index is trading firmly in bear market territory with a year-to-date loss of 30%, so the financial results of the largest technology companies are extremely important to watch at the moment.</p><p>Earnings season for the quarter ended Sept. 30 is now underway, and Google&#39;s trillion-dollar parent, Alphabet, released its results last week. It revealed a clear slowdown in the most fundamental parts of its business, but the fast-growing Google Cloud was a bright spot once again.</p><p>Investors have sent Alphabet stock down 33% in the last 12 months, but here&#39;s why they should look beyond the company&#39;s recent struggles and focus on the long term -- there are no shortage of positives.</p><h2>The long and the shorts of YouTube</h2><p>YouTube is the world&#39;s largest online video platform, and in September, it actually led TV streaming viewership in the U.S. for the first time ever. But YouTube generates revenue through advertising, and since the global economy is currently grappling with a slowdown from high inflation and rising interest rates, businesses have trimmed their marketing budgets.</p><p>As a result, YouTube&#39;s revenue shrank by 1.8% year over year in the third quarter. But it&#39;s not alone in this struggle, because social media companies <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNAP\">Snap</a> also reported weaker-than-expected results for the period.</p><p>Here&#39;s the thing, though. YouTube released Shorts two years ago to compete with ByteDance&#39;s TikTok, the short-form video king. Shorts is already succeeding having amassed 1.5 billion monthly active users with 30 billion daily views on average, placing it on par with its fierce new rival based on publicly available data.</p><p>Shorts is accounting for more of users&#39; time spent on YouTube, but short-form content monetizes at a lower rate than longer videos, which is creating a revenue headwind for Alphabet. Put simply, users prefer Shorts, but the format makes less money for the company. Alphabet is exploring new strategies to fix that problem, including a revenue-sharing arrangement with creators from 2023 that will encourage more premium content (which, in turn, is more attractive for advertisers).</p><p>In addition, social shopping could be a major revenue opportunity for YouTube overall. Creators will be able to tag products in their videos, which will enable viewers to make purchases while they&#39;re watching content. To summarize, investors shouldn&#39;t expect YouTube&#39;s recent financial slowdown to last forever.</p><h2>Google Cloud shines amid slowing Google Search revenue</h2><p>Google remains Alphabet&#39;s flagship brand and Search is still its core driver of advertising revenue. But for that reason, it&#39;s suffering from similar issues to YouTube on account of the broader economic slowdown.</p><p>Search generated $39.5 billion in revenue during Q3, a modest increase of 4.2% year over year. Alphabet&#39;s CFO, Ruth Porat, remarked that the slow growth rate was partly attributable to an incredibly strong comparable (last year&#39;s result). That&#39;s true -- in Q3 2021, Search generated a whopping 44% growth and that would&#39;ve been very difficult to replicate amid the economic weakness at the moment.</p><p>But one area of Alphabet&#39;s business that outperformed was Google Cloud, with sales soaring by 37%. It marked an acceleration from its second-quarter growth rate of 35%, and while it only made up about one-tenth of Alphabet&#39;s total Q3 revenue, the cloud industry is on track to be a $1.5 trillion opportunity by 2030, so it&#39;s an important area of focus for the company.</p><p>As more businesses migrate their operations online, they will require more of the services provided by Google Cloud, including data storage and analysis, software development tools, cybersecurity, plus a range of artificial intelligence and machine learning applications. Thus, Google Cloud will become increasingly critical to Alphabet&#39;s growth over time.</p><h2>Why Alphabet stock is a buy right now</h2><p>Alphabet stock fell by more than 9% the day after the company released its Q3 earnings report, and it has now lost 33% of its value in the last 12 months.</p><p>Alphabet has posted earnings per share of $5.03 over the last four quarters, placing its stock at a price-to-earnings ratio of just 18.7. That&#39;s a 19% discount to the Nasdaq-100 index, which trades at a ratio of 23. It implies Alphabet stock will have to rise by approximately 23% just to trade in line with its peers in the technology sector.</p><p>The caveat is that Alphabet&#39;s earnings have shrunk in every quarter of 2022 so far (year over year), so investors have crushed the stock&#39;s valuation based on the premise that the company will grow much more slowly going forward. But that&#39;s no certainty. Alphabet has a suite of incredible businesses -- Google consistently maintains a market share above 90% in the search industry, Google Cloud is growing rapidly, and YouTube has an incredible opportunity in its new Shorts format for both advertising and social shopping.</p><p>This year has been tough, but history shows that economic weakness doesn&#39;t last forever. When the economy bounces back, investors might be glad they bought Alphabet stock right here on the dip.</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>1 Trillion-Dollar Growth Stock Down 33% to Buy Right Now</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\">\n1 Trillion-Dollar Growth Stock Down 33% to Buy Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-01 23:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/31/1-trillion-dollar-growth-stock-down-33-to-buy-righ/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The Nasdaq-100 index is trading firmly in bear market territory with a year-to-date loss of 30%, so the financial results of the largest technology companies are extremely important to watch at the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/31/1-trillion-dollar-growth-stock-down-33-to-buy-righ/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GOOGL":"谷歌A","GOOG":"谷歌"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/31/1-trillion-dollar-growth-stock-down-33-to-buy-righ/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2279384648","content_text":"The Nasdaq-100 index is trading firmly in bear market territory with a year-to-date loss of 30%, so the financial results of the largest technology companies are extremely important to watch at the moment.Earnings season for the quarter ended Sept. 30 is now underway, and Google's trillion-dollar parent, Alphabet, released its results last week.

At the time, many viewed the purchase as one of the most significant events in Bitcoin&#39;s short history. The $1.5 billion purchase of Bitcoin caused a frenzy of buyers to pile in and drive the price of Bitcoin up nearly 20% in less than 24 hours.</p><p>Tesla and Musk are now back in the spotlight for the same Bitcoin bought over a year ago. In a quarterly earnings call, Musk disclosed that Tesla sold 75% of its Bitcoin holdings.

The sale allowed Tesla to secure cash it badly needed and avoided the worst of the losses when Bitcoin fell below $19,000 this July. Had Tesla not sold when it did, the company would have lost about $11,000 per Bitcoin or roughly $346 million. Likely due to some good timing and a little bit of luck, the company only reported a loss of $106 million by selling at $30,000 instead of around $19,000.</p><p>Tesla is the second-largest electric car company in the world, only recently losing the title as No. 1 this July. The lockdowns caused some of its largest factories in cities like Shanghai to shut down for over a month this spring. This type of hit to production forced Tesla to find new means of cash. Without selling the Bitcoin, the most recent earnings report would have likely been one of the worst it had in quite some time. During normal production, Tesla usually sells roughly 60,000 vehicles in China per month. Despite selling a record number of cars in June, roughly 70,000 fewer cars were sold in the second quarter compared to the first quarter.</p><p>By selling its Bitcoin, Tesla was able to bolster its cash reserves and lessen the blow from lockdown-affected factories in China. Ultimately, it might have been the right move to ensure that any further impacts from the lockdowns were minimal and wouldn&#39;t damage Tesla&#39;s bottom line for Q2. It seems as though the decision was an attempt to minimize the damage that would have inevitably shown up on Tesla&#39;s earnings report. While production numbers took a hit, Tesla was able to offset this with an increased amount of cash on its balance sheets. While it&#39;s not always ideal to sell an asset for short term reasons, it seems to have worked in this case -- especially considering that after the earnings announcement, Tesla&#39;s stock was up about 10%.</p><p></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 Did Elon Musk Sell Tesla's Bitcoin?</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 Did Elon Musk Sell Tesla's Bitcoin?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-28 20:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/07/28/why-did-elon-musk-sell-teslas-bitcoin/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Back in February 2021, Elon Musk made headlines when he announced on Twitter (TWTR 1.30%) that his electric car company, Tesla (TSLA 6.17%), would buy Bitcoin (BTC 8.79%) as an alternative to cash.

Accordingly, I’m of the view that more volatility is on the horizon.That’s not taking anything away from today’s catalysts. Rather, I’m just trying to be realistic with this rally. Let’s see if this rally can hold as we head into the second-half of this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":249,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9049888236,"gmtCreate":1655774616625,"gmtModify":1676535702387,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9049888236","repostId":"1178406043","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1178406043","pubTimestamp":1655772271,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1178406043?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-06-21 08:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple May Have a Secret Weapon With Its Arcade Gaming Service","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1178406043","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"It's no secret that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has made its services business its next big area of growth.W","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>It&#39;s no secret that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has made its services business its next big area of growth.</p><p>With almost $20B in revenue in Apple&#39;s (AAPL) fiscal second quarter, services trailed only the iPhone, and its $50.6B in sales during the period.

Table 1 shows the first five ranked companies. I don&#39;t include Rivian Automotive (RIVN), which would top the list by accumulating $10.7 billion in funding. Rivian&#39;s shares are down 65.95% since the IPO in 11/21, and the company continues to struggle. Layoffs at Rivian started in late July 2022 as the company races to cut costs amid a challenging economic climate and pressure to increase production. It delivered 1,227 vehicles in the first quarter and reported 4,467 deliveries in Q2. Rivian is targeting production of 25,000 vehicles this year, half of its initial production guidance for 2022.</p><p>Table 1 shows significant variations in financial metrics among the five companies. TSLA shows positive TTM revenue, Net Income, and Gross Profit. All the startups reported TTM Revenue, but only Li Auto (LI) reported a positive Net Income and Gross Profit.</p><p>Lucid Group was the top fund raiser on this list. Lucid delivered 360 EVs, helping to account for $57.7 million in revenue in Q1 2022, but revised its 2022 production volume outlook to a range of 6K to 7K vehicles following the release of itsQ2 results. Guidance earlier in the year was for production volume of 12K to 14K vehicles.</p><p>China&#39;s NIO (NIO) delivered 25,059 electric cars in Q2, which is slightly above the guidance of 23,000-25,000. So far this year, NIO globally sold 50,827 electric cars. But NIO reported a loss from operations was RMB2,445.1 million (US$383.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 162.5% from the fourth quarter of 2020 and an increase of 146.5% from the third quarter of 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dfe93875be1bf07e575523460045fcdf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p>Chart 2 shows a similar story based on one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 1.

However, declining investor appetite for pre-revenue companies has taken the focus away from companies like Fisker.</p><p>That will change as the Fisker Ocean is set to start production in November 2022 and sold exclusively through the Fisker app. According to the company, reservations for the Ocean electric SUV surpassed 50,000, a significant rise from the 40,000 preorders announced in early April.

EV startups Nikola (NKLA), Lordstown Motors (RIDE), Canoo (GOEV), Faraday Future Intelligent Electric (FFIE), Fisker (FSR), and Lucid Group (LCID) all went public through SPAC deals over the last two years.\"SPACs go public at $10 per share, a price point that serves as a simple benchmark for how those stocks have been received. Of these SPAC companies, only the share price of Lucid Group is above its IPO price at $18.25, as shown in Chart 1.YChartsChart 1Is There a Doctor in the House?In Tables 1-3, I break down the current crop of EV startups by level of funding from all sources and compare each to Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). Table 1 shows the first five ranked companies. I don't include Rivian Automotive (RIVN), which would top the list by accumulating $10.7 billion in funding. Rivian's shares are down 65.95% since the IPO in 11/21, and the company continues to struggle. Layoffs at Rivian started in late July 2022 as the company races to cut costs amid a challenging economic climate and pressure to increase production. It delivered 1,227 vehicles in the first quarter and reported 4,467 deliveries in Q2. Rivian is targeting production of 25,000 vehicles this year, half of its initial production guidance for 2022.Table 1 shows significant variations in financial metrics among the five companies. TSLA shows positive TTM revenue, Net Income, and Gross Profit. All the startups reported TTM Revenue, but only Li Auto (LI) reported a positive Net Income and Gross Profit.Lucid Group was the top fund raiser on this list. Lucid delivered 360 EVs, helping to account for $57.7 million in revenue in Q1 2022, but revised its 2022 production volume outlook to a range of 6K to 7K vehicles following the release of itsQ2 results. Guidance earlier in the year was for production volume of 12K to 14K vehicles.China's NIO (NIO) delivered 25,059 electric cars in Q2, which is slightly above the guidance of 23,000-25,000. So far this year, NIO globally sold 50,827 electric cars. But NIO reported a loss from operations was RMB2,445.1 million (US$383.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 162.5% from the fourth quarter of 2020 and an increase of 146.5% from the third quarter of 2021.Seeking AlphaChart 2 shows a similar story based on one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 1. TSLA is the only company showing positive growth at 29.72% as of the close on July 29, 2022. LI share price was -1.65%. NIO share price is down 55.84% showing investors the COVID situation in China remains fluid and EV shares in general remain under a cloud amid rising interest rates and fears of a global recession.YChartsChart 2Table 2 shows TSLA compared with startups ranked #5-8 based on level of funding. Only Fisker reported TTM revenues of just $96,000. Wall Street was initially attracted to its asset-light business model based on contract manufacturing. However, declining investor appetite for pre-revenue companies has taken the focus away from companies like Fisker.That will change as the Fisker Ocean is set to start production in November 2022 and sold exclusively through the Fisker app. According to the company, reservations for the Ocean electric SUV surpassed 50,000, a significant rise from the 40,000 preorders announced in early April. The Ocean with the base Sport trim priced at $37,499 before incentives.Seeking AlphaChart 3 shows one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 2. Again, TSLA is the only company showing positive growth at 29.72% as of the close on July 29, 2022. FSR share price is down 40.57%. The stock is trading below its IPO price.YChartsChart 3Table 3 shows the remaining EV startups, but funding has not been disclosed. Of the four startups, only Ayro (AYRO) showed positive TTM revenue of just $2.92M but net income was -$32.01M. Ayro has a different business model than the other companies included in this article as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles for closed campus mobility, urban and community transport, local on-demand and last mile delivery, and government use. The company provides four-wheeled purpose-built electric vehicles for universities, business and medical campuses, last mile delivery services, and food service providers.Seeking AlphaChart 4 shows one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 3. Again, TSLA is the only company showing positive growth at 29.72% as of the close on July 29, 2022. All others have exhibited large negative double-digit share performance.YChartsChart 4Tesla's PerformanceTesla reported a mixed Q2 earnings report on in its Q2 earnings call on July 20, 2022. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $2.27 vs. $1.81 expected. Revenue missed at $16.93 billion vs. $17.1 billion expected. Chart 5 shows quarterly performance through Q2 2022.YChartsChart 5In Q2 2022, TSLA achieved record production rates across the company, producing more than 258,000 vehicles and delivered 254,695 vehicles. That was below consensus estimates of 266,795 vehicles, and down from 310,048 in 1Q 2022, as the company faced a continuation of manufacturing challenges related to shutdowns, global supply chain disruptions, labor shortages and logistics and other complications, which limited its ability to consistently run our factories at full capacity.While the Shanghai factory was shut down fully and then partially for the majority of Q2, TSLA ended the quarter with a record monthly production level. Recent equipment upgrades will enable the company to continue to increase its production rate further.The Fremont Factory made a record number of vehicles in Q2. I see opportunities for further production rate improvements. The next generation of 4680 battery cell machinery has been installed in Texas and is in the process of commissioning. Factory output in Texas continues to grow.Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg reached an important milestone of over 1,000 cars produced in a single week while achieving positive gross margin during the quarter. Tesla expect the production rate to continue improving through the rest of the year.Table 4 shows U.S. EV shipments for Q2 2021 and Q2 2022 by model. In Q2, Tesla was the top-selling luxury brand in the U.S., outpacing all the established names: Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, as seen in Table 4.EV sales as a percentage of total automobile sales. In Q2, EV sales accounted for 5.6% of the total market, an increase from 5.3% in Q1. EV share in Q2 2021 was 2.7%. In Q2 2021, there were 19 EV models for sale in the U.S. One year later, the number jumped to 33.Table 4 - Source: Cox AutomotiveCox AutomotiveHowever, as new EV models continue to enter the market, Tesla's share of the EV segment is dropping. Last quarter, it fell to 66.1%, down from 74.6% in Q1 2022, as shown in Table 5. Tesla shipments by model are also shown. Importantly, Tesla is losing market share to traditional automobile companies with EV entrants, rather than the EV startups discussed above.Cox AutomotiveInvestor TakeawayI discussed in my July 27, 2022, Seeking Alpha article entitled \"MOKE + EV Technology Group: The Cost And Value Of 'Brand Equity' In The EV Automotive Value Chain\" that Brand Equity would be critical to growth of a startup. The advantages of Brand Equity, which gives a product competitive edge in the marketplace include:Developing a greater market shareCharging a price premiumEase of RecognitionDifferentiation from the competitionBrand equity can be defined as the additional value that a recognizable brand name adds to a product offering, and is created as customers becoming increasingly and more personally aware of a brand and build a connection with it.None of the EV startups detailed in Tables 1-3 are on the radar in sales in the U.S., Europe, and China. Indeed, the only competition for Tesla in the U.S. and Europe are established automobile companies with EV offerings. China is different with little competition coming from traditional non-Chinese automobile manufacturers with EV offerings, yet Tesla is still within the Top 10 of sales through June 2022.In Chart 7, I show share price for the five EV companies (including TSLA) listed in Table 1, and show EPS for the past one-year period. Indeed, only Tesla has a positive EPS.YChartsChart 7The point of this article is to expand on my thesis in my previous article the importance of Brand Equity. Tesla has achieved Brand Equity, as I showed in that article. But without it, EV startups are struggling. The competition to Tesla outside China is coming from established automobile makers with EV offerings, not these startups.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":324,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9072292600,"gmtCreate":1658034387900,"gmtModify":1676536096822,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9072292600","repostId":"2251341847","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2251341847","pubTimestamp":1658023335,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2251341847?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-07-17 10:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Butchered Tech Stocks to Buy and Hold","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2251341847","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"These three butchered tech stocks to buy offer huge upside for investors that can wisely look past t","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>These three butchered tech stocks to buy offer huge upside for investors that can wisely look past threats of a recession.</li><li><b>ARK Innovation <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a></b> (<b><u>ARKK</u></b>) offers deeply discounted, high-growth tech stock opportunities.</li><li><b>Unity Software</b> (<b><u>U</u></b>) is a market leader in gaming with positive cash flow.

Combined with ARKK’s much deeper Covid-19 bear market, some climatic volume and a neutralized stochastics, the opportunity to purchase deeply discounted growth stock leadership beckons.Unity Software (U)Source: Charts by TradingViewUnity Software (NYSE:U) is a top software applications outfit that operates an interactive real-time content platform. Unity is best known within the gaming market with a roughly 60% to 70% market share of the mobile gaming market due to the platform’s ease of use, features and functionalities for content developers.And if that success is any indication, moves into e-commerce and the metaverse, as well as architecture, design and engineering should continue to bolster the company’s positive free cash flow, and help put U stock on a path toward long-term profitability. All of this should result in a smart return for investors.With a correction of about 85% since November, Unity’s “smallish,” large-cap valuation of just $13.40 billion and shares consolidating tightly near all-time-lows over the past several weeks with bullish indications from volume and stochastics, this battered tech stock to buy and hold is an even more attractive purchase today.Shopify (SHOP)Source: Charts by TradingViewShopify’s (NYSE:SHOP) shares have been victimized by inflation, interest rate hikes, at-risk consumers and supply chain bottlenecks. Year-to-date, SHOP has shed 77%. Since last November’s split-adjusted peak of $176.29, it has lost nearly 83% of its value.Despite the obvious bearish commitment from investors, Shopify not only commands a $38.5 billion valuation, but SHOP also remains the market’s undisputed leader in this e-commerce space. Ultimately, this tech stock isn’t some fly-by-night, one-trick pony operation.Right now, shares can be shopped at their Covid-19 low. Investors can tap into this low all while the company enjoys a historically cheap sales multiple, solid free cashflow and a strong secular trend for digital-based retail growth, despite the pending “Recession!” headlines.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":116,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9076063127,"gmtCreate":1657761294969,"gmtModify":1676536057763,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9076063127","repostId":"1178530446","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1178530446","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":1657760361,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1178530446?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-07-14 08:59","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Stocks To Watch: ST Engineering, ComfortDelGro, Keppel Infrastructure Trust","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1178530446","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"ST Engineering：DEFENCE and engineering group ST Engineering is venturing into the data centre coolin","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/S63.SI\">ST Engineering</a>：DEFENCE and engineering group ST Engineering is venturing into the data centre cooling market with the launch of a cooling technology that supposedly helps operators in tropical climates achieve 20 per cent in energy savings, which translates to about S$104 per kilowatt-hour of heat load every year.</p><p>Using a data centre with a power load of 20 MW as an example, a 20 per cent reduction in energy consumption translates to 14 gigawatt-hour of electricity savings annually — enough to power 3,200 4-room public housing flats over a year.</p><p>Assuming an electricity tariff rate of S$0.299 per kilowatt-hour, this could mean cost savings of up to S$4 million a year, said representatives of ST Engineering at the launch of the new cooling system on Wednesday.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/C52.SI\">ComfortDelGro</a>：MAINBOARD-LISTED ComfortDelGro Corporation is acquiring Irish coach operator GoBus for 12 million euros (S$17 million), a move that will catapult it to be the third-largest inter-city coach operator in the country.</p><p>Acquiring through its wholly-owned unit ComfortDelGro Irish Citylink, the Singapore transport behemoth will get a fleet of 31 buses and 3 inter-city coach routes, namely, the Galway-Dublin Express, the Cork-Dublin Express and the Galway-Ballina Express.</p><p>These routes have been experiencing “strong” commuter demand in recent months, with the Cork-Dublin route already operating at pre-pandemic levels, ComfortDelGro said in its regulatory filing on Wednesday.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/A7RU.SI\">Keppel Infrastructure Trust</a>: Keppel Corporation and Keppel Infrastructure Trust (KIT), on July 13, announced that they will be jointly investing in a European onshore wind energy portfolio.</p><p>The transaction is KIT’s first investment in the renewable energy sector.

The jobs report was good. Consumers are still spending and, other than an inflation pinch from rising prices, they don’t feel any recession yet.</p><h2><b>Bearish Earnings Forecasts</b></h2><p>Meanwhile, some companies are having layoffs and hiring freezes. July earnings will probably be as expected, but most of the forecasts will have recession caveats. Those July forecasts will include challenges like the higher dollar, supply disruptions, higher costs, lower revenues, reduced margins and rising interest rates. All of these are having a negative effect on future earnings. Some companies will decline giving any forecast in this disruptive environment. They are looking out long term at a coming recession where things are unpredictable.</p><h2><b>Is $364 The Bottom?</b></h2><p>Is all of this already priced into the SPY? Probably, but what is not yet priced into the SPY is how low are PEs going and how low are forecasted earnings going. That will determine where this bear market bottom is. On the chart, you can see our line is drawn at $341. There is no bottom in place yet, and we can see that on the monthly SPY chart shown below. We will draw a blue, vertical line after the bottom is in place. The signal will tell us.</p><h2><b>Where Is The Bull Market Signal?</b></h2><p>At the bottom of the chart is the trigger signal for a bull or bear market. The red vertical line is the bear market signal. We are waiting for the blue vertical line to appear marking the start of the next bull market, probably sometime in 2023.</p><p>On this trigger signal at the bottom of the chart, you can see that this bear market is worse than the last pandemic bear. The signal has broken below the dotted line and is in oversold, deep Supply territory. It can stay oversold for months. We will draw the blue vertical bullish signal when it turns up, with the black line breaking above the red line as it did at the last bottom. We don’t think $364 is the bottom of this bear market.</p><h2><b>When Does This Bear Market End?</b></h2><p>You can see this bear market has started its 7th month and still no bottoming formation. There is no reversal of the falling signals shown on this chart. There is no buy signal, yet, on this chart.</p><p>At the top of the chart is Chaikin Money Flow. I knew Marc Chaikin when he developed this signal. It needs to turn up as it did in the last bear market bottom.</p><p>Below money flow is another popular signal, the MACD. It is two signals actually. We need to see the black line breaking above the red line as we saw when the last bear market ended. The bar chart just below this crossover signal is a leading indicator to the crossover Buy signal we are waiting for, and you can see that this leading indicator for the next bull market is still bearish.</p><h2><b>Conclusion</b></h2><p>This bear market will end when the signals on our monthly chart turn up. They are still pointed down and that is why we don’t think $364 is the bottom. Even the leading indicator signal has not even started improving. The SPY is enjoying a little, technical bounce, reflecting the jobs report and July earnings as expected. That jobs report means that the Fed has to raise interest rates 75 basis points at the end of July. That, along with all the caveats on future earnings forecasts, tells us that this bear market is targeting a test of $341. We don’t think this bear bottoms until October. After July earnings, the SPY will start thinking about the coming recession again, and that doesn’t make for a bull market move. A drop in inflation, an increase in unemployment or an end to the war would potentially change the timeline.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0582dd4d2d8d3035d063d1b49ab0319c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"853\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>SPY Looking For A Bottom (StockCharts.com)</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>SPY: Bottom Is On The Radar Screen (Technical Analysis)</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\">\nSPY: Bottom Is On The Radar Screen (Technical Analysis)\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-11 23:26 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522572-spy-bottom-on-radar><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Here come July earnings reports and the market (NYSEARCA:SPY) is enjoying a little technical bounce, targeting $404 and anticipating that earnings will be as expected.

On the chart, you can see our line is drawn at $341. There is no bottom in place yet, and we can see that on the monthly SPY chart shown below. We will draw a blue, vertical line after the bottom is in place. The signal will tell us.Where Is The Bull Market Signal?At the bottom of the chart is the trigger signal for a bull or bear market. The red vertical line is the bear market signal. We are waiting for the blue vertical line to appear marking the start of the next bull market, probably sometime in 2023.On this trigger signal at the bottom of the chart, you can see that this bear market is worse than the last pandemic bear. The signal has broken below the dotted line and is in oversold, deep Supply territory. It can stay oversold for months. We will draw the blue vertical bullish signal when it turns up, with the black line breaking above the red line as it did at the last bottom. We don’t think $364 is the bottom of this bear market.When Does This Bear Market End?You can see this bear market has started its 7th month and still no bottoming formation. There is no reversal of the falling signals shown on this chart. There is no buy signal, yet, on this chart.At the top of the chart is Chaikin Money Flow. I knew Marc Chaikin when he developed this signal. It needs to turn up as it did in the last bear market bottom.Below money flow is another popular signal, the MACD. It is two signals actually. We need to see the black line breaking above the red line as we saw when the last bear market ended. The bar chart just below this crossover signal is a leading indicator to the crossover Buy signal we are waiting for, and you can see that this leading indicator for the next bull market is still bearish.ConclusionThis bear market will end when the signals on our monthly chart turn up. They are still pointed down and that is why we don’t think $364 is the bottom. Even the leading indicator signal has not even started improving. The SPY is enjoying a little, technical bounce, reflecting the jobs report and July earnings as expected. That jobs report means that the Fed has to raise interest rates 75 basis points at the end of July. That, along with all the caveats on future earnings forecasts, tells us that this bear market is targeting a test of $341. We don’t think this bear bottoms until October. After July earnings, the SPY will start thinking about the coming recession again, and that doesn’t make for a bull market move. A drop in inflation, an increase in unemployment or an end to the war would potentially change the timeline.SPY Looking For A Bottom

follows”.</p><p>That’s why it’s a good idea to focus on how the business performs rather than being fixated on share price movements.</p><p>And when tough times come along, as they inevitably do,

owns and operates the Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) integrated resort (IR).</p><p>The IR comprises six luxury hotels, a world-class convention centre, a theme park (Universal Studios Singapore), a casino, and the S.E.A Aquarium and Adventure Cove waterpark.</p><p>Genting released its fiscal 2022’s third quarter (3Q2022) business review recently.</p><p>The group saw a sharp surge in both revenue and net profit as more tourists streamed into Singapore after borders reopened.</p><p>Total revenue surged from S$251.5 million to S$519.7 million, led by increases in both gaming and non-gaming revenue.</p><p>In particular, non-gaming revenue soared 144.3% year on year to S$137.3 million.</p><p>Net profit more than doubled year on year from S$60.7 million to S$135.8 million and was also three times higher than 2Q2022’s net profit of S$44.1 million.</p><p>Looking ahead, Genting is optimistic as the recovery has yet to return to pre-pandemic levels.</p><p>Its RWS 2.0 expansion project is also proceeding smoothly, with the construction of a new attraction, Minion Land, progressing well and the remake of Festive Hotel set to complete by 1Q2023.</p><p><b>Venture Corporation Limited (SGX: V03)</b></p><p>Venture is an electronic services provider with a portfolio of more than 5,000 products and solutions and 12,000 staff employed worldwide.</p><p>For 3Q2022, the group reported a 32.8% year on year jump in revenue to S$1 billion.</p><p>Net profit surged by 26.4% year on year to S$97.4 million.</p><p>Venture did warn, however, of potential headwinds in the science and technology market if geopolitical tensions and other headwinds persist.</p><p>The technology group plans to diversify its capabilities and strengths to continue to remain relevant to its clients.</p><p><b>Keppel Corporation Limited (SGX: BN4)</b></p><p>Keppel Corporation is a conglomerate with four core divisions – energy and environment, urban development, connectivity, and asset management.</p><p>Revenue for the group grew 24% year on year to S$6.8 billion for the first nine months of 2022 (9M2022).</p><p>Net profit also improved over the same period.</p><p>In addition,

Buffett, arguably one of the best investors in the world, has said that “if the business does well, the stock eventually follows”.That’s why it’s a good idea to focus on how the business performs rather than being fixated on share price movements.And when tough times come along, as they inevitably do, sticking with tried-and-tested blue-chip companies allows you to have a good night’s sleep.Such stocks can not only boast a great track record of weathering crises but also pay out a decent dividend to boot.By observing which of these businesses are doing well, you can be assured that their share prices should eventually rise in tandem, bestowing you with capital gains.Here are five blue-chip businesses that announced a jump in their net profit in their latest earnings report.Genting Singapore Limited (SGX: G13)Genting Singapore owns and operates the Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) integrated resort (IR).The IR comprises six luxury hotels, a world-class convention centre, a theme park (Universal Studios Singapore), a casino, and the S.E.A Aquarium and Adventure Cove waterpark.Genting released its fiscal 2022’s third quarter (3Q2022) business review recently.The group saw a sharp surge in both revenue and net profit as more tourists streamed into Singapore after borders reopened.Total revenue surged from S$251.5 million to S$519.7 million, led by increases in both gaming and non-gaming revenue.In particular, non-gaming revenue soared 144.3% year on year to S$137.3 million.Net profit more than doubled year on year from S$60.7 million to S$135.8 million and was also three times higher than 2Q2022’s net profit of S$44.1 million.Looking ahead, Genting is optimistic as the recovery has yet to return to pre-pandemic levels.Its RWS 2.0 expansion project is also proceeding smoothly, with the construction of a new attraction, Minion Land, progressing well and the remake of Festive Hotel set to complete by 1Q2023.Venture Corporation Limited (SGX: V03)Venture is an electronic services provider with a portfolio of more than 5,000 products and solutions and 12,000 staff employed worldwide.For 3Q2022, the group reported a 32.8% year on year jump in revenue to S$1 billion.Net profit surged by 26.4% year on year to S$97.4 million.Venture did warn, however, of potential headwinds in the science and technology market if geopolitical tensions and other headwinds persist.The technology group plans to diversify its capabilities and strengths to continue to remain relevant to its clients.Keppel Corporation Limited (SGX: BN4)Keppel Corporation is a conglomerate with four core divisions – energy and environment, urban development, connectivity, and asset management.Revenue for the group grew 24% year on year to S$6.8 billion for the first nine months of 2022 (9M2022).Net profit also improved over the same period.In addition, Keppel also announced asset monetisation totalling S$4.4 billion and is well on track to hit its S$5 billion target before the end of next year.As of end-September, the group reported its highest net order book since 2007 of S$11.6 billion.Wilmar International Limited (SGX: F34)Wilmar is an integrated agribusiness group with over 500 manufacturing plants along with an extensive distribution network spanning 50 countries and regions.For 3Q2022, Wilmar reported a 10% year on year improvement in revenue to US$18.9 billion.Its core net profit rose 38.2% year on year to US$796.7 million.Sales volume increased by 3.2% and 8.5% year on year for its Food Products and Feed and Industrial Products divisions, respectively.The group also churned out a significantly higher operating cash flow of US$3.5 billion, up 68.2% from a year ago.Wilmar remains sanguine on its business outlook, noting that while global conditions remain tough, it is confident that its integrated business model can help to overcome these challenges.United Overseas Bank Ltd (SGX: U11)United Overseas Bank Ltd, or UOB, is one of Singapore’s three big local banks.The lender reported a stellar set of earnings for 3Q2022, posting a record net profit of S$1.4 billion, up 34% year on year.Net interest margin for the quarter surged to 1.95%, up sharply from the prior year’s 1.55%.UOB acquired Citigroup’s(NYSE: C) consumer banking business in four countries, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, for almost S$5 billion back in January.Higher interest rates should also continue to boost its net interest margin, leading to higher net interest income and profits.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":83,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9985979563,"gmtCreate":1667305087752,"gmtModify":1676537894777,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9985979563","repostId":"2279384648","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":273,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9902626240,"gmtCreate":1659691192881,"gmtModify":1704886247811,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9902626240","repostId":"2256920998","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2256920998","pubTimestamp":1659689993,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2256920998?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-05

Let’s take a look at what’s driving the stock price movements.Shares of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Nio (NIO) have recently been on a roller coaster ride. On one hand, growth in deliveries is pushing up the stock; on the other hand, the global recession is punching down on the stock.Though shares now trade at a third of their all-time highs of $60, as seen early last year, they have recovered in the past two months from their 52-week lows of $11.67 and are now trading at around $20.The Good News for NIONIO shares took a downward spiral due to strict COVID-19 lockdowns in Shanghai. However, now, with the easing of the lockdown situation and the resulting resumption of production, shares have bounced back.For June, NIO reported a whopping 60% year-over-year jump in deliveries to 12,961. Further, sequentially, deliveries posted a record 84.5% growth compared to only 7,024 reported in May.Additionally, EV stocks got some push from the news that the Chinese government plans to support EV makers in China by providing subsidies and tax breaks.The Bad News for NIOEV stocks took a beating due to impending fears of a global recession as well as higher interest rates.Investors were concerned that Nio may be in need of additional capital like its peers, and may resort to stock offerings that could dilute the value of the shares.In late June, the stock took a massive hit after the release of a hostile report from Grizzly Research LLC, which accused the company of inflating its revenues and profits.In response, Nio stated that the report was misleading and inaccurate. Nio committed to creating an independent committee to investigate the concerns raised in the report.Analysts Are Bullish about NIOOverall, the stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 10 unanimous Buys. The average Nio price target of $33.66 implies 66.63% upside potential from current levels.High Smart Score for NioNIO scores a 9 out of 10 on TipRanks’ Smart Score rating system, indicating that the stock has strong potential to outperform market expectations.Concluding ThoughtsNio deliveries number in June shows that perhaps, the worst is behind the company with the resumption of production in Shanghai, which suffered due to the COVID-19 situation and the long period of lockdowns earlier this year.The Chinese government support could act as a strong catalyst for the EV maker, assuming NIO management is able to put recent investors’ concerns to rest.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":64,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9076420461,"gmtCreate":1657893742253,"gmtModify":1676536078212,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I","listText":"I","text":"I","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9076420461","repostId":"1135014649","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1135014649","pubTimestamp":1657898944,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1135014649?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-07-15 23:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Generational Buy Opportunity","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1135014649","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryPalantir will be able to mitigate the downside of various geopolitical shocks that we’re curr","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Palantir will be able to mitigate the downside of various geopolitical shocks that we’re currently experiencing.</li><li>Recent awards by various agencies of the DoD signal that Palantir will continue to be one of the major software solution providers to the U.S. military-industrial complex.</li><li>As revenues continue to grow while the stock-based compensation decreases, there’s no reason to be bearish on PLTR.</li></ul><p>Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:PLTR) is one of the few public companies that are destined to successfully deal with the ongoing geopolitical shocks that we are currently experiencing. The company has a healthy balance sheet, no major exposure to emerging markets, and a handful list of clients from the public and private sectors, who are eager to optimize their processes to improve the efficiency of their organizations and cut down costs. In addition, thanks to its close connections to the Pentagon, the company will likely benefit from the increased military spending of the U.S. and its European allies, as the latest NATO Summit in Madrid showed the willingness of member states to substantially increase their defense budgets. Also, Palantir’s space and geospatial intelligence solutions are likely going to attract new customers given its successes on the Ukrainian battlefield.</p><p>Therefore, as investors are preparing to hear Palantir’s Q2 earnings results in August, now is a good time to go through some latest developments that will positively affect the company’s performance in the long run, and discuss its intrinsic value in the current environment to solidify the bullish case for the stock.</p><p><b>New Global Order</b></p><p>In the past, I have already extensively covered Palantir’s governmental contracts, which account for the majority of the company’s revenues. However, the latest NATO summit in Madrid shows that the company will be able to increase its market share in the defense business even more all thanks to its unique AI-based defense software solutions that are built on Palantir’s Gotham platform.</p><p>The major highlight of the summit was the adoption of NATO’s new Strategic Concept document that outlines the security policy of all member states for the following years. While the document itself is long and full of different details about various aspects of a new security policy, I want to focus on several main things from the final declaration that was adopted at the end of the summit, as they’ll have direct positive implications for Palantir’s business. During the summit, NATO member states agreed on the following:</p><blockquote>We will build on our newly enhanced posture, and significantly strengthen our deterrence and defense for the long term to ensure the security and defense of all Allies. We will do so in line with our 360-degree approach, across the land, air, maritime, cyber, and space domains, and against all threats and challenges.</blockquote><p>Palantir has been very active in cyber and space domains. In one of my previous articles, I have already explained how the company was able to track the movement of Russian troops near the Ukrainian border prior to the invasion. What I want to add to that is that Palantir was and is able to do so thanks to its equity investment in a geospatial intelligence business BlackSky (BKSY), which is able to track important targets on the battlefield that are later destroyed by artillery and rocket strikes. Just recently, BlackSky entered into a 10-year contract with the National Reconnaissance Office that’s worth up to $1 billion. This will make it possible for the company to increase its market share in the geospatial intelligence market and help Palantir to recoup its investment as well.</p><p>In addition to this, here’s another important statement that was made by NATO member states:</p><blockquote>We are establishing a Defense Innovation Accelerator and launching a multinational Innovation Fund to bring together governments, the private sector, and academia to bolster our technological edge.</blockquote><p>At this stage, Palantir is one of the most popular AI-based software solution providers to governmental agencies, as the U.S. Army, Navy, Space Command, CIA, and a handful of other departments are its clients. While in the past there was pessimism about the company’s governmental business due to the lack of new contracts at the beginning of this year, the sentiment in recent months has completely changed. NATO’s commitment to improving its technological capabilities to tackle the ongoing challenges is a positive long-term sign for Palantir as well.</p><p>Just in June, Palantir won a $53.89 million contract modification from the U.S. Space Command and also was selected to develop a prototype for the U.S. Army&#39;s TITAN program that’s aimed at tracking threats with the help of AI and machine learning. Given the fact that it’s not the first nor last contract from both the U.S. Army and Space Command, it’s safe to assume that Palantir will continue to establish a stronger presence in the AI-based defense software solution market, especially as it’s also actively expanding its operations in Europe to work with more NATO members.</p><p>Finally, another important highlight from the summit is the following statement:</p><blockquote>We will build on the progress made to ensure that increased national defense expenditures and NATO common funding will be commensurate with the challenges of a more contested security order. Investing in our defense and key capabilities is essential.</blockquote><p>In the past, there was a reluctance to increase defense budgets, especially among European NATO states, due to internal strife. However, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed this. If the military spending in the U.S. was declining since 2011, started to rebound only a few years ago, and reached 2011 levels in 2020, then in the following decade, we should see an unprecedented increase in the DoD budget. The latest forecasts show that the U.S. alone will be spending nearly $1 trillion a year by 2032 on defense, which is a positive thing for Palantir, which heavily relies on governmental contracts to grow its business. Add to this an increased spending of other NATO states and you’ll see that Palantir’s growth story is more alive than ever.</p><p><b>Numbers Supplement Palantir&#39;s Growth Story</b></p><p>Palantir not only has a growth story going for it but it also has solid fundamentals and a decent upside. The upcoming Q2 earnings results will come out in August, and even though there were nine downward revisions due to the volatile macro environment, the consensus revenue growth rate for the quarter still stands at nearly 26% Y/Y. Considering that a recession is already around the corner, having a double-digit revenue growth rate is pretty impressive in the current environment.</p><p>Another positive thing is that the company is already profitable on a non-GAAP basis and is also close to profitability on a GAAP basis. In 2022, theexpectations are that earnings will continue to improve and the EPS for the year will be at $0.16, up nearly 25% Y/Y. What’s also important to note is that Palantir has been generating positive FCF at least since its direct listing in 2020, as in 2020 itsunleveredFCF was $273.8 million, while in 2021 it was $476.7 million.</p><p>When it comes to valuations, there has been a lot of speculation about Palantir’s fair value due to its excessive stock-based compensation policy that leads to a net loss on an income statement even though the business has outstanding gross margins of over 70% and generates positive FCF. That’s why I decided to create a DCF model in which I’ll try to figure out the business’s fair value and what shareholders should expect in the future.</p><p>For the revenue and EBIT estimates, I took the street consensus for the following years, which shows that advisory firms expect the company to show a positive EBIT in 2022 and onward after years of losses. The tax rate in the model stands at 21% of EBIT, which equals the basic U.S. corporate tax rate since the United States is Palantir&#39;s single biggest market. The D&amp;A and capital expenditures in the model are at a rate similar to the previous years, while the change in NWC in the forecasted periods is positive since it’s also positive in the previous years as well.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc038da28a7b8199492fcbd4f9891057\" tg-width=\"909\" tg-height=\"456\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Palantir&#39;s DCF Model(Seeking Alpha, Street Forecasts, Author&#39;s Estimates)</p><p>The WACC in the model stands at 8.5%, while the terminal growth rate stands at 3%. One of the main upsides of Palantir is that it has no long-term debt or short-term borrowings, which will make it easier for the company to navigate through the current volatile environment as it’s going to be relatively unaffected by higher interest rates.</p><p>Another major upside is the fact that Palantir also has $2.52 billion in cash reserves to weather the upcoming financial storm. Thanks to a decent amount of liquidity and no debt, the equity value in the model stands at $22.75 billion which equals to a fair value of $11.17 per share, which represents an upside of nearly 20% from the current market price.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af0bcdbe2e8cd2bc585adeeabcfdfb6c\" tg-width=\"707\" tg-height=\"155\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Palantir&#39;s DCF Calculations(Author&#39;s Estimates)</p><p>My DCF price target is also similar to the consensus street target of $11.26 per share:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8baa983d11fb8bdec1c6fbb52084b2f9\" tg-width=\"881\" tg-height=\"301\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Palantir&#39;s Consensus Price Target(Seeking Alpha)</p><p>It made sense for the model to show a similar fair value to the street consensus since the top-line expectations were in-line with the street estimates. However, it still shows a decent upside from the current market price and there are also several things worth discussing to understand why there’s even more room for growth for Palantir’s stock in the long run.</p><p>First of all, the company itself aims to grow at an annual revenue rate of 30% or above through 2025, which is above the growth rate in my model. If it manages to do so this and next year thanks to the increased NATO defense spending discussed above, then the intrinsic value already is going to be higher than in the model.</p><p>In addition, the stock-based compensation policy is the only thing that prevents Palantir from trading at higher multiples. Let’s not forget that the company has a gross profit margin ofnearly80% due to the small cost of goods sold mostly thanks to the fact that the main thing that it provides is software solutions that don’t require a lot of expenses on Palantir’s side. The moment you decrease stock-based compensations – your EBIT starts to greatly appreciate and change the whole earnings inputs in the model.</p><p>The good news is that in recent years Palantir has been significantly decreasing its stock-based compensation expenses. If in 2020 the stock-based compensationwas$1.27 billion, then in 2021 it was only $778 million, down 38.5% Y/Y. If in Q1’21 the stock-based compensation was $193 million, then in Q1’22 it was only $149 million, down 22.8% Y/Y.</p><p>This trend of strong top-line growth and the stock-based compensation decrease is one of the main reasons why I continue to be so bullish on Palantir and plan to hold my long position for a long time. Once stock-based compensation decreases even more – my model that already shows a decent upside will become too conservative given the changes to EBIT that were discussed above. This will lead to an even greater fair value and will likely push the stock to higher levels in the future.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>The only main risk to Palantir’s bullish story is a prolonged recession. Since Palantir is a growth company that generated a net loss in recent years due to the excessive stock-based compensation policy – its stock has already suffered a major depreciation. If we’ll see a &#34;lost decade&#34; scenario where the economy will show little to no growth for years, then there’s a risk that Palantir’s commercial side of the business will take a hit. As a result, even if the governmental business continues to grow due to the increased defense spending, Palantir’s commercial customers could terminate their contracts to cut costs, which will negatively affect the company’s performance and decrease its forecasted top-line growth forecast.</p><p>However, we shouldn’t forget that the goal of Palantir’s software is to help its clients to better optimize their business processes to cut costs and minimize the downside of supply chain disruptions. That’s why even in the current environment Palantir is able to strike major commercial deals with legacy automakers such as Stellantis (STLA) to accelerate the business’s digital transformation. Therefore, it’s likely that while a prolonged recession will hurt Palantir, it will bring only a short-term negative effect, as it’s in the best interests of its clients to minimize the downsides caused by a volatile macro environment by implementing software solutions that improve the overall efficiency of their businesses.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p><p>Palantir’s Q2 results will come out next month and even though the street revised the earnings forecasts, the company has everything going for it to continue to show outstanding results and grow at a double-digit rate. The latest NATO summit in Madrid shows that Western governments are serious about tackling the global challenges by increasing their military spending and improving their technical capabilities. As a result, it’s safe to say that Palantir will be able to benefit from the changing geopolitical landscape thanks to its unique AI-based defense software solutions. Add to this the fact that stock-based compensations decrease while the top-line continues to grow at an impressive rate and you have the company that’s worth investing in for the long haul.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Generational Buy Opportunity</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\">\nPalantir: Generational Buy Opportunity\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-15 23:29 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4523305-palantir-generational-buy-opportunity><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir will be able to mitigate the downside of various geopolitical shocks that we’re currently experiencing.Recent awards by various agencies of the DoD signal that Palantir will continue ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4523305-palantir-generational-buy-opportunity\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4523305-palantir-generational-buy-opportunity","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1135014649","content_text":"SummaryPalantir will be able to mitigate the downside of various geopolitical shocks that we’re currently experiencing.Recent awards by various agencies of the DoD signal that Palantir will continue to be one of the major software solution providers to the U.S. military-industrial complex.As revenues continue to grow while the stock-based compensation decreases, there’s no reason to be bearish on PLTR.Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:PLTR) is one of the few public companies that are destined to successfully deal with the ongoing geopolitical shocks that we are currently experiencing. The company has a healthy balance sheet, no major exposure to emerging markets, and a handful list of clients from the public and private sectors, who are eager to optimize their processes to improve the efficiency of their organizations and cut down costs. In addition, thanks to its close connections to the Pentagon, the company will likely benefit from the increased military spending of the U.S. and its European allies, as the latest NATO Summit in Madrid showed the willingness of member states to substantially increase their defense budgets. Also, Palantir’s space and geospatial intelligence solutions are likely going to attract new customers given its successes on the Ukrainian battlefield.Therefore, as investors are preparing to hear Palantir’s Q2 earnings results in August, now is a good time to go through some latest developments that will positively affect the company’s performance in the long run, and discuss its intrinsic value in the current environment to solidify the bullish case for the stock.New Global OrderIn the past, I have already extensively covered Palantir’s governmental contracts, which account for the majority of the company’s revenues. However, the latest NATO summit in Madrid shows that the company will be able to increase its market share in the defense business even more all thanks to its unique AI-based defense software solutions that are built on Palantir’s Gotham platform.The major highlight of the summit was the adoption of NATO’s new Strategic Concept document that outlines the security policy of all member states for the following years. While the document itself is long and full of different details about various aspects of a new security policy, I want to focus on several main things from the final declaration that was adopted at the end of the summit, as they’ll have direct positive implications for Palantir’s business. During the summit, NATO member states agreed on the following:We will build on our newly enhanced posture, and significantly strengthen our deterrence and defense for the long term to ensure the security and defense of all Allies. We will do so in line with our 360-degree approach, across the land, air, maritime, cyber, and space domains, and against all threats and challenges.Palantir has been very active in cyber and space domains. In one of my previous articles, I have already explained how the company was able to track the movement of Russian troops near the Ukrainian border prior to the invasion. What I want to add to that is that Palantir was and is able to do so thanks to its equity investment in a geospatial intelligence business BlackSky (BKSY), which is able to track important targets on the battlefield that are later destroyed by artillery and rocket strikes. Just recently, BlackSky entered into a 10-year contract with the National Reconnaissance Office that’s worth up to $1 billion. This will make it possible for the company to increase its market share in the geospatial intelligence market and help Palantir to recoup its investment as well.In addition to this, here’s another important statement that was made by NATO member states:We are establishing a Defense Innovation Accelerator and launching a multinational Innovation Fund to bring together governments, the private sector, and academia to bolster our technological edge.At this stage, Palantir is one of the most popular AI-based software solution providers to governmental agencies, as the U.S. Army, Navy, Space Command, CIA, and a handful of other departments are its clients. While in the past there was pessimism about the company’s governmental business due to the lack of new contracts at the beginning of this year, the sentiment in recent months has completely changed. NATO’s commitment to improving its technological capabilities to tackle the ongoing challenges is a positive long-term sign for Palantir as well.Just in June, Palantir won a $53.89 million contract modification from the U.S. Space Command and also was selected to develop a prototype for the U.S. Army's TITAN program that’s aimed at tracking threats with the help of AI and machine learning. Given the fact that it’s not the first nor last contract from both the U.S. Army and Space Command, it’s safe to assume that Palantir will continue to establish a stronger presence in the AI-based defense software solution market, especially as it’s also actively expanding its operations in Europe to work with more NATO members.Finally, another important highlight from the summit is the following statement:We will build on the progress made to ensure that increased national defense expenditures and NATO common funding will be commensurate with the challenges of a more contested security order. Investing in our defense and key capabilities is essential.In the past, there was a reluctance to increase defense budgets, especially among European NATO states, due to internal strife. However, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed this. If the military spending in the U.S. was declining since 2011, started to rebound only a few years ago, and reached 2011 levels in 2020, then in the following decade, we should see an unprecedented increase in the DoD budget. The latest forecasts show that the U.S. alone will be spending nearly $1 trillion a year by 2032 on defense, which is a positive thing for Palantir, which heavily relies on governmental contracts to grow its business. Add to this an increased spending of other NATO states and you’ll see that Palantir’s growth story is more alive than ever.Numbers Supplement Palantir's Growth StoryPalantir not only has a growth story going for it but it also has solid fundamentals and a decent upside. The upcoming Q2 earnings results will come out in August, and even though there were nine downward revisions due to the volatile macro environment, the consensus revenue growth rate for the quarter still stands at nearly 26% Y/Y. Considering that a recession is already around the corner, having a double-digit revenue growth rate is pretty impressive in the current environment.Another positive thing is that the company is already profitable on a non-GAAP basis and is also close to profitability on a GAAP basis. In 2022, theexpectations are that earnings will continue to improve and the EPS for the year will be at $0.16, up nearly 25% Y/Y. What’s also important to note is that Palantir has been generating positive FCF at least since its direct listing in 2020, as in 2020 itsunleveredFCF was $273.8 million, while in 2021 it was $476.7 million.When it comes to valuations, there has been a lot of speculation about Palantir’s fair value due to its excessive stock-based compensation policy that leads to a net loss on an income statement even though the business has outstanding gross margins of over 70% and generates positive FCF. That’s why I decided to create a DCF model in which I’ll try to figure out the business’s fair value and what shareholders should expect in the future.For the revenue and EBIT estimates, I took the street consensus for the following years, which shows that advisory firms expect the company to show a positive EBIT in 2022 and onward after years of losses. The tax rate in the model stands at 21% of EBIT, which equals the basic U.S. corporate tax rate since the United States is Palantir's single biggest market. The D&A and capital expenditures in the model are at a rate similar to the previous years, while the change in NWC in the forecasted periods is positive since it’s also positive in the previous years as well.Palantir's DCF Model(Seeking Alpha, Street Forecasts, Author's Estimates)The WACC in the model stands at 8.5%, while the terminal growth rate stands at 3%. One of the main upsides of Palantir is that it has no long-term debt or short-term borrowings, which will make it easier for the company to navigate through the current volatile environment as it’s going to be relatively unaffected by higher interest rates.Another major upside is the fact that Palantir also has $2.52 billion in cash reserves to weather the upcoming financial storm. Thanks to a decent amount of liquidity and no debt, the equity value in the model stands at $22.75 billion which equals to a fair value of $11.17 per share, which represents an upside of nearly 20% from the current market price.Palantir's DCF Calculations(Author's Estimates)My DCF price target is also similar to the consensus street target of $11.26 per share:Palantir's Consensus Price Target(Seeking Alpha)It made sense for the model to show a similar fair value to the street consensus since the top-line expectations were in-line with the street estimates. However, it still shows a decent upside from the current market price and there are also several things worth discussing to understand why there’s even more room for growth for Palantir’s stock in the long run.First of all, the company itself aims to grow at an annual revenue rate of 30% or above through 2025, which is above the growth rate in my model. If it manages to do so this and next year thanks to the increased NATO defense spending discussed above, then the intrinsic value already is going to be higher than in the model.In addition, the stock-based compensation policy is the only thing that prevents Palantir from trading at higher multiples. Let’s not forget that the company has a gross profit margin ofnearly80% due to the small cost of goods sold mostly thanks to the fact that the main thing that it provides is software solutions that don’t require a lot of expenses on Palantir’s side. The moment you decrease stock-based compensations – your EBIT starts to greatly appreciate and change the whole earnings inputs in the model.The good news is that in recent years Palantir has been significantly decreasing its stock-based compensation expenses. If in 2020 the stock-based compensationwas$1.27 billion, then in 2021 it was only $778 million, down 38.5% Y/Y. If in Q1’21 the stock-based compensation was $193 million, then in Q1’22 it was only $149 million, down 22.8% Y/Y.This trend of strong top-line growth and the stock-based compensation decrease is one of the main reasons why I continue to be so bullish on Palantir and plan to hold my long position for a long time. Once stock-based compensation decreases even more – my model that already shows a decent upside will become too conservative given the changes to EBIT that were discussed above. This will lead to an even greater fair value and will likely push the stock to higher levels in the future.RisksThe only main risk to Palantir’s bullish story is a prolonged recession. Since Palantir is a growth company that generated a net loss in recent years due to the excessive stock-based compensation policy – its stock has already suffered a major depreciation. If we’ll see a \"lost decade\" scenario where the economy will show little to no growth for years, then there’s a risk that Palantir’s commercial side of the business will take a hit. As a result, even if the governmental business continues to grow due to the increased defense spending, Palantir’s commercial customers could terminate their contracts to cut costs, which will negatively affect the company’s performance and decrease its forecasted top-line growth forecast.However, we shouldn’t forget that the goal of Palantir’s software is to help its clients to better optimize their business processes to cut costs and minimize the downside of supply chain disruptions. That’s why even in the current environment Palantir is able to strike major commercial deals with legacy automakers such as Stellantis (STLA) to accelerate the business’s digital transformation. Therefore, it’s likely that while a prolonged recession will hurt Palantir, it will bring only a short-term negative effect, as it’s in the best interests of its clients to minimize the downsides caused by a volatile macro environment by implementing software solutions that improve the overall efficiency of their businesses.The Bottom LinePalantir’s Q2 results will come out next month and even though the street revised the earnings forecasts, the company has everything going for it to continue to show outstanding results and grow at a double-digit rate. The latest NATO summit in Madrid shows that Western governments are serious about tackling the global challenges by increasing their military spending and improving their technical capabilities. As a result, it’s safe to say that Palantir will be able to benefit from the changing geopolitical landscape thanks to its unique AI-based defense software solutions. Add to this the fact that stock-based compensations decrease while the top-line continues to grow at an impressive rate and you have the company that’s worth investing in for the long haul.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":175,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9049888236,"gmtCreate":1655774616625,"gmtModify":1676535702387,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9049888236","repostId":"1178406043","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9903539879,"gmtCreate":1659051996191,"gmtModify":1676536249213,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Orb","listText":"Orb","text":"Orb","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9903539879","repostId":"2254340502","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2254340502","pubTimestamp":1659012873,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2254340502?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-07-28 20:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Did Elon Musk Sell Tesla's Bitcoin?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2254340502","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The self-proclaimed \"Techno King\" of Tesla sold Bitcoin for reasons that actually make sense.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p></p><p>Back in February 2021, Elon Musk made headlines when he announced on <b>Twitter </b>(TWTR 1.30%) that his electric car company, <b>Tesla</b> (TSLA 6.17%), would buy <b>Bitcoin </b>(BTC 8.79%) as an alternative to cash. At the time, many viewed the purchase as one of the most significant events in Bitcoin&#39;s short history. The $1.5 billion purchase of Bitcoin caused a frenzy of buyers to pile in and drive the price of Bitcoin up nearly 20% in less than 24 hours.</p><p>Tesla and Musk are now back in the spotlight for the same Bitcoin bought over a year ago. In a quarterly earnings call, Musk disclosed that Tesla sold 75% of its Bitcoin holdings. He cited that the company faced a need for liquidity amid uncertainty in its Chinese operations due to extended COVID-19 lockdowns. With supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, the company needed cash on hand to ensure the disruption in production didn&#39;t have as large of an impact.</p><p>The announcement caused Bitcoin to dip slightly, but it regained those losses quickly after Musk further clarified his comments. He mentioned that the sale &#34;should not be taken as some verdict on Bitcoin&#34; and that the company would look to increase Bitcoin holdings in the future.</p><p>As one of the most prolific entrepreneurs and richest men in the world, any purchase or sale of Bitcoin draws considerable attention from the public. Even more attention is brought about when a sale occurs. However, it seems as though the decision to sell the Bitcoin was potentially the right move for the company.</p><h2>The real reasons behind the sale</h2><p>Although Tesla made the announcement of the sale just last week, the company actually sold roughly 31,500 Bitcoin at a price of roughly $30,000 some time back in May. The sale allowed Tesla to secure cash it badly needed and avoided the worst of the losses when Bitcoin fell below $19,000 this July. Had Tesla not sold when it did, the company would have lost about $11,000 per Bitcoin or roughly $346 million. Likely due to some good timing and a little bit of luck, the company only reported a loss of $106 million by selling at $30,000 instead of around $19,000.</p><p>Tesla is the second-largest electric car company in the world, only recently losing the title as No. 1 this July. The lockdowns caused some of its largest factories in cities like Shanghai to shut down for over a month this spring. This type of hit to production forced Tesla to find new means of cash. Without selling the Bitcoin, the most recent earnings report would have likely been one of the worst it had in quite some time. During normal production, Tesla usually sells roughly 60,000 vehicles in China per month. Despite selling a record number of cars in June, roughly 70,000 fewer cars were sold in the second quarter compared to the first quarter.</p><p>By selling its Bitcoin, Tesla was able to bolster its cash reserves and lessen the blow from lockdown-affected factories in China. Ultimately, it might have been the right move to ensure that any further impacts from the lockdowns were minimal and wouldn&#39;t damage Tesla&#39;s bottom line for Q2. It seems as though the decision was an attempt to minimize the damage that would have inevitably shown up on Tesla&#39;s earnings report. While production numbers took a hit, Tesla was able to offset this with an increased amount of cash on its balance sheets. While it&#39;s not always ideal to sell an asset for short term reasons, it seems to have worked in this case -- especially considering that after the earnings announcement, Tesla&#39;s stock was up about 10%.</p><p></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 Did Elon Musk Sell Tesla's Bitcoin?</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 Did Elon Musk Sell Tesla's Bitcoin?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-28 20:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/07/28/why-did-elon-musk-sell-teslas-bitcoin/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Back in February 2021, Elon Musk made headlines when he announced on Twitter (TWTR 1.30%) that his electric car company, Tesla (TSLA 6.17%), would buy Bitcoin (BTC 8.79%) as an alternative to cash.

The $1.5 billion purchase of Bitcoin caused a frenzy of buyers to pile in and drive the price of Bitcoin up nearly 20% in less than 24 hours.Tesla and Musk are now back in the spotlight for the same Bitcoin bought over a year ago. In a quarterly earnings call, Musk disclosed that Tesla sold 75% of its Bitcoin holdings. He cited that the company faced a need for liquidity amid uncertainty in its Chinese operations due to extended COVID-19 lockdowns. With supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, the company needed cash on hand to ensure the disruption in production didn't have as large of an impact.The announcement caused Bitcoin to dip slightly, but it regained those losses quickly after Musk further clarified his comments. He mentioned that the sale \"should not be taken as some verdict on Bitcoin\" and that the company would look to increase Bitcoin holdings in the future.As one of the most prolific entrepreneurs and richest men in the world, any purchase or sale of Bitcoin draws considerable attention from the public. Even more attention is brought about when a sale occurs. However, it seems as though the decision to sell the Bitcoin was potentially the right move for the company.The real reasons behind the saleAlthough Tesla made the announcement of the sale just last week, the company actually sold roughly 31,500 Bitcoin at a price of roughly $30,000 some time back in May. The sale allowed Tesla to secure cash it badly needed and avoided the worst of the losses when Bitcoin fell below $19,000 this July. Had Tesla not sold when it did, the company would have lost about $11,000 per Bitcoin or roughly $346 million. Likely due to some good timing and a little bit of luck, the company only reported a loss of $106 million by selling at $30,000 instead of around $19,000.Tesla is the second-largest electric car company in the world, only recently losing the title as No. 1 this July. The lockdowns caused some of its largest factories in cities like Shanghai to shut down for over a month this spring. This type of hit to production forced Tesla to find new means of cash. Without selling the Bitcoin, the most recent earnings report would have likely been one of the worst it had in quite some time. During normal production, Tesla usually sells roughly 60,000 vehicles in China per month. Despite selling a record number of cars in June, roughly 70,000 fewer cars were sold in the second quarter compared to the first quarter.By selling its Bitcoin, Tesla was able to bolster its cash reserves and lessen the blow from lockdown-affected factories in China. Ultimately, it might have been the right move to ensure that any further impacts from the lockdowns were minimal and wouldn't damage Tesla's bottom line for Q2. It seems as though the decision was an attempt to minimize the damage that would have inevitably shown up on Tesla's earnings report. While production numbers took a hit, Tesla was able to offset this with an increased amount of cash on its balance sheets. While it's not always ideal to sell an asset for short term reasons, it seems to have worked in this case -- especially considering that after the earnings announcement, Tesla's stock was up about 10%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9040078540,"gmtCreate":1655598941380,"gmtModify":1676535667241,"author":{"id":"4105579312450970","authorId":"4105579312450970","name":"jxbxz","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b70b5d03525c87595166411a9729409b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Sad]&nbsp;","listText":"[Sad]&nbsp;","text":"[Sad]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9040078540","repostId":"2244860704","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2244860704","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1655598423,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2244860704?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-06-19 08:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin's Nosedive through the $20,000 Mark Is a Minsky Moment for Crypto","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2244860704","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"MW Bitcoin's nosedive through the $20,000 mark is a Minsky Moment for crypto: 'Psychologically for a","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>MW Bitcoin&#39;s nosedive through the $20,000 mark is a Minsky Moment for crypto: &#39;Psychologically for a lot of people, this is galling&#39;</p><p>Mark DeCambre</p><p>&#39;Bitcoin has already broken down [and is] now seeing significant downside follow-through,&#39; says Katie Stockton of Fairlead Strategies.
