But on the other hand, history conclusively shows that buying stocks during bear market declines is a genius move for long-term investors. That&#39;s because every double-digit percentage decline throughout history has eventually been wiped away by a bull market. Patience is the not-so-subtle secret ingredient needed for success.</p><p>It also doesn&#39;t hurt if investors buy and hold companies with game-changing characteristics. What follows are three supercharged growth stocks with the innovative capacity to turn an initial investment of $300,000 into $1 million by 2029.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">Nio</a></h2><p>The first colossal growth stock with the potential to generate a return of at least 233% by 2029 is electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer <b>Nio</b>.</p><p>For the past couple of quarters, Nio and other auto stocks have contended with tremendous headwinds, such as semiconductor chip and general parts shortages, as well as historically high inflation. Being based in China, Nio is also dealing with domestic zero-COVID policies, which have created supply chain headaches throughout the country.</p><p>Yet in spite of these challenges, Nio looks like an amazing deal for patient investors betting on sustained double-digit growth in global EV sales throughout the decade.</p><p>To start with, Nio is based in the world&#39;s No. 1 auto market. With China aiming to phase out the sale of gas-burning autos by 2035, the ramp-up in EV sales should be faster than in most developed countries. Considering that China&#39;s EV industry is still nascent, Nio has a genuine opportunity to become a major player despite being a relatively new entrant to the auto industry.</p><p>Additionally, the company has demonstrated impressive production totals in spite of the aforementioned headwinds. Nio has delivered in excess of 10,000 EVs in each of the past three months. This includes an all-time high of 12,961 EVs in June. Management has previously opined that monthly production could ramp to as many as 50,000 EVs within a year once supply chain constraints are removed. In other words, Nio isn&#39;t contending with any demand-side issues.</p><p>This is also a company that&#39;s leading with innovation. Nio has been introducing at least one new vehicle annually, and has expanded its SUV and sedan offerings to cater to a wider audience. What&#39;s arguably most intriguing about Nio&#39;s sedans is the fact that the top battery upgrade offers superior range (approximately 621 miles) compared to virtually all other EV manufacturers.</p><p>Nio&#39;s out-of-the-box thinking is a competitive advantage as well. During the summer of 2020, the company introduced its battery-as-a-service (BaaS) subscription. For EV buyers, BaaS lowers the initial purchase of a vehicle and allows for the recharging, swapping, and upgrade of batteries. As for Nio, it forgoes a little near-term revenue in exchange for high-margin, recurring subscription sales, and the loyalty of its early buyers.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GTBIF\">Green Thumb Industries </a></h2><p>A second supercharged growth stock that can turn $300,000 into a cool $1 million over the next seven years is U.S. cannabis multistate operator (MSO) <b>Green Thumb Industries</b>.</p><p>Following the 2020 election that saw Joe Biden win the presidency, Wall Street was enthused about the prospects of cannabis reform at the federal level. This buzz really kicked into high gear when Democrats took control of the Senate by the narrowest of margins in January 2021.</p><p>But after more than 19 months of President Biden in the Oval Office, it&#39;s become painfully clear that marijuana legalization isn&#39;t on the docket anytime soon. While pot stock investors might be disappointed to hear this, there are ample opportunities at the state level for legalizations to drive sales and profits for MSOs like Green Thumb higher.</p><p>When the first half of 2022 came to a close, Green Thumb had 77 operating dispensaries spanning 14 states. While same-store sales growth was disappointing in the most recent quarter, the pandemic has demonstrated the nondiscretionary appeal of cannabis products. In other words, no matter what the U.S. economy throws at consumers, they&#39;ll keep buying pot products.</p><p>Although Green Thumb has a presence in most high-dollar legalized markets, its push into limited-license states (Illinois, Ohio, Massachusetts, and Virginia) is what should be raising eyebrows. Limited-license markets purposely limit the number of dispensary licenses issued in total, as well as to a single business. Doing so encourages competition and ensures that Green Thumb can build up its brands and garner a loyal following.</p><p>However, the most exciting thing about Green Thumb Industries might be its revenue mix. Well over half of the company&#39;s sales originated from derivative cannabis products in the second quarter. Derivatives include oils, edibles, infused beverages, pre-rolls, and vapes. These are products with substantially higher price points and much better margins than dried cannabis flower. Pushing derivatives has helped Green Thumb achieve eight consecutive quarters of generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP) profits.  Comparatively, most MSOs aren&#39;t even profitable on a recurring basis, as of yet.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a></h2><p>The third and final supercharged growth stock with the capacity to turn a $300,000 investment into $1 million by 2029 is fintech giant <b>Block</b> (SQ 5.24%).</p><p>Like most high-flying growth stocks, Block has been taken to the woodshed as a result of weakening growth prospects for the U.S. economy and exceptionally high inflation. The latter is particularly worrisome for a digital payments platform, since it threatens to reduce discretionary spending for the lowest decile of earners.</p><p>Yet even with these concerns, Block looks like a screaming buy following a close to 80% pullback from its all-time high.</p><p>The company&#39;s foundational segment continues to be its Square ecosystem. Many of you may recall that Square changed its name to Block in December, but kept the Square name to describe its operating segment that offers digital point-of-sale solutions, loans, and data analytics to merchants. In the June-ended quarter, the Square ecosystem generated $48.3 billion in gross payment volume (GPV). That&#39;s an annualized run-rate of $193 billion. For context, GPV for the full year totaled just $6.5 billion in 2012. That&#39;s how quickly the Square ecosystem has ramped up.</p><p>To add, 39% of the $48.3 billion in second-quarter GPV derived from sellers with at least $500,000 in annualized GPV. That&#39;s up from 27% of total GPV during the comparable quarter in 2020. Because the Square ecosystem is a fee-driven business, attracting larger merchants should lead to substantially higher gross profit.</p><p>But the real cash cow for Block over the long run looks to be digital peer-to-peer payment platform Cash App. In less than five years, Cash App&#39;s active user count has grown from 7 million to 47 million.  Gross profit per Cash App active account has consistently come in many multiples higher than the acquisition cost for each new user. Thus, as Cash App scales, Block recognizes a disproportionately positive boost to its gross profit.</p><p>Perhaps more important, the acquisition of buy now, pay later service Afterpay allows Block to create a closed-loop payment system between Cash App and its Square ecosystem. Connecting the two provides a competitive advantage that could really expand operating margins throughout the decade.</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 Supercharged Growth Stocks That Can Turn $300,000 Into $1 Million by 2029</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Supercharged Growth Stocks That Can Turn $300,000 Into $1 Million by 2029\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-12 11:58 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/11/3-growth-stocks-turn-300000-into-1-million-by-2029/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>This has been one of the toughest years in decades for Wall Street and the investing community.

That's how quickly the Square ecosystem has ramped up.To add, 39% of the $48.3 billion in second-quarter GPV derived from sellers with at least $500,000 in annualized GPV. That's up from 27% of total GPV during the comparable quarter in 2020. Because the Square ecosystem is a fee-driven business, attracting larger merchants should lead to substantially higher gross profit.But the real cash cow for Block over the long run looks to be digital peer-to-peer payment platform Cash App. In less than five years, Cash App's active user count has grown from 7 million to 47 million.  Gross profit per Cash App active account has consistently come in many multiples higher than the acquisition cost for each new user. Thus, as Cash App scales, Block recognizes a disproportionately positive boost to its gross profit.Perhaps more important, the acquisition of buy now, pay later service Afterpay allows Block to create a closed-loop payment system between Cash App and its Square ecosystem. Connecting the two provides a competitive advantage that could really expand operating margins throughout the decade.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":164,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932371963,"gmtCreate":1662883357252,"gmtModify":1676537157635,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"thanks for sharing","listText":"thanks for sharing","text":"thanks for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9932371963","repostId":"2266965998","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2266965998","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1662858023,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2266965998?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-09-11 09:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is the iPhone 14 Worth It?

The iPhone 14 comes in four models: the basic iPhone 14, a &#34;supersized&#34; (Apple&#39;s word) version called the iPhone 14 Plus, and the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max. The basic starts at $799, the Plus starts at $899, the Pro starts at $999 and the Pro Max starts at $1,099.</p><p>All four models boast more advanced front and back cameras and safety features that can detect whether you&#39;ve been in a car crash and help you call 911, even if you&#39;re in an isolated area with limited cell service. The 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus has &#34;the best battery life ever in an iPhone,&#34; the company said.</p><p>All told, the iPhone 14 models &#34;have incredible new features that will help our users in meaningful ways,&#34; Apple chief executive Tim Cook said at Wednesday&#39;s unveiling.</p><p>How meaningful those upgrades really are remains to be seen. But there&#39;s no denying that the birth of the iPhone 15 years ago marked the beginning of a new, more intimate relationship between humans and their phones. Some might say that connection has morphed into codependency; people can&#39;t seem to function without their smartphones.</p><p>Is now the time to take that relationship to the next level and get a new iPhone?</p><h2>Why it matters</h2><p>&#34;I think keeping the price at $799 was a brilliant move on Apple&#39;s part,&#34; said Charles Lindsey, associate professor of Marketing, University at Buffalo School of Management a professor at the University at Buffalo. &#34;By not raising the price, they will not only capture early sales from the Apple innovators/early adopters (who typically buy new versions as soon as possible) but they will also pull in/convert your more mainstream users (who are typically slower to upgrade).&#34;</p><p>The iPhone 14 comes in &#34;stunning&#34; colors including deep purple and starlight. Those pretty hues contrast with some gloomy economic data in the U.S: Record-high inflation has pushed Americans&#39; cost of living way up, home prices and rents have soared, and credit card debt has piled up as pandemic-related government relief has receded. The labor market remains extremely tight, but some companies have been laying off employees or freezing hiring.</p><p>All of that may make consumers skittish about shelling out close to $1,000 on a phone. Which may explain Apple&#39;s decision to keep the base price of the iPhone 14 exactly the same as the starting price for the iPhone 13, unveiled in 2021.</p><p>The price isn&#39;t the only thing that didn&#39;t budge.</p><p>&#34;The base iPhone 14 model is actually almost identical to the 13,&#34; said Melanie Pinola, a senior writer and editor on the smartphone beat at Consumer Reports.</p><p>Based on what Pinola saw at Wednesday&#39;s unveiling, it appears that the iPhone 14 has the same display, processor, overall design and the same battery as the 13. &#34;If you have a 13, I don&#39;t know if I would switch to a 14 this year,&#34; Pinola said. &#34;There are small improvements with the 14, but I wouldn&#39;t say I would rush out right now.&#34;</p><p>The most notable change among the iPhone 14 models is the new larger version, the iPhone 14 Plus, with a 6.7-inch display, which is similar in size to the Samsung  Galaxy S22, Pinola said. &#34;This is the first time that Apple has ever made a large screen phone under $1,000, so it&#39;s more accessible for people who want a larger phone,&#34; Pinola told MarketWatch.</p><h2>The verdict</h2><p>Skip the iPhone 14, unless your existing phone is on life support. &#34;If you&#39;re not able to get security or software updates, it&#39;s definitely time to get a new phone,&#34; Pinola said.</p><h2>My reasons</h2><p>Tech companies have trained us to line up for new products on their schedule. But should Apple dictate when you spend money? Maybe that&#39;s how it became one of the world&#39;s most profitable companies. But blindly following Apple&#39;s marching orders is not how you will become the most profitable version of yourself.</p><h2>Is my verdict best for you?</h2><p>On the other hand, the fact that Apple kept the starting price the same on the iPhone 14 could make an upgrade easier to swallow, said Philip Michaels, U.S. managing editor at the product review site Tom&#39;s Guide.</p><p>&#34;People who bought the iPhone 13 last year are probably still very happy with their phones and will have little reason to upgrade,&#34; Michaels told MarketWatch. &#34;And given Apple&#39;s track record of lengthy software support -- iOS 16 works fine on phones released five years ago -- it&#39;s easy to hold onto your current iPhone for a long time.&#34;</p><p>&#34;That said, if you&#39;ve got an iPhone 11 or earlier, you will definitely notice an improvement in performance, even with the A15 Bionic chip on the iPhone 14 as opposed to the more advanced A16 Bionic powering the Pro models. Cameras figure to produce better results, too, though testing Apple&#39;s new phones will confirm that. Because Apple held the pricing at iPhone 13 levels despite the rumors of price hikes, an upgrade is even easier to justify,&#34; Michaels said.</p><p>Another possible incentive to upgrade: deals available through Apple can cut up to $800 off the price tag of the iPhone 14, and major mobile phone carriers including AT&amp;T <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/T\">$(T)$</a>, T-Mobile <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TMUS\">$(TMUS)$</a> and Verizon <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZ\">$(VZ)$</a>, are offering discounts as well.</p><p>If you&#39;re trying to decide whether to upgrade, don&#39;t forget about the value of your existing phone, said Josh Lowitz co-founder of Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, publisher of the upcoming CIRP-Apple report on Substack.</p><p>&#34;Used iPhones have real value, as trade-ins or hand-me-downs to family or friends,&#34; Lowitz said. &#34;Our data shows that about half of new iPhone buyers trade-in or sell their old phone, and more than a third of those who monetize their old phone, report that it was worth more than $300.&#34;</p><p>Retail promotions, including enhanced trade-in offers, can reduce the cost of ownership further, he noted.</p><p>Another key point: mobile carriers are offering longer payment plans. In the past, phone purchases were generally broken up into 24 or even 18 or 20 payments. Now, 30 and 36 monthly payment plans are common, Lowitz said.</p><p>&#34;That reduces the monthly outlay, though it postpones the relief of making that final payment, and the new phone buyer needs to be confident that their phone will serve them that long. Even with the strong residual value of an iPhone, a buyer with 36 payments may have negative equity in their phone into their third year of ownership,&#34; Lowitz said.</p><p>Apple shares closed almost 1% up Wednesday after the iPhone 14 event, but they are down 12% year to date. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&amp;P 500 are down 13.5% and more than 16%, respectively, this year.</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>Is the iPhone 14 Worth It?

Because Apple held the pricing at iPhone 13 levels despite the rumors of price hikes, an upgrade is even easier to justify,\" Michaels said.Another possible incentive to upgrade: deals available through Apple can cut up to $800 off the price tag of the iPhone 14, and major mobile phone carriers including AT&T $(T)$, T-Mobile $(TMUS)$ and Verizon $(VZ)$, are offering discounts as well.If you're trying to decide whether to upgrade, don't forget about the value of your existing phone, said Josh Lowitz co-founder of Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, publisher of the upcoming CIRP-Apple report on Substack.\"Used iPhones have real value, as trade-ins or hand-me-downs to family or friends,\" Lowitz said. \"Our data shows that about half of new iPhone buyers trade-in or sell their old phone, and more than a third of those who monetize their old phone, report that it was worth more than $300.\"Retail promotions, including enhanced trade-in offers, can reduce the cost of ownership further, he noted.Another key point: mobile carriers are offering longer payment plans. In the past, phone purchases were generally broken up into 24 or even 18 or 20 payments. Now, 30 and 36 monthly payment plans are common, Lowitz said.\"That reduces the monthly outlay, though it postpones the relief of making that final payment, and the new phone buyer needs to be confident that their phone will serve them that long. Even with the strong residual value of an iPhone, a buyer with 36 payments may have negative equity in their phone into their third year of ownership,\" Lowitz said.Apple shares closed almost 1% up Wednesday after the iPhone 14 event, but they are down 12% year to date. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 are down 13.5% and more than 16%, respectively, this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":407,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9938124741,"gmtCreate":1662590360783,"gmtModify":1676537092448,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"nice","listText":"nice","text":"nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9938124741","repostId":"1167636448","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9938936625,"gmtCreate":1662539029167,"gmtModify":1676537083495,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"thanks for sharing","listText":"thanks for sharing","text":"thanks for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9938936625","repostId":"1104877655","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104877655","pubTimestamp":1662517343,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1104877655?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-09-07 10:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How to Invest in Dividend Stocks: A Guide to Dividend Investing","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104877655","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A deep dive into dividend stock investing.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Dividend investing can be a great investment strategy.

Here&#39;s a closer look at how to invest in dividend stocks.</p><p><b>How dividend stocks work</b></p><p>Let&#39;s look at an example. Say you buy 100 shares of a company for $10 each, and each share pays a dividend of $0.30 annually. If you invested $1,000, over the course of a year you would receive $30 in dividend payments.

But a diversified portfolio of dividend stocks can produce reliable income rain or shine.</p><p>Combine those dividends with capital appreciation as the companies you own grow in value, and the total returns can rival, and even exceed, those of the broader market.</p><p><b>Examples of dividend stocks</b></p><p>Here are some well-known companies that have a long history of paying dividends, along with their dividend yields at recent stock prices and the per-share amount of each dividend:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e1d130b631f73d81ba92979b7e348f3\" tg-width=\"1211\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Dividend yield and amount as of Jan. 16, 2022. Dividend amount is most recent per-share quarterly dividend paid.</span></p><p>All three of these companies have increased their stock dividends for more than 50 consecutive years. Because of that, they&#39;re in an elite group of companies known as the Dividend Kings. They&#39;re also part of the Dividend Aristocrats, companies with more than 25 years of consecutive dividend increases. Dividend stocks can come from just about any industry, and the amount of the dividend and percentage yield can vary greatly from one company to the next.</p><p><b>Dividend yield and other key metrics</b></p><p>Before you buy any dividend stocks, it&#39;s important to know how to evaluate them. These metrics can help you understand how much in dividends to expect, how reliable a dividend might be, and, most importantly, how to identify red flags.</p><ul><li><b>Dividend yield:</b> This is the annualized dividend represented as a percentage of the stock price. For instance, if a company pays $1 in annualized dividends and the stock costs $20 per share, then the dividend yield would be 5%. Yield is useful as a valuation metric when you compare a stock&#39;s current yield to its historical levels. A higher-dividend yield is better, all other things being equal, but a company&#39;s ability to maintain the dividend payout -- and, ideally, increase it -- matters even more. However, an abnormally high dividend yield could be a red flag.</li><li><b>Dividend payout ratio:</b> This is the dividend as a percentage of a company&#39;s earnings. If a company earns $1 per share in net income and pays a $0.50-per-share dividend, then the payout ratio is 50%. In general terms, the lower the payout ratio, the more sustainable a dividend should be.</li><li><b>Cash dividend payout ratio:</b> This is the dividend as a percentage of a company&#39;s operating cash flows minus capital expenditures, or free cash flow. This metric is relevant because GAAP net income is not a cash measure, and various non-cash expenses can cause a company&#39;s earnings and its free cash flow to vary significantly from one period to the next. This variability can render a company&#39;s payout ratio misleading at times. Investors can use the cash dividend payout ratio, along with the simple payout ratio, to better understand a dividend&#39;s sustainability.</li><li><b>Total return:</b> This is the increase in stock price (known as capital gains) plus dividends paid. For example, if you pay $10 for a stock that increases in value by $1 and pays a $0.50 dividend, then that $1.50 you&#39;ve gained is equivalent to a 15% total return.</li><li><b>Earnings per share (EPS):</b> The EPS metric normalizes a company&#39;s earnings to the per-share value. The best dividend stocks are companies that have shown the ability to regularly increase earnings per share over time and thus raise their dividend. A history of earnings growth is often evidence of durable competitive advantages.</li><li><b>P/E ratio:</b> The price-to-earnings ratio is calculated by dividing a company&#39;s share price by its earnings per share. The P/E ratio is a metric that can be used along with dividend yield to determine if a dividend stock is fairly valued.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c3955956c0b7e7168f7c097f4d06b8c\" tg-width=\"880\" tg-height=\"689\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image Source: The Motley Fool</span></p><p><b>High yield isn&#39;t everything</b></p><p>Inexperienced dividend investors often make the mistake of buying stocks with the highest dividend yields. While high-yield stocks aren&#39;t bad, high yields can be the result of a stock&#39;s price falling due to the risk of the dividend being cut. That&#39;s called a dividend yield trap.</p><p>Here are some steps you can take to avoid falling for a yield trap:</p><ul><li>Avoid buying stocks based solely on dividend yield. If a company has a significantly higher yield than its peers, that&#39;s often a sign of trouble, not opportunity.</li><li>Use the payout ratios to gauge a dividend&#39;s sustainability.</li><li>Use a company&#39;s dividend history -- of both payout growth and yield -- as a guide.</li><li>Study the balance sheet, including debt, cash, and other assets and liabilities.</li><li>Consider the company and industry itself. Is the company&#39;s business at risk from competitors, weak demand, or some other disruption?</li></ul><p>Sadly, a yield that looks too good to be true often is. It&#39;s better to buy a dividend stock with a lower yield that&#39;s rock-solid than to chase a high yield that may prove illusory. Moreover, focusing on dividend <i>growth</i> -- a company&#39;s history and ability to raise its stock dividend -- often proves more profitable.</p><p><b>How are dividends taxed?</b></p><p>Most dividend stocks pay &#34;qualified&#34; dividends, which, depending on your tax bracket, are taxed at a rate of 0% to 20%. That range is significantly lower than the ordinary income tax rates of 10% to 37% or more. (An additional 3.8% tax is levied on certain investment income for the highest earners.)</p><p>While most dividends qualify for the lower tax rates, some dividends are classified as &#34;ordinary&#34; or non-qualified dividends and are taxed at your marginal tax rate. Several kinds of stocks are structured to pay high dividend yields and may come with higher tax obligations because of their corporate structures. The two most common are real estate investment trusts, or REITs, and master limited partnerships, or MLPs.</p><p>Of course, this extra tax burden doesn&#39;t apply if your dividend stocks are held in a tax-advantaged retirement plan such as an individual retirement account (IRA).

That&#39;s not the case. You should consider buying dividend-paying stocks whenever you start investing to reap their long-term benefits. Dividend stocks, especially those in companies that consistently increase their dividends, have historically outperformed the market with less volatility. Because of that, dividend stocks are a great fit for any portfolio as they can help you build a diversified portfolio.</p><p>There are a few dividend strategies to consider. The first is to build a dividend portfolio as part of your overall portfolio. When you&#39;re building a dividend portfolio, it&#39;s important to remember that paying dividends isn&#39;t obligatory for a company in the same way that companies must make interest payments on bonds.

Last year, and the year before, saw record-breaking and record-setting numbers, in total number of public offerings, and in capital raised, but that blistering pace has slowed down this year.The first half of 2022 saw a mere 92 IPOs raise some $9 billion, and analysts are projecting that this year will see a total of 184 companies go public through initial offerings. For comparison, just the first quarter of 2021 saw 395 IPOs raise a total of $140 billion. The drop-off is clear.The slowing IPO activity can be traced back to the 6 month bear market we went through in 1H22, to the increased market uncertainty and the overall economic downturn. In such an environment, start-up firms are more reluctant to enter the public markets, and investors are more cautious about where they put their money. From both sides, we’re more likely to find a ‘wait and see’ attitude, as companies and investors watch to see how the markets will shake out.From the investor’s perspective, what all of this really means is that the homework is now more important than ever. Learning the details of the IPO before the event and finding the firms with strong underwriting for the offering are good first steps. They can be followed by checking in with the Street’s analysts – these are the objective professionals who publish regular research notes on the stock markets, and their research can point the way toward hidden gems.We’ve opened up the TipRanks database to find 3 recent IPO stocks that the analysts say are looking up. These are all companies that went public in May of this year, but have since picked up some Street love. Here are the details, along with the analysts’ commentary.PepGen, Inc. (PEPG)We’ll start in the biotechnology sector, where PepGen is a clinical-stage firm working on oligonucleotide therapeutics, a new generation of drug candidates that promise to transform the way we treat severe neuromuscular and neurological diseases. The company uses a proprietary development platform, based on Enhanced Delivery Oligonucleotides (EDOs), to create a line of drug candidates; these are now entering clinical trials.The leading candidate, PGN-EDO51, is under investigation as a treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and the company started dosing patients in a Phase 1 study this past April. The current trial is focused on healthy normal volunteers, testing safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics. The company expects to release data by the end of this year.The company’s second leading drug candidate is PGN-EDODM1, a potential treatment for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). It showed promise in preclinical testing, and the company is planning an IND submission during 1H23, in advance of initiating a Phase 1/2 clinical trial.PepGen has another three drug candidates in the discovery and preclinical phases – but the shift to human clinical trials is expensive. To raise the capital for that, the company held its IPO in May of this year. The event saw the PEPG ticker start trading on May 6, with initial pricing at $12 per share and first-day’s close at $12.89. The IPO successfully raised the $108 million expected, although the shares have fallen by 24% since then.SVB analyst Joseph Schwartz covers this relatively new stock, and he sees the leading drug candidates as superior to competitors’ assets, writing, “We view PEPG's lead candidate — PGNEDO51 for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients with Exon 51 mutations — as de-risked based on clinical data from SRPT's SRP-5051…. PGN-EDO51's Ph.1 healthy volunteer readout is guided to occur by year-end and will include safety, PK and exon 51 skipping data. We view this as an underappreciated catalyst that will establish baseline expectations for patients and also has potential to demonstrate PGN-EDO51's best-in-class capabilities when compared to SRP-5051's HV study results…. We note that DM1 represents a large market opportunity — we currently model peak (2035E) gross WW sales of ~$730M for PGN-EDO51 and ~$2.5bn for PGN-EDODM1.”Schwartz gives PEPG shares an Outperform (Buy) rating, along with a $40 price target that implies a one-year upside potential of a huge 309%.Over the past 3 months, 3 analysts have weighed in on this stock, and they are all positive, giving it a unanimous Strong Buy consensus rating. The shares are selling for $9.78 and their $27 average target indicates a strong 176% upside for the coming year. (See PepGen’s stock forecast at TipRanks.)ProFrac Holding Corporation (PFHC)Next on our list, ProFrac, is a holding company whose subsidiaries offer a range of services and solutions to the North American hydrocarbon industry. ProFrac’s offerings include services and products to enable hydraulic fracturing and well completion services in both the oil and gas exploration and production sectors.Back in May, the PFHC ticker hit the markets through an IPO that opened on the 13th of the month. The stock closed that day at $18.11, a shade above the $18 opening price. The company successfully raised $441.6 million through the IPO, and since the first day’s close, the shares are up 9%.Last month, ProFrac released its second quarterly financial report as a public entity – and the first one to show results achieved since the firm went public. The 2Q22 report showed a top line quarter-over-quarter gain of 40%, with revenues coming in at $589.8 million. Net income was reported at $70.1 million, and the company reported a cash position of $73.7 million as of June 30. Overall, the company reported $88 million in total liquidity at the end of Q2.Stephen Gengaro, 5-star analyst with Stifel, was duly impressed by this company’s performance ‘out of the gate,’ and notes the quarterly results as key points in his review of the stock: “Bolstered by strong pressure pumping fundamentals, solid execution, and the positive benefits of its vertical integration, ProFrac delivered its second consecutive upside surprise since its IPO…. We continue to expect strong pressure pumping fundamentals to drive rising profitability at least through 2023, and likely longer.”Gengaro rates these shares as a Buy and gives a target price of $29, implying a potential upside of 46% on the one-year horizon.This energy/industrial stock has gotten attention from 7 Wall Street analysts, and their reviews include 6 to Buy and 1 to Hold, for a Strong Buy consensus rating. The current trading price of $19.79 and the average price target of $26.93 combine to give a 36% upside in the next 12 months.Hanover Bancorp, Inc. (HNVR)For our last stock, we’ll shift focus again – this time, to the financial world. Hanover Bancorp was established recently, in 2009, as a one-bank holding company; that is, it’s sole subsidiary is Hanover Community Bank, a small bank with some $1.6 billion in assets and operations in New York/New Jersey. Hanover Bank has 8 physical branches, in metropolitan NYC, on Long Island, and in Freehold, New Jersey.Like many local banks, Hanover provides full services to smaller customers, including retail and small business clients. Services include checking and saving accounts, debit cards, money markets and CDs, banking advisory services, personal and business loans, mortgages, and online and mobile banking.Hanover Bancorp held its IPO from May 11 to May 13, with the stock opening on May 11 at $21; since then, the shares have dropped a little - by ~5%.On June 30, the company ended its 3Q of fiscal year 2022, with net income of $5.3 million, or 80 cents per diluted share. This compares to a year-ago result of just $221,000 and 5 cents per diluted share; the y/y jump is substantial. Revenue also increased substantially, by 50% from the same period last year to $16.65 million. The company’s $1.6 billion in assets are up from $1.54 billion at the end of the year-ago quarter. These assets included $133 million in cash.Banks and bank holding companies typically pay out regular dividends, and Hanover Bancorp has paid out three common share divs, in February, June, and August of this year. The payments, of 10 cents per common share, annualize to 40 cents and give a yield of 2%, almost exactly the average dividend found among peer companies.Covering this stock for Piper Sandler, analyst Mark Fitzgibbon sees this bank’s loan performance as the differentiator. Following the FQ3 print, he wrote, “Total loan balances grew 10% Q/Q, while total balance sheet footings rose 9% from the linked quarter. Loan growth from the linked quarter was seen across each of their three major loan buckets: Multifamily (+23% Q/Q), commercial real estate (+11% Q/Q), and residential mortgages (+2% Q/Q). Each of these loan categories represent >25% of their calendar 2Q22 loan portfolio composition. Our conversations with management lead us to believe Hanover will benefit from a strong pipeline in 3Q22. We think residential mortgage could see better growth than other loan categories as they look to further diversify the balance sheet.”In Fitzgibbon’s view, this justifies an Overweight (Buy) rating, and his price target, set at $26, suggests room for 30% share appreciation in the year ahead.While there are only 2 recent reviews of this new bank holding company, they both agree that it’s a Buy, making the Moderate Buy rating unanimous. Shares in HNVR are priced at $20.01 while the $25.75 average price target is almost identical to Fitzgibbon’s objective.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":384,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9993365721,"gmtCreate":1660628094965,"gmtModify":1676536368839,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good","listText":"good","text":"good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9993365721","repostId":"1147803284","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147803284","pubTimestamp":1660622142,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1147803284?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-16 11:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The 5 Top Stocks Cathie Wood Is Buying Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147803284","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Cathie Wood believes deflation will be a greater risk than inflation in the coming months.Companies ","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Cathie Wood believes deflation will be a greater risk than inflation in the coming months.</li><li>Companies recently purchased by <b>Ark Invest</b> include <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVTA\">Invitae</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TDOC\">Teladoc</a>.</li><li>Shares of Wood&#39;s flagship fund, the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">ARK Innovation ETF</a>, are down more than 40% year-to-date.</li></ul><p>Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest has performed well recently, with shares of her flagship exchange-traded fund (ETF), the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">ARK Innovation ETF</a>, up more than 15% during the past month. The performance was driven by the release of July’s consumer price index (CPI) report. The report revealed that inflation rose by 0% month-over-month (MOM) and by 8.5% year-over-year (YOY). Meanwhile, economists were expecting a YOY increase of 8.7% and a MOM increase of 0.2%.</p><p>Woodexpects further decreasesin inflation. The Ark Founder explained, “We will be talking about deflation being a greater risk in the next three to six months. Innovation results in deflation. One of the metrics that have been very telling .. is long term Treasury yields… The bond market is expecting growth to surprise on the low side.”</p><p>She cited the 10-year Treasury yield’s difficulty in staying above 3% as a sign that current rates of inflation are unsustainable. In addition, she believes that falling gas prices are a sign that prices may be easing.</p><h3>5 Cathie Wood Stocks Ark Is Buying Now</h3><h3>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVTA\">Invitae </a></h3><p>Invitae has experienced volatile price action since reporting its Q2 earnings on Aug. 9. The following day, shares of NVTA closed higher by a mind-boggling 238%. The genetics testing company posted revenue of $136.6 million, up more than 17% year-over-year. But it still fell short of estimates by just 0.62%. On the other hand, earnings per share came in at loss of 68 cents, beating the estimate for a loss of 74 cents.</p><p>The company’s earnings report did not seem substantial enough to sustain a 238% gain, which had investors speculating that a short squeeze was taking place. As of July 31, 23.1% of the public float was sold short, equating to a monetary volume of $98.38 million. The high short interest was significant enough to drive a short squeeze, paired with investors bidding up the price.</p><p>Wood reported purchasing NVTA the day prior to its earnings report. On Aug. 8, ARKK scooped up 186,884 shares, while the ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (BATS:ARKG) picked up 626,059 shares. After the purchases, Invitae is now the 45th largest holding among all ARK ETFs out of 51 total.</p><h3>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TDOC\">Teladoc </a></h3><p>Ark has now purchased shares of Teladoc (NYSE:TDOC) for three consecutive weeks. From Aug. 8 to Aug. 11, 445,481 shares were purchased through four ARK ETFs, including — oddly enough — the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (NYSEMKT:ARKF). After the purchases, Ark owns a total of 30.6 million shares, making it the largest shareholder by a wide margin.</p><p>Shares of TDOC stock have fallen lower by more than 50% year-to-date, offering a discount opportunity for Ark. On Aug. 11, DA Davidson initiated coverage of the company with a $45 price target. Analyst Robert Simmons characterized the company as a leader in the telehealth space with a variety of offerings. Shares have fallen by more than 85% from the high of $308, although Simmons believes this is an “over-correction.” The analyst adds that the current rate of revenue and free cash flow margin growth should provide significant upside.</p><h3>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">Roblox </a></h3><p>On Aug. 10, Ark purchased 44,048 shares of Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) through two of its ETFs. This was Ark’s first purchase of RBLX since June 9. Ark purchased shares after the metaverse company reported Q2 earnings on Aug. 9, causing shares to plunge lower by more than 10%. Revenue tallied in at $639.9 million, falling short of the analyst estimate of $644.4 million. Earnings per share fell short as well, coming in at a loss of 30 cents versus the expectation for a loss of 21 cents. The EPS figure equated to a net loss of $176.4 million.</p><p>Meanwhile, average daily active users (DAUs) clocked in at 52.2 million, coming in below the analyst estimate by about a million users. During Q1, the company reported 54.1 million average DAUs. Despite the misses on several metrics, RBLX stock has since recovered all of the losses attributed to its earnings report, leading investors to believe that the worst may have already been priced in.</p><h3>4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MKFG\">Markforged </a></h3><p>Wood has now purchased shares of Markforged (NYSE:MKFG) for two consecutive weeks, even after the company reported its earnings on Aug. 11. The company operates as a 3D printing and materials provider.</p><p>Revenue rose by 19% YOY to $24.2 million, while net profit rose to $4.1 million, up from a net loss of $11.1 million a year ago. On the other hand, gross margin declined to 53% from 58% a year ago. CEO Shai Terem added:</p><p>“We continue to make great strides in executing on our strategy thanks to great efforts from our talented team. We feel very confident in our long-term opportunity to extend our leadership position in distributed manufacturing as our product portfolio grows and evolves.”</p><p>From Aug. 8 to Aug. 12, two ARK ETFs purchased 575,458 shares of MKFG. The largest purchase within that period occurred after earnings on Aug. 12, when 396,856 shares were purchased in a single day. In the month of August, Ark has purchased MKFG on 18 separate occasions.</p><h3>5. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FATE\">Fate Therapeutics </a></h3><p>From Aug. 11 to Aug. 12, two ARK ETFs purchased 632,542 shares of Fate Therapeutics (NASDAQ:FATE). Interestingly enough, it appears that Wood may have had a quick change of heart, as ARKK sold 307,711 shares on Aug. 8. The recent purchases were the company’s first purchases of FATE since Feb. 25.</p><p>Fate operates as a clinical stage biotechnology company that utilizes cellular immunotherapies to treat patients with cancer and immune disorders.

The performance was driven by the release of July’s consumer price index (CPI) report. The report revealed that inflation rose by 0% month-over-month (MOM) and by 8.5% year-over-year (YOY). Meanwhile, economists were expecting a YOY increase of 8.7% and a MOM increase of 0.2%.Woodexpects further decreasesin inflation. The Ark Founder explained, “We will be talking about deflation being a greater risk in the next three to six months. Innovation results in deflation. One of the metrics that have been very telling .. is long term Treasury yields… The bond market is expecting growth to surprise on the low side.”She cited the 10-year Treasury yield’s difficulty in staying above 3% as a sign that current rates of inflation are unsustainable. In addition, she believes that falling gas prices are a sign that prices may be easing.5 Cathie Wood Stocks Ark Is Buying Now1. Invitae Invitae has experienced volatile price action since reporting its Q2 earnings on Aug. 9. The following day, shares of NVTA closed higher by a mind-boggling 238%. The genetics testing company posted revenue of $136.6 million, up more than 17% year-over-year. But it still fell short of estimates by just 0.62%. On the other hand, earnings per share came in at loss of 68 cents, beating the estimate for a loss of 74 cents.The company’s earnings report did not seem substantial enough to sustain a 238% gain, which had investors speculating that a short squeeze was taking place. As of July 31, 23.1% of the public float was sold short, equating to a monetary volume of $98.38 million. The high short interest was significant enough to drive a short squeeze, paired with investors bidding up the price.Wood reported purchasing NVTA the day prior to its earnings report. On Aug. 8, ARKK scooped up 186,884 shares, while the ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (BATS:ARKG) picked up 626,059 shares. After the purchases, Invitae is now the 45th largest holding among all ARK ETFs out of 51 total.2. Teladoc Ark has now purchased shares of Teladoc (NYSE:TDOC) for three consecutive weeks. From Aug. 8 to Aug. 11, 445,481 shares were purchased through four ARK ETFs, including — oddly enough — the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (NYSEMKT:ARKF). After the purchases, Ark owns a total of 30.6 million shares, making it the largest shareholder by a wide margin.Shares of TDOC stock have fallen lower by more than 50% year-to-date, offering a discount opportunity for Ark. On Aug. 11, DA Davidson initiated coverage of the company with a $45 price target. Analyst Robert Simmons characterized the company as a leader in the telehealth space with a variety of offerings. Shares have fallen by more than 85% from the high of $308, although Simmons believes this is an “over-correction.” The analyst adds that the current rate of revenue and free cash flow margin growth should provide significant upside.3. Roblox On Aug. 10, Ark purchased 44,048 shares of Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) through two of its ETFs. This was Ark’s first purchase of RBLX since June 9. Ark purchased shares after the metaverse company reported Q2 earnings on Aug. 9, causing shares to plunge lower by more than 10%. Revenue tallied in at $639.9 million, falling short of the analyst estimate of $644.4 million. Earnings per share fell short as well, coming in at a loss of 30 cents versus the expectation for a loss of 21 cents. The EPS figure equated to a net loss of $176.4 million.Meanwhile, average daily active users (DAUs) clocked in at 52.2 million, coming in below the analyst estimate by about a million users. During Q1, the company reported 54.1 million average DAUs. Despite the misses on several metrics, RBLX stock has since recovered all of the losses attributed to its earnings report, leading investors to believe that the worst may have already been priced in.4. Markforged Wood has now purchased shares of Markforged (NYSE:MKFG) for two consecutive weeks, even after the company reported its earnings on Aug. 11. The company operates as a 3D printing and materials provider.Revenue rose by 19% YOY to $24.2 million, while net profit rose to $4.1 million, up from a net loss of $11.1 million a year ago. On the other hand, gross margin declined to 53% from 58% a year ago. CEO Shai Terem added:“We continue to make great strides in executing on our strategy thanks to great efforts from our talented team. We feel very confident in our long-term opportunity to extend our leadership position in distributed manufacturing as our product portfolio grows and evolves.”From Aug. 8 to Aug. 12, two ARK ETFs purchased 575,458 shares of MKFG. The largest purchase within that period occurred after earnings on Aug. 12, when 396,856 shares were purchased in a single day. In the month of August, Ark has purchased MKFG on 18 separate occasions.5. Fate Therapeutics From Aug. 11 to Aug. 12, two ARK ETFs purchased 632,542 shares of Fate Therapeutics (NASDAQ:FATE). Interestingly enough, it appears that Wood may have had a quick change of heart, as ARKK sold 307,711 shares on Aug. 8. The recent purchases were the company’s first purchases of FATE since Feb. 25.Fate operates as a clinical stage biotechnology company that utilizes cellular immunotherapies to treat patients with cancer and immune disorders. During Q2, the company reported revenue of $18.5 million, up 38% YOY. Fate also announced an expanded collaboration with Ono Pharmaceutical (OTCMKTS:OPHLY) to advance its second solid tumor program.While the company remains unprofitable, it still has seven proprietary cell therapy candidates in its product pipeline. Wood’s recent purchases may be a stamp of conviction for the potential of Fate’s pipeline.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":577,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9905980441,"gmtCreate":1659795735984,"gmtModify":1703766600737,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9905980441","repostId":"1165908204","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1165908204","pubTimestamp":1659788153,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1165908204?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-06 20:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Berkshire Hathaway Scales Back Share Repurchases to $1.0B, Operating Earnings Gain","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1165908204","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B) (BRK.B) Q2 operating earnings rose 32% from the previous quarter and","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B) (BRK.B) Q2 operating earnings rose 32% from the previous quarter and 39% from a year ago, on strength from all its major operating divisions.

It’s more durable than previous models and has a new temperature sensor the company will use to help track women’s health including ovulation.It will come in four colors in aluminum — black, gold, aluminum, and red — and three colors in stainless steel. It costs at least $399 for an aluminum model and $499 for one with cellular connectivity.Apple says that the device is designed to keep data secure and private and that health data will only be shared with explicit permission from the user.Apple also added new safety features powered by two motion sensors. The new car crash detection that can detect if you were in a severe car crash and automatically call emergency services.A new mode on Apple Watches can extend the Apple Watch battery life from 18 hours to 36 hours by temporarily disabling the always-on display and workout notifications.Cook started by airing a video highlighting letters people have written to him about how the wearable has helped them get help in emergency situations.Moreover, Apple has announced a redesigned Apple Watch SE, which is a lower-cost version of its mainline Series 8.This year’s model includes:A bigger screenA new plastic design on the underside of the watchHeart rate notificationsFall detectionIt will retail for either $249 or $299 starting on Sept. 16. Apple is marketing it as a device for children who might not need their own iPhone.Also, it announced the Apple Watch Ultra, new high-end watch with a new design, bigger screen, and titanium case. The product is aimed at outdoor athletes.It will cost at least $799 and will hit store shelves on Sept. 23.

It can also show how deep the user is diving under the water while swimming.Apple says that the watch can get as many as 60 hours of battery life with a software update this fall.“Every detail has been engineered to make the most rugged and capable than ever,” Apple COO Jeff Williams said in a promo video.AirPods ProApple CEO Tim Cook announced a new model of Apple’s AirPods Pro, which wireless earbuds with noise-cancelling.They cost $249 and will go on sale on Sept 23.They have better sound quality and clarity, Apple said, due to an Apple H2 chip on the inside, an upgrade from the earlier model’s H1.New features include:New touch control to adjust volumeLonger battery life with up to 6 hours listening timeA smaller extra-small ear tipA speaker added to the caseCan be charged with MagSafe chargers.Apple said that the noise cancellation on the new models is twice as good as before.iPhone 14, 14 Plus and 14 ProApple CEO Tim Cook announced the iPhone 14. So far, Apple has announced two new models— an iPhone 14 Plus and an iPhone 14.The iPhone 14 Plus replaces the older “iPhone 13 mini” model with a bigger model with a 6.7-inch screen.The iPhone 14 will start at $799 and the Plus will cost $899. Preorders start on Sept 9 and the smaller version will go on sale on Sept. 16.

It’s free for iPhone 14 users in the U.S. and Canada and launches in Canada.It announced a long-rumored capability to connect its iPhone 14 series to satellites for emergency services during its event on Wednesday.The feature is designed to connect an iPhone 14′s antennas directly to a satellite, to send a message in areas unconnected by cell towers.Apple’s manager of satellite modeling and simulation Ashley Williams said an algorithm in the phone compresses text messages to a size that will “take less than 15 seconds to send” to a satellite, before its relayed to a ground station and on to an emergency service provider.The emergency satellite service launches in November, and is included free for two years with an iPhone 14.Satellite communications — which has several existing networks that support specialized, purpose-built phones — is undergoing a new era of investment. Companies including Elon Musk’s SpaceX and AST SpaceMobile have previously announced partnerships with mobile service providers, with a similar goal of providing similar satellite services directly to traditional consumer smartphones.Also, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the iPhone 14 pro, the high-end models for this year.The smaller model with a 6.1-inch screen is called the iPhone 14 Pro. The bigger model will be called the iPhone 14 Max.The iPhone 14 Pro will start at $999, and the bigger model starts at $1099. That’s the same price as last year’s models.

Apple calls the cutout a “dynamic island” and it can essentially display notifications or other system information, such as baseball scores.The iPhone 14 Pro has a lot of new features:An always-on display which doesn’t turn off when it’s not in use.Apple also introduced a new low-power mode to make the battery life last longer.It uses Apple’s latest A16 Bionic chip, which Apple says was built on a 4-nanometer process.A 48-megapixel camera thanks to a bigger sensor.Better low-light photography.Redesigned flash.It comes in four colors, space black, silver, gold, and deep purple.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9905980441,"gmtCreate":1659795735984,"gmtModify":1703766600737,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9905980441","repostId":"1165908204","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":362,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932549258,"gmtCreate":1662962894274,"gmtModify":1676537172610,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good","listText":"good","text":"good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9932549258","repostId":"2266642063","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":164,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9909427104,"gmtCreate":1658910811908,"gmtModify":1676536227803,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"dividend coming soon","listText":"dividend coming soon","text":"dividend coming soon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9909427104","repostId":"1110753141","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9993365721,"gmtCreate":1660628094965,"gmtModify":1676536368839,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good","listText":"good","text":"good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9993365721","repostId":"1147803284","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":577,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932371963,"gmtCreate":1662883357252,"gmtModify":1676537157635,"author":{"id":"4120219475871102","authorId":"4120219475871102","name":"tslim","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"thanks for sharing","listText":"thanks for sharing","text":"thanks for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9932371963","repostId":"2266965998","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2266965998","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1662858023,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2266965998?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-09-11 09:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is the iPhone 14 Worth It?

The iPhone 14 comes in four models: the basic iPhone 14, a &#34;supersized&#34; (Apple&#39;s word) version called the iPhone 14 Plus, and the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max. The basic starts at $799, the Plus starts at $899, the Pro starts at $999 and the Pro Max starts at $1,099.</p><p>All four models boast more advanced front and back cameras and safety features that can detect whether you&#39;ve been in a car crash and help you call 911, even if you&#39;re in an isolated area with limited cell service. The 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus has &#34;the best battery life ever in an iPhone,&#34; the company said.</p><p>All told, the iPhone 14 models &#34;have incredible new features that will help our users in meaningful ways,&#34; Apple chief executive Tim Cook said at Wednesday&#39;s unveiling.</p><p>How meaningful those upgrades really are remains to be seen. But there&#39;s no denying that the birth of the iPhone 15 years ago marked the beginning of a new, more intimate relationship between humans and their phones. Some might say that connection has morphed into codependency; people can&#39;t seem to function without their smartphones.</p><p>Is now the time to take that relationship to the next level and get a new iPhone?</p><h2>Why it matters</h2><p>&#34;I think keeping the price at $799 was a brilliant move on Apple&#39;s part,&#34; said Charles Lindsey, associate professor of Marketing, University at Buffalo School of Management a professor at the University at Buffalo. &#34;By not raising the price, they will not only capture early sales from the Apple innovators/early adopters (who typically buy new versions as soon as possible) but they will also pull in/convert your more mainstream users (who are typically slower to upgrade).&#34;</p><p>The iPhone 14 comes in &#34;stunning&#34; colors including deep purple and starlight. Those pretty hues contrast with some gloomy economic data in the U.S: Record-high inflation has pushed Americans&#39; cost of living way up, home prices and rents have soared, and credit card debt has piled up as pandemic-related government relief has receded. The labor market remains extremely tight, but some companies have been laying off employees or freezing hiring.</p><p>All of that may make consumers skittish about shelling out close to $1,000 on a phone. Which may explain Apple&#39;s decision to keep the base price of the iPhone 14 exactly the same as the starting price for the iPhone 13, unveiled in 2021.</p><p>The price isn&#39;t the only thing that didn&#39;t budge.</p><p>&#34;The base iPhone 14 model is actually almost identical to the 13,&#34; said Melanie Pinola, a senior writer and editor on the smartphone beat at Consumer Reports.</p><p>Based on what Pinola saw at Wednesday&#39;s unveiling, it appears that the iPhone 14 has the same display, processor, overall design and the same battery as the 13. &#34;If you have a 13, I don&#39;t know if I would switch to a 14 this year,&#34; Pinola said. &#34;There are small improvements with the 14, but I wouldn&#39;t say I would rush out right now.&#34;</p><p>The most notable change among the iPhone 14 models is the new larger version, the iPhone 14 Plus, with a 6.7-inch display, which is similar in size to the Samsung  Galaxy S22, Pinola said. &#34;This is the first time that Apple has ever made a large screen phone under $1,000, so it&#39;s more accessible for people who want a larger phone,&#34; Pinola told MarketWatch.</p><h2>The verdict</h2><p>Skip the iPhone 14, unless your existing phone is on life support. &#34;If you&#39;re not able to get security or software updates, it&#39;s definitely time to get a new phone,&#34; Pinola said.</p><h2>My reasons</h2><p>Tech companies have trained us to line up for new products on their schedule. But should Apple dictate when you spend money? Maybe that&#39;s how it became one of the world&#39;s most profitable companies. But blindly following Apple&#39;s marching orders is not how you will become the most profitable version of yourself.</p><h2>Is my verdict best for you?</h2><p>On the other hand, the fact that Apple kept the starting price the same on the iPhone 14 could make an upgrade easier to swallow, said Philip Michaels, U.S. managing editor at the product review site Tom&#39;s Guide.</p><p>&#34;People who bought the iPhone 13 last year are probably still very happy with their phones and will have little reason to upgrade,&#34; Michaels told MarketWatch. &#34;And given Apple&#39;s track record of lengthy software support -- iOS 16 works fine on phones released five years ago -- it&#39;s easy to hold onto your current iPhone for a long time.&#34;</p><p>&#34;That said, if you&#39;ve got an iPhone 11 or earlier, you will definitely notice an improvement in performance, even with the A15 Bionic chip on the iPhone 14 as opposed to the more advanced A16 Bionic powering the Pro models. Cameras figure to produce better results, too, though testing Apple&#39;s new phones will confirm that. Because Apple held the pricing at iPhone 13 levels despite the rumors of price hikes, an upgrade is even easier to justify,&#34; Michaels said.</p><p>Another possible incentive to upgrade: deals available through Apple can cut up to $800 off the price tag of the iPhone 14, and major mobile phone carriers including AT&amp;T <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/T\">$(T)$</a>, T-Mobile <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TMUS\">$(TMUS)$</a> and Verizon <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZ\">$(VZ)$</a>, are offering discounts as well.</p><p>If you&#39;re trying to decide whether to upgrade, don&#39;t forget about the value of your existing phone, said Josh Lowitz co-founder of Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, publisher of the upcoming CIRP-Apple report on Substack.</p><p>&#34;Used iPhones have real value, as trade-ins or hand-me-downs to family or friends,&#34; Lowitz said. &#34;Our data shows that about half of new iPhone buyers trade-in or sell their old phone, and more than a third of those who monetize their old phone, report that it was worth more than $300.&#34;</p><p>Retail promotions, including enhanced trade-in offers, can reduce the cost of ownership further, he noted.</p><p>Another key point: mobile carriers are offering longer payment plans. In the past, phone purchases were generally broken up into 24 or even 18 or 20 payments. Now, 30 and 36 monthly payment plans are common, Lowitz said.</p><p>&#34;That reduces the monthly outlay, though it postpones the relief of making that final payment, and the new phone buyer needs to be confident that their phone will serve them that long. Even with the strong residual value of an iPhone, a buyer with 36 payments may have negative equity in their phone into their third year of ownership,&#34; Lowitz said.</p><p>Apple shares closed almost 1% up Wednesday after the iPhone 14 event, but they are down 12% year to date. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&amp;P 500 are down 13.5% and more than 16%, respectively, this year.</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>Is the iPhone 14 Worth It?

Dividend stocks have historically outperformed the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> with less volatility. That&#39;s because dividend stocks provide two sources of return: regular income from dividend payments and capital appreciation of the stock price. This total return can add up over time.</p><p>Because of their lower volatility, dividend stocks often appeal to investors looking for lower-risk investments, especially those in or nearing retirement. But dividend stocks can still be risky if you don&#39;t know what to avoid. Here&#39;s a closer look at how to invest in dividend stocks.</p><p><b>How dividend stocks work</b></p><p>Let&#39;s look at an example. Say you buy 100 shares of a company for $10 each, and each share pays a dividend of $0.30 annually. If you invested $1,000, over the course of a year you would receive $30 in dividend payments. That works out to a 3% yield -- not too shabby.</p><p>What you choose to do with your dividends is up to you. You can:</p><ul><li>Reinvest them to buy more shares of the company.</li><li>Buy stock in a different company.</li><li>Save the cash.</li><li>Spend the money.</li></ul><p>Regardless of whether the company&#39;s stock price goes up or down, you would receive those dividend payments as long as the company continues to disburse them.</p><p>The beauty of stocks that pay dividends is that part of your return includes predictable quarterly payments. Not every company offering dividend stocks can maintain a dividend payout in every economic environment, which the COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated. But a diversified portfolio of dividend stocks can produce reliable income rain or shine.</p><p>Combine those dividends with capital appreciation as the companies you own grow in value, and the total returns can rival, and even exceed, those of the broader market.</p><p><b>Examples of dividend stocks</b></p><p>Here are some well-known companies that have a long history of paying dividends, along with their dividend yields at recent stock prices and the per-share amount of each dividend:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e1d130b631f73d81ba92979b7e348f3\" tg-width=\"1211\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Dividend yield and amount as of Jan. 16, 2022. Dividend amount is most recent per-share quarterly dividend paid.</span></p><p>All three of these companies have increased their stock dividends for more than 50 consecutive years. Because of that, they&#39;re in an elite group of companies known as the Dividend Kings. They&#39;re also part of the Dividend Aristocrats, companies with more than 25 years of consecutive dividend increases. Dividend stocks can come from just about any industry, and the amount of the dividend and percentage yield can vary greatly from one company to the next.</p><p><b>Dividend yield and other key metrics</b></p><p>Before you buy any dividend stocks, it&#39;s important to know how to evaluate them. These metrics can help you understand how much in dividends to expect, how reliable a dividend might be, and, most importantly, how to identify red flags.</p><ul><li><b>Dividend yield:</b> This is the annualized dividend represented as a percentage of the stock price. For instance, if a company pays $1 in annualized dividends and the stock costs $20 per share, then the dividend yield would be 5%. Yield is useful as a valuation metric when you compare a stock&#39;s current yield to its historical levels. A higher-dividend yield is better, all other things being equal, but a company&#39;s ability to maintain the dividend payout -- and, ideally, increase it -- matters even more. However, an abnormally high dividend yield could be a red flag.</li><li><b>Dividend payout ratio:</b> This is the dividend as a percentage of a company&#39;s earnings. If a company earns $1 per share in net income and pays a $0.50-per-share dividend, then the payout ratio is 50%. In general terms, the lower the payout ratio, the more sustainable a dividend should be.</li><li><b>Cash dividend payout ratio:</b> This is the dividend as a percentage of a company&#39;s operating cash flows minus capital expenditures, or free cash flow. This metric is relevant because GAAP net income is not a cash measure, and various non-cash expenses can cause a company&#39;s earnings and its free cash flow to vary significantly from one period to the next. This variability can render a company&#39;s payout ratio misleading at times. Investors can use the cash dividend payout ratio, along with the simple payout ratio, to better understand a dividend&#39;s sustainability.</li><li><b>Total return:</b> This is the increase in stock price (known as capital gains) plus dividends paid. For example, if you pay $10 for a stock that increases in value by $1 and pays a $0.50 dividend, then that $1.50 you&#39;ve gained is equivalent to a 15% total return.</li><li><b>Earnings per share (EPS):</b> The EPS metric normalizes a company&#39;s earnings to the per-share value. The best dividend stocks are companies that have shown the ability to regularly increase earnings per share over time and thus raise their dividend. A history of earnings growth is often evidence of durable competitive advantages.</li><li><b>P/E ratio:</b> The price-to-earnings ratio is calculated by dividing a company&#39;s share price by its earnings per share. The P/E ratio is a metric that can be used along with dividend yield to determine if a dividend stock is fairly valued.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c3955956c0b7e7168f7c097f4d06b8c\" tg-width=\"880\" tg-height=\"689\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image Source: The Motley Fool</span></p><p><b>High yield isn&#39;t everything</b></p><p>Inexperienced dividend investors often make the mistake of buying stocks with the highest dividend yields. While high-yield stocks aren&#39;t bad, high yields can be the result of a stock&#39;s price falling due to the risk of the dividend being cut. That&#39;s called a dividend yield trap.</p><p>Here are some steps you can take to avoid falling for a yield trap:</p><ul><li>Avoid buying stocks based solely on dividend yield. If a company has a significantly higher yield than its peers, that&#39;s often a sign of trouble, not opportunity.</li><li>Use the payout ratios to gauge a dividend&#39;s sustainability.</li><li>Use a company&#39;s dividend history -- of both payout growth and yield -- as a guide.</li><li>Study the balance sheet, including debt, cash, and other assets and liabilities.</li><li>Consider the company and industry itself. Is the company&#39;s business at risk from competitors, weak demand, or some other disruption?</li></ul><p>Sadly, a yield that looks too good to be true often is. It&#39;s better to buy a dividend stock with a lower yield that&#39;s rock-solid than to chase a high yield that may prove illusory. Moreover, focusing on dividend <i>growth</i> -- a company&#39;s history and ability to raise its stock dividend -- often proves more profitable.</p><p><b>How are dividends taxed?</b></p><p>Most dividend stocks pay &#34;qualified&#34; dividends, which, depending on your tax bracket, are taxed at a rate of 0% to 20%. That range is significantly lower than the ordinary income tax rates of 10% to 37% or more. (An additional 3.8% tax is levied on certain investment income for the highest earners.)</p><p>While most dividends qualify for the lower tax rates, some dividends are classified as &#34;ordinary&#34; or non-qualified dividends and are taxed at your marginal tax rate. Several kinds of stocks are structured to pay high dividend yields and may come with higher tax obligations because of their corporate structures. The two most common are real estate investment trusts, or REITs, and master limited partnerships, or MLPs.</p><p>Of course, this extra tax burden doesn&#39;t apply if your dividend stocks are held in a tax-advantaged retirement plan such as an individual retirement account (IRA). However, investing in MLPs can sometimes leave you owing taxes even on your IRA.</p><p><b>Dividend investment strategies</b></p><p>There&#39;s a misconception that dividend stocks are only for retirees or risk-averse investors. That&#39;s not the case. You should consider buying dividend-paying stocks whenever you start investing to reap their long-term benefits. Dividend stocks, especially those in companies that consistently increase their dividends, have historically outperformed the market with less volatility. Because of that, dividend stocks are a great fit for any portfolio as they can help you build a diversified portfolio.</p><p>There are a few dividend strategies to consider. The first is to build a dividend portfolio as part of your overall portfolio. When you&#39;re building a dividend portfolio, it&#39;s important to remember that paying dividends isn&#39;t obligatory for a company in the same way that companies must make interest payments on bonds. That means that if a company has to cut expenses, the dividend could be at risk.</p><p>You cannot completely eliminate the risk of a dividend cut, but you can lower the risk. Focus less on a company&#39;s dividend yield and more on its ability to consistently increase its dividend. Look for a company with a sound financial profile focused on a growing industry.</p><p>Another aspect of a dividend investing strategy is to determine how you want to reinvest your dividends. Some investors opt to reinvest their dividends manually, while others use a dividend reinvesting plan, also called a DRIP. This powerful tool will take every dividend you earn and reinvest it -- without fees or commissions -- back into shares of that company.

Dividend stocks have historically outperformed the S&P 500 with less volatility. That's because dividend stocks provide two sources of return: regular income from dividend payments and capital appreciation of the stock price. This total return can add up over time.Because of their lower volatility, dividend stocks often appeal to investors looking for lower-risk investments, especially those in or nearing retirement. But dividend stocks can still be risky if you don't know what to avoid. Here's a closer look at how to invest in dividend stocks.How dividend stocks workLet's look at an example. Say you buy 100 shares of a company for $10 each, and each share pays a dividend of $0.30 annually. If you invested $1,000, over the course of a year you would receive $30 in dividend payments. That works out to a 3% yield -- not too shabby.What you choose to do with your dividends is up to you. You can:Reinvest them to buy more shares of the company.Buy stock in a different company.Save the cash.Spend the money.Regardless of whether the company's stock price goes up or down, you would receive those dividend payments as long as the company continues to disburse them.The beauty of stocks that pay dividends is that part of your return includes predictable quarterly payments. Not every company offering dividend stocks can maintain a dividend payout in every economic environment, which the COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated. But a diversified portfolio of dividend stocks can produce reliable income rain or shine.Combine those dividends with capital appreciation as the companies you own grow in value, and the total returns can rival, and even exceed, those of the broader market.Examples of dividend stocksHere are some well-known companies that have a long history of paying dividends, along with their dividend yields at recent stock prices and the per-share amount of each dividend:Dividend yield and amount as of Jan. 16, 2022. Dividend amount is most recent per-share quarterly dividend paid.All three of these companies have increased their stock dividends for more than 50 consecutive years. Because of that, they're in an elite group of companies known as the Dividend Kings. They're also part of the Dividend Aristocrats, companies with more than 25 years of consecutive dividend increases. Dividend stocks can come from just about any industry, and the amount of the dividend and percentage yield can vary greatly from one company to the next.Dividend yield and other key metricsBefore you buy any dividend stocks, it's important to know how to evaluate them. These metrics can help you understand how much in dividends to expect, how reliable a dividend might be, and, most importantly, how to identify red flags.Dividend yield: This is the annualized dividend represented as a percentage of the stock price. For instance, if a company pays $1 in annualized dividends and the stock costs $20 per share, then the dividend yield would be 5%. Yield is useful as a valuation metric when you compare a stock's current yield to its historical levels. A higher-dividend yield is better, all other things being equal, but a company's ability to maintain the dividend payout -- and, ideally, increase it -- matters even more. However, an abnormally high dividend yield could be a red flag.Dividend payout ratio: This is the dividend as a percentage of a company's earnings. If a company earns $1 per share in net income and pays a $0.50-per-share dividend, then the payout ratio is 50%. In general terms, the lower the payout ratio, the more sustainable a dividend should be.Cash dividend payout ratio: This is the dividend as a percentage of a company's operating cash flows minus capital expenditures, or free cash flow. This metric is relevant because GAAP net income is not a cash measure, and various non-cash expenses can cause a company's earnings and its free cash flow to vary significantly from one period to the next. This variability can render a company's payout ratio misleading at times. Investors can use the cash dividend payout ratio, along with the simple payout ratio, to better understand a dividend's sustainability.Total return: This is the increase in stock price (known as capital gains) plus dividends paid. For example, if you pay $10 for a stock that increases in value by $1 and pays a $0.50 dividend, then that $1.50 you've gained is equivalent to a 15% total return.Earnings per share (EPS): The EPS metric normalizes a company's earnings to the per-share value. The best dividend stocks are companies that have shown the ability to regularly increase earnings per share over time and thus raise their dividend. A history of earnings growth is often evidence of durable competitive advantages.P/E ratio: The price-to-earnings ratio is calculated by dividing a company's share price by its earnings per share. The P/E ratio is a metric that can be used along with dividend yield to determine if a dividend stock is fairly valued.Image Source: The Motley FoolHigh yield isn't everythingInexperienced dividend investors often make the mistake of buying stocks with the highest dividend yields. While high-yield stocks aren't bad, high yields can be the result of a stock's price falling due to the risk of the dividend being cut. That's called a dividend yield trap.Here are some steps you can take to avoid falling for a yield trap:Avoid buying stocks based solely on dividend yield. If a company has a significantly higher yield than its peers, that's often a sign of trouble, not opportunity.Use the payout ratios to gauge a dividend's sustainability.Use a company's dividend history -- of both payout growth and yield -- as a guide.Study the balance sheet, including debt, cash, and other assets and liabilities.Consider the company and industry itself. Is the company's business at risk from competitors, weak demand, or some other disruption?Sadly, a yield that looks too good to be true often is. It's better to buy a dividend stock with a lower yield that's rock-solid than to chase a high yield that may prove illusory. Moreover, focusing on dividend growth -- a company's history and ability to raise its stock dividend -- often proves more profitable.How are dividends taxed?Most dividend stocks pay \"qualified\" dividends, which, depending on your tax bracket, are taxed at a rate of 0% to 20%. That range is significantly lower than the ordinary income tax rates of 10% to 37% or more. (An additional 3.8% tax is levied on certain investment income for the highest earners.)While most dividends qualify for the lower tax rates, some dividends are classified as \"ordinary\" or non-qualified dividends and are taxed at your marginal tax rate. Several kinds of stocks are structured to pay high dividend yields and may come with higher tax obligations because of their corporate structures. The two most common are real estate investment trusts, or REITs, and master limited partnerships, or MLPs.Of course, this extra tax burden doesn't apply if your dividend stocks are held in a tax-advantaged retirement plan such as an individual retirement account (IRA). However, investing in MLPs can sometimes leave you owing taxes even on your IRA.Dividend investment strategiesThere's a misconception that dividend stocks are only for retirees or risk-averse investors. That's not the case. You should consider buying dividend-paying stocks whenever you start investing to reap their long-term benefits. Dividend stocks, especially those in companies that consistently increase their dividends, have historically outperformed the market with less volatility. Because of that, dividend stocks are a great fit for any portfolio as they can help you build a diversified portfolio.There are a few dividend strategies to consider. The first is to build a dividend portfolio as part of your overall portfolio. When you're building a dividend portfolio, it's important to remember that paying dividends isn't obligatory for a company in the same way that companies must make interest payments on bonds. That means that if a company has to cut expenses, the dividend could be at risk.You cannot completely eliminate the risk of a dividend cut, but you can lower the risk. Focus less on a company's dividend yield and more on its ability to consistently increase its dividend. Look for a company with a sound financial profile focused on a growing industry.Another aspect of a dividend investing strategy is to determine how you want to reinvest your dividends. Some investors opt to reinvest their dividends manually, while others use a dividend reinvesting plan, also called a DRIP. This powerful tool will take every dividend you earn and reinvest it -- without fees or commissions -- back into shares of that company. This simple set-it-and-forget-it tool is one of the easiest ways to put the power of time and compounding value to work in your favor.Another dividend investing strategy is to invest in a dividend-focused exchange-traded fund (ETF) or mutual fund. These fund options enable investors to own diversified portfolios of dividend stocks that generate passive income.No matter what dividend strategy you use, adding dividend stocks to your portfolio can be beneficial. They can help reduce volatility and boost your total returns so that you can reach your financial goals a little faster.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
