4 Reliable Dividend Stocks I Will Buy if I Had S$40,000

Selling options changed my whole investment and trading strategy! Maintaining a small account, I was all this while buying stock and selling stock a few months down the road making single and low double digit gains. Having explored options, I have been making gains on a weekly and monthly basis in high double digit gains and triple digit gains. My favourite option strategy is selling put and bullish vertical put spread. 1) what to buy? Things I look out for when choosing an option trade is to trade on good and stable companies that I don't mind owning if I get assigned the stock which is also good news as that means I am buying a stock I like at lower price 2) When to buy? I buy when a stock has dropped significantly or dropped to a support level

I buy when a stock has dropped significantly or dropped to a support level","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":2,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/260076874014896","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":428,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":257555492364360,"gmtCreate":1703913654280,"gmtModify":1703913658865,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"This year was super cool for trading shares! made money by picking smart stocks and being careful with our choices.

While a $3,000 investment probably won&#39;t make you a millionaire in the next 10 years, there is a handful of stocks that could turn that relatively small amount into a much bigger sum of money within a decade. Here&#39;s a rundown of three such prospects.</p><h2 id=\"id_2596200605\">Novo Nordisk</h2><p>Investors should always be wary of market manias; many of them unexpectedly fizzle out with no warning. The cannabis craze of 2018 comes to mind, as does 2013&#39;s 3D printing frenzy. Then there&#39;s the dot-com meltdown of 2000. Sometimes these big, sweeping rallies end up being justified. Often, however, they don&#39;t.</p><p>Enter <strong>Novo Nordisk</strong>.</p><p>If you&#39;ve kept your finger on the pulse of the pharmaceutical market this year, then you know one of its top themes of 2023 has been weight-loss drugs. <strong>Eli Lilly</strong>&#39;s Zepbound was just approved by the U.S. Food &amp; Drug Administration for this purpose, joining Novo Nordisk&#39;s Wegovy, which was approved by the FDA for the same purpose back in 2021. Demand for Wegovy was already robust, but the addition of a competing product seems to have stoked bullish interest in both. Lilly&#39;s stock is up 90% from March&#39;s bottom, while Novo Nordisk shares have more than doubled in value from last year&#39;s low.</p><p>These gains and their backstory certainly have some of the hallmarks of a fad, leaving them seemingly vulnerable to a sizable pullback. And that may well be what&#39;s in the cards.</p><p>This may be one of those cases, however, where the eventual results could live up to the current hype. <strong>Goldman Sachs</strong> believes the anti-obesity drug market could become a $100 billion market as soon as 2030, led by the likes of Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly. That&#39;s 16 times bigger than the market is right now. Both companies are positioned to benefit from this impending growth. But being the first to market and therefore better established, Novo is arguably the better pick of the two. Its strong position in the diabetes care space -- a market that Precedence Research expects to grow at an annualized pace of 6.7% through 2032 -- only bolsters its bullish argument.</p><h2 id=\"id_3302017519\">Boeing</h2><p>There&#39;s no denying<strong> The Boeing Company</strong> has had a rough go of things lately. First it was design problems for its once-highly lauded 737 Max. Then the COVID-19 pandemic took hold, crimping air travel and therefore crimping demand for new aircraft. A manufacturing defect discovered on some of its new 787 passenger jets surfaced in the meantime.</p><p>It looks bad, and it is. These aren&#39;t insurmountable problems, though, even if the market is still largely treating them as if they are; shares are priced more or less where they were in early 2020.</p><p>The evidence of impending bullishness? It starts with last quarter&#39;s results. Although still in the red, Boeing&#39;s top line was up 13% year over year for the three-month stretch ending in September, cutting into its losses. Airlines are clearly buying more of its planes now.</p><p>And they intend to keep doing so. With the addition of 841 net new aircraft orders being placed this year, Boeing&#39;s backlog of ordered but undelivered aircraft now stands at a multiyear high of 5,866. That&#39;s nearly $500 billion worth of business already lined up just waiting to be delivered and then booked.</p><p>Then there&#39;s the bigger driver of Boeing&#39;s long-term growth...sheer demand.</p><p>In simplest terms, the world&#39;s air travel business has plenty of runway left to continue growing. With costs coming down and new airports being built, Boeing believes the world&#39;s airlines will need to purchase more than 42,000 new passenger jets between now and 2042. For perspective, numbers from industry research outfit Oliver Wyman suggest there are around 27,400 commercial aircraft in use right now. That&#39;s well short of the current need, and bear in mind that most of the jets now actively used in airline fleets will be retired between now and then.</p><p>There are competing aircraft manufacturers. The world will need all of them for the next couple of decades, however, including Boeing.</p><h2 id=\"id_3096089037\">Palantir Technologies</h2><p>Finally, add <strong>Palantir Technologies</strong> to your list of stocks that could make you relatively rich(er) over the course of the coming 10 years.</p><p>Palantir is an artificial intelligence company. Specifically, it provides its customers with a means of turning mountains of digital data into actionable information. Its Foundry platform, for instance, can help biopharma companies optimize a clinical trial of a drug. Palantir&#39;s Apollo allows software companies to roll out complicated products sold to the federal government, which has strict security requirements.</p><p>It&#39;s an important bridge between AI&#39;s theoretical capabilities and actually doing something practical -- and marketable -- with artificial intelligence.</p><p>And the company&#39;s results confirm this idea. Last quarter&#39;s top line of $558 million was up 17% year over year, and guidance of around $600 million worth of revenue for the quarter currently underway is 18% better than the prior-year&#39;s top line. Next year&#39;s growth rate should be even stronger. More important, this already-profitable company&#39;s bottom line is soaring now. Last quarter&#39;s adjusted per-share profit of $0.07 puts the company on pace for a full-year profit of $0.25, en route to an expected $0.29 per share for 2024.</p><p>This is still just the beginning, however. Now that AI is being proven useful in real-world settings, Precedence Research expects the annual AI software market to swell from around $170 billion this year to more than $1 trillion in 2023. That&#39;s a compounded annual growth rate of nearly 23%.</p><p>Palantir Technologies is well positioned to capture at least its fair share of this growth.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>$3,000 Invested in These 3 Top Stocks Could Make You Rich in 10 Years</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\">\n$3,000 Invested in These 3 Top Stocks Could Make You Rich in 10 Years\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-11-24 11:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/11/23/3000-invested-in-these-3-top-stocks-could-make-you/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe hype seems eerily familiar, but Novo Nordisk’s weight-loss drug may well meet lofty sales expectations.Despite plenty of headaches, Boeing is showing strength in front of a massive wave ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/11/23/3000-invested-in-these-3-top-stocks-could-make-you/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4516":"特朗普概念","BK4187":"航天航空与国防","NVO":"诺和诺德","BK4547":"WSB热门概念","BK4543":"AI","BK4551":"寇图资本持仓","PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc.","BK4585":"ETF&股票定投概念","BA":"波音","LU2326559502.SGD":"Natixis Loomis Sayles US Growth Equity P/A SGD-H","LU1429558221.USD":"Natixis Loomis Sayles US Growth Equity RA USD","LU1435385759.SGD":"Natixis Loomis Sayles US Growth Equity RA SGD-H","BK4564":"太空概念","BK4588":"碎股","BK4023":"应用软件"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/11/23/3000-invested-in-these-3-top-stocks-could-make-you/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2385622871","content_text":"KEY POINTSThe hype seems eerily familiar, but Novo Nordisk’s weight-loss drug may well meet lofty sales expectations.Despite plenty of headaches, Boeing is showing strength in front of a massive wave of demand for new passenger jets.The artificial intelligence software market is on the verge of exploding, bringing Palantir Technologies along for the ride.Would you like to become rich in a short period of time?

Many on Wall Street have been sounding an alert for a new tech bull market thanks in large part to artificial intelligence (AI).</p><p>The biggest technology companies in the world by market capitalization are collectively referred to as the &#34;Magnificent Seven&#34;: Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta Platforms. After digesting the most recent earnings reports for each, I believe that four of them look too good to pass up.</p><p>Let&#39;s see why Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta not only look like great buys at the moment, but also are laying the groundwork for durable success. For long-term investors, these four AI leaders might just help someone reach millionaire status.</p><h2 id=\"id_2765094458\">1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a></h2><p>Microsoft is best known for its Windows operating system and suite of productivity tools including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word. However, for the past several years, the company has been gaining momentum in cloud computing, spearheaded by its platform Azure. </p><p>Earlier this year, Microsoft invested $10 billion in OpenAI and its flagship product ChatGPT. Over the last few months, Microsoft has started rolling out new features powered by OpenAI. In its most recent earnings report, the company reported 29% annual growth in Azure, with 3 percentage points of this growth driven by AI.</p><p>For several months, the company has been preparing a new product, 365 Copilot, an AI-powered assistant using large language models and generative AI to integrate with Microsoft&#39;s various tools including search, cloud, and productivity applications. The commercial release is currently underway, with some on Wall Street thinking it could be a $100 billion opportunity for Microsoft.</p><h2 id=\"id_3912467300\">2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a></h2><p>Following Microsoft&#39;s investment in OpenAI earlier this year, Alphabet quickly followed suit with a partnership with a rival start-up called Anthropic. For the last couple of quarters, Alphabet has been showing investors how its integrating AI into its core products, including advertising, cloud computing, and productivity tools.</p><p>Advertising is the company&#39;s largest revenue and profit contributor. But its ad business was one of the bigger investor concerns for most of 2022, largely due to competing services like TikTok and Instagram.</p><p>Growth was shrinking in advertising -- particularly on its video-sharing platform YouTube -- which was having a material effect on profitability, leaving some to wonder if the company&#39;s best days were behind it.</p><p>But the last couple of quarters have contained a lot of bright spots.

Many on Wall Street have been sounding an alert for a new tech bull market thanks in large part to artificial intelligence (AI).The biggest technology companies in the world by market capitalization are collectively referred to as the \"Magnificent Seven\": Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta Platforms. After digesting the most recent earnings reports for each, I believe that four of them look too good to pass up.Let's see why Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta not only look like great buys at the moment, but also are laying the groundwork for durable success. For long-term investors, these four AI leaders might just help someone reach millionaire status.1. MicrosoftMicrosoft is best known for its Windows operating system and suite of productivity tools including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word. However, for the past several years, the company has been gaining momentum in cloud computing, spearheaded by its platform Azure. Earlier this year, Microsoft invested $10 billion in OpenAI and its flagship product ChatGPT. Over the last few months, Microsoft has started rolling out new features powered by OpenAI. In its most recent earnings report, the company reported 29% annual growth in Azure, with 3 percentage points of this growth driven by AI.For several months, the company has been preparing a new product, 365 Copilot, an AI-powered assistant using large language models and generative AI to integrate with Microsoft's various tools including search, cloud, and productivity applications. The commercial release is currently underway, with some on Wall Street thinking it could be a $100 billion opportunity for Microsoft.2. AlphabetFollowing Microsoft's investment in OpenAI earlier this year, Alphabet quickly followed suit with a partnership with a rival start-up called Anthropic. For the last couple of quarters, Alphabet has been showing investors how its integrating AI into its core products, including advertising, cloud computing, and productivity tools.Advertising is the company's largest revenue and profit contributor. But its ad business was one of the bigger investor concerns for most of 2022, largely due to competing services like TikTok and Instagram.Growth was shrinking in advertising -- particularly on its video-sharing platform YouTube -- which was having a material effect on profitability, leaving some to wonder if the company's best days were behind it.But the last couple of quarters have contained a lot of bright spots. Advertising growth has started to rebound, which management attributes to inroads made with generative AI and how it's becoming a core pillar of advertising tools. Ad spending can be cyclical, so it is crucial that Alphabet shows its customers that it has the best capabilities in targeting ads to a specific demographic.One of the more encouraging points in the third-quarter earnings report was the growth in operating income for its services business, which is primarily made up of advertising. For the quarter, ended Sept. 30, operating margin for services was 35% -- an improvement from the prior year's 31%.The improving financial and operational picture at Alphabet is reason enough to be bullish. And given how early the company is in its AI deployment, the long-term prospects only make the story even more compelling.Image Source: Getty Images3. AmazonLike Alphabet, Amazon has built a business that gives investors exposure to many different industries.Amazon is best known for its e-commerce platform, but the company is the undisputed leader in cloud computing and has quietly built a budding advertising business. The biggest takeaway from its third-quarter report was that, as of now, the cloud business effectively has a $100 billion revenue run-rate.But management says the overwhelming bulk of enterprise IT spending is still captured by on-premise products. This means that as cloud applications become even more crucial for enterprises of all sizes, Amazon is in position to benefit from this shift in IT budgets.And like Alphabet, Amazon also is a big investor in Anthropic. As part of the deal, Anthropic will train future generative-AI models on Amazon's homegrown semiconductor chips and will use Amazon as its primary cloud provider. I think investors are discounting the benefits of this partnership and the opportunity for lead generation that Anthropic represents.Amazon's advertising business is also exciting. The company is leveraging AI to hone its ability to run targeted ad campaigns. As the holiday season approaches, these investments could be a bellwether for the e-commerce operation.4. Meta PlatformsMeta is home to social media applications Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. For much of 2022 and early 2023, Meta Platforms was under a lot of scrutiny after the company's core advertising business took a back seat to management's interest in the metaverse.Meta mistakenly allocated too many resources to its metaverse ambitions and lost sight of its core moneymaker. As growth in the advertising business stalled and expenses ballooned, profitability took a hit. Meta resorted to multiple rounds of layoffs to get costs under control as it sought to get its advertising revenue back on track.The third-quarter earnings report underscored how much progress Meta has made. Advertising revenue had its highest growth rate all year, and free cash flow is at levels not seen since 2021.Macroeconomic conditions might make some investors question the near-term outlook.

That&#39;s fine. In fact, it&#39;s great. Investors employing a simpler &#34;less is more&#34; approach often end up outperforming their peers.</p><p>The key to success with such a strategy is just finding the right stocks to begin with. If you are just starting out as an investor but only have so much available to invest -- say $500 -- you want to start out with solid choices you know will do well so you can grow that initial investment. You also need to know these choices will be fine in the long run, and able to shrug off any short-term challenges.</p><p>With that as the backdrop, here&#39;s a rundown of five different stocks you can confidently invest $500 in right now and not worry about them too much for the next several years.</p><h2 id=\"id_3620851651\">1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PG\">Procter &amp; Gamble</a></h2><p>You&#39;ve heard of the company. And you&#39;re likely to also be a customer without even realizing it. Procter &amp; Gamble is parent to several popular brands of consumer goods, including Tide laundry detergent, Gillette razors, Luvs and Pampers diapers, Cascade dishwasher detergent, Bounty paper towels, and more.</p><p>Its products aren&#39;t just familiar, either. In market research outfit BrandSpark&#39;s most recent look at the market, Procter &amp; Gamble boasted a leading 23 of the country&#39;s most trusted brand names; Tide alone won in five different laundry categories.</p><p>This is no small matter. See, although brand recognition alone doesn&#39;t inherently guarantee profitability, market dominance goes a long way in ensuring a leading brand remains a leading brand. Not only does Procter &amp; Gamble enjoy all the advantages of scale, like relatively lower production and operating costs as well as sales leverage with retailers, but it also simply has more products to cross-sell. P&amp;G can also afford to be one of the world&#39;s biggest advertisers.</p><p>Connect the dots. It&#39;s unlikely Procter &amp; Gamble is going to be dethroned anytime soon, if ever.</p><h2 id=\"id_3269544970\">2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></h2><p>Here&#39;s another company that doesn&#39;t need much of an introduction. Apple, of course, makes the world&#39;s single most popular smartphone -- the iPhone. Yes, Samsung technically sells more total smartphones, but in a variety of models and price ranges. Apple also generates far more smartphone revenue than any of its rivals due to the iPhone&#39;s premium pricing.</p><p>Loyalty to the iOS operating system powering iPhones is sky-high, too, with market research firm Consumer Intelligence Research Partners reporting that 94% of iOS users (most of them being iPhone users) plan on sticking with the operating system when it&#39;s time to upgrade their devices. Consumer Intelligence Research Partners adds that between early last year and early this year, 15% of iPhone purchases made within the United States were made by former users of Samsung&#39;s Android smartphones. Both measures are far stronger than Android&#39;s appeal and loyalty.</p><p>Although the iPhone is a powerhouse product accounting for more than half of the company&#39;s revenue, it&#39;s not the only reason to step into Apple for the long haul. The popular device is increasingly a means to an end, generating additional revenue by facilitating the sale of apps, music, and video entertainment. These digital services now account for around one-fourth of Apple&#39;s top line and even more of its bottom line.</p><p>Apps and subscriptions only fuel consumer loyalty to Apple&#39;s iOS digital ecosystem, of course. People are not only already familiar with the operating system, but they&#39;ve already paid for many of the apps installed on previous versions of their smartphones.</p><h2 id=\"id_3507458951\">3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></h2><p>This is yet another company you&#39;re more than familiar with. Visa is the world&#39;s biggest credit card middleman (outside of China, anyway), handling the purchase of $14.8 trillion worth of goods and services in its recently ended fiscal year. That&#39;s more than 259 billion total transactions from a crowd wielding more than 4 billion Visa credit and debit cards.</p><p>Visa&#39;s sheer reach is only half the reason to own the stock, however. The other half is the way consumer spending is evolving. Cash is slowly but surely going away, displaced by cards. The U.S. Federal Reserve reports that back in 2012, cash was used to handle 40% of purchases made within the United States. Now, that number has been dialed back to only 18%. During this time, debit and credit card usage has grown from 44% of transactions to 60%.</p><p>Yet, there&#39;s room remaining for both of these trends to continue.</p><p>This shift, of course, reflects the growing convenience of cards and the growing inconvenience of paper and coins. It&#39;s now common within the United States to purchase things like groceries or even pay your wireless phone bill with a credit card, and more so every day.</p><p>Visa may never be a high-growth stock. As long as sellers and buyers want to connect with one another, though, Visa&#39;s service will be a necessary one.</p><h2 id=\"id_1739133160\">4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a></h2><p>You probably know the name as the developer of image-editing software Photoshop or the premier name in digital PDF (portable document file) solutions. And it still offers both.</p><p>However, Adobe is so much more than Photoshop and PDFs. The company offers a full-blown suite of digital tools aimed at the business market. Stock photography, generative AI, 3D modeling, animation, web traffic analytics, e-commerce tools, targeted marketing, and digital data collection (and more) are all in its wheelhouse now.</p><p>That&#39;s not the evolution that makes Adobe such a worry-free investment, though. You can confidently pour at least a portion of your idle cash into it at this time because of the way it now offers its software to customers. While you can still purchase it outright on a one-time basis, most users now opt for the subscription-based, cloud-accessed versions of its tools. Not only are these tools always up to date and accessible from anywhere, but this model is also often more cost-effective for the end-user. It&#39;s good for Adobe and its investors, too, as recurring revenue is also predictable revenue.</p><p>To this end, Adobe&#39;s annualized recurring revenue run rate now stands at $14.6 billion, while $15.7 billion worth of this business is already lined up and waiting to be booked. For perspective, Adobe has done about $18.9 billion worth of business over the course of the past four quarters.</p><h2 id=\"id_3283725545\">5. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KO\">Coca-Cola</a></h2><p>Last but not least, add Coca-Cola to your list of stocks you can confidently step into right now.</p><p>Like Adobe, Procter &amp; Gamble, Apple, and Visa, the big draw here is once again the habitual, recurring purchase of its products -- all of them. Yes, there&#39;s its market-leading namesake cola. The company isn&#39;t just carbonated beverages, though. This is also the name behind Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, Minute Maid juice, and others. It&#39;s always got a beverage product to sell someone.</p><p>The key selling feature of Coca-Cola stock, however, is its dividend. The current dividend yield is a healthy 3.2%, but more than that, it&#39;s a dividend that&#39;s been raised every single year for the past 61 years.</p><p>Don&#39;t look for this streak to be snapped anytime soon, either. See, the beverage giant has spent the past several years selling its bottling operations back to local bottlers so it can better focus on what it does best.

That's fine. In fact, it's great. Investors employing a simpler \"less is more\" approach often end up outperforming their peers.The key to success with such a strategy is just finding the right stocks to begin with. If you are just starting out as an investor but only have so much available to invest -- say $500 -- you want to start out with solid choices you know will do well so you can grow that initial investment. You also need to know these choices will be fine in the long run, and able to shrug off any short-term challenges.With that as the backdrop, here's a rundown of five different stocks you can confidently invest $500 in right now and not worry about them too much for the next several years.1. Procter & GambleYou've heard of the company. And you're likely to also be a customer without even realizing it. Procter & Gamble is parent to several popular brands of consumer goods, including Tide laundry detergent, Gillette razors, Luvs and Pampers diapers, Cascade dishwasher detergent, Bounty paper towels, and more.Its products aren't just familiar, either. In market research outfit BrandSpark's most recent look at the market, Procter & Gamble boasted a leading 23 of the country's most trusted brand names; Tide alone won in five different laundry categories.This is no small matter. See, although brand recognition alone doesn't inherently guarantee profitability, market dominance goes a long way in ensuring a leading brand remains a leading brand. Not only does Procter & Gamble enjoy all the advantages of scale, like relatively lower production and operating costs as well as sales leverage with retailers, but it also simply has more products to cross-sell. P&G can also afford to be one of the world's biggest advertisers.Connect the dots. It's unlikely Procter & Gamble is going to be dethroned anytime soon, if ever.2. AppleHere's another company that doesn't need much of an introduction. Apple, of course, makes the world's single most popular smartphone -- the iPhone. Yes, Samsung technically sells more total smartphones, but in a variety of models and price ranges. Apple also generates far more smartphone revenue than any of its rivals due to the iPhone's premium pricing.Loyalty to the iOS operating system powering iPhones is sky-high, too, with market research firm Consumer Intelligence Research Partners reporting that 94% of iOS users (most of them being iPhone users) plan on sticking with the operating system when it's time to upgrade their devices. Consumer Intelligence Research Partners adds that between early last year and early this year, 15% of iPhone purchases made within the United States were made by former users of Samsung's Android smartphones. Both measures are far stronger than Android's appeal and loyalty.Although the iPhone is a powerhouse product accounting for more than half of the company's revenue, it's not the only reason to step into Apple for the long haul. The popular device is increasingly a means to an end, generating additional revenue by facilitating the sale of apps, music, and video entertainment. These digital services now account for around one-fourth of Apple's top line and even more of its bottom line.Apps and subscriptions only fuel consumer loyalty to Apple's iOS digital ecosystem, of course. People are not only already familiar with the operating system, but they've already paid for many of the apps installed on previous versions of their smartphones.3. VisaThis is yet another company you're more than familiar with. Visa is the world's biggest credit card middleman (outside of China, anyway), handling the purchase of $14.8 trillion worth of goods and services in its recently ended fiscal year. That's more than 259 billion total transactions from a crowd wielding more than 4 billion Visa credit and debit cards.Visa's sheer reach is only half the reason to own the stock, however. The other half is the way consumer spending is evolving. Cash is slowly but surely going away, displaced by cards. The U.S. Federal Reserve reports that back in 2012, cash was used to handle 40% of purchases made within the United States. Now, that number has been dialed back to only 18%. During this time, debit and credit card usage has grown from 44% of transactions to 60%.Yet, there's room remaining for both of these trends to continue.This shift, of course, reflects the growing convenience of cards and the growing inconvenience of paper and coins. It's now common within the United States to purchase things like groceries or even pay your wireless phone bill with a credit card, and more so every day.Visa may never be a high-growth stock. As long as sellers and buyers want to connect with one another, though, Visa's service will be a necessary one.4. AdobeYou probably know the name as the developer of image-editing software Photoshop or the premier name in digital PDF (portable document file) solutions. And it still offers both.However, Adobe is so much more than Photoshop and PDFs. The company offers a full-blown suite of digital tools aimed at the business market. Stock photography, generative AI, 3D modeling, animation, web traffic analytics, e-commerce tools, targeted marketing, and digital data collection (and more) are all in its wheelhouse now.That's not the evolution that makes Adobe such a worry-free investment, though. You can confidently pour at least a portion of your idle cash into it at this time because of the way it now offers its software to customers. While you can still purchase it outright on a one-time basis, most users now opt for the subscription-based, cloud-accessed versions of its tools. Not only are these tools always up to date and accessible from anywhere, but this model is also often more cost-effective for the end-user. It's good for Adobe and its investors, too, as recurring revenue is also predictable revenue.To this end, Adobe's annualized recurring revenue run rate now stands at $14.6 billion, while $15.7 billion worth of this business is already lined up and waiting to be booked. For perspective, Adobe has done about $18.9 billion worth of business over the course of the past four quarters.5. Coca-ColaLast but not least, add Coca-Cola to your list of stocks you can confidently step into right now.Like Adobe, Procter & Gamble, Apple, and Visa, the big draw here is once again the habitual, recurring purchase of its products -- all of them. Yes, there's its market-leading namesake cola. The company isn't just carbonated beverages, though. This is also the name behind Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, Minute Maid juice, and others. It's always got a beverage product to sell someone.The key selling feature of Coca-Cola stock, however, is its dividend. The current dividend yield is a healthy 3.2%, but more than that, it's a dividend that's been raised every single year for the past 61 years.Don't look for this streak to be snapped anytime soon, either. See, the beverage giant has spent the past several years selling its bottling operations back to local bottlers so it can better focus on what it does best. That's marketing and licensing its flavors and brand names. And it's very, very good at it; there's a reason brand names and their corresponding brand logos are among the most recognized in the world.While this strategic shift means less net revenue, since profit margins on royalties are much higher than margins on bottling, The Coca-Cola Company is actually set to make more net income now than it was earning then.KO Revenue (Quarterly) data by YCharts.As the chart above also illustrates, Coca-Cola is making far more than enough money to continue funding its dividend. It's well-shielded should temporary turbulence strike.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":382,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":234432718053464,"gmtCreate":1698278652353,"gmtModify":1698278657254,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Down down down&nbsp;","listText":"Down down down&nbsp;","text":"Down down down","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d7249260cbb384e34f12197850917393","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/234432718053464","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":195272722743536,"gmtCreate":1688699813253,"gmtModify":1688699817228,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Steady lah&nbsp;","listText":"Steady lah&nbsp;","text":"Steady lah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/195272722743536","repostId":"1129140362","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1129140362","pubTimestamp":1688699520,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129140362?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-07-07 11:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Should You Buy The Dip In Disney Stock?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129140362","media":"Barchart","summary":"Among the most important strategic moves under Iger in the past 8 months has been to shift the focus from streaming subscriber growth to increasing profits.

The company however lost 4 million streaming subscribers in the most recent quarter.

The Nasdaq Composite <u>($NASX)</u> had its best first-half performance in four decades while the S&amp;P 500 <u>($SPX)</u> rose more than 15% to have the best start to the year since 2019. However, Disney <u>(DIS)</u> was barely in the green, with gains of about 3%. </p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney Has Pivoted To Streaming </h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney is among the most iconic global brands and is the proverbial “cradle to grave” business, as it has something to offer to every age group. The company has historically been known for its parks and animated movies. And in 2019 it also pivoted to streaming.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The pivot was quite successful in terms of numbers, and in the first 16 months after launch Disney+ surpassed 100 million users.  After accounting for Hulu and ESPN+, Disney now has more streaming subscribers than streaming giant Netflix <u>(NFLX)</u>.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">While the pivot might seem hugely successful considering the massive growth in subscribers, Disney’s streaming business is unprofitable and its losses peaked at $1.47 billion in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2022 that ended in September 2022, which reflects the toll that the <u>streaming war has taken on industry players</u>.</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney Reappointed Bob Iger As CEO</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">That fiscal fourth quarter earnings call in 2022 turned out to be the last one for Disney’s then-CEO Bob Chapek who was removed from his position in November, just days later.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney reappointed Chapek’s predecessor Bob Iger as the CEO. Notably, it was Iger under whose watch Disney pivoted to streaming and the business gained traction under Chapek. The growth in Disney’s streaming business was also aided by the COVID-19 lockdowns as streaming subscribers grew exponentially in 2020.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Soon after he took over, Iger embarked on his mission to transform Disney. He reversed some of Chapek’s decisions and shifted the focus back to creativity.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Chapek also ended Disney’s work-from-home policy and stressed that working in a team environment works best for a creative company like Disney. He also took harsh measures and announced 7,000 layoffs in a bid to cut costs. Among others, the layoffs impacted the company&#39;s metaverse segment.</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Can Bob Iger Turnaround Disney?</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Among the most important strategic moves under Iger in the past 8 months has been to shift the focus from streaming subscriber growth to increasing profits. The company’s streaming losses narrowed to $659 million in the March quarter and are now less than half of their last year&#39;s peak. The company however lost 4 million streaming subscribers in the most recent quarter. Subscriber growth is no longer the top focus for Disney and it also withdrew its fiscal year 2024 subscriber guidance.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Iger also reorganized the business into three units: Disney Entertainment, ESPN, and Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products. In contrast, Chapek put streaming at the heart of Disney’s business and had restructured the business to reflect the same.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">While Disney stock rose initially when Iger took over, it has since sagged – as is visible in its dismal price action in 2023 which has now pushed it to levels even below when Iger took over last year.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0c3d2019f503bade12d7aba14b218480\" tg-width=\"999\" tg-height=\"610\"/></p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney Is Working To Improve The Experience At Its Theme Parks</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney is taking several measures to improve its operating as well as financial performance. It has taken actions to improve the customer experience at its Parks in the US and has allowed annual pass holders to visit the parks on certain days without prior reservations.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">It is also expanding its international parks and is adding a line inspired by the popular Frozen franchise in Paris. It is similarly adding a Frozen-inspired expansion in Hong Kong which is expected to be operational by the end of this year. In Shanghai Disney Resort also, the Zootopia-inspired expansion is expected to go live later this year.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Parks segment is a key driver of Disney’s profitability and in the fiscal second quarter of 2023, it generated an operating profit of $2.16 billion on revenues of $7.78 billion while the Media and Entertainment Distribution segment posted an operating profit of $1.12 billion on revenues of $14.04 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8962a7d080ba7b79f7ee4faa8fe1d105\" tg-width=\"809\" tg-height=\"688\"/></p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Why Disney Stock Looks Like A Good Buy Now</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Meanwhile, Disney’s streaming losses have narrowed and the company expects the business to turn profitable in the next fiscal year. It has hiked Disney+ subscription prices in the US and has simultaneously launched an ad-supported tier.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The company is also looking to launch the ad-supported tier in Europe later this year. If Netflix’s experience is any indication, the ad-supported tier not only helps increase the subscriber count but also improves the overall average revenue per user (ARPU).</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Iger believes that the company is on track to meet or exceed its target of cutting $5.5 billion in costs. The strategic actions to boost Disney’s earnings have analysts expecting the company&#39;s profits to rise 34.3% in the next fiscal year.</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">DIS Stock Forecast Looks Bullish</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney has a consensus rating of “moderate buy” based on 22 analysts’ ratings. Its mean price target is $120.83, while the street-high target price of $150 implies an upside of almost 70% over current prices.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Not all analysts are bullish on Disney’s forecast though. Last week KeyBanc analyst Brandon Nispel downgraded the stock from an “overweight” to “equal weight” while emphasizing that he sees more negatives than positives for the stock. Nispel added, &#34;We prefer to step aside, acknowledging meaningful uncertainty, and wait for further catalysts, as buying the dip has been a losing trade.”</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">There are also concerns over a possible US recession taking a toll on Disney’s earnings in the coming quarters.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">However, I believe most of the negatives look priced in Disney stock as its next-12-month PE multiple of 20.7x is below the historical averages. As Disney’s streaming business moves towards sustainable profitability and the company’s cost-cutting efforts continue to take effect, the stock should rebound.

The Nasdaq Composite ($NASX) had its best first-half performance in four decades while the S&P 500 ($SPX) rose more than 15% to have the best start to the year since 2019. However, Disney (DIS) was barely in the green, with gains of about 3%. Disney Has Pivoted To Streaming Disney is among the most iconic global brands and is the proverbial “cradle to grave” business, as it has something to offer to every age group. The company has historically been known for its parks and animated movies. And in 2019 it also pivoted to streaming.The pivot was quite successful in terms of numbers, and in the first 16 months after launch Disney+ surpassed 100 million users.  After accounting for Hulu and ESPN+, Disney now has more streaming subscribers than streaming giant Netflix (NFLX).While the pivot might seem hugely successful considering the massive growth in subscribers, Disney’s streaming business is unprofitable and its losses peaked at $1.47 billion in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2022 that ended in September 2022, which reflects the toll that the streaming war has taken on industry players.Disney Reappointed Bob Iger As CEOThat fiscal fourth quarter earnings call in 2022 turned out to be the last one for Disney’s then-CEO Bob Chapek who was removed from his position in November, just days later.Disney reappointed Chapek’s predecessor Bob Iger as the CEO. Notably, it was Iger under whose watch Disney pivoted to streaming and the business gained traction under Chapek. The growth in Disney’s streaming business was also aided by the COVID-19 lockdowns as streaming subscribers grew exponentially in 2020.Soon after he took over, Iger embarked on his mission to transform Disney. He reversed some of Chapek’s decisions and shifted the focus back to creativity.Chapek also ended Disney’s work-from-home policy and stressed that working in a team environment works best for a creative company like Disney. He also took harsh measures and announced 7,000 layoffs in a bid to cut costs. Among others, the layoffs impacted the company's metaverse segment.Can Bob Iger Turnaround Disney?Among the most important strategic moves under Iger in the past 8 months has been to shift the focus from streaming subscriber growth to increasing profits. The company’s streaming losses narrowed to $659 million in the March quarter and are now less than half of their last year's peak. The company however lost 4 million streaming subscribers in the most recent quarter. Subscriber growth is no longer the top focus for Disney and it also withdrew its fiscal year 2024 subscriber guidance.Iger also reorganized the business into three units: Disney Entertainment, ESPN, and Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products. In contrast, Chapek put streaming at the heart of Disney’s business and had restructured the business to reflect the same.While Disney stock rose initially when Iger took over, it has since sagged – as is visible in its dismal price action in 2023 which has now pushed it to levels even below when Iger took over last year.Disney Is Working To Improve The Experience At Its Theme ParksDisney is taking several measures to improve its operating as well as financial performance. It has taken actions to improve the customer experience at its Parks in the US and has allowed annual pass holders to visit the parks on certain days without prior reservations.It is also expanding its international parks and is adding a line inspired by the popular Frozen franchise in Paris. It is similarly adding a Frozen-inspired expansion in Hong Kong which is expected to be operational by the end of this year. In Shanghai Disney Resort also, the Zootopia-inspired expansion is expected to go live later this year.The Parks segment is a key driver of Disney’s profitability and in the fiscal second quarter of 2023, it generated an operating profit of $2.16 billion on revenues of $7.78 billion while the Media and Entertainment Distribution segment posted an operating profit of $1.12 billion on revenues of $14.04 billion.Why Disney Stock Looks Like A Good Buy NowMeanwhile, Disney’s streaming losses have narrowed and the company expects the business to turn profitable in the next fiscal year. It has hiked Disney+ subscription prices in the US and has simultaneously launched an ad-supported tier.The company is also looking to launch the ad-supported tier in Europe later this year. If Netflix’s experience is any indication, the ad-supported tier not only helps increase the subscriber count but also improves the overall average revenue per user (ARPU).Iger believes that the company is on track to meet or exceed its target of cutting $5.5 billion in costs. The strategic actions to boost Disney’s earnings have analysts expecting the company's profits to rise 34.3% in the next fiscal year.DIS Stock Forecast Looks BullishDisney has a consensus rating of “moderate buy” based on 22 analysts’ ratings. Its mean price target is $120.83, while the street-high target price of $150 implies an upside of almost 70% over current prices.Not all analysts are bullish on Disney’s forecast though. Last week KeyBanc analyst Brandon Nispel downgraded the stock from an “overweight” to “equal weight” while emphasizing that he sees more negatives than positives for the stock. Nispel added, \"We prefer to step aside, acknowledging meaningful uncertainty, and wait for further catalysts, as buying the dip has been a losing trade.”There are also concerns over a possible US recession taking a toll on Disney’s earnings in the coming quarters.However, I believe most of the negatives look priced in Disney stock as its next-12-month PE multiple of 20.7x is below the historical averages. As Disney’s streaming business moves towards sustainable profitability and the company’s cost-cutting efforts continue to take effect, the stock should rebound. Therefore, it's my opinion that the entertainment giant's stock is a good “buy the dip” candidate at current prices.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184676273045608,"gmtCreate":1686111613041,"gmtModify":1686111616600,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Are u buying?","listText":"Are u buying?","text":"Are u buying?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184676273045608","repostId":"2341381639","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2341381639","pubTimestamp":1686103545,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2341381639?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-06-07 10:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: Why Does Smart Money Buy/Hold At ~$100?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2341381639","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"ZargonDesign/E+ via Getty Images Investment thesis Recently, several high-profile investors have been buying shares of Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA).

As shown in the chart below, these investors include Charles Munger, the vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.A), and also “big short” Michael Burry, the hedge fund manager who famously predicted the housing market crash. Munger&#39;s portfolio currently has the most concentrated bet on BABA, representing more than 19% of his overall portfolio size. Burry&#39;s Scion Asset Management has also been buying shares in Alibaba. As seen, the hedge fund doubled down on its stake in the past quarters.</p><p>In the most recent quarter (Q1 of 2023), the hedge fund increased its BABA stake by 100%. In that quarter, the Alibaba stock price varied in a range of $81 to $120, with an average closing price of ~$100.

More specifically, I believe they see an opportunity to purchase a great company that is experiencing temporary difficulties. There is no doubt that Alibaba has been experiencing strong headwinds recently on multiple fronts. And I assume all BABA investors are familiar with these issues, which include the competitive landscape.</p><p>However, I see these issues as only temporary, and I assume that is what these super-investors see also. I am familiar with the style of several of the super-investors listed above and follow their writings closely (e.g., Munger, Burry, and also Guy Spier). They are all experienced investors with a long track record of success. Munger and Burry have both said that they believe in Alibaba&#39;s long-term prospects.</p><p>At the same time, BABA’s stock price and valuation remain extremely compressed. Furthermore, BABA recently announced plans to restructure the business into six distinct operating groups.

And I view the gap as a clear sign of undervaluation.</p><p>Besides the price gap, the stock valuation compressed can also be seen via other metrics. And the charts below show two more such metrics. The first chart shows that the stock is currently trading at a price-to-cash flow ratio (P/CFO ratio) of only 7.64x, which is extremely low either by horizontal or vertical comparison. As seen, its median P/CFO ratio over the past 5 years is 18.8x and the average is 17.6x.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6e4190c1859e6b334a37ec8ff5835717\" title=\"Source: Seeking Alpha data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"376\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>Similarly, the second chart shows that the stock is trading at a very compressed valuation too when its leverages are considered. For example, its enterprise value (EV) to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) ratio currently stands at 7.07x only (on a forward basis). Actually, even at the ~$100 holding prices from the super investors, its EV/EBITDA multiple is still only 8.17x and the P/CFO is only 12.2x.</p><p>For a business that has no solvency issues, I view such multiples as reserved only for companies that are terminally stagnating. Yet, BABA is the opposite of a terminal stagnation stock in my mind. And consensus estimates are forecasting healthy growth in the next few years (5.6% CAGR as seen) too.</p><p>I will go a step further and argue that such consensus estimates are on the conservative side. I am optimistic that BABA can achieve higher growth rates in the years ahead both because of macroscopic and company-specific catalysts. Macroscopically, my opinion is that the Chinese domestic economy has moved past lingering COVID-19 headwinds and I expect a much-improved macroeconomic landscape. Specific to BABA, I expect the ongoing restructuring efforts to spur more creativity, efficiency, and also profitability in the near future.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a954e13429e60ff652826daa7d5ca277\" title=\"Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\"/><span>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/010637f0a413d5e62321f3415bda593b\" title=\"Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"258\"/><span>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>Other risks and final thoughts</h2><p>There are a few other upside risks to consider besides those mentioned above. And the top and most immediate one in my mind is the shareholder value unlocked due to its anticipated reconstruction efforts. The following charts show my sum-of-the-parts (“SOTP”) analysis of the current worth of the business (more details are provided in an earlier article). The gist is that two of the parts, its current cash position and domestic e-commerce, are already worth its current market price according to my results. When all six parts that it plans to separate out (and potentially IPO) are considered, I am seeing a 30% upside potential for Alibaba stock even under conservative assumptions.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d1ba82e60e4b4cbac883e481585a637\" title=\"Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\"/><span>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>There are also downside risks to consider. Geopolitical risks are a major risk. BABA is also facing competition from other Chinese and also global e-commerce companies, such as JD.com (JD), PDD Holdings Inc. (PDD), and Amazon (AMZN). All these competitors are investing heavily in new technologies and marketing initiatives, and all of them directly compete with BABA and could pressure its margins.</p><p>Despite these challenges, Alibaba Group Holding Limited remains one of the largest and most successful e-commerce companies in the world. And the key consideration for my bullish thesis is that the current headwinds are temporary. I interpret the recent transactions from some of the most successful super-investors as a move to buy a great company that is experiencing temporary difficulties. And I see the price gap between their buying/holding prices and the market price of Alibaba Holdings as an indicator of the company’s undervaluation.</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>Alibaba: Why Does Smart Money Buy/Hold At ~$100?</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\">\nAlibaba: Why Does Smart Money Buy/Hold At ~$100?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-06-07 10:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4609851-alibaba-why-does-smart-money-buy-hold-at-100><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummarySeveral high-profile investors (such as Charles Munger and Michael Burry) have been buying/adding to their Alibaba Group Holding Limited position lately.Alibaba is currently ranked the top 29th...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4609851-alibaba-why-does-smart-money-buy-hold-at-100\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BABA":"阿里巴巴","09988":"阿里巴巴-W"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4609851-alibaba-why-does-smart-money-buy-hold-at-100","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2341381639","content_text":"SummarySeveral high-profile investors (such as Charles Munger and Michael Burry) have been buying/adding to their Alibaba Group Holding Limited position lately.Alibaba is currently ranked the top 29th stock most held by super-investors, and their average holding price is ~$100.I interpret these transactions as a move to buy a great company that is experiencing temporary trouble.And the sizable gap between their holding prices and the market price signals a deep undervaluation.Investment thesisRecently, several high-profile investors have been buying shares of Alibaba Group Holding Limited.

And I view the gap as a clear sign of undervaluation.Besides the price gap, the stock valuation compressed can also be seen via other metrics. And the charts below show two more such metrics. The first chart shows that the stock is currently trading at a price-to-cash flow ratio (P/CFO ratio) of only 7.64x, which is extremely low either by horizontal or vertical comparison. As seen, its median P/CFO ratio over the past 5 years is 18.8x and the average is 17.6x.Source: Seeking Alpha dataSimilarly, the second chart shows that the stock is trading at a very compressed valuation too when its leverages are considered. For example, its enterprise value (EV) to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) ratio currently stands at 7.07x only (on a forward basis). Actually, even at the ~$100 holding prices from the super investors, its EV/EBITDA multiple is still only 8.17x and the P/CFO is only 12.2x.For a business that has no solvency issues, I view such multiples as reserved only for companies that are terminally stagnating. Yet, BABA is the opposite of a terminal stagnation stock in my mind. And consensus estimates are forecasting healthy growth in the next few years (5.6% CAGR as seen) too.I will go a step further and argue that such consensus estimates are on the conservative side. I am optimistic that BABA can achieve higher growth rates in the years ahead both because of macroscopic and company-specific catalysts. Macroscopically, my opinion is that the Chinese domestic economy has moved past lingering COVID-19 headwinds and I expect a much-improved macroeconomic landscape. Specific to BABA, I expect the ongoing restructuring efforts to spur more creativity, efficiency, and also profitability in the near future.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataSource: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataOther risks and final thoughtsThere are a few other upside risks to consider besides those mentioned above. And the top and most immediate one in my mind is the shareholder value unlocked due to its anticipated reconstruction efforts. The following charts show my sum-of-the-parts (“SOTP”) analysis of the current worth of the business (more details are provided in an earlier article). The gist is that two of the parts, its current cash position and domestic e-commerce, are already worth its current market price according to my results. When all six parts that it plans to separate out (and potentially IPO) are considered, I am seeing a 30% upside potential for Alibaba stock even under conservative assumptions.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataThere are also downside risks to consider. Geopolitical risks are a major risk. BABA is also facing competition from other Chinese and also global e-commerce companies, such as JD.com (JD), PDD Holdings Inc. (PDD), and Amazon (AMZN). All these competitors are investing heavily in new technologies and marketing initiatives, and all of them directly compete with BABA and could pressure its margins.Despite these challenges, Alibaba Group Holding Limited remains one of the largest and most successful e-commerce companies in the world. And the key consideration for my bullish thesis is that the current headwinds are temporary. I interpret the recent transactions from some of the most successful super-investors as a move to buy a great company that is experiencing temporary difficulties. And I see the price gap between their buying/holding prices and the market price of Alibaba Holdings as an indicator of the company’s undervaluation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":207,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":321197346213912,"gmtCreate":1719448223430,"gmtModify":1719448228471,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Take a look at the trade I did.&nbsp;","listText":"Take a look at the trade I did.&nbsp;","text":"Take a look at the trade I did.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":17,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":7,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321197346213912","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1396,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":318717345341520,"gmtCreate":1718825419326,"gmtModify":1718856080057,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/META\">$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> Good good very good to Sell on the high. &nbsp;Shall be looking for more opportunities.&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/META\">$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> Good good very good to Sell on the high. &nbsp;Shall be looking for more opportunities.&nbsp;","text":"$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ Good good very good to Sell on the high.

Upstart</h2><p><b>Upstart</b> is dealing with a perfect storm in terms of the confluence of challenges it is up against in the current market.

It uses its proprietary model, which factors in over 1,000 data points (and not just the traditional FICO score), to determine whether to approve various types of consumer loans.

Moreover, the underlying technology behind Upstart&#39;s platform -- which remains its greatest competitive advantage -- is continuing to prove its efficacy, with management noting that its model accuracy improved more in the seven months leading up to the end of 2022 than in the entire 30 months before that.</p><p>Even now, with institutions scaling back loan originations, more lending partners are continuing to jump on the Upstart bandwagon, its cohort of bank and credit union partners skyrocketing 120% in the 12-month period alone.

Intuitive Surgical</h2><p><b>Intuitive Surgical</b> has dominated the surgical robotics industry for over two decades now, ever since the approval of its flagship system, the da Vinci surgical suite.

Among them, JPMorgan Chase stands alone.The bank has opened b","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Thousands of banks call the U.S. home. Among them, JPMorgan Chase stands alone.</p><p>The bank has opened branches in 25 new states, plus Washington, D.C., since 2018. Its nearly 4,800 locations are in every state in the Lower 48, an achievement it alone has unlocked. It added another 93 earlier this month when it bought First Republic Bank in a government-backed fire sale.</p><p>It now has more than 13% of the nation&#39;s deposits and 21% of all credit-card spending, a bigger share in each than any other bank. Its investment bankers bring in more revenue than all of their Wall Street rivals, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.</p><p>America&#39;s biggest bank is also a travel agency for big spenders and a media company serving up restaurant recommendations. Its Morgan Health unit is trying to transform employer-sponsored healthcare. The Institute, its D.C. think tank, advises government decision makers using the bank&#39;s reams of customer spending, saving and borrowing data.</p><p>When the banking system faced a crisis of confidence this spring, JPMorgan&#39;s heft was a ballast. Customers sent it $50 billion in new deposits. Employees at stricken banks sent résumés. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen called CEO Jamie Dimon for help.</p><p>Yet JPMorgan&#39;s show of strength, for many, exposed a weakness in the U.S. financial system. The bank and its largest rivals have become so big, their reach so extensive, that the government would almost surely step in to prevent their failure. That implicit guarantee encourages people and businesses to move their money to them in times of stress creating a feedback loop that makes big banks bigger at the expense of their smaller peers.</p><p>Smaller banks support industries and regions that megabanks aren&#39;t especially good at serving, said Gene Ludwig, the former head of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, one of the banking system&#39;s top regulators.</p><p>&#34;We have a premier bank that&#39;s shown itself to be well run,&#34; said Ludwig, who now heads a financial-services advisory firm. &#34;But we need a diverse banking system.&#34;</p><p>JPMorgan isn&#39;t done getting bigger. At its annual investor day Monday, Dimon and his lieutenants will be quick to play down the bank&#39;s dominance, detailing plans to grow in the markets and products where it isn&#39;t already No. 1. Chief among them is managing its customers&#39; wealth, one of First Republic&#39;s premier offerings.</p><p>&#34;The message from investor day is: &#39;We are JPMorgan, hear us roar,&#39;&#34; said Mike Mayo, a bank analyst at Wells Fargo.</p><p>In March, the deposit run that claimed Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in a matter of days was spreading throughout America&#39;s regional banks. First Republic lost $100 billion in deposits in a matter of days.</p><p>Dimon, at Yellen&#39;s prodding, rallied his fellow big-bank CEOs to deposit $30 billion into First Republic to shore up confidence in the troubled lender.</p><p>Behind the scenes, JPMorgan executives began studying the possibility of buying First Republic should rescue efforts fail. The San Francisco-based bank had a slew of rich customers and a ready-made wealth-management business, something JPMorgan was painstakingly building on its own.</p><p>First Republic&#39;s loyal following among the West Coast elite would give JPMorgan&#39;s bankers access to another group it long coveted: tech entrepreneurs with lots of money to manage and companies to someday take public.</p><p>Those customers could become a valuable source of business for its investment bank, which tends to balance out the consumer operation in a downturn. JPMorgan bankers have outearned all their rivals advising on stock and debt sales and mergers every year for the last decade, according to Dealogic.</p><p>Dimon and his deputies had been in this position before. JPMorgan&#39;s 2008 purchase of the failed Washington Mutual helped kick off the bank&#39;s nationwide expansion.</p><p>In the years after the financial crisis, JPMorgan focused on growing its relationship with the nation&#39;s wealthy. It built its credit-card operations into a giant, launching its Ultimate Rewards and Sapphire brands. The goal was to forge relationships that, with each new credit card, mortgage and brokerage account, become harder to break.</p><p>Courting America&#39;s mass affluent had become something of an obsession at JPMorgan. Executives hunted for deals that would give them an in with the upwardly mobile. Their efforts didn&#39;t always pan out. In 2021, JPMorgan paid $175 million for Frank, a little-known startup that helped would-be college students apply for financial aid. A year later, it sued the founder, Charlie Javice, accusing her of fabricating most of its users. Javice was indicted on fraud charges and has denied wrongdoing. &#34;A huge mistake&#34; is how Dimon has described the saga.</p><p>Dimon was determined to get it right with First Republic. Hundreds of JPMorgan employees studied First Republic&#39;s balance sheet. They zoomed in on maps of First Republic&#39;s branch network and vetted the real-estate value, neighboring shops and foot traffic, putting to use research tactics they used when JPMorgan was on its branch-building march across the country.</p><p>Top executives divided up first-day assignments should a deal come together. Marianne Lake and Jennifer Piepszak, the co-heads of JPMorgan&#39;s consumer bank, would make the trip to First Republic&#39;s San Francisco headquarters and manage the integration. It was a high-stakes assignment for the two women, who sit atop the list of candidates to eventually succeed Dimon as CEO.</p><p>On the last Friday in April, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. decided First Republic was out of time. The JPMorgan machine kicked into high gear.</p><p>A team of nearly 1,000 pored over First Republic&#39;s financial information. On Saturday, Dimon and his top lieutenant, Daniel Pinto, chaired an all-day gathering of top executives that included a series of presentations about what First Republic could do for the bank&#39;s various businesses.</p><p>&#34;It felt like a finely tuned orchestra,&#34; Piepszak said in an interview. &#34;We knew what we knew and what we didn&#39;t know.&#34;</p><p>First Republic&#39;s wealth-management arm was of particular interest.</p><p>In 2019, JPMorgan announced it was launching a new business to cater to wealthy people who had fallen between the cracks of its retail branches and private bank for the ultrarich. The idea was to capture some of the $4 trillion in assets that JPMorgan depositors were keeping at other wealth managers like Morgan Stanley and Bank of America.</p><p>Four years later, JPMorgan still lagged well behind its rivals. It has a goal to get to $1 trillion in assets under management. First Republic would put it within spitting distance.</p><p>PNC Financial, Citizens Financial and Fifth Third Bank also made a run at First Republic in the FDIC-led auction. But the deal was JPMorgan&#39;s to lose. With $3.7 trillion in assets, it is more than triple the size of those three combined.</p><p>The deal was announced before the sun rose on Monday, May 1.

Among them, JPMorgan Chase stands alone.</p><p>The bank has opened branches in 25 new states, plus Washington, D.C., since 2018. Its nearly 4,800 locations are in every state in the Lower 48, an achievement it alone has unlocked. It added another 93 earlier this month when it bought First Republic Bank in a government-backed fire sale.</p><p>It now has more than 13% of the nation&#39;s deposits and 21% of all credit-card spending, a bigger share in each than any other bank. Its investment bankers bring in more revenue than all of their Wall Street rivals, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.</p><p>America&#39;s biggest bank is also a travel agency for big spenders and a media company serving up restaurant recommendations. Its Morgan Health unit is trying to transform employer-sponsored healthcare. The Institute, its D.C. think tank, advises government decision makers using the bank&#39;s reams of customer spending, saving and borrowing data.</p><p>When the banking system faced a crisis of confidence this spring, JPMorgan&#39;s heft was a ballast. Customers sent it $50 billion in new deposits. Employees at stricken banks sent résumés. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen called CEO Jamie Dimon for help.</p><p>Yet JPMorgan&#39;s show of strength, for many, exposed a weakness in the U.S. financial system. The bank and its largest rivals have become so big, their reach so extensive, that the government would almost surely step in to prevent their failure. That implicit guarantee encourages people and businesses to move their money to them in times of stress creating a feedback loop that makes big banks bigger at the expense of their smaller peers.</p><p>Smaller banks support industries and regions that megabanks aren&#39;t especially good at serving, said Gene Ludwig, the former head of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, one of the banking system&#39;s top regulators.</p><p>&#34;We have a premier bank that&#39;s shown itself to be well run,&#34; said Ludwig, who now heads a financial-services advisory firm. &#34;But we need a diverse banking system.&#34;</p><p>JPMorgan isn&#39;t done getting bigger. At its annual investor day Monday, Dimon and his lieutenants will be quick to play down the bank&#39;s dominance, detailing plans to grow in the markets and products where it isn&#39;t already No. 1. Chief among them is managing its customers&#39; wealth, one of First Republic&#39;s premier offerings.</p><p>&#34;The message from investor day is: &#39;We are JPMorgan, hear us roar,&#39;&#34; said Mike Mayo, a bank analyst at Wells Fargo.</p><p>In March, the deposit run that claimed Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in a matter of days was spreading throughout America&#39;s regional banks. First Republic lost $100 billion in deposits in a matter of days.</p><p>Dimon, at Yellen&#39;s prodding, rallied his fellow big-bank CEOs to deposit $30 billion into First Republic to shore up confidence in the troubled lender.</p><p>Behind the scenes, JPMorgan executives began studying the possibility of buying First Republic should rescue efforts fail. The San Francisco-based bank had a slew of rich customers and a ready-made wealth-management business, something JPMorgan was painstakingly building on its own.</p><p>First Republic&#39;s loyal following among the West Coast elite would give JPMorgan&#39;s bankers access to another group it long coveted: tech entrepreneurs with lots of money to manage and companies to someday take public.</p><p>Those customers could become a valuable source of business for its investment bank, which tends to balance out the consumer operation in a downturn. JPMorgan bankers have outearned all their rivals advising on stock and debt sales and mergers every year for the last decade, according to Dealogic.</p><p>Dimon and his deputies had been in this position before. JPMorgan&#39;s 2008 purchase of the failed Washington Mutual helped kick off the bank&#39;s nationwide expansion.</p><p>In the years after the financial crisis, JPMorgan focused on growing its relationship with the nation&#39;s wealthy. It built its credit-card operations into a giant, launching its Ultimate Rewards and Sapphire brands. The goal was to forge relationships that, with each new credit card, mortgage and brokerage account, become harder to break.</p><p>Courting America&#39;s mass affluent had become something of an obsession at JPMorgan. Executives hunted for deals that would give them an in with the upwardly mobile. Their efforts didn&#39;t always pan out. In 2021, JPMorgan paid $175 million for Frank, a little-known startup that helped would-be college students apply for financial aid. A year later, it sued the founder, Charlie Javice, accusing her of fabricating most of its users. Javice was indicted on fraud charges and has denied wrongdoing. &#34;A huge mistake&#34; is how Dimon has described the saga.</p><p>Dimon was determined to get it right with First Republic. Hundreds of JPMorgan employees studied First Republic&#39;s balance sheet. They zoomed in on maps of First Republic&#39;s branch network and vetted the real-estate value, neighboring shops and foot traffic, putting to use research tactics they used when JPMorgan was on its branch-building march across the country.</p><p>Top executives divided up first-day assignments should a deal come together. Marianne Lake and Jennifer Piepszak, the co-heads of JPMorgan&#39;s consumer bank, would make the trip to First Republic&#39;s San Francisco headquarters and manage the integration. It was a high-stakes assignment for the two women, who sit atop the list of candidates to eventually succeed Dimon as CEO.</p><p>On the last Friday in April, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. decided First Republic was out of time. The JPMorgan machine kicked into high gear.</p><p>A team of nearly 1,000 pored over First Republic&#39;s financial information. On Saturday, Dimon and his top lieutenant, Daniel Pinto, chaired an all-day gathering of top executives that included a series of presentations about what First Republic could do for the bank&#39;s various businesses.</p><p>&#34;It felt like a finely tuned orchestra,&#34; Piepszak said in an interview. &#34;We knew what we knew and what we didn&#39;t know.&#34;</p><p>First Republic&#39;s wealth-management arm was of particular interest.</p><p>In 2019, JPMorgan announced it was launching a new business to cater to wealthy people who had fallen between the cracks of its retail branches and private bank for the ultrarich. The idea was to capture some of the $4 trillion in assets that JPMorgan depositors were keeping at other wealth managers like Morgan Stanley and Bank of America.</p><p>Four years later, JPMorgan still lagged well behind its rivals. It has a goal to get to $1 trillion in assets under management. First Republic would put it within spitting distance.</p><p>PNC Financial, Citizens Financial and Fifth Third Bank also made a run at First Republic in the FDIC-led auction. But the deal was JPMorgan&#39;s to lose. With $3.7 trillion in assets, it is more than triple the size of those three combined.</p><p>The deal was announced before the sun rose on Monday, May 1.

In that respect, I view Apple&#39;s shares as deserving of a Buy rating.</p><h2>Why Has Apple&#39;s Share Price Dipped?</h2><p>In the past month, AAPL&#39;s stock price pulled back by -9.3% as compared to a -1.2% marginal decline for the S&amp;P 500. Apple&#39;s last done share price of $129.62 as of January 6, 2023 is also -16.8% below its three-month high of $155.74 registered on October 28, 2022.</p><p>I think that Apple&#39;s share price dip is attributable to the market&#39;s concerns about the App Store and iPhone. In the subsequent section, I highlight specific metrics relating to the two products and services, which explains why they have drawn investor attention.</p><h2>AAPL Stock Key Metrics</h2><p>Investors are worried about the App Store&#39;s recent and future performance, and the risk of lower-than-expected iPhone production, and the metrics outlined below illustrate these issues.</p><p><i>BofA Securities</i> published a research report (not publicly available) titled &#34;App Store Revenue Declines Low Single Digit&#34; on December 1, 2022. As per <i>SensorTower</i> data cited in this report, revenue derived from the App Store decreased by -3.2% YoY for the period between October 1, 2022, and November 29, 2022. Specifically, a +2.6% increase in the number of App Store downloads was more than offset by a -5.7% drop in the App Store&#39;s Average Selling Price. These metrics seemed to confirm fears that consumers will reduce spending on the App Store and other Apple services in a weak economic environment.</p><p>Separately, a December 13, 2022, <i>Seeking Alpha News</i> article cited a <i>Bloomberg</i> report mentioning that AAPL &#34;may soon allow third-party app stores on its iconic iPhones and iPads&#34; so as &#34;to comply with regulations from the European Union.&#34; It is natural for investors to be concerned that the App Store&#39;s future revenue might potentially decline if a significant proportion of app developers choose to bypass the App Store and offer their users the option of downloading their apps on other app stores or websites.</p><p>Another key concern for investors is iPhone production. <i>Seeking Alpha News</i> reported on December 20, 2022, that J.P. Morgan&#39;s (JPM) sell-side analyst covering Apple&#39;s shares has reduced his or her Q1 FY 2023 (YE September 30) iPhone 14 shipment projections by four million units after considering supply chain disruptions in China due to the COVID-zero policy.</p><p>The majority of Wall Street analysts also have a bearish view of Apple&#39;s iPhone sales and overall revenue in the near term judging by the change in consensus financial figures for AAPL. In the last three months, Apple&#39;s consensus Q1 FY 2023 topline was cut by -3.4%. Also, 31 of the 45 sell-side analysts covering Apple&#39;s stock made the decision to lower their respective fiscal 2023 revenue estimates for AAPL in the same time frame. The key risk is that a larger-than-expected number of consumers chose to either give up on buying a new iPhone or switched to competitors, rather than wait for the new iPhone to be made available again when supply normalizes.</p><p>It is easy to understand why Apple&#39;s share price has dipped recently, after a review of the key metrics disclosed in this section of the article.</p><h2>Is It Fairly Valued Now?</h2><p>I am of the view that Apple&#39;s shares are undervalued, instead of being fairly valued, following the recent dip in its stock price.</p><p>AAPL trades at 21.0 times consensus forward next twelve months&#39; normalized P/E now, which is only slightly above its one-year forward P/E trough of 20.2 times as per <i>S&amp;P Capital IQ&#39;s</i> valuation data. Furthermore, Apple&#39;s current P/E valuation multiple is a significant -21% below its three-year average P/E ratio of 26.6 times.</p><p>I touch on the potential of a recovery in Apple&#39;s stock price in the next section.</p><h2>Will Apple Recover?</h2><p>I believe that AAPL&#39;s share price can recover from its recent dip, when investors realize that earlier concerns relating to the stock are overblown.</p><p>With regards to the App Store, its future performance might be better than what the market feared.</p><p>The App Store witnessed its first YoY revenue growth in six months, based on <i>Sensor <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWR.AU\">Tower</a>&#39;s</i> December 2022 data highlighted in this recent January 3, 2022, <i>Seeking Alpha News</i> article. This could mark an inflection point for App Store revenue, as we might have already seen the worst of App Store performance in 2H 2022 (calendar year). Given the bearish market expectations (as outlined in an earlier section of the article) for Apple&#39;s Q1 FY 2023 and full-year FY 2023 financial results, AAPL&#39;s actual Services revenue and overall top line might beat market expectations.</p><p>Also, fewer iPhone users might either switch to alternative app stores or download apps from developers&#39; websites than what investors anticipate. Based on a December 14, 2022, research report (not publicly available) titled &#34;App Store Competition? Bring It On&#34; published by <i>Morgan Stanley</i> (MS), slightly more than a quarter of iPhone users are &#34;extremely likely&#34; to switch away from the App Store for app downloads as per <i>MS&#39;</i> consumer survey which should translate into a -4% decrease in Apple&#39;s Services revenue (or -1% contraction in overall top line).</p><p>On the issue of supply chain disruptions affecting iPhone production, there are reasons to be optimistic considering short-term trends and long-term plans.</p><p>A January 3, 2023 <i>Seeking Alpha News</i> article highlighted that Apple&#39;s key iPhone production plant in China has recovered to run at &#34;90% capacity&#34; again. Also, an earlier December 27, 2022, report (not publicly available) titled &#34;Improving iPhone Lead Times&#34; issued by <i>Credit Suisse</i> (CS) noted that the lead times for the new iPhone 14 models have already declined from the &#34;20+ days&#34; for the December 19 week to &#34;10-17 days&#34; for the December 26 week. In other words, supply chain headwinds for Apple have already eased to a large extent.</p><p>In the long run, Apple has plans in place to further diversify its production away from China to other markets such as Vietnam and India. This should reduce AAPL&#39;s concentration risks relating to China production over time.</p><p>In a nutshell, there are positive signs which suggest that Apple&#39;s shares are due for a recovery.</p><h2>Is AAPL Stock A Buy During The Dip?</h2><p>Apple is a Buy during the dip, considering recent positive developments such as App Store&#39;s December 2022 data and declining lead times for the iPhone 14 models. Moreover, AAPL&#39;s valuations have become more attractive after the recent correction. As such, I make no changes to my current Buy rating for AAPL.</p><p><i>This article is written by The Value Pendulum for reference only.

AAPL's forward P/E multiple has fallen to -21% below its three-year mean, and recent worries relating to the company appear to be overblown.

Seeking Alpha News reported on December 20, 2022, that J.P. Morgan's (JPM) sell-side analyst covering Apple's shares has reduced his or her Q1 FY 2023 (YE September 30) iPhone 14 shipment projections by four million units after considering supply chain disruptions in China due to the COVID-zero policy.The majority of Wall Street analysts also have a bearish view of Apple's iPhone sales and overall revenue in the near term judging by the change in consensus financial figures for AAPL.

In fact, by the end of 2021, the company&#39;s overall returns clocked in at a staggering 3,641,613%.</p><p>Lest there be any doubt, Apple is far and away Berkshire&#39;s largest holding. Buffett ended the second quarter with nearly 895 million shares of Apple stock, worth roughly $122 billion as of June, 30, accounting for about 41% of Berkshire&#39;s portfolio. That&#39;s quite a vote of confidence from one of the world&#39;s most successful investors.</p><h2>2. One billion iPhones strong -- and growing</h2><p>There&#39;s no question that the release of the iconic iPhone in 2007 ushered in the modern smartphone and forever changed the way we communicate. The device&#39;s sleek design and integrated computing power took the world by storm. Now, as we await the release of the upcoming iPhone 14, Apple dominates the market, with more than 1 billion active iPhones in the wild.</p><p>Rumors are swirling that the next-generation device -- which is due to be unveiled next week -- could sport some major upgrades and four new models. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates that roughly 24% of iPhone owners worldwide haven&#39;t upgraded their device over the past 3.5 years. Even in the midst of the prevailing macroeconomic headwinds, this could mark the beginning of the next big product cycle for the iPhone.</p><h2>3. Apple is the new black</h2><p>While the iPhone gets all the press, Apple&#39;s wearables, home products, and accessories segment -- which includes such products as Apple Watch, AirPods, AirTags, and Beats headphones -- continue to steadily attract converts. Earlier this year, noted tech analyst Horace Dediu announced that &#34;Apple Wearables is now [the size of] a Fortune 100 business.&#34; In fact, the segment has generated more revenue so far in fiscal 2022 than either the Mac <i>or</i> the iPad.</p><p>Supply constraints and foreign exchange headwinds have weighed on the segment, which grew just 6% year over year through the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. That said, the resulting pent-up demand will eventually give way to a surge in sales. Furthermore, the company is expected to release the latest versions of its Apple Watch next week. These could include a Pro model, which could serve to supercharge sales of the popular device.</p><h2>4. Services: Apple&#39;s second-biggest breadwinner</h2><p>Long before anyone else, CEO Tim Cook saw the potential for Apple&#39;s services segment, announcing plans in early 2017 to double its revenue over the coming four years. Fast forward to mid-2022, and services has come into its own.</p><p>The segment, which includes Apple Music, the App Store, Apple Pay, and Apple TV+ (among others), just set a June quarter record,  generating 19% of Apple&#39;s total revenue. Services also saw revenue records in each major category, including all-time records for Music, Cloud Services, Apple Care, and Payment Services.</p><p>Apple TV+ began as something of an industry joke, with just eight programs and a documentary. But nobody&#39;s laughing now. Apple has netted more than 250 awards and over 1,100 nominations for its programming, including 52 Emmy Award nominations in 2022.</p><h2>5. Dividends: The gift that keeps on giving</h2><p>Apple began paying a dividend again in 2012 and has amassed quite an impressive track record. The quarterly payout began at a split-adjusted $0.095 and has soared 143% in just ten years.</p><p>This includes Apple&#39;s announcement earlier this year, which boosted the quarterly payout to $0.23 per share, an increase of 5% for 2022. That likely won&#39;t be the last increase as Apple is using less than 15% of its profits to fund the payout, giving the company plenty of opportunity for future increases.</p><h2>6. Fewer shares = a bigger slice of the Apple pie</h2><p>Another highlight of Apple&#39;s shareholder-friendly policies is the company&#39;s strong share-repurchase plan. Apple began buying back shares in earnest in early 2013 and has never taken its foot off the gas. As a result, with each passing quarter, Apple shareholders own a larger share of the company. In fact, over the past 10 years, Apple&#39;s share count has declined by nearly 39%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/efa1386fae6e413934cdecf682a72a71\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts.</p><p>As an example, the company retired roughly 1% of its shares in its fiscal third quarter and has no plans of slowing down.

Our critique was aimed at Alphabet&#39;s seemingly sluggish reaction, a cause of our frustration. However, we attended Google&#39;s recent I/O event and left impressed by the company&#39;s demo of many new AI capabilities. In our view, this event could indicate a shift in Alphabet&#39;s approach, hinting at the dawn of a new era marked by a more assertive AI strategy. This article delves into an analysis of Alphabet&#39;s I/O event, its standing in the AI realm, and offers a fresh evaluation of the company&#39;s financial performance and valuation.</p><h2>What We Learned From Google I/O 2023</h2><p>In Google&#39;s recent 2+ hour keynote address, which was heavily dedicated to Artificial Intelligence, we saw a notable shift towards generative AI, an area that has stirred significant debate since the launch of ChatGPT. This move appears to be a strategic play to regain control of the narrative around generative AI and consolidate Google&#39;s position in this competitive landscape.</p><p>The keynote presentation displayed an impressive array of developments and innovative functionality across Google&#39;s entire suite of products. We believe that this comprehensive approach demonstrates Google&#39;s formidable capabilities in the generative AI space, which should serve to reassure investors about Google&#39;s ability to compete effectively in this arena.</p><p>A particularly encouraging highlight from the event was Google&#39;s disclosure of its AI-optimized infrastructure. Offering better performance at costs up to 50% cheaper than competitors, Google&#39;s proposition directly addresses ongoing investor concerns regarding compute costs pressuring gross margins. By offering a more cost-effective solution, Google is not only enhancing its competitive edge but also potentially boosting its profitability, a significant win for investors.</p><p>Google&#39;s search developments also leaned positive, indicating an ability to respond to increasingly complex queries. This capability could drive incremental search use cases, further strengthening Google&#39;s core Search business, which has been under scrutiny for its terminal value risk. While the company noted it&#39;s not currently making changes to Search ads, it left the door open for potential ad integration in the GAI snapshot area, hinting at a possible new revenue stream.</p><h2>Spotlight: Bard</h2><p>Sissie Hsiao, GM of Google Assistant and Bard, recently presented some significant advancements in Bard, Google&#39;s large language model. Initially launched as an experimental project, Bard has undergone considerable enhancements and now demonstrates proficiency in over 20 programming languages. These languages include widely used ones such as C++, GO, JavaScript, Python, and Kotlin, and even extend to Google Sheets functions. Bard&#39;s capabilities now encompass assisting developers with code generation, debugging, and elucidating code snippets, as evidenced by a Python script that recreates a chess move. In addition, Google has responded to developer feedback by enhancing Bard&#39;s code citations to be more precise, providing specific links to sources when it uses blocks of code from elsewhere.</p><p>The application of Bard extends beyond coding tasks. For example, Google is incorporating the ability to export Bard&#39;s responses directly into Gmail and Google Docs, thereby assisting users in drafting emails and documents. The continual development of Bard is apparent in its integration with other tools. Soon, users will have the capability to export and run code directly from Bard to repl.it. The upcoming launch of a dark mode, which can be activated manually or set to follow the user&#39;s OS settings, reflects Google&#39;s ongoing commitment to enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, Google plans to extend Bard&#39;s capabilities by integrating it with Google Apps and partner services, enabling users to perform tasks securely and privately that were previously impossible.</p><p>The future of Bard appears exciting, with the language model soon being able to interact with images through integration with Google Lens. Bard will be able to identify relevant images in response to prompts and users will be able to prompt Bard with images. Additionally, Google is exploring Bard&#39;s potential as a research tool. An example was demonstrated where Bard was used to locate colleges with animation programs in Pennsylvania, visualize their locations on Google Maps, organize the results in a table, and add pertinent information such as the school&#39;s public or private status. Google is also planning to enable Bard to interact with various online services, such as Instacart, Indeed, and Khan Academy. With the removal of the waitlist and opening up to over 180 countries and territories, Bard&#39;s reach is expanding, and it is set to support 40 languages in the future, already being available in Japanese and Korean.</p><h2>Spotlight: Workspaces</h2><p>Aparna Pappu, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VP..UK\">VP</a> of Google Work Spaces, unveiled the integration of artificial intelligence into Google Workspace, transforming the platform into a dynamic environment for real-time collaboration. This new application of AI aims to elevate productivity by enabling the technology to act as both a coach and a thought partner for users, augmenting human intelligence and efficiency.</p><p>The integration of AI into Google Workspace was demonstrated through a variety of practical examples. The &#34;help me write&#34; feature, currently available in Gmail and Docs, showcased the AI&#39;s capacity to assist with diverse tasks, such as drafting essays, crafting sales pitches, and conducting client outreach. In a striking demonstration of AI&#39;s capabilities, Pappu showed how AI can generate comprehensive job descriptions using only brief prompts, significantly reducing time and effort for HR teams. The AI&#39;s ability to streamline and automate tasks was further illustrated in Google Sheets, where AI was shown to organize the logistics of a dog-walking business, generating a detailed table for clients and pet details. Google Slides also benefited from the integration, with AI able to generate relevant images based on the text within a slide, aiding in visual storytelling.</p><p>The announcement of Duet AI for Workspace marks a significant milestone in Google&#39;s vision for AI-augmented productivity. Set to offer generative AI features across Workspace, Duet AI is expected to provide proactive and contextual prompts to users based on their ongoing tasks, enhancing the ability to work more efficiently and intuitively. A live demonstration of Sidekick, an AI-powered side panel in Workspace, underscored the potential of this new feature. Sidekick was shown to read and process documents in real time, offering context-based suggestions and prompts to enhance the user&#39;s work. Whether it&#39;s generating context-relevant questions for a collaborative story project, summarizing conversations for a potluck planning scenario, or creating speaker notes for a professional presentation, Sidekick underscores AI&#39;s potential as a collaborator, setting the stage for a new era of productivity in Google Workspace.</p><h2>Financial &amp; Valuation</h2><p><em>Note: All historical data in this section comes from the company&#39;s 10-K filings, and all consensus numbers come from FactSet.</em></p><p>In the recently reported Q1 earnings, Google presented a performance that was somewhat lackluster. Despite revenue growth of 2.6% y/y to $69.8 billion, which met consensus estimates, the stock declined by -0.2% post-announcement. The lukewarm market reaction may be attributed to the company&#39;s operating margin, which fell to 25.0% compared to 29.5% a year ago.</p><p>While the company&#39;s earnings per share (EPS) of $1.17 for the quarter did beat consensus by 8%, it represented a 5% y/y decrease, which could be a cause for concern. Yet, it&#39;s important to note that Google&#39;s revenue growth over the past three fiscal years has been robust, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4%.</p><p>Although the sell-side consensus forecasts a slowdown in revenue growth to 5.8% this fiscal year, it predicts a rebound to 11.1% the following fiscal year. We believe this could provide a catalyst for Google&#39;s performance, assuming the tech giant can successfully navigate the competitive landscape and continue to innovate.</p><p>On the bright side, Google&#39;s EBIT margin has increased by 5.2% points over the past three fiscal years, indicating an improvement in operational efficiency. Furthermore, the company has been actively repurchasing shares, reducing the diluted outstanding common shares by 14.5% over the past three years. This aggressive buyback strategy has helped to more than offset shareholder dilution.</p><p>However, Google&#39;s recent performance has been underwhelming compared to the broader market. Over the past year, the company underperformed the S&amp;P 500 by -7% points, delivering a negative absolute return of -2.0%. Despite this, Google&#39;s stock is trading 15.7% above its 200-day moving average, suggesting a degree of investor confidence in the long-term prospects of the company.</p><p>Google&#39;s PEG ratio for FY2 stands at 1.0, compared to the S&amp;P 500&#39;s PEG ratio of 1.5. This represents a discount of 32.7% and could be viewed as a potential opportunity for value-oriented investors. Although the company does not offer a dividend, its strong return on invested capital of 21.4% is a testament to its effective use of capital.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Google&#39;s recent I/O event unveiled a series of impressive advancements in the field of artificial intelligence. The demonstrations of Bard, Google&#39;s language model, showcased its expanded capabilities in assisting developers and its potential to enhance productivity in various tasks. The integration of AI into Google Workspace further solidifies the company&#39;s commitment to empowering users with intelligent collaboration features. Additionally, Google&#39;s financial performance, while presenting some challenges, continues to exhibit strong revenue growth and improved operational efficiency.

Our critique was aimed at Alphabet's seemingly sluggish reaction, a cause of our frustration. However, we attended Google's recent I/O event and left impressed by the company's demo of many new AI capabilities. In our view, this event could indicate a shift in Alphabet's approach, hinting at the dawn of a new era marked by a more assertive AI strategy. This article delves into an analysis of Alphabet's I/O event, its standing in the AI realm, and offers a fresh evaluation of the company's financial performance and valuation.What We Learned From Google I/O 2023In Google's recent 2+ hour keynote address, which was heavily dedicated to Artificial Intelligence, we saw a notable shift towards generative AI, an area that has stirred significant debate since the launch of ChatGPT. This move appears to be a strategic play to regain control of the narrative around generative AI and consolidate Google's position in this competitive landscape.The keynote presentation displayed an impressive array of developments and innovative functionality across Google's entire suite of products. We believe that this comprehensive approach demonstrates Google's formidable capabilities in the generative AI space, which should serve to reassure investors about Google's ability to compete effectively in this arena.A particularly encouraging highlight from the event was Google's disclosure of its AI-optimized infrastructure. Offering better performance at costs up to 50% cheaper than competitors, Google's proposition directly addresses ongoing investor concerns regarding compute costs pressuring gross margins. By offering a more cost-effective solution, Google is not only enhancing its competitive edge but also potentially boosting its profitability, a significant win for investors.Google's search developments also leaned positive, indicating an ability to respond to increasingly complex queries. This capability could drive incremental search use cases, further strengthening Google's core Search business, which has been under scrutiny for its terminal value risk. While the company noted it's not currently making changes to Search ads, it left the door open for potential ad integration in the GAI snapshot area, hinting at a possible new revenue stream.Spotlight: BardSissie Hsiao, GM of Google Assistant and Bard, recently presented some significant advancements in Bard, Google's large language model. Initially launched as an experimental project, Bard has undergone considerable enhancements and now demonstrates proficiency in over 20 programming languages. These languages include widely used ones such as C++, GO, JavaScript, Python, and Kotlin, and even extend to Google Sheets functions. Bard's capabilities now encompass assisting developers with code generation, debugging, and elucidating code snippets, as evidenced by a Python script that recreates a chess move. In addition, Google has responded to developer feedback by enhancing Bard's code citations to be more precise, providing specific links to sources when it uses blocks of code from elsewhere.The application of Bard extends beyond coding tasks. For example, Google is incorporating the ability to export Bard's responses directly into Gmail and Google Docs, thereby assisting users in drafting emails and documents. The continual development of Bard is apparent in its integration with other tools. Soon, users will have the capability to export and run code directly from Bard to repl.it. The upcoming launch of a dark mode, which can be activated manually or set to follow the user's OS settings, reflects Google's ongoing commitment to enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, Google plans to extend Bard's capabilities by integrating it with Google Apps and partner services, enabling users to perform tasks securely and privately that were previously impossible.The future of Bard appears exciting, with the language model soon being able to interact with images through integration with Google Lens. Bard will be able to identify relevant images in response to prompts and users will be able to prompt Bard with images. Additionally, Google is exploring Bard's potential as a research tool. An example was demonstrated where Bard was used to locate colleges with animation programs in Pennsylvania, visualize their locations on Google Maps, organize the results in a table, and add pertinent information such as the school's public or private status. Google is also planning to enable Bard to interact with various online services, such as Instacart, Indeed, and Khan Academy. With the removal of the waitlist and opening up to over 180 countries and territories, Bard's reach is expanding, and it is set to support 40 languages in the future, already being available in Japanese and Korean.Spotlight: WorkspacesAparna Pappu, VP of Google Work Spaces, unveiled the integration of artificial intelligence into Google Workspace, transforming the platform into a dynamic environment for real-time collaboration. This new application of AI aims to elevate productivity by enabling the technology to act as both a coach and a thought partner for users, augmenting human intelligence and efficiency.The integration of AI into Google Workspace was demonstrated through a variety of practical examples. The \"help me write\" feature, currently available in Gmail and Docs, showcased the AI's capacity to assist with diverse tasks, such as drafting essays, crafting sales pitches, and conducting client outreach. In a striking demonstration of AI's capabilities, Pappu showed how AI can generate comprehensive job descriptions using only brief prompts, significantly reducing time and effort for HR teams. The AI's ability to streamline and automate tasks was further illustrated in Google Sheets, where AI was shown to organize the logistics of a dog-walking business, generating a detailed table for clients and pet details. Google Slides also benefited from the integration, with AI able to generate relevant images based on the text within a slide, aiding in visual storytelling.The announcement of Duet AI for Workspace marks a significant milestone in Google's vision for AI-augmented productivity. Set to offer generative AI features across Workspace, Duet AI is expected to provide proactive and contextual prompts to users based on their ongoing tasks, enhancing the ability to work more efficiently and intuitively. A live demonstration of Sidekick, an AI-powered side panel in Workspace, underscored the potential of this new feature. Sidekick was shown to read and process documents in real time, offering context-based suggestions and prompts to enhance the user's work. Whether it's generating context-relevant questions for a collaborative story project, summarizing conversations for a potluck planning scenario, or creating speaker notes for a professional presentation, Sidekick underscores AI's potential as a collaborator, setting the stage for a new era of productivity in Google Workspace.Financial & ValuationNote: All historical data in this section comes from the company's 10-K filings, and all consensus numbers come from FactSet.In the recently reported Q1 earnings, Google presented a performance that was somewhat lackluster. Despite revenue growth of 2.6% y/y to $69.8 billion, which met consensus estimates, the stock declined by -0.2% post-announcement. The lukewarm market reaction may be attributed to the company's operating margin, which fell to 25.0% compared to 29.5% a year ago.While the company's earnings per share (EPS) of $1.17 for the quarter did beat consensus by 8%, it represented a 5% y/y decrease, which could be a cause for concern. Yet, it's important to note that Google's revenue growth over the past three fiscal years has been robust, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4%.Although the sell-side consensus forecasts a slowdown in revenue growth to 5.8% this fiscal year, it predicts a rebound to 11.1% the following fiscal year. We believe this could provide a catalyst for Google's performance, assuming the tech giant can successfully navigate the competitive landscape and continue to innovate.On the bright side, Google's EBIT margin has increased by 5.2% points over the past three fiscal years, indicating an improvement in operational efficiency. Furthermore, the company has been actively repurchasing shares, reducing the diluted outstanding common shares by 14.5% over the past three years. This aggressive buyback strategy has helped to more than offset shareholder dilution.However, Google's recent performance has been underwhelming compared to the broader market. Over the past year, the company underperformed the S&P 500 by -7% points, delivering a negative absolute return of -2.0%. Despite this, Google's stock is trading 15.7% above its 200-day moving average, suggesting a degree of investor confidence in the long-term prospects of the company.Google's PEG ratio for FY2 stands at 1.0, compared to the S&P 500's PEG ratio of 1.5. This represents a discount of 32.7% and could be viewed as a potential opportunity for value-oriented investors. Although the company does not offer a dividend, its strong return on invested capital of 21.4% is a testament to its effective use of capital.ConclusionGoogle's recent I/O event unveiled a series of impressive advancements in the field of artificial intelligence. The demonstrations of Bard, Google's language model, showcased its expanded capabilities in assisting developers and its potential to enhance productivity in various tasks. The integration of AI into Google Workspace further solidifies the company's commitment to empowering users with intelligent collaboration features. Additionally, Google's financial performance, while presenting some challenges, continues to exhibit strong revenue growth and improved operational efficiency. Overall, the event signifies a shift in Alphabet's approach to AI, highlighting their determination to maintain a leading position in the competitive AI landscape. As Google continues to innovate and leverage the power of AI, it presents investors with potential opportunities for long-term growth and value creation.However, investors should keep in mind that Google is still behind Microsoft in terms of implementing generative AI, as we wrote about last month. It is important for investors to thoroughly assess and consider the risks highlighted in the article as part of their due diligence process.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940393026,"gmtCreate":1677680295966,"gmtModify":1677680300633,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"steady lah alphabet!","listText":"steady lah alphabet!","text":"steady lah alphabet!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940393026","repostId":"1155741518","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155741518","pubTimestamp":1677679595,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155741518?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-01 22:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Alphabet Stock a Buy Now?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155741518","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Google has built a big moat around its business, though, and this will be a tough business to break.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h3>KEY POINTS</h3><ul><li>Investors fear the disruption Google is facing from artificial intelligence.</li><li>It&#39;s true that advertising revenue is already struggling, so there&#39;s some weakness in the business.</li><li>Google has built a big moat around its business, though, and this will be a tough business to break.</li></ul><p>This is a generational buying opportunity for a leading tech stock.</p><p>Shares of Alphabet have fallen 40% from their all-time high, with the latest pullback being driven by fear about artificial intelligence.</p><p>The fear of disruption isn&#39;t unfounded given how quickly AI has grown.

have excellent long-term outlooks, but one is unquestionably the better buy.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>A stock market sell-off in 2022 has tanked the share prices of some of the world&#39;s most valuable companies, creating an excellent time to invest in growth stocks like <b>Amazon</b> (AMZN) and <b>Apple</b> (AAPL). These companies are known as leaders of their respective industries, yet have watched their stocks suffer double-digit declines over the past year.</p><p>Regardless, Amazon and Apple continue to have great long-term outlooks, making both of their stocks worth an investment. However, if you&#39;re only looking to add one stock to your portfolio, you might wonder which is the better buy. So, let&#39;s assess.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a></h2><p>Amazon has come a long way since starting out as an online book retailer in 1994, expanding into several lucrative industries. The company&#39;s stock has plummeted 46% since January amid macroeconomic headwinds. However, its diverse business has continued to see revenue growth in 2022, a promising sign for its future.</p><p>In the third quarter of 2022, Amazon&#39;s revenue rose 14.7% year over year to $127.1 billion, with operating income coming in at $2.5 billion.</p><p>In its e-commerce business, the company&#39;s North American segment increased by 20% to $78.8 billion, and its international revenue decreased by 5% to $27.7 billion. However, its earnings abroad primarily suffered from changes in foreign exchange rates, resulting in a strong dollar. Thus, Amazon&#39;s international revenue rose 12%, excluding exchange fluctuations.</p><p>The bright spot of Amazon&#39;s year amid an economic downturn has, no doubt, been its cloud computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS). The platform&#39;s segment made up 100% of the company&#39;s operating income in Q3 2022, with revenue increasing 27% year over year to $20.5 billion.</p><p>While a potential recession in 2023 could lead to further declines in its e-commerce business, AWS&#39;s continued growth over the last year proves it will likely continue flourishing no matter the economic climate and prop the company up through a possibly challenging year.</p><p>However, according to the Federal Reserve, consumer spending has risen for the last three quarters. If this continues on its current trajectory, Amazon could see a return to operating income in its e-commerce business next year, along with continued growth in AWS.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></h2><p>Despite falling 21% year to date, Apple stock has risen 228% over the last five years, making it one of the best growth companies out there. By comparison, Amazon&#39;s stock has increased by 55% in five years.</p><p>In a year plagued by tech industry declines, Apple has reported strong sales for its products. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the company&#39;s iPhone revenue increased by 9.6% to $42.6 billion despite worldwide smartphone shipments decreasing by 9.7%, according to IDC.</p><p>Similarly, the company&#39;s Mac segment reported growth of 25.3% year over year, hitting $11.5 billion, while worldwide PC shipments fell 15%.</p><p>Apple has attracted investor concern over the last month because of its dependence on China for iPhone production as the smartphones made up 52% of the company&#39;s revenue in its fiscal 2022. COVID-19 restrictions in the country have strained production and motivated Apple to begin diversifying its iPhone manufacturing.</p><p>The company is now making a portion of its iPhone 14s in India, with <b>JP Morgan Chase </b>estimating that about 25% of all Apple&#39;s products will be produced there by 2025. It could take years for Apple to move out of China completely; however, that doesn&#39;t dampen its long-term prospects.</p><p>In addition to diversifying its product manufacturing, the company has a swiftly growing services business that could alleviate pressure from its iPhone segment. As Apple&#39;s second-biggest segment in its fiscal 2022, services revenue rose 14% year over year to $78.1 billion. By contrast, iPhone revenue increased by 7% during the year.</p><p>Regarding key metrics for Amazon and Apple, Amazon&#39;s price-to-earnings ratio is at 84, rising 27% in the last year.

These companies are known as leaders of their respective industries, yet have watched their stocks suffer double-digit declines over the past year.Regardless, Amazon and Apple continue to have great long-term outlooks, making both of their stocks worth an investment. However, if you're only looking to add one stock to your portfolio, you might wonder which is the better buy. So, let's assess.1. AmazonAmazon has come a long way since starting out as an online book retailer in 1994, expanding into several lucrative industries. The company's stock has plummeted 46% since January amid macroeconomic headwinds. However, its diverse business has continued to see revenue growth in 2022, a promising sign for its future.In the third quarter of 2022, Amazon's revenue rose 14.7% year over year to $127.1 billion, with operating income coming in at $2.5 billion.In its e-commerce business, the company's North American segment increased by 20% to $78.8 billion, and its international revenue decreased by 5% to $27.7 billion. However, its earnings abroad primarily suffered from changes in foreign exchange rates, resulting in a strong dollar. Thus, Amazon's international revenue rose 12%, excluding exchange fluctuations.The bright spot of Amazon's year amid an economic downturn has, no doubt, been its cloud computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS). The platform's segment made up 100% of the company's operating income in Q3 2022, with revenue increasing 27% year over year to $20.5 billion.While a potential recession in 2023 could lead to further declines in its e-commerce business, AWS's continued growth over the last year proves it will likely continue flourishing no matter the economic climate and prop the company up through a possibly challenging year.However, according to the Federal Reserve, consumer spending has risen for the last three quarters. If this continues on its current trajectory, Amazon could see a return to operating income in its e-commerce business next year, along with continued growth in AWS.2. AppleDespite falling 21% year to date, Apple stock has risen 228% over the last five years, making it one of the best growth companies out there. By comparison, Amazon's stock has increased by 55% in five years.In a year plagued by tech industry declines, Apple has reported strong sales for its products. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the company's iPhone revenue increased by 9.6% to $42.6 billion despite worldwide smartphone shipments decreasing by 9.7%, according to IDC.Similarly, the company's Mac segment reported growth of 25.3% year over year, hitting $11.5 billion, while worldwide PC shipments fell 15%.Apple has attracted investor concern over the last month because of its dependence on China for iPhone production as the smartphones made up 52% of the company's revenue in its fiscal 2022. COVID-19 restrictions in the country have strained production and motivated Apple to begin diversifying its iPhone manufacturing.The company is now making a portion of its iPhone 14s in India, with JP Morgan Chase estimating that about 25% of all Apple's products will be produced there by 2025. It could take years for Apple to move out of China completely; however, that doesn't dampen its long-term prospects.In addition to diversifying its product manufacturing, the company has a swiftly growing services business that could alleviate pressure from its iPhone segment. As Apple's second-biggest segment in its fiscal 2022, services revenue rose 14% year over year to $78.1 billion. By contrast, iPhone revenue increased by 7% during the year.Regarding key metrics for Amazon and Apple, Amazon's price-to-earnings ratio is at 84, rising 27% in the last year. Meanwhile, Apple's is about 23 after declining 24% since last December.In terms of free cash flow, Amazon's stood at a negative 26.3 billion as of Sept. 30, while Apple's came in at $111.44 billion.Amazon continues to have an excellent outlook over the long term. However, Apple has fared far better in 2022, and the stock currently offers more value. Additionally, the company's ability to keep up stellar demand for its products in a poor economic climate makes its stock undoubtedly a more reliable and better buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":139,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9914053840,"gmtCreate":1665142419081,"gmtModify":1676537563415,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's now.&nbsp;","listText":"It's now.&nbsp;","text":"It's now.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9914053840","repostId":"2273804073","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2273804073","pubTimestamp":1665134327,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2273804073?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-07 17:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Google: If You Are Not Buying Now, When Will You","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2273804073","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryThe volatility of the market opens up opportunities for long-term investments in quality comp","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>Summary</h2><ul><li>The volatility of the market opens up opportunities for long-term investments in quality companies.</li><li>Alphabet&#39;s premium valuation is vanishing, while still standing strong.</li><li>Value and growth are in the right position to enjoy a better-than-average return on your investment.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0aa1f1d6bbda376b9127c722b81ee6c4\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>400tmax/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images</span></p><h2>Cash is king, but for how long...</h2><p>Investors who sold their stocks for cash in the beginning of this year have indisputably outperformed investors who have stayed fully invested.

Historically, the valuation of Alphabet is now down to a 9-year low. If the long-term fundamentals of the business remain strong, this could be a great entry point for a position in Alphabet.</p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p>Shareholders of Alphabet can now enjoy a higher than normal free cash flow yield of 5.01%. In the past Alphabet has been trading at a premium yield compared to Apple (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT). It is likely that the bearish outlook on advertising spending, due to recession fears, has caused the higher free cash flow yield for both <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (META) and Alphabet (meaning the price has gone down). On the other hand, Amazon&#39;s (AMZN) free cash flow took a deep dive lately as a result of expenses running up to make and transport consumer goods.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58a04d2df73052915ec50b931e6ddd3e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"484\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Alphabet has a long standing track record of 20% revenue growth annually.

The company can grow through M&amp;A activity, if organic growth must pose a slowdown. Alphabet is well-known for their excellent M&amp;A strategies, look at how successful YouTube, Android, Waze and many more have gotten. Of course, not all acquisitions were a moonshot, even so Alphabet only needed a handful.

If a recession hits the economy, a decrease in advertising spending will be imminent. Families and businesses will cut costs as jobs and profitability are on the line. Alphabet has been pausing hiring as it tries to get a view over the current economic situation. The company survived multiple economic downturns, has cut the employee head count before, while maintaining solid revenue growth. The decrease of spending is needed when difficult times are around the corner. Nonetheless, Alphabet has shown resilience in the past.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25ce7bd02118f2f5a9c1b9e7ae2ec793\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Further, political headwinds all over the world can bring setbacks to the company. Google was fined €2.42 billion (approx. $2.39 billion) for abusing dominance as a search engine. Governments try to keep monopolies in check, and this can damage the growth prospects and the balance sheet of Alphabet.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>I rate Alphabet a Strong Buy at $100 a share. In 10 years, people will still be watching YouTube, using Google Maps and everything else. The company is surrounded by a great moat, which makes Alphabet an all-weather buy. Currently, the stock is trading at a discount compared to previous premium valuation. Alphabet feels like a no-brainer compared to others in the S&amp;P 500, and it is time to take advantage before the tide turns around. The high margin of safety present on Alphabet is hard to find elsewhere.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/057b6992d52d27fa484989a412fbc5e0\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"552\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Google: If You Are Not Buying Now, When Will You</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\">\nGoogle: If You Are Not Buying Now, When Will You\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-07 17:18 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544993-google-stock-buy-now><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe volatility of the market opens up opportunities for long-term investments in quality companies.Alphabet's premium valuation is vanishing, while still standing strong.Value and growth are in...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544993-google-stock-buy-now\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GOOG":"谷歌","GOOGL":"谷歌A"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544993-google-stock-buy-now","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2273804073","content_text":"SummaryThe volatility of the market opens up opportunities for long-term investments in quality companies.Alphabet's premium valuation is vanishing, while still standing strong.Value and growth are in the right position to enjoy a better-than-average return on your investment.400tmax/iStock Unreleased via Getty ImagesCash is king, but for how long...Investors who sold their stocks for cash in the beginning of this year have indisputably outperformed investors who have stayed fully invested.

If a recession hits the economy, a decrease in advertising spending will be imminent. Families and businesses will cut costs as jobs and profitability are on the line. Alphabet has been pausing hiring as it tries to get a view over the current economic situation. The company survived multiple economic downturns, has cut the employee head count before, while maintaining solid revenue growth. The decrease of spending is needed when difficult times are around the corner. Nonetheless, Alphabet has shown resilience in the past.Data by YChartsFurther, political headwinds all over the world can bring setbacks to the company. Google was fined €2.42 billion (approx. $2.39 billion) for abusing dominance as a search engine. Governments try to keep monopolies in check, and this can damage the growth prospects and the balance sheet of Alphabet.TakeawayI rate Alphabet a Strong Buy at $100 a share. In 10 years, people will still be watching YouTube, using Google Maps and everything else. The company is surrounded by a great moat, which makes Alphabet an all-weather buy. Currently, the stock is trading at a discount compared to previous premium valuation. Alphabet feels like a no-brainer compared to others in the S&P 500, and it is time to take advantage before the tide turns around. The high margin of safety present on Alphabet is hard to find elsewhere.Data by YCharts","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":180,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937701685,"gmtCreate":1663495671747,"gmtModify":1676537279315,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok.

They&#39;re solid candidates if you have $5,000 to spend -- and even if you have $1,000 or $50,000 to spend.</p><h2><b>1. Meta Platforms</b></h2><p><b>Meta Platforms</b> is the company you might know as Facebook, but it changed its name in 2021 to reflect the scope of its operations and ambitions beyond its original social media platform. Its social media operations are rather enormous, though, with nearly 3 billion monthly active users and nearly 2 billion daily active users for Facebook alone. When you add in its other platforms -- which include Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp -- it has close to 3 billion daily active users.</p><p>Meanwhile, according to the company, &#34;Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology,&#34; -- thus its other main division, &#34;Reality Labs.&#34; So far, it&#39;s far from a big money-making enterprise, but management has high hopes for it. The company is also chasing additional profits from expanded e-commerce operations, greater use of artificial intelligence for driving content recommendations, and its answer to TikTok videos -- reels.</p><p>So why might Meta Platforms be a value stock? Well, its recent performances have disappointed investors, and their responses to its results, along with the overall market downturn, have sent its shares down by nearly 60% from their 52-week high. Now, they trade at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 14, well below their five-year average of 27. This could be a great buying opportunity for long-term believers in Mark Zuckerberg and his business.</p><h2><b>2. ServiceNow</b></h2><p><b>ServiceNow</b>, has a market cap of more than $90 billion, but its shares have fallen this year to about 36% below their 52-week high. The software-as-a-service company describes itself like this: &#34;Our cloud‑based platform and solutions help digitize and unify organizations so that they can find smarter, faster, better ways to make work flow&#34; and so &#34;employees and customers can be more connected, more innovative, and more agile.&#34;</p><p>Its second quarter featured subscription revenue of $1.7 billion, up 25% year over year, and total revenue of $1.8 billion, up 24%. Subscription income can be a big plus for a business, as it tends to keep recurring regularly, making it easier for management to plan. The company also noted: &#34;ServiceNow continues to expand its global footprint with more than 100 customers now paying over $10 million in annual contract value in Q2 2022, up more than 50% year‑over‑year.&#34;</p><p>Clearly, this is an attractive business -- and it&#39;s trading at attractive levels, too, with a recent forward-price-to-earnings ratio of 52, well below its five-year average of 80.</p><h2><b>3. ASML Holding</b></h2><p>Netherlands-based <b>ASML Holding</b> is, in its own words, &#34;a leading supplier to the semiconductor industry. The company provides chipmakers with hardware, software and services to mass produce the patterns of integrated circuits (microchips). Together with its partners, ASML drives the advancement of more affordable, more powerful, more energy-efficient microchips.&#34; Its market cap recently was near $185 billion, and it employs some 35,000 people.</p><p>The company&#39;s second-quarter report was a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, it booked a record level of new orders and the company&#39;s backlog of orders stands at around 33 billion euros -- reflecting great demand for its products. On the other hand, the company (like many others) is being pressured by supply chain issues and inflation. In response, management has reduced its expectations for revenue growth and profitability.</p><p>Its shares, meanwhile, were recently down some 47% from their 52-week high. Yes, it&#39;s facing some headwinds, but these headwinds are not likely to last forever. The stock&#39;s recent price-to-cash-flow ratio was recently 20, well below its five-year average of 37, suggesting undervaluation. At this level, it should draw the attention of investors.</p><p>These are just a few of the many compellingly valued stocks out there now, and plenty of these businesses have been growing at a rapid clip, too. Take a closer look at any that interest you to see if they seem worthy of a berth in your long-term portfolio.</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>Got $5,000?

If you are just starting out as an investor but only have so much available to invest -- say $500 -- you want to start out with solid choices you know will do well so you can grow that initial investment. You also need to know these choices will be fine in the long run, and able to shrug off any short-term challenges.</p><p>With that as the backdrop, here&#39;s a rundown of five different stocks you can confidently invest $500 in right now and not worry about them too much for the next several years.</p><h2 id=\"id_3620851651\">1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PG\">Procter &amp; Gamble</a></h2><p>You&#39;ve heard of the company. And you&#39;re likely to also be a customer without even realizing it. Procter &amp; Gamble is parent to several popular brands of consumer goods, including Tide laundry detergent, Gillette razors, Luvs and Pampers diapers, Cascade dishwasher detergent, Bounty paper towels, and more.</p><p>Its products aren&#39;t just familiar, either. In market research outfit BrandSpark&#39;s most recent look at the market, Procter &amp; Gamble boasted a leading 23 of the country&#39;s most trusted brand names; Tide alone won in five different laundry categories.</p><p>This is no small matter. See, although brand recognition alone doesn&#39;t inherently guarantee profitability, market dominance goes a long way in ensuring a leading brand remains a leading brand. Not only does Procter &amp; Gamble enjoy all the advantages of scale, like relatively lower production and operating costs as well as sales leverage with retailers, but it also simply has more products to cross-sell. P&amp;G can also afford to be one of the world&#39;s biggest advertisers.</p><p>Connect the dots. It&#39;s unlikely Procter &amp; Gamble is going to be dethroned anytime soon, if ever.</p><h2 id=\"id_3269544970\">2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></h2><p>Here&#39;s another company that doesn&#39;t need much of an introduction. Apple, of course, makes the world&#39;s single most popular smartphone -- the iPhone. Yes, Samsung technically sells more total smartphones, but in a variety of models and price ranges. Apple also generates far more smartphone revenue than any of its rivals due to the iPhone&#39;s premium pricing.</p><p>Loyalty to the iOS operating system powering iPhones is sky-high, too, with market research firm Consumer Intelligence Research Partners reporting that 94% of iOS users (most of them being iPhone users) plan on sticking with the operating system when it&#39;s time to upgrade their devices. Consumer Intelligence Research Partners adds that between early last year and early this year, 15% of iPhone purchases made within the United States were made by former users of Samsung&#39;s Android smartphones. Both measures are far stronger than Android&#39;s appeal and loyalty.</p><p>Although the iPhone is a powerhouse product accounting for more than half of the company&#39;s revenue, it&#39;s not the only reason to step into Apple for the long haul. The popular device is increasingly a means to an end, generating additional revenue by facilitating the sale of apps, music, and video entertainment. These digital services now account for around one-fourth of Apple&#39;s top line and even more of its bottom line.</p><p>Apps and subscriptions only fuel consumer loyalty to Apple&#39;s iOS digital ecosystem, of course. People are not only already familiar with the operating system, but they&#39;ve already paid for many of the apps installed on previous versions of their smartphones.</p><h2 id=\"id_3507458951\">3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></h2><p>This is yet another company you&#39;re more than familiar with. Visa is the world&#39;s biggest credit card middleman (outside of China, anyway), handling the purchase of $14.8 trillion worth of goods and services in its recently ended fiscal year. That&#39;s more than 259 billion total transactions from a crowd wielding more than 4 billion Visa credit and debit cards.</p><p>Visa&#39;s sheer reach is only half the reason to own the stock, however. The other half is the way consumer spending is evolving. Cash is slowly but surely going away, displaced by cards. The U.S. Federal Reserve reports that back in 2012, cash was used to handle 40% of purchases made within the United States. Now, that number has been dialed back to only 18%. During this time, debit and credit card usage has grown from 44% of transactions to 60%.</p><p>Yet, there&#39;s room remaining for both of these trends to continue.</p><p>This shift, of course, reflects the growing convenience of cards and the growing inconvenience of paper and coins. It&#39;s now common within the United States to purchase things like groceries or even pay your wireless phone bill with a credit card, and more so every day.</p><p>Visa may never be a high-growth stock. As long as sellers and buyers want to connect with one another, though, Visa&#39;s service will be a necessary one.</p><h2 id=\"id_1739133160\">4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a></h2><p>You probably know the name as the developer of image-editing software Photoshop or the premier name in digital PDF (portable document file) solutions. And it still offers both.</p><p>However, Adobe is so much more than Photoshop and PDFs. The company offers a full-blown suite of digital tools aimed at the business market. Stock photography, generative AI, 3D modeling, animation, web traffic analytics, e-commerce tools, targeted marketing, and digital data collection (and more) are all in its wheelhouse now.</p><p>That&#39;s not the evolution that makes Adobe such a worry-free investment, though. You can confidently pour at least a portion of your idle cash into it at this time because of the way it now offers its software to customers. While you can still purchase it outright on a one-time basis, most users now opt for the subscription-based, cloud-accessed versions of its tools. Not only are these tools always up to date and accessible from anywhere, but this model is also often more cost-effective for the end-user. It&#39;s good for Adobe and its investors, too, as recurring revenue is also predictable revenue.</p><p>To this end, Adobe&#39;s annualized recurring revenue run rate now stands at $14.6 billion, while $15.7 billion worth of this business is already lined up and waiting to be booked. For perspective, Adobe has done about $18.9 billion worth of business over the course of the past four quarters.</p><h2 id=\"id_3283725545\">5. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KO\">Coca-Cola</a></h2><p>Last but not least, add Coca-Cola to your list of stocks you can confidently step into right now.</p><p>Like Adobe, Procter &amp; Gamble, Apple, and Visa, the big draw here is once again the habitual, recurring purchase of its products -- all of them. Yes, there&#39;s its market-leading namesake cola. The company isn&#39;t just carbonated beverages, though. This is also the name behind Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, Minute Maid juice, and others. It&#39;s always got a beverage product to sell someone.</p><p>The key selling feature of Coca-Cola stock, however, is its dividend. The current dividend yield is a healthy 3.2%, but more than that, it&#39;s a dividend that&#39;s been raised every single year for the past 61 years.</p><p>Don&#39;t look for this streak to be snapped anytime soon, either. See, the beverage giant has spent the past several years selling its bottling operations back to local bottlers so it can better focus on what it does best. That&#39;s marketing and licensing its flavors and brand names. And it&#39;s very,<em> very</em> good at it; there&#39;s a reason brand names and their corresponding brand logos are among the most recognized in the world.</p><p>While this strategic shift means less net revenue, since profit margins on royalties are much higher than margins on bottling, The Coca-Cola Company is actually set to make more net income now than it was earning then.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3862e9a8f827075ba0534701a963021\" alt=\"KO Revenue (Quarterly) data by YCharts.\" title=\"KO Revenue (Quarterly) data by YCharts.\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"500\"/><span>KO Revenue (Quarterly) data by YCharts.</span></p><p>As the chart above also illustrates, Coca-Cola is making far more than enough money to continue funding its dividend.

“FIRE” movement, which stands for “Financial Independence, Retire Early”, has gained traction in recent years.More people are now aware of the need to build up a source of passive income that can take them through their golden years.But a key question remains.How much do you exactly require to retire in Singapore?FIRE has been popularised by millennials but perhaps even they may not anticipate the amount required many decades later when they hit the retirement age.What’s clear, though, is that investing can help you on the path to your eventual retirement.Let’s break down what’s needed for retirement and see how investing can help you to accelerate the journey towards these objectives.A basic standard of livingA team of researchers from the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy has, back in 2019, computed the minimum household budget for a single elderly person aged 65 and above to get by.The amount reported was S$1,379 per month and for an elderly couple, the amount is S$2,351 per month.While this is a good starting point to compute how much you’ll need, two important factors need to be accounted for.The first is the presence of high inflation in recent months that has raised the cost of living significantly as the prices of food, utilities and other expenses have risen.The second is that the researchers only computed the amount for a basic standard of living that does not account for the occasional pleasures in life such as travel, dining in restaurants and other pleasurable pursuits.If we factor in a 5% inflation rate from 2020 to 2022, and then 3% thereafter, a single person will need roughly S$2,000 per month by 2030.To account for a slightly more comfortable standard of living, we should add another S$500 a month to get a total of around S$2,500 per month.Working out a retirement amountNext, you can compute how much you’ll need to sock away based on this target figure.Singapore’s current minimum retirement age is 63 years and life expectancy as of 2021 stands at 83.5 years for residents.This means that you can reasonably expect to live for another two decades after you retire.Using S$2,500 a month, you will need a total of S$600,000.Note that this amount does not include additional expenses for medical issues, emergencies and other exigencies.A survey conducted by Manulife early last year showed that the average retirement savings for pre-retirees (i.e. those who are easing into retirement soon) are just S$423,000.Most respondents in the survey indicated that they need S$1.1 million for a comfortable retirement, more than double what the average had saved up.Don’t fail to planAs the saying goes, if you fail to plan, then you’re planning to fail.Although the CPF system may offer some relief, note that you can only withdraw S$5,000 when you hit 55 and then just 20% of your retirement savings less the S$5,000 withdrawn when you hit 65.Start parking your money now in strong, blue-chip companies such as DBS Group(SGX: D05) or resilient smaller caps such as Sheng Siong Group Ltd(SGX: OV8).And if you have spare cash left over every month, you can consider a dollar-cost average method by allocating a fixed amount to your favourite stocks over the long term.The compounding effect can ensure that you build up a comfortable nest egg that can last you through your retirement years.Generating an income stream through dividendsMeanwhile, apart from growing your nest egg, you can also consider investing in dividend-paying stocks that can provide you with passive income to offset your expenses when you retire.REITs are a great option as this asset class is well-known for paying out dependable dividends over the years.Some examples include Mapletree Logistics Trust(SGX: M44U), or MLT, Keppel DC REIT(SGX: AJBU) and Frasers Centrepoint Trust(SGX: J69U), or FCT.MLT and Keppel DC REIT both sport distribution yields of 5.6% while FCT’s trailing distribution yield stands at 5.5%.Elsewhere, growth stocks such as iFAST Corporation Limited(SGX: AIY) andUMS Holdings Limited(SGX: 558) not only pay quarterly dividends but also have the potential to raise their dividends in the future.By taking steps to grow your investment portfolio and generate a stream of passive income, you can be confident of blissful retirement.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9918277077,"gmtCreate":1664411099699,"gmtModify":1676537448828,"author":{"id":"4118995891452552","authorId":"4118995891452552","name":"Agedashi","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b387c656730b99f1adeb7cc29ae84fe3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4118995891452552","authorIdStr":"4118995891452552"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏻
