The pandemic frontloaded gaming growth in 2020 and 2021 amid the lockdowns, but after consumers returned to pre-pandemic entertainment options, revenue growth in gaming reversed. Industry analysts at Newzoo reported a 4% decline in gaming revenue in 2022, even as the number of players rose to 3.2 billion, up from 3.1 billion in 2021. That decline has hampered growth in companies that are partially or exclusively focused on gaming.</p><p>However, if Newzoo&#39;s forecast of 3.5 billion gamers by 2025 proves true, gaming investors will likely view the 2022 revenue decline as a short-term correction. After all, according to report by Axios, the revenue decline in gaming was largely based in mobile gaming, but these games are gaining popularity in new, &#34;mobile-centric regions&#34; across the world. Meanwhile, PC gaming revenue continues to grow and much of the decline in console-gaming-based revenue could be sourced in lingering supply chain and game development issues from the pandemic.</p><p>As the industry experiences a likely resumption in revenue growth, gaming should again boost the tech sector and provide a catalyst for less conventional video game stocks like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">Advanced Micro Devices </a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited </a>.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a></h2><p>AMD has gained notoriety in recent years as a semiconductor stock. Its twin expertise in CPUs (central processing units) and GPUs (graphics processing units) has made it a formidable competitor to <strong>Nvidia </strong>and <strong>Intel</strong>. Moreover, it has prospered as the company&#39;s chips have become essential to powering data centers.</p><p>But this success may lead investors to forget its longtime core competency in gaming. Under Lisa Su&#39;s leadership, AMD&#39;s revival has hinged partially on gaming, with the company winning contracts to power <strong>Sony</strong> and <strong>Microsoft</strong>&#39;s newest videogame consoles. Some gaming-related graphics applications have also helped bolster its successful data center business and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.</p><p>In 2022, gaming accounted for $6.8 billion of AMD&#39;s revenue, or 29% of the company&#39;s $23.6 billion total. That revenue did not compensate for rising operating and acquisition costs as 2022 net income fell to $1.3 billion versus $3.2 billion in 2021.</p><p>Nonetheless, investors have bid AMD stock higher amid excitement over AI in recent weeks. And though falling profits took its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio to 106, the forward P/E ratio of 31 implies the stock may not be as expensive as it appears. Such conditions indicate that AMD could benefit from a longer-term recovery in gaming despite the recent surge in the stock price.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited</a></h2><p>Sea Limited may be less familiar to U.S.-based investors. After all, most of its business takes place in Southeast Asia.</p><p>Some investors might know Sea Limited by its Shopee e-commerce platform or its fintech segment, Sea Money. However, the company started with its gaming segment, Garena. And while Garena consists of numerous games, such as <em>Speed Drifter</em> and <em>Arena of Valor</em>, its most popular game is <em>Free Fire</em>, a battle royale game. <em>Free Fire</em> was the most popular downloaded mobile game globally from 2019 to 2021.</p><p>Revenue in Sea Limited&#39;s digital entertainment segment, which includes Garena, fell by 10.3% in 2022. But despite <em>Free Fire</em>&#39;s recent weakness, the segment still comprised $3.9 billion of the company&#39;s $12.4 billion in revenue in 2022. Meanwhile, growth in its e-commerce and digital financial service segments kept Sea Limited on course.

The pandemic frontloaded gaming growth in 2020 and 2021 amid the lockdowns, but after consumers returned to pre-pandemic entertainment options, revenue growth in gaming reversed. Industry analysts at Newzoo reported a 4% decline in gaming revenue in 2022, even as the number of players rose to 3.2 billion, up from 3.1 billion in 2021. That decline has hampered growth in companies that are partially or exclusively focused on gaming.However, if Newzoo's forecast of 3.5 billion gamers by 2025 proves true, gaming investors will likely view the 2022 revenue decline as a short-term correction. After all, according to report by Axios, the revenue decline in gaming was largely based in mobile gaming, but these games are gaining popularity in new, \"mobile-centric regions\" across the world. Meanwhile, PC gaming revenue continues to grow and much of the decline in console-gaming-based revenue could be sourced in lingering supply chain and game development issues from the pandemic.As the industry experiences a likely resumption in revenue growth, gaming should again boost the tech sector and provide a catalyst for less conventional video game stocks like Advanced Micro Devices  and Sea Limited .1. AMDAMD has gained notoriety in recent years as a semiconductor stock. Its twin expertise in CPUs (central processing units) and GPUs (graphics processing units) has made it a formidable competitor to Nvidia and Intel. Moreover, it has prospered as the company's chips have become essential to powering data centers.But this success may lead investors to forget its longtime core competency in gaming. Under Lisa Su's leadership, AMD's revival has hinged partially on gaming, with the company winning contracts to power Sony and Microsoft's newest videogame consoles. Some gaming-related graphics applications have also helped bolster its successful data center business and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.In 2022, gaming accounted for $6.8 billion of AMD's revenue, or 29% of the company's $23.6 billion total. That revenue did not compensate for rising operating and acquisition costs as 2022 net income fell to $1.3 billion versus $3.2 billion in 2021.Nonetheless, investors have bid AMD stock higher amid excitement over AI in recent weeks. And though falling profits took its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio to 106, the forward P/E ratio of 31 implies the stock may not be as expensive as it appears. Such conditions indicate that AMD could benefit from a longer-term recovery in gaming despite the recent surge in the stock price.2. Sea LimitedSea Limited may be less familiar to U.S.-based investors. After all, most of its business takes place in Southeast Asia.Some investors might know Sea Limited by its Shopee e-commerce platform or its fintech segment, Sea Money. However, the company started with its gaming segment, Garena. And while Garena consists of numerous games, such as Speed Drifter and Arena of Valor, its most popular game is Free Fire, a battle royale game. Free Fire was the most popular downloaded mobile game globally from 2019 to 2021.Revenue in Sea Limited's digital entertainment segment, which includes Garena, fell by 10.3% in 2022. But despite Free Fire's recent weakness, the segment still comprised $3.9 billion of the company's $12.4 billion in revenue in 2022. Meanwhile, growth in its e-commerce and digital financial service segments kept Sea Limited on course. As a result, overall revenue rose by 25%.Moreover, the cost of revenue and operating expense growth grew at a slower pace. Hence, the 2022 loss of $1.7 billion was less than 2021's $2 billion loss. With that improvement, the stock has recovered significantly, more than doubling in value from the low of just under $41 per share in November.Also, valuations remain relatively reasonable despite that gain, staying below 4 times sales. This compares to early 2021, when the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio exceeded 30. That low sales multiple could mean the stock will surge higher amid a likely resurgence in online gaming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":459,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9941154560,"gmtCreate":1680076067850,"gmtModify":1680076071274,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9941154560","repostId":"1113728387","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":307,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923790449,"gmtCreate":1670902265681,"gmtModify":1676538457395,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9923790449","repostId":"1132120188","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1132120188","pubTimestamp":1670899817,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1132120188?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-13 10:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Stock Ends at Fresh Two-Year Low, Bucking Broader Market Trend","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1132120188","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Tesla stock has lost 53% this yearAn aerial view of Tesla’s factory in California in October.

I wrote an article back in November, entitled &#34;Why The Insiders Are Selling&#34;, to analyze the insider selling activities preceding the Q3 earnings. And the key thesis is that:</p><blockquote><i>The dominant selling volume occurred in a range from $7.5 to $8.5, effectively forming a ceiling for its stock prices in the near term. And after a Kelly bet size analysis, I have to conclude that the insiders&#39; sell decisions are the right call.</i></blockquote><p>In this article, I will switch the focus and look at the stock from the options market. And the main thesis is that the stock now offers a good setup for a put option play. And first, let me start with a recap of its Q3 results and the uncertainties I see ahead. Its Q3 revenue came in at $477.88M, translating into an annual growth rate of 21.9% YOY and beating consensus estimates slightly by $2.92M, while it is still struggling with its bottom line. Its Q3 Non-GAAP EPS dialed in at $0.01 and missed consensus estimates by $0.01.</p><p>What is more concerning is the cloudy outlook. Its Q3 earnings report (&#34;ER&#34;) cited several headwinds, which are very likely to persist over the next few quarters the way I see things. For example, it now expects Q4 sales in a range of $503M and $505M, below consensus estimates of $505.9M. With this adjusted guidance, it is also likely that PLTR would miss its 30% annual revenue growth target this year. At a more fundamental level, I also see strong headwinds coming from intensified competition in the years ahead from other enterprise software stalwarts, defense contractors, and/or even in-house development teams from its own customers. The dimmed view of its outlook and large uncertainties are vividly displayed in the earnings estimates for the next few quarters on the following chart.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d1a55aa00e7dc60b70442db5513d75ed\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"220\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: www.marketbeat.com</p><p>The market response to this cloudy outlook was quite brutal. Its stock price plunged nearly 12% under tremendous selling pressure shortly after the ER. The stock has been trading in the $7 to $8 range since then. Currently, the short interest hovers around 7.02%, among the highest level since Q2 2021 as you can see from the following MarketBeat data. To wit, its current short volume sits at 121.49 million shares, translating into 7.02% of the float size (1,730 million shares). Compared to the short volume in the previous month (119.57 million shares), the short interest rose by 1.61% MOM. In addition to the above uncertainties in the business fundamentals and also the selling pressure, the stock is also trading at quite an expensive valuation (more on this later). As such, I have a pretty bearish view on the stock.</p><p>In case you share the same bearish view, the remainder of this article will argue that the current conditions present a good setup for a put option play to express this view.

Its current P/E (170x) probably is meaningless given the negligible EPS currently (recall it is $0.01 for this quarter). Even when we look forward to two or three years (i.e., in 2023 and 2024), you can see that its P/Es are still in an extremely lofty range of 34x to 46x. And keep in mind that these P/E are quoted based on the midpoint of their EPS forecasts, while the variance among the forecasts is huge as seen.

And if the price does fall to $6, the put option would be worth $2 (the intrinsic value) plus whatever the time value is left in the option, leading to a reward/risk ratio of at least 263% ($2/$0.76 of premium).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbd608c6bb43a65b5de4facb8218659e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"170\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><h2>Risks and final thoughts</h2><p>Since the thesis is a bearish thesis with a long put option play, I want to mention both the fundamental upside risks and also the risks associated with options (primarily for investors new to options).

I wrote an article back in November, entitled \"Why The Insiders Are Selling\", to analyze the insider selling activities preceding the Q3 earnings. And the key thesis is that:The dominant selling volume occurred in a range from $7.5 to $8.5, effectively forming a ceiling for its stock prices in the near term. And after a Kelly bet size analysis, I have to conclude that the insiders' sell decisions are the right call.In this article, I will switch the focus and look at the stock from the options market. And the main thesis is that the stock now offers a good setup for a put option play. And first, let me start with a recap of its Q3 results and the uncertainties I see ahead. Its Q3 revenue came in at $477.88M, translating into an annual growth rate of 21.9% YOY and beating consensus estimates slightly by $2.92M, while it is still struggling with its bottom line. Its Q3 Non-GAAP EPS dialed in at $0.01 and missed consensus estimates by $0.01.What is more concerning is the cloudy outlook. Its Q3 earnings report (\"ER\") cited several headwinds, which are very likely to persist over the next few quarters the way I see things. For example, it now expects Q4 sales in a range of $503M and $505M, below consensus estimates of $505.9M. With this adjusted guidance, it is also likely that PLTR would miss its 30% annual revenue growth target this year. At a more fundamental level, I also see strong headwinds coming from intensified competition in the years ahead from other enterprise software stalwarts, defense contractors, and/or even in-house development teams from its own customers. The dimmed view of its outlook and large uncertainties are vividly displayed in the earnings estimates for the next few quarters on the following chart.Source: www.marketbeat.comThe market response to this cloudy outlook was quite brutal. Its stock price plunged nearly 12% under tremendous selling pressure shortly after the ER. The stock has been trading in the $7 to $8 range since then. Currently, the short interest hovers around 7.02%, among the highest level since Q2 2021 as you can see from the following MarketBeat data. To wit, its current short volume sits at 121.49 million shares, translating into 7.02% of the float size (1,730 million shares). Compared to the short volume in the previous month (119.57 million shares), the short interest rose by 1.61% MOM. In addition to the above uncertainties in the business fundamentals and also the selling pressure, the stock is also trading at quite an expensive valuation (more on this later). As such, I have a pretty bearish view on the stock.In case you share the same bearish view, the remainder of this article will argue that the current conditions present a good setup for a put option play to express this view. Next, you will see that despite the very uncertain outlook and large selling pressures, its option premiums are quite low, providing a skewed risk/return profile.Source: www.marketbeat.comSource: www.marketbeat.comPLTR's put optionThe options market is pricing its implied volatility (\"IV\") around 62% to 65% as you can see from the following chart for near-the-money put options expiring on Feb 17, 2023.

What kind of problem is this, one may ask? Well, by sitting on idle mass of liquidity that isn&#39;t used is actually a cost both in terms of management and in terms of loss of purchasing power due to inflation. In addition, Apple had most of its cash outside the U.S. in its foreign subsidiaries and it kept it there in order to avoid repatriation taxes. When the tax reform was approved with the 15.5% repatriation tax rate, Apple started to repatriate $250 billion. This was reported in early 2018. Soon thereafter, Apple disclosed that it would become a cash neutral company.</p><p>In this article, I would like to go over the idea of cash neutrality for those who haven&#39;t yet heard of it and I would like to link this strategy to see how, once it is achieved, it will impact the company&#39;s huge buybacks.</p><h2>What is cash neutrality?</h2><p>During the Q1 2018 earnings call, Luca Maestri, Apple&#39;s CFO, first announced that the company was targeting cash neutrality. These are his words:</p><blockquote>Tax reform will allow us to pursue a more optimal capital structure for our company. Our current net cash position is $163 billion. And given the increased financial and operational flexibility from the access to our foreign cash, we are targeting to become approximately net cash neutral over time. We will provide an update to our specific capital allocation plans when we report results for our second fiscal quarter, consistent with the timing of updates that we have provided in the past.</blockquote><p>Though the idea is very simple, not everyone participating in the earnings call seemed to understand it well and this led Tim Cook to a further explanation:</p><blockquote>What Luca is saying is not cash equals zero. He&#39;s saying there&#39;s an equal amount cash and debt, and that they balance to zero. Just for clarity.</blockquote><p>Now it is clear: cash neutrality means that the net debt position is equal to zero, where cash and debt balance each other. If a company has excess cash, it can reach cash neutrality in two ways: it either lowers its available cash or it raises debt.</p><p>Of course, Apple saw the tax reform as a big opportunity that gave new flexibility thanks to the access to the foreign cash. Before the reform, in fact, Apple used to raise debt to have more available cash in the U.S. as the majority of the cash was overseas. At the beginning of 2018, Apple had $285 billion of cash and $122 billion of debt for a net cash position of $163 billion. Since then the company has been able to deploy this capital. Luca Maestri explained how the company would be in no rush to use all this new available cash at one:</p><blockquote>We will do that overtime, because the amount is very large. As I said earlier, we will be discussing capital allocation plans when we review our March quarter results. And when you look at our track record of what we’ve done over the last several years, you’ve seen that effectively we were returning to our investors essentially about 100% of our free cash flow. And so that is the approach that we’re going to be taking. We’re going to be very thoughtful and deliberate about it. Obviously, we want to make the right decisions in the best interest of our long-term shareholders.</blockquote><p>However, one thing was clear: excess cash will be returned to the shareholders. It is actually what we learn in business school: only cash that can&#39;t be deployed at a high rate of return should be returned to the shareholders in order to make them decide how to deploy it.</p><p>In the following earnings call for Q2 2018, Luca Maestri addressed once again what Apple was thinking about its use of capital:</p><blockquote>The biggest priorities for our cash have not changed over the years. We want to maintain the cash we need to fund our day-to-day operations, to invest in our future, and to provide flexibility so that we can respond effectively to the strategic opportunities we encounter along the way. As we said 90 days ago, the new tax legislation enacted in December gives us increased financial and operational flexibility from the access to our global cash. It allows us to invest for growth in the United States more efficiently and it also provides us the opportunity to work towards a more optimal capital structure. As we said in February, our goal is to become approximately net cash neutral over time.</blockquote><p>In this way, he made it clear that Apple will keep for itself all the cash it needs not only to operate but also to invest and keep on growing. Let&#39;s put it in another way: Apple will fund its operations with its own cash, without using a lot of debt. From these words it is now clearer that Apple will reach cash neutrality mostly by lowering its cash rather than increasing its debt.</p><p>The company could actually raise more debt without many problems because it could simultaneously make some investments that could return an interest income able to completely offset debt interest. However, this doesn&#39;t seem the way Apple wants to take.</p><p>So, how has Apple used its excess cash in these years? The answer is quite simple: share repurchases have been the preferred use of cash, followed by the dividend. In the graph below I wanted to show this starting from 2017, the year before Apple announced its strategy.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/162d9275fec30efad34d606d47c71977\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"295\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Author, with data from Seeking Alpha</p><p></p><p>As we can see, Apple more than doubles its share repurchases moving up from $34.77 billion in 2017 to $75.27 billion in 2018. Since then, the company has spent $409 billion just to repurchase its outstanding shares. This has allowed the company to be rather flat in the amount of dividends it is paying. As we can see, in 2018 the company spent $13.71 billion, in 2019 it spent $14.12 billion and in the past year it was just at $14.84. However, Apple&#39;s five-year dividend growth rate is above 8% and this is thanks to the massive share repurchases the company has done.</p><h2>Concerns</h2><p>Some investors are concerned that once Apple will have achieved cash neutrality, its share repurchase program will end or will significantly decrease, causing downward pressure on the stock. However, who fears this forgets that Apple generates an in-pouring flow of free cash flow that is actually growing at a very fast pace actually doubling in the past five years ($41 billion in 2017, $92 billion in 2022).</p><h2>When Apple reaches cash neutrality, it will have to increase buybacks once again</h2><p>I ran a simulation which assumes that in the next five years, Apple will grow its free cash flow by 10% and will increase its share repurchases by 7.7% annually. In the meantime, it will increase its dividend growth by 5% and will increase its debt by 4%. Based on these assumptions, Apple should reach a positive net debt position between 2025 and 2026.

What kind of problem is this, one may ask? Well, by sitting on idle mass of liquidity that isn't used is actually a cost both in terms of management and in terms of loss of purchasing power due to inflation. In addition, Apple had most of its cash outside the U.S. in its foreign subsidiaries and it kept it there in order to avoid repatriation taxes. When the tax reform was approved with the 15.5% repatriation tax rate, Apple started to repatriate $250 billion. This was reported in early 2018. Soon thereafter, Apple disclosed that it would become a cash neutral company.In this article, I would like to go over the idea of cash neutrality for those who haven't yet heard of it and I would like to link this strategy to see how, once it is achieved, it will impact the company's huge buybacks.What is cash neutrality?During the Q1 2018 earnings call, Luca Maestri, Apple's CFO, first announced that the company was targeting cash neutrality. These are his words:Tax reform will allow us to pursue a more optimal capital structure for our company. Our current net cash position is $163 billion. And given the increased financial and operational flexibility from the access to our foreign cash, we are targeting to become approximately net cash neutral over time. We will provide an update to our specific capital allocation plans when we report results for our second fiscal quarter, consistent with the timing of updates that we have provided in the past.Though the idea is very simple, not everyone participating in the earnings call seemed to understand it well and this led Tim Cook to a further explanation:What Luca is saying is not cash equals zero. He's saying there's an equal amount cash and debt, and that they balance to zero. Just for clarity.Now it is clear: cash neutrality means that the net debt position is equal to zero, where cash and debt balance each other. If a company has excess cash, it can reach cash neutrality in two ways: it either lowers its available cash or it raises debt.Of course, Apple saw the tax reform as a big opportunity that gave new flexibility thanks to the access to the foreign cash. Before the reform, in fact, Apple used to raise debt to have more available cash in the U.S. as the majority of the cash was overseas. At the beginning of 2018, Apple had $285 billion of cash and $122 billion of debt for a net cash position of $163 billion. Since then the company has been able to deploy this capital. Luca Maestri explained how the company would be in no rush to use all this new available cash at one:We will do that overtime, because the amount is very large. As I said earlier, we will be discussing capital allocation plans when we review our March quarter results. And when you look at our track record of what we’ve done over the last several years, you’ve seen that effectively we were returning to our investors essentially about 100% of our free cash flow. And so that is the approach that we’re going to be taking. We’re going to be very thoughtful and deliberate about it. Obviously, we want to make the right decisions in the best interest of our long-term shareholders.However, one thing was clear: excess cash will be returned to the shareholders. It is actually what we learn in business school: only cash that can't be deployed at a high rate of return should be returned to the shareholders in order to make them decide how to deploy it.In the following earnings call for Q2 2018, Luca Maestri addressed once again what Apple was thinking about its use of capital:The biggest priorities for our cash have not changed over the years. We want to maintain the cash we need to fund our day-to-day operations, to invest in our future, and to provide flexibility so that we can respond effectively to the strategic opportunities we encounter along the way. As we said 90 days ago, the new tax legislation enacted in December gives us increased financial and operational flexibility from the access to our global cash. It allows us to invest for growth in the United States more efficiently and it also provides us the opportunity to work towards a more optimal capital structure. As we said in February, our goal is to become approximately net cash neutral over time.In this way, he made it clear that Apple will keep for itself all the cash it needs not only to operate but also to invest and keep on growing. Let's put it in another way: Apple will fund its operations with its own cash, without using a lot of debt. From these words it is now clearer that Apple will reach cash neutrality mostly by lowering its cash rather than increasing its debt.The company could actually raise more debt without many problems because it could simultaneously make some investments that could return an interest income able to completely offset debt interest. However, this doesn't seem the way Apple wants to take.So, how has Apple used its excess cash in these years? The answer is quite simple: share repurchases have been the preferred use of cash, followed by the dividend. In the graph below I wanted to show this starting from 2017, the year before Apple announced its strategy.Author, with data from Seeking AlphaAs we can see, Apple more than doubles its share repurchases moving up from $34.77 billion in 2017 to $75.27 billion in 2018. Since then, the company has spent $409 billion just to repurchase its outstanding shares. This has allowed the company to be rather flat in the amount of dividends it is paying. As we can see, in 2018 the company spent $13.71 billion, in 2019 it spent $14.12 billion and in the past year it was just at $14.84. However, Apple's five-year dividend growth rate is above 8% and this is thanks to the massive share repurchases the company has done.ConcernsSome investors are concerned that once Apple will have achieved cash neutrality, its share repurchase program will end or will significantly decrease, causing downward pressure on the stock. However, who fears this forgets that Apple generates an in-pouring flow of free cash flow that is actually growing at a very fast pace actually doubling in the past five years ($41 billion in 2017, $92 billion in 2022).When Apple reaches cash neutrality, it will have to increase buybacks once againI ran a simulation which assumes that in the next five years, Apple will grow its free cash flow by 10% and will increase its share repurchases by 7.7% annually. In the meantime, it will increase its dividend growth by 5% and will increase its debt by 4%. Based on these assumptions, Apple should reach a positive net debt position between 2025 and 2026. However, take a look at what happens in 2027. I also assumed that shares will appreciate 10% annually in order to estimate how many outstanding shares the company will be able to repurchase through its buybacks.AuthorLet's use a graph instead a table. We see that at this pace, Apple will reach cash neutrality in 2025 but in just two years it will be heading back to where it came from: excess cash.Author forecastSo, what will the company have to do in order to keep its cash neutral position? According to its culture, it will have to increase once again share repurchases and its dividends.The reason is simple: Apple's free cash flow is massive and it can really grow by 10% a year. This will keep on creating a massive amount of liquidity that Apple has to return to its shareholders, which will happily receive it.Of course, these are estimates based on many assumptions. But I think the trajectory is quite clear and foreseeable.This is why I am not worried, but I am actually pleased by the endeavor Apple has undertaken to reach cash neutrality. It is, in my opinion, another sign of how highly efficient this company is, making it a true cornerstone of my portfolio.ConclusionThis article ideally follows another one I recently published to show how Apple is managing its balance sheet with carefulness and attention, making it more efficient than other big tech companies such as Google (GOOG) (GOOGL).

Furthermore, it appears its U.S. commercial business is gaining traction, as enterprises are investing in big data analytics to drive competitive advantage, even though Europe has been more reluctant to adopt Palantir's platform.However, doubts over Palantir's ultimate profitability, as well as some of its questionable investments, show another side of the thesis -- that of a potentially reckless spender and undisciplined management, with a questionable path to profitability.With real GAAP profits a ways off and several of its investees running into trouble, November was a month in which the negative side came to the fore for Palantir shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":290,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982231933,"gmtCreate":1667182619223,"gmtModify":1676537872632,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9982231933","repostId":"1130378483","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1130378483","pubTimestamp":1666661883,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1130378483?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-25 09:38","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"These 5 Solid Blue-Chip Stocks Are Hitting a 52-Week Low: Are They a Bargain?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1130378483","media":"The Smart Investor","summary":"During times of economic stress, it’s always good to rely on something steady to calm our nerves.Whe","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>During times of economic stress, it’s always good to rely on something steady to calm our nerves.</p><p>When it comes to investing, blue-chip stocks evoke images of stability, certainty and safety.</p><p>The world is currently beset by the dual problems of high inflation and rising interest rates.</p><p>Even Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has warned of an impending recession in either 2023 or 2024.</p><p>Although the mood is bearish, you can view this as a great opportunity to scoop up shares of solid companies for the long term.</p><p>And with numerous companies’ share prices touching a year low, there could be bargains that are ripe for the picking.</p><p>Here are five reliable blue-chip stocks that may end up on your buy watchlist.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/S68.SI\">Singapore Exchange Limited</a></h3><p>Singapore Exchange Limited, or SGX, is Singapore’s sole stock exchange operator.</p><p>The bourse operator has seen its shares slide by close to 13% in one year to hit a 52-week low of S$8.32.</p><p>Despite the fall, SGX reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2022 (FY2022) ending 30 June 2022.</p><p>Revenue inched up 4% year on year to S$1.1 billion, a new record since the group’s IPO, while net profit edged up 1% year on year to S$451 million.</p><p>A dividend of S$0.32 was paid for FY2022, similar to a year ago.</p><p>SGX enjoys a natural monopoly and its multi-asset platform continues to attract investors who are looking for different ways to invest and hedge their investment portfolios.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/9CI.SI\">CapitaLand Investment Limited</a></h3><p>CapitaLand Investment Limited, or CLI, is a real estate investment manager (REIM) with S$125 billion of property assets under management (AUM) and S$86 billion of funds under management as of 30 June 2022.</p><p>CLI has seen its share price slide to a year-low of S$3.24, down 4.1%.</p><p>The property giant has reported a robust set of earnings for its fiscal 2022’s first half (1H2022).</p><p>Revenue jumped 29.1% year on year to S$1.35 billion while operating profit after tax (excluding one-off effects) rose 31.1% year on year to S$346 million.</p><p>CLI also reported higher fee-related earnings and added more lodging units under its lodging management arm.</p><p>The group targets to grow its funds under management to S$100 billion by 2024 and expand its lodging units to 160,000 (current: 139,000) by 2023.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BUOU.SI\">Frasers Logistics &amp;

asset class for consistent and dependable distributions since the very first REIT, CapitaMall Trust, was listed back in 2002.</p><p>Two decades on, Singapore is now well-known for being a REIT hub.</p><p>However, of late, the sector has come under pressure.</p><p>Share prices of popular REITs such as <b>Mapletree Logistics Trust</b>(SGX: M44U) and <b>Frasers Centrepoint Trust</b>(SGX: J69U) have hit their 52-week lows.</p><p>Several foreign REITs such as <b>Cromwell European REIT</b>(SGX: CWBU) are also hitting multi-year lows.</p><p>These declines are worrisome as they imply a loss of confidence in the REIT sector.</p><p>Should investors be worried?</p><p>Or could this be a golden opportunity to scoop up attractive bargains?</p><p><b>Reasons for the plunge</b></p><p>A key reason why REIT prices are plunging is because of a sharp increase in interest rates.</p><p>The US Federal Reserve has hiked its policy rate by 0.75 percentage points over three consecutive sessions, taking the benchmark rate to a range of between 3% to 3.25%.</p><p>As all REITs hold debt, an increase in interest rates will raise borrowing costs for them, thus crimping the amount of distributable income they can pay out.</p><p>The US central bank has made these moves in response to the highest inflation the country has seen in four decades.</p><p>The latest inflation reading in the US, at 8.2% for August, has done little to quell rumours that yet another large rate hike is on the cards.</p><p>If the Federal Reserve makes a similar move in early November, benchmark rates could hit 4%, a level unseen since the Great Financial Crisis in 2008.</p><p>For REITs, surging inflation will also increase operating expenses such as electricity, marketing and staff costs, resulting in less distributable income to dole out to unitholders.</p><p>The combination of the two – sky-high inflation and rising interest rates is causing significant concern among investors as to whether REITs can maintain their distribution per unit (DPU).</p><p>A third factor is also at play.</p><p>Investors who are looking for alternatives to park their money can now seek interest-free instruments such as Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) and fixed deposits.</p><p>The former is paying out a 10-year average return of 3.21% while the latter has seen rates hit as high as 2.6% to 2.7% for a 12-month and 24-month tenure.</p><p>Risk appetites are declining and this is evident as more people yank their money out of REITs and into “safe havens”.</p><p><b>DPU and asset values may decline</b></p><p>Some of these fears could be justified.</p><p>REITs will come under pressure and DPU may decline in the coming quarters.</p><p>In addition, REIT property values may also fall when the assets are up for revaluation.</p><p>Property values are usually computed by independent property agencies based on a capitalisation rate (cap rate).</p><p>The property’s net operating income (i.e. rental income minus expenses) is divided by this cap rate to obtain the property’s valuation.</p><p>With interest rates heading up, assuming a similar level of net operating income, the denominator will increase for this equation, thus resulting in lower property values.</p><p>As REIT gearing levels are predicated on its asset base, a decline in asset valuation will result in gearing levels increasing even without the REIT taking on additional loans.</p><p>Another factor to consider is exchange rates.</p><p>The Japanese Yen has weakened by close to 24% against the Singapore dollar (SGD) in the past year.</p><p>The British pound (£) has declined by 13% against the SGD over the same period.</p><p>Exchange movements have impacted REITs such as <b>Daiwa House Logistics Trust</b>(SGX: DHLU) and <b>Elite Commercial REIT</b>(SGX: MXNU).</p><p>With the need to convert their distributions to SGD even though their base rental income is in Yen or £, investors are seeing a possible DPU decline looming.</p><p><b>Mitigating factors</b></p><p>There are reasons to be optimistic, though.</p><p>REITs have several mitigating factors in place to buffer against these rising expenses.</p><p><b>Frasers Logistics &amp; Commercial Trust</b>(SGX: BUOU) has a very low gearing of just 29.2% as of 30 June 2022, thus mitigating against a rise in gearing due to declining property values.</p><p>Having a high proportion of fixed-rate debt and a well-spread-out debt maturity are also some measures that REITs possess to guard against sharply higher finance costs.</p><p>Furthermore, REITs with strong sponsors will also have a ready pipeline of assets to tap into for acquisitions to boost DPU and offset the effects of higher costs.</p><p><b>Get Smart:

proven themselves as reliable dividend payers over the years.Income-seeking investors have tapped into this asset class for consistent and dependable distributions since the very first REIT, CapitaMall Trust, was listed back in 2002.Two decades on, Singapore is now well-known for being a REIT hub.However, of late, the sector has come under pressure.Share prices of popular REITs such as Mapletree Logistics Trust(SGX: M44U) and Frasers Centrepoint Trust(SGX: J69U) have hit their 52-week lows.Several foreign REITs such as Cromwell European REIT(SGX: CWBU) are also hitting multi-year lows.These declines are worrisome as they imply a loss of confidence in the REIT sector.Should investors be worried?Or could this be a golden opportunity to scoop up attractive bargains?Reasons for the plungeA key reason why REIT prices are plunging is because of a sharp increase in interest rates.The US Federal Reserve has hiked its policy rate by 0.75 percentage points over three consecutive sessions, taking the benchmark rate to a range of between 3% to 3.25%.As all REITs hold debt, an increase in interest rates will raise borrowing costs for them, thus crimping the amount of distributable income they can pay out.The US central bank has made these moves in response to the highest inflation the country has seen in four decades.The latest inflation reading in the US, at 8.2% for August, has done little to quell rumours that yet another large rate hike is on the cards.If the Federal Reserve makes a similar move in early November, benchmark rates could hit 4%, a level unseen since the Great Financial Crisis in 2008.For REITs, surging inflation will also increase operating expenses such as electricity, marketing and staff costs, resulting in less distributable income to dole out to unitholders.The combination of the two – sky-high inflation and rising interest rates is causing significant concern among investors as to whether REITs can maintain their distribution per unit (DPU).A third factor is also at play.Investors who are looking for alternatives to park their money can now seek interest-free instruments such as Singapore Savings Bonds (SSBs) and fixed deposits.The former is paying out a 10-year average return of 3.21% while the latter has seen rates hit as high as 2.6% to 2.7% for a 12-month and 24-month tenure.Risk appetites are declining and this is evident as more people yank their money out of REITs and into “safe havens”.DPU and asset values may declineSome of these fears could be justified.REITs will come under pressure and DPU may decline in the coming quarters.In addition, REIT property values may also fall when the assets are up for revaluation.Property values are usually computed by independent property agencies based on a capitalisation rate (cap rate).The property’s net operating income (i.e. rental income minus expenses) is divided by this cap rate to obtain the property’s valuation.With interest rates heading up, assuming a similar level of net operating income, the denominator will increase for this equation, thus resulting in lower property values.As REIT gearing levels are predicated on its asset base, a decline in asset valuation will result in gearing levels increasing even without the REIT taking on additional loans.Another factor to consider is exchange rates.The Japanese Yen has weakened by close to 24% against the Singapore dollar (SGD) in the past year.The British pound (£) has declined by 13% against the SGD over the same period.Exchange movements have impacted REITs such as Daiwa House Logistics Trust(SGX: DHLU) and Elite Commercial REIT(SGX: MXNU).With the need to convert their distributions to SGD even though their base rental income is in Yen or £, investors are seeing a possible DPU decline looming.Mitigating factorsThere are reasons to be optimistic, though.REITs have several mitigating factors in place to buffer against these rising expenses.Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust(SGX: BUOU) has a very low gearing of just 29.2% as of 30 June 2022, thus mitigating against a rise in gearing due to declining property values.Having a high proportion of fixed-rate debt and a well-spread-out debt maturity are also some measures that REITs possess to guard against sharply higher finance costs.Furthermore, REITs with strong sponsors will also have a ready pipeline of assets to tap into for acquisitions to boost DPU and offset the effects of higher costs.Get Smart: Watch and learnSource: MacrotrendsThe world is seeing a new, high-interest-rate phase that has not been witnessed in nearly 14 years.The chart above shows that rates have only gone past the 5% mark once in the last two decades.It’s a whole new world for investors and also a different environment for REITs.Investors should watch and learn and continue to monitor how REITs adjust to this new paradigm.There’s cause for worry, but if you stick with the strong REITs, you can still enjoy a good night’s sleep.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":284,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9989610527,"gmtCreate":1665984718669,"gmtModify":1676537687709,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good

Especially if we sell significantly out of the money.</p><p>Doing this in a down market allows long-term investors to reinvest the premiums in stocks that are on sale.</p><p>2022 has been an ideal time for selling covered call options. And Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has been an ideal stock.</p><h2>Who says stock splits don&#39;t matter?</h2><p>There are many who will say that stock splits don&#39;t matter. After all, they don&#39;t change the underlying value of the stock. But they do open up opportunities that average investors usually would not have.</p><p>Amazon stock traded for around $2,500 per share prior to its 20:1 stock split in early June 2022. This means that an investor would need to have $250,000 of Amazon stock in order to sell one option since options are sold in lots of 100. The split suddenly opened up the options market for many average investors.</p><p>Amazon has traits that make it an attractive candidate for selling covered calls. Its popularity is a huge draw. There is a ton of volume for Amazon stock options, which is very important. It also means that the stock has the necessary ups and downs to book profits. There are numerous spikes and retreats since the stock split, as shown below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c945c2f8af9bef6ac53cb398dad6cd9f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>My preferred strategy</p><p>There are several ways to execute an option strategy. I prefer a conservative strategy since Amazon is a stock that I would like to hold as a long-term investment.</p><p>The conservative strategy means:</p><ul><li>Selling the options well out of the money, even though this means pocketing a smaller premium.</li><li>Keeping the option expiration date 30-60 days out. This also means a smaller premium, but much less risk.</li><li>Not having open option positions straddling earnings releases when the stock could potentially pop significantly to the upside.</li></ul><p>Here are two examples</p><p>Amazon&#39;s stock price dropped like a rock after the stock split, falling nearly 18% in just over a week. It then bounced up more than 5% on June 15th, as shown below.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88f970aad49f45dcb2c17b4bbaa8169a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data byYCharts</p><p><b>Trade example #1:</b></p><p>I used this opportunity to sell July 29 $135 calls for $0.74. The $74 premium isn&#39;t much, but the chances of the stock getting called away were very small. The stock would need to gain more than 25% in a month and a half to get to the strike price. Unlikely in a bear market.</p><p>The stock made an impressive effort at a comeback, but I was able to close the covered call position for $0.17 when the stock cratered on July 26th, as shown below.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7767afe90b4cf2cf6bd90cebe9652155\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data byYCharts</p><p>The net profit on each call option was $57 for an annualized return of over 4%. Low risk, low reward.</p><p><b>Trade example #2:</b></p><p>The market made a valiant effort at a comeback after the lows of June and July, but the comeback ultimately fizzled in late August. With the writing on the wall, I sold October 21 $147.50 and $147.00 calls for $1.05 and $1.15, respectively. The chart leading up to the trade is shown below.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b91b7ebf9d32e09dff47164956e9ec5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data byYCharts</p><p>I bought back each option just two weeks later, on September 22, for $0.15 and $0.16 as the stock swooned. I could have held the options to maturity, but I like to lock in gains when they are above 80%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6b7f2bf35de21da4781323d8b278d1f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data byYCharts</p><p>The spoils of the trade were $90 and $99 for a total return of $189. The annualized return is impressive because of the short duration, but this is another low-risk, low-reward way to generate a yield from a growth stock.</p><p>With earnings due out on October 27, I am taking a wait-and-see approach. A solid earnings report could mean a sudden pop in the stock price because so much negativity is priced in already.</p><h2>Understand the risks</h2><p>Covered call options are low-risk, but they aren&#39;t risk-free. The risk is that the stock rises significantly above the strike price, and we miss out on juicy gains. If the price is above the strike price on the exercise date, we will have to give up our shares or buy back the call at a loss. We can mitigate the risk by taking smaller premiums for options that are further out of the money.</p><h2>The wrap-up</h2><p>This is a tough time for many investors. But it also offers significant opportunities. It&#39;s much easier for long-term investors to find fantastic deals when the market is down. Higher dividend yields are easier to find, and it&#39;s a great time to reevaluate positions.</p><p>Executing a conservative covered call strategy can also generate income. Selling covered calls is a low-risk way to generate a yield from growth stocks and make small returns in a persistent down market. As discussed above, Amazon is an excellent stock for this approach.</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>The Amazon Stock Split Is Paying Me Dividends.

If you sell an out-of-the-money covered call, the worst that can happen is that you miss out on additional gains.Volatility is helpful to this strategy because it allows us to sell a covered call when the stock has a big up day, and buy it back cheaper when the stock retreats.The general downtrend lowers the risk that the price will suddenly rise well above the strike price. Especially if we sell significantly out of the money.Doing this in a down market allows long-term investors to reinvest the premiums in stocks that are on sale.2022 has been an ideal time for selling covered call options. And Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has been an ideal stock.Who says stock splits don't matter?There are many who will say that stock splits don't matter. After all, they don't change the underlying value of the stock. But they do open up opportunities that average investors usually would not have.Amazon stock traded for around $2,500 per share prior to its 20:1 stock split in early June 2022. This means that an investor would need to have $250,000 of Amazon stock in order to sell one option since options are sold in lots of 100. The split suddenly opened up the options market for many average investors.Amazon has traits that make it an attractive candidate for selling covered calls. Its popularity is a huge draw. There is a ton of volume for Amazon stock options, which is very important. It also means that the stock has the necessary ups and downs to book profits. There are numerous spikes and retreats since the stock split, as shown below.Data by YChartsMy preferred strategyThere are several ways to execute an option strategy. I prefer a conservative strategy since Amazon is a stock that I would like to hold as a long-term investment.The conservative strategy means:Selling the options well out of the money, even though this means pocketing a smaller premium.Keeping the option expiration date 30-60 days out. This also means a smaller premium, but much less risk.Not having open option positions straddling earnings releases when the stock could potentially pop significantly to the upside.Here are two examplesAmazon's stock price dropped like a rock after the stock split, falling nearly 18% in just over a week. It then bounced up more than 5% on June 15th, as shown below.Data byYChartsTrade example #1:I used this opportunity to sell July 29 $135 calls for $0.74. The $74 premium isn't much, but the chances of the stock getting called away were very small. The stock would need to gain more than 25% in a month and a half to get to the strike price. Unlikely in a bear market.The stock made an impressive effort at a comeback, but I was able to close the covered call position for $0.17 when the stock cratered on July 26th, as shown below.Data byYChartsThe net profit on each call option was $57 for an annualized return of over 4%. Low risk, low reward.Trade example #2:The market made a valiant effort at a comeback after the lows of June and July, but the comeback ultimately fizzled in late August. With the writing on the wall, I sold October 21 $147.50 and $147.00 calls for $1.05 and $1.15, respectively. The chart leading up to the trade is shown below.Data byYChartsI bought back each option just two weeks later, on September 22, for $0.15 and $0.16 as the stock swooned. I could have held the options to maturity, but I like to lock in gains when they are above 80%.Data byYChartsThe spoils of the trade were $90 and $99 for a total return of $189. The annualized return is impressive because of the short duration, but this is another low-risk, low-reward way to generate a yield from a growth stock.With earnings due out on October 27, I am taking a wait-and-see approach. A solid earnings report could mean a sudden pop in the stock price because so much negativity is priced in already.Understand the risksCovered call options are low-risk, but they aren't risk-free. The risk is that the stock rises significantly above the strike price, and we miss out on juicy gains. If the price is above the strike price on the exercise date, we will have to give up our shares or buy back the call at a loss. We can mitigate the risk by taking smaller premiums for options that are further out of the money.The wrap-upThis is a tough time for many investors. But it also offers significant opportunities. It's much easier for long-term investors to find fantastic deals when the market is down. Higher dividend yields are easier to find, and it's a great time to reevaluate positions.Executing a conservative covered call strategy can also generate income. Selling covered calls is a low-risk way to generate a yield from growth stocks and make small returns in a persistent down market. As discussed above, Amazon is an excellent stock for this approach.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":325,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9980504461,"gmtCreate":1665758838053,"gmtModify":1676537660997,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SOFI\">$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SOFI\">$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9980504461","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":173,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9980275087,"gmtCreate":1665756327549,"gmtModify":1676537660549,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good!&nbsp;","listText":"Good!&nbsp;","text":"Good!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9980275087","repostId":"1150944805","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9980699887,"gmtCreate":1665710790549,"gmtModify":1676537652875,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9980699887","repostId":"1105845430","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1105845430","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1665708334,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1105845430?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-14 08:45","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Central Bank Tightens Policy, Q3 GDP Tops Forecast","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105845430","media":"Reuters","summary":"SINGAPORE, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Singapore's central bank on Friday tightened monetary policy for the f","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>SINGAPORE, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Singapore&#39;s central bank on Friday tightened monetary policy for the fourth time this year to rein in inflation running near a 14-year high, and left the door open for further policy action amid upside risks to the price outlook and global uncertainty.</p><p>The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), at a scheduled policy meeting, said it will re-centre the mid-point of the exchange rate policy band known as the Nominal Effective Exchange Rate, or S$NEER.

The pandemic frontloaded gaming growth in 2020 and 2021 amid the lockdowns, but after consumers returned to pre-pandemic entertainment options, revenue growth in gaming reversed. Industry analysts at Newzoo reported a 4% decline in gaming revenue in 2022, even as the number of players rose to 3.2 billion, up from 3.1 billion in 2021. That decline has hampered growth in companies that are partially or exclusively focused on gaming.</p><p>However, if Newzoo&#39;s forecast of 3.5 billion gamers by 2025 proves true, gaming investors will likely view the 2022 revenue decline as a short-term correction. After all, according to report by Axios, the revenue decline in gaming was largely based in mobile gaming, but these games are gaining popularity in new, &#34;mobile-centric regions&#34; across the world. Meanwhile, PC gaming revenue continues to grow and much of the decline in console-gaming-based revenue could be sourced in lingering supply chain and game development issues from the pandemic.</p><p>As the industry experiences a likely resumption in revenue growth, gaming should again boost the tech sector and provide a catalyst for less conventional video game stocks like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">Advanced Micro Devices </a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited </a>.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a></h2><p>AMD has gained notoriety in recent years as a semiconductor stock. Its twin expertise in CPUs (central processing units) and GPUs (graphics processing units) has made it a formidable competitor to <strong>Nvidia </strong>and <strong>Intel</strong>. Moreover, it has prospered as the company&#39;s chips have become essential to powering data centers.</p><p>But this success may lead investors to forget its longtime core competency in gaming. Under Lisa Su&#39;s leadership, AMD&#39;s revival has hinged partially on gaming, with the company winning contracts to power <strong>Sony</strong> and <strong>Microsoft</strong>&#39;s newest videogame consoles. Some gaming-related graphics applications have also helped bolster its successful data center business and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.</p><p>In 2022, gaming accounted for $6.8 billion of AMD&#39;s revenue, or 29% of the company&#39;s $23.6 billion total. That revenue did not compensate for rising operating and acquisition costs as 2022 net income fell to $1.3 billion versus $3.2 billion in 2021.</p><p>Nonetheless, investors have bid AMD stock higher amid excitement over AI in recent weeks. And though falling profits took its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio to 106, the forward P/E ratio of 31 implies the stock may not be as expensive as it appears. Such conditions indicate that AMD could benefit from a longer-term recovery in gaming despite the recent surge in the stock price.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited</a></h2><p>Sea Limited may be less familiar to U.S.-based investors. After all, most of its business takes place in Southeast Asia.</p><p>Some investors might know Sea Limited by its Shopee e-commerce platform or its fintech segment, Sea Money. However, the company started with its gaming segment, Garena. And while Garena consists of numerous games, such as <em>Speed Drifter</em> and <em>Arena of Valor</em>, its most popular game is <em>Free Fire</em>, a battle royale game. <em>Free Fire</em> was the most popular downloaded mobile game globally from 2019 to 2021.</p><p>Revenue in Sea Limited&#39;s digital entertainment segment, which includes Garena, fell by 10.3% in 2022. But despite <em>Free Fire</em>&#39;s recent weakness, the segment still comprised $3.9 billion of the company&#39;s $12.4 billion in revenue in 2022. Meanwhile, growth in its e-commerce and digital financial service segments kept Sea Limited on course. As a result, overall revenue rose by 25%.</p><p>Moreover, the cost of revenue and operating expense growth grew at a slower pace.

The pandemic frontloaded gaming growth in 2020 and 2021 amid the lockdowns, but after consumers returned to pre-pandemic entertainment options, revenue growth in gaming reversed. Industry analysts at Newzoo reported a 4% decline in gaming revenue in 2022, even as the number of players rose to 3.2 billion, up from 3.1 billion in 2021. That decline has hampered growth in companies that are partially or exclusively focused on gaming.However, if Newzoo's forecast of 3.5 billion gamers by 2025 proves true, gaming investors will likely view the 2022 revenue decline as a short-term correction. After all, according to report by Axios, the revenue decline in gaming was largely based in mobile gaming, but these games are gaining popularity in new, \"mobile-centric regions\" across the world. Meanwhile, PC gaming revenue continues to grow and much of the decline in console-gaming-based revenue could be sourced in lingering supply chain and game development issues from the pandemic.As the industry experiences a likely resumption in revenue growth, gaming should again boost the tech sector and provide a catalyst for less conventional video game stocks like Advanced Micro Devices  and Sea Limited .1. AMDAMD has gained notoriety in recent years as a semiconductor stock. Its twin expertise in CPUs (central processing units) and GPUs (graphics processing units) has made it a formidable competitor to Nvidia and Intel. Moreover, it has prospered as the company's chips have become essential to powering data centers.But this success may lead investors to forget its longtime core competency in gaming. Under Lisa Su's leadership, AMD's revival has hinged partially on gaming, with the company winning contracts to power Sony and Microsoft's newest videogame consoles. Some gaming-related graphics applications have also helped bolster its successful data center business and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.In 2022, gaming accounted for $6.8 billion of AMD's revenue, or 29% of the company's $23.6 billion total. That revenue did not compensate for rising operating and acquisition costs as 2022 net income fell to $1.3 billion versus $3.2 billion in 2021.Nonetheless, investors have bid AMD stock higher amid excitement over AI in recent weeks. And though falling profits took its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio to 106, the forward P/E ratio of 31 implies the stock may not be as expensive as it appears. Such conditions indicate that AMD could benefit from a longer-term recovery in gaming despite the recent surge in the stock price.2. Sea LimitedSea Limited may be less familiar to U.S.-based investors. After all, most of its business takes place in Southeast Asia.Some investors might know Sea Limited by its Shopee e-commerce platform or its fintech segment, Sea Money. However, the company started with its gaming segment, Garena. And while Garena consists of numerous games, such as Speed Drifter and Arena of Valor, its most popular game is Free Fire, a battle royale game. Free Fire was the most popular downloaded mobile game globally from 2019 to 2021.Revenue in Sea Limited's digital entertainment segment, which includes Garena, fell by 10.3% in 2022. But despite Free Fire's recent weakness, the segment still comprised $3.9 billion of the company's $12.4 billion in revenue in 2022. Meanwhile, growth in its e-commerce and digital financial service segments kept Sea Limited on course. As a result, overall revenue rose by 25%.Moreover, the cost of revenue and operating expense growth grew at a slower pace. Hence, the 2022 loss of $1.7 billion was less than 2021's $2 billion loss. With that improvement, the stock has recovered significantly, more than doubling in value from the low of just under $41 per share in November.Also, valuations remain relatively reasonable despite that gain, staying below 4 times sales. This compares to early 2021, when the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio exceeded 30. That low sales multiple could mean the stock will surge higher amid a likely resurgence in online gaming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":459,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9083805953,"gmtCreate":1650085755030,"gmtModify":1676534645082,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/IQ\">$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$</a>when will the&nbsp;increase happen?&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/IQ\">$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$</a>when will the&nbsp;increase happen?&nbsp;","text":"$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$when will the increase happen?","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/fdda702713dd45192cbc84b0fdd92e5a","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9083805953","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":117,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9015291684,"gmtCreate":1649481279885,"gmtModify":1676534519864,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thanks for the good analysis&nbsp;","listText":"Thanks for the good analysis&nbsp;","text":"Thanks for the good analysis","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9015291684","repostId":"2226207085","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2226207085","pubTimestamp":1649462413,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2226207085?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-09 08:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Stocks That Turned $1,000 into $10,000 (or More)","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2226207085","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These top brands have made investors plenty since 2012.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>RH</b> and <b>Netflix</b> have made their shareholders massive gains over the past 10 years.

If IDC&#39;s preliminary Q1 2023 figures are correct, 56.9 million PCs would represent a 4% decline from 59.2 million shipments in Q1 2019, and a 6% decline from 60.6 million PCs in Q1 2018.</p><p>Indeed, this is a steep pullback from the rampant consumer tech spending spree over the last couple of years.</p><p>But what may be especially concerning for investors is to see Apple PCs (like Macs and MacBook laptops) fall precipitously, at least according to IDC. The research company&#39;s preliminary estimate is that Q1 2023 Apple Mac shipments plunged 40% year over year to just 4.1 million units. That&#39;s a far steeper drop than the other top PC makers on the list: <strong>Lenovo</strong>, <strong>HP</strong>, <strong>Dell Technologies</strong>, and ASUS.  </p><h2>Don&#39;t panic just yet</h2><p>There&#39;s a caveat to Apple&#39;s PC shipments plunging far more than its peers, though. Macs and MacBooks are premium personal computers, but people are still willing to shell out the extra cash for the Apple emblem. According to IDC&#39;s estimates, Apple still commands the No. 4 spot as far as global PC market share goes, behind Lenovo, HP, and Dell.  </p><p>Apple&#39;s market share of Q1 2023 PC shipments was 7.2%. Though that&#39;s down from its low-teens percentage market share high reached at points in 2022, Apple is nevertheless holding on to its progress. In Q1 2019, before the pandemic started, Apple was in the No. 5 position in market share. At that time, it only shipped 3.9 million Macs and MacBooks, according to IDC estimates, giving it a global PC market share of only 6.6%.</p><p>Quarter-to-quarter shipments can be noisy and distracting. Thus, though Apple PC revenue might be in for some pain when the next quarter&#39;s financials are released (the report comes out May 4, 2023), it appears that Apple is still selling more PCs than it was pre-pandemic -- and commanding greater leadership than it was four years ago. If you own Apple stock, there&#39;s no need to panic. </p><h2>The market saw this coming already</h2><p>There&#39;s another reason to keep it cool: We already knew Apple Mac and MacBook sales were getting hit pretty hard. </p><p>During the last earnings call in February 2023 (for the three-month period ended December 2022), Apple said Mac revenue had fallen 29% year over year to $7.74 billion. The reason, besides a hard-hit global consumer, was a tough comparison to the year prior thanks to the MacBook Pros featuring the brand new in-house designed Apple M-series chip. Apple is now on its second-gen M2 chip, but that isn&#39;t having the same dramatic upside as the initial M-series processor release.  </p><p>Apple CFO Luca Maestri also said to expect Mac revenue to fall by a year-over-year double-digit percentage again in the first few months of 2023, for similar reasons to last quarter. No surprises, then, at IDC&#39;s ugly-looking estimates.</p><p>It&#39;s also worth remembering that the iPhone matters most. iPhone sales made up 56% of Apple revenue at the end of 2022. And regardless of what devices are selling (iPhones, Macs, iPads, Watch, etc.), Apple keeps expanding its total &#34;installed base&#34; of devices in operation, which is the fuel that keeps its stable-growth &#34;services&#34; segment headed higher. Apple said it had reached over 2 billion devices in its installed base during the final months of 2022, double the figure seven years ago.</p><p>Apple stock has rallied 23% so far in 2023, and is just 12% off all-time highs reached a little over a year ago. If you&#39;re an Apple shareholder, there&#39;s no reason to panic-sell the stock now.</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>Apple PC Shipments Plummet In 2023 -- Time to Sell the Stock?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple PC Shipments Plummet In 2023 -- Time to Sell the Stock?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-16 10:09 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/15/apple-pc-shipments-plummet-2023-time-sell-stock/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The tech industry has been working through a glut of PC (personal computer) and smartphone inventories since the second half of 2022.

Rather than needing to shell out the full $2,000 for one share, traders can buy in at a smaller price point.Should Amazon investors feel the move is prudent, the stock split will occur on June 3 of this year.Stock splits have been increasingly popular among large-cap tech companies. Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) also recently announced a split this past February.Given the company’s decline in share price recently, the chance to make Amazon stock a bit more appealing to traders seems like a strong opportunity for the company.AMZN Stock Falls Near 2-Year Low as Market DeclinesAmazon stock has seen better days in the market. Shares have plummeted in value since the company disclosed an apparent e-commerce slowdown in its recent earnings call on April 28.Indeed in its fiscal first quarter, the company saw its operating cash flow drop more than 40%, alongside decreased operating income. Amazon also reported a net loss of $3.8 billion in the March quarter, its first quarterly loss since 2015. Like most companies falling at the moment, Amazon cited inflation, the pandemic, and war in Ukraine as the primary culprits behind the online retailer’s slowed growth.Amazon investors will surely be waiting for May 25 to voice their thoughts on the proposed stock split.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":40,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9023495639,"gmtCreate":1652942773521,"gmtModify":1676535193589,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Good sharing&nbsp;","text":"Good sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9023495639","repostId":"2236797581","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2236797581","pubTimestamp":1652932286,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2236797581?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-19 11:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla: Timing Is Everything","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2236797581","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryYou hear a lot about timing when it comes to the stock market.“You can’t time the market” is ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>You hear a lot about timing when it comes to the stock market.</li><li>“You can’t time the market” is one of the most often used maxims I’m sure many of you have heard, and even more adhere to.

Analyst Brian Nowak lowered his price target on AMZN to $140 but maintained an“overweight” rating on shares.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9998695047,"gmtCreate":1660973907691,"gmtModify":1676536434206,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good sharing","listText":"Good sharing","text":"Good sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9998695047","repostId":"2260323630","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2260323630","pubTimestamp":1660952700,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2260323630?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-20 07:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Stocks to Buy During a Sell-Off","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2260323630","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Oracle, General Mills, and LVMH are all good defensive plays.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has rallied about 10% over the past month as declining gas prices and signs of supply chain improvements have suggested that brighter days are ahead.

Oracle</h2><p>Oracle, the world&#39;s top database management software company, had once been considered an also-ran of the tech sector. Its sales of on-premise software had been cooling off across the saturated market, and cloud-based challengers like <b>Amazon</b> and <b>Microsoft </b>were threatening to disrupt its aging business.</p><p>But instead of sitting still and becoming obsolete, Oracle transformed its on-premise software into cloud-based services. It also expanded that sticky ecosystem with enterprise resource planning (ERP) tools through several big acquisitions. Those efforts were costly, but they enabled Oracle to consistently grow its revenues again and avoid becoming the next <b>IBM</b>.</p><p>Oracle&#39;s revenue growth stalled out in fiscal 2019 and 2020 (which ended in May of the calendar year) as it implemented those turnaround strategies. But its revenue subsequently rose 4% in fiscal 2021 and 5% in fiscal 2022. It expects its cloud revenues to grow 30% organically in fiscal 2023, accelerating from its 22% growth in fiscal 2022, while analysts expect its total revenue (including its recent acquisition of Cerner) to rise 17%.</p><p>Oracle&#39;s earnings per share have also risen consistently, partly driven by buybacks, and analysts expect its earnings (including Cerner) to grow 67% this year. That&#39;s an impressive growth rate for a stock that trades at less than 20 times forward earnings. It&#39;s also reduced its share count by 45% over the past 10 years and pays a decent forward dividend yield of 1.6%.</p><h2>2. General Mills</h2><p>General Mills sells over 100 brands of packaged food products, including Cheerios, Yoplait, Häagen-Dazs, Betty Crocker, Green Giant, and Pillsbury. It also sells premium pet products through its Blue Buffalo subsidiary.</p><p>General Mills is a great stock to own during a downturn for three reasons. First, its business is resistant to inflation, recessions, and other macroeconomic headwinds because people (and their pets) need to eat. For fiscal 2023 (which started this May), General Mills expects its organic sales to increase 4% to 5% and for its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) to grow 0% to 3% in constant currency terms. That stable outlook suggests it can comfortably pass on some of its inflationary costs to consumers with price hikes while protecting its bottom-line growth with tighter cost-cutting measures.</p><p>Second, it&#39;s firmly profitable and pays out nearly half its earnings to fund its forward dividend yield of 2.8%. The company and its predecessor have also paid out uninterrupted dividends for more than a century. Lastly, General Mills&#39; stock is still cheap at 19 times forward earnings. That low valuation arguably makes it more attractive than comparable packaged foods stalwarts like <b>Coca-Cola</b> and <b>PepsiCo</b>, which currently trade at 26 and 27 times forward earnings, respectively.</p><h2>3. LVMH</h2><p>Lastly, high-end luxury stocks are good defensive plays during market downturns because affluent customers are more resistant to macro headwinds. My favorite play in that sector is LVMH, the world&#39;s largest luxury company. The French conglomerate owns 75 houses across five markets -- wines and spirits, fashion and leather goods, perfumes and cosmetics, watches and jewelry, and selective retailing -- and its top brands include Louis Vuitton, Dior, Fendi, Loewe, Bvlgari, Tiffany &amp; Co., Hennessy, and Sephora.</p><p>LVMH experienced a slowdown during the pandemic as it temporarily closed many of its stores. But in 2021, its revenue surged 44% as its net profit soared 156%. Relative to 2019 (which skips the pandemic-related disruptions), its revenue and profit rose 20% and 68%, respectively.</p><p>LVMH faces some near-term challenges -- including supply chain disruptions, the Russo-Ukrainian war, and intermittent COVID lockdowns in China -- but inflation shouldn&#39;t pose much of a threat because it can easily pass on its higher costs to its well-heeled consumers.</p><p>That&#39;s why analysts expect LVMH&#39;s revenue and net profit to rise 18% and 17%, respectively, this year. Its stock is reasonably valued at 25 times next year&#39;s earnings -- especially considering that its rival <b>Hermès</b> trades at 50 times forward earnings -- and it pays a decent forward yield of 1.7%.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Top Stocks to Buy During a Sell-Off</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Stocks to Buy During a Sell-Off\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-20 07:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/19/3-top-stocks-to-buy-during-a-sell-off/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The S&P 500 has rallied about 10% over the past month as declining gas prices and signs of supply chain improvements have suggested that brighter days are ahead.

Recent data from the supply chain show solid iPhone production,” Suva told clients in a note.Beyond this quarter, the analyst remains bullish and offers five reasons why investors should buy Apple stock.iPhone 14 build is still on track for Sept 14 launch, foldable phone coming in 2023;Mix shift continues to skew away from lower priced Android phones towards more mid end and premium pricing products;A ~$90 billion (~4% of current market cap) stock buyback;Sticky services revenues;New product category launches.On the valuation front, the analyst sees the ~1.4-1.5x relative PE as “reasonable given competitive moat, strong FCF generation and balance sheet strength.”Still, Suva cut the price target on Apple stock to $175 from $200 to reflect lower estimates, which are a result of slowing consumer spending “coupled with continued supply chain bottlenecks that are likely to weigh on near-term fundamentals.“Apple stock price closed at $145.86 yesterday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020893743,"gmtCreate":1652597173482,"gmtModify":1676535127244,"author":{"id":"4107327092916560","authorId":"4107327092916560","name":"liverpool777","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/ccd27a97994c1a784b2b11e33f646a2a","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4107327092916560","authorIdStr":"4107327092916560"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good sharing","listText":"Good sharing","text":"Good sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020893743","repostId":"2235748594","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2235748594","pubTimestamp":1652578501,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2235748594?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-15 09:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Should You Buy the S&P 500's 4 Worst-Performing 2022 Stocks?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2235748594","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The sellers seem to have overshot their targets with certain stocks, pricing in a scenario that's unlikely to happen.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>If you&#39;re a bargain-shopping kind of investor, there are certainly plenty of stocks on sale here.
