Bumble.

Snap</h2><p>Snap was once my favorite social media stock. It generated robust growth in daily active users and revenue, it remained a top app for teen users, and its profitability was gradually improving.</p><p>But over the past year, several red flags appeared. It vastly underestimated the impact of<b> Apple</b>&#39;s privacy update on iOS, set unrealistic growth targets at its investor day last February, and failed to outshine <b>ByteDance</b>&#39;s TikTok with Spotlight&#39;s short videos.</p><p>Snap&#39;s third-quarter numbers and fourth-quarter guidance last October strongly suggested it couldn&#39;t achieve its investor day target for 50% annual revenue growth over the next few years. But Snap didn&#39;t withdraw that guidance -- even after directly being questioned about it during its conference call -- and said it could retool its ads to overcome Apple&#39;s iOS changes.</p><p>Over the past three months, Snap&#39;s insiders still sold 22 times as many shares as they bought -- even as the stock price dropped more than 50%. That lack of confidence indicates its iOS headaches won&#39;t end anytime soon.</p><p>Snap might seem reasonably valued now at 10 times next year&#39;s sales, especially if it meets analysts&#39; estimates for 60% revenue growth in 2021 and 38% growth in 2022. Unfortunately, I think Snap could continue to struggle over the next few quarters and ultimately withdraw its 50% revenue growth guidance. When that happens, the stock will likely plummet to new lows.</p><h2>2. Palantir</h2><p>Palantir, the data analytics firm which serves the U.S. government and large enterprise customers, also has ambitious growth plans. It believes it can generate at least 30% annual revenue growth from 2021 to 2025.</p><p>At first glance, Palantir seems like a solid investment. The U.S. Army reportedly used its Gotham platform to hunt down Osama Bin Laden in 2011. That battle-hardened reputation enables it to promote its enterprise-facing Foundry platform to large companies. Its ability to gather data from disparate sources can help government agencies and companies make better data-driven decisions to streamline their operations.</p><p>But Palantir also has some glaring problems. It&#39;s deeply unprofitable but still trades at 15 times next year&#39;s sales, which leaves it highly exposed to rising inflation and higher interest rates. It&#39;s also constantly diluting its shares with big stock bonuses -- in the first nine months of 2021, its number of weighted-average shares jumped 165% year over year.</p><p>The growth of Gotham is also decelerating as the U.S. government quietly develops in-house alternatives. Enterprise customers could also gravitate toward other analytics services, such as <b>Alteryx</b> or <b>Splunk, </b>instead of its Foundry platform.</p><p>Instead of sticking with this speculative and unprofitable company, it might be smarter for investors to rotate back toward firmly profitable blue-chip tech stocks which will benefit from the same data-mining tailwinds.</p><h2>3. Bumble</h2><p>After defending Bumble for nearly a year, I finally realized that the online dating company&#39;s weaknesses outweighed its strengths. The growth of Bumble&#39;s namesake app, which lets women make the first move, is decelerating. Its secondary app, Badoo, continues to lose paid users.</p><p>Last quarter, Bumble&#39;s total number of paid users across both apps grew 20% year over year to 1.53 million, but that marked a deceleration from its 36% growth in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, <b>Match Group</b>&#39;s (NASDAQ:MTCH) total number of paying users, 64% of whom use Tinder, increased 16% year over year to 16.3 million in its latest quarter. The company actually accelerated from its 15% growth in the previous quarter.</p><p>Bumble also remains unprofitable, and it&#39;s shouldering <i>more than twice</i> as much debt as its total cash and equivalents. At the same time, it&#39;s pursuing scattershot strategies -- including opening a restaurant in New York City, selling branded apparel and products through an online store, and rebooting its BFF feature (for platonic friendships) as a vaguely defined metaverse platform.</p><p>Those plans probably won&#39;t widen Bumble&#39;s moat against Match&#39;s portfolio of over a dozen dating apps. After listening to its latest conference call, it became painfully clear that Bumble overestimated its own brand appeal while underestimating the competition.</p><p>Bumble expects its revenue to grow 31% to 32% this fiscal year, but that&#39;s only a bit faster than Match&#39;s projected revenue growth rate of 25%. Bumble&#39;s stock might seem reasonably valued at six times next year&#39;s sales, but it probably won&#39;t command a higher premium until it stabilizes its user growth and significantly narrows its net losses. Until that happens, Match will probably be the better overall investment.</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>Why I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks</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\">\nWhy I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-22 07:38 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/21/why-i-sold-these-3-high-growth-tech-stocks/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Rising inflation and higher interest rates have crushed many high-growth tech stocks over the past few months.

After listening to its latest conference call, it became painfully clear that Bumble overestimated its own brand appeal while underestimating the competition.Bumble expects its revenue to grow 31% to 32% this fiscal year, but that's only a bit faster than Match's projected revenue growth rate of 25%. Bumble's stock might seem reasonably valued at six times next year's sales, but it probably won't command a higher premium until it stabilizes its user growth and significantly narrows its net losses. Until that happens, Match will probably be the better overall investment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":293,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004182085,"gmtCreate":1642542601614,"gmtModify":1676533719564,"author":{"id":"4104540320130490","authorId":"4104540320130490","name":"1dffbb27","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4104540320130490","authorIdStr":"4104540320130490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Have to stay invested&nbsp;","listText":"Have to stay invested&nbsp;","text":"Have to stay invested","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004182085","repostId":"2204470453","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2204470453","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642509900,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2204470453?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-18 20:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"10 Top Stocks That Can Make You Richer in 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2204470453","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Building wealth is easy when you owns stakes in high-quality businesses.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>A new year brings new opportunities for investors to punch their ticket to the greatest wealth creator on the planet: the stock market.</p><p>In 2021, the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> galloped higher by 27%, with the widely followed index racking up almost six dozen record-high closing prices. But if there&#39;s one constant about Wall Street, it&#39;s that there are always great deals to be found. The following 10 top stocks, which are a mix of growth, value, and income plays, could all make you a lot richer in 2022</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\">NextEra Energy</a></h2><p>After watching growth stocks soar for the past 12 years, you&#39;re probably just itching to buy an electric utility stock, right? While the idea might sound laughable, don&#39;t discount <b>NextEra Energy</b> (NYSE:NEE), which has delivered a positive total return to shareholders in 19 of the past 20 years!</p><p>Most electric utilities grow at a low single-digit rate. But NextEra Energy has been consistently averaging high single-digit growth as a result of its aggressive investments in renewable energy. No utility in the country is currently generating more capacity from wind or solar than NextEra is. And this is unlikely to change anytime soon with the company investing an aggregate of $50 billion to $55 billion in new infrastructure projects between 2020 and 2022. It&#39;s an especially smart investment with lending rates at historic lows.</p><p>Meanwhile, the company also benefits from the cash flow transparency of its traditional utility operations (i.e., those not powered by renewable energy). Since this traditional segment is regulated by state utility commissions, it means no exposure to potentially volatile wholesale electricity pricing.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVAX\">Novavax</a></h2><p>For investors seeking growth, biotech stock <b>Novavax</b> (NASDAQ:NVAX) can be their ticket to riches in 2022.</p><p>Novavax is one of more than a dozen drugmakers working to create treatments for COVID-19. The company&#39;s vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, was stellar in two late-stage trials in 2021. The U.K. and the U.S./Mexico trials produced vaccine efficacy rates of 89.7% and 90.4%, respectively. As one of only three prominent vaccines to reach efficacy of 90%, there looks to be a clear path to Novavax becoming a major global player in the fight against COVID.</p><p>Furthermore, investors are able to buy into Novavax relatively cheaply after the company ran into a number of operational snags last year, which are now in the rearview mirror. With Novavax beginning to receive Emergency Use Authorizations around the world, and the company expected to launch NVX-Cov2373 in numerous key markets this year, it&#39;s a good bet to make investors richer.</p><h2>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a></h2><p>If you&#39;re an investor who appreciates value stocks, pharmacy chain <b>Walgreens Boots Alliance</b> (NASDAQ:WBA), with its forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of 10, is a company with all the tools needed to make you richer in 2022.</p><p>Although Walgreens was hurt by reduced foot traffic during the initial stage of the pandemic, the company&#39;s multipoint turnaround plan is already well underway and set to pay big dividends in the new year.</p><p>For example, the company was able to achieve over $2 billion in annual operating-expense reductions a year ahead of schedule. All the while, it&#39;s been aggressively spending on digitization initiatives designed to encourage consumers to purchase products online for delivery, or for pickup via drive-thru. Even though online sales represent a small sliver of total revenue, it&#39;s a segment with sustainable double-digit growth potential.</p><p>Arguably more exciting is that Walgreens has partnered with VillageMD to open roughly 600 full-service health clinics located in its stores in more than 30 U.S. markets. These clinics can funnel local residents right to Walgreens&#39; high-margin pharmacy.</p><h2>4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a></h2><p>Best-of-breed stocks are a good bet to make investors richer in 2022. That&#39;s why <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN), a leader in not just one category, but <i>two</i>, is a no-brainer buy.</p><p>Most people are familiar with Amazon because of its dominance in e-commerce. According to eMarketer, it accounted for an estimated 41.4% of all online sales in the U.S. in 2021. But it&#39;s the company&#39;s 200 million global Prime members who are really fueling the fire for this segment. The annual fees Amazon collects from its Prime users help to buoy razor-thin margins, and are what allow it to undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.</p><p>What folks might not realize is that Amazon is also the leader in cloud infrastructure services. Amazon Web Services accounts for close to a third of all global cloud infrastructure spending. The important thing to recognize here is that cloud services, along with advertising and subscriptions, are Amazon&#39;s fastest-growing and highest-margin segments. As long as these segments continue to grow rapidly, Amazon&#39;s share price and operating cash flow can head significantly higher, even if growth in e-commerce revenue slows dramatically.</p><h2>5. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PUBM\">PubMatic</a></h2><p>For small-cap stock investors who want a top stock with a higher risk/reward profile, let me introduce you to <b>PubMatic</b> (NASDAQ:PUBM).</p><p>PubMatic operates a cloud-based programmatic ad platform and is a sell-side provider. In English, this means its software handles the optimization of digital ad placement, with the company selling display space for publishers (its clients). Though publishers do offer input, such as the minimum price they&#39;d be willing to accept to sell display space, PubMatic handles everything else. The platform&#39;s machine-learning algorithms are designed to put relevant ads in front of users, while also maximizing what publishers net from advertisers.</p><p>The beauty of the PubMatic operating model is that advertising dollars are shifting more and more to digital platforms. Whereas global digital ad spend is expected to increase by an average of 10% annually through mid-decade, PubMatic&#39;s sales growth has consistently doubled up this forecast. And it&#39;s averaged an organic growth rate of at least 50% in four straight quarters. If that&#39;s not a ringing endorsement of its sell-side platform by publishers, I&#39;m not sure what is.</p><h2>6. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NLY\">Annaly Capital Management</a></h2><p>Income investors can make bank with top stocks in 2022 as well. Mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) <b>Annaly Capital Management</b> (NYSE:NLY) offers an inflation-crushing, yet sustainable, 10.9% dividend yield, and has averaged a yield of roughly 10% over the past two decades.</p><p>Put simply, mortgage REITs like Annaly aim to borrow money at lower short-term rates, which can then be used to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities. Subtracting the average borrowing rate from this long-term average yield produces what&#39;s known as net interest margin.</p><p>During the early stages of an economic recovery, it&#39;s very common for the interest rate yield curve to steepen (i.e., the gap between long-term and short-term Treasury bond yields widens). When this happens, Annaly usually sees its net interest margin rise.</p><p>What&#39;s more, Annaly almost exclusively buys agency assets that are backed by the federal government. This allows the company to prudently use leverage to its advantage.</p><h2>7. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UNH\">UnitedHealth Group</a></h2><p>Another top stock with a long history of making its shareholders money is <b>UnitedHealth Group</b> (NYSE:UNH). It&#39;s provided a positive total return for shareholders in 18 of the past 20 years.</p><p>UnitedHealth Group is probably best known for providing health insurance. While insurance isn&#39;t a fast-growing market, it does provide the company with transparent and predictable cash flow. It also doesn&#39;t hurt that insurance companies usually have strong pricing power when it comes to increasing premiums to cover their expenses. However, UnitedHealth&#39;s key operating segment isn&#39;t insurance -- it&#39;s Optum.</p><p>Optum handles pharmacy-care services, provides healthcare software, and offers other high-margin health management services for hospitals and clinics. Optum is growing much faster than the insurance segment, and is capable of much higher margins as well.</p><h2>8. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PING\">Ping Identity Holding</a></h2><p>Among double-digit growth trends, none looks safer than cybersecurity in 2022. That&#39;s why <b>Ping Identity Holding</b> (NYSE:PING) can make investors richer this year.</p><p>As its name rightly suggests, Ping&#39;s cloud-based platform focuses on identity verification for its clients. It also leans on artificial intelligence to grow smarter at recognizing and responding to potential threats over time. Ping&#39;s platform is especially useful when layered atop on-premises solutions, where it helps by continuously monitoring and approving user activity.</p><p>The great thing about cybersecurity solutions is that they offer exceptionally high margins. In Ping Identity&#39;s case, the company is shifting its client base away from term-based licenses to software-as-a-service subscriptions. This should ultimately improve customer retention rates, lift margins, and sustain the company&#39;s double-digit annual growth in recurring revenue.</p><p>At an estimated 6 times 2022 sales, Ping is one of the best values in the cybersecurity space.</p><h2>9. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCNNF\">Trulieve Cannabis</a></h2><p>Following a buzzkill of a year, U.S. marijuana stocks look poised to bounce back in 2022. U.S. multi-state operator (MSO) <b>Trulieve Cannabis</b> (OTC:TCNNF) is one such company that can lead the charge.</p><p>Unlike most MSOs, Trulieve has approached its expansion in a unique way: by primarily focusing on a single market. As of last week, the company had 160 operating dispensaries nationwide, with 112 stores in medical-marijuana-legal Florida. Saturating the Sunshine State has helped Trulieve gobble up approximately half of Florida&#39;s dried flower and oils market share. More importantly, it&#39;s kept marketing costs down, which has allowed the company to report three consecutive profitable years.</p><p>Trulieve&#39;s next chapter was written when it closed its acquisition of Harvest Health &amp; Recreation in the fourth quarter. MSO Harvest Health had a leading presence in Arizona prior to its acquisition, which clears the way for Trulieve to become the dominant player in yet another billion-dollar cannabis market.</p><h2>10. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></h2><p>The 10th and final top stock that should make investors richer in 2022 is <b>Meta Platforms</b> (NASDAQ:FB), the parent company of social media platform Facebook.</p><p>If you want to see dominance, just pull up Meta&#39;s monthly active user (MAU) count across all of its platforms. In the third quarter, 2.91 billion people visited Facebook each month, with another 670 million unique users visiting Instagram and/or WhatsApp, which Meta owns as well. These 3.58 billion MAUs represent more than half of the global adult population, and are the precise reason advertisers will pay through the nose to get their message in front of this vast array of viewers.</p><p>Beyond advertising, Meta is also a play on the metaverse, the next iteration of the internet that allows users to interact in 3D environments. The company owns the popular Oculus virtual reality devices, and invested $10 billion in metaverse-related projects last year alone.</p><p>A forward-year price-to-earnings multiple of 23 is too inexpensive for a company with a growth rate exceeding 20% and this many competitive advantages.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But if there's one constant about Wall Street, it's that there are always great deals to be found. The following 10 top stocks, which are a mix of growth, value, and income plays, could all make you a lot richer in 20221. NextEra EnergyAfter watching growth stocks soar for the past 12 years, you're probably just itching to buy an electric utility stock, right?

NovavaxFor investors seeking growth, biotech stock Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) can be their ticket to riches in 2022.Novavax is one of more than a dozen drugmakers working to create treatments for COVID-19. The company's vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, was stellar in two late-stage trials in 2021. The U.K. and the U.S./Mexico trials produced vaccine efficacy rates of 89.7% and 90.4%, respectively.

With Novavax beginning to receive Emergency Use Authorizations around the world, and the company expected to launch NVX-Cov2373 in numerous key markets this year, it's a good bet to make investors richer.3. Walgreens Boots AllianceIf you're an investor who appreciates value stocks, pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA), with its forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of 10, is a company with all the tools needed to make you richer in 2022.Although Walgreens was hurt by reduced foot traffic during the initial stage of the pandemic, the company's multipoint turnaround plan is already well underway and set to pay big dividends in the new year.For example, the company was able to achieve over $2 billion in annual operating-expense reductions a year ahead of schedule.

Even though online sales represent a small sliver of total revenue, it's a segment with sustainable double-digit growth potential.Arguably more exciting is that Walgreens has partnered with VillageMD to open roughly 600 full-service health clinics located in its stores in more than 30 U.S. markets. These clinics can funnel local residents right to Walgreens' high-margin pharmacy.4. AmazonBest-of-breed stocks are a good bet to make investors richer in 2022. That's why Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), a leader in not just one category, but two, is a no-brainer buy.Most people are familiar with Amazon because of its dominance in e-commerce. According to eMarketer, it accounted for an estimated 41.4% of all online sales in the U.S. in 2021. But it's the company's 200 million global Prime members who are really fueling the fire for this segment. The annual fees Amazon collects from its Prime users help to buoy razor-thin margins, and are what allow it to undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.What folks might not realize is that Amazon is also the leader in cloud infrastructure services. Amazon Web Services accounts for close to a third of all global cloud infrastructure spending. The important thing to recognize here is that cloud services, along with advertising and subscriptions, are Amazon's fastest-growing and highest-margin segments. As long as these segments continue to grow rapidly, Amazon's share price and operating cash flow can head significantly higher, even if growth in e-commerce revenue slows dramatically.5. PubMaticFor small-cap stock investors who want a top stock with a higher risk/reward profile, let me introduce you to PubMatic (NASDAQ:PUBM).PubMatic operates a cloud-based programmatic ad platform and is a sell-side provider. In English, this means its software handles the optimization of digital ad placement, with the company selling display space for publishers (its clients). Though publishers do offer input, such as the minimum price they'd be willing to accept to sell display space, PubMatic handles everything else. The platform's machine-learning algorithms are designed to put relevant ads in front of users, while also maximizing what publishers net from advertisers.The beauty of the PubMatic operating model is that advertising dollars are shifting more and more to digital platforms. Whereas global digital ad spend is expected to increase by an average of 10% annually through mid-decade, PubMatic's sales growth has consistently doubled up this forecast. And it's averaged an organic growth rate of at least 50% in four straight quarters. If that's not a ringing endorsement of its sell-side platform by publishers, I'm not sure what is.6. Annaly Capital ManagementIncome investors can make bank with top stocks in 2022 as well. Mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) Annaly Capital Management (NYSE:NLY) offers an inflation-crushing, yet sustainable, 10.9% dividend yield, and has averaged a yield of roughly 10% over the past two decades.Put simply, mortgage REITs like Annaly aim to borrow money at lower short-term rates, which can then be used to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities. Subtracting the average borrowing rate from this long-term average yield produces what's known as net interest margin.During the early stages of an economic recovery, it's very common for the interest rate yield curve to steepen (i.e., the gap between long-term and short-term Treasury bond yields widens). When this happens, Annaly usually sees its net interest margin rise.What's more, Annaly almost exclusively buys agency assets that are backed by the federal government. This allows the company to prudently use leverage to its advantage.7. UnitedHealth GroupAnother top stock with a long history of making its shareholders money is UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH). It's provided a positive total return for shareholders in 18 of the past 20 years.UnitedHealth Group is probably best known for providing health insurance. While insurance isn't a fast-growing market, it does provide the company with transparent and predictable cash flow. It also doesn't hurt that insurance companies usually have strong pricing power when it comes to increasing premiums to cover their expenses. However, UnitedHealth's key operating segment isn't insurance -- it's Optum.Optum handles pharmacy-care services, provides healthcare software, and offers other high-margin health management services for hospitals and clinics. Optum is growing much faster than the insurance segment, and is capable of much higher margins as well.8. Ping Identity HoldingAmong double-digit growth trends, none looks safer than cybersecurity in 2022. That's why Ping Identity Holding (NYSE:PING) can make investors richer this year.As its name rightly suggests, Ping's cloud-based platform focuses on identity verification for its clients. It also leans on artificial intelligence to grow smarter at recognizing and responding to potential threats over time. Ping's platform is especially useful when layered atop on-premises solutions, where it helps by continuously monitoring and approving user activity.The great thing about cybersecurity solutions is that they offer exceptionally high margins. In Ping Identity's case, the company is shifting its client base away from term-based licenses to software-as-a-service subscriptions. This should ultimately improve customer retention rates, lift margins, and sustain the company's double-digit annual growth in recurring revenue.At an estimated 6 times 2022 sales, Ping is one of the best values in the cybersecurity space.9. Trulieve CannabisFollowing a buzzkill of a year, U.S. marijuana stocks look poised to bounce back in 2022. U.S. multi-state operator (MSO) Trulieve Cannabis (OTC:TCNNF) is one such company that can lead the charge.Unlike most MSOs, Trulieve has approached its expansion in a unique way: by primarily focusing on a single market. As of last week, the company had 160 operating dispensaries nationwide, with 112 stores in medical-marijuana-legal Florida.

MSO Harvest Health had a leading presence in Arizona prior to its acquisition, which clears the way for Trulieve to become the dominant player in yet another billion-dollar cannabis market.10. Meta PlatformsThe 10th and final top stock that should make investors richer in 2022 is Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB), the parent company of social media platform Facebook.If you want to see dominance, just pull up Meta's monthly active user (MAU) count across all of its platforms. In the third quarter, 2.91 billion people visited Facebook each month, with another 670 million unique users visiting Instagram and/or WhatsApp, which Meta owns as well. These 3.58 billion MAUs represent more than half of the global adult population, and are the precise reason advertisers will pay through the nose to get their message in front of this vast array of viewers.Beyond advertising, Meta is also a play on the metaverse, the next iteration of the internet that allows users to interact in 3D environments. The company owns the popular Oculus virtual reality devices, and invested $10 billion in metaverse-related projects last year alone.A forward-year price-to-earnings multiple of 23 is too inexpensive for a company with a growth rate exceeding 20% and this many competitive advantages.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004186233,"gmtCreate":1642542515949,"gmtModify":1676533719580,"author":{"id":"4104540320130490","authorId":"4104540320130490","name":"1dffbb27","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4104540320130490","authorIdStr":"4104540320130490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Makes sense&nbsp;","listText":"Makes sense&nbsp;","text":"Makes sense","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004186233","repostId":"1149966362","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149966362","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1642512559,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1149966362?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-18 21:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft to acquire Activision Blizzard in all-cash deal valued at $68.7 bln","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1149966362","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Today, Microsoft Corp. announced plans to acquire Activision Blizzard Inc., a leader in game develop","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Today, Microsoft Corp. announced plans to acquire Activision Blizzard Inc., a leader in game development and interactive entertainment content publisher.

But top media analysts have argued that this is not time to panic.</p><p>&#34;This is not over,&#34; LightShed Partners&#39; Rich Greenfield told Yahoo Finance Live this week. &#34;The reality is that we&#39;re still very early in the streaming conversion from linear TV to streaming television.&#34;</p><p>The analyst dismissed the notion that Netflix has hit some sort of a ceiling, noting that the company&#39;s roughly 222 million subscribers hasn&#39;t even touched the service.</p><p>&#34;There&#39;s probably 600 to 800 million homes with high enough quality broadband to support Netflix streaming, or any streaming service,&#34; he explained.</p><p>&#34;There&#39;s still lots of growth to go [but unfortunately] it isn&#39;t always the pretty straight line that the market would like,&#34; Greenfield added.</p><p>In 2021, the stock underperformed the S&amp;P 500 (^GSPC)<b> </b>after a blockbuster 2020 that saw streaming players soar on the wings of COVID-19 inspired &#34;stay at home&#34; trades.</p><p>Fueled by the shift to remote work and online school, subscriber numbers surged by a record 25.9 million additions in the first half of that turbulent year, before dropping off significantly as the effects that bolstered the &#34;stay at home&#34; trade ran its course.</p><p>Bank of America, which lowered its price target to $605 but reiterated its &#34;Buy&#34; rating, suggested that Netflix&#39;s earnings report could shift Wall Street&#39;s mindset moving forward.</p><blockquote>&#34;[Netflix] is actually very confident in the next several years. It&#39;s Wall Street that has no confidence...&#34;Richard Greenfield, Lightshed Partners</blockquote><p>&#34;Investor attention is likely to shift beyond a singular focus on subscribers to the potential long term profitability of these streaming businesses,&#34; the bank said in a new note published on Friday.</p><p>&#34;Streaming industry growth will be largely driven by international markets as it appears the U.S. is approaching peak penetration levels,&#34; the note continued, adding that &#34;large incumbents such as Amazon and Netflix will retain a top tier position along with Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery.&#34;</p><p>Netflix has re-focused its attention on international markets with BofA seeing &#34;continued growth in Asia&#34; as a key driver in 2022.</p><h2><b>&#39;More shots on goal than anyone else&#39;</b></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bce7b57044a7e1beea07ebf2ce9846d5\" tg-width=\"976\" tg-height=\"549\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Squid Game (Courtesy: Netflix)</p><p>Netflix has already set the tone for the upcoming year, hiking its U.S. basic plan by $1 to $9.99 per month. A standard plan now costs $15.49 (up from $13.99.), and the company&#39;s premium plan increased to $19.99 per month from $17.99.</p><p>Netflix COO Greg Peters said during its earnings call that &#34;customers are willing to pay for great entertainment,&#34; with fan favorite originals including &#34;Ozark,&#34; &#34;Bridgerton,&#34; &#34;Stranger Things&#34; and &#34;The Crown&#34; all set to make triumphant returns this year.</p><p>And compared to other streamers, LightShed&#39;s Greenfield credited Netflix with taking &#34;more shots on goal than anyone else.&#34; He cited the surprise success of &#34;Squid Game&#34; as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> recent example, with a record 142 million people watched the hit South Korean show in its first four weeks.</p><p>&#34;Nobody had &#39;Squid Game&#39; as the breakout hit that was going to fuel Q4 a year ago,&#34; the analyst said, surmising that Netflix will surprise people this year due to &#34;the amount of shots on goal that they&#39;re taking.&#34;</p><p>Still, Netflix acknowledged that competition may be &#34;affecting marginal growth some&#34; during its earnings call on Thursday night. While the company still leads in paid users — Amazon Prime Video has 175 million subscribers and Disney’s Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ have a total of 179 million subscribers — other streaming peers are quickly catching up.</p><p>Despite the competition, Greenfield reiterated that Netflix is uniquely positioned thanks, in large part, to its commitment to content.</p><p>&#34;There is certainly a fear that if Netflix doesn&#39;t have enough content to continue to grow subscribers, imagine what everyone else has to do, the analyst said. Competitors &#34;are spending far, far less than Netflix.&#34;</p><p>Greenfield argued investors should breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the streamer is continuing to spend billions of dollars on content around the globe.</p><p>&#34;If Netflix was telling you, &#39;Look, it doesn&#39;t make sense to spend more money&#39; [then] that&#39;s a really negative sign...but, instead, they&#39;re investing more in content all over the world,&#34; Greenfield explained. The company is &#34;actually very confident in the next several years. It&#39;s Wall Street that has no confidence in that and is just worried that this growth story.&#34;</p><p>Bank of America agreed that content spending will remain a focus point in the space, warning that &#34;sub-scale providers will struggle to keep up with the dramatic increases in content spending and will ultimately need to find additional partners to reach the scale required to compete on a global scale.&#34;</p></body></html>","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But top media analysts have argued that this is not time to panic.\"This is not over,\" LightShed Partners' Rich Greenfield told Yahoo Finance Live this week. \"The reality is that we're still very early in the streaming conversion from linear TV to streaming television.\"The analyst dismissed the notion that Netflix has hit some sort of a ceiling, noting that the company's roughly 222 million subscribers hasn't even touched the service.\"There's probably 600 to 800 million homes with high enough quality broadband to support Netflix streaming, or any streaming service,\" he explained.\"There's still lots of growth to go [but unfortunately] it isn't always the pretty straight line that the market would like,\" Greenfield added.In 2021, the stock underperformed the S&P 500 (^GSPC) after a blockbuster 2020 that saw streaming players soar on the wings of COVID-19 inspired \"stay at home\" trades.Fueled by the shift to remote work and online school, subscriber numbers surged by a record 25.9 million additions in the first half of that turbulent year, before dropping off significantly as the effects that bolstered the \"stay at home\" trade ran its course.Bank of America, which lowered its price target to $605 but reiterated its \"Buy\" rating, suggested that Netflix's earnings report could shift Wall Street's mindset moving forward.\"[Netflix] is actually very confident in the next several years. It's Wall Street that has no confidence...\"Richard Greenfield, Lightshed Partners\"Investor attention is likely to shift beyond a singular focus on subscribers to the potential long term profitability of these streaming businesses,\" the bank said in a new note published on Friday.\"Streaming industry growth will be largely driven by international markets as it appears the U.S. is approaching peak penetration levels,\" the note continued, adding that \"large incumbents such as Amazon and Netflix will retain a top tier position along with Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery.\"Netflix has re-focused its attention on international markets with BofA seeing \"continued growth in Asia\" as a key driver in 2022.'More shots on goal than anyone else'Squid Game (Courtesy: Netflix)Netflix has already set the tone for the upcoming year, hiking its U.S. basic plan by $1 to $9.99 per month. A standard plan now costs $15.49 (up from $13.99.), and the company's premium plan increased to $19.99 per month from $17.99.Netflix COO Greg Peters said during its earnings call that \"customers are willing to pay for great entertainment,\" with fan favorite originals including \"Ozark,\" \"Bridgerton,\" \"Stranger Things\" and \"The Crown\" all set to make triumphant returns this year.And compared to other streamers, LightShed's Greenfield credited Netflix with taking \"more shots on goal than anyone else.\" He cited the surprise success of \"Squid Game\" as one recent example, with a record 142 million people watched the hit South Korean show in its first four weeks.\"Nobody had 'Squid Game' as the breakout hit that was going to fuel Q4 a year ago,\" the analyst said, surmising that Netflix will surprise people this year due to \"the amount of shots on goal that they're taking.\"Still, Netflix acknowledged that competition may be \"affecting marginal growth some\" during its earnings call on Thursday night. While the company still leads in paid users — Amazon Prime Video has 175 million subscribers and Disney’s Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ have a total of 179 million subscribers — other streaming peers are quickly catching up.Despite the competition, Greenfield reiterated that Netflix is uniquely positioned thanks, in large part, to its commitment to content.\"There is certainly a fear that if Netflix doesn't have enough content to continue to grow subscribers, imagine what everyone else has to do, the analyst said. Competitors \"are spending far, far less than Netflix.\"Greenfield argued investors should breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the streamer is continuing to spend billions of dollars on content around the globe.\"If Netflix was telling you, 'Look, it doesn't make sense to spend more money' [then] that's a really negative sign...but, instead, they're investing more in content all over the world,\" Greenfield explained. The company is \"actually very confident in the next several years. It's Wall Street that has no confidence in that and is just worried that this growth story.\"Bank of America agreed that content spending will remain a focus point in the space, warning that \"sub-scale providers will struggle to keep up with the dramatic increases in content spending and will ultimately need to find additional partners to reach the scale required to compete on a global scale.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":867,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004182085,"gmtCreate":1642542601614,"gmtModify":1676533719564,"author":{"id":"4104540320130490","authorId":"4104540320130490","name":"1dffbb27","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4104540320130490","idStr":"4104540320130490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Have to stay invested&nbsp;","listText":"Have to stay invested&nbsp;","text":"Have to stay invested","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004182085","repostId":"2204470453","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2204470453","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642509900,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2204470453?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-18 20:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"10 Top Stocks That Can Make You Richer in 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2204470453","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Building wealth is easy when you owns stakes in high-quality businesses.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>A new year brings new opportunities for investors to punch their ticket to the greatest wealth creator on the planet: the stock market.</p><p>In 2021, the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> galloped higher by 27%, with the widely followed index racking up almost six dozen record-high closing prices. But if there&#39;s one constant about Wall Street, it&#39;s that there are always great deals to be found. The following 10 top stocks, which are a mix of growth, value, and income plays, could all make you a lot richer in 2022</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\">NextEra Energy</a></h2><p>After watching growth stocks soar for the past 12 years, you&#39;re probably just itching to buy an electric utility stock, right? While the idea might sound laughable, don&#39;t discount <b>NextEra Energy</b> (NYSE:NEE), which has delivered a positive total return to shareholders in 19 of the past 20 years!</p><p>Most electric utilities grow at a low single-digit rate. But NextEra Energy has been consistently averaging high single-digit growth as a result of its aggressive investments in renewable energy. No utility in the country is currently generating more capacity from wind or solar than NextEra is. And this is unlikely to change anytime soon with the company investing an aggregate of $50 billion to $55 billion in new infrastructure projects between 2020 and 2022. It&#39;s an especially smart investment with lending rates at historic lows.</p><p>Meanwhile, the company also benefits from the cash flow transparency of its traditional utility operations (i.e., those not powered by renewable energy). Since this traditional segment is regulated by state utility commissions, it means no exposure to potentially volatile wholesale electricity pricing.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVAX\">Novavax</a></h2><p>For investors seeking growth, biotech stock <b>Novavax</b> (NASDAQ:NVAX) can be their ticket to riches in 2022.</p><p>Novavax is one of more than a dozen drugmakers working to create treatments for COVID-19. The company&#39;s vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, was stellar in two late-stage trials in 2021. The U.K. and the U.S./Mexico trials produced vaccine efficacy rates of 89.7% and 90.4%, respectively. As one of only three prominent vaccines to reach efficacy of 90%, there looks to be a clear path to Novavax becoming a major global player in the fight against COVID.</p><p>Furthermore, investors are able to buy into Novavax relatively cheaply after the company ran into a number of operational snags last year, which are now in the rearview mirror. With Novavax beginning to receive Emergency Use Authorizations around the world, and the company expected to launch NVX-Cov2373 in numerous key markets this year, it&#39;s a good bet to make investors richer.</p><h2>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a></h2><p>If you&#39;re an investor who appreciates value stocks, pharmacy chain <b>Walgreens Boots Alliance</b> (NASDAQ:WBA), with its forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of 10, is a company with all the tools needed to make you richer in 2022.</p><p>Although Walgreens was hurt by reduced foot traffic during the initial stage of the pandemic, the company&#39;s multipoint turnaround plan is already well underway and set to pay big dividends in the new year.</p><p>For example, the company was able to achieve over $2 billion in annual operating-expense reductions a year ahead of schedule. All the while, it&#39;s been aggressively spending on digitization initiatives designed to encourage consumers to purchase products online for delivery, or for pickup via drive-thru. Even though online sales represent a small sliver of total revenue, it&#39;s a segment with sustainable double-digit growth potential.</p><p>Arguably more exciting is that Walgreens has partnered with VillageMD to open roughly 600 full-service health clinics located in its stores in more than 30 U.S. markets. These clinics can funnel local residents right to Walgreens&#39; high-margin pharmacy.</p><h2>4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a></h2><p>Best-of-breed stocks are a good bet to make investors richer in 2022. That&#39;s why <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN), a leader in not just one category, but <i>two</i>, is a no-brainer buy.</p><p>Most people are familiar with Amazon because of its dominance in e-commerce. According to eMarketer, it accounted for an estimated 41.4% of all online sales in the U.S. in 2021. But it&#39;s the company&#39;s 200 million global Prime members who are really fueling the fire for this segment. The annual fees Amazon collects from its Prime users help to buoy razor-thin margins, and are what allow it to undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.</p><p>What folks might not realize is that Amazon is also the leader in cloud infrastructure services. Amazon Web Services accounts for close to a third of all global cloud infrastructure spending. The important thing to recognize here is that cloud services, along with advertising and subscriptions, are Amazon&#39;s fastest-growing and highest-margin segments. As long as these segments continue to grow rapidly, Amazon&#39;s share price and operating cash flow can head significantly higher, even if growth in e-commerce revenue slows dramatically.</p><h2>5. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PUBM\">PubMatic</a></h2><p>For small-cap stock investors who want a top stock with a higher risk/reward profile, let me introduce you to <b>PubMatic</b> (NASDAQ:PUBM).</p><p>PubMatic operates a cloud-based programmatic ad platform and is a sell-side provider. In English, this means its software handles the optimization of digital ad placement, with the company selling display space for publishers (its clients). Though publishers do offer input, such as the minimum price they&#39;d be willing to accept to sell display space, PubMatic handles everything else. The platform&#39;s machine-learning algorithms are designed to put relevant ads in front of users, while also maximizing what publishers net from advertisers.</p><p>The beauty of the PubMatic operating model is that advertising dollars are shifting more and more to digital platforms. Whereas global digital ad spend is expected to increase by an average of 10% annually through mid-decade, PubMatic&#39;s sales growth has consistently doubled up this forecast. And it&#39;s averaged an organic growth rate of at least 50% in four straight quarters. If that&#39;s not a ringing endorsement of its sell-side platform by publishers, I&#39;m not sure what is.</p><h2>6. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NLY\">Annaly Capital Management</a></h2><p>Income investors can make bank with top stocks in 2022 as well. Mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) <b>Annaly Capital Management</b> (NYSE:NLY) offers an inflation-crushing, yet sustainable, 10.9% dividend yield, and has averaged a yield of roughly 10% over the past two decades.</p><p>Put simply, mortgage REITs like Annaly aim to borrow money at lower short-term rates, which can then be used to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities. Subtracting the average borrowing rate from this long-term average yield produces what&#39;s known as net interest margin.</p><p>During the early stages of an economic recovery, it&#39;s very common for the interest rate yield curve to steepen (i.e., the gap between long-term and short-term Treasury bond yields widens). When this happens, Annaly usually sees its net interest margin rise.</p><p>What&#39;s more, Annaly almost exclusively buys agency assets that are backed by the federal government. This allows the company to prudently use leverage to its advantage.</p><h2>7. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UNH\">UnitedHealth Group</a></h2><p>Another top stock with a long history of making its shareholders money is <b>UnitedHealth Group</b> (NYSE:UNH). It&#39;s provided a positive total return for shareholders in 18 of the past 20 years.</p><p>UnitedHealth Group is probably best known for providing health insurance. While insurance isn&#39;t a fast-growing market, it does provide the company with transparent and predictable cash flow. It also doesn&#39;t hurt that insurance companies usually have strong pricing power when it comes to increasing premiums to cover their expenses. However, UnitedHealth&#39;s key operating segment isn&#39;t insurance -- it&#39;s Optum.</p><p>Optum handles pharmacy-care services, provides healthcare software, and offers other high-margin health management services for hospitals and clinics. Optum is growing much faster than the insurance segment, and is capable of much higher margins as well.</p><h2>8. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PING\">Ping Identity Holding</a></h2><p>Among double-digit growth trends, none looks safer than cybersecurity in 2022. That&#39;s why <b>Ping Identity Holding</b> (NYSE:PING) can make investors richer this year.</p><p>As its name rightly suggests, Ping&#39;s cloud-based platform focuses on identity verification for its clients. It also leans on artificial intelligence to grow smarter at recognizing and responding to potential threats over time. Ping&#39;s platform is especially useful when layered atop on-premises solutions, where it helps by continuously monitoring and approving user activity.</p><p>The great thing about cybersecurity solutions is that they offer exceptionally high margins. In Ping Identity&#39;s case, the company is shifting its client base away from term-based licenses to software-as-a-service subscriptions. This should ultimately improve customer retention rates, lift margins, and sustain the company&#39;s double-digit annual growth in recurring revenue.</p><p>At an estimated 6 times 2022 sales, Ping is one of the best values in the cybersecurity space.</p><h2>9. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCNNF\">Trulieve Cannabis</a></h2><p>Following a buzzkill of a year, U.S. marijuana stocks look poised to bounce back in 2022. U.S. multi-state operator (MSO) <b>Trulieve Cannabis</b> (OTC:TCNNF) is one such company that can lead the charge.</p><p>Unlike most MSOs, Trulieve has approached its expansion in a unique way: by primarily focusing on a single market. As of last week, the company had 160 operating dispensaries nationwide, with 112 stores in medical-marijuana-legal Florida. Saturating the Sunshine State has helped Trulieve gobble up approximately half of Florida&#39;s dried flower and oils market share. More importantly, it&#39;s kept marketing costs down, which has allowed the company to report three consecutive profitable years.</p><p>Trulieve&#39;s next chapter was written when it closed its acquisition of Harvest Health &amp; Recreation in the fourth quarter. MSO Harvest Health had a leading presence in Arizona prior to its acquisition, which clears the way for Trulieve to become the dominant player in yet another billion-dollar cannabis market.</p><h2>10. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></h2><p>The 10th and final top stock that should make investors richer in 2022 is <b>Meta Platforms</b> (NASDAQ:FB), the parent company of social media platform Facebook.</p><p>If you want to see dominance, just pull up Meta&#39;s monthly active user (MAU) count across all of its platforms. In the third quarter, 2.91 billion people visited Facebook each month, with another 670 million unique users visiting Instagram and/or WhatsApp, which Meta owns as well. These 3.58 billion MAUs represent more than half of the global adult population, and are the precise reason advertisers will pay through the nose to get their message in front of this vast array of viewers.</p><p>Beyond advertising, Meta is also a play on the metaverse, the next iteration of the internet that allows users to interact in 3D environments. The company owns the popular Oculus virtual reality devices, and invested $10 billion in metaverse-related projects last year alone.</p><p>A forward-year price-to-earnings multiple of 23 is too inexpensive for a company with a growth rate exceeding 20% and this many competitive advantages.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But if there's one constant about Wall Street, it's that there are always great deals to be found. The following 10 top stocks, which are a mix of growth, value, and income plays, could all make you a lot richer in 20221. NextEra EnergyAfter watching growth stocks soar for the past 12 years, you're probably just itching to buy an electric utility stock, right?

NovavaxFor investors seeking growth, biotech stock Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) can be their ticket to riches in 2022.Novavax is one of more than a dozen drugmakers working to create treatments for COVID-19. The company's vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, was stellar in two late-stage trials in 2021. The U.K. and the U.S./Mexico trials produced vaccine efficacy rates of 89.7% and 90.4%, respectively.

With Novavax beginning to receive Emergency Use Authorizations around the world, and the company expected to launch NVX-Cov2373 in numerous key markets this year, it's a good bet to make investors richer.3. Walgreens Boots AllianceIf you're an investor who appreciates value stocks, pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA), with its forward-year price-to-earnings ratio of 10, is a company with all the tools needed to make you richer in 2022.Although Walgreens was hurt by reduced foot traffic during the initial stage of the pandemic, the company's multipoint turnaround plan is already well underway and set to pay big dividends in the new year.For example, the company was able to achieve over $2 billion in annual operating-expense reductions a year ahead of schedule. All the while, it's been aggressively spending on digitization initiatives designed to encourage consumers to purchase products online for delivery, or for pickup via drive-thru. Even though online sales represent a small sliver of total revenue, it's a segment with sustainable double-digit growth potential.Arguably more exciting is that Walgreens has partnered with VillageMD to open roughly 600 full-service health clinics located in its stores in more than 30 U.S. markets. These clinics can funnel local residents right to Walgreens' high-margin pharmacy.4. AmazonBest-of-breed stocks are a good bet to make investors richer in 2022. That's why Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), a leader in not just one category, but two, is a no-brainer buy.Most people are familiar with Amazon because of its dominance in e-commerce. According to eMarketer, it accounted for an estimated 41.4% of all online sales in the U.S. in 2021. But it's the company's 200 million global Prime members who are really fueling the fire for this segment. The annual fees Amazon collects from its Prime users help to buoy razor-thin margins, and are what allow it to undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.What folks might not realize is that Amazon is also the leader in cloud infrastructure services. Amazon Web Services accounts for close to a third of all global cloud infrastructure spending. The important thing to recognize here is that cloud services, along with advertising and subscriptions, are Amazon's fastest-growing and highest-margin segments. As long as these segments continue to grow rapidly, Amazon's share price and operating cash flow can head significantly higher, even if growth in e-commerce revenue slows dramatically.5. PubMaticFor small-cap stock investors who want a top stock with a higher risk/reward profile, let me introduce you to PubMatic (NASDAQ:PUBM).PubMatic operates a cloud-based programmatic ad platform and is a sell-side provider. In English, this means its software handles the optimization of digital ad placement, with the company selling display space for publishers (its clients). Though publishers do offer input, such as the minimum price they'd be willing to accept to sell display space, PubMatic handles everything else. The platform's machine-learning algorithms are designed to put relevant ads in front of users, while also maximizing what publishers net from advertisers.The beauty of the PubMatic operating model is that advertising dollars are shifting more and more to digital platforms. Whereas global digital ad spend is expected to increase by an average of 10% annually through mid-decade, PubMatic's sales growth has consistently doubled up this forecast. And it's averaged an organic growth rate of at least 50% in four straight quarters. If that's not a ringing endorsement of its sell-side platform by publishers, I'm not sure what is.6. Annaly Capital ManagementIncome investors can make bank with top stocks in 2022 as well. Mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) Annaly Capital Management (NYSE:NLY) offers an inflation-crushing, yet sustainable, 10.9% dividend yield, and has averaged a yield of roughly 10% over the past two decades.Put simply, mortgage REITs like Annaly aim to borrow money at lower short-term rates, which can then be used to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities. Subtracting the average borrowing rate from this long-term average yield produces what's known as net interest margin.During the early stages of an economic recovery, it's very common for the interest rate yield curve to steepen (i.e., the gap between long-term and short-term Treasury bond yields widens). When this happens, Annaly usually sees its net interest margin rise.What's more, Annaly almost exclusively buys agency assets that are backed by the federal government. This allows the company to prudently use leverage to its advantage.7. UnitedHealth GroupAnother top stock with a long history of making its shareholders money is UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH). It's provided a positive total return for shareholders in 18 of the past 20 years.UnitedHealth Group is probably best known for providing health insurance. While insurance isn't a fast-growing market, it does provide the company with transparent and predictable cash flow. It also doesn't hurt that insurance companies usually have strong pricing power when it comes to increasing premiums to cover their expenses. However, UnitedHealth's key operating segment isn't insurance -- it's Optum.Optum handles pharmacy-care services, provides healthcare software, and offers other high-margin health management services for hospitals and clinics. Optum is growing much faster than the insurance segment, and is capable of much higher margins as well.8. Ping Identity HoldingAmong double-digit growth trends, none looks safer than cybersecurity in 2022. That's why Ping Identity Holding (NYSE:PING) can make investors richer this year.As its name rightly suggests, Ping's cloud-based platform focuses on identity verification for its clients. It also leans on artificial intelligence to grow smarter at recognizing and responding to potential threats over time. Ping's platform is especially useful when layered atop on-premises solutions, where it helps by continuously monitoring and approving user activity.The great thing about cybersecurity solutions is that they offer exceptionally high margins. In Ping Identity's case, the company is shifting its client base away from term-based licenses to software-as-a-service subscriptions. This should ultimately improve customer retention rates, lift margins, and sustain the company's double-digit annual growth in recurring revenue.At an estimated 6 times 2022 sales, Ping is one of the best values in the cybersecurity space.9. Trulieve CannabisFollowing a buzzkill of a year, U.S. marijuana stocks look poised to bounce back in 2022. U.S. multi-state operator (MSO) Trulieve Cannabis (OTC:TCNNF) is one such company that can lead the charge.Unlike most MSOs, Trulieve has approached its expansion in a unique way: by primarily focusing on a single market. As of last week, the company had 160 operating dispensaries nationwide, with 112 stores in medical-marijuana-legal Florida. Saturating the Sunshine State has helped Trulieve gobble up approximately half of Florida's dried flower and oils market share. More importantly, it's kept marketing costs down, which has allowed the company to report three consecutive profitable years.Trulieve's next chapter was written when it closed its acquisition of Harvest Health & Recreation in the fourth quarter. MSO Harvest Health had a leading presence in Arizona prior to its acquisition, which clears the way for Trulieve to become the dominant player in yet another billion-dollar cannabis market.10. Meta PlatformsThe 10th and final top stock that should make investors richer in 2022 is Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB), the parent company of social media platform Facebook.If you want to see dominance, just pull up Meta's monthly active user (MAU) count across all of its platforms. In the third quarter, 2.91 billion people visited Facebook each month, with another 670 million unique users visiting Instagram and/or WhatsApp, which Meta owns as well. These 3.58 billion MAUs represent more than half of the global adult population, and are the precise reason advertisers will pay through the nose to get their message in front of this vast array of viewers.Beyond advertising, Meta is also a play on the metaverse, the next iteration of the internet that allows users to interact in 3D environments. The company owns the popular Oculus virtual reality devices, and invested $10 billion in metaverse-related projects last year alone.A forward-year price-to-earnings multiple of 23 is too inexpensive for a company with a growth rate exceeding 20% and this many competitive advantages.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9007859043,"gmtCreate":1642835234531,"gmtModify":1676533751684,"author":{"id":"4104540320130490","authorId":"4104540320130490","name":"1dffbb27","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4104540320130490","idStr":"4104540320130490"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Could be a chance that they are oversold&nbsp;","listText":"Could be a chance that they are oversold&nbsp;","text":"Could be a chance that they are oversold","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9007859043","repostId":"2205441860","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2205441860","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642808308,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2205441860?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-22 07:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2205441860","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"I recently sold my shares of Snap, Palantir, and Bumble.

Snap</h2><p>Snap was once my favorite social media stock. It generated robust growth in daily active users and revenue, it remained a top app for teen users, and its profitability was gradually improving.</p><p>But over the past year, several red flags appeared. It vastly underestimated the impact of<b> Apple</b>&#39;s privacy update on iOS, set unrealistic growth targets at its investor day last February, and failed to outshine <b>ByteDance</b>&#39;s TikTok with Spotlight&#39;s short videos.</p><p>Snap&#39;s third-quarter numbers and fourth-quarter guidance last October strongly suggested it couldn&#39;t achieve its investor day target for 50% annual revenue growth over the next few years.

Unfortunately, I think Snap could continue to struggle over the next few quarters and ultimately withdraw its 50% revenue growth guidance. When that happens, the stock will likely plummet to new lows.</p><h2>2. Palantir</h2><p>Palantir, the data analytics firm which serves the U.S. government and large enterprise customers, also has ambitious growth plans. It believes it can generate at least 30% annual revenue growth from 2021 to 2025.</p><p>At first glance, Palantir seems like a solid investment. The U.S. Army reportedly used its Gotham platform to hunt down Osama Bin Laden in 2011.

Its ability to gather data from disparate sources can help government agencies and companies make better data-driven decisions to streamline their operations.</p><p>But Palantir also has some glaring problems. It&#39;s deeply unprofitable but still trades at 15 times next year&#39;s sales, which leaves it highly exposed to rising inflation and higher interest rates.

Bumble</h2><p>After defending Bumble for nearly a year, I finally realized that the online dating company&#39;s weaknesses outweighed its strengths. The growth of Bumble&#39;s namesake app, which lets women make the first move, is decelerating. Its secondary app, Badoo, continues to lose paid users.</p><p>Last quarter, Bumble&#39;s total number of paid users across both apps grew 20% year over year to 1.53 million, but that marked a deceleration from its 36% growth in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, <b>Match Group</b>&#39;s (NASDAQ:MTCH) total number of paying users, 64% of whom use Tinder, increased 16% year over year to 16.3 million in its latest quarter. The company actually accelerated from its 15% growth in the previous quarter.</p><p>Bumble also remains unprofitable, and it&#39;s shouldering <i>more than twice</i> as much debt as its total cash and equivalents. At the same time, it&#39;s pursuing scattershot strategies -- including opening a restaurant in New York City, selling branded apparel and products through an online store, and rebooting its BFF feature (for platonic friendships) as a vaguely defined metaverse platform.</p><p>Those plans probably won&#39;t widen Bumble&#39;s moat against Match&#39;s portfolio of over a dozen dating apps. After listening to its latest conference call, it became painfully clear that Bumble overestimated its own brand appeal while underestimating the competition.</p><p>Bumble expects its revenue to grow 31% to 32% this fiscal year, but that&#39;s only a bit faster than Match&#39;s projected revenue growth rate of 25%. Bumble&#39;s stock might seem reasonably valued at six times next year&#39;s sales, but it probably won&#39;t command a higher premium until it stabilizes its user growth and significantly narrows its net losses. Until that happens, Match will probably be the better overall investment.</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>Why I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks</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\">\nWhy I Sold These 3 High-Growth Tech Stocks\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-22 07:38 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/21/why-i-sold-these-3-high-growth-tech-stocks/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Rising inflation and higher interest rates have crushed many high-growth tech stocks over the past few months.

The streaming stock  got torched Thursday afternoon after it reported disappointing guidance in its fourth-quarter earnings report. Shares plunged 20% in after-hours trading.</p><p>The sell-off itself wasn&#39;t surprising. Netflix called for just 2.5 million subscriber additions in the current quarter, an unusually weak forecast for a seasonally strong quarter. Worse, it sees revenue growing just 10% to $7.9 billion, which would be its slowest growth in a decade.</p><p>If you&#39;re thinking of selling Netflix stock on the news, you&#39;re not alone. Wall Street analysts trashed the streamer following the report, with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> calling it &#34;dead money&#34; and another saying &#34;the good old days may be gone.&#34; Indeed, the days of Netflix posting breathless growth quarter after quarter are likely over, barring an unforeseen change to the business. But if you&#39;re ready to part with Netflix shares following the stock plunge and the disappointing guidance, you should be aware of two things.</p><h2>1. Shares have never been cheaper in the streaming era</h2><p>Netflix may no longer be behaving like a growth stock, but the good news is it&#39;s no longer priced like one either. Following the post-earnings dip, Netflix shares now trade at a price-to-earnings ratio of just 36. That&#39;s only modestly higher than the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>&#39;s P/E ratio of 26, and cheaper than it&#39;s ever been since 2012 when the company made streaming its primary business, leaving the DVD-by-mail operation behind.</p><p>While Netflix&#39;s growth has slowed in recent years, it&#39;s turned into a profit machine. The company just finished a year with a 21% operating margin, making earlier cries about cash burn look silly. In 2022, management actually expects a modest decline in operating margin, at 19%-20%, but that&#39;s primarily due to a stronger U.S. dollar, which is expected to shave 2 percentage points off that metric.</p><p>The company is still sticking to its long-term promise of delivering an average increase in operating margin of 3 percentage points a year, meaning by 2024 it expects to keep 28% of its revenue as operating profit. Even as revenue growth is slowing, profit margin will accelerate to make up for it. 2022 is just a noisy year because of foreign exchange and outsize growth in profit margins over the last two years.</p><h2>2. Revenue growth will improve after Q1</h2><p>Netflix didn&#39;t provide guidance beyond the first quarter, and there&#39;s no question the Q1 numbers are disappointing. With 2.5 million subscriber additions, this would be its weakest Q1 performance in at least five years, and a slowdown in revenue growth from 16% in Q4 2021 to 10% in the current quarter seems severe.</p><p>However, management seemed to imply that revenue growth would improve after the first quarter. It noted that its first-quarter content releases were weighted toward the end of the quarter with two big releases (<i>Bridgerton </i>and <i>The Adam Project</i>) slated for March, meaning the impact of those will also be felt in Q2. Additionally, the company is raising prices on all North American subscriptions with the standard U.S. package going from $13.99/month to $15.49/month.  The financial numbers should begin to benefit from that price hike in the second quarter as about 40% of its revenue still comes from North America. Netflix&#39;s last price hike in the U.S. was in October 2020 so Q1 represents a lull where the revenue numbers don&#39;t get a tailwind from higher U.S. prices. From Q2 on, revenue growth should improve to at least the mid-teens.</p><h2>The new Netflix reality</h2><p>Keeping those factors in mind, it&#39;s also worth remembering that Netflix&#39;s heady growth days are probably over. It&#39;s hard to see the stock doubling in a year as it did multiple times during the 2010s, now that its business is much more mature and revenue is only growing in the teens.</p><p>Still, considering the stock&#39;s valuation, a probable rebound in performance after the first quarter, and a number of valuable competitive advantages including its leadership in a huge growth market, the stock looks like a good bet to outperform the S&amp;P 500 over the next three to five years.</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>Thinking of Selling Netflix? 2 Things to Remember</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\">\nThinking of Selling Netflix? 2 Things to Remember\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-24 22:50 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/24/thinking-of-selling-netflix-2-things-to-remember/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investors are pressing pause on Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX).
