With technology such a huge part of our everyday life, it only makes sense that several top tech companies boast some of the biggest market caps around.</p><p>A select group of these companies have even received their own acronym -- FAANG stocks. The term originally referred to Facebook (now <b>Meta Platforms</b>), <b>Amazon.com</b>, <b>Apple</b>, <b>Netflix</b>, and Google (now part ofĀ <b>Alphabet</b>).</p><p>Two of these five companies, Alphabet and Amazon, compete against other. Which is the better FAANG stock? Here's how the two giants stack up against each other.</p><h2>The case for Alphabet</h2><p>Any argument for buying Alphabet stock should begin with the company's impressive moat. Deep-pocketed rivals have tried to dethrone Google Search -- and failed. The most widely used mobile operating system isn't Apple's iOS, it's Alphabet's Android. YouTube has 2.6 billion monthly active users, more than twice as many as its nearest rival, TikTok.</p><p>This moat translates to reliable and growing advertising revenue for Alphabet. The company's advertising revenue jumped 22% year over year in the first quarter of 2022 to $54.7 billion. But Alphabet also makes money in other ways outside of advertising.</p><p>Google Cloud has become a huge growth driver for Alphabet. Revenue for the cloud hosting business soared nearly 44% year over year in Q1 to $5.8 billion. YouTube TV ranks as a formidable competitor to cable providers.</p><p>Alphabet has multiple other avenues to generate growth, as well. Its famous "other bets" notably include self-driving car technology leader Waymo, drone-delivery business Wing, and healthcare units Calico and Verily.</p><p>In addition, Alphabet's cash stockpile of nearly $134 billion gives the company a lot of flexibility to reward shareholders.

With technology such a huge part of our everyday life, it only makes sense that several top tech companies boast some of the biggest market caps around.A select group of these companies have even received their own acronym -- FAANG stocks. The term originally referred to Facebook (now Meta Platforms), Amazon.com, Apple, Netflix, and Google (now part ofĀ Alphabet).Two of these five companies, Alphabet and Amazon, compete against other. Which is the better FAANG stock? Here's how the two giants stack up against each other.The case for AlphabetAny argument for buying Alphabet stock should begin with the company's impressive moat. Deep-pocketed rivals have tried to dethrone Google Search -- and failed. The most widely used mobile operating system isn't Apple's iOS, it's Alphabet's Android. YouTube has 2.6 billion monthly active users, more than twice as many as its nearest rival, TikTok.This moat translates to reliable and growing advertising revenue for Alphabet. The company's advertising revenue jumped 22% year over year in the first quarter of 2022 to $54.7 billion. But Alphabet also makes money in other ways outside of advertising.Google Cloud has become a huge growth driver for Alphabet. Revenue for the cloud hosting business soared nearly 44% year over year in Q1 to $5.8 billion. YouTube TV ranks as a formidable competitor to cable providers.Alphabet has multiple other avenues to generate growth, as well. Its famous \"other bets\" notably include self-driving car technology leader Waymo, drone-delivery business Wing, and healthcare units Calico and Verily.In addition, Alphabet's cash stockpile of nearly $134 billion gives the company a lot of flexibility to reward shareholders. The company's board recently authorized a stock buyback program of up to $70 billion.The case for AmazonAmazon's moat isn't too shabby, either. The company remains the clear leader in e-commerce. It just had the biggest Prime Day ever, with more than 300 million items purchased worldwide.The company isn't limited to online shopping, though. Amazon owns 46 Amazon Fresh grocery stores in addition to more than 500 Whole Foods stores. It recently began offering the \"Just Walk Out\" no-checkout technology to other brick-and-mortar retailers.Amazon Web Services (AWS) set the standard in the cloud hosting market. Net sales for AWS jumped 37% year over year in Q2 to $18.4 billion. The unit produced greater operating income ($6.5 billion) in the quarter than Google Cloud generated in revenue.Amazon's own electronic devices, including Fire TV, Echo virtual assistant, and Blink home security camera, ranked among the best-selling items on the recent Prime Day.

With the market punishing stocks indiscriminately, there are deals to be had for those with the patience to wait out elevated volatility. Buying (and holding) during times like 2022 is easier said than done, but the payoff can be substantial once the bear market gives way to the next bull market.</p><p>If you have $50,000 (or another sizable chunk of change to put to work), I think <b>Alphabet</b>, <b>Nvidia</b>, <b>Block</b>, <b>Twilio</b>, and <b>Crocs</b>Ā are compelling stocks to buy right now. Here's why I'm bullish.</p><h2>Alphabet: A boring name with serious market-beating potential</h2><p>I like big old boring Google parent Alphabet. If you're looking for a company to start building a portfolio around, Alphabet is about as good as it gets. It's benefiting from multiple secular growth trends (digital ads, online video content consumption via YouTube, and cloud computing via Google Cloud), so this should be a steady growth story for many years.</p><p>Alphabet is also highly profitable, exactly the type of stock that should rebound quickly from the current bear market. Inflation and interest rates are on the rise, but Google's profit margins provide plenty of cushion. So does $125 billion in net cash and short-term investments, which Alphabet is using to repurchase shares.</p><p>Working from a position of technological and financial strength also gives Alphabet the ability to invest in things like its Waymo subsidiary. Self-driving cars could reshape the global economy, and Waymo is a leader in this bleeding-edge technology. Trading for just 22 times trailing-12-month free cash flow, Alphabet is a value right now -- especially when considering its long-term potential.</p><h2>Nvidia: The top platform for building AI</h2><p>I believe Nvidia will be the next business to join the trillion-dollar club: that exclusive group of stocks (Alphabet included) with a market cap of at least $1 trillion. Currently valued at $445 billion, the semiconductor giant is already almost halfway there.</p><p>Nvidia's GPUs, historically the realm of high-end video game PCs, are finding use in data centers creating and running artificial intelligence software. AI is in the early stages of deployment, just now reaching that convergence of usefulness and affordability that makes it compelling for industries of all sorts. Building on its lead here, Nvidia has launched new chip types outside of GPUs to address other parts of the modern business data center.</p><p>If its impressive hardware weren't enough, Nvidia is also early on in developing a cloud-based software business too. AI software won't only help Nvidia sustain its growth momentum but could also lift profit margins higher as well. This is a premium-priced stock at 57 times trailing 12-month free cash flow, but this is a great company to buy and hold for the next decade if you're looking for a way to bet on the AI industry.</p><h2>Block: A depressed fintech name with international potential</h2><p>Block (formerly Square) was a high-flying financial technology leader just a year ago. Now, it trades for just over seven times enterprise value (just over $35 billion as of this writing) to trailing-12-month gross profit ($4.75 billion). The market is feeling particularly ho-hum on Block.</p><p>The punishment isn't completely unwarranted. Block is trying to develop the <b>Bitcoin </b>blockchain network, and it isn't clear if Bitcoin will ever have a future as a means of enabling transactions on the internet. It also paid a pretty penny for buy-now-pay-later company Afterpay early this year, and it will take time to see if the combined fintechs are worth more together than they would have been on their own.</p><p>Personally, though, I like Block's plan of attack with Afterpay. Block needs a way to connect its Square merchant services ecosystem with the more consumer-facing Cash App. Afterpay could act as the rails between the two and create a truly two-sided network that keeps merchants and individuals highly engaged -- and makes Block more profitable over time. And at 39 times trailing-12-month free cash flow, Block's growth potential looks severely underappreciated right now.</p><h2>Twilio: Communications head for the cloud</h2><p>The pandemic accelerated large organizations' migration to the cloud, which was especially apparent with cloud-based communications tools. <b>Zoom Video Communications </b>got all the early attention, but Twilio has been the more enduring growth story as Zoom's expansion has decelerated.</p><p>Twilio's secret is it has a wide range of tools available for businesses to integrate into their operations -- from text and email to website chatbots to internet-based phone and video calling. Twilio's latest efforts have been to add customer data analytics to its platform, helping businesses understand when and how to stay in touch with customers.</p><p>Twilio thinks it can sustain about a 30% organic growth rate (which excludes acquisitions) for the foreseeable future. The only problem is that Twilio hasn't generated a profit yet. This is partially by design as the company spends heavily to maximize its rate of expansion, but a rising interest rate environment doesn't look favorably on stocks like this.</p><p>Nevertheless, Twilio expects to generate adjusted operating profit by 2023 and currently trades for a meager 3.6 times enterprise value to trailing-12-month revenue. If the business continues to grow at a rapid pace and reaches profitability next year, there is a lot of upside here.</p><h2>Crocs: Get a top-trending brand among young generations for a steal</h2><p>To mix up the tech-heavy stock list above, I also really like Crocs stock right now. Yes, Crocs, the maker of the goofy foam clogs. Whether or not you like them, this is a popular brand among young people. Crocs ranked in the top 10 shoe brands among Generation Z (early 20-somethings), according to <b>Piper Sandler</b>'s "Taking Stock With Teens" Spring 2022 report. And seemingly out of nowhere came Hey Dude, also now a Top 10 shoe brand among teens according to Piper Sandler's report. Hey Dude is the casual shoe brand Crocs just acquired.</p><p>Crocs' comfy kicks are growing fast (sales have more than doubled over the last three years), but the stock has been beaten down some 55% so far in 2022. Inflation is hurting profits in the short term, and Crocs had to take on significant debt to purchase Hey Dude. The company reported nearly $2.9 billion in debt at the end of the first quarter.</p><p>But if Crocs can maintain its shoe industry-best operating profit margin and keep growing, this stock is a deep value. It trades for just 5.97 times current year expected earnings. If you're looking for a bet on a resilient consumer, Crocs could create lots of rewards for the present risks right now. I'm a buyer.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Best Stocks to Invest $50,000 in Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe Best Stocks to Invest $50,000 in Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-22 16:26 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/07/21/the-best-stocks-to-invest-50000-in-right-now/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Bear markets are a great time to buy if you're a long-term investor.

Inflation is hurting profits in the short term, and Crocs had to take on significant debt to purchase Hey Dude. The company reported nearly $2.9 billion in debt at the end of the first quarter.But if Crocs can maintain its shoe industry-best operating profit margin and keep growing, this stock is a deep value. It trades for just 5.97 times current year expected earnings. If you're looking for a bet on a resilient consumer, Crocs could create lots of rewards for the present risks right now. I'm a buyer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":238,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9049238135,"gmtCreate":1655797500227,"gmtModify":1676535707240,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9049238135","repostId":"1110343960","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":730,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9049076918,"gmtCreate":1655729782234,"gmtModify":1676535693873,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9049076918","repostId":"2244145198","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2244145198","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1655738413,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2244145198?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-20 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock: Bull vs. Bear","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2244145198","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Are you for or against Apple stock?","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Apple</b>Ā ranks high among the most popular companies in the world.

In November, stocks were the real gravy train, and it looks like they can keep chugging ahead.A shortened holiday week didnāt stop the S&P 500 index from reaching its 53rd record close of the year.It was a shorter week for the market, as Americans celebrated the Thanksgiving holiday, but that didnāt stop the S&P 500 index from reaching its 53rd record close of the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average managed its 47th record close, too.Overall, November was another spectacular month in what was already a great year, with the S&P 500 up 5.7%, putting its year-to-date gain at 26.5%. Remarkably, that was the least impressive of the major indexes, with the Nasdaq Composite up 6.2%, the Dow up 7.5%, and the Russell 2000 up 10.8%.The postelection euphoria has given way to a more pragmatic analysis of how changes in Washington may shake out, but Inauguration Day is still far enough away not to cause too much worry.

The U.S. stock market has officially entered bear-market territory, and many investors might opt for tactical plays in Chinese assets.With the U.S. stock market as tight as it is, itās probably best to look elsewhere. Tactical allocations are always a good option whenever there isnāt much to choose from.Chinese stocks can be a great option at the moment, as theyāre largely oversold and operate in one of the few economies with subdued inflation. Moreover, Chinese stocks provide diversification benefits to U.S.-centric stock portfolios.I utilized TipRanksā stock screener to find three Chinese stocks that Iām bullish on and decided to expand upon their key metrics in this article.BilibiliĀ (BILI)Bilibili is a significantly oversold asset at the moment. The stock has drawn down by more than 40% since the turn of the year, as Chinese stocks have faced significant geopolitical headwinds.Nonetheless, thereās hope for Bilibili, as itās a unique stock. Firstly, the companyās effort to appeal to a new consumer base has been successful. 86% of Bilibiliās user base is Gen-Z and younger millennials. Thus, the firmās consumer longevity is of no doubt.Also, the stock is relatively undervalued, with a price-to-sales discount of 65.7% compared to its five-year average and a price-to-book ratio at a discount ofĀ 65.9%.Turning to Wall Street, Bilibili earns a Moderate Buy consensus rating based on three Buys and six Hold ratings assigned in the past three months. TheĀ average BILI stock price targetĀ of $32.39 implies a 23.3% upside potential.AlibabaĀ (BABA)AlibabaĀ stock is a sleeping giant; thereās no doubting the fact. Additionally, itās a leading Chinese asset, meaning that Alibabaās been under excess beta sensitivity during the recent Chinese bear market.However, the tides seem to have changed. Alibaba stock has found a new investor base as market participants seek an alternative habitat amid a U.S. bear market. For instance, while the S&P 500 (SPX) has dipped by more than 6% during the past month, Alibaba has surged by an excess ofĀ 16%.From a non-statistical viewpoint, Alibaba has a commercial profile that would leave many in awe. The companyās model takes advantage of goods arbitrage between the developed nations and global midstream suppliers, which is yet to be challenged.Furthermore, Alibabaās local presence is phenomenal, as its array of acquisitions has allowed it to build a vertical and horizontal business model that focuses on speed and efficiency.Also, the stock is relatively undervalued. Firstly, Alibabaās price-to-earnings ratio is at a 62.3% discount compared to its five-year average, meaning that the market is yet to price its EPS achievements. Moreover, Alibaba is relatively undervalued on a cash basis, as its price-to-cash-flow ratio is currently 36.6% less than its five-year average.Turning to Wall Street, Alibaba earns a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 17 Buys and two Hold ratings assigned in the past three months. TheĀ average BABA stock price targetĀ of $159.84 implies a 56% upside potential.JD.com (JD)At an inflation rate of little over 2%, China is one of the few nations that isnāt faced with high price levels at the moment. In addition, the nationās capacity utilization is showing signs of improvement due to lighter COVID-19 policies.According to Bank of America (BAC): āThe capacity in Shanghai and its nearby region saw its low in April, rebounded to about 80% in the 1st week of May, came down again in the 3rd week of May, and then went back up to over 80% recently.āOnline retail stores such as JD.com could benefit as the Chinese economy enters a cyclical recovery. The company exhibits a market stronghold with a nearly 15% market share. Moreover, JD.com is running an efficient company with an asset turnover ratio of 2.13% and cash from operations of $7.31 billion.Furthermore, relative valuation metrics indicate that JD stock is undervalued. For example, JD is trading at a discount to its five-year price/sales ratio worth 26% and a normalized price-to-cash-flow ratio discount of 25.6%.Turning to Wall Street, JD earns a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 10 Buys and two Hold ratings assigned in the past three months. TheĀ average JD stock price targetĀ of $82.75 implies a 26.7% upside potential.Concluding ThoughtsChinese stocks are a tactical play at the moment, as many investors are exiting the U.S. market and seeking new pastures. Additionally, with economic circumstances improving in China, many of the areas listed securities could start performing once more.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":730,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9049076918,"gmtCreate":1655729782234,"gmtModify":1676535693873,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9049076918","repostId":"2244145198","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":533,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":376894970925200,"gmtCreate":1733058128814,"gmtModify":1733058134522,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Speechless] ","listText":"[Speechless] ","text":"[Speechless]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/376894970925200","repostId":"2488684888","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2488684888","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1733020200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2488684888?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2024-12-01 10:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Up 500% in the Past Year: Why Investors Are Falling in Love With This Hypergrowth SpaceX Competitor","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2488684888","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Rocket Lab is a fast-growing space company aiming to compete with SpaceX.Rocket Lab investors just keep on winning.

The space flight company is up around 500% in the last 12 months, which is more than double the returns of <strong>Nvidia</strong> in that same time frame. It has been an incredible run for the stock, led by its increasing performance in space launches and satellite manufacturing, helping it compete with the dominant player in the sector: SpaceX.</p><p>Here's why investors are uber-optimistic about SpaceX competitor Rocket Lab, and why the stock is up around 500% in the last year.</p><h2 id=\"id_2764687319\">Accelerating small rocket launches</h2><p>SpaceX has a dominant position in private commercial rocket launches. In fact, just a few years ago, the Elon Musk-led company was virtually the only Western company able to reliably launch rockets into orbit. What happened a few years ago? Rocket Lab began competing for contracts.</p><p>In order to enter the market, Rocket Lab targeted rocket launches with much smaller payloads (i.e., the mass on board) compared to SpaceX's workhorse Falcon 9 rocket. This led it to produce the Electron rocket, which can take small and experimental payloads to orbit. Electron will be the third most launched rocket globally in 2024, which is an impressive feat and shows how much Rocket Lab is making progress to catch up with SpaceX.</p><p>Just a few days ago, Rocket Lab showed its true potential with its rocket launch services, performing two missions (on separate launch pads) in less than 24 hours. Investors have gotten excited about these missions, showing that Rocket Lab has a chance to greatly increase its launch cadence in the coming years. The demand is there, too. Rocket Lab has a growing backlog worth over $1 billion and thousands of satellites waiting from commercial customers to be deployed.</p><p>More launches mean more revenue, and eventually profit generation. Since entering the public markets in 2021, Rocket Lab's revenue has grown 551%, making it one of the fastest-growing businesses in the world. If it can increase its launch frequency, investors are betting that this growth will continue for the next few years as well.</p><h2 id=\"id_3924303152\">Vertical integration ambitions</h2><p>Rocket Lab has larger ambitions than just the Electron rocket. Through internal investments and acquisitions, the company has built up capabilities to build the payloads (satellites, solar cells, and space pods) for its commercial customers. Space systems revenue has grown at a rapid rate in the last few years and now makes up the majority of Rocket Lab's overall revenue.</p><p>The key is the flywheel that gets built with all these capabilities. Rocket Lab is one of the few places a customer can go to get a reliable launch into orbit, making it much easier for the company to upsell these customers on its space systems capabilities. The government thinks it is a promising business as well, with Rocket Lab recently signing a $24 million incentive agreement as part of the new CHIPS Act to build semiconductors for space systems.</p><p>Over the long term, investors should watch two developments for Rocket Lab to further its vertical integration ambitions. First is the larger Neutron Rocket, which will increase its payload per launch and help directly compete with SpaceX. The company already has a customer signed on for a Neutron launch, which is expected to debut in 2025.</p><p>Second, the company is planning to build its own satellite constellation and sell software/services from orbit, which could help boost the company's profit potential.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/cd26f42add6841c30fe7260906708a02\" alt=\"RKLB PS Ratio data by YCharts\" title=\"RKLB PS Ratio data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"441\"/><span>RKLB PS Ratio data by YCharts</span></p><h2 id=\"id_1364768824\">Should you buy the stock?</h2><p>There is a lot to like about Rocket Lab's business, and I applaud the shareholders who bought the stock over a year ago. You are sitting on some fantastic gains at the moment. That doesn't make the stock a buy today, though.</p><p>At a market cap pushing through $12 billion, Rocket Lab trades at a price-to-sales ratio (P/S) of 34, more than 10x the market average.

The space flight company is up around 500% in the last 12 months, which is more than double the returns of Nvidia in that same time frame. It has been an incredible run for the stock, led by its increasing performance in space launches and satellite manufacturing, helping it compete with the dominant player in the sector: SpaceX.Here's why investors are uber-optimistic about SpaceX competitor Rocket Lab, and why the stock is up around 500% in the last year.Accelerating small rocket launchesSpaceX has a dominant position in private commercial rocket launches. In fact, just a few years ago, the Elon Musk-led company was virtually the only Western company able to reliably launch rockets into orbit. What happened a few years ago? Rocket Lab began competing for contracts.In order to enter the market, Rocket Lab targeted rocket launches with much smaller payloads (i.e., the mass on board) compared to SpaceX's workhorse Falcon 9 rocket. This led it to produce the Electron rocket, which can take small and experimental payloads to orbit. Electron will be the third most launched rocket globally in 2024, which is an impressive feat and shows how much Rocket Lab is making progress to catch up with SpaceX.Just a few days ago, Rocket Lab showed its true potential with its rocket launch services, performing two missions (on separate launch pads) in less than 24 hours. Investors have gotten excited about these missions, showing that Rocket Lab has a chance to greatly increase its launch cadence in the coming years. The demand is there, too. Rocket Lab has a growing backlog worth over $1 billion and thousands of satellites waiting from commercial customers to be deployed.More launches mean more revenue, and eventually profit generation. Since entering the public markets in 2021, Rocket Lab's revenue has grown 551%, making it one of the fastest-growing businesses in the world. If it can increase its launch frequency, investors are betting that this growth will continue for the next few years as well.Vertical integration ambitionsRocket Lab has larger ambitions than just the Electron rocket. Through internal investments and acquisitions, the company has built up capabilities to build the payloads (satellites, solar cells, and space pods) for its commercial customers. Space systems revenue has grown at a rapid rate in the last few years and now makes up the majority of Rocket Lab's overall revenue.The key is the flywheel that gets built with all these capabilities. Rocket Lab is one of the few places a customer can go to get a reliable launch into orbit, making it much easier for the company to upsell these customers on its space systems capabilities. The government thinks it is a promising business as well, with Rocket Lab recently signing a $24 million incentive agreement as part of the new CHIPS Act to build semiconductors for space systems.Over the long term, investors should watch two developments for Rocket Lab to further its vertical integration ambitions. First is the larger Neutron Rocket, which will increase its payload per launch and help directly compete with SpaceX. The company already has a customer signed on for a Neutron launch, which is expected to debut in 2025.Second, the company is planning to build its own satellite constellation and sell software/services from orbit, which could help boost the company's profit potential.RKLB PS Ratio data by YChartsShould you buy the stock?There is a lot to like about Rocket Lab's business, and I applaud the shareholders who bought the stock over a year ago. You are sitting on some fantastic gains at the moment. That doesn't make the stock a buy today, though.At a market cap pushing through $12 billion, Rocket Lab trades at a price-to-sales ratio (P/S) of 34, more than 10x the market average. Yes, Rocket Lab has a lot of growth potential, but this is a capital-intensive low-margin business that does not deserve to trade at over 30x sales.To illustrate this point, let's perform some forward-looking estimates for Rocket Lab. In 10 years, if the company achieves all of its ambitions with minimal hiccups (an optimistic scenario), I could see the company's revenue growing from its current annual figure of $364 million to $5 billion. With a 26% gross profit margin, it is reasonable to assume Rocket Lab can hit 10% net income margins once it scales, or $500 million in earnings on $5 billion in revenue.Consider that $500 million in earnings versus the current market cap of $12.34 billion is a price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 25. That is not much lower than the average S&P 500Ā P/E ratio today, and that would be Rocket Lab's earnings power in 10 years under the most optimistic assumptions.Stay away from Rocket Lab stock right now. The stock price is getting out of control.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":72,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9077811719,"gmtCreate":1658488918531,"gmtModify":1676536166711,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9077811719","repostId":"2253498728","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":238,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9077669201,"gmtCreate":1658507393903,"gmtModify":1676536169558,"author":{"id":"4110883790761012","authorId":"4110883790761012","name":"hongyelim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0101a01e41ba969448211f959505ce52","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110883790761012","authorIdStr":"4110883790761012"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Facepalm]
