Investor confidence in the stock has been weak since Amazon’s core commerce business took a sharp turn from the pandemic-era boom to underutilization earlier in the year. The inefficiencies had left Amazon in a scramble for aggressive cost-cutting opportunities – spanning abandoned capacity expansion to swift shutdowns of unprofitable projects. And now a looming economic downturn risks spurring further consumer weakness ahead, casting a shadow over any possibilities for a rapid recovery in its core commerce business within the near term.

Yet, the AWS cloud that has largely shielded Amazon from a greater selloff is showing signs of dissipation. While AWS take-rates in the third quarter remained resilient, with cloud spending amongst the IT environment still viewed as critical to stay economically and operationally competitive, there are growing signs of market share erosion – which has long been expected given the massive magnitude of the segment and long streak of double-digit growth that appears to be falling behind that of peers. While Wall Street as long been unanimously bullish on Amazon, we believe that link is starting to weaken, especially as AWS’ impressive growth streak is starting to show early signs of moderation.</p><p>Amazon's stock currently trades at a whopping 70x forward earnings, while the large-cap peer group trades at an average of about 28x. However, it is important to consider that the company’s margins have been battered this year due to non-cyclical factors (e.g., utilization mismanagement), which has contributed to a significant diversion between its earnings and sales valuation multiples. By taking Amazon’s sales multiples (e.g., forward EV/sales and forward price/sales) as a gauge for its market value relative to peers instead, which makes a better reflection of its normalized business performance relative to peers’, the stock remains undervalued, supporting longer-term upside potential.</p><p>However, given Amazon’s dissipating cloud strength, and ongoing consumer weakness that will continue to put pressure on its core commerce business within the near term, the stock will likely be subject to greater vulnerability to volatile market sentiment over the coming months until the macro-overhang subsides. This is especially true given investors’ increasing preference for profitability under the current market climate – meaning that while core commerce’s profit margin improvement in the third quarter is welcomed, it will need to ratchet up further at a sustained pace to keep up with anticipated deceleration in AWS, and alleviate the latter’s burden of having to carry Amazon’s consolidated valuation prospects.</p><p><b>Is AWS At Risk?</b></p><p>AWS is currently the leading public cloud service vendor, accounting for about a third of the global market share. It also continues to lead its key rivals, namely Microsoft’s Azure(MSFT) and Alphabet’sGoogle Cloud Platform(GOOG/GOOGL), by wide margins. Specifically, Azure is a distant second, commanding about 20% of the global cloud market, and GCP about 10% in third place.</p><p>AWS has been a key driver of Amazon’s valuation given its impressive growth and margin expansion trajectory, acting as a key “barometer” of the company’s future prospects – especially in recent quarters, compensating for the growth slowdown and deteriorating profit margins in the core commerce segment. Despite Amazon’s likely conservative outlook for AWS implied through modest consolidated growth for the current quarter – which we view as a welcomed and reasonable move to temper investors’ expectations given the business’ massive size, and consistent with Azure’s modest guidance earlier this week. It is important to recognize that cloud spending remains resilient given “secular shift and prioritization for corporates”.</p><p>Yet, after sustaining more than six quarters of consecutive 30%-plus y/y growth, the segment is starting to show signs of structural deceleration, with third quarter growth coming in at 28% on a constant currency basis compared to the same period last year – an imminent occurrence given its massive magnitude of growth and business volume achieved in recent years. AWS’ multi-year compounded annual growth rate in the past five years has moderated to about 26%, while Azure’s is at the 40%-range and GCP at the high-30%-range.</p><p>And while AWS remains the unmatched market leader by wide margins, the gap is gradually narrowing. Specifically, recent third-party data shows that spending intentions for Azure and GCP are on the rise, as corporates turn to a multi-cloud strategy for benefits that include “risk mitigation, reliability/redundancy, multi-function availability, and mostly importantly, cost-efficiencies”.</p><p>Given AWS is already the dominant public cloud service vendor on the market, it is hard for it to take further advantage of increasing multi-cloud momentum. In a recent sentiment check survey performed by RBC Capital Markets, about 57% of corporates looking to ramp up investments in cloud have noted AWS as a potential beneficiary over the next 12 months, compared with 73% for GCP and 71% for Azure. AWS is also starting to lose share to key rival Azure amongst large enterprise cloud spending – the latter has taken over AWS as the leading public cloud service provider for enterprises generating more than $5 billion in annual revenues, acquiring more than 50% share in the cohort while AWS only captures a little more than 30%. And while AWS remains the market share leader in the largest cloud spending segments – namely, medium-sized enterprises with annual revenues spanning $1 billion and $5 billion, and small enterprises with annual revenues of less than $1 billion – rivals Azure and GCP are catching up fast. AWS currently commands about 60% of global cloud market share across medium-sized enterprises, while Azure accounts for more than 40%; and across small enterprises, AWS commands about a 40% share while Azure and GCP account for 30%.</p><p><b>Implications of a Potential AWS Slowdown</b></p><p>What these trends, paired with tempered expectations from management’s forward guidance provided, imply is that AWS is likely headed towards the beginning of moderation, with its high-flying growth coming to a gradual deceleration as it continues to take advantage of secular demand for cloud-computing solutions over coming years. Meanwhile, the rapid growth it once enjoyed will now likely rotate to peers as they benefit from the increasing adoption of a multi-cloud strategy across the corporate sector, effectively narrowing their respective market shares’ distance from AWS’.</p><p>With AWS being Amazon’s core profit engine, the increasing pace of moderation will likely bode unfavourably for the stock’s near-term performance – especially as its core commerce segment also reels from souring consumer sentiment ahead of a cyclical downturn. This means whatever Amazon is doing now to improve its core commerce’s growth and profit margins – whether it is slashing budgets for non-profitable projects, dialing down the pace of fulfilment capacity expansion, slowing the pace of hiring, and/or improved value proposition to drive increased Prime demand – needs step it up a notch further, as AWS’ strength may not overshadow core commerce’s near-term weakness much longer to uphold Amazon’s valuation prospects.</p><p>Looking ahead, these trends may also push investors to look for new areas of growth and profitability in the company – especially advertising, which represents another secular demand environment as digital ad formats rapidly displace traditional channels like linear TV, radio and paper. As discussed in our previous coverage on the stock, Amazon’s advertising business benefits greatly from its first-party data advantage, which reduces reliance on third-party user data that now faces “signal [loss] dynamics” stemming from Apple’s (AAPL)privacy policy changes implemented last year. The value of this competitive advantage is further corroborated by resilience and momentum demonstrated in Amazon’s advertising business (+30% y/y; +9% q/q) in the third quarter despite cautions advertiser spending ahead of a looming economic slowdown, which reinforces robust forward prospects. Recent market research has also echoed similarly favourable trends for Amazon’s growing advertising business, a high-margin revenue stream that will continue to contribute positively to the company’s bottom-line over the longer-term:</p><blockquote>Retail media advertising will increase from $31 billion this year to $42 billion in 2023. The bulk of it comes from Amazon’s product search but all other large retailers are now developing advertising sales through keyword search or display ads on their apps and websites. Retail media is mostly fuelled by consumer brands reallocating below-the-line, trade-marketing budgets from in-store towards digital retail networks, as a greater percentage of retail sales comes from e-commerce. Furthermore, retail-owned media networks are mostly immune from the privacy-based limitations on data usage and targeting, that display or social media owner’s face, because they can leverage their own first-party data.</blockquote><blockquote>Source:Magna Advertising Forecast, U.S. Fall Update (September 2022)</blockquote><p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p><p>We remain optimistic that Amazon will be able to maintain and restore strength to its core commerce moat, though the undertaking may take longer-than-expected given near-term macro headwinds beyond the company’s control. In the meantime, AWS will continue to be the core saviour of Amazon’s valuation. But considering it may not be able to hold onto the role much longer ahead of imminent deceleration, Amazon's stock might become more susceptible to further downtrends in tandem with the souring near-term market outlook. In the near- to medium-term, we believe investor expectations for core commerce improvements will increase despite anticipated consumer weakness to make up for potential deceleration in AWS, with more focus diverted towards momentum in Amazon’s ad sales, an emerging core profit engine. For now, Amazon's stock will likely become less protected from increasingly fragile market sentiment over coming months as expectations adjust, which could potentially create better entry opportunities for eventual upsides once consumer headwinds subside.</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 Amazon A Buy After Q3 2022 Earnings?

The bulk of it comes from Amazon’s product search but all other large retailers are now developing advertising sales through keyword search or display ads on their apps and websites. Retail media is mostly fuelled by consumer brands reallocating below-the-line, trade-marketing budgets from in-store towards digital retail networks, as a greater percentage of retail sales comes from e-commerce. Furthermore, retail-owned media networks are mostly immune from the privacy-based limitations on data usage and targeting, that display or social media owner’s face, because they can leverage their own first-party data.Source:Magna Advertising Forecast, U.S. Fall Update (September 2022)Final ThoughtsWe remain optimistic that Amazon will be able to maintain and restore strength to its core commerce moat, though the undertaking may take longer-than-expected given near-term macro headwinds beyond the company’s control. In the meantime, AWS will continue to be the core saviour of Amazon’s valuation. But considering it may not be able to hold onto the role much longer ahead of imminent deceleration, Amazon's stock might become more susceptible to further downtrends in tandem with the souring near-term market outlook. In the near- to medium-term, we believe investor expectations for core commerce improvements will increase despite anticipated consumer weakness to make up for potential deceleration in AWS, with more focus diverted towards momentum in Amazon’s ad sales, an emerging core profit engine. For now, Amazon's stock will likely become less protected from increasingly fragile market sentiment over coming months as expectations adjust, which could potentially create better entry opportunities for eventual upsides once consumer headwinds subside.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9986850481,"gmtCreate":1666926494044,"gmtModify":1676537832878,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"No. Not a good buy to me.","listText":"No. Not a good buy to me.","text":"No. Not a good buy to me.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9986850481","repostId":"1100216928","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":441,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9981674110,"gmtCreate":1666501219430,"gmtModify":1676537763235,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ty","listText":"Ty","text":"Ty","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9981674110","repostId":"2277553762","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2277553762","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1666483064,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2277553762?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-23 07:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Watch These Retail Stocks to Defy Consumer Spending Worries and Outperform","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2277553762","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"The early round of earnings reports in the retail sector showed some pockets of consumer strength ev","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The early round of earnings reports in the retail sector showed some pockets of consumer strength even with forecasts for holiday spending being reeled in.

Apple's stock is ground zero for investors that expect stimulus-fueled levels of consumer spending to last forever. In reality, investors are tripping over each other to pay a peak multiple for consumer discretionary stocks like AAPL at peak earnings. This is unlikely to succeed as an investing strategy. To this point, the present valuation of Apple is a gift to investors, who now have the opportunity to sell while the stock is overvalued and allocate money elsewhere.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c74fbc6467060e07ea0d8b8477c0a63f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><h3>The Pandemic Didn't Fundamentally Change Apple's Business</h3><p>Of course, Apple is a profitable business. But the beauty of looking at Apple's income statement is that it can tell you why the company is making more money and whether the share price is increasing faster or slower than the business.</p><p>Apple's share price shows powerful gains, trading for about 5.9x more than it did 10 years ago.</p><p>EPS is up a lot over the last 10 years (3.8x), but not as much as the share price.</p><p>And EPS, in turn, is up a lot more than net income (2.4x).</p><p>When you subtract out corporate tax cuts and the benefit from lower interest rates, earnings are only 2.1x the levels of 10 years ago.</p><p>Moreover, nearly all of this growth has come recently during the pandemic. From 2012 to 2019, earnings before interest and taxes had only grown about 16%! The rest was all from tax cuts, lower interest rates, stimulus, and Apple's buyback. Not to discount the wisdom of buybacks in general- it was great when Apple was buying its shares back at like 10x earnings. But recently at 30x earnings? Not so much!</p><p>It's strange when you think about it, but Apple's story has been similarly borne out among thousands of companies with the same trend of Market Cap Growth > EPS Growth> Net Income Growth> EBIT Growth. Valuations have risen faster than earnings, which in turn have been juiced by stimulus, falling interest rates, and deficit-financed corporate tax cuts. In the end, investors are getting a lot of sizzle and not much steak.</p><p>If you're buying Apple here, you really need a compelling reason why Apple's business has fundamentally improved since 2019. I don't see one, besides people getting free money from the government. iPhone sales have been higher post-pandemic than previously, but consider that the US government handed out approximately $10,000 per family in stimulus in 2021. That's tax-free cash in addition to wages 95% of people were making working in 2021, so it was generally pure profit to recipients. In addition, remember that consumers had limited choices for travel, entertainment, and events, which directed spending towards consumer goods like Apple's.</p><p>But what will happen to consumer spending this holiday season without $10,000 per family in free money and with raging inflation squeezing budgets? A massive miss in profits for consumer discretionary companies is the most likely outcome. Analysts are now slowly starting the process of revising Apple's earnings estimates down. The danger here is deceptive, as evidenced by the recent earnings misses of Adobe (ADBE), FedEx (FDX), and Restoration Hardware (RH) that reported off-cycle. Traders are excited because banks like Bank of America (BAC) reported higher profits from the Fed's interest rate hiking campaign. However, as the earnings cycle turns to consumer discretionary and tech there will likely be a bunch of stocks getting routed, with high-profile stocks like Apple and Amazon (AMZN) being likely victims.</p><h3>What To Expect From Apple's Earnings: Not Sustainable</h3><p>Apple reports quarterly earnings after the market closes on Thursday, October 27th. As always, Apple's report will be followed by their quarterly earnings call (and posted on Seeking Alpha shortly after). Analysts expect earnings of $1.27 for the quarter. Apple no longer gives earnings guidance- there's no requirement to do so even though they did so in the past. But this causes investors to get too excited about Apple's prospects rather than actually looking at the numbers. For investors to expect profits to simply level off with the rug pulled on stimulus is naive. Even before the recent revisions, Wall Street analysts had only projected mid-single-digit EPS growth for Apple over the next few years. That's not a huge vote of confidence. If you take these estimates at face value, Apple trades for over 22x next fiscal year's earnings with middling growth prospects. By contrast, the S&P 500 currently trades for about 15.6x analyst earnings estimates and has roughly equal growth prospects. The long-running story for Apple of course has been growth in services revenue, but I expect that to slow dramatically as the amount they can squeeze Google (GOOG) dramatically slows. If Apple can tell TSMC (TSM) no on price increases, then Google can likely do the same for Apple.</p><p>This wouldn't be so bad except for the likelihood that earnings estimates are wildly inflated due to the massive stimulus in 2021. Once you account for the stimulus, I don't think there's much that fundamentally changed for Apple, its products, or its business prospects. In fact, people are likely to delay upgrading iPhones for years since they upgraded en masse in 2021 and early 2022. Apple is oddly out of step with the rest of the industry on this- they recently had to pull a U-turn on a planned 7% ramp in production. We can draw some clues on demand from the broader semiconductor market, with Micron (MU) and Nvidia (NVDA) acknowledging the slowdown in September, with Intel (INTC) announcing weak results and job cuts shortly after. Taiwan Semiconductor announced results a few days ago and warned of weakening demand. There's also the issue of the strong dollar, which eats away at Apple's US dollar profits on sales made outside the US. If past cycles are any guide, earnings for mature consumer-centric companies like Apple are likely to fall substantially. Without stimulus, AAPL's earnings could easily trend back to a bit above its pre-pandemic numbers, pushing the stock below $100 and likely below $75. There are severe, structural problems with the ability of consumers to continue to spend at the rate they are, and consumer discretionary companies are on the frontlines of this change. Raging inflation, lack of stimulus, declines in real earnings, etc., all have a hand in this.

For example, if we poll 100 people on how many jellybeans are in a jar or what the margin of victory will be for a candidate in the midterm elections, the highest estimates are likely to be wrong. The high estimates tend to have more noise in them than the ones in the middle. Financial markets aren't so different.

By contrast, you can sell Apple and put your money in a basket of small-cap stocks (IJR) that are trading at similar valuations to 2019.

AAPL is now among the most overvalued large-cap names.

But as the economy softens, are people really going to go out of their way to upgrade their iPhones?2021 was \"peak everything\" for consumers, with spending on consumer goods like Apple's products being a key bellwether.Apple's U-turn on its planned iPhone production ramp is a clear early warning signal for earnings to decline, but few investors are listening.Apple has also been a prime beneficiary of tax cuts, QE, and stimulus, while the underlying net income of its business looks more sluggish and cyclical.While Apple is a decent business, you should not get sucked into paying high PE ratios for popular stocks with earnings at cyclical peaks, or your portfolio will likely suffer the consequences.Some buy-and-hold investors may consider this blasphemy, but since late 2019 Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock price has grown increasingly disconnected from the reality of its underlying business. Apple's stock is ground zero for investors that expect stimulus-fueled levels of consumer spending to last forever. In reality, investors are tripping over each other to pay a peak multiple for consumer discretionary stocks like AAPL at peak earnings. This is unlikely to succeed as an investing strategy. To this point, the present valuation of Apple is a gift to investors, who now have the opportunity to sell while the stock is overvalued and allocate money elsewhere.Data by YChartsThe Pandemic Didn't Fundamentally Change Apple's BusinessOf course, Apple is a profitable business. But the beauty of looking at Apple's income statement is that it can tell you why the company is making more money and whether the share price is increasing faster or slower than the business.Apple's share price shows powerful gains, trading for about 5.9x more than it did 10 years ago.EPS is up a lot over the last 10 years (3.8x), but not as much as the share price.And EPS, in turn, is up a lot more than net income (2.4x).When you subtract out corporate tax cuts and the benefit from lower interest rates, earnings are only 2.1x the levels of 10 years ago.Moreover, nearly all of this growth has come recently during the pandemic. From 2012 to 2019, earnings before interest and taxes had only grown about 16%! The rest was all from tax cuts, lower interest rates, stimulus, and Apple's buyback. Not to discount the wisdom of buybacks in general- it was great when Apple was buying its shares back at like 10x earnings. But recently at 30x earnings? Not so much!It's strange when you think about it, but Apple's story has been similarly borne out among thousands of companies with the same trend of Market Cap Growth > EPS Growth> Net Income Growth> EBIT Growth. Valuations have risen faster than earnings, which in turn have been juiced by stimulus, falling interest rates, and deficit-financed corporate tax cuts. In the end, investors are getting a lot of sizzle and not much steak.If you're buying Apple here, you really need a compelling reason why Apple's business has fundamentally improved since 2019. I don't see one, besides people getting free money from the government. iPhone sales have been higher post-pandemic than previously, but consider that the US government handed out approximately $10,000 per family in stimulus in 2021. That's tax-free cash in addition to wages 95% of people were making working in 2021, so it was generally pure profit to recipients. In addition, remember that consumers had limited choices for travel, entertainment, and events, which directed spending towards consumer goods like Apple's.But what will happen to consumer spending this holiday season without $10,000 per family in free money and with raging inflation squeezing budgets? A massive miss in profits for consumer discretionary companies is the most likely outcome. Analysts are now slowly starting the process of revising Apple's earnings estimates down. The danger here is deceptive, as evidenced by the recent earnings misses of Adobe (ADBE), FedEx (FDX), and Restoration Hardware (RH) that reported off-cycle. Traders are excited because banks like Bank of America (BAC) reported higher profits from the Fed's interest rate hiking campaign. However, as the earnings cycle turns to consumer discretionary and tech there will likely be a bunch of stocks getting routed, with high-profile stocks like Apple and Amazon (AMZN) being likely victims.What To Expect From Apple's Earnings: Not SustainableApple reports quarterly earnings after the market closes on Thursday, October 27th. As always, Apple's report will be followed by their quarterly earnings call (and posted on Seeking Alpha shortly after). Analysts expect earnings of $1.27 for the quarter. Apple no longer gives earnings guidance- there's no requirement to do so even though they did so in the past. But this causes investors to get too excited about Apple's prospects rather than actually looking at the numbers. For investors to expect profits to simply level off with the rug pulled on stimulus is naive. Even before the recent revisions, Wall Street analysts had only projected mid-single-digit EPS growth for Apple over the next few years. That's not a huge vote of confidence. If you take these estimates at face value, Apple trades for over 22x next fiscal year's earnings with middling growth prospects. By contrast, the S&P 500 currently trades for about 15.6x analyst earnings estimates and has roughly equal growth prospects. The long-running story for Apple of course has been growth in services revenue, but I expect that to slow dramatically as the amount they can squeeze Google (GOOG) dramatically slows. If Apple can tell TSMC (TSM) no on price increases, then Google can likely do the same for Apple.This wouldn't be so bad except for the likelihood that earnings estimates are wildly inflated due to the massive stimulus in 2021. Once you account for the stimulus, I don't think there's much that fundamentally changed for Apple, its products, or its business prospects. In fact, people are likely to delay upgrading iPhones for years since they upgraded en masse in 2021 and early 2022. Apple is oddly out of step with the rest of the industry on this- they recently had to pull a U-turn on a planned 7% ramp in production. We can draw some clues on demand from the broader semiconductor market, with Micron (MU) and Nvidia (NVDA) acknowledging the slowdown in September, with Intel (INTC) announcing weak results and job cuts shortly after. Taiwan Semiconductor announced results a few days ago and warned of weakening demand. There's also the issue of the strong dollar, which eats away at Apple's US dollar profits on sales made outside the US. If past cycles are any guide, earnings for mature consumer-centric companies like Apple are likely to fall substantially. Without stimulus, AAPL's earnings could easily trend back to a bit above its pre-pandemic numbers, pushing the stock below $100 and likely below $75. There are severe, structural problems with the ability of consumers to continue to spend at the rate they are, and consumer discretionary companies are on the frontlines of this change. Raging inflation, lack of stimulus, declines in real earnings, etc., all have a hand in this. And when the hammer eventually drops on student loan forbearance, that's another 1% or more of the national income sucked back into the U.S. Treasury- equivalent to a fairly broad income tax hike.Mega Cap Tech Valuations: Signal And NoiseThere's a classic experiment in statistics where if you put a bunch of people's guesses together, the highest numbers are likely to be overestimated, while the lowest numbers are likely to be underestimated.

But renewed selling pressure was generated by a report from the University of Michigan showing a rebound in inflation expectations in October.Traders also reacted to earnings news from several big-name financial companies as JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Wells Fargo (WFC) reported better than expected revenues, while Morgan Stanley (MS) missed estimates.Crude oil prices plummeted on Friday, weighed down by concerns about the outlook for energy demand amid the rising possibility of a global recession. West Texas Intermediate Crude oil futures for November ended lower by $3.50 or 3.9 percent at $85.61 a barrel.Closer to home, Singapore will provide September numbers for non-oil domestic exports later this morning, with forecasts suggesting a decline of 2.1 percent on month and an increase of 7.1 percent on year. That follows the 3.9 percent monthly decline and the 11.4 percent yearly gain in August.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":524,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9989882319,"gmtCreate":1665969213331,"gmtModify":1676537684546,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thank you.","listText":"Thank you.","text":"Thank you.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9989882319","repostId":"1117715251","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":368,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9989886523,"gmtCreate":1665969172462,"gmtModify":1676537684531,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ty","listText":"Ty","text":"Ty","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9989886523","repostId":"2275965539","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2275965539","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1665964789,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2275965539?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-17 07:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Google: Buy This Stock When the Market Pukes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2275965539","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Stalwart, blue-chip, US stock market juggernaut, and Google parent, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:G","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Stalwart, blue-chip, US stock market juggernaut, and Google parent, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), made a new 52-week low this week.

This is so important because, according to Wikipedia:</p><blockquote><i>"Most Android devices ship with additional proprietary software pre-installed most notably Google Mobile Services which includes core apps such as Google Chrome, the digital distribution platform Google Play, and associated Google Play Services development platform."</i></blockquote><p>This gives Google a massive competitive advantage in gathering information about users that is extremely valuable to advertisers (i.e. Google's biggest operating segment).</p><p>Further, more than 90% of global searches are conducted through Google, thereby giving the company access to enormous data valuable to advertisers. Also (per StatCounter), Google's Chrome browser remains the market leader with roughly two-thirds of total market share as compared to 19% for Apple's Safari and 4% for Microsoft's Edge (MSFT). And further still, the success of Google's YouTube's continues to grow as its contributions to the top and bottom line continue to improve.</p><p><b>Google Cloud Services</b> has been growing (even faster than Google Services), and is expected to keep growing as the global digital revolution and cloud migration are still just getting started. Google has some strong advantages in this area (stemming from its many years of internal cloud development), however Google Cloud is still the number three player behind Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f9d49ee52b90c60c86fd969c15441f6f\" tg-width=\"468\" tg-height=\"468\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Statista</span></p><p>We expect Google Cloud to keep growing rapidly (which is a good thing) but not enough to overtake AWS or Azure (which are also growing rapidly and have a big head start on Google).</p><p><b>The Other Bets Segment</b> is constantly innovating with technology. And despite the fact that this segment is a loss leader (it makes no money) it could open massive opportunities down the road. For example, Google's autonomous vehicle technologies (i.e. Waymo) is a huge expense, but could open huge revenue opportunities many years down the road. Google's research efforts into smart homes (i.e. Nest) is another example of an expense now that could turn to profit many years down the road. Further still, the company's applications of machine learning may also expand and prove increasingly valuable.</p><h2><b>Capital Allocation and Investments</b></h2><p>Google is a high-margin and high-cash-flow business, and this allows it to do a lot of things right. For starters, the company's operating margin was recently 28% and its operating cash flow was $19.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022 (also nearly 28%).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c8d7fb3e368a9614a4f2d57013b3927e\" tg-width=\"1027\" tg-height=\"514\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alphabet 10-Q</span></p><p>With regards to long-term debt, Google has relatively very little at around $12.8 billion versus $125 billion in cash (and equivalents) on its balance sheet. The leverage ratio is very low, and to a significant extent, this isolates Google from the increasing costs of financing growth that other companies (with high debt and less cash flow) face due to rising interest rates.</p><p>Google's strong balance sheet position allows it to invest heavily in research (its R&D margin as a percent of revenue is ~12.7%, truly incredible considering the size of Google's revenue). The company is also well positioned to continue its history of successful acquisitions (especially now that the market is down) such as its previous acquisitions of YouTube, DoubleClick, Android and Fitbit.</p><p>Further still, Google has continued to return cash to shareholders through buybacks ($18 billion in 2019, $31 billion in 2020, and $50 billion in 2021). And in April 2022, it authorized another $70 billion for share buybacks. And you can even make the case that Google has been setting itself up to start paying a dividend to shareholders in the future. For example, here is what Morningstar Senior Equity Analyst, Ali Mogharabi, had to say about it in a July 2022 research note:</p><blockquote><i>"In late 2015, Alphabet became a holding company, with Google one of its wholly owned subsidiaries. Alphabet is also the parent company of other businesses, mostly moonshots, which are grouped into the other bets segment that includes Waymo. This structure has provided slightly more transparency to shareholders, as the company's mature cash-generating business, Google, is managed separately. In our opinion, such a move may indicate that management is considering some form of redistribution of cash generated by Google to shareholders a few years down the road."</i></blockquote><p>Overall, Google has been a prudent allocator of capital and remains in an extremely strong cash position.</p><h2>Valuation</h2><p>Google trades at around 10x forward EV to EBITDA, and this multiple could easily double given the company's strong growth (i.e. the valuation multiple is compressed).</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6cbfc8a4b4c1e8dcad3fb5cd0983fad0\" tg-width=\"963\" tg-height=\"629\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>YCharts</p><p>For perspective, here is the EV to EBITDA ratios for other companies with similarly high growth rates and strong margins.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c373ec919afaf61974374756643c03ea\" tg-width=\"1031\" tg-height=\"474\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Stock Rover</p><p>And here are other large cap companies in the technology and communication services sectors, for comparison purposes.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17cc47e3f74612b9907d44a0961fece2\" tg-width=\"1031\" tg-height=\"476\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Stock Rover</p><p>On these metrics, Google stands out as attractive, in our view. It also has one of the highest (most bullish) analyst ratings on the street, as you can see below.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d0779504e7546fdc6881b33e61a266d\" tg-width=\"669\" tg-height=\"304\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><h2>The Big Risks</h2><p>Of course the shares of Google can still fall further, considering the macroeconomic backdrop. For example, the Federal Reserve has essentially zero regard for the damage it is doing to the stock market this year by raising rates dramatically (after all, its dual mandate is focused on employment and inflation, not stocks). And as the Fed fights inflation, rates can still go much higher, and stocks can still fall much further. In fact, Google Trends shows searches for the term "recession" remain elevated (perhaps suggesting ongoing negative market confidence).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c33bb24b2eb023e2dc7dfd567ee8928\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"371\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Google Trends</p><p>Another risk is the unfriendly dual share class structure of Google that gives 51% of the voting rights to Larry Page (co-founder) and Sergey Brin (co-founder). These two can collectively make decisions that may or may not be in the best interest of shareholders.</p><p>Data privacy and censorship are a big risk to Google. On one hand, users have concerns over how their data is used and how little control they have over it. Further, concerns over censorship (including government-sanctioned censorship around the world) gives rise to additional complaints and lawsuits.</p><p>Antitrust concerns are also a risk factor. For example, companies, regulatory agencies and governments have challenged Google's biases as well as dominance (90% of global searches are conducted via Google) and this is an ongoing legal and brand risk for the company. Antitrust concerns could also limit Google's future acquisition aspirations that may arise.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Forward-looking investors recognized the macroeconomic risks months before the fed started taking inflation seriously. For example, many high-growth stocks started selling off particularly hard well before the Fed actually started rapidly increasing interest rates. And while many of these high-growth stocks deserved to sell off hard (as their valuations soared during the 0% interest rate bubble, while their earnings remained totally non-existent), Google is not one of them.</p><p>Rather, Google is a good example of a high-quality growth stock (with tremendous growth trajectory, a strong balance sheet, and powerful cash flows) that has been indiscriminately caught up in the recent growth-stock sell-off. In fact, it is one of the four highly compelling opportunities we highlight in our new report: "When the Market Pukes: Buy These 4 Stocks in Buckets." Things can still get much worse before they get better, but in the long term we expect Google shares are going dramatically higher. We are currently long Google.</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>Google: Buy This Stock When the Market Pukes</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: Buy This Stock When the Market Pukes\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-17 07:59 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4546659-google-stock-market-puking><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stalwart, blue-chip, US stock market juggernaut, and Google parent, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), made a new 52-week low this week.

In fact, Google Trends shows searches for the term \"recession\" remain elevated (perhaps suggesting ongoing negative market confidence).Google TrendsAnother risk is the unfriendly dual share class structure of Google that gives 51% of the voting rights to Larry Page (co-founder) and Sergey Brin (co-founder). These two can collectively make decisions that may or may not be in the best interest of shareholders.Data privacy and censorship are a big risk to Google. On one hand, users have concerns over how their data is used and how little control they have over it. Further, concerns over censorship (including government-sanctioned censorship around the world) gives rise to additional complaints and lawsuits.Antitrust concerns are also a risk factor. For example, companies, regulatory agencies and governments have challenged Google's biases as well as dominance (90% of global searches are conducted via Google) and this is an ongoing legal and brand risk for the company. Antitrust concerns could also limit Google's future acquisition aspirations that may arise.ConclusionForward-looking investors recognized the macroeconomic risks months before the fed started taking inflation seriously. For example, many high-growth stocks started selling off particularly hard well before the Fed actually started rapidly increasing interest rates. And while many of these high-growth stocks deserved to sell off hard (as their valuations soared during the 0% interest rate bubble, while their earnings remained totally non-existent), Google is not one of them.Rather, Google is a good example of a high-quality growth stock (with tremendous growth trajectory, a strong balance sheet, and powerful cash flows) that has been indiscriminately caught up in the recent growth-stock sell-off. In fact, it is one of the four highly compelling opportunities we highlight in our new report: \"When the Market Pukes: Buy These 4 Stocks in Buckets.\" Things can still get much worse before they get better, but in the long term we expect Google shares are going dramatically higher. We are currently long Google.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":61,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9989886233,"gmtCreate":1665969127522,"gmtModify":1676537684531,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ty","listText":"Ty","text":"Ty","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9989886233","repostId":"2276758809","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2276758809","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1665946740,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2276758809?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-17 02:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla, Netflix Set to Report Earnings: What to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2276758809","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Third-quarter earnings season picks up this week, with more than 60 S&P 500 companies scheduled to r","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Third-quarter earnings season picks up this week, with more than 60 S&P 500 companies scheduled to report.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) has long been watched as the bellwether for consumer strength amid rising recession risks in recent months, and its latest resilience demonstrated in the September quarter with a double beat, paired with positive commentary on the business's strengths, sets a positive tone for fiscal 2023 despite looming macro uncertainties.</p><p>Apple's September-quarter results suggest that affluent spend on premium products remains resilient, despite risks of overall consumer confidence deterioration in the near term with buckling budgets amid rising interest rates and inflation. This is further corroborated by stronger iPhone 14 Pro model sales compared with relatively lackluster take-rates on the new smartphone family's base model equivalents.</p><p>We believe Apple's resilience demonstrated in the September quarter is also a result of prudent business management imposed at the decision-making level. This includes pulling forward the iPhone 14 launch to improve fiscal 2022 performance while allowing Apple to take advantage of earlier-than-expected holiday-season shopping trends this year as consumers spread out spending habits as budgets tighten amid an inflationary environment. Time and again, the value of Apple's prudent management at the decision-making level has shone through, playing a critical role in mitigating some of the impact from worsening consumer weakness observed in recent months that could have led to softer fundamentals.</p><p>Meanwhile, management's allusion to "strength of [Apple's] ecosystem, unmatched customer loyalty, and [an] active installed base of devices [reaching] a new all-time high" kicks off fiscal 2023 with a strong positive note, underscoring the value of its pervasive ecosystem of high-demand hardware and complementary services that have become increasingly entwined with many aspects of daily personal settings, big and small. It is also consistent with rising investors' concerns about the impact of China - a critical market for Apple that showed signs of cracking after the company unleashed a rare round of discounts to attract demand over the summer.</p><p>But sustained growth in the higher-margin Services segment continues to demonstrate the value of Apple's sprawling influence over the consumer end-market. This is further corroborated by Apple's earnings beat, underscoring the strength of Services' margins despite the tough consumer backdrop during the September quarter.</p><p>While the stock has not lost as much of its value compared to its tech peers and the broader market amid this year's selloff, which raises concerns that it may become more "vulnerable" to further multiple contraction in the near-term given increasingly fragile market sentiment, we believe it will continue to fare better than most given the underlying business' robust fundamentals. Specifically, the robust momentum in Services maintained throughout the rising competition and deteriorating consumer sentiment in the third quarter continues to support its potential in ultimately accounting for half of Apple's valuation over the longer term, which reinforces the stock's$3 trillion thesis. Paired with Apple's upbeat F4Q22 results and management's positive tone on the forward prospects despite looming macro challenges, any near-term market volatility would likely continue to create compelling entry points for capitalizing on longer-term upsides.</p><p><b>Profitable Growth is Key - And Services is Here For It</b></p><p>Apple's Services segment demonstrated slower-than-expected but sustained growth in the September quarter, with sales increasing 5% y/y (inclusive of FX headwinds) and margins maintaining in the 70%-range despite inflationary pressures and consumer weakness. As discussed in our previous coverage on the stock, Apple's Services segment is becoming increasingly core to the company's long-term growth and profitability trajectory, especially with improved technological advancements in recent years and overall consumer weakness in the near-term lengthening upgrade cycles on devices.</p><p>This is also music to investors' ears, as preference migrates from growth to profitability amid a souring macroeconomic outlook.</p><blockquote>In 2017, Apple - under the leadership of Tim Cook - vowed todoubleits services revenue by 2020. Since then, the segment has delivered with a multi-year compounded annual growth rate ("CAGR") of more than 20%, boasting close to $68.5 billion in annual revenues during fiscal 2021, and approaching $80 billion in the current fiscal year ending this week. Earlier this year, Wall Street predicted that Apple's services segment amounts to a$1.5 trillionvalue on its own, similar to our own predictions which will be discussed in further detail below.</blockquote><blockquote>Although services sales growth has decelerated from its heights last year due to the moderation in demand from pulled-forward subscriptions during the pandemic era alongside broad-based macro weakness, the segment continues to boast robust double-digit expansion, reinforcing the bullish thesis surrounding Apple's sustained long-term growth and profitability trajectory.</blockquote><blockquote>Source: "Apple Services Is On A Critical Mission"</blockquote><p>We see Services' critical role in safeguarding Apple's bottom line continuing into the upcoming holiday season, despite light growth and a slight miss as expected during the fiscal fourth quarter. We see our previously discussed base case where Services will continue to lead growth alongside hardware sales as a highly likely scenario as Apple navigates through macro challenges in the near term. And the company's recent decision to raise prices on some of its core Services offerings - including Apple TV+, Apple Music and the Apple One bundle - will likely give the segment's momentum another leg up heading into fiscal 2023, as opposed to weighing further on weakening consumer sentiment since Apple has a strong value proposition to do so.</p><p><b>Apple TV+</b></p><p>Apple raised the monthly Apple TV+ subscription rate from $4.99 to $6.99, and annual subscription rate from $49 to $69, which went into effect earlier this week. While the price hike for Apple TV+ is not small - a whopping 40%+ - it remains competitive relative to rival streaming platforms spanning Netflix(NFLX), Disney+(DIS), and HBO Max(WBD), to name a few, including their respective ad-supported tiers that are / will be marketed as a "cheaper" alternative.</p><p>We also believe Apple has the right value proposition for jacking up Apple TV+'s pricing, which will effectively help reduce potential churn in the aftermath. Specifically, Apple TV+ was "introduced at a very low price because it started with just a few shows and movies." But now, it has grown into an extensive library of "award-winning and broadly acclaimed series, feature films, documentaries, and kids and family entertainment," which is further corroborated by its rapidly rising global market share of more than 6%, putting rival platforms on notice.</p><p>Yet, at the new price tag of $6.99 per month, Apple TV+ - which is currently ad-free and offers unlimited access to its entire catalogue of scripted and non-scripted content, alongside live sporting events such as "Friday Night Baseball" - the streaming platform still beats equivalents in the pricing segment. This includes Netflix and Disney+'s upcoming ad-supported tier priced at $6.99 and $7.99 per month, respectively, and HBO Max's ad-supported tier priced at $10 per month, with some not even offering access to live sporting events, which is a key demand driver in streaming that Apple TV+ is benefiting from. This continues to underscore Apple TV+'s pricing advantage amid weakening consumer sentiment, with its latest price hike still more competitive than similarly-priced offerings by peers, while contributing meaningfully to the Services segment profit margins over the longer term.</p><p><b>Apple Music</b></p><p>The monthly subscription rate for Apple Music will increase from $9.99 to $10.99 for individuals, and the annual subscription rate from $99 to $109. This would effectively make the service more expensive than key rival Spotify's (SPOT) equivalent which is currently priced at $9.99 per month still.</p><p>The price hike was implemented to compensate for increasing content licensing costs for creators. Although the price increase for Apple Music subscriptions may seem like it will be another blow to the service's already laggard market share(~15%) compared to Spotify's (>30%), we believe it will give Apple a leg up from a business and valuation perspective.</p><p>Specifically, Spotify currently reels from narrowing profit margins due to the same cost increases identified by Apple, underscoring that similar price hikes will likely be coming soon anyway. As such, we view the increase to Apple Music prices as a strategic move that will not only contribute positively to the Services segment's bottom line but also without the risks of material churn despite consumer weakness.</p><p><b>Apple One Bundle</b></p><p>The Apple One bundle - which allows up to six service subscriptions at a discounted price - has also implemented price increases across all of its variants offered. The standard bundle (individual subscription for Apple Music, TV+, Arcade, and iCloud+ with 50GB storage) will have its monthly subscription rate increase from $14.95 to $16.95; family bundle (five-people subscription for Apple Music, TV+, Arcade, and iCloud+ with total 200GB storage) from $19.95 to $22.95; and Premier bundle (same as family bundle, plus News+ and Fitness+) from $29.95 to $32.95.</p><p>The Apple One bundle has been a key contributor to overall growth observed in Apple's service subscription volumes and overall traction since its introduction in fiscal 2021, attracting new users to pay for subscription services that they otherwise would not have subscribed to without the bundle discount. The bundle discount - even after the recent price increase - adds another positive touch to the service-specific value propositions for subscribers as discussed in the earlier section, which we view as a critical factor to mitigating risks of churn, while further bolstering Services growth.</p><p>The pricing advantage in Apple's Services segment is expected to contribute positively towards its longer-term valuation of about $1.5 trillion alone. Not only would it further improve the segment's profit margins - an increasingly prominent driver of Apple's free cash flows - but also help bolster the funding needed to support further expansion into additional services and upgrades that will aid penetration into a broader subscriber base over the longer term.</p><p><b>Near-Term Investment Risks to Consider</b></p><p><b>China Risks:</b> This has accordingly introduced demand risks to one of Apple's most core operating regions - China currently accounts of about a fifth of the company's consolidated sales and a quarter of the consolidated income. Concerns of said demand risks are further corroborated by the rare sighting of a direct pricing discount on certain devices introduced over the summer in China. Even during seasonality promotions - like back-to-school, Black Friday, and/or holiday-season sales - Apple has hardly ever offered direct pricing discounts, opting for gift card rebates on bundle purchases and/or gift-with-purchases instead.</p><p>In addition to demand risks, Apple also faces supply risks and geopolitical risks in the region.</p><p>Yet, we believe Apple has a few levers to pull still that can compensate for the said risks. On the supply front, Apple's importance to suppliers worldwide gives it leverage needed to compensate for supply-risk-driven cost efficiencies. This is consistent with Apple's power in price negotiations with key suppliers like Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM), as well as previous observations that the tech giant's "size and importance to suppliers" was able to help it secure key components better than peers during the peak of supply shortages. Meanwhile, on the demand front, increasing momentum in Services as discussed in the foregoing analysis is expected to partially shield Apple from hardware demand risks in China within the foreseeable future, especially with robust market share gains observed across core operating regions like the U.S. and Europe.</p><p><b>Macro Risks:</b> FX and consumer slowdown are the biggest macro risks facing Apple today. FX risks are inevitable given the company's massive overseas operations amid a surging dollar environment as the Fed remains fixed on an aggressive rate hike trajectory to counter runaway inflation. And on the consumer slowdown front, Apple's upbeat showing for the September quarter also supports continued resilience relative to peers spanning PC/smartphone makers and service providers that have been losing market share.</p><p>In our view, we believe Mac and iPad sales are most susceptible to the near-term consumer slowdown, despite better-than-expected performance in the fiscal fourth quarter. First, the segments have already benefited from pulled-forward demand in the pandemic era, meaning forward momentum will likely remain moderate, especially with the looming economic downturn. Second, lost sales driven by supply chain constraints (most prominent in iPad segment) will likely see some of it becoming permanent instead of delayed due to consumers dialing back on discretionary spending amid deteriorating economic conditions. Lastly, previous expectations for stronger commercial IT spending that have benefited enterprise demand for Apple devices will likely moderate as well as budgets pullback to brace for near-term macroeconomic uncertainties. Worsening market trends are also contributing to anticipated challenges on Mac and iPad demand within the foreseeable future - the latest tally of global PC shipments in the calendar third quarter showed an accelerated decline this year, falling 6.8% y/y in 1Q22, 15% y/y in 2Q22, and 20% y/y in 3Q22, with 4Q22 numbers expected to worsen as consumers shun big-ticket items due to weakening spending power.</p><p>Yet, momentum in Services paired with Apple's pricing advantage as discussed in the foregoing analysis remains a key business strength that is expected to partially cushion some of the near-term impact on the macro-driven slowdown in product demand. Product upgrades, such as the latest introduction of a new Mac and iPad line-up retrofitted with next-generation Apple silicon, will likely help salvage product demand as well. This is further corroborated by Apple's rapid climb to the top, dethroning legacy PC makers like Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), HP (HPE), and Dell (DELL) to become theindustry leader in the first half of the year.</p><p><b>Lengthening Product Cycle Risks:</b> Improving technology at Apple is also lengthening the upgrade cycle on its line-up of devices, which will potentially stagger the Products segment's growth outlook over the longer term. But Apple still has many levers to pull from a pricing and technology point-of-view to counter risks of growth slowdown due to lengthening product cycles in our opinion. For instance, Apple's transition to in-house designed silicon is a key advantage that will help attract demand stemming from both upgrades and switches and partially offset the growth slowdown in Products given their lengthened lifecycles.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) has long been watched as the bellwether for consumer strength amid rising recession risks in recent months, and its latest resilience demonstrated in the September quarter with a double beat, paired with positive commentary on the business's strengths, sets a positive tone for fiscal 2023 despite looming macro uncertainties.Apple's September-quarter results suggest that affluent spend on premium products remains resilient, despite risks of overall consumer confidence deterioration in the near term with buckling budgets amid rising interest rates and inflation. This is further corroborated by stronger iPhone 14 Pro model sales compared with relatively lackluster take-rates on the new smartphone family's base model equivalents.We believe Apple's resilience demonstrated in the September quarter is also a result of prudent business management imposed at the decision-making level. This includes pulling forward the iPhone 14 launch to improve fiscal 2022 performance while allowing Apple to take advantage of earlier-than-expected holiday-season shopping trends this year as consumers spread out spending habits as budgets tighten amid an inflationary environment. Time and again, the value of Apple's prudent management at the decision-making level has shone through, playing a critical role in mitigating some of the impact from worsening consumer weakness observed in recent months that could have led to softer fundamentals.Meanwhile, management's allusion to \"strength of [Apple's] ecosystem, unmatched customer loyalty, and [an] active installed base of devices [reaching] a new all-time high\" kicks off fiscal 2023 with a strong positive note, underscoring the value of its pervasive ecosystem of high-demand hardware and complementary services that have become increasingly entwined with many aspects of daily personal settings, big and small. It is also consistent with rising investors' concerns about the impact of China - a critical market for Apple that showed signs of cracking after the company unleashed a rare round of discounts to attract demand over the summer.But sustained growth in the higher-margin Services segment continues to demonstrate the value of Apple's sprawling influence over the consumer end-market. This is further corroborated by Apple's earnings beat, underscoring the strength of Services' margins despite the tough consumer backdrop during the September quarter.While the stock has not lost as much of its value compared to its tech peers and the broader market amid this year's selloff, which raises concerns that it may become more \"vulnerable\" to further multiple contraction in the near-term given increasingly fragile market sentiment, we believe it will continue to fare better than most given the underlying business' robust fundamentals. Specifically, the robust momentum in Services maintained throughout the rising competition and deteriorating consumer sentiment in the third quarter continues to support its potential in ultimately accounting for half of Apple's valuation over the longer term, which reinforces the stock's$3 trillion thesis. Paired with Apple's upbeat F4Q22 results and management's positive tone on the forward prospects despite looming macro challenges, any near-term market volatility would likely continue to create compelling entry points for capitalizing on longer-term upsides.Profitable Growth is Key - And Services is Here For ItApple's Services segment demonstrated slower-than-expected but sustained growth in the September quarter, with sales increasing 5% y/y (inclusive of FX headwinds) and margins maintaining in the 70%-range despite inflationary pressures and consumer weakness. As discussed in our previous coverage on the stock, Apple's Services segment is becoming increasingly core to the company's long-term growth and profitability trajectory, especially with improved technological advancements in recent years and overall consumer weakness in the near-term lengthening upgrade cycles on devices.This is also music to investors' ears, as preference migrates from growth to profitability amid a souring macroeconomic outlook.In 2017, Apple - under the leadership of Tim Cook - vowed todoubleits services revenue by 2020. Since then, the segment has delivered with a multi-year compounded annual growth rate (\"CAGR\") of more than 20%, boasting close to $68.5 billion in annual revenues during fiscal 2021, and approaching $80 billion in the current fiscal year ending this week. Earlier this year, Wall Street predicted that Apple's services segment amounts to a$1.5 trillionvalue on its own, similar to our own predictions which will be discussed in further detail below.Although services sales growth has decelerated from its heights last year due to the moderation in demand from pulled-forward subscriptions during the pandemic era alongside broad-based macro weakness, the segment continues to boast robust double-digit expansion, reinforcing the bullish thesis surrounding Apple's sustained long-term growth and profitability trajectory.Source: \"Apple Services Is On A Critical Mission\"We see Services' critical role in safeguarding Apple's bottom line continuing into the upcoming holiday season, despite light growth and a slight miss as expected during the fiscal fourth quarter. We see our previously discussed base case where Services will continue to lead growth alongside hardware sales as a highly likely scenario as Apple navigates through macro challenges in the near term. And the company's recent decision to raise prices on some of its core Services offerings - including Apple TV+, Apple Music and the Apple One bundle - will likely give the segment's momentum another leg up heading into fiscal 2023, as opposed to weighing further on weakening consumer sentiment since Apple has a strong value proposition to do so.Apple TV+Apple raised the monthly Apple TV+ subscription rate from $4.99 to $6.99, and annual subscription rate from $49 to $69, which went into effect earlier this week. While the price hike for Apple TV+ is not small - a whopping 40%+ - it remains competitive relative to rival streaming platforms spanning Netflix(NFLX), Disney+(DIS), and HBO Max(WBD), to name a few, including their respective ad-supported tiers that are / will be marketed as a \"cheaper\" alternative.We also believe Apple has the right value proposition for jacking up Apple TV+'s pricing, which will effectively help reduce potential churn in the aftermath. Specifically, Apple TV+ was \"introduced at a very low price because it started with just a few shows and movies.\" But now, it has grown into an extensive library of \"award-winning and broadly acclaimed series, feature films, documentaries, and kids and family entertainment,\" which is further corroborated by its rapidly rising global market share of more than 6%, putting rival platforms on notice.Yet, at the new price tag of $6.99 per month, Apple TV+ - which is currently ad-free and offers unlimited access to its entire catalogue of scripted and non-scripted content, alongside live sporting events such as \"Friday Night Baseball\" - the streaming platform still beats equivalents in the pricing segment. This includes Netflix and Disney+'s upcoming ad-supported tier priced at $6.99 and $7.99 per month, respectively, and HBO Max's ad-supported tier priced at $10 per month, with some not even offering access to live sporting events, which is a key demand driver in streaming that Apple TV+ is benefiting from. This continues to underscore Apple TV+'s pricing advantage amid weakening consumer sentiment, with its latest price hike still more competitive than similarly-priced offerings by peers, while contributing meaningfully to the Services segment profit margins over the longer term.Apple MusicThe monthly subscription rate for Apple Music will increase from $9.99 to $10.99 for individuals, and the annual subscription rate from $99 to $109. This would effectively make the service more expensive than key rival Spotify's (SPOT) equivalent which is currently priced at $9.99 per month still.The price hike was implemented to compensate for increasing content licensing costs for creators. Although the price increase for Apple Music subscriptions may seem like it will be another blow to the service's already laggard market share(~15%) compared to Spotify's (>30%), we believe it will give Apple a leg up from a business and valuation perspective.Specifically, Spotify currently reels from narrowing profit margins due to the same cost increases identified by Apple, underscoring that similar price hikes will likely be coming soon anyway. As such, we view the increase to Apple Music prices as a strategic move that will not only contribute positively to the Services segment's bottom line but also without the risks of material churn despite consumer weakness.Apple One BundleThe Apple One bundle - which allows up to six service subscriptions at a discounted price - has also implemented price increases across all of its variants offered. The standard bundle (individual subscription for Apple Music, TV+, Arcade, and iCloud+ with 50GB storage) will have its monthly subscription rate increase from $14.95 to $16.95; family bundle (five-people subscription for Apple Music, TV+, Arcade, and iCloud+ with total 200GB storage) from $19.95 to $22.95; and Premier bundle (same as family bundle, plus News+ and Fitness+) from $29.95 to $32.95.The Apple One bundle has been a key contributor to overall growth observed in Apple's service subscription volumes and overall traction since its introduction in fiscal 2021, attracting new users to pay for subscription services that they otherwise would not have subscribed to without the bundle discount. The bundle discount - even after the recent price increase - adds another positive touch to the service-specific value propositions for subscribers as discussed in the earlier section, which we view as a critical factor to mitigating risks of churn, while further bolstering Services growth.The pricing advantage in Apple's Services segment is expected to contribute positively towards its longer-term valuation of about $1.5 trillion alone. Not only would it further improve the segment's profit margins - an increasingly prominent driver of Apple's free cash flows - but also help bolster the funding needed to support further expansion into additional services and upgrades that will aid penetration into a broader subscriber base over the longer term.Near-Term Investment Risks to ConsiderChina Risks: This has accordingly introduced demand risks to one of Apple's most core operating regions - China currently accounts of about a fifth of the company's consolidated sales and a quarter of the consolidated income. Concerns of said demand risks are further corroborated by the rare sighting of a direct pricing discount on certain devices introduced over the summer in China. Even during seasonality promotions - like back-to-school, Black Friday, and/or holiday-season sales - Apple has hardly ever offered direct pricing discounts, opting for gift card rebates on bundle purchases and/or gift-with-purchases instead.In addition to demand risks, Apple also faces supply risks and geopolitical risks in the region.Yet, we believe Apple has a few levers to pull still that can compensate for the said risks. On the supply front, Apple's importance to suppliers worldwide gives it leverage needed to compensate for supply-risk-driven cost efficiencies. This is consistent with Apple's power in price negotiations with key suppliers like Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM), as well as previous observations that the tech giant's \"size and importance to suppliers\" was able to help it secure key components better than peers during the peak of supply shortages. Meanwhile, on the demand front, increasing momentum in Services as discussed in the foregoing analysis is expected to partially shield Apple from hardware demand risks in China within the foreseeable future, especially with robust market share gains observed across core operating regions like the U.S. and Europe.Macro Risks: FX and consumer slowdown are the biggest macro risks facing Apple today. FX risks are inevitable given the company's massive overseas operations amid a surging dollar environment as the Fed remains fixed on an aggressive rate hike trajectory to counter runaway inflation. And on the consumer slowdown front, Apple's upbeat showing for the September quarter also supports continued resilience relative to peers spanning PC/smartphone makers and service providers that have been losing market share.In our view, we believe Mac and iPad sales are most susceptible to the near-term consumer slowdown, despite better-than-expected performance in the fiscal fourth quarter. First, the segments have already benefited from pulled-forward demand in the pandemic era, meaning forward momentum will likely remain moderate, especially with the looming economic downturn. Second, lost sales driven by supply chain constraints (most prominent in iPad segment) will likely see some of it becoming permanent instead of delayed due to consumers dialing back on discretionary spending amid deteriorating economic conditions. Lastly, previous expectations for stronger commercial IT spending that have benefited enterprise demand for Apple devices will likely moderate as well as budgets pullback to brace for near-term macroeconomic uncertainties. Worsening market trends are also contributing to anticipated challenges on Mac and iPad demand within the foreseeable future - the latest tally of global PC shipments in the calendar third quarter showed an accelerated decline this year, falling 6.8% y/y in 1Q22, 15% y/y in 2Q22, and 20% y/y in 3Q22, with 4Q22 numbers expected to worsen as consumers shun big-ticket items due to weakening spending power.Yet, momentum in Services paired with Apple's pricing advantage as discussed in the foregoing analysis remains a key business strength that is expected to partially cushion some of the near-term impact on the macro-driven slowdown in product demand. Product upgrades, such as the latest introduction of a new Mac and iPad line-up retrofitted with next-generation Apple silicon, will likely help salvage product demand as well. This is further corroborated by Apple's rapid climb to the top, dethroning legacy PC makers like Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), HP (HPE), and Dell (DELL) to become theindustry leader in the first half of the year.Lengthening Product Cycle Risks: Improving technology at Apple is also lengthening the upgrade cycle on its line-up of devices, which will potentially stagger the Products segment's growth outlook over the longer term. But Apple still has many levers to pull from a pricing and technology point-of-view to counter risks of growth slowdown due to lengthening product cycles in our opinion. For instance, Apple's transition to in-house designed silicon is a key advantage that will help attract demand stemming from both upgrades and switches and partially offset the growth slowdown in Products given their lengthened lifecycles. The company's potential introduction of a device subscription service would also drive improved economics for its Products segment over the longer term.Nonetheless, hardware sales are expected to imminently grow slower than Apple's services sales, given product revenue cycles are comparatively lengthier. For services, recurring revenues stemming from subscriptions come on a monthly or annual basis. But for products like iPhones and Macs, their lifecycles have grown from two years in the past to now aboutthreetofouryears and more than five years, respectively, thanks to continuous technological improvements. To put into perspective, the standard iPhone 14 starts at $799, which translates to about $266 in revenue per share if broken down based on a three-year lifespan. Comparatively, an annual subscription for the Apple One Bundle starts at [$203.40 per year (or $16.95 per month)], which is not too far off from the average annual revenue per iPhone, while boasting significantly more profitable margins. And while Apple's iPhone sales may be benefiting from broader industry tailwinds stemming from 5G transition, its large installed base is bound slow in growth based on the law of large numbers, signalling the double-digit multi-year CAGRs it once enjoyed are no more. It is no wonder that the company has been reportedly working on the launch of aproduct subscription modelto safeguard better economics over the longer term.Source: \"Apple Services Is On A Critical Mission\"Final ThoughtsMarket sentiment is becoming increasingly fragile, with many investors looking to the performance of large and mega caps - especially Apple - for hints on what forward consumer sentiment might look like and what they mean for the broader tech sector and the economy overall ahead of rising recession risks.

They want to reduce the risk of causing an unnecessarily sharp slowdown. Others have said it is too soon for those discussions becausehigh inflationis proving to be more persistent and broad.</p><p>The Fedhas raised its benchmark federal-funds rateby 0.75 point at each of its past three meetings, most recently in September, bringing the rate to a range between 3% and 3.25%. Officials are raising rates at the most aggressive pace since the early 1980s. Until June, they hadn’t raised rates by 0.75 point since 1994.</p><p>Fed officials want higher borrowing costs and lower asset prices to slow economic activity by curbing spending, hiring and investment. They expect that to reduce demand and lower inflation over time.</p><p>Fed policy makers face a series of decisions. First, do they raise rates by a smaller half-point increment in December? And if so, how do they explain to the public that they aren’t backing down in their fight to prevent inflation from becoming entrenched?</p><p>Markets rallied in July and August on expectations that the Fed might slow rate rises. That conflicted with the central bank’s goals because easier financial conditions stimulate spending and economic growth. The rally prompted Fed ChairmanJerome Powellto redraft a major speech in late August to disabuse investors of any misperceptions about hisinflation-fighting commitment.</p><p>If officials are entertaining a half-point rate rise in December, they would want to prepare investors for that decision in the weeks after their Nov. 1-2 meeting without prompting another sustained rally.</p><p>One possible solution would be for Fed officials to approve a half-point increase in December, while using their new economic projections to show they might lift rates somewhat higher in 2023 than they projected last month.</p><p>The Fed’s policies work through financial markets. Changes to the anticipated trajectory of rates—and not just what the Fed does at any meeting—can influence broader financial conditions.</p><p>Cleveland Fed PresidentLoretta Mesterhas signaled she would favor rate rises of 0.75 point at each of the Fed’s next two meetings because there hasn’t been progress on inflation. “We can’t let wishful thinking drive our policy decisions,” she said on Oct. 6.</p><p>Some officials have said they want to see proof that inflation is falling before easing up on rate increases. “Given our frankly disappointing lack of progress on curtailing inflation, I expect we will be well above 4% by the end of the year,” said Philadelphia Fed PresidentPatrick Harkerin remarks Thursday in Vineland, N.J.</p><p>Meanwhile, Fed Vice ChairwomanLael Brainardand some other officials have recently hinted at unease with raising rates by 0.75 point beyond next month’s meeting. In a speech on Oct. 10, Ms. Brainard laid out a case for pausing rate rises at some point, noting how they influence the economy over time.</p><p>Other colleagues are concerned about the danger of raising rates too high. Chicago Fed PresidentCharles Evanstold reporters on Oct. 10 he was worried about assumptions that the Fed could just cut rates if it decided they were too high. Promptly lowering rates is always easier in theory than in practice, he said.</p><p>Mr. Evans said he would prefer to find a rate level that restricted economic growth enough to lower inflation and hold it there even if the Fed faced “a few not-so-great reports” on inflation.</p><p>“I worry that if the way you judge it is, ‘Oh, another bad inflation report—it must be that we need more [rate hikes],’… that puts us at somewhat greater risk of responding overly aggressive,” he said.</p><p>Kansas City Fed PresidentEsther Georgealso last week said she favored moving “steadier and slower” on rate increases. “A series of very super-sized rate increases might cause you to oversteer and not be able to see those turning points,” she said in a webinar on Oct. 14.</p><p>The ultimate result is likely to come down to what Mr. Powell decides as he seeks to fashion a consensus.</p><p>Officials will have two more months of several widely watched economic indicators before their meeting in mid-December, including on hiring and inflation. They pay close attention to a detailed measure of worker compensation called the employment-cost index, and the Labor Department report covering the July-to-September quarter is set for release on Oct. 28.</p><p>One challenge is that some of the strongest support for slowing down increases comes from so-called policy doves, who have traditionally favored easier monetary policy. Last year, those officials argued most forcefully for waiting to remove stimulus policies. Now, with inflation running near a four-decade high, it could be harder for their arguments to gain traction, saidNeil Dutta, an economist at research firm Renaissance Macro.</p><p>“At critical junctures in the monetary-policy decision-making process, they’ve been spectacularly wrong,” said Mr. Dutta. “The doves are in the penalty box. There are costs to being wrong at key turning points over the last 18 to 24 months.”</p><p>Another concern is that inflation pressures have broadened despite some signs of potential relief. Commodity prices have fallen this summer. Easing supply-chain bottlenecks could lead to deceleration in goods prices, and thehousing market is entering a deep slump.</p><p>But astrong labor marketcould lead to persistent wage growth thatboosts prices in the labor-intensive services sector.That could keep prices rising on everything from haircuts to car repairs to veterinarian visits.</p><p>“The problem for me with trying to say, ‘Hey, it’s time to pause,’ is we’re not even sure that we’ve got rates high enough to push services inflation down,” Minneapolis Fed PresidentNeel Kashkarisaid Tuesday.</p><p>Investors in interest-rate futures markets now expect the Fed to raise rates to 5% by the spring, according to CME Group. Last month, most officials projected lifting rates to at least 4.6% next year.</p><p>If officials decide to raise rates by 0.5 point, or 50 basis points, in December, they would have reason to worry about triggering another market rally, saidKathy Bostjancic, chief U.S. economist at Oxford Economics. “The equity market has been so eager to see pivots by the Fed,” she said. “Fed officials have to explain that 50 basis points is still a meaningful increase.”</p><p>Investors are anticipating a sequence of pivots, from a slowdown in rate rises to a stop in rate rises to rate cuts. “They keep jumping ahead to the last pivot, and we’re a long way from the Fed cutting rates,” said Ms. Bostjancic.</p><p>The July rally reversed part of an earlier run-up in mortgage rates, which in turn supported a rebound in the housing market. If another market rally erupted this fall, the Fed might have to raise rates more than anticipated to slow down the economy, saidJason Furman, a Harvard University economist who served as a top adviser to former President Obama.</p><p>“The last thing you want is…to raise rates even more to undo all that,” said Mr. Furman.</p></body></html>","source":"wsj_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

They want to reduce the risk of causing an unnecessarily sharp slowdown. Others have said it is too soon for those discussions becausehigh inflationis proving to be more persistent and broad.The Fedhas raised its benchmark federal-funds rateby 0.75 point at each of its past three meetings, most recently in September, bringing the rate to a range between 3% and 3.25%. Officials are raising rates at the most aggressive pace since the early 1980s. Until June, they hadn’t raised rates by 0.75 point since 1994.Fed officials want higher borrowing costs and lower asset prices to slow economic activity by curbing spending, hiring and investment. They expect that to reduce demand and lower inflation over time.Fed policy makers face a series of decisions. First, do they raise rates by a smaller half-point increment in December? And if so, how do they explain to the public that they aren’t backing down in their fight to prevent inflation from becoming entrenched?Markets rallied in July and August on expectations that the Fed might slow rate rises. That conflicted with the central bank’s goals because easier financial conditions stimulate spending and economic growth. The rally prompted Fed ChairmanJerome Powellto redraft a major speech in late August to disabuse investors of any misperceptions about hisinflation-fighting commitment.If officials are entertaining a half-point rate rise in December, they would want to prepare investors for that decision in the weeks after their Nov. 1-2 meeting without prompting another sustained rally.One possible solution would be for Fed officials to approve a half-point increase in December, while using their new economic projections to show they might lift rates somewhat higher in 2023 than they projected last month.The Fed’s policies work through financial markets. Changes to the anticipated trajectory of rates—and not just what the Fed does at any meeting—can influence broader financial conditions.Cleveland Fed PresidentLoretta Mesterhas signaled she would favor rate rises of 0.75 point at each of the Fed’s next two meetings because there hasn’t been progress on inflation. “We can’t let wishful thinking drive our policy decisions,” she said on Oct. 6.Some officials have said they want to see proof that inflation is falling before easing up on rate increases. “Given our frankly disappointing lack of progress on curtailing inflation, I expect we will be well above 4% by the end of the year,” said Philadelphia Fed PresidentPatrick Harkerin remarks Thursday in Vineland, N.J.Meanwhile, Fed Vice ChairwomanLael Brainardand some other officials have recently hinted at unease with raising rates by 0.75 point beyond next month’s meeting. In a speech on Oct. 10, Ms. Brainard laid out a case for pausing rate rises at some point, noting how they influence the economy over time.Other colleagues are concerned about the danger of raising rates too high. Chicago Fed PresidentCharles Evanstold reporters on Oct. 10 he was worried about assumptions that the Fed could just cut rates if it decided they were too high. Promptly lowering rates is always easier in theory than in practice, he said.Mr. Evans said he would prefer to find a rate level that restricted economic growth enough to lower inflation and hold it there even if the Fed faced “a few not-so-great reports” on inflation.“I worry that if the way you judge it is, ‘Oh, another bad inflation report—it must be that we need more [rate hikes],’… that puts us at somewhat greater risk of responding overly aggressive,” he said.Kansas City Fed PresidentEsther Georgealso last week said she favored moving “steadier and slower” on rate increases. “A series of very super-sized rate increases might cause you to oversteer and not be able to see those turning points,” she said in a webinar on Oct. 14.The ultimate result is likely to come down to what Mr. Powell decides as he seeks to fashion a consensus.Officials will have two more months of several widely watched economic indicators before their meeting in mid-December, including on hiring and inflation. They pay close attention to a detailed measure of worker compensation called the employment-cost index, and the Labor Department report covering the July-to-September quarter is set for release on Oct. 28.One challenge is that some of the strongest support for slowing down increases comes from so-called policy doves, who have traditionally favored easier monetary policy. Last year, those officials argued most forcefully for waiting to remove stimulus policies. Now, with inflation running near a four-decade high, it could be harder for their arguments to gain traction, saidNeil Dutta, an economist at research firm Renaissance Macro.“At critical junctures in the monetary-policy decision-making process, they’ve been spectacularly wrong,” said Mr. Dutta. “The doves are in the penalty box. There are costs to being wrong at key turning points over the last 18 to 24 months.”Another concern is that inflation pressures have broadened despite some signs of potential relief. Commodity prices have fallen this summer. Easing supply-chain bottlenecks could lead to deceleration in goods prices, and thehousing market is entering a deep slump.But astrong labor marketcould lead to persistent wage growth thatboosts prices in the labor-intensive services sector.That could keep prices rising on everything from haircuts to car repairs to veterinarian visits.“The problem for me with trying to say, ‘Hey, it’s time to pause,’ is we’re not even sure that we’ve got rates high enough to push services inflation down,” Minneapolis Fed PresidentNeel Kashkarisaid Tuesday.Investors in interest-rate futures markets now expect the Fed to raise rates to 5% by the spring, according to CME Group. Last month, most officials projected lifting rates to at least 4.6% next year.If officials decide to raise rates by 0.5 point, or 50 basis points, in December, they would have reason to worry about triggering another market rally, saidKathy Bostjancic, chief U.S. economist at Oxford Economics. “The equity market has been so eager to see pivots by the Fed,” she said. “Fed officials have to explain that 50 basis points is still a meaningful increase.”Investors are anticipating a sequence of pivots, from a slowdown in rate rises to a stop in rate rises to rate cuts. “They keep jumping ahead to the last pivot, and we’re a long way from the Fed cutting rates,” said Ms. Bostjancic.The July rally reversed part of an earlier run-up in mortgage rates, which in turn supported a rebound in the housing market. If another market rally erupted this fall, the Fed might have to raise rates more than anticipated to slow down the economy, saidJason Furman, a Harvard University economist who served as a top adviser to former President Obama.“The last thing you want is…to raise rates even more to undo all that,” said Mr. Furman.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9983312553,"gmtCreate":1666149801373,"gmtModify":1676537714429,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ty","listText":"Ty","text":"Ty","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9983312553","repostId":"1163149585","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":433,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9983312750,"gmtCreate":1666149828470,"gmtModify":1676537714436,"author":{"id":"4125280586567492","authorId":"4125280586567492","name":"ljxrox","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/89b91e79b63bd48d8dc4dff42380b151","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4125280586567492","authorIdStr":"4125280586567492"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thank you for your information.
