While 2022 started off on a high, increases in inflation have severely stunted consumer spending, leading to a stock market sell-off.Although Apple shares have dipped 20% year to date, the iPhone manufacturer has fared better than most tech companies this year. For instance, Netflix and AMD shares are down more than 50% year to date. Despite a slowdown in spending in multiple industries, Apple has retained strong demand and sales of its products.Here's why Apple is a stellar buy during a stock dip.Beating the oddsApple posted its 2022 fourth-quarter earnings on Oct. 27, reporting a year-over-year revenue rise of 8.1% to $90.15 billion, which beat analysts' expectations by $1.38 billion. Operating income came in at $24.89 billion, rising 4.6%.The company's growth stemmed primarily from high demand for its iPhone 14 lineup, launched in September, and products within its Mac segment.According to IDC, worldwide smartphone shipments declined by 9.7% in the last year, while PC shipments similarly fell 15%. However, Apple reported 9.6% revenue growth in its iPhone segment, hitting $42.6 billion, and a 25.3% rise in revenue for its Mac segment to $11.5 billion.In addition to defying market declines, Apple has retained a promising amount of free cash flow compared to the competition. Free cash flow has become a crucial metric this year, as the higher the figure, the better equipped a company will be to overcome a potential recession in 2023.Apple's free cash flow is considerably higher than its peers', as seen in the table below.Data by YChartsWith $111.4 billion in free cash flow, Apple appears to have what it needs to get through further economic declines and continue investing in its business.iPhone production strainsAt the moment, prospective investors might be most concerned over Apple's reliance on China for its iPhone production. The country has suffered a spike in COVID-19 cases, resulting in new regulations. Factories can remain open, but workers must live on-site. There has been considerable pushback from workers, slowing production at Foxconn -- the plant responsible for 70% of iPhone shipments.iPhone sales made up 52% of Apple's revenue in its fiscal 2022, fueling investor concern over potential production delays. However, it's important to keep a long-term perspective when adding to your portfolio.In addition to Foxconn coordinating backup production with other plants, Apple is making moves to diversify its production. The company is now making some iPhone 14s in India, with JP Morgan Chase estimating about 25% of all Apple's products will be produced there by 2025.Additionally, Apple has developments in the works that could grow the percentage of revenue it receives from other segments. For instance, Services, which includes platforms such as Apple TV+, Music, iCloud, and more, is a quickly growing segment for the company.Services revenue rose by 14% to $78 billion in Apple's fiscal 2022, bringing in the second-largest portion of revenue after the iPhone. As the company's services business continues to grow, it may take pressure off of Apple's iPhone segment, giving the company time to find a more reliable source of production.Moreover, numerous reports state Apple is hard at work creating an augmented/virtual reality device that could enter the market as early as 2023. The $25.33 billion augmented reality market is expected to see a compound annual growth rate of 40.9% until at least 2030, according to Grand View Research. WithApple has a history of entering new markets and quickly dominating, as it did with tablets, Bluetooth headphones, and smartwatches. So, I wouldn't bet against it doing the same with augmented or virtual reality and diversifying its revenue further.Apple may face short-term headwinds in a potential recession in 2023 and reduced production in China. However, Apple should be an excellent long-term investment with a price-to-earnings ratio of 23.5 and a stock that has risen 237% in the last five years despite recent market declines.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3319,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9986827912,"gmtCreate":1666926284736,"gmtModify":1676537832823,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9986827912","repostId":"2278129890","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2278129890","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1666902627,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2278129890?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-28 04:30","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Apple Q4 EPS $1.29 Beats $1.26 Estimate","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2278129890","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Apple Q4 EPS $1.29 Beats $1.26 Estimate","content":"<html><body><p>Apple Q4 EPS $1.29 Beats $1.26 Estimate</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Nonetheless, the average price for new smartphones is expected to finish this year about 6% higher than last year, with the premium segment (where we find Apple) that is proving to be resilient to the economic turmoil with a 4% growth in market share to 16% of the total smartphone market.</p><p>The picture is somewhat mixed. On one side we have a weakening economy, on the other, we see Apple among the resilient businesses. But, by keeping iPhones prices the same, Apple will risk the undermining of its profits, given the fact that inflation drives up production costs. Some believe that Apple will take this hit, given its net income of $79 billion in the first three quarters of the year. However, I would like to show that we shouldn&#39;t be too rash in stating that Apple will just give up a small percentage, yet big in absolute terms, of its profits without doing anything to prevent it.</p><p>Apple sold an estimated 106 million iPhones through the first half of this year, an 8% increase and still expects to reach 220 million iPhones for 2022. Furthermore, the annual revenue estimates see Apple reaching an $88.47 billion 4th quarter, which, in confirmed, is a 6% growth YoY.</p><p>The analyst Dan Ives has also pointed out that Apple&#39;s initial order for 90 million iPhone 14 units has &#34;stayed firm&#34;. In fact, almost 25% of the 1 billion iPhone users across the world have not upgraded in 3.5 years and demand in China for the high-end devices continues to remain strong.</p><p>So, if sales are expected to grow 6% while inflation is around 8% it seems reasonable to expect Apple to suffer a bit. We could also account the strong dollar that is hurting Apple&#39;s revenue outside the U.S. All of this leads us to the question about Apple&#39;s next fiscal year.</p><h2>The business model: from a transactional to a subscription company</h2><p>If Apple were to rely only on its devices sales, then there wouldn&#39;t be a way around it: keeping prices the same means shrinking margins. However, is Apple only a transactional company?</p><p>Before we dive into some math, we have to consider that Apple is changing its business model, leveraging the fact that it is able to place its hardware devices in every corner. Instead of profiting only from selling hardware, Apple is gradually shifting its focus on maximizing the way to monetize the huge base of installed devices it has all over the world. In other words, Apple is considering every device not only as product sales revenue, but also as the key to earn more money from its user during the device lifetime. If we want to make it even clearer, Apple wants to make more money from its devices, especially the iPhones, the iPads and the MacBooks.</p><p>How is Apple achieving this? Through services. Apple offers different subscription services that offer recurrent revenue from every device. This is why Apple has started breaking down its revenue between products and services. By doing this, Apple can show how its real growth driver at the moment is found in the offered services.</p><p>In its annual report, Apple explains what it considers when it reports service sales:</p><blockquote>Services net sales include sales from the Company’s advertising, AppleCare, cloud, digital content, payment and other services. Services net sales also include amortization of the deferred value of services bundled in the sales price of certain products.</blockquote><p>I think it is still to understand the leveraging power Apple has. While many subscription based companies need to prove to their customers the value of their services, Apple has the huge advantage of basing its subscriptions on material goods that millions of customers around the world already have and want to have. I think this is Apple&#39;s real moat: it is materially present almost everywhere with its devices. Now it only needs to extract more money from their daily usage.</p><h2>Seeking recurrent revenue</h2><p>Back in March 2022, Bloomberg reported that Apple is working on a hardware subscription service for the iPhone which would not be equal to the full price split over 24 months, but that would really offer a new way of becoming an iPhone user. However, while this news is promising, we don&#39;t have enough data to make a forecast of the positive impact if will have on Apple.</p><p>Things are different if we look at the current services. Back in 2016, the average Apple user was estimated to pay $1 per day for hardware and services. According to Katy Huberty, an Apple analyst, at present the average user spends $280 each year on Apple hardware and an additional $69 on services. It is also widely believed that there are about 1 billion Apple users who can give Apple recurring sales income as they adopt new service subscriptions.</p><p>According to the analyst Woodring, Apple users will spend in a few years $2 per day on Apple products or services, a figure already achieved by US iPhone owners. This means that Apple will see a daily revenue of $2 billion, which leads to an annual revenue of $730 billion, which is twice the size of the revenue Apple reported in 2021. It can be reasonable to expect that as the hardware subscription service kicks off, the program will boost the adoption of Apple&#39;s first-party services, such as Music, iCloud, etc. This should have a positive impact on services growth but it should also diminish the company’s dependence on App Store sales. In fact, around 30% of Apple’s current services revenue comes from here. The more Apple sells its first-hand services, the larger the chunk of profits it can retain. However, third party apps are indeed a very profitable business, as Apple has very low costs to earn this revenue since it just needs to make its app store available.</p><p>So far, we know that at the end of fiscal year 2021, Apple users had 785 million paid subscriptions across Apple’s first and third-party services. With a reasonable forecast of $76 billion revenue from services in 2022, Apple will reach a 235% growth from the $32.7 billion services revenue reported in 2017, the year when Apple started reporting its net sales with the breakdown between products and services. In the same time span, revenue from products increased 160% from $196.5 billion to the expected $315.9 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. This growth is shown in the graph below where we see the annual sales split up in products and services.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d2547d7f4afd1fb9114caa34a469f3f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>However, the importance of this graph is not only to highlight the growing chunk of the services revenue, but also to show that as services revenue grows, so does the gross margin. Currently, services account for about 20% of the total revenues, but the impact they have on margins is becoming more and more meaningful. In fact, the cost of services is decreasing as a percentage of total costs, moving from 10.43% in 2017 to 9.24% in 2022. In addition, and even more importantly, the gross margin Apple obtains from the services revenue is moving up from 55% in 2017 to around 72.5% at the end of FY22, as shown below. During the same period of time, the gross margin of the products revenue has seen actually a compression or around 2 pps.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f90ad845ba6da80aebe515476acede2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"370\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author, with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>Nonetheless, even if the products gross margin shrunk, the increase in services gross margin, even if it has an impact on only 20% of total revenues, has been so meaningful to drag upwards the total gross margin of Apple that moved up from 38.5% in 2017 to almost 42% at the end of last year, with a forecast for this fiscal year to be still around this level.</p><p>So, why can Apple afford not to raise prices this year? For sure, part of is a marketing expense that wants to make customers perceive the iPhone as somewhat in reach in an inflationary environment where everything costs more. But, the impact on the revenue will not be as great as we may expect because Apple knows that it is monetizing better all its users. Therefore, Apple knows that even though purchase price of the iPhones remains the same, the company is extracting more money from a device compared to what it was able to do just a year ago.</p><p>In fact, if we divide last year&#39;s services revenue by Apple&#39;s users we see that in 2021 every user spent around $68 in annual services (keep in mind that the $2 per day reported above takes into account products and services together). This year Apple should see at least an 11.7% growth to $76 annual services revenue per user. Clearly, the annual services revenue per user is meaningful.</p><p>We can also look at this revenue from another point of view to understand the possible growth for this segment. During the last earnings call,Tim Cook reported that</p><blockquote>We now have more than 860 million paid subscriptions across the services on our platform, which is up more than 160 million during the last 12 months alone.</blockquote><p>If we divide the $76.8 billion services revenue by the 860 million paid subscription we get that the revenue per subscription is $89, which proves once more that Apple knows it has room to turn more users into paying subscribers.</p><p>In any case, this services growth is enough to offset the current inflation rate, which, as many believe, is set to come down during 2023, where services should have at least a 21% weight on total revenues. Thus, even if the products revenue stays flat (and this would be somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the premium segment is growing), we would have a fifth of total revenues bump up another 10-13%, with a very low cost of sales. The impact on the revenue might still be just around 2%, however the impact on the gross margin will be already more tangible, lifting it up above 42% thus leading Apple to new record profits.</p><p>To this strategy, we could also add that Apple is developing its direct to consumer sales through its e-commerce. Some estimates show that around 15% of iPhone shipments, 30% of Mac/iPads, and 20-25% of Wearables (AirPods and Apple Watch) are sold directly through this channel which brings Apple to enjoy more margins while decreasing sales costs.</p><p>We mentioned briefly that Apple could also a FX problem. While I think the company may expect a little weakening of the dollar, given the point it has reached this year, I think that the fact the company didn&#39;t raise prices show how much Apple relies on the shift towards services revenue.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>The first stock I invested in was Apple. At that time I didn&#39;t know how to read financial statements, nor did I have any particular experience of investing other than having heard a few ideas from my father who had been doing it. But I was sure of the brand. Alas, when I saw a 40% gain I sold my single share and I used the dividends received meanwhile to go drink a coffee. Had I kept that share, now I would have much more. However, the more I developed a passion for investing, the more I returned to Apple and started noticing that the company is not idle nor just sits on its earned status. I keep on seeing a company that becomes more profitable and that is actually set to have a moat no other subscription company has ever enjoyed with the combination of hardware devices that produce recurrent revenue. Financials are important and I always look at them, but in Apple&#39;s case (as in many others) it is important to understand the driving force behind these numbers in order to understand how a business can fare in the future. I think Apple is yet to deliver good and improving results as it leverages its moat and this is why I keep on rating it a buy.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Nonetheless, the average price for new smartphones is expected to finish this year about 6% higher than last year, with the premium segment (where we find Apple) that is proving to be resilient to the economic turmoil with a 4% growth in market share to 16% of the total smartphone market.The picture is somewhat mixed. On one side we have a weakening economy, on the other, we see Apple among the resilient businesses. But, by keeping iPhones prices the same, Apple will risk the undermining of its profits, given the fact that inflation drives up production costs. Some believe that Apple will take this hit, given its net income of $79 billion in the first three quarters of the year. However, I would like to show that we shouldn't be too rash in stating that Apple will just give up a small percentage, yet big in absolute terms, of its profits without doing anything to prevent it.Apple sold an estimated 106 million iPhones through the first half of this year, an 8% increase and still expects to reach 220 million iPhones for 2022. Furthermore, the annual revenue estimates see Apple reaching an $88.47 billion 4th quarter, which, in confirmed, is a 6% growth YoY.The analyst Dan Ives has also pointed out that Apple's initial order for 90 million iPhone 14 units has \"stayed firm\". In fact, almost 25% of the 1 billion iPhone users across the world have not upgraded in 3.5 years and demand in China for the high-end devices continues to remain strong.So, if sales are expected to grow 6% while inflation is around 8% it seems reasonable to expect Apple to suffer a bit. We could also account the strong dollar that is hurting Apple's revenue outside the U.S. All of this leads us to the question about Apple's next fiscal year.The business model: from a transactional to a subscription companyIf Apple were to rely only on its devices sales, then there wouldn't be a way around it: keeping prices the same means shrinking margins. However, is Apple only a transactional company?Before we dive into some math, we have to consider that Apple is changing its business model, leveraging the fact that it is able to place its hardware devices in every corner. Instead of profiting only from selling hardware, Apple is gradually shifting its focus on maximizing the way to monetize the huge base of installed devices it has all over the world. In other words, Apple is considering every device not only as product sales revenue, but also as the key to earn more money from its user during the device lifetime. If we want to make it even clearer, Apple wants to make more money from its devices, especially the iPhones, the iPads and the MacBooks.How is Apple achieving this? Through services. Apple offers different subscription services that offer recurrent revenue from every device. This is why Apple has started breaking down its revenue between products and services. By doing this, Apple can show how its real growth driver at the moment is found in the offered services.In its annual report, Apple explains what it considers when it reports service sales:Services net sales include sales from the Company’s advertising, AppleCare, cloud, digital content, payment and other services. Services net sales also include amortization of the deferred value of services bundled in the sales price of certain products.I think it is still to understand the leveraging power Apple has. While many subscription based companies need to prove to their customers the value of their services, Apple has the huge advantage of basing its subscriptions on material goods that millions of customers around the world already have and want to have. I think this is Apple's real moat: it is materially present almost everywhere with its devices. Now it only needs to extract more money from their daily usage.Seeking recurrent revenueBack in March 2022, Bloomberg reported that Apple is working on a hardware subscription service for the iPhone which would not be equal to the full price split over 24 months, but that would really offer a new way of becoming an iPhone user. However, while this news is promising, we don't have enough data to make a forecast of the positive impact if will have on Apple.Things are different if we look at the current services. Back in 2016, the average Apple user was estimated to pay $1 per day for hardware and services. According to Katy Huberty, an Apple analyst, at present the average user spends $280 each year on Apple hardware and an additional $69 on services. It is also widely believed that there are about 1 billion Apple users who can give Apple recurring sales income as they adopt new service subscriptions.According to the analyst Woodring, Apple users will spend in a few years $2 per day on Apple products or services, a figure already achieved by US iPhone owners. This means that Apple will see a daily revenue of $2 billion, which leads to an annual revenue of $730 billion, which is twice the size of the revenue Apple reported in 2021. It can be reasonable to expect that as the hardware subscription service kicks off, the program will boost the adoption of Apple's first-party services, such as Music, iCloud, etc. This should have a positive impact on services growth but it should also diminish the company’s dependence on App Store sales. In fact, around 30% of Apple’s current services revenue comes from here. The more Apple sells its first-hand services, the larger the chunk of profits it can retain. However, third party apps are indeed a very profitable business, as Apple has very low costs to earn this revenue since it just needs to make its app store available.So far, we know that at the end of fiscal year 2021, Apple users had 785 million paid subscriptions across Apple’s first and third-party services. With a reasonable forecast of $76 billion revenue from services in 2022, Apple will reach a 235% growth from the $32.7 billion services revenue reported in 2017, the year when Apple started reporting its net sales with the breakdown between products and services. In the same time span, revenue from products increased 160% from $196.5 billion to the expected $315.9 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. This growth is shown in the graph below where we see the annual sales split up in products and services.Author with data from Apple's Annual ReportsHowever, the importance of this graph is not only to highlight the growing chunk of the services revenue, but also to show that as services revenue grows, so does the gross margin. Currently, services account for about 20% of the total revenues, but the impact they have on margins is becoming more and more meaningful. In fact, the cost of services is decreasing as a percentage of total costs, moving from 10.43% in 2017 to 9.24% in 2022. In addition, and even more importantly, the gross margin Apple obtains from the services revenue is moving up from 55% in 2017 to around 72.5% at the end of FY22, as shown below. During the same period of time, the gross margin of the products revenue has seen actually a compression or around 2 pps.Author, with data from Apple's Annual ReportsNonetheless, even if the products gross margin shrunk, the increase in services gross margin, even if it has an impact on only 20% of total revenues, has been so meaningful to drag upwards the total gross margin of Apple that moved up from 38.5% in 2017 to almost 42% at the end of last year, with a forecast for this fiscal year to be still around this level.So, why can Apple afford not to raise prices this year? For sure, part of is a marketing expense that wants to make customers perceive the iPhone as somewhat in reach in an inflationary environment where everything costs more. But, the impact on the revenue will not be as great as we may expect because Apple knows that it is monetizing better all its users. Therefore, Apple knows that even though purchase price of the iPhones remains the same, the company is extracting more money from a device compared to what it was able to do just a year ago.In fact, if we divide last year's services revenue by Apple's users we see that in 2021 every user spent around $68 in annual services (keep in mind that the $2 per day reported above takes into account products and services together). This year Apple should see at least an 11.7% growth to $76 annual services revenue per user. Clearly, the annual services revenue per user is meaningful.We can also look at this revenue from another point of view to understand the possible growth for this segment. During the last earnings call,Tim Cook reported thatWe now have more than 860 million paid subscriptions across the services on our platform, which is up more than 160 million during the last 12 months alone.If we divide the $76.8 billion services revenue by the 860 million paid subscription we get that the revenue per subscription is $89, which proves once more that Apple knows it has room to turn more users into paying subscribers.In any case, this services growth is enough to offset the current inflation rate, which, as many believe, is set to come down during 2023, where services should have at least a 21% weight on total revenues. Thus, even if the products revenue stays flat (and this would be somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the premium segment is growing), we would have a fifth of total revenues bump up another 10-13%, with a very low cost of sales. The impact on the revenue might still be just around 2%, however the impact on the gross margin will be already more tangible, lifting it up above 42% thus leading Apple to new record profits.To this strategy, we could also add that Apple is developing its direct to consumer sales through its e-commerce. Some estimates show that around 15% of iPhone shipments, 30% of Mac/iPads, and 20-25% of Wearables (AirPods and Apple Watch) are sold directly through this channel which brings Apple to enjoy more margins while decreasing sales costs.We mentioned briefly that Apple could also a FX problem. While I think the company may expect a little weakening of the dollar, given the point it has reached this year, I think that the fact the company didn't raise prices show how much Apple relies on the shift towards services revenue.ConclusionThe first stock I invested in was Apple. At that time I didn't know how to read financial statements, nor did I have any particular experience of investing other than having heard a few ideas from my father who had been doing it. But I was sure of the brand. Alas, when I saw a 40% gain I sold my single share and I used the dividends received meanwhile to go drink a coffee. Had I kept that share, now I would have much more. However, the more I developed a passion for investing, the more I returned to Apple and started noticing that the company is not idle nor just sits on its earned status. I keep on seeing a company that becomes more profitable and that is actually set to have a moat no other subscription company has ever enjoyed with the combination of hardware devices that produce recurrent revenue. Financials are important and I always look at them, but in Apple's case (as in many others) it is important to understand the driving force behind these numbers in order to understand how a business can fare in the future. I think Apple is yet to deliver good and improving results as it leverages its moat and this is why I keep on rating it a buy.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2943,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9938000676,"gmtCreate":1662516374996,"gmtModify":1676537078437,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9938000676","repostId":"1119329366","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1119329366","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1662514081,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1119329366?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-07 09:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alphabet Stock: Is the Dip an Opportunity for Investors?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1119329366","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Story HighlightsGOOGL stock is under pressure due to the pullback in ad spending and tough year-over","content":"<div>\n<p>Story HighlightsGOOGL stock is under pressure due to the pullback in ad spending and tough year-over-year comparisons.

However, its core business showed resilience during the last reported quarter. Meanwhile, its investments in AI and cloud augur well for growth.Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock has lost over one-fourth of its value so far this year. A slowdown in ad spending amid macro challenges and uncertainty and tough year-over-year comparisons have led to a moderation in its growth, dragging the stock price of this internet giant down. However, its recent quarterly performance (Q2FY22) showed resilience, with strength in the search business and momentum in the cloud segment. This has restored analysts’ and investors’ faith in GOOGL stock, highlighting an opportunity for investors interested in buying the dip.According to TipRanks, analysts seem to have a bullish outlook on GOOGL stock. Further,1.2% of the investors tracked by TipRanks increased their exposure to GOOGL stock in the past 30 days, indicating their positive stance on the stock.But before deciding what to do with GOOGL stock, let’s examine its recent performance and understand what’s in the store for it in the upcoming quarter.Bumpy Road AheadGOOGL missed analysts’ earnings expectations in the first two quarters of FY22. In the last reported quarter (Q2), GOOGL delivered earnings of $1.21 per share, compared to $1.36 per share in the same quarter last year. Further, Google’s Q2 earnings per share fell short of Street’s expectations of $1.27 per share.As for Q3, Wall Street expects GOOGL to deliver earnings of $1.28 per share, which reflects a continued decline on a year-over-year basis. Moderation in growth led by tough comparisons, decelerating ad revenues, and headwinds from fee changes could remain a drag for Google. Further, higher costs could put pressure on the company’s Q3 earnings.What Is GOOGL’s Price Target?GOOGL’s average price target of $142.84 implies 32.4% upside potential. Analysts are optimistic about GOOGL’s prospects despite moderation in its growth rate. GOOGL stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating on TipRanks based on 30 Buys and two Holds.Tigress Financial analyst Ivan Feinseth, who is bullish on GOOGL stock, recently raised his price target to $186 from 183. Feinseth said, “Strength in Cloud and Search continues to highlight the resiliency of its core business lines and ongoing investments in AI (Artificial Intelligence) computing continue to drive increased customer value and increasing shareholder value creation.”Further, the analyst sees Google’s $70 billion share repurchase plan, announced in April, as a positive catalyst for its stock.Bottom LineUndeniably, GOOGL is facing challenges due to the pullbacks in spending by some advertisers, adverse currency movement, and tough year-over-year comparisons. However, the company’s fundamentals remain intact with strength in its search and cloud segments.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GOOGL":0.9,"GOOG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3665,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9933474115,"gmtCreate":1662341045637,"gmtModify":1676537039826,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9933474115","repostId":"1165735347","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4793,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9994913823,"gmtCreate":1661557731364,"gmtModify":1676536539210,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9994913823","repostId":"2262908009","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2262908009","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1661523604,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2262908009?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-26 22:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Merck’s Talks to Acquire Seagen Hit Snag Over Price","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2262908009","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Seagen deal would be biggest for Merck in more than a decadeTalks could still resume and and possibl","content":"<div>\n<p>Seagen deal would be biggest for Merck in more than a decadeTalks could still resume and and possibly lead to agreementMerck & Co.’s talks to buy cancer-drug makerSeagen Inc.have stalled for now, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-08-26/merck-s-talks-to-acquire-seagen-are-said-to-hit-snag-over-price\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The talks could still resume and possibly yield an agreement, the people said. Seagen shares fell 7.2% at 10:19 am. in New York.A spokesperson for Seagen, previously known as Seattle Genetics, declined to comment. A representative for Merck didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.Failing to complete a deal would still leave Merck with a formidable presence in oncology. It already has one of the best-selling cancer treatments in the world, its Keytruda immunotherapy drug, but it’s heavily reliant on that one product.Seagen is a leader in developing a different type of medicine called antibody-drug conjugates, or ADCs. These precision medicines deliver cancer-killing drugs so potent they might otherwise be too toxic to use. The new delivery mechanism uses antibodies to deposit a strong concentration of drug directly at a tumor site, which may increase efficacy with fewer side effects.Partnership DealMerck invested in Seagen in 2020 as part of a drug partnership with the biotech firm and has already tested some of Seagen’s drugs in combination with Keytruda.Shares of Seagen had fallen 3.2% in the past year before Friday, giving the company a market value of about $28 billion.Seagen attracted interest recently because suitors see an opportunity after the resignation in May of co-founder and CEO Clay Siegall, who had opposed a sale of the company, people familiar with the matter said.Siegall resigned about a week after the company said it was aware of “an alleged incident of domestic violence that occurred recently” at his home. The executive, who had led the company since 2002, also resigned from the board. Siegalldeniedthe allegations and informed the company he’s going through a divorce.Chief Medical Officer Roger Dansey is serving as interim CEO while Seagen, based in Bothell, Washington, searches for a permanent replacement for Siegall, according to a May statement.Cancer DrugsThe company’s collaboration deal with Merck was worth up to $4.5 billion and included developing an experimental breast cancer treatment. One of the Seagen drugs that may have attracted Merck’s interest is Padcev, a bladder cancer treatment that has shown promising results in combination with Keytruda.Merck’s biggest-ever acquisition was its $47 billion deal for Schering-Plough Corp. completed in 2009, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SGEN":1,"MRK":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3459,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9994913016,"gmtCreate":1661557716937,"gmtModify":1676536539197,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9994913016","repostId":"1175815664","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175815664","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1661557341,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175815664?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-27 07:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"CEO Patrick Gelsinger Just Bought Intel Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175815664","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"CEO Pat Gelsinger purchased 14,800 shares of Intel.The shares were purchased at an average price of ","content":"<div>\n<p>CEO Pat Gelsinger purchased 14,800 shares of Intel.The shares were purchased at an average price of $33.86.Shares of INTC stock are down over 35% year to date.Intel  stock is in focus following a half...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/08/ceo-patrick-gelsinger-just-bought-intel-intc-stock/\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"investorplace","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The purchase came just one day after Intel announced a $30 billion collaboration with Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE:BAM) to expand its chip-making facilities in Arizona.The collaboration will see Brookfield invest up to $15 billion in return for a 49% stake in the expansion project. Intel will own the remaining stake and oversee operating control of its two facilities in Arizona. Profits from the facilities will be evenly split between the two parties.In addition, Intel finance chief David Zinsner disclosed that Intel will pay Brookfield interest between 4.4% and 8.5% for its investment. He added that the collaboration “builds on the momentum from the recent passage of the CHIPS Act in the U.S.”With that in mind, let’s get into the details of Gelsinger’s INTC stock purchase.INTC Stock: CEO Pat Gelsinger Purchases 14,800 SharesOn Aug. 24, Gelsinger purchased14,800 sharesat an average price of $33.86 per share. After the purchase, he directly owns 77,216 shares, while his trust owns 266,530 shares. The CEO’s purchase seems to be a stamp of approval for Intel’s recent investment.In addition, Gelsinger, along with other industry officials, expects annual semiconductor sales to almost double by 2030 to over $1 trillion. Semiconductors are used in a multitude of everyday products, ranging from cell phones to vehicles.The recently approved CHIPS Act also marks a positive catalyst for Intel. The act will provide $52.7 billion of subsidies for U.S. semiconductor research and development.Let’s take a look at other investors betting on Intel’s success.Who Else Is Betting Big on Intel?Trackinginstitutional ownershipis important, as these large investors provide liquidity and price support for stocks. During Q2, an impressive 2,562 funds owned a stake in the chip company, down from 2,774 funds in the prior quarter. Meanwhile, the institutional put/call ratio sits at 0.97. This means that investors own about the same number of call options against the company as put options. So, who are Intel’s top five shareholders?Vanguard: 357.8 million shares.BlackRock: 347.95 million shares.State Street: 176.15 million shares.Capital International Investors: 87.67 million shares.Geode Capital Management: 79.98 million shares.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"INTC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1548,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9991139990,"gmtCreate":1660786596712,"gmtModify":1676536399553,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9991139990","repostId":"2260878828","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2260878828","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1660783058,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2260878828?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-18 08:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Sea Limited Stock Sank 6% Wednesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2260878828","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With profitability still years away, Sea Limited's ceasing of sales guidance will weigh on the stock.","content":"<div>\n<p>What happenedShares of Singapore-based e-commerce, payments, and online gaming company Sea Limited  closed down 6.4% on Wednesday, one day after news of an earnings beat (but a revenue miss) for the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/17/why-sea-limited-stock-sank-6-today/\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Adding insult to injury, Daiwa Securities cut its price target by $30, to $80, and also downgraded Sea Limited stock to \"hold.\"That's the bad news. The good news is that Daiwa's was the only downgrade Sea suffered today, and while BofA and Citi -- and Stifel as well -- did cut their price targets, according to ratings news reporter TheFly, each of these latter three investment banks still maintains a \"buy\" rating on Sea stock. As Bank of America noted, Sea's losses were worse than expected, but its revenues and gross profit margins at least beat expectations. And longer term, in this banker's view, Sea remains \"well placed to dominate\" e-commerce in Southeast Asia.Now whatSpeaking of the long term, at least one of the analysts commenting today -- Citi -- raised concerns over Sea Limited's decision to suspend revenue guidance as it shifts its focus to \"long-term strength and profitability.\" That's not necessarily a bad thing, however; in fact, Sea did beat analyst expectations for earnings in Q2, reporting a loss of $1.03 per share instead of the $1.19 per-share loss that Wall Street had anticipated.Yet a loss is still a loss, even if it wasn't quite as big a loss as expected. And while long-term investors may be encouraged by the company's shifting its focus away from growth for its own sake, and toward growth for the sake of eventually earning profits, profitability still looks a ways away for Sea. According to the consensus of analysts polled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, Sea won't earn its first profit before 2025 at the earliest.Until that happy day arrives, even long-term investors are probably going to have to depend on reports of sales growth to provide good news (and good stock market returns for Sea stock). For these investors, the announcement that Sea is eschewing sales guidance is probably going to come as a disappointment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1378,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9991192865,"gmtCreate":1660786272858,"gmtModify":1676536399428,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9991192865","repostId":"2260082420","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9902735516,"gmtCreate":1659752297838,"gmtModify":1703752227137,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9902735516","repostId":"2257669194","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2257669194","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1659711869,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2257669194?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-05 23:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba Earnings Highlight Attractive Turnaround Story, Though Stock Gives Back Gains","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2257669194","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"The Latest results brought a 'needed surprise' and other positives, say analysts.Alibaba Group Holdi","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The Latest results brought a &#39;needed surprise&#39; and other positives, say analysts.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BABA\">Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.</a>&#39;s shares looked to be giving back their post-earnings gains in Friday trading, but analysts generally had praise for the Chinese e-commerce giant&#39;s latest results.</p><p>The company reported essentially flat revenue growth for its June quarter on Thursday morning, while signaling an improvement in business trends as the period wore on as well as progress in efforts to rein in expenses.

Since taking the reins in 1965, he's created more than $630 billion in value for shareholders (himself included), as well as delivered a return of 3,641,613% for his company's Class A shareholders (BRK.A), as of Dec. 31, 2021.Having invested for longer than most Americans have been alive, the Oracle of Omaha has seen just about everything. He's lived through more than a dozen recessions, as well as 39 double-digit pullbacks in the benchmark S&P 500 since the beginning of 1950. There's not a thing Wall Street or the U.S. economy can throw Buffett's way that'll scare him or his investing team to the sidelines.A perfect case in point is the United States' historically high inflation rate of 9.1%, as of June 2022. Despite the price for goods and services rising at the quickest pace in four decades, Warren Buffett has been aggressively putting his company's capital to work in a number of stocks. What follows are five stocks Buffett has piled into as inflation soars.Chevron & Occidental PetroleumThe first two stocks Warren Buffett has been buying hand over fist as inflation skyrockets are energy giants Chevron and Occidental Petroleum. I'm discussing both companies together because their operating models are extremely similar, and Buffett's reasoning for piling into these companies is as well.During the first quarter, Berkshire Hathaway added slightly more than 120.9 million shares of Chevron, making it the fifth-largest position in Buffett's portfolio, as of July 22. Meanwhile, the share-buying of Occidental Petroleum has been more methodical, with Berkshire Hathaway filing paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seemingly every couple of weeks to note a new purchase. Close to 50 million total shares of Occidental have been bought by Buffett's company since the end of the first quarter.With inflation at a 40-year high, buying mammoth stakes in Chevron and Occidental Petroleum likely signals that Buffett and his investing team expect oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquid prices to remain elevated for an extended period of time. Both Chevron and Occidental generate their juiciest operating margins from their upstream drilling segments. In other words, these stocks are a way to take advantage of sustainably higher energy commodity prices.Chevron and Occidental also happen to be integrated oil stocks. This means that, in addition to their prized upstream assets, they have midstream (e.g., transmission pipelines and/or storage) and downstream assets (refineries and/or chemical plants). If and when the price of energy commodities falls, downstream assets benefit from lower input costs and higher demand. Meanwhile, midstream assets often have fixed-fee or volume-based deals in place, which are generally immune to wild swings in commodity prices.The one thing to note that is different about Chevron and Occidental is their respective balance sheets. Chevron has among the lowest debt-to-equity ratios in the oil industry, whereas Occidental was buried in debt following its acquisition of Anadarko in 2019.Citigroup & Ally FinancialThe third and fourth stocks Warren Buffett has been piling into as inflation ascends to historic highs are bank stocks Citigroup and Ally Financial. Yet again I've chosen to discuss two companies at once because the thesis behind Buffett's purchases should be nearly identical for both stocks.During the first quarter, Berkshire Hathaway gobbled up more than 55.1 million shares of Citigroup, as well as nearly 9 million shares of Ally Financial. The Ally position is reasonably small (it was worth about $300 million as of this past weekend), with the Citigroup stake nearing $2.9 billion.Under normal circumstances, buying bank stocks with fears of a recession looming wouldn't be an advisable strategy. That's because banks typically face a double whammy when a recession strikes. First, they contend with rising loan delinquencies as economic weakness weighs on consumers and businesses. Second, the Federal Reserve would often come to the rescue by lowering interest rates to encourage lending. Lower interest rates reduce the net interest income-earning potential of banks.But this time really is different. With inflation soaring, the nation's central bank has no choice but to aggressively increase its federal funds target rate to get rising prices under control. Even though loan delinquencies could rise and Citigroup and Ally Financial could be inclined to set aside capital for loan losses, both banks should benefit from higher net-interest income as a result of the Fed's hawkish monetary policy shift.Warren Buffett is also a big fan of playing a simple numbers game that favors the patient. You see, bank stocks like Citigroup and Ally Financial are cyclical. When the economy struggles, banks struggle. Conversely, when the U.S. and global economy are firing on all cylinders, banks are typically growing their loans and deposits.The thing is, recessions only last for a couple of quarters, whereas periods of economic expansion can go on for years. Buying shares of Citigroup and Ally Financial is a smart way of taking advantage of this simple numbers game and benefiting from the natural expansion of the U.S. and global economy.Activision BlizzardThe fifth stock Warren Buffett has piled into as inflation skyrockets is gaming company Activision Blizzard. Although Berkshire ended the first quarter with an 8.2% stake in Activision, the Oracle of Omaha noted during his company's annual shareholder meeting in late April that this position had grown to 9.5%. A 9.5% stake would mean Berkshire owns around 74 million shares.The Activision Blizzard stake is nothing short of a head-scratcher -- until you dig a bit deeper. I say this because Buffett isn't known for investing in tech stocks -- especially tech stocks focused on gaming. Personally, I'd be surprised if the Oracle of Omaha could name a single gaming franchise that drives Activision's top line.So, \"Why Activision?\" The simple answer is the arbitrage opportunity. In mid-January, Microsoft announced an all-cash offer to acquire Activision for $95 per share. Microsoft already has a sizable gaming presence; however, it's likely angling to use Activision as its on-ramp to the metaverse.What makes this deal so appealing to Buffett is how far below the all-cash offer price Activision has traded. As of this past weekend, shares of the gaming company were roughly 20% below Microsoft's buyout price. While there's some concern about whether international regulators will allow the deal to close, a completed buyout would result in a 20% gain from current levels. A 20% return in a year or less would put even historically high inflation in its place.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"ATVI":0.9,"OXY":0.9,"C":0.9,"CVX":0.9,"ALLY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1083,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9903195489,"gmtCreate":1658979153941,"gmtModify":1676536239131,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9903195489","repostId":"2254633097","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2254633097","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1658976097,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2254633097?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-28 10:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What's the Difference Between Alphabet's Stock Tickers, GOOG And GOOGL?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2254633097","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Many investors are confused about the difference between the GOOG and GOOGL stock tickers.

There's the Class C stock with the GOOG ticker, and then we have the Class A stock called GOOGL.That's not quite the whole story, actually. There's a third type of Alphabet stock, but the Class B shares are not available to the public.The difference between these classes of Alphabet stock is not immediately obvious. According to Google's own search algorithm, people who are searching for information about GOOGL will also often wonder what the difference is between Class A and Class C, and which one is the better buy.So let's take a quick look at this classy conundrum.What's the difference?Technically speaking, there is just one difference between Alphabet's three stock classes. It's all about voting power.The Class A stock carries one vote per share in every situation that counts up shareholder ballots.Class C shares have no voting powers at all.The Class B stock consists of so-called supervoting shares. Here, each stub comes with 10 votes.This structure was designed to protect the ownership stakes of Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Together, the two executives currently hold 86% of the Class B shares, which translates into a 51.4% share of Alphabet's total voting power.When the company issues new shares through the employee equity incentive program or acquires another company in a stock-swap deal, the new stubs can fall under the Class C type if the influx of new voting stock would change that balance of power. This way, Brin and Page continue to exercise absolute control of Alphabet's voting matters. It would take a shareholder vote to change that policy, and that idea is unlikely to win a majority of the votes unless at least one of Google's founding fathers is voting in favor.So, Class B stock is not traded on the public market and there is no effective difference between Class A and Class C. Yes, Class A comes with voting powers, but as I mentioned, Brin and Page essentially run the show as they see fit.OK, but is one category a better investment than the other?The company then known as Google introduced the vote-less Class C shares on April 3, 2014. This stock split was performed as a special dividend, giving shareholders one brand-new Class C share for each Class A or Class B stub they already owned. The Class C stock carried on under the old GOOG ticker and Class A moved over to the new GOOGL symbol. The company counted its shares two weeks later, preparing its official filings for the first quarter of 2014, and the number of vote-holding Class A and Class B stubs added up to almost exactly the number of vote-less Class C shares.Things have changed a bit over the past eight years. Alphabet has increased the number of A shares by 6.5%, according to this week's second-quarter report. Meanwhile, 20.4% of the Class B shares have been converted into other classes, and the Class C count is down by 8.2%. These figures took the recent 20-for-1 stock split into account, of course. Again, Brin and Page hold a 51.4% majority in this scenario. That's down from 61.3% in early 2014, but it's still a comfortably controlling stake.You might expect the different share classes to deliver substantially different market returns, since the Class A stock has been diluted over time while Class C moved in the opposite direction. However, the company assigns its earnings per share and other financial results in a method that keeps the financial interests of each share equal in each report. So there is no fiscal reason to value one stock above or below the other. The voting powers don't make a real-world difference, either.Therefore, the stocks have posted nearly identical shareholder returns since the split. Here's how the two market-beating charts have shaped up since April 2014:GOOG data by YChartsIs there really no difference at all?You could consider other metrics, of course. Company insiders and financial institutions own more of the vote-empowered Class A stock than they do the non-voting Class C. The voting stock also experiences slightly heavier trading volumes on average. And when short-sellers are betting against Alphabet, their pre-sold stock is more commonly borrowed from the voting side of the fence.None of this matters in any game-changing way. Where one class of Alphabet stock is going, the other one will follow. Personally, I sold my vote-less Class C shares in 2014 and replaced them with more of the voting stock, for the simple reason that I believe in acting as if I own a small part of the actual company.My votes won't change the outcome of any elections or ballots, of course, so even this idea is just an academic exercise. And I'm happy to wield my minuscule voting power, every chance I get. If nothing else, it's a reminder of the business ownership that comes with buying a stock.But that's my choice, and you may feel differently about this small distinction. You should feel free to invest in either GOOG or GOOGL stock, or both if you prefer. There are no trading fees to worry about these days, so any combination goes. If you like to read proxy filings and vote in the annual shareholder meetings, you should pick up some Class A shares of Alphabet under the GOOGL ticker. And if you'd rather keep your inbox free from vote-related emails, you can select the Class C stock with the GOOG ticker instead.It really doesn't matter which way you lean. Whichever stock ticker you like, Alphabet remains a fantastic long-term investment in the digital future of the global economy.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GOOGL":0.9,"GOOG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1106,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9909540349,"gmtCreate":1658892903381,"gmtModify":1676536225566,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9909540349","repostId":"1144063032","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1144063032","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1658904034,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1144063032?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-27 14:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Earnings: Healthy iPhone Demand Could Create a Surprise for Q3","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1144063032","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple announced that it will release its fiscal 2022 third-quarter earnings report after the closing","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Apple announced that it will release its fiscal 2022 third-quarter earnings report after the closing bell on Thursday, July 28.</p><p>A consensus of analysts estimates the company will earn $1.15 per share on $82.63B in revenue.</p><h3>Previous Quarter Review</h3><p>Apple posted fiscal second-quarter net income of $25 billion, or $1.52 a share, up from $23.6 billion, or $1.40 a share, in the year-earlier quarter.

But oil is not going as far down as drivers across the world would like it to go—or as far as politicians up for reelection would like it to go. Barring a dramatic event of demand destruction, oil is going to remain expensive for the observable future.</p><h3>OPEC and its precious spare capacity</h3><p>The oil-producing cartel has repeatedly signaled that it is in no rush to deploy its spare capacity to boost global supply and bring down prices. One reason for this is the prices themselves: Saudi Arabia has been raising its oil prices for Asian buyers for several months in a row now because it can. The other reason is that spare capacity is limited.</p><p>Earlier this week, when it released its latest Monthly Oil Market Report, OPEC warned that global oil demand is set to rise to levels that would test its production capacity. Known as the “call on OPEC crude,” the amount of oil that the cartel needs to produce in order to cover global demand could rise to 32 million barrels daily in 2023, OPEC said.  That would be up from 28.7 million bpd as of this June, which means OPEC would need to boost its production by over 3 million bpd within the next year and a half to cover demand, coming mostly from China and India. And it may not have the spare capacity to do it. Indeed, Reuters earlier this year cited analysts warning that this spare capacity could slip below 1 million bpd by the end of 2022.</p><p>Not everyone agrees with OPEC’s demand forecast, of course. Energy Aspects, for instance, sees oil demand in 2023 at 101.8 million barrels daily, quite far below OPEC’s 103 million barrels daily. But even with demand at 101.8 million bpd, Energy Aspects’ Amrita Sen told the FT, “The market is incredibly tight and we do not think Opec have the capacity to deliver that.”</p><h3>U.S. shale continues cautiously</h3><p>While analysts discuss OPEC’s spare production capacity, in the United States, shale drillers continue their cautious approach to production growth amid continued calls from the White House to do just that. Since these calls have notably included a caveat that the energy transition remains priority number one, the industry has been in no rush to respond.</p><p>According to the latest EIA Weekly Petroleum Status Report, total oil production in the week to July 15 averaged an estimated 11.9 million bpd, which was a decline of 100,000 bpd from the previous week. It was, however, an increase from a year ago, when production averaged 11.4 million bpd. The four-week average until July 15 was 12.025 million bpd.</p><p>This is quite a solid increase on the year but not a solid enough increase against the background of demand. The White House has accused the industry of profiteering from high oil prices in a tight supply environment. The industry has countered that it is suffering various challenges, such as material and equipment shortages, and inflation has not been a stranger to the oil industry, either.</p><p>Frac sand prices, for instance, had soared by 185 percent over the 12 months to March this year to some $40-$45 per ton. Steel prices have risen, too, and so have wages for oilfield workers amid a labor shortage. As a result, many shale drillers have turned to re-fracs to boost production.</p><p>Re-fracs, as the name suggests, refers to secondary fracking of an existing well to suck out the remaining crude at a much lower cost than drilling a new well. This counters accusations of profiteering, but it doesn’t help boost production faster.</p><h3>Investor pressure remains</h3><p>Meanwhile, pressure from investors remains substantial on the public players in the U.S. oil field and not just there. Big Oil is a special target for investor pressure. And it’s not just pressure to keep returning cash after years of burning it while pumping as much as possible until prices crashed. It’s pressure to signal more climate-related responsibility.</p><p>Shale drillers need to make more ambitious climate commitments, investment firm Kimmeridge Energy Investments said this week, as quoted by Bloomberg. In a white paper, the firm argued that the U.S. shale oil industry should seek to bring its net carbon footprint to zero by 2030. It should also provide consistent data in this respect to make it easier for investors to pick the best companies to invest in.</p><p>“We have a carbon problem, not an oil and gas problem,” Ben Dell, co-founder and managing partner of Kimmeridge, told Bloomberg in an interview. “If we can get our oil and gas product to have no carbon footprint on a net basis, and debate how you measure it and the merits, then there’s no reason we shouldn’t use it.”</p><p>Between OPEC’s shrinking production capacity, the U.S. shale labor shortage, and investors’ insistence on emission reporting and net-zero commitments, it’s not hard to see where oil prices are going, even if sanctions against Russia suddenly drop, which is not happening, even if the war in Ukraine ends, as multiple EU officials have said.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1614844034726","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It should also provide consistent data in this respect to make it easier for investors to pick the best companies to invest in.“We have a carbon problem, not an oil and gas problem,” Ben Dell, co-founder and managing partner of Kimmeridge, told Bloomberg in an interview. “If we can get our oil and gas product to have no carbon footprint on a net basis, and debate how you measure it and the merits, then there’s no reason we shouldn’t use it.”Between OPEC’s shrinking production capacity, the U.S. shale labor shortage, and investors’ insistence on emission reporting and net-zero commitments, it’s not hard to see where oil prices are going, even if sanctions against Russia suddenly drop, which is not happening, even if the war in Ukraine ends, as multiple EU officials have said.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BZmain":0.9,"CLmain":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":552,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9933474115,"gmtCreate":1662341045637,"gmtModify":1676537039826,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9933474115","repostId":"1165735347","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4793,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9991139990,"gmtCreate":1660786596712,"gmtModify":1676536399553,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9991139990","repostId":"2260878828","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2260878828","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1660783058,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2260878828?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-18 08:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Sea Limited Stock Sank 6% Wednesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2260878828","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With profitability still years away, Sea Limited's ceasing of sales guidance will weigh on the stock.","content":"<div>\n<p>What happenedShares of Singapore-based e-commerce, payments, and online gaming company Sea Limited  closed down 6.4% on Wednesday, one day after news of an earnings beat (but a revenue miss) for the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/17/why-sea-limited-stock-sank-6-today/\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Adding insult to injury, Daiwa Securities cut its price target by $30, to $80, and also downgraded Sea Limited stock to \"hold.\"That's the bad news. The good news is that Daiwa's was the only downgrade Sea suffered today, and while BofA and Citi -- and Stifel as well -- did cut their price targets, according to ratings news reporter TheFly, each of these latter three investment banks still maintains a \"buy\" rating on Sea stock. As Bank of America noted, Sea's losses were worse than expected, but its revenues and gross profit margins at least beat expectations. And longer term, in this banker's view, Sea remains \"well placed to dominate\" e-commerce in Southeast Asia.Now whatSpeaking of the long term, at least one of the analysts commenting today -- Citi -- raised concerns over Sea Limited's decision to suspend revenue guidance as it shifts its focus to \"long-term strength and profitability.\" That's not necessarily a bad thing, however; in fact, Sea did beat analyst expectations for earnings in Q2, reporting a loss of $1.03 per share instead of the $1.19 per-share loss that Wall Street had anticipated.Yet a loss is still a loss, even if it wasn't quite as big a loss as expected. And while long-term investors may be encouraged by the company's shifting its focus away from growth for its own sake, and toward growth for the sake of eventually earning profits, profitability still looks a ways away for Sea. According to the consensus of analysts polled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, Sea won't earn its first profit before 2025 at the earliest.Until that happy day arrives, even long-term investors are probably going to have to depend on reports of sales growth to provide good news (and good stock market returns for Sea stock). For these investors, the announcement that Sea is eschewing sales guidance is probably going to come as a disappointment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1378,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9074666099,"gmtCreate":1658359481011,"gmtModify":1676536144907,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9074666099","repostId":"2253327769","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":877,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9041858948,"gmtCreate":1656035091784,"gmtModify":1676535755540,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍😊","listText":"Nice.👍😊","text":"Nice.👍😊","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9041858948","repostId":"1109180758","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":696,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9052192072,"gmtCreate":1655133998996,"gmtModify":1676535567854,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9052192072","repostId":"2243965764","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2243965764","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1655131139,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2243965764?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-13 22:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Is Starting to Walk and Talk Like a Bank.

Many have long feared that tech giants like Apple could one day become banks and offer traditional financial services because of their superior customer acquisition and tech capabilities. With Apple continuing to walk and talk more like a bank, could the company ever get a banking charter and become one?The BNPL offeringCustomers who use Apple's wallet app to purchase items will have the option to put no money down and pay off the purchase through multiple installment payments with no extra fees or interest attached. The buy now, pay later payment format has become wildly popular among consumers and also has helped merchants increase sales.To start, this will be a challenge to others in the BNPL space because of how well integrated the offering is. But Apple is also planning to fund the loans from its own balance sheet and make loan underwriting decisions through its own subsidiary, called Apple Financing. Typically, a lot of consumer tech companies will turn to partner banks to help them set up this kind of infrastructure, which is why this announcement has attracted so much interest.Apple is still partnering with Mastercard to help it set up its BNPL offering. Mastercard has a white-label product and still communicates with the vendors to make the process possible. Goldman Sachs is the issuer of Apple's credit card. Apple Financing has also apparently obtained all of the necessary state licenses to issue the BNPL loans.Getting a bank charterWhile it's very uncommon for a large tech company to outright obtain a bank charter, large payments and tech company Block did manage to obtain an industrial bank charter after a very lengthy process. An industrial bank charter is for a state-chartered bank with insurance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), but it is a bit more limited in nature.So, while Apple could try to pursue a bank charter, I doubt it would, given how long the process might take and the pushback it might receive from the banking industry and other regulators due to antitrust concerns. With more than 1.8 billion active iPhones, if Apple did ever pursue a charter and get more involved in traditional banking services, there could be concerns over data privacy.A recent example that comes to mind is Meta Platforms' foray into stablecoins, which are digital assets pegged to a commodity or fiat currency. Meta for years sank time and resources into building a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin called Diem, but kept running into regulatory issues. The company tried partnering with an issuing bank for the token but eventually ended up selling the project. Many surmise that regulatory issues were the primary reason for the sale.Finally, keep in mind that banking is a very heavily regulated industry, with most banks having three regulators. Even Block, with its industrial charter, is still regulated by the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. And then once a company is a bank, it has to raise and hold regulatory capital, which investors are not always so thrilled about.Will it ever happen?I find it unlikely that Apple would ever pursue a bank charter due to pushback from regulators, the lengthy application process, and the need to hold regulatory capital. But perhaps after setting up and running some of its banking infrastructure, Apple will get more interested, especially if it sees serious profit potential. But even without getting a charter, the fact that Apple is bringing its loan underwriting under its roof will give the company more data on its consumers' finances, which could embolden Apple to offer even more financial services in the future.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":667,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9910420254,"gmtCreate":1663667824878,"gmtModify":1676537312048,"author":{"id":"4108818574232180","authorId":"4108818574232180","name":"KY56","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":13,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4108818574232180","authorIdStr":"4108818574232180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice.👍","listText":"Nice.👍","text":"Nice.👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9910420254","repostId":"2268192960","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2268192960","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1663666978,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2268192960?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-20 17:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Reason Why Apple Didn't Increase IPhone Prices","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2268192960","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryApple just unveiled its new iPhone 14, together with other key products.Despite big hoopla ab","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>Summary</h2><ul><li>Apple just unveiled its new iPhone 14, together with other key products.</li><li>Despite big hoopla about price hikes up to $100, Apple surprised everybody by announcing it will keep iPhone 14 prices the same they were when the iPhone 13 was launched.</li><li>In this article we will try to understand why Apple can do this in an inflationary environment without compressing its margins.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87d98e1014a773e74de9ddeb3f9f3a05\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"720\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Drew Angerer</span></p><h2>Introduction</h2><p>Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) announced that is latest line-up of iPhones 14, while having enhanced qualities, will be sold all at the same prices as last year’s models, despite inflationary pressure that was leading many analyststo $100 price hike forecast.</p><p>This paints a picture that poses a danger for Apple: is the world&#39;s largest company going to see its margins shrink and its profitability reduced?</p><p>In this article, I would like to highlight what I think Apple&#39;s strategy may be to deliver yet again improving results that keep its high margins up.</p><h2>The context</h2><p>The research firm International Data Corp expects a worldwide decline in 2022 smartphone shipments of 6.5%. Nonetheless, the average price for new smartphones is expected to finish this year about 6% higher than last year, with the premium segment (where we find Apple) that is proving to be resilient to the economic turmoil with a 4% growth in market share to 16% of the total smartphone market.</p><p>The picture is somewhat mixed. On one side we have a weakening economy, on the other, we see Apple among the resilient businesses. But, by keeping iPhones prices the same, Apple will risk the undermining of its profits, given the fact that inflation drives up production costs. Some believe that Apple will take this hit, given its net income of $79 billion in the first three quarters of the year. However, I would like to show that we shouldn&#39;t be too rash in stating that Apple will just give up a small percentage, yet big in absolute terms, of its profits without doing anything to prevent it.</p><p>Apple sold an estimated 106 million iPhones through the first half of this year, an 8% increase and still expects to reach 220 million iPhones for 2022. Furthermore, the annual revenue estimates see Apple reaching an $88.47 billion 4th quarter, which, in confirmed, is a 6% growth YoY.</p><p>The analyst Dan Ives has also pointed out that Apple&#39;s initial order for 90 million iPhone 14 units has &#34;stayed firm&#34;. In fact, almost 25% of the 1 billion iPhone users across the world have not upgraded in 3.5 years and demand in China for the high-end devices continues to remain strong.</p><p>So, if sales are expected to grow 6% while inflation is around 8% it seems reasonable to expect Apple to suffer a bit. We could also account the strong dollar that is hurting Apple&#39;s revenue outside the U.S. All of this leads us to the question about Apple&#39;s next fiscal year.</p><h2>The business model: from a transactional to a subscription company</h2><p>If Apple were to rely only on its devices sales, then there wouldn&#39;t be a way around it: keeping prices the same means shrinking margins. However, is Apple only a transactional company?</p><p>Before we dive into some math, we have to consider that Apple is changing its business model, leveraging the fact that it is able to place its hardware devices in every corner. Instead of profiting only from selling hardware, Apple is gradually shifting its focus on maximizing the way to monetize the huge base of installed devices it has all over the world. In other words, Apple is considering every device not only as product sales revenue, but also as the key to earn more money from its user during the device lifetime. If we want to make it even clearer, Apple wants to make more money from its devices, especially the iPhones, the iPads and the MacBooks.</p><p>How is Apple achieving this? Through services. Apple offers different subscription services that offer recurrent revenue from every device. This is why Apple has started breaking down its revenue between products and services. By doing this, Apple can show how its real growth driver at the moment is found in the offered services.</p><p>In its annual report, Apple explains what it considers when it reports service sales:</p><blockquote>Services net sales include sales from the Company’s advertising, AppleCare, cloud, digital content, payment and other services. Services net sales also include amortization of the deferred value of services bundled in the sales price of certain products.</blockquote><p>I think it is still to understand the leveraging power Apple has. While many subscription based companies need to prove to their customers the value of their services, Apple has the huge advantage of basing its subscriptions on material goods that millions of customers around the world already have and want to have. I think this is Apple&#39;s real moat: it is materially present almost everywhere with its devices. Now it only needs to extract more money from their daily usage.</p><h2>Seeking recurrent revenue</h2><p>Back in March 2022, Bloomberg reported that Apple is working on a hardware subscription service for the iPhone which would not be equal to the full price split over 24 months, but that would really offer a new way of becoming an iPhone user. However, while this news is promising, we don&#39;t have enough data to make a forecast of the positive impact if will have on Apple.</p><p>Things are different if we look at the current services. Back in 2016, the average Apple user was estimated to pay $1 per day for hardware and services. According to Katy Huberty, an Apple analyst, at present the average user spends $280 each year on Apple hardware and an additional $69 on services. It is also widely believed that there are about 1 billion Apple users who can give Apple recurring sales income as they adopt new service subscriptions.</p><p>According to the analyst Woodring, Apple users will spend in a few years $2 per day on Apple products or services, a figure already achieved by US iPhone owners. This means that Apple will see a daily revenue of $2 billion, which leads to an annual revenue of $730 billion, which is twice the size of the revenue Apple reported in 2021. It can be reasonable to expect that as the hardware subscription service kicks off, the program will boost the adoption of Apple&#39;s first-party services, such as Music, iCloud, etc. This should have a positive impact on services growth but it should also diminish the company’s dependence on App Store sales. In fact, around 30% of Apple’s current services revenue comes from here. The more Apple sells its first-hand services, the larger the chunk of profits it can retain. However, third party apps are indeed a very profitable business, as Apple has very low costs to earn this revenue since it just needs to make its app store available.</p><p>So far, we know that at the end of fiscal year 2021, Apple users had 785 million paid subscriptions across Apple’s first and third-party services. With a reasonable forecast of $76 billion revenue from services in 2022, Apple will reach a 235% growth from the $32.7 billion services revenue reported in 2017, the year when Apple started reporting its net sales with the breakdown between products and services. In the same time span, revenue from products increased 160% from $196.5 billion to the expected $315.9 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. This growth is shown in the graph below where we see the annual sales split up in products and services.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d2547d7f4afd1fb9114caa34a469f3f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>However, the importance of this graph is not only to highlight the growing chunk of the services revenue, but also to show that as services revenue grows, so does the gross margin. Currently, services account for about 20% of the total revenues, but the impact they have on margins is becoming more and more meaningful. In fact, the cost of services is decreasing as a percentage of total costs, moving from 10.43% in 2017 to 9.24% in 2022. In addition, and even more importantly, the gross margin Apple obtains from the services revenue is moving up from 55% in 2017 to around 72.5% at the end of FY22, as shown below. During the same period of time, the gross margin of the products revenue has seen actually a compression or around 2 pps.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f90ad845ba6da80aebe515476acede2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"370\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author, with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>Nonetheless, even if the products gross margin shrunk, the increase in services gross margin, even if it has an impact on only 20% of total revenues, has been so meaningful to drag upwards the total gross margin of Apple that moved up from 38.5% in 2017 to almost 42% at the end of last year, with a forecast for this fiscal year to be still around this level.</p><p>So, why can Apple afford not to raise prices this year? For sure, part of is a marketing expense that wants to make customers perceive the iPhone as somewhat in reach in an inflationary environment where everything costs more. But, the impact on the revenue will not be as great as we may expect because Apple knows that it is monetizing better all its users. Therefore, Apple knows that even though purchase price of the iPhones remains the same, the company is extracting more money from a device compared to what it was able to do just a year ago.</p><p>In fact, if we divide last year&#39;s services revenue by Apple&#39;s users we see that in 2021 every user spent around $68 in annual services (keep in mind that the $2 per day reported above takes into account products and services together). This year Apple should see at least an 11.7% growth to $76 annual services revenue per user. Clearly, the annual services revenue per user is meaningful.</p><p>We can also look at this revenue from another point of view to understand the possible growth for this segment. During the last earnings call,Tim Cook reported that</p><blockquote>We now have more than 860 million paid subscriptions across the services on our platform, which is up more than 160 million during the last 12 months alone.</blockquote><p>If we divide the $76.8 billion services revenue by the 860 million paid subscription we get that the revenue per subscription is $89, which proves once more that Apple knows it has room to turn more users into paying subscribers.</p><p>In any case, this services growth is enough to offset the current inflation rate, which, as many believe, is set to come down during 2023, where services should have at least a 21% weight on total revenues. Thus, even if the products revenue stays flat (and this would be somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the premium segment is growing), we would have a fifth of total revenues bump up another 10-13%, with a very low cost of sales. The impact on the revenue might still be just around 2%, however the impact on the gross margin will be already more tangible, lifting it up above 42% thus leading Apple to new record profits.</p><p>To this strategy, we could also add that Apple is developing its direct to consumer sales through its e-commerce. Some estimates show that around 15% of iPhone shipments, 30% of Mac/iPads, and 20-25% of Wearables (AirPods and Apple Watch) are sold directly through this channel which brings Apple to enjoy more margins while decreasing sales costs.</p><p>We mentioned briefly that Apple could also a FX problem. While I think the company may expect a little weakening of the dollar, given the point it has reached this year, I think that the fact the company didn&#39;t raise prices show how much Apple relies on the shift towards services revenue.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>The first stock I invested in was Apple. At that time I didn&#39;t know how to read financial statements, nor did I have any particular experience of investing other than having heard a few ideas from my father who had been doing it. But I was sure of the brand. Alas, when I saw a 40% gain I sold my single share and I used the dividends received meanwhile to go drink a coffee. Had I kept that share, now I would have much more. However, the more I developed a passion for investing, the more I returned to Apple and started noticing that the company is not idle nor just sits on its earned status. I keep on seeing a company that becomes more profitable and that is actually set to have a moat no other subscription company has ever enjoyed with the combination of hardware devices that produce recurrent revenue. Financials are important and I always look at them, but in Apple&#39;s case (as in many others) it is important to understand the driving force behind these numbers in order to understand how a business can fare in the future. I think Apple is yet to deliver good and improving results as it leverages its moat and this is why I keep on rating it a buy.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Nonetheless, the average price for new smartphones is expected to finish this year about 6% higher than last year, with the premium segment (where we find Apple) that is proving to be resilient to the economic turmoil with a 4% growth in market share to 16% of the total smartphone market.The picture is somewhat mixed. On one side we have a weakening economy, on the other, we see Apple among the resilient businesses. But, by keeping iPhones prices the same, Apple will risk the undermining of its profits, given the fact that inflation drives up production costs. Some believe that Apple will take this hit, given its net income of $79 billion in the first three quarters of the year. However, I would like to show that we shouldn't be too rash in stating that Apple will just give up a small percentage, yet big in absolute terms, of its profits without doing anything to prevent it.Apple sold an estimated 106 million iPhones through the first half of this year, an 8% increase and still expects to reach 220 million iPhones for 2022. Furthermore, the annual revenue estimates see Apple reaching an $88.47 billion 4th quarter, which, in confirmed, is a 6% growth YoY.The analyst Dan Ives has also pointed out that Apple's initial order for 90 million iPhone 14 units has \"stayed firm\". In fact, almost 25% of the 1 billion iPhone users across the world have not upgraded in 3.5 years and demand in China for the high-end devices continues to remain strong.So, if sales are expected to grow 6% while inflation is around 8% it seems reasonable to expect Apple to suffer a bit. We could also account the strong dollar that is hurting Apple's revenue outside the U.S. All of this leads us to the question about Apple's next fiscal year.The business model: from a transactional to a subscription companyIf Apple were to rely only on its devices sales, then there wouldn't be a way around it: keeping prices the same means shrinking margins. However, is Apple only a transactional company?Before we dive into some math, we have to consider that Apple is changing its business model, leveraging the fact that it is able to place its hardware devices in every corner.

However, its core business showed resilience during the last reported quarter. Meanwhile, its investments in AI and cloud augur well for growth.Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock has lost over one-fourth of its value so far this year. A slowdown in ad spending amid macro challenges and uncertainty and tough year-over-year comparisons have led to a moderation in its growth, dragging the stock price of this internet giant down. However, its recent quarterly performance (Q2FY22) showed resilience, with strength in the search business and momentum in the cloud segment. This has restored analysts’ and investors’ faith in GOOGL stock, highlighting an opportunity for investors interested in buying the dip.According to TipRanks, analysts seem to have a bullish outlook on GOOGL stock. Further,1.2% of the investors tracked by TipRanks increased their exposure to GOOGL stock in the past 30 days, indicating their positive stance on the stock.But before deciding what to do with GOOGL stock, let’s examine its recent performance and understand what’s in the store for it in the upcoming quarter.Bumpy Road AheadGOOGL missed analysts’ earnings expectations in the first two quarters of FY22. In the last reported quarter (Q2), GOOGL delivered earnings of $1.21 per share, compared to $1.36 per share in the same quarter last year. Further, Google’s Q2 earnings per share fell short of Street’s expectations of $1.27 per share.As for Q3, Wall Street expects GOOGL to deliver earnings of $1.28 per share, which reflects a continued decline on a year-over-year basis. Moderation in growth led by tough comparisons, decelerating ad revenues, and headwinds from fee changes could remain a drag for Google. Further, higher costs could put pressure on the company’s Q3 earnings.What Is GOOGL’s Price Target?GOOGL’s average price target of $142.84 implies 32.4% upside potential. Analysts are optimistic about GOOGL’s prospects despite moderation in its growth rate. GOOGL stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating on TipRanks based on 30 Buys and two Holds.Tigress Financial analyst Ivan Feinseth, who is bullish on GOOGL stock, recently raised his price target to $186 from 183. Feinseth said, “Strength in Cloud and Search continues to highlight the resiliency of its core business lines and ongoing investments in AI (Artificial Intelligence) computing continue to drive increased customer value and increasing shareholder value creation.”Further, the analyst sees Google’s $70 billion share repurchase plan, announced in April, as a positive catalyst for its stock.Bottom LineUndeniably, GOOGL is facing challenges due to the pullbacks in spending by some advertisers, adverse currency movement, and tough year-over-year comparisons. However, the company’s fundamentals remain intact with strength in its search and cloud segments.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GOOGL":0.9,"GOOG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3665,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
