(NASDAQ:MSFT) is charting an ambitious course towards a $575 target by 2024, supported by Azure's striking revenue growth, strategic artificial intelligence integration and increasing market dominance.</p><p>As the cloud market evolves and the U.S. economy experiences shifts, Azure's performance stands out, underscoring Microsoft's prowess in the sector. This growth story is not just about numbers; it's a testament to Azure's integral role in the Intelligent Cloud segment, with revenue soaring to $24.3 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.</p><p>This narrative delves into how Microsoft's forward-looking investments and robust service portfolio position Azure as a long-term player in the cloud market amidst an ever-changing economic landscape.</p><h3 id=\"id_790705270\">Azure is a long-term game</h3><p>Azure's revenue growth has been a standout factor for Microsoft, consistently showcasing impressive numbers. In the first quarter, the Intelligent Cloud segment recorded revenue of $24.3 billion, representing a remarkable 19% increase year over year, primarily propelled by Azure (up 21%).</p><p>Moreover, the broader Microsoft Cloud revenue reached an impressive $31.8 billion, surging 24%. Over the long term, Intelligent Cloud's revenue boosted by 17% in 2023 year-over-year to $88 billion. Intelligent Cloud represents 41.5% of Microsoft's total revenue in 2023 as compared to 37.8% in 2022, signifying its growing vitality in Microsoft's topline.</p><p>Additionally, the consistent revenue growth also reaffirms Azure's strong market presence and demand for cloud services. The software's rapid expansion aligns with the global shift toward cloud computing. Microsoft's ability to capitalize on this trend by offering a comprehensive suite of cloud solutions has significantly contributed to Azure's revenue surge. Therefore, the company's consistent investments in the infrastructure, robust service offerings and technological advancements have solidified its market position.</p><p>Favorably, Azure holds a 23% share of the global cloud market as of the third quarter, up from nearly 21% in the prior-year period. Azure's continuous market share gain proves its ability to attract more organizations to migrate their workloads to Microsoft's cloud.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f8028d918ca635ea50945dd310456858\" tg-width=\"905\" tg-height=\"552\"/></p><p>Source: elcorecloud</p><p>Further, Microsoft's substantial investments (of $11.2 billion) in scaling AI across Azure services signify its strategic focus on leveraging the technology. Integrating AI across various layers of the tech stack drives productivity gains and operational efficiency for clients. The company's collaborations with giant AI entities like OpenAI, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (NASDAQ:META) and Hugging Face further solidify its AI capabilities.</p><p>Azure's versatility is reflected in its diverse clientele across various sectors, such as health care, finance, manufacturing and technology. Notable companies like PepsiCo (NASDAQ:PEP), Vodafone (NASDAQ:VOD), Atrium Health, Northwestern Medicine and SingHealth leverage Azure's capabilities, showcasing its relevance across different industries.</p><p>For instance, introducing specialized solutions like Dragon Ambient eXperience in health care exemplifies Microsoft's focus on developing industry-specific solutions. Also, the company's success in catering to specific sectors, such as finance, by offering solutions for migrating Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) databases to Azure highlights its strategic partnerships.</p><p>Additionally, Azure's capability to support SAP (NYSE:SAP) workloads for companies like Brother Industries (BRTHY), Hanes (NYSE:HBI), and ZEISS (CZMWF) further emphasizes its reliability and versatility in handling enterprise-level cloud services.</p><p>At the bottom line, the improvement in Microsoft Cloud's gross margin percentage to 73% in the first quarter signifies Azure's ability to generate significant returns. Fundamentally, the improvement, excluding accounting estimate changes, reflects the platform's ability to manage costs and enhance profitability while catering to escalating cloud demand.</p><p>Finally, despite scaling AI infrastructure to meet growing demand, Azure showcased improved margins, a critical factor in sustaining profitability while expanding services. As a result, Intelligent Cloud's operating income boosted by 14% during 2023 over 2022's levels.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57245ba6478fedbbf5485a6325a54e9c\" tg-width=\"909\" tg-height=\"439\"/></p><p>Source: Microsoft.com/investor</p><p>Last but not least, Microsoft's forward approach and focus on investing in cloud and AI opportunities while focusing on operational efficiency bode well for Azure's future growth. Expectations of sustained revenue growth of 17% to 18% year over year for Intelligent Cloud in second-quarter 2024 ($25.1 billion to $25.4 billion) indicate a robust trajectory for Azure's expansion (26% to 27% revenue growth year over year). Overall, anticipating stable Azure revenue growth supported by new workload trends and increased AI contributions signifies the platform's potential for consistent growth.</p><h3 id=\"id_3643120410\">Fundamental dominance in the cloud market</h3><p>Azure's substantial market share and growth are derived from its diversified cloud services, such as infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and software-as-a-service (SaaS).</p><p>2024 IT spending may increase by 8% year over year to hit $5.1 trillion globally. Especially based on increased cloud spending (due to increased prices and utilization), investments in the software and services segments may experience double-digit growth. To be specific, spending on data center systems may experience growth of 9.5% in 2024.</p><p>Although generative AI is not expected to impact IT spending positively until 2025, the present focus lays the groundwork for future developments. As mentioned earlier, Microsoft has heavily invested in AI research and development, integrating the software's capabilities into its products and services to absorb the potential impact.</p><p>Notably, global public cloud end-user spending may follow a rapid growth trajectory, nearly 20% year over year, with estimates climbing from $563.6 billion in 2023 to an anticipated $678.8 billion in 2024. This surge is primarily attributed to cloud vendor price increases and increased utilization. Hence, as cloud spending rises, Microsoft's Azure capitalizes on this trend.</p><p>Fundamentally, the cloud market's segmented growth reveals specific areas poised for substantial expansion. IaaS is expected to lead in end-user spending growth, projected at an impressive rate of 26.6% in 2024 and PaaS follows, with a forecasted growth rate of 21.5%. Thus, Microsoft's diversified service portfolio, including Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Kubernetes Service and Azure App Service, positions it strategically to capture growth in these high-growth segments.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7372402b93b674e2085e03f182fe787b\" tg-width=\"903\" tg-height=\"568\"/></p><p>Source: Gartner.com</p><p>Additionally, the prominence of industry cloud platforms is a pivotal trend. Gartner predicts that by 2027, over 70% of enterprises (compared to less than 15% in 2023) will leverage industry cloud platforms to accelerate growth.

(NASDAQ:MSFT) is charting an ambitious course towards a $575 target by 2024, supported by Azure's striking revenue growth, strategic artificial intelligence integration and increasing market dominance.As the cloud market evolves and the U.S. economy experiences shifts, Azure's performance stands out, underscoring Microsoft's prowess in the sector. This growth story is not just about numbers; it's a testament to Azure's integral role in the Intelligent Cloud segment, with revenue soaring to $24.3 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.This narrative delves into how Microsoft's forward-looking investments and robust service portfolio position Azure as a long-term player in the cloud market amidst an ever-changing economic landscape.Azure is a long-term gameAzure's revenue growth has been a standout factor for Microsoft, consistently showcasing impressive numbers. In the first quarter, the Intelligent Cloud segment recorded revenue of $24.3 billion, representing a remarkable 19% increase year over year, primarily propelled by Azure (up 21%).Moreover, the broader Microsoft Cloud revenue reached an impressive $31.8 billion, surging 24%. Over the long term, Intelligent Cloud's revenue boosted by 17% in 2023 year-over-year to $88 billion. Intelligent Cloud represents 41.5% of Microsoft's total revenue in 2023 as compared to 37.8% in 2022, signifying its growing vitality in Microsoft's topline.Additionally, the consistent revenue growth also reaffirms Azure's strong market presence and demand for cloud services. The software's rapid expansion aligns with the global shift toward cloud computing. Microsoft's ability to capitalize on this trend by offering a comprehensive suite of cloud solutions has significantly contributed to Azure's revenue surge. Therefore, the company's consistent investments in the infrastructure, robust service offerings and technological advancements have solidified its market position.Favorably, Azure holds a 23% share of the global cloud market as of the third quarter, up from nearly 21% in the prior-year period. Azure's continuous market share gain proves its ability to attract more organizations to migrate their workloads to Microsoft's cloud.Source: elcorecloudFurther, Microsoft's substantial investments (of $11.2 billion) in scaling AI across Azure services signify its strategic focus on leveraging the technology. Integrating AI across various layers of the tech stack drives productivity gains and operational efficiency for clients. The company's collaborations with giant AI entities like OpenAI, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) and Hugging Face further solidify its AI capabilities.Azure's versatility is reflected in its diverse clientele across various sectors, such as health care, finance, manufacturing and technology. Notable companies like PepsiCo (NASDAQ:PEP), Vodafone (NASDAQ:VOD), Atrium Health, Northwestern Medicine and SingHealth leverage Azure's capabilities, showcasing its relevance across different industries.For instance, introducing specialized solutions like Dragon Ambient eXperience in health care exemplifies Microsoft's focus on developing industry-specific solutions. Also, the company's success in catering to specific sectors, such as finance, by offering solutions for migrating Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) databases to Azure highlights its strategic partnerships.Additionally, Azure's capability to support SAP (NYSE:SAP) workloads for companies like Brother Industries (BRTHY), Hanes (NYSE:HBI), and ZEISS (CZMWF) further emphasizes its reliability and versatility in handling enterprise-level cloud services.At the bottom line, the improvement in Microsoft Cloud's gross margin percentage to 73% in the first quarter signifies Azure's ability to generate significant returns. Fundamentally, the improvement, excluding accounting estimate changes, reflects the platform's ability to manage costs and enhance profitability while catering to escalating cloud demand.Finally, despite scaling AI infrastructure to meet growing demand, Azure showcased improved margins, a critical factor in sustaining profitability while expanding services. As a result, Intelligent Cloud's operating income boosted by 14% during 2023 over 2022's levels.Source: Microsoft.com/investorLast but not least, Microsoft's forward approach and focus on investing in cloud and AI opportunities while focusing on operational efficiency bode well for Azure's future growth. Expectations of sustained revenue growth of 17% to 18% year over year for Intelligent Cloud in second-quarter 2024 ($25.1 billion to $25.4 billion) indicate a robust trajectory for Azure's expansion (26% to 27% revenue growth year over year). Overall, anticipating stable Azure revenue growth supported by new workload trends and increased AI contributions signifies the platform's potential for consistent growth.Fundamental dominance in the cloud marketAzure's substantial market share and growth are derived from its diversified cloud services, such as infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and software-as-a-service (SaaS).2024 IT spending may increase by 8% year over year to hit $5.1 trillion globally. Especially based on increased cloud spending (due to increased prices and utilization), investments in the software and services segments may experience double-digit growth. To be specific, spending on data center systems may experience growth of 9.5% in 2024.Although generative AI is not expected to impact IT spending positively until 2025, the present focus lays the groundwork for future developments. As mentioned earlier, Microsoft has heavily invested in AI research and development, integrating the software's capabilities into its products and services to absorb the potential impact.Notably, global public cloud end-user spending may follow a rapid growth trajectory, nearly 20% year over year, with estimates climbing from $563.6 billion in 2023 to an anticipated $678.8 billion in 2024. This surge is primarily attributed to cloud vendor price increases and increased utilization. Hence, as cloud spending rises, Microsoft's Azure capitalizes on this trend.Fundamentally, the cloud market's segmented growth reveals specific areas poised for substantial expansion. IaaS is expected to lead in end-user spending growth, projected at an impressive rate of 26.6% in 2024 and PaaS follows, with a forecasted growth rate of 21.5%. Thus, Microsoft's diversified service portfolio, including Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Kubernetes Service and Azure App Service, positions it strategically to capture growth in these high-growth segments.Source: Gartner.comAdditionally, the prominence of industry cloud platforms is a pivotal trend. Gartner predicts that by 2027, over 70% of enterprises (compared to less than 15% in 2023) will leverage industry cloud platforms to accelerate growth. These platforms amalgamate SaaS, PaaS and IaaS services to meet industry-specific demands, aligning perfectly with Microsoft's strategy.Thus, Microsoft's recognition as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure underscores its strength in providing cloud-native infrastructure attributes for distributed deployments. Azure Arc, Azure Kubernetes Service and Azure Stack HCI demonstrate Microsoft's focus on delivering adaptable, unified control plane solutions across diverse deployment scenarios.Finally, this leadership status solidifies the company's reputation and competence in facilitating distributed infrastructure, enhancing its attractiveness to businesses seeking flexible and scalable cloud solutions. As a result, it may continue to benefit Microsoft's revenue growth over the long term.Downside lies in macroeconomic outlookOn the downside, due to the industry's focus on cost control, operational efficiencies, capital restrictions (due to weak stocks and bonds) or margin issues, the majority of CIOs are experiencing change fatigue, hesitating to invest in new projects and initiatives, which could lead to a delay in IT spending that may extend into 2025.Therefore, the forecasts suggest business investment may experience a relatively low growth rate of 1.75% in 2024. However, despite this trend, Microsoft's diverse portfolio across software, cloud services and AI positions it as a resilient player in an environment where businesses might delay investments in new projects.On the positive side, according to Goldman Sachs, there are expectations for a further decrease in inflation pace in 2024 (to reach 2.5% to 3%). Reduced inflation may positively affect business spending, potentially freeing up resources for investment to upgrade their IT infrastructure.Finally, the U.S. economy is now attached to a lower probability of recession in 2024, 15% in third-quarter 2023 compared to 35% in the first quater, due to positive trends in inflation and the labor market.Source: Goldman SachsTechnical take: Targeting $575 by 2024Microsoft's stock price experienced a rapid recovery and new highs during October and November.

I have long been skeptical of Palantir. Its claims have long been well ahead of its financials.</p><p>PLTR stock has a market cap of over $40 billion on $2.1 billion of revenue, growing at 20% per year. The company is only marginally profitable, although it may now be added to the S&P 500.</p><h2 id=\"id_1967637175\">The AI Hype Cycle and PLTR Stock</h2><p>Palantir is riding an AI hype cycle. When the hype cycle goes up, so does the stock. When the hype cycle goes down, so does Palantir.</p><p>Delivering insights from large databases is now defined as AI. The insights are called machine learning. The databases are large language models. Palantir was doing this before it was cool. This is why analysts are hyping the stock.</p><p>Palantir developed its technology for use by the military and has extended contracts proving its value. Data can “see” what’s happening on a battlefield and help plan a campaign. It can catch changing conditions and alert leaders to threats quickly.</p><p>The challenge has been to go beyond this niche. Palantir calls the commercial version of its technology the Foundry. It has been lining up partners to deliver it. Any drop in the shares is seen as a buying opportunity. </p><p>Foundry has found success in applications like hospital scheduling. Matching what’s available to what’s needed can be useful to planners of all kinds. It’s not as sexy as delivering pictures based on prompts, but it’s a lot more useful.</p><p>This may be why <strong>Blackrock</strong> now has a $1.5 billion stake in Palantir. It’s why Jim Cramer recently told investors to buy it, despite its sky high valuation. Whenever Palantir signs a new commercial partner, analysts start comparing it to <strong>Nvidia</strong>.</p><h2 id=\"id_3162377395\">The Danger Signs</h2><p>Palantir’s success in anticipating needs helped it win a contract with England’s National Health Service, but PLTR stock fell after the deal was announced. Its past as a military contractor quickly drew pushback. Patients were leery of giving it access to the data needed for Foundry to do its job.</p><p>The Generative AI boom has also brought competition to Palantir’s party. Many if not most big tech players are in the game. They see big profits in delivering different output, including computer code, from Internet-sized databases. They also don’t have Palantir’s proprietary attitude or history of military secrecy to contend with.</p><h2 id=\"id_3496280113\">The Bottom Line</h2><p>I have been wrong about Palantir stock for a long time. Any company whose leading edge technology delivers growth is going to command a big price. This is especially true if it can deliver profits, even small ones. Palantir’s entry into the S&P 500 will be a catalyst for buying.</p><p>To be worth my money, however, Palantir needs to grow faster than it is doing right now. It must deliver a lot more profit. Yet the company, being conservative in the best possible way, is not promising that.</p></body></html>","source":"investorplace_stock_picks","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

I have long been skeptical of Palantir. Its claims have long been well ahead of its financials.PLTR stock has a market cap of over $40 billion on $2.1 billion of revenue, growing at 20% per year. The company is only marginally profitable, although it may now be added to the S&P 500.The AI Hype Cycle and PLTR StockPalantir is riding an AI hype cycle. When the hype cycle goes up, so does the stock. When the hype cycle goes down, so does Palantir.Delivering insights from large databases is now defined as AI. The insights are called machine learning. The databases are large language models. Palantir was doing this before it was cool. This is why analysts are hyping the stock.Palantir developed its technology for use by the military and has extended contracts proving its value. Data can “see” what’s happening on a battlefield and help plan a campaign. It can catch changing conditions and alert leaders to threats quickly.The challenge has been to go beyond this niche. Palantir calls the commercial version of its technology the Foundry. It has been lining up partners to deliver it. Any drop in the shares is seen as a buying opportunity. Foundry has found success in applications like hospital scheduling. Matching what’s available to what’s needed can be useful to planners of all kinds. It’s not as sexy as delivering pictures based on prompts, but it’s a lot more useful.This may be why Blackrock now has a $1.5 billion stake in Palantir. It’s why Jim Cramer recently told investors to buy it, despite its sky high valuation. Whenever Palantir signs a new commercial partner, analysts start comparing it to Nvidia.The Danger SignsPalantir’s success in anticipating needs helped it win a contract with England’s National Health Service, but PLTR stock fell after the deal was announced. Its past as a military contractor quickly drew pushback. Patients were leery of giving it access to the data needed for Foundry to do its job.The Generative AI boom has also brought competition to Palantir’s party. Many if not most big tech players are in the game. They see big profits in delivering different output, including computer code, from Internet-sized databases. They also don’t have Palantir’s proprietary attitude or history of military secrecy to contend with.The Bottom LineI have been wrong about Palantir stock for a long time. Any company whose leading edge technology delivers growth is going to command a big price. This is especially true if it can deliver profits, even small ones. Palantir’s entry into the S&P 500 will be a catalyst for buying.To be worth my money, however, Palantir needs to grow faster than it is doing right now. It must deliver a lot more profit. Yet the company, being conservative in the best possible way, is not promising that.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":247426056048752,"gmtCreate":1701444673919,"gmtModify":1701444679547,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>New low soon","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>New low soon","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ New low soon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/247426056048752","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":234,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":247415545675936,"gmtCreate":1701442222921,"gmtModify":1701442224576,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Down","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Down","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Down","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/247415545675936","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":89,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":247027818487840,"gmtCreate":1701347433071,"gmtModify":1701347437645,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"cannot","listText":"cannot","text":"cannot","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/247027818487840","repostId":"2387486164","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2387486164","pubTimestamp":1701347032,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2387486164?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-11-30 20:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Could Palantir Become the Next Microsoft?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2387486164","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This data mining company might eventually evolve into a megacap tech giant.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PLTR\">Palantir Technologies</a> has been a divisive stock ever since the company went public via a direct listing in September 2020.

If it can't check all three of those boxes, its stock could drop much lower before it revisits its all-time high.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":39,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":246726045417688,"gmtCreate":1701257269149,"gmtModify":1701257271909,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>400","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>400","text":"$Microsoft(MSFT)$ 400","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/246726045417688","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":41,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":246383443353816,"gmtCreate":1701173626067,"gmtModify":1701173630063,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I see lol","listText":"I see lol","text":"I see lol","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/246383443353816","repostId":"2386137626","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2386137626","pubTimestamp":1701142642,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2386137626?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-11-28 11:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft: Priced For Zero Interest Rates","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2386137626","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"Data by YCharts Such a negative spread is not sustainable over the long term.

That's a forward earnings yield of 3.1%. And looking at actual last 12 months' numbers gives an even more aggressive earnings yield of 2.74%.</p><p>It's important to consider the earnings yield in light of interest rates (i.e., yields). If we look back, over the past 10 years, the earnings yield has, for the most part, moved with and <strong>been above</strong> the 10-year treasury yield. In particular, between 2014 and today, MSFT has averaged an earnings yield of 3.7%, while the 10-year treasury yield has averaged about 2.2%, for a spread of around 150 bps.</p><p>Today, that spread is <strong>negative 210 bps</strong>!</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f0fc73e8b1bd19a6975ee95f86db6993\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"481\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p>Such a negative spread is not sustainable over the long term.

Going back to Microsoft, a 50 bps drop in yields isn't nearly enough to normalize the valuation, so other significant tailwinds are needed to justify the valuation.</p><h2 id=\"id_852182928\">Growth expectations following recent results</h2><p>The single most evident tailwind is AI which makes the growth forecast very tricky. Right now, it seems that AI could have vast implications for many businesses and have the potential to increase productivity significantly. But the same was true of the internet in early 2000s, yet it took another 10+ years for the "idea" to actually translate into profits. And those who bought at the top of the bubble suffered significant losses in the meantime.</p><p>The truth is that no one knows how big AI could get and how soon it will translate into higher earnings. But when/if it happens, Microsoft is very likely to benefit from the roll-out of AI in a number of ways. Most notably, the fact that most businesses already use Microsoft's products should make the implementation of AI applications seamless and combined with Microsoft's hyper scalable cloud service Azure, there aren't many players that have a better chance of gaining market share.</p><p>Microsoft has posted great results recently. In the short-term, over fiscal Q1 2024, AI-related momentum has resulted in very strong YoY growth in Cloud and Azure of 24% and 29%, respectively. This has driven overall Cloud revenues up by 19% YoY. Productivity and Business Processes were up 13% YoY, while Personal Computing lagged at just 3% YoY, primarily due to a 22% drop in revenue from Devices.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee051a0aa3974c23850e61f0d465d34d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"/></p><p>MSFT Presentation</p><p>Moreover, Microsoft's margins have continued to improve with the gross margin increasing by 2 pts and the operating margins by 5 pts, reaching record levels.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd66eff6b61a3eebe079c88f9703b197\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"433\"/></p><p>Main Street Data</p><p>Going forward, it's likely that growth will continue to be driven by MSFT's cloud service.

decline.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":37,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":242318273839168,"gmtCreate":1700196753224,"gmtModify":1700196756673,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

Today, there are five -- <b>Apple</b>, <b>Microsoft</b>, <b>Amazon</b>, <b>Alphabet</b>, and <b>Tesla</b> -- with the iPhone-maker leading the pack at a market cap of $2.8 trillion. Not long ago, there was a sixth trillion-dollar company, but Facebook-parent <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a>' </b>recent collapse has shaved its market value down to less than $600 billion.</p><p>There's no doubt that there will be more $1 trillion companies in the future, and some like Warren Buffett's <b>Berkshire Hathaway </b>are already knocking on the door. Keep reading to see why <b>Airbnb</b> and <b>Paypal</b> could also hit the 13-digit mark by the end of the decade.</p><h2>1. Airbnb</h2><p>Airbnb has disrupted the travel industry, making everyone's home into a potential hotel. The concept might have once seemed edgy, but it's gone mainstream in only a few years.</p><p>While Airbnb has competitors that also offer home-sharing like VRBO, the company's brand is synonymous with the business, and it's also different from many of its competitors because its accommodations are largely from individual hosts rather than professional short-term rental companies.</p><p>In order to reach a $1 trillion market cap, a company needs a large addressable market, and there's no question Airbnb has that. In its prospectus ahead of its IPO, the company estimated a $3.4 trillion addressable market between accommodations and experiences. Airbnb isn't going to kill the hotel industry, but market share in lodging is shifting steadily from traditional to apartments and home-sharing accommodations. The pandemic also added to Airbnb's advantage over hotels, as it can offer places to stay anywhere in the world, while traditional hotels tend to be clustered in downtowns, tourist areas, and airports, all of which have struggled over the last two years. Meanwhile, the rise of remote work should help fuel Airbnb's growth as well.</p><p>Airbnb is currently trading at a lofty valuation, but the company could grow its revenue by 20% annually over the next decade. That would give it $37 billion in revenue in a decade. That alone won't be enough to get the company to a $1 trillion valuation, but its margins are also ramping up quickly as its business model is scalable. Airbnb's EBITDA margin in 2021 was 26.7%. If that improves to 40% in ten years, the company would have $15 billion in EBITDA, meaning a $1 trillion valuation would price it at 67 times EBITDA. That's well within the company's reach if it executes on its vision for transforming the travel industry. Currently, Airbnb is worth roughly $100 billion.</p><h2>2. Paypal</h2><p><b>Paypal </b>( PYPL 3.06% ) pioneered online payments, and remains the leader of the industry. The company currently has a market cap of slightly more than $100 billion, but Paypal stock has fallen sharply in recent months amid the broader sell-off in growth stocks, down more than two thirds from its peak last summer.</p><p>Indeed, the company's growth rate is taking a breather after a pandemic-driven boom, but Paypal's long-term growth still makes it appealing. The company is forecasting 15%-17% revenue growth this year, or 19%-21% excluding <b>EBay</b>, which said last year it would stop using Paypal to pay its sellers.</p><p>Despite the loss of EBay, Paypal still has a number of tailwinds in its favor, including the growth of e-commerce, the movement of payments to digital channels, recent acquisitions like Venmo, and expanding its customer base.

Today, there are five -- Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, and Tesla -- with the iPhone-maker leading the pack at a market cap of $2.8 trillion. Not long ago, there was a sixth trillion-dollar company, but Facebook-parent Meta Platforms' recent collapse has shaved its market value down to less than $600 billion.There's no doubt that there will be more $1 trillion companies in the future, and some like Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway are already knocking on the door. Keep reading to see why Airbnb and Paypal could also hit the 13-digit mark by the end of the decade.1. AirbnbAirbnb has disrupted the travel industry, making everyone's home into a potential hotel. The concept might have once seemed edgy, but it's gone mainstream in only a few years.While Airbnb has competitors that also offer home-sharing like VRBO, the company's brand is synonymous with the business, and it's also different from many of its competitors because its accommodations are largely from individual hosts rather than professional short-term rental companies.In order to reach a $1 trillion market cap, a company needs a large addressable market, and there's no question Airbnb has that. In its prospectus ahead of its IPO, the company estimated a $3.4 trillion addressable market between accommodations and experiences. Airbnb isn't going to kill the hotel industry, but market share in lodging is shifting steadily from traditional to apartments and home-sharing accommodations. The pandemic also added to Airbnb's advantage over hotels, as it can offer places to stay anywhere in the world, while traditional hotels tend to be clustered in downtowns, tourist areas, and airports, all of which have struggled over the last two years. Meanwhile, the rise of remote work should help fuel Airbnb's growth as well.Airbnb is currently trading at a lofty valuation, but the company could grow its revenue by 20% annually over the next decade. That would give it $37 billion in revenue in a decade. That alone won't be enough to get the company to a $1 trillion valuation, but its margins are also ramping up quickly as its business model is scalable. Airbnb's EBITDA margin in 2021 was 26.7%. If that improves to 40% in ten years, the company would have $15 billion in EBITDA, meaning a $1 trillion valuation would price it at 67 times EBITDA. That's well within the company's reach if it executes on its vision for transforming the travel industry. Currently, Airbnb is worth roughly $100 billion.2. PaypalPaypal ( PYPL 3.06% ) pioneered online payments, and remains the leader of the industry. The company currently has a market cap of slightly more than $100 billion, but Paypal stock has fallen sharply in recent months amid the broader sell-off in growth stocks, down more than two thirds from its peak last summer.Indeed, the company's growth rate is taking a breather after a pandemic-driven boom, but Paypal's long-term growth still makes it appealing. The company is forecasting 15%-17% revenue growth this year, or 19%-21% excluding EBay, which said last year it would stop using Paypal to pay its sellers.Despite the loss of EBay, Paypal still has a number of tailwinds in its favor, including the growth of e-commerce, the movement of payments to digital channels, recent acquisitions like Venmo, and expanding its customer base. It recently became a payment option on DoorDash, for example, through both Paypal and Venmo, and is now used by DoorDash for some of its direct credit card processing.The best reason though to bet on Paypal right now may be its valuation. Based on its adjusted earnings per share of $4.60 last year, the stock is trading at a price-to-earnings ratio of 21.7, which is cheaper than the S&P 500's P/E multiple at 22.2. With 20% annual EPS growth over the next decade and modest multiple expansion, Paypal could hit the $1 trillion mark by 2030.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9080132424,"gmtCreate":1649856831805,"gmtModify":1676534590826,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

tg-height=\"500\"/><span>Drew Angerer/Getty Images News</span></p><p>NIO Inc. (NYSE:NIO) is an exciting pure EV company out of China. I've been bullish on NIO due to its innovative vehicles, growth prospects, and future profitability potential. Moreover, due to its higher-end EV market position, production capacity, and other factors, I've often said that NIO is the closest pure EV competitor that Tesla (TSLA) has.</p><p>However, despite NIO's considerable long-term growth and profitability potential, the company may face challenges in the near and intermediate term. NIO's problems could persist for several reasons, including a sluggish Chinese economy, rising costs, lower margins, increased competition, and other variables. Nevertheless, a primary concern for NIO is Tesla. Tesla has illustrated that it can drop vehicle prices while maintaining high profitability, taking market share from NIO and other EV manufacturers.</p><p>Unfortunately for NIO, it cannot drop prices low enough to effectively compete with Tesla because of Tesla's economies of scale advantage and other factors. Therefore, NIO could continue struggling as we move forward. Moreover, NIO's recent earnings announcement showed the company missing top and bottom-line consensus estimates, putting the company's outlook into question. Additionally, NIO's margins continue deteriorating, and uncertainty surrounds its stock. Due to the increased transparency, NIO's risk/reward ratio has fallen, and I'm taking down my buy rating on its stock, transitioning to a hold instead.</p><h2 id=\"id_2091863318\">Technically - Could Rally In The Near Term</h2><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8f932649cc1766e74122b4a9e6074167\" alt=\"NIO (StockCharts.com)\" title=\"NIO (StockCharts.com)\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"676\"/><span>NIO (StockCharts.com)</span></p><p>I won't deny it. Technically, NIO's chart appears bullish in the near term here. The stock likely put in a long-term bottom around the $7 level, staging a robust rally to around $16 before dropping back to the $10 range. We recently witnessed the 50-day MA move above the 200-day MA, a bullish technical signal. We also see a possible basing platform around the $10 support, implying we may see a rally in the near term. Nevertheless, this stock remains highly uncertain for the long term despite the near-term positives.</p><h2 id=\"id_238195263\">NIO's Missing Numbers - Puts Outlook in Question</h2><p>NIO recently reported Q2 Non-GAAP EPADS of -$0.45, missing the four-cent consensus number. Moreover, it reported revenue of $1.21B, a $60M miss, and a 14.8% YoY decrease. Q2 deliveries came in at 23,520 vehicles, a 6.1% YoY decrease. Q2 vehicle sales came in at about <em>$991M</em>, representing a 25% YoY decline. Vehicle margin was only 6.2%, a staggering drop from the 16.7% in the same quarter last year.</p><h2 id=\"id_3628737876\">NIO's Staggering $828 Million Loss</h2><p>Additionally, NIO's gross margin crashed to just 1% from 13% in the same quarter last year. NIO's Q2 net loss widened to more than 6 billion Yuan, equating to a staggering quarterly loss of $828 million. Unfortunately, this massive loss isn't new for the company, as NIO's TTM loss is close to $3 billion. NIO produced about <em>$6 billion</em> in revenues during the same time frame. Thus, the $64,000 question is, when will NIO become profitable?</p><p>The answer is no time soon. Moreover, a capital raise could come shortly. Therefore, there's likely dilution in NIO's future, implying the stock could fall or stay range bound longer-term. Moreover, I wonder if NIO can effectively compete with Tesla in the long run.</p><h2 id=\"id_1614492524\">NIO's Massive Tesla Problem</h2><p>Tesla dominates China's higher-end EV segment. Tesla recorded more than 84,000 unit sales last month (August). This sales increase represents a 31% YoY surge for Tesla, bringing its YTD vehicles sold in China to about 625,000. NIO delivered 19,329 in August, bringing its YTD vehicle sales count to 94,352. However, management is guiding to sales of 15-17K in September. Therefore, we're seeing NIO's order book slowing down, and NIO needs many more sales (200-300K annually) to have a chance to be profitable. Tesla's position is so prominent in China that NIO may find it challenging to compete effectively in the long run.</p><h2 id=\"id_2894464553\">What Would You Buy - Tesla or NIO?</h2><p>NIO's popular ET5 sedan starts at about $46,100, and the price can climb into the $50-$60K range quickly once options are added. NIO's EC6 (Model Y competitor) starts at about $52,400, and the price can surge into the $60-$70K range with options. In contrast, the Model Y starts at only $41,000 in China and has (arguably) more advanced technologies and better engineering. Due to Tesla's remarkable ability to control prices, its mass-market vehicles are far more affordable than its prime competitor in China. Therefore, NIO's recent sales improvement may be temporary, and Tesla could continue taking NIO's market share as we advance. NIO can have a niche place in the EV market, but whether it can become mainstream and profitable remains to be seen. Therefore, I need more certainty as an investor here. Until then, I would rather own Tesla's stock instead.</p><h2 id=\"id_3025812721\">NIO: Is It Worth The Risk?</h2><p>NIO is an increased-risk investment because it is a Chinese company. However, NIO is even riskier because it's a highly unprofitable Chinese company. There is the added risk of unrelenting competition from Tesla and other profitable higher-end EV automakers. Moreover, some market participants have raised questions regarding NIO's accounting practices, pointing to a "Philidor" like entity (Wuhan Weineng) inflating NIO's revenues and profitability in recent years. Therefore, we have an additional risk of accounting irregularities with NIO. As an investor, why do I need to take such risks? To see NIO succeed? The company may grow in the long run, and its share price could go much higher in the coming years. Nevertheless, there is also an inflated risk of sideways price action and failure, which makes NIO a less attractive investment long-term. Therefore, I've reduced my buy rating to hold, recently selling my NIO shares following the troubling Q2 earnings announcement.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

(NYSE:NIO) is an exciting pure EV company out of China. I've been bullish on NIO due to its innovative vehicles, growth prospects, and future profitability potential. Moreover, due to its higher-end EV market position, production capacity, and other factors, I've often said that NIO is the closest pure EV competitor that Tesla (TSLA) has.However, despite NIO's considerable long-term growth and profitability potential, the company may face challenges in the near and intermediate term. NIO's problems could persist for several reasons, including a sluggish Chinese economy, rising costs, lower margins, increased competition, and other variables. Nevertheless, a primary concern for NIO is Tesla. Tesla has illustrated that it can drop vehicle prices while maintaining high profitability, taking market share from NIO and other EV manufacturers.Unfortunately for NIO, it cannot drop prices low enough to effectively compete with Tesla because of Tesla's economies of scale advantage and other factors. Therefore, NIO could continue struggling as we move forward. Moreover, NIO's recent earnings announcement showed the company missing top and bottom-line consensus estimates, putting the company's outlook into question. Additionally, NIO's margins continue deteriorating, and uncertainty surrounds its stock. Due to the increased transparency, NIO's risk/reward ratio has fallen, and I'm taking down my buy rating on its stock, transitioning to a hold instead.Technically - Could Rally In The Near TermNIO (StockCharts.com)I won't deny it. Technically, NIO's chart appears bullish in the near term here. The stock likely put in a long-term bottom around the $7 level, staging a robust rally to around $16 before dropping back to the $10 range. We recently witnessed the 50-day MA move above the 200-day MA, a bullish technical signal. We also see a possible basing platform around the $10 support, implying we may see a rally in the near term. Nevertheless, this stock remains highly uncertain for the long term despite the near-term positives.NIO's Missing Numbers - Puts Outlook in QuestionNIO recently reported Q2 Non-GAAP EPADS of -$0.45, missing the four-cent consensus number. Moreover, it reported revenue of $1.21B, a $60M miss, and a 14.8% YoY decrease. Q2 deliveries came in at 23,520 vehicles, a 6.1% YoY decrease. Q2 vehicle sales came in at about $991M, representing a 25% YoY decline. Vehicle margin was only 6.2%, a staggering drop from the 16.7% in the same quarter last year.NIO's Staggering $828 Million LossAdditionally, NIO's gross margin crashed to just 1% from 13% in the same quarter last year. NIO's Q2 net loss widened to more than 6 billion Yuan, equating to a staggering quarterly loss of $828 million. Unfortunately, this massive loss isn't new for the company, as NIO's TTM loss is close to $3 billion. NIO produced about $6 billion in revenues during the same time frame. Thus, the $64,000 question is, when will NIO become profitable?The answer is no time soon. Moreover, a capital raise could come shortly. Therefore, there's likely dilution in NIO's future, implying the stock could fall or stay range bound longer-term. Moreover, I wonder if NIO can effectively compete with Tesla in the long run.NIO's Massive Tesla ProblemTesla dominates China's higher-end EV segment. Tesla recorded more than 84,000 unit sales last month (August). This sales increase represents a 31% YoY surge for Tesla, bringing its YTD vehicles sold in China to about 625,000. NIO delivered 19,329 in August, bringing its YTD vehicle sales count to 94,352. However, management is guiding to sales of 15-17K in September. Therefore, we're seeing NIO's order book slowing down, and NIO needs many more sales (200-300K annually) to have a chance to be profitable. Tesla's position is so prominent in China that NIO may find it challenging to compete effectively in the long run.What Would You Buy - Tesla or NIO?NIO's popular ET5 sedan starts at about $46,100, and the price can climb into the $50-$60K range quickly once options are added. NIO's EC6 (Model Y competitor) starts at about $52,400, and the price can surge into the $60-$70K range with options. In contrast, the Model Y starts at only $41,000 in China and has (arguably) more advanced technologies and better engineering. Due to Tesla's remarkable ability to control prices, its mass-market vehicles are far more affordable than its prime competitor in China. Therefore, NIO's recent sales improvement may be temporary, and Tesla could continue taking NIO's market share as we advance. NIO can have a niche place in the EV market, but whether it can become mainstream and profitable remains to be seen. Therefore, I need more certainty as an investor here. Until then, I would rather own Tesla's stock instead.NIO: Is It Worth The Risk?NIO is an increased-risk investment because it is a Chinese company. However, NIO is even riskier because it's a highly unprofitable Chinese company. There is the added risk of unrelenting competition from Tesla and other profitable higher-end EV automakers. Moreover, some market participants have raised questions regarding NIO's accounting practices, pointing to a \"Philidor\" like entity (Wuhan Weineng) inflating NIO's revenues and profitability in recent years. Therefore, we have an additional risk of accounting irregularities with NIO. As an investor, why do I need to take such risks? To see NIO succeed? The company may grow in the long run, and its share price could go much higher in the coming years. Nevertheless, there is also an inflated risk of sideways price action and failure, which makes NIO a less attractive investment long-term. Therefore, I've reduced my buy rating to hold, recently selling my NIO shares following the troubling Q2 earnings announcement.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210458592419904,"gmtCreate":1692406271635,"gmtModify":1692406275301,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Buy below $10","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Buy below $10","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ Buy below $10","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/210458592419904","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":124,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210270566170760,"gmtCreate":1692360294111,"gmtModify":1692360296908,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Temp down trend","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>Temp down trend","text":"$Microsoft(MSFT)$ Temp down trend","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/210270566170760","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":81,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210241489023024,"gmtCreate":1692353178073,"gmtModify":1692353180609,"author":{"id":"4107139468876280","authorId":"4107139468876280","name":"Lolollol","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a4d968ab8e2b9b550f55fe41dabc5845","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>$10 coming","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>$10 coming","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$ $10 coming","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/210241489023024","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":75,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
