The company missed Q3 earnings estimates badly and lowered fourth quarter guidance. Declining ad revenue and higher costs put pressure on Meta&#39;s sales, margins, profits, and share price. The company&#39;s stock crashed by approximately 25% Thursday, as traders dumped shares first and didn&#39;t ask many questions.</p><p><b>META 1-Year Chart</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a59f88c64844e100c0741341e16b539\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"676\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>META (StockCharts.com )</p><p>Remarkably, Meta&#39;s stock price is down by a staggering 75% since the epic tech top blew off last November. Meta was in the elite club of the trillion-dollar tech juggernauts around its peak. Unfortunately for many shareholders, Meta&#39;s market cap has dwindled to just about $266 billion. However, Meta&#39;s revenue and earnings decline phase is transitory. The company remains a dominant market leader in the online ad space and should return to revenue and EPS growth in the coming years.</p><p>Meanwhile, the stock is absurdly cheap at roughly two times sales and a P/E ratio of around 10. The near-term downside is likely limited for Meta&#39;s stock now. However, as Meta returns to revenue growth and improves profitability, its stock price should increase considerably, making it one of the best stocks to own for the next decade.</p><h2>Earnings - A Transitory Problem</h2><p>While Meta beat Q3 revenue estimates by approximately $300 million, the $27.7 billion sales figure was 4.5% below last year. However, it was Q3&#39;s EPS that spooked investors even more. Meta delivered $1.64 in EPS, badly missing the consensus mark by 22 cents. Moreover, in Q3 2021, the company had a whopping $3.22 in EPS. So, we&#39;re looking at a 49% YoY EPS decline. Pretty shocking, right?</p><p>Nevertheless, there was more bad news. Meta&#39;s average price per ad decreased by 18% YoY. I began warning of the spread of ad revenue declines in May in my &#34;Snap&#39;s Warning For Everyone&#34; article (Meta&#39;s stock was around $220 then). Meta&#39;s ad sales have been softening for months, and we see its ad revenues and profits continuing to slide. Meta expects fourth-quarter total revenues to be $30-32.5 billion vs. $32.21 consensus estimates. Q4 2021 revenue came in at <i>$33.67 billion</i>. Presuming that Meta can hit the mid-range of its estimate ($31.25 billion), we&#39;d see about a 7% YoY revenue decline. Naturally, this is not pretty, but the good news is that Meta&#39;s revenue and earnings decline phase is probably transitory and will likely pass soon. Once the downturn concludes, Meta should return to growing sales and increasing profits again.</p><h2>Revenue Growth and EPS Expansion Should Return</h2><p>Meta, or Facebook as I still like to call it, is a dominant, market-leading company with exceptional revenue growth and profitability potential.

Also, both numbers increased on a YoY basis. MAUs grew by 2%, and DAUs increased by 3% YoY. These are massive numbers representing much of the global population using the Internet.

Also, remember that Meta owns WhatsApp, which has about 2 billion users, and Messenger, with more than one billion. In addition, Meta owns numerous secondary businesses with significant growth and profit potential to make up for declining social media growth in future years.</p><h2>Let&#39;s Look At Some Numbers</h2><p>The company&#39;s estimates got slashed severely due to Facebook&#39;s transitory revenue and earnings decline phase.</p><p><b>EPS Revisions </b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/772659d738708b1100a8d61fbc5088ca\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>EPS revisions (SeekingAlpha.com )</p><p>The revisions have been brutal and an ongoing phenomenon for quarters.

The market doesn&#39;t believe in Meta&#39;s ability to return to sufficient revenue growth and questions the company&#39;s earning potential. However, the market is likely looking very short term here.

Meta is one of the few critical technology companies like to dominate over the next decade. Therefore, despite the absurdly negative sentiment and the rock-bottom EPS and growth estimates, Meta is one of the top stocks to own over the next 10 years. Also, there&#39;s a high probability that Meta may surpass consensus EPS and revenue estimates as the company advances.</p><p><b>Revenue Estimates </b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7226214110060a01bb902e26e24ccd79\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"266\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Revenue estimates (SeekingAlpha.com )</p><p>Meta&#39;s consensus revenue estimate has dropped to about $116.5 billion this year. This result would equate to a YoY revenue decline of roughly 1.2%. However, my estimate is $118 billion, roughly flat relative to 2021 revenues. Next year&#39;s revenue estimates range from $116 - 147 billion, a vast range. Nevertheless, next year&#39;s consensus estimate is about $124 billion (lowballed, in my view). This revenue increase would represent YoY growth of about 7%. I estimate a 10% YoY revenue increase to roughly $130 billion in 2023. After that, we could see Meta provide high single to low double-digit revenue growth through 2030.</p><p><b>Here&#39;s What Meta&#39;s Financials Could Look Like As We Advance: </b></p><table><tbody><tr><td><b>Year</b></td><td><b>2022</b></td><td><b>2023</b></td><td><b>2024</b></td><td><b>2025</b></td><td><b>2026</b></td><td><b>2027</b></td><td><b>2028</b></td><td><b>2029</b></td><td><b>2030</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue Bs</b></td><td>$118</td><td>$130</td><td>$145</td><td>$165</td><td>$184</td><td>$205</td><td>$225</td><td>$245</td><td>$265</td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue growth</b></td><td>0%</td><td>10%</td><td>12%</td><td>13%</td><td>12%</td><td>11%</td><td>10%</td><td>9%</td><td>8%</td></tr><tr><td><b>EPS</b></td><td>$9.50</td><td>$12</td><td>$15</td><td>$19</td><td>$22</td><td>$26</td><td>$31</td><td>$37</td><td>$45</td></tr><tr><td><b>Forward P/E</b></td><td>8</td><td>12</td><td>14</td><td>16</td><td>17</td><td>16</td><td>15</td><td>13</td><td>12</td></tr><tr><td><b>Stock price</b></td><td>$100</td><td>$180</td><td>$266</td><td>$330</td><td>$442</td><td>$496</td><td>$555</td><td>$585</td><td>$600</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Click to enlarge</p><p>Source: The Financial Prophet</p><h2>The Bottom Line</h2><p>Meta is one of the top technology companies in the world and is essentially a social media monopoly. Thus, revenue growth should return and increase in future years. Some people may have differing views, but Meta&#39;s leading position in the Metaverse space could pay off enormously in the coming years. Therefore, the company&#39;s revenues, profits, and share price could increase more significantly than many rock-bottom estimates imply. With modest revenue growth, annual EPS growth of around 15%-25%, and modest P/E multiple expansion, Meta&#39;s stock price should appreciate substantially over the next decade.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Meta: Buy It For The Next Decade</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\">\nMeta: Buy It For The Next Decade\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-31 14:35 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4550969-meta-a-buy-for-next-decade><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Meta (NASDAQ:META) has been in the news lately, and not for good reasons.

Thus, revenue growth should return and increase in future years. Some people may have differing views, but Meta's leading position in the Metaverse space could pay off enormously in the coming years. Therefore, the company's revenues, profits, and share price could increase more significantly than many rock-bottom estimates imply. With modest revenue growth, annual EPS growth of around 15%-25%, and modest P/E multiple expansion, Meta's stock price should appreciate substantially over the next decade.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9904697180,"gmtCreate":1660030532342,"gmtModify":1703477164661,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9904697180","repostId":"1164287903","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1164287903","pubTimestamp":1660027382,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1164287903?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-09 14:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Options Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1164287903","media":"Charles Schwab","summary":"Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b8240e7962b3573d641d159391f78566\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"600\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by potentially increasing profits and reducing losses simultaneously.

However, the premium you received offsets some of the risk of foregone profits—as well as some of the risk of a small decline.</p><p>In fact, the best-case-scenario for this strategy would be the stock price rising slightly, giving you both a modest gain from stock price appreciation and some premium income from the call.</p><p><b>When do you use a covered call?</b></p><p>Investors typically write covered calls when they have a neutral to slightly bullish sentiment on the underlying stock. In many cases, the best time to sell covered calls is either at the same time you establish a long equity position (known as a &#34;buy/write&#34;), or once the equity position has already begun to move in your favor.</p><p>When establishing a covered call position, most investors sell options with a strike price that is at-the-money (or ATM, meaning the option’s strike price is the same as the stock&#39;s current market price) or slightly out-of-the-money (or OTM, meaning the strike price is above the stock’s current market price). If you write an OTM or ATM covered call and the stock remains flat or declines in value, you’re hoping the option eventually expire worthless, and you get to keep the premium you received without further obligation.</p><p>If the stock price rises above the option&#39;s strike price, it’s likely your stock will be called away (assigned) at the strike price, either prior to or at expiration. This is usually a good thing. If you sold ATM or OTM calls, the trade will generally be profitable. In fact, your profit will usually exceed what you would have earned if you had simply bought the stock and then sold it at the appreciated price, as you would receive both the proceeds from the sale of the stock at the strike price and the option premium.</p><p>That said, if the stock rises significantly, leaving the options deep in-the-money (or ITM, meaning the stock&#39;s market price is above the option’s strike price), the stock investment on its own would have been better.</p><p>Here&#39;s a hypothetical example of a covered call trade.

For this trade, that would mean a maximum profit of $5,000, representing the sum of your capital gain from the stock appreciating up to the $75 strike price and your premium from the covered call (that is: $3 x 1,000 shares of stock + $2 x 10 options contracts x 100 options multiplier). In that sense, this trade would make sense only if you thought it unlikely the price of XYZ would exceed $77 by the April expiration (representing the sum of your $72 purchase price and your max profit of $5,000).

With that in mind, here are a few cautionary points about these strategies:</p><ul><li><b>Profits.</b> Covered options usually limit your profit potential if a stock moves substantially in your favor. Anytime you sell a covered option, you have established a minimum buying price (covered put) or maximum selling price (covered call) for your stock. Any stock movement beyond that established price creates no additional profit for you.</li><li><b>Losses.</b> Losses are reduced only by the amount of premium you received on the initial sale of the option. In addition, it’s rarely a good idea to sell a covered option if your stock position has already moved significantly against you. Doing so could cause you to establish a closing price that ensures a loss. So, before you sell, ask yourself, &#34;Would I be happy if I had to close out my stock position at the strike price on this option?&#34; If you can answer &#34;yes,&#34; you’ll probably be okay.</li><li><b>Holding until expiration.</b> While our examples assume that you hold the covered position until expiration, you can usually close out a covered option at any time by buying it to close at the current market price. Regardless of whether the equity part of your strategy is profitable, waiting until expiration will maximize your return on an out-of-the-money option; however, you are not required to do so.</li><li><b>Assignment.</b> A significant change in the price of the underlying stock prior to expiration could result in an early assignment, and if your short option is in-the-money, you could be assigned at any time. Covered calls written against dividend paying stocks are especially vulnerable to early assignment.</li><li><b>Corporate events.</b> When companies merge, spin off, split, pay special dividends, etc., their options can become very complicated. </li></ul></body></html>","source":"lsy1660027232916","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>Options Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts</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\">\nOptions Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-09 14:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts><strong>Charles Schwab</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1164287903","content_text":"Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by potentially increasing profits and reducing losses simultaneously.

From 1960 through 2021, reinvested dividends accounted for 84% of the total return of the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>, according to Hartford Funds.</p><p>In other words, dividends can be powerful. If you&#39;re looking to invest in dividend-paying stocks, look no further than dividend-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs).</p><p>ETFs that prioritize dividends can provide the benefit of having higher dividend yields as well as diversification, one of the key pillars of investing. Here are three first-rate dividend ETFs to check out.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VYM\">Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF</a></h2><p>The <b>Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF</b> is a popular option with a fairly broad approach to which stocks it holds. Excluding REITs, the fund consists of 443 public U.S. companies that have paid out above-average dividends in the previous 12 months. With the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF, investors will get exposure to large-cap companies spanning all 11 sectors. And since it&#39;s market-cap weighted, larger companies make up the bulk of the fund.</p><p>A great thing about this ETF is its low cost with an expense ratio of just 0.06%. A small difference in percentages may not seem like much on paper, but higher expense ratios can eat away at your returns over time. With trailing-12-month payouts of $3.20 per share (or a 3.0% yield as of this writing), it&#39;s also in line with some top-paying dividend ETFs.</p><h2>2. SPDR S&amp;P Dividend ETF</h2><p>The <b>SPDR S&amp;P Dividend ETF</b> is a bit more selective in the stocks it includes, only screening for companies that have consistently increased their dividends at least 20 consecutive years. Although that&#39;s five years less than what it takes to attain the Dividend Aristocrat title, this ETF still consists of many of them, providing a bit more sense of reliability.</p><p>The index is weighted by dividend yield, so the higher a company&#39;s yield, the greater its representation in the fund. There are only 119 companies total, but the largest holding, <b>Franklin Resources</b>, only makes up 1.85% of it. The companies within the fund are chosen each January and reweighted every quarter.</p><p>The fund paid out $3.35 over the past year (around a 2.7% yield). However, one downside to the SPDR S&amp;P Dividend ETF is its expense ratio, which comes in a bit pricier than other options at 0.35%.</p><h2>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EMDI\">iShares</a> Core High Dividend ETF</h2><p>The <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EMEY\">iShares</a> Core High Dividend ETF</b> is the most selective of the three listed here, holding only 75 U.S. stocks that the fund has screened for financial health.

From 1960 through 2021, reinvested dividends accounted for 84% of the total return of the S&P 500, according to Hartford Funds.In other words, dividends can be powerful. If you're looking to invest in dividend-paying stocks, look no further than dividend-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs).ETFs that prioritize dividends can provide the benefit of having higher dividend yields as well as diversification, one of the key pillars of investing. Here are three first-rate dividend ETFs to check out.1. Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETFThe Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF is a popular option with a fairly broad approach to which stocks it holds. Excluding REITs, the fund consists of 443 public U.S. companies that have paid out above-average dividends in the previous 12 months. With the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF, investors will get exposure to large-cap companies spanning all 11 sectors. And since it's market-cap weighted, larger companies make up the bulk of the fund.A great thing about this ETF is its low cost with an expense ratio of just 0.06%. A small difference in percentages may not seem like much on paper, but higher expense ratios can eat away at your returns over time. With trailing-12-month payouts of $3.20 per share (or a 3.0% yield as of this writing), it's also in line with some top-paying dividend ETFs.2. SPDR S&P Dividend ETFThe SPDR S&P Dividend ETF is a bit more selective in the stocks it includes, only screening for companies that have consistently increased their dividends at least 20 consecutive years. Although that's five years less than what it takes to attain the Dividend Aristocrat title, this ETF still consists of many of them, providing a bit more sense of reliability.The index is weighted by dividend yield, so the higher a company's yield, the greater its representation in the fund. There are only 119 companies total, but the largest holding, Franklin Resources, only makes up 1.85% of it. The companies within the fund are chosen each January and reweighted every quarter.The fund paid out $3.35 over the past year (around a 2.7% yield). However, one downside to the SPDR S&P Dividend ETF is its expense ratio, which comes in a bit pricier than other options at 0.35%.3. iShares Core High Dividend ETFThe iShares Core High Dividend ETF is the most selective of the three listed here, holding only 75 U.S. stocks that the fund has screened for financial health. This ETF consists mostly of large-cap stocks, and it's a bit more top-heavy than the other ETFs with the top three holdings -- ExxonMobil, Johnson & Johnson, and Chevron -- making up over 19% of the fund. The top three sectors -- healthcare, energy, and consumer staples -- make up about 58% of the fund as well.With a $3.16 trailing-12-month payout (or a 3.1% yield), it can be a lucrative choice for investors looking to kill two birds with one stone with dividends and large-cap investing. It's also low cost with a 0.08% expense ratio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":161,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9029929833,"gmtCreate":1652716388822,"gmtModify":1676535147709,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$</a>good stock for long term investment&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MSFT\">$Microsoft(MSFT)$</a>good stock for long term investment&nbsp;","text":"$Microsoft(MSFT)$good stock for long term investment","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/1a3d1f824c902a1dc6d4ab0bb5967103","width":"750","height":"2327"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9029929833","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9069565425,"gmtCreate":1651317550767,"gmtModify":1676534889425,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is&nbsp;undervalue now.","listText":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is&nbsp;undervalue now.","text":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is undervalue now.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9069565425","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":333,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9069565425,"gmtCreate":1651317550767,"gmtModify":1676534889425,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is&nbsp;undervalue now.","listText":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is&nbsp;undervalue now.","text":"Highly recommend ADBE stock to Warren Buffet as it is undervalue now.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9069565425","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":333,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982593196,"gmtCreate":1667202607815,"gmtModify":1676537876222,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Maybe there's no more META soon","listText":"Maybe there's no more META soon","text":"Maybe there's no more META soon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9982593196","repostId":"2279825376","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2279825376","pubTimestamp":1667198111,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2279825376?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-31 14:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Meta: Buy It For The Next Decade","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2279825376","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Meta (NASDAQ:META) has been in the news lately, and not for good reasons.

The company missed Q3 earnings estimates badly and lowered fourth quarter guidance. Declining ad revenue and higher costs put pressure on Meta&#39;s sales, margins, profits, and share price. The company&#39;s stock crashed by approximately 25% Thursday, as traders dumped shares first and didn&#39;t ask many questions.</p><p><b>META 1-Year Chart</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a59f88c64844e100c0741341e16b539\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"676\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>META (StockCharts.com )</p><p>Remarkably, Meta&#39;s stock price is down by a staggering 75% since the epic tech top blew off last November. Meta was in the elite club of the trillion-dollar tech juggernauts around its peak. Unfortunately for many shareholders, Meta&#39;s market cap has dwindled to just about $266 billion. However, Meta&#39;s revenue and earnings decline phase is transitory. The company remains a dominant market leader in the online ad space and should return to revenue and EPS growth in the coming years.</p><p>Meanwhile, the stock is absurdly cheap at roughly two times sales and a P/E ratio of around 10. The near-term downside is likely limited for Meta&#39;s stock now. However, as Meta returns to revenue growth and improves profitability, its stock price should increase considerably, making it one of the best stocks to own for the next decade.</p><h2>Earnings - A Transitory Problem</h2><p>While Meta beat Q3 revenue estimates by approximately $300 million, the $27.7 billion sales figure was 4.5% below last year. However, it was Q3&#39;s EPS that spooked investors even more. Meta delivered $1.64 in EPS, badly missing the consensus mark by 22 cents. Moreover, in Q3 2021, the company had a whopping $3.22 in EPS. So, we&#39;re looking at a 49% YoY EPS decline. Pretty shocking, right?</p><p>Nevertheless, there was more bad news. Meta&#39;s average price per ad decreased by 18% YoY. I began warning of the spread of ad revenue declines in May in my &#34;Snap&#39;s Warning For Everyone&#34; article (Meta&#39;s stock was around $220 then). Meta&#39;s ad sales have been softening for months, and we see its ad revenues and profits continuing to slide. Meta expects fourth-quarter total revenues to be $30-32.5 billion vs. $32.21 consensus estimates. Q4 2021 revenue came in at <i>$33.67 billion</i>. Presuming that Meta can hit the mid-range of its estimate ($31.25 billion), we&#39;d see about a 7% YoY revenue decline. Naturally, this is not pretty, but the good news is that Meta&#39;s revenue and earnings decline phase is probably transitory and will likely pass soon. Once the downturn concludes, Meta should return to growing sales and increasing profits again.</p><h2>Revenue Growth and EPS Expansion Should Return</h2><p>Meta, or Facebook as I still like to call it, is a dominant, market-leading company with exceptional revenue growth and profitability potential. Facebook and its units amount to a social media monopoly, which should be very good for the company&#39;s business in the coming years.</p><p><b>Facebook Monthly Active Users</b> (MAUs)</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4a387408d6bb1e43de869256c2ffe53\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"415\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>FB MAUs (Statista.com )</p><p>Facebook has around 3 billion monthly active users and roughly 2 billion Daily Active Users (DAUs). Also, both numbers increased on a YoY basis. MAUs grew by 2%, and DAUs increased by 3% YoY. These are massive numbers representing much of the global population using the Internet. While Facebook has a giant ecosystem that should not be underestimated, the company&#39;s goldmine is Instagram.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81ec396ce7e4e2a1c323425e1f2e398e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"472\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Instagram stats (Statista.com )</p><p>Instagram has well over a billion users and is one of the most popular and influential social media platforms globally. Moreover, we see that IG is growing and should continue providing robust growth for Meta in the coming years. Also, remember that Meta owns WhatsApp, which has about 2 billion users, and Messenger, with more than one billion. In addition, Meta owns numerous secondary businesses with significant growth and profit potential to make up for declining social media growth in future years.</p><h2>Let&#39;s Look At Some Numbers</h2><p>The company&#39;s estimates got slashed severely due to Facebook&#39;s transitory revenue and earnings decline phase.</p><p><b>EPS Revisions </b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/772659d738708b1100a8d61fbc5088ca\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>EPS revisions (SeekingAlpha.com )</p><p>The revisions have been brutal and an ongoing phenomenon for quarters. However, many analysts&#39; estimates may be overly pessimistic after the recent report. Meta&#39;s 2027 consensus EPS estimate dropped from around $35 to roughly $13 over the last year. In fact, after such draconian downgrades, many analysts seem convinced that Meta will show very little or no EPS growth in future years.</p><p>We have an extraordinary situation with Meta. The market doesn&#39;t believe in Meta&#39;s ability to return to sufficient revenue growth and questions the company&#39;s earning potential. However, the market is likely looking very short term here. The economic downturn won&#39;t last forever, and while Meta&#39;s profits are dropping due to less ad spending and higher costs, this too shall pass. Meta is one of the few critical technology companies like to dominate over the next decade. Therefore, despite the absurdly negative sentiment and the rock-bottom EPS and growth estimates, Meta is one of the top stocks to own over the next 10 years. Also, there&#39;s a high probability that Meta may surpass consensus EPS and revenue estimates as the company advances.</p><p><b>Revenue Estimates </b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7226214110060a01bb902e26e24ccd79\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"266\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Revenue estimates (SeekingAlpha.com )</p><p>Meta&#39;s consensus revenue estimate has dropped to about $116.5 billion this year. This result would equate to a YoY revenue decline of roughly 1.2%. However, my estimate is $118 billion, roughly flat relative to 2021 revenues. Next year&#39;s revenue estimates range from $116 - 147 billion, a vast range. Nevertheless, next year&#39;s consensus estimate is about $124 billion (lowballed, in my view). This revenue increase would represent YoY growth of about 7%. I estimate a 10% YoY revenue increase to roughly $130 billion in 2023. After that, we could see Meta provide high single to low double-digit revenue growth through 2030.</p><p><b>Here&#39;s What Meta&#39;s Financials Could Look Like As We Advance: </b></p><table><tbody><tr><td><b>Year</b></td><td><b>2022</b></td><td><b>2023</b></td><td><b>2024</b></td><td><b>2025</b></td><td><b>2026</b></td><td><b>2027</b></td><td><b>2028</b></td><td><b>2029</b></td><td><b>2030</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue Bs</b></td><td>$118</td><td>$130</td><td>$145</td><td>$165</td><td>$184</td><td>$205</td><td>$225</td><td>$245</td><td>$265</td></tr><tr><td><b>Revenue growth</b></td><td>0%</td><td>10%</td><td>12%</td><td>13%</td><td>12%</td><td>11%</td><td>10%</td><td>9%</td><td>8%</td></tr><tr><td><b>EPS</b></td><td>$9.50</td><td>$12</td><td>$15</td><td>$19</td><td>$22</td><td>$26</td><td>$31</td><td>$37</td><td>$45</td></tr><tr><td><b>Forward P/E</b></td><td>8</td><td>12</td><td>14</td><td>16</td><td>17</td><td>16</td><td>15</td><td>13</td><td>12</td></tr><tr><td><b>Stock price</b></td><td>$100</td><td>$180</td><td>$266</td><td>$330</td><td>$442</td><td>$496</td><td>$555</td><td>$585</td><td>$600</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Click to enlarge</p><p>Source: The Financial Prophet</p><h2>The Bottom Line</h2><p>Meta is one of the top technology companies in the world and is essentially a social media monopoly. Thus, revenue growth should return and increase in future years. Some people may have differing views, but Meta&#39;s leading position in the Metaverse space could pay off enormously in the coming years. Therefore, the company&#39;s revenues, profits, and share price could increase more significantly than many rock-bottom estimates imply. With modest revenue growth, annual EPS growth of around 15%-25%, and modest P/E multiple expansion, Meta&#39;s stock price should appreciate substantially over the next decade.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Meta: Buy It For The Next Decade</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\">\nMeta: Buy It For The Next Decade\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-31 14:35 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4550969-meta-a-buy-for-next-decade><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Meta (NASDAQ:META) has been in the news lately, and not for good reasons.

The company missed Q3 earnings estimates badly and lowered fourth quarter guidance. Declining ad revenue and higher costs put pressure on Meta's sales, margins, profits, and share price. The company's stock crashed by approximately 25% Thursday, as traders dumped shares first and didn't ask many questions.META 1-Year ChartMETA (StockCharts.com )Remarkably, Meta's stock price is down by a staggering 75% since the epic tech top blew off last November. Meta was in the elite club of the trillion-dollar tech juggernauts around its peak. Unfortunately for many shareholders, Meta's market cap has dwindled to just about $266 billion. However, Meta's revenue and earnings decline phase is transitory. The company remains a dominant market leader in the online ad space and should return to revenue and EPS growth in the coming years.Meanwhile, the stock is absurdly cheap at roughly two times sales and a P/E ratio of around 10. The near-term downside is likely limited for Meta's stock now. However, as Meta returns to revenue growth and improves profitability, its stock price should increase considerably, making it one of the best stocks to own for the next decade.Earnings - A Transitory ProblemWhile Meta beat Q3 revenue estimates by approximately $300 million, the $27.7 billion sales figure was 4.5% below last year. However, it was Q3's EPS that spooked investors even more. Meta delivered $1.64 in EPS, badly missing the consensus mark by 22 cents. Moreover, in Q3 2021, the company had a whopping $3.22 in EPS. So, we're looking at a 49% YoY EPS decline. Pretty shocking, right?Nevertheless, there was more bad news. Meta's average price per ad decreased by 18% YoY. I began warning of the spread of ad revenue declines in May in my \"Snap's Warning For Everyone\" article (Meta's stock was around $220 then). Meta's ad sales have been softening for months, and we see its ad revenues and profits continuing to slide. Meta expects fourth-quarter total revenues to be $30-32.5 billion vs. $32.21 consensus estimates. Q4 2021 revenue came in at $33.67 billion. Presuming that Meta can hit the mid-range of its estimate ($31.25 billion), we'd see about a 7% YoY revenue decline. Naturally, this is not pretty, but the good news is that Meta's revenue and earnings decline phase is probably transitory and will likely pass soon. Once the downturn concludes, Meta should return to growing sales and increasing profits again.Revenue Growth and EPS Expansion Should ReturnMeta, or Facebook as I still like to call it, is a dominant, market-leading company with exceptional revenue growth and profitability potential. Facebook and its units amount to a social media monopoly, which should be very good for the company's business in the coming years.Facebook Monthly Active Users (MAUs)FB MAUs (Statista.com )Facebook has around 3 billion monthly active users and roughly 2 billion Daily Active Users (DAUs). Also, both numbers increased on a YoY basis. MAUs grew by 2%, and DAUs increased by 3% YoY. These are massive numbers representing much of the global population using the Internet. While Facebook has a giant ecosystem that should not be underestimated, the company's goldmine is Instagram.Instagram stats (Statista.com )Instagram has well over a billion users and is one of the most popular and influential social media platforms globally. Moreover, we see that IG is growing and should continue providing robust growth for Meta in the coming years. Also, remember that Meta owns WhatsApp, which has about 2 billion users, and Messenger, with more than one billion. In addition, Meta owns numerous secondary businesses with significant growth and profit potential to make up for declining social media growth in future years.Let's Look At Some NumbersThe company's estimates got slashed severely due to Facebook's transitory revenue and earnings decline phase.EPS Revisions EPS revisions (SeekingAlpha.com )The revisions have been brutal and an ongoing phenomenon for quarters. However, many analysts' estimates may be overly pessimistic after the recent report. Meta's 2027 consensus EPS estimate dropped from around $35 to roughly $13 over the last year. In fact, after such draconian downgrades, many analysts seem convinced that Meta will show very little or no EPS growth in future years.We have an extraordinary situation with Meta. The market doesn't believe in Meta's ability to return to sufficient revenue growth and questions the company's earning potential. However, the market is likely looking very short term here. The economic downturn won't last forever, and while Meta's profits are dropping due to less ad spending and higher costs, this too shall pass. Meta is one of the few critical technology companies like to dominate over the next decade. Therefore, despite the absurdly negative sentiment and the rock-bottom EPS and growth estimates, Meta is one of the top stocks to own over the next 10 years. Also, there's a high probability that Meta may surpass consensus EPS and revenue estimates as the company advances.Revenue Estimates Revenue estimates (SeekingAlpha.com )Meta's consensus revenue estimate has dropped to about $116.5 billion this year. This result would equate to a YoY revenue decline of roughly 1.2%. However, my estimate is $118 billion, roughly flat relative to 2021 revenues. Next year's revenue estimates range from $116 - 147 billion, a vast range. Nevertheless, next year's consensus estimate is about $124 billion (lowballed, in my view). This revenue increase would represent YoY growth of about 7%. I estimate a 10% YoY revenue increase to roughly $130 billion in 2023. After that, we could see Meta provide high single to low double-digit revenue growth through 2030.Here's What Meta's Financials Could Look Like As We Advance: Year202220232024202520262027202820292030Revenue Bs$118$130$145$165$184$205$225$245$265Revenue growth0%10%12%13%12%11%10%9%8%EPS$9.50$12$15$19$22$26$31$37$45Forward P/E81214161716151312Stock price$100$180$266$330$442$496$555$585$600Click to enlargeSource: The Financial ProphetThe Bottom LineMeta is one of the top technology companies in the world and is essentially a social media monopoly. Thus, revenue growth should return and increase in future years. Some people may have differing views, but Meta's leading position in the Metaverse space could pay off enormously in the coming years. Therefore, the company's revenues, profits, and share price could increase more significantly than many rock-bottom estimates imply. With modest revenue growth, annual EPS growth of around 15%-25%, and modest P/E multiple expansion, Meta's stock price should appreciate substantially over the next decade.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9904697180,"gmtCreate":1660030532342,"gmtModify":1703477164661,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9904697180","repostId":"1164287903","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1164287903","pubTimestamp":1660027382,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1164287903?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-09 14:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Options Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1164287903","media":"Charles Schwab","summary":"Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b8240e7962b3573d641d159391f78566\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"600\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by potentially increasing profits and reducing losses simultaneously. Let&#39;s discuss how.</p><p><b>What is a covered call?</b></p><p>A covered call is when you <b>sell</b> <i>someone else</i> the right to purchase shares of a stock that <i>you already own</i> (hence &#34;covered&#34;), at a specified price (strike price), at any time on or before a specified date (expiration date). The payment you receive in exchange is called a premium, which you keep regardless of whether the call is exercised.</p><p>As a result, covered calls can help generate income in a flat or mildly uptrending market. If the price of the underlying stock rises above the call option&#39;s strike price, the covered call buyer can exercise their right to purchase the stock, and you would relinquish any gains on the underlying stock above the strike price. However, the premium you received offsets some of the risk of foregone profits—as well as some of the risk of a small decline.</p><p>In fact, the best-case-scenario for this strategy would be the stock price rising slightly, giving you both a modest gain from stock price appreciation and some premium income from the call.</p><p><b>When do you use a covered call?</b></p><p>Investors typically write covered calls when they have a neutral to slightly bullish sentiment on the underlying stock. In many cases, the best time to sell covered calls is either at the same time you establish a long equity position (known as a &#34;buy/write&#34;), or once the equity position has already begun to move in your favor.</p><p>When establishing a covered call position, most investors sell options with a strike price that is at-the-money (or ATM, meaning the option’s strike price is the same as the stock&#39;s current market price) or slightly out-of-the-money (or OTM, meaning the strike price is above the stock’s current market price). If you write an OTM or ATM covered call and the stock remains flat or declines in value, you’re hoping the option eventually expire worthless, and you get to keep the premium you received without further obligation.</p><p>If the stock price rises above the option&#39;s strike price, it’s likely your stock will be called away (assigned) at the strike price, either prior to or at expiration. This is usually a good thing. If you sold ATM or OTM calls, the trade will generally be profitable. In fact, your profit will usually exceed what you would have earned if you had simply bought the stock and then sold it at the appreciated price, as you would receive both the proceeds from the sale of the stock at the strike price and the option premium.</p><p>That said, if the stock rises significantly, leaving the options deep in-the-money (or ITM, meaning the stock&#39;s market price is above the option’s strike price), the stock investment on its own would have been better.</p><p>Here&#39;s a hypothetical example of a covered call trade. Let&#39;s assume you:</p><ul><li>Buy 1,000 shares of XYZ stock @ $72 per share</li><li>Sell 10 XYZ Apr 75 calls @ $2.00 (Note that each standard call or put generally represents 100 shares of the underlying stock, thus, the 1,000 shares &#34;cover&#34; the 10 calls sold).</li></ul><p>The two points provided by the covered call create some immediate downside protection because you wouldn&#39;t experience a loss on the position unless the stock you bought for $72 a share dropped below $70. Another way to think of it is that even if the stock price dropped to zero, you would still have $2,000 from the 10 covered calls you sold (that is: $2 x 10 covered calls x the option multiplier of 100).</p><p>The trade-off is that you would effectively cap your potential profit if the share price rose significantly above the strike price. For this trade, that would mean a maximum profit of $5,000, representing the sum of your capital gain from the stock appreciating up to the $75 strike price and your premium from the covered call (that is: $3 x 1,000 shares of stock + $2 x 10 options contracts x 100 options multiplier). In that sense, this trade would make sense only if you thought it unlikely the price of XYZ would exceed $77 by the April expiration (representing the sum of your $72 purchase price and your max profit of $5,000). If XYZ did increase above $77, it would have been more profitable not to have written the covered call.</p><p>As you can see in the profit and loss chart below:</p><ul><li>The breakeven price is $70.</li><li>The profit is capped at $5,000 for all prices above $75.</li><li>Losses will be incurred below $70; down to zero.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c288f9964e4489d40f7cb103dd2e7238\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"378\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Note: Chart depicts strategy at expiration.</span></p><p><b>What is a covered put?</b></p><p>Covered puts work essentially the same way as covered calls, except that you&#39;re writing an option against a short position, meaning a stock you&#39;ve borrowed and then sold on the open market. Whereas writing a covered call involves selling someone else the right to buy a stock you own, selling covered puts against a short equity position creates an obligation for you to buy the stock back at the strike price of the put option.</p><p>This strategy typically makes sense when you have a neutral to slightly bearish sentiment.</p><p>As with covered calls, you can sell covered puts either when you establish the position (called a &#34;sell/write&#34;), or once the short equity position has already begun to move in your favor.</p><p>Here&#39;s an example of a covered put trade. Let&#39;s assume you:</p><ul><li>Sell short 1000 shares of XYZ @ 72</li><li>Sell 10 XYZ Apr 70 puts @ 2</li></ul><p>In the chart below, you&#39;ll see that:</p><ul><li>The breakeven price is $74.</li><li>The profit is capped at $4,000 for all prices below 70, i.e.: $2 x 1,000 [shares of stock] + $2 x 10 [options contracts] x 100 [options multiplier]</li><li>Losses will be incurred above $74.</li></ul><p>You would want to employ this strategy only if you thought the price of XYZ wouldn&#39;t fall below $70 by the April expiration. If XYZ did fall below $70, the short stock trade alone would be more profitable. Losses are potentially unlimited if the stock price continued to increase, but they would always be $2,000 less than the stock trade alone.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79dcc9c0e2f28eb658cca60354cd5a74\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"373\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Note: Chart depicts strategy at expiration.</span></p><p><b>Risk managed, not eliminated</b></p><p>While covered calls and covered puts can reduce risk somewhat, they cannot eliminate it entirely. With that in mind, here are a few cautionary points about these strategies:</p><ul><li><b>Profits.</b> Covered options usually limit your profit potential if a stock moves substantially in your favor. Anytime you sell a covered option, you have established a minimum buying price (covered put) or maximum selling price (covered call) for your stock. Any stock movement beyond that established price creates no additional profit for you.</li><li><b>Losses.</b> Losses are reduced only by the amount of premium you received on the initial sale of the option. In addition, it’s rarely a good idea to sell a covered option if your stock position has already moved significantly against you. Doing so could cause you to establish a closing price that ensures a loss. So, before you sell, ask yourself, &#34;Would I be happy if I had to close out my stock position at the strike price on this option?&#34; If you can answer &#34;yes,&#34; you’ll probably be okay.</li><li><b>Holding until expiration.</b> While our examples assume that you hold the covered position until expiration, you can usually close out a covered option at any time by buying it to close at the current market price. Regardless of whether the equity part of your strategy is profitable, waiting until expiration will maximize your return on an out-of-the-money option; however, you are not required to do so.</li><li><b>Assignment.</b> A significant change in the price of the underlying stock prior to expiration could result in an early assignment, and if your short option is in-the-money, you could be assigned at any time. Covered calls written against dividend paying stocks are especially vulnerable to early assignment.</li><li><b>Corporate events.</b> When companies merge, spin off, split, pay special dividends, etc., their options can become very complicated. </li></ul></body></html>","source":"lsy1660027232916","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>Options Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts</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\">\nOptions Strategies: Covered Calls & Covered Puts\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-09 14:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts><strong>Charles Schwab</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/options-strategies-covered-calls-covered-puts","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1164287903","content_text":"Learn the basics of covered calls and covered puts, and when to use them to manage your risks when trading options.When employed correctly, covered calls and covered puts can help manage risk by potentially increasing profits and reducing losses simultaneously.

In many cases, the best time to sell covered calls is either at the same time you establish a long equity position (known as a \"buy/write\"), or once the equity position has already begun to move in your favor.When establishing a covered call position, most investors sell options with a strike price that is at-the-money (or ATM, meaning the option’s strike price is the same as the stock's current market price) or slightly out-of-the-money (or OTM, meaning the strike price is above the stock’s current market price). If you write an OTM or ATM covered call and the stock remains flat or declines in value, you’re hoping the option eventually expire worthless, and you get to keep the premium you received without further obligation.If the stock price rises above the option's strike price, it’s likely your stock will be called away (assigned) at the strike price, either prior to or at expiration. This is usually a good thing. If you sold ATM or OTM calls, the trade will generally be profitable. In fact, your profit will usually exceed what you would have earned if you had simply bought the stock and then sold it at the appreciated price, as you would receive both the proceeds from the sale of the stock at the strike price and the option premium.That said, if the stock rises significantly, leaving the options deep in-the-money (or ITM, meaning the stock's market price is above the option’s strike price), the stock investment on its own would have been better.Here's a hypothetical example of a covered call trade. Let's assume you:Buy 1,000 shares of XYZ stock @ $72 per shareSell 10 XYZ Apr 75 calls @ $2.00 (Note that each standard call or put generally represents 100 shares of the underlying stock, thus, the 1,000 shares \"cover\" the 10 calls sold).The two points provided by the covered call create some immediate downside protection because you wouldn't experience a loss on the position unless the stock you bought for $72 a share dropped below $70. Another way to think of it is that even if the stock price dropped to zero, you would still have $2,000 from the 10 covered calls you sold (that is: $2 x 10 covered calls x the option multiplier of 100).The trade-off is that you would effectively cap your potential profit if the share price rose significantly above the strike price. For this trade, that would mean a maximum profit of $5,000, representing the sum of your capital gain from the stock appreciating up to the $75 strike price and your premium from the covered call (that is: $3 x 1,000 shares of stock + $2 x 10 options contracts x 100 options multiplier). In that sense, this trade would make sense only if you thought it unlikely the price of XYZ would exceed $77 by the April expiration (representing the sum of your $72 purchase price and your max profit of $5,000). If XYZ did increase above $77, it would have been more profitable not to have written the covered call.As you can see in the profit and loss chart below:The breakeven price is $70.The profit is capped at $5,000 for all prices above $75.Losses will be incurred below $70; down to zero.Note: Chart depicts strategy at expiration.What is a covered put?Covered puts work essentially the same way as covered calls, except that you're writing an option against a short position, meaning a stock you've borrowed and then sold on the open market. Whereas writing a covered call involves selling someone else the right to buy a stock you own, selling covered puts against a short equity position creates an obligation for you to buy the stock back at the strike price of the put option.This strategy typically makes sense when you have a neutral to slightly bearish sentiment.As with covered calls, you can sell covered puts either when you establish the position (called a \"sell/write\"), or once the short equity position has already begun to move in your favor.Here's an example of a covered put trade. Let's assume you:Sell short 1000 shares of XYZ @ 72Sell 10 XYZ Apr 70 puts @ 2In the chart below, you'll see that:The breakeven price is $74.The profit is capped at $4,000 for all prices below 70, i.e.: $2 x 1,000 [shares of stock] + $2 x 10 [options contracts] x 100 [options multiplier]Losses will be incurred above $74.You would want to employ this strategy only if you thought the price of XYZ wouldn't fall below $70 by the April expiration. If XYZ did fall below $70, the short stock trade alone would be more profitable. Losses are potentially unlimited if the stock price continued to increase, but they would always be $2,000 less than the stock trade alone.Note: Chart depicts strategy at expiration.Risk managed, not eliminatedWhile covered calls and covered puts can reduce risk somewhat, they cannot eliminate it entirely. With that in mind, here are a few cautionary points about these strategies:Profits. Covered options usually limit your profit potential if a stock moves substantially in your favor. Anytime you sell a covered option, you have established a minimum buying price (covered put) or maximum selling price (covered call) for your stock. Any stock movement beyond that established price creates no additional profit for you.Losses. Losses are reduced only by the amount of premium you received on the initial sale of the option. In addition, it’s rarely a good idea to sell a covered option if your stock position has already moved significantly against you. Doing so could cause you to establish a closing price that ensures a loss. So, before you sell, ask yourself, \"Would I be happy if I had to close out my stock position at the strike price on this option?\" If you can answer \"yes,\" you’ll probably be okay.Holding until expiration. While our examples assume that you hold the covered position until expiration, you can usually close out a covered option at any time by buying it to close at the current market price. Regardless of whether the equity part of your strategy is profitable, waiting until expiration will maximize your return on an out-of-the-money option; however, you are not required to do so.Assignment. A significant change in the price of the underlying stock prior to expiration could result in an early assignment, and if your short option is in-the-money, you could be assigned at any time. Covered calls written against dividend paying stocks are especially vulnerable to early assignment.Corporate events. When companies merge, spin off, split, pay special dividends, etc., their options can become very complicated.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":200,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9905042414,"gmtCreate":1659780596740,"gmtModify":1703766512411,"author":{"id":"4114301728305782","authorId":"4114301728305782","name":"ljyeang","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/77021fd8d8627dfdff078b1b54576786","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4114301728305782","authorIdStr":"4114301728305782"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good etfS&nbsp;around usd100++","listText":"Good etfS&nbsp;around usd100++","text":"Good etfS around usd100++","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9905042414","repostId":"2257198726","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2257198726","pubTimestamp":1659757800,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2257198726?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-06 11:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 First-Rate ETFs for Stock Dividends","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2257198726","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"You can't go wrong with reliable income.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>It can&#39;t be overstated just how pivotal dividends can be to an investors&#39; total returns -- especially when reinvested.
