In the U.S., less than 10% of total automobile sales are now EVs. In China, that percentage is higher, with battery electric vehicles (BEVs) accounting for 25% of new sales in September 2023.</p><p>This makes China a critical EV market for investors, and <strong>Nio</strong> is a company that often comes up when researching Chinese EV companies. With EVs slated to capture even more market share in 2024, is Nio a good buy right now?</p><h2 id=\"id_452861976\">Nio is not China&#39;s largest EV producer</h2><p>Although Nio is a popular Chinese EV investment for U.S. investors, it&#39;s far from China&#39;s biggest EV maker. That title belongs to <strong>BYD </strong>(BYDDY). In December, Nio delivered over 18,000 vehicles, up 14% year over year. For 2023, it delivered over 160,000 vehicles, up 31%.</p><p>In comparison, BYD produced over 3 million cars in 2023 and nearly 309,000 in December alone. So size-wise, Nio isn&#39;t even close to BYD.</p><p>But the two are serving different markets. Nio is focused on the luxury segment, while BYD offers more affordable EVs. As a result, Nio will likely never reach the same scale as BYD, but that doesn&#39;t disqualify Nio as a potential investment.</p><p>However, it should be noted that China&#39;s economy isn&#39;t doing particularly well. This could spell trouble for Nio if drivers look to cheaper options instead of more premium ones. While it remains to be seen if this will have an effect in 2024, it&#39;s something to consider before taking a position in Nio.</p><p>Another consideration is its financials.</p><h2 id=\"id_1867433808\">Nio is unprofitable and burning cash quickly</h2><p>Nio is a rapidly growing company. In the third quarter, its sales rose 46% year over year to RMB17.4 billion. However, it isn&#39;t profitable. Nio lost RMB4.8 billion ($658 million) from operations, which isn&#39;t far from breaking even. With RMB5.3 billion in cash on hand ($726 million), Nio is also in danger of running out of money.</p><p>However, in mid-December 2023, Nio announced a $2.2 billion investment from U.S. investment firm CYVN. This will shore up Nio&#39;s finances momentarily, but the company is in a race with the clock to become profitable.</p><p>The fourth quarter also isn&#39;t looking the greatest. Nio only projected to deliver between 47,000 and 49,000 vehicles, yet exceeded expectations by delivering over 50,000. However, thanks to price cuts, Nio&#39;s revenue was only supposed to grow by about 4% on the high end. While the delivery beat may increase its growth rate, growing revenue in the mid-single digits isn&#39;t a great recipe for a company trying to break even.</p><p>Despite that, Nio trades at a premium to established China EV player BYD.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c11990c61e25e979ab838ec73b9f1ee5\" alt=\"NIO PS Ratio data by YCharts\" title=\"NIO PS Ratio data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"466\"/><span>NIO PS Ratio data by YCharts</span></p><p>Considering that BYD grew its Q3 revenue at nearly 40%, purchasing Nio instead of BYD doesn&#39;t seem like a smart investment move.</p><p>There&#39;s a reason why smart investment firms like <strong>Berkshire Hathaway </strong>own BYD stock, not Nio (Berkshire owns 8% of BYD). Investing in China is already hard enough; investors don&#39;t need to add more difficulty by investing in upstarts in a highly competitive industry.</p><p>While Nio may have a great product, the stock doesn&#39;t seem worth the risk.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

In the U.S., less than 10% of total automobile sales are now EVs. In China, that percentage is higher, with battery electric vehicles (BEVs) accounting for 25% of new sales in September 2023.This makes China a critical EV market for investors, and Nio is a company that often comes up when researching Chinese EV companies. With EVs slated to capture even more market share in 2024, is Nio a good buy right now?Nio is not China's largest EV producerAlthough Nio is a popular Chinese EV investment for U.S. investors, it's far from China's biggest EV maker. That title belongs to BYD (BYDDY). In December, Nio delivered over 18,000 vehicles, up 14% year over year. For 2023, it delivered over 160,000 vehicles, up 31%.In comparison, BYD produced over 3 million cars in 2023 and nearly 309,000 in December alone. So size-wise, Nio isn't even close to BYD.But the two are serving different markets. Nio is focused on the luxury segment, while BYD offers more affordable EVs. As a result, Nio will likely never reach the same scale as BYD, but that doesn't disqualify Nio as a potential investment.However, it should be noted that China's economy isn't doing particularly well. This could spell trouble for Nio if drivers look to cheaper options instead of more premium ones. While it remains to be seen if this will have an effect in 2024, it's something to consider before taking a position in Nio.Another consideration is its financials.Nio is unprofitable and burning cash quicklyNio is a rapidly growing company. In the third quarter, its sales rose 46% year over year to RMB17.4 billion. However, it isn't profitable. Nio lost RMB4.8 billion ($658 million) from operations, which isn't far from breaking even. With RMB5.3 billion in cash on hand ($726 million), Nio is also in danger of running out of money.However, in mid-December 2023, Nio announced a $2.2 billion investment from U.S. investment firm CYVN. This will shore up Nio's finances momentarily, but the company is in a race with the clock to become profitable.The fourth quarter also isn't looking the greatest. Nio only projected to deliver between 47,000 and 49,000 vehicles, yet exceeded expectations by delivering over 50,000. However, thanks to price cuts, Nio's revenue was only supposed to grow by about 4% on the high end. While the delivery beat may increase its growth rate, growing revenue in the mid-single digits isn't a great recipe for a company trying to break even.Despite that, Nio trades at a premium to established China EV player BYD.NIO PS Ratio data by YChartsConsidering that BYD grew its Q3 revenue at nearly 40%, purchasing Nio instead of BYD doesn't seem like a smart investment move.There's a reason why smart investment firms like Berkshire Hathaway own BYD stock, not Nio (Berkshire owns 8% of BYD). Investing in China is already hard enough; investors don't need to add more difficulty by investing in upstarts in a highly competitive industry.While Nio may have a great product, the stock doesn't seem worth the risk.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":464,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210190990938240,"gmtCreate":1692338510020,"gmtModify":1692338515147,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hold before dye","listText":"Hold before dye","text":"Hold before dye","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/210190990938240","repostId":"2360039064","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2360039064","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1692337753,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2360039064?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-08-18 13:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Got $5,000? 3 Stocks to Hold for the Next 20 Years","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2360039064","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These industry-leading businesses need to be on your radar as potential long-term investments.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The world is inherently unpredictable.

Dreamstime               The stock market doesn’t believe that the latest stimulus from China will be enough to save the world’s second-largest economy. Just look at          Alibaba.  Shares in          Alibaba        (ticker: BABA) fell 0.7% in U.S. premarket trading on Tuesday, poised to extend declines after the stock dropped 2.4% on Monday. It’s not the move shareholders want to see after China’s central bank cut a spate of lending rates to shore up the country’s economy and boost consumption. At the start of the year, investors were expecting a strong recovery in 2023 after pandemic lockdowns were lifted.

One of China’s largest companies and an e-commerce giant, Alibaba is a good bellwether for domestic economic trends and is sensitive to the Chinese consumer. The          Dow Jones Industrial Average        and          S&P 500        are both set to fall on Tuesday amid a bevy of pressures, but a slip in Alibaba stock signals that investors are specifically gloomy about the efficacy of what increasingly looks like desperate Chinese stimulus. China’s economy fell into a rut in 2022 as the government’s severe zero-Covid lockdown policies stifled a recovery from the pandemic felt elsewhere. Hopes were high for 2023 to deliver a rebound, but it has yet to materialize.  “Monetary stimulus is of limited use in the current environment and won’t be enough, on its own at least, to put a floor beneath growth,” Julian Evans-Pritchard, the head of China economics at research group Capital Economics, wrote in a Tuesday note.

In particular, I am asking you to vote FOR Proposal 4, the reverse split proposal. We believe that if the reverse split proposal is not approved, our ability to prudently raise capital may be compromised, our ability to attract and retain critical talent may be impacted, and our ability to act strategically with regard to the use of our equity in future opportunistic transactions may be constrained, among other things. Implementing a reverse split would provide the flexibility we need to use our common stock for business and/or financial purposes. Our reverse split proposal is a request to support a constructive tool that we believe is essential to achieving our long-term goals.</p> <p><strong>Bionano’s business has been progressing and still requires ongoing innovation and investment.</strong></p> <p>Bionano is focused on transforming traditional cytogenetic workflows into a modern, molecular workflow based on optical genome mapping (OGM). Current cytogenetic workflows are antiquated, slow and fail to provide useful results in roughly 50% of cases. Numerous published studies from laboratories and hospitals around the world have demonstrated that OGM has the potential to replace traditional cytogenetic methods, including fluorescence <em>in situ</em> hybridization (FISH), karyotyping, southern blot and chromosomal microarrays, with the OGM workflow as an alternative that is streamlined, yields useful results in substantially more samples, is less costly, and is simpler and faster. OGM has applications in cancer, genetic disease and cell bioprocessing quality control for drug development.</p> <p>We have made extraordinary progress since the summer of 2020, enabled by the advancements in market development and product development, and accelerated by the capital we raised in early 2021.</p> <ul><li><strong>Our annual revenue grew 227% between 2020 and 2022,</strong> from $8.5M in 2020, to $17.9M in 2021, to $27.8M in 2022</li><li><strong>The installed base of Saphyr® systems for OGM grew 147%</strong> <strong>between 2020 and 2022, </strong>from 97 as of the end of 2020, to 164 as of the end of 2021, to 240 as of the end of 2022</li><li><strong>Sales of nanochannel array flow cells grew substantially </strong>with 6,013 sold in 2020, 12,518 sold in 2021 and 15,375 sold in 2022</li><li><strong>Performance of our products has improved significantly</strong> since the launch of the Saphyr system in 2017, including a 13-fold increase in OGM throughput and a reduction in the price of analyzing a single genome from $1,500 to as low as $450</li><li><strong>Publications describing OGM in clinical research grew substantially</strong> from 23 as of the end of 2020, to 53 as of the end of 2021, to 108 as of the end of 2022 and the number of published clinical genomes using OGM grew from 214 in 2020, to 1,478 in 2021, to 3,092 at the end of 2022</li><li><strong>Our product portfolio in clinical services, which began with an acquisition in 2020, has expanded to include OGM-based laboratory developed tests (LDTs)</strong> for use in diagnosing a genetic disease known as facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) and blood cancers such as different forms of leukemia</li><li><strong>Bionano has completed two acquisitions</strong> that we believe will enable delivery of a streamlined and simplified end-to-end workflow for OGM, a key requirement for routine use customers<br/></li></ul> <p>We believe the progress made in the preceding three years reflects the early adoption of OGM by clinical researchers seeking to adopt a new and novel method and demonstrate its utility. Going forward, our strategy for 2023 through 2025 is to continue that momentum and, among other things, achieve between a 30% to 50% compound annual growth rate for revenue. Our 2023 to 2025 strategy includes:</p> <ul><li><strong>Develop and launch significant new products</strong> <ul><li>Our next generation optical genome mapping system will have an increased throughput of approximately four times that of the current Saphyr system at launch and is expected to eventually reach a 13-fold increase in throughput</li><li>A version of our VIA™ software (currently named NxClinical™) which will integrate OGM data for data visualization, analysis and interpretation alongside next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other data types</li><li>A consumable and protocol for isolation of ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) DNA for use with isotachophoresis (ITP) on the Ionic® system for automated nucleic acid isolation</li></ul> </li><li><strong>Continue developing the market for OGM and clearing the path for reimbursement</strong> of OGM through clinical research and seek FDA clearance to market OGM for clinical use <ul><li>Our clinical studies for genome analysis in pre-natal and post-natal conditions, blood cancers and solid-tumor cancers are expected to continue. We believe the volume of samples analyzed and published combined with health-economic analysis have the potential to result in OGM being included in professional societies’ guidelines for clinical testing.</li><li>We plan to submit an application for a local coverage decision (LCD) to Medicare for reimbursement coverage of OGM for hematologic malignancies.</li><li>We will begin preliminary pre-submission discussion with the FDA regarding clearance of OGM in 2023.</li></ul> </li><li><strong>Retaining and adding key talent</strong> to expand our commercial footprint globally, to develop new applications of OGM and to translate OGM into a technique that is used routinely throughout genome analysis<br/></li></ul> <p><strong>A vote FOR Proposal 4 would enable management to invest prudently in the business and to continue driving progress</strong></p> <p>We believe it is imperative for stockholders to authorize Bionano’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse split, as outlined in Proposal 4, to continue and potentially accelerate the momentum begun in 2020 and to deliver on the strategy outlined above. There are three primary outcomes of a reverse split that management believes are critical to realize:</p> <ul><li><strong>A reverse split would result in potential improvement in the marketability and liquidity of our common stock. </strong>We believe that a higher stock price would make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors, which we believe would improve the marketability and liquidity of our common stock and increase interest and trading in our common stock, including by long-term institutional investors and funds who may not find our shares attractive at its current trading price.</li><li><strong>A reverse split would effectively increase the number of shares of common stock available to issue.</strong> A reverse split would decrease the number of shares of common stock outstanding but would not impact the number of our authorized shares of common stock. At this time, the current number of authorized and unreserved shares available for future issuance: (i) is insufficient to meet our anticipated future capital requirements through equity financings, including pursuant to our “at-the-market” sales agreement with Cowen and Company, LLC; (ii) is insufficient to provide future equity incentive opportunities, which may impact our ability to attract and retain the talent we believe is important to the success of the company; and (iii) may unduly constrain our ability to act strategically with regard to the use of our equity in future opportunistic transactions. Implementing a reverse split would provide the flexibility we need to use our common stock for business and/or financial purposes.</li><li><strong>A reverse split would support ongoing compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements</strong>. Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, which has as one of its continued listing requirements a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share. The closing price of our common stock for the ten consecutive business days between April 17 and April 28 was below $1.00, reaching a low of $0.68 per share on April 21. If the closing price of our common stock remains below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, we would fall out of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If we were to fail to regain compliance, our common stock could be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market, which may lead to a loss of confidence of our customers, collaborators, vendors and employees, which could do irreparable harm to our business and future prospects.<br/></li></ul> <p>In order to ensure that we can respect the voices of those who vote, we issued one share of Series A Preferred Stock to the Chairman of our Board of Directors. The share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes, but those votes must be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by our common stockholders and can only vote on Proposal 4. The votes of the preferred share would not change the voice of shareholders who vote but would simply mirror their votes so that in the event there are more than a majority of the votes cast in favor of Proposal 4, there should be enough votes to pass the proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemed and retired automatically after approval of a reverse stock split proposal pursuant to its terms.</p> <p>For other companies, a request for authorization to effect a reverse split may reflect a sign of distress. We believe that the reverse split proposal is not a sign of distress for Bionano. Instead, it is a mechanism to enable management to prudently raise capital in support of our long-term strategy.</p> <p>Please support management by voting FOR all proxy proposals. Most importantly please support management by voting FOR Proposal 4.</p> <p>Sincerely,</p> <p>Erik Holmlin, PhD<br/>President and CEO<br/>Bionano Genomics, Inc.</p> <p><strong><em>Forward-Looking Statements</em></strong></p> <p><em>This letter contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

In particular, I am asking you to vote FOR Proposal 4, the reverse split proposal. We believe that if the reverse split proposal is not approved, our ability to prudently raise capital may be compromised, our ability to attract and retain critical talent may be impacted, and our ability to act strategically with regard to the use of our equity in future opportunistic transactions may be constrained, among other things. Implementing a reverse split would provide the flexibility we need to use our common stock for business and/or financial purposes. Our reverse split proposal is a request to support a constructive tool that we believe is essential to achieving our long-term goals.</p> <p><strong>Bionano’s business has been progressing and still requires ongoing innovation and investment.</strong></p> <p>Bionano is focused on transforming traditional cytogenetic workflows into a modern, molecular workflow based on optical genome mapping (OGM). Current cytogenetic workflows are antiquated, slow and fail to provide useful results in roughly 50% of cases. Numerous published studies from laboratories and hospitals around the world have demonstrated that OGM has the potential to replace traditional cytogenetic methods, including fluorescence <em>in situ</em> hybridization (FISH), karyotyping, southern blot and chromosomal microarrays, with the OGM workflow as an alternative that is streamlined, yields useful results in substantially more samples, is less costly, and is simpler and faster. OGM has applications in cancer, genetic disease and cell bioprocessing quality control for drug development.</p> <p>We have made extraordinary progress since the summer of 2020, enabled by the advancements in market development and product development, and accelerated by the capital we raised in early 2021.</p> <ul><li><strong>Our annual revenue grew 227% between 2020 and 2022,</strong> from $8.5M in 2020, to $17.9M in 2021, to $27.8M in 2022</li><li><strong>The installed base of Saphyr® systems for OGM grew 147%</strong> <strong>between 2020 and 2022, </strong>from 97 as of the end of 2020, to 164 as of the end of 2021, to 240 as of the end of 2022</li><li><strong>Sales of nanochannel array flow cells grew substantially </strong>with 6,013 sold in 2020, 12,518 sold in 2021 and 15,375 sold in 2022</li><li><strong>Performance of our products has improved significantly</strong> since the launch of the Saphyr system in 2017, including a 13-fold increase in OGM throughput and a reduction in the price of analyzing a single genome from $1,500 to as low as $450</li><li><strong>Publications describing OGM in clinical research grew substantially</strong> from 23 as of the end of 2020, to 53 as of the end of 2021, to 108 as of the end of 2022 and the number of published clinical genomes using OGM grew from 214 in 2020, to 1,478 in 2021, to 3,092 at the end of 2022</li><li><strong>Our product portfolio in clinical services, which began with an acquisition in 2020, has expanded to include OGM-based laboratory developed tests (LDTs)</strong> for use in diagnosing a genetic disease known as facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) and blood cancers such as different forms of leukemia</li><li><strong>Bionano has completed two acquisitions</strong> that we believe will enable delivery of a streamlined and simplified end-to-end workflow for OGM, a key requirement for routine use customers<br/></li></ul> <p>We believe the progress made in the preceding three years reflects the early adoption of OGM by clinical researchers seeking to adopt a new and novel method and demonstrate its utility. Going forward, our strategy for 2023 through 2025 is to continue that momentum and, among other things, achieve between a 30% to 50% compound annual growth rate for revenue. Our 2023 to 2025 strategy includes:</p> <ul><li><strong>Develop and launch significant new products</strong> <ul><li>Our next generation optical genome mapping system will have an increased throughput of approximately four times that of the current Saphyr system at launch and is expected to eventually reach a 13-fold increase in throughput</li><li>A version of our VIA™ software (currently named NxClinical™) which will integrate OGM data for data visualization, analysis and interpretation alongside next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other data types</li><li>A consumable and protocol for isolation of ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) DNA for use with isotachophoresis (ITP) on the Ionic® system for automated nucleic acid isolation</li></ul> </li><li><strong>Continue developing the market for OGM and clearing the path for reimbursement</strong> of OGM through clinical research and seek FDA clearance to market OGM for clinical use <ul><li>Our clinical studies for genome analysis in pre-natal and post-natal conditions, blood cancers and solid-tumor cancers are expected to continue. We believe the volume of samples analyzed and published combined with health-economic analysis have the potential to result in OGM being included in professional societies’ guidelines for clinical testing.</li><li>We plan to submit an application for a local coverage decision (LCD) to Medicare for reimbursement coverage of OGM for hematologic malignancies.</li><li>We will begin preliminary pre-submission discussion with the FDA regarding clearance of OGM in 2023.</li></ul> </li><li><strong>Retaining and adding key talent</strong> to expand our commercial footprint globally, to develop new applications of OGM and to translate OGM into a technique that is used routinely throughout genome analysis<br/></li></ul> <p><strong>A vote FOR Proposal 4 would enable management to invest prudently in the business and to continue driving progress</strong></p> <p>We believe it is imperative for stockholders to authorize Bionano’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse split, as outlined in Proposal 4, to continue and potentially accelerate the momentum begun in 2020 and to deliver on the strategy outlined above. There are three primary outcomes of a reverse split that management believes are critical to realize:</p> <ul><li><strong>A reverse split would result in potential improvement in the marketability and liquidity of our common stock. </strong>We believe that a higher stock price would make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors, which we believe would improve the marketability and liquidity of our common stock and increase interest and trading in our common stock, including by long-term institutional investors and funds who may not find our shares attractive at its current trading price.</li><li><strong>A reverse split would effectively increase the number of shares of common stock available to issue.</strong> A reverse split would decrease the number of shares of common stock outstanding but would not impact the number of our authorized shares of common stock. At this time, the current number of authorized and unreserved shares available for future issuance: (i) is insufficient to meet our anticipated future capital requirements through equity financings, including pursuant to our “at-the-market” sales agreement with Cowen and Company, LLC; (ii) is insufficient to provide future equity incentive opportunities, which may impact our ability to attract and retain the talent we believe is important to the success of the company; and (iii) may unduly constrain our ability to act strategically with regard to the use of our equity in future opportunistic transactions. Implementing a reverse split would provide the flexibility we need to use our common stock for business and/or financial purposes.</li><li><strong>A reverse split would support ongoing compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements</strong>. Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, which has as one of its continued listing requirements a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share. The closing price of our common stock for the ten consecutive business days between April 17 and April 28 was below $1.00, reaching a low of $0.68 per share on April 21. If the closing price of our common stock remains below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, we would fall out of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If we were to fail to regain compliance, our common stock could be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market, which may lead to a loss of confidence of our customers, collaborators, vendors and employees, which could do irreparable harm to our business and future prospects.<br/></li></ul> <p>In order to ensure that we can respect the voices of those who vote, we issued one share of Series A Preferred Stock to the Chairman of our Board of Directors. The share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes, but those votes must be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by our common stockholders and can only vote on Proposal 4. The votes of the preferred share would not change the voice of shareholders who vote but would simply mirror their votes so that in the event there are more than a majority of the votes cast in favor of Proposal 4, there should be enough votes to pass the proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemed and retired automatically after approval of a reverse stock split proposal pursuant to its terms.</p> <p>For other companies, a request for authorization to effect a reverse split may reflect a sign of distress. We believe that the reverse split proposal is not a sign of distress for Bionano. Instead, it is a mechanism to enable management to prudently raise capital in support of our long-term strategy.</p> <p>Please support management by voting FOR all proxy proposals. Most importantly please support management by voting FOR Proposal 4.</p> <p>Sincerely,</p> <p>Erik Holmlin, PhD<br/>President and CEO<br/>Bionano Genomics, Inc.</p> <p><strong><em>Forward-Looking Statements</em></strong></p> <p><em>This letter contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Implementing a reverse split would provide the flexibility we need to use our common stock for business and/or financial purposes.A reverse split would support ongoing compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements. Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, which has as one of its continued listing requirements a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share. The closing price of our common stock for the ten consecutive business days between April 17 and April 28 was below $1.00, reaching a low of $0.68 per share on April 21. If the closing price of our common stock remains below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, we would fall out of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If we were to fail to regain compliance, our common stock could be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market, which may lead to a loss of confidence of our customers, collaborators, vendors and employees, which could do irreparable harm to our business and future prospects. In order to ensure that we can respect the voices of those who vote, we issued one share of Series A Preferred Stock to the Chairman of our Board of Directors. The share of Series A Preferred Stock has 3,000,000,000 votes, but those votes must be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by our common stockholders and can only vote on Proposal 4. The votes of the preferred share would not change the voice of shareholders who vote but would simply mirror their votes so that in the event there are more than a majority of the votes cast in favor of Proposal 4, there should be enough votes to pass the proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemed and retired automatically after approval of a reverse stock split proposal pursuant to its terms. For other companies, a request for authorization to effect a reverse split may reflect a sign of distress. We believe that the reverse split proposal is not a sign of distress for Bionano. Instead, it is a mechanism to enable management to prudently raise capital in support of our long-term strategy. Please support management by voting FOR all proxy proposals. Most importantly please support management by voting FOR Proposal 4. Sincerely, Erik Holmlin, PhDPresident and CEOBionano Genomics, Inc.

automakers to stick to brand values, an NIO executive said.</blockquote><p>An <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">NIO</a> executive said the company won&#39;t get involved in a price war, which has come into focus with the recent sharp price cuts by a large number of internal combustion engine (ICE) automakers.</p><p>NIO will not engage in a price war and will not respond to the current market volatility with price cuts, said Pu Yang, the company&#39;s assistant vice president of sales operations, at a media briefing today.</p><p>NIO believes that the current wave of price cuts is a cyclical fluctuation in the transition from ICE vehicles to smart electric vehicles (EVs), with the main players being ICE models from joint venture brands with limited competitiveness, Pu said, according to minutes shared by several automotive bloggers.</p><p>The cyclical fluctuations brought about by this technological revolution can&#39;t be crossed by price wars and require car companies to stick to their brand values, he said.</p><p>NIO will always ensure the user experience and cope with this cycle by efforts including continuous investment in infrastructure, keeping prices and configurations stable, and full-stack in-house research and development, he said.</p><p>More and more car companies are joining the price war, leading to an increased wait-and-see sentiment among consumers to avoid seeing price cuts soon after purchasing a car.</p><p>NIO&#39;s local counterpart, Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI), has introduced a consumer price-protection benefit that will refund the difference if the price drops within 90 days of their purchase.</p><p>Pu said he saw Li Auto&#39;s move and that NIO had considered whether to issue a similar policy, but for the company, it had previously made it clear that prices would not go down.</p><p>Not only is NIO not dropping prices for 90 days, but prices won&#39;t change for a longer period of time, he said.</p><p>He believes the current plunge in ICE vehicle prices in China will be a landmark event and potentially a watershed moment for the auto industry as a whole.</p><p>Many of the products that have seen significant price cuts are at the end of their life cycle, Pu said, adding that he doesn&#39;t think that will be the norm.</p><p>He believes that the large number of models that have seen significant price cuts are appearing quickly, and that these moves will disappear quickly, and that this will be some sort of catalyst for the development of the new energy vehicle (NEV) market.</p><p>Pu is optimistic about the whole-year performance of the passenger car market in China, and believes that sales will increase compared to last year.</p><p>He mentioned that NIO has seen an increase in the number of visitors to its stores and test drives in recent times, and is confident of growth given the new products the company will have available and the upcoming Shanghai auto show.</p><p>The NIO brand will not make prices lower by introducing single-motor models or models without LiDARs, Pu said, reiterating remarks made by William Li, the company&#39;s founder, chairman and CEO, during an earnings call earlier this month.</p><p>Lower configurations and lower prices are not how NIO wins. The company started from the beginning with a desire to give users a highly configurable, high-quality-of-service experience, he said.</p><p>Pu said he suggested to the company&#39;s management at the time of the ET5&#39;s launch that it could lower the barrier to purchase by eliminating the free battery swap benefit, but that was vetoed by Li.</p><p>The ET5 is a good value when compared to competitors in the same price range as it, especially in terms of intelligence and performance, he said.</p><p>NIO believes that improving service quality will be an effective means of dealing with the competition, including adding 1,000 new battery swap stations this year, he said.</p><p>The penetration rate of NEVs in China will be higher this year, and the total market segment of high-end EVs will be larger, so NIO is expected to achieve better growth, Pu said.</p><p>New products will be an important card for NIO this year, as the company will have more core products on the market this year and delivery is expected to be smoother, he said.</p><p>As for the lower-priced EV market, NIO will cover it through sub-brands, including one codenamed ALPS, he said.</p><li></li></body></html>","source":"cnevpost_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Year to date, the collective market cap of all cryptocurrencies has grown by more than 40% and has once again reclaimed the $1 trillion mark.</p><p>But despite this rally, the majority of cryptocurrencies are still significantly down from their previous all-time highs.</p><p>With a sense of renewed hope and a feeling that the worst might have passed, here are two cryptocurrencies that I find myself unable to stop buying -- and that I think investors should prioritize should a bull market return.</p><h2>The undisputed champ</h2><p>We can&#39;t talk about crypto without mentioning the world&#39;s first and most valuable cryptocurrency: <b>Bitcoin</b>. Despite thousands of cryptocurrencies being created since its launch in 2009, Bitcoin remains at the top of the asset class. As of today, it still makes up more than 40% of all the value in crypto, a sign that Bitcoin is still the crypto of choice for investors.</p><p>Due to this overwhelming majority of value, many other cryptocurrencies&#39; prices are correlated to Bitcoin. Typically, as Bitcoin goes, so does the rest of the market.</p><p>Fortunately, there is reason to believe that Bitcoin could be ready for another leg up and will likely lead the return of a bull market. When evaluating Bitcoin&#39;s price in the past, there seems to be a unique phenomenon that occurs when Bitcoin&#39;s next halving is around a year and a half away.</p><p>Halvings are a mechanism hardwired into Bitcoin&#39;s code that lowers the rate at which new coins enter circulation. Roughly every four years or 210,000 blocks added to the blockchain, the number of Bitcoins awarded to miners is cut in half. In Bitcoin&#39;s earliest days, the reward was 50 Bitcoins, but that has dwindled to just 6.25 today, as multiple halvings have since passed.</p><p>The next halving is scheduled for sometime in May 2024, meaning that we are a little less than a year and a half away from this highly influential event. Based on past data, it seems that Bitcoin&#39;s price bottoms out near this point in the halving cycle. From here, downside risk is typically at its lowest while the potential for profit is at its highest.</p><p>Should Bitcoin behave like it has in the past remains to be seen, as only time will tell. But we can project with a high degree of confidence that this cycle is playing just like years past. If that is the case, Bitcoin is in unique territory that only comes once every four years and could be a great time for investors to buy, as the likelihood that the worst might have passed looks to be more true by the day.</p><h2>The next-best option</h2><p>The world&#39;s second-most valuable cryptocurrency has had its own fair share of success since its creation in 2015. In the last eight years, <b>Ethereum</b>&#39;s rise has paved the way for entire new lucrative and burgeoning sectors of cryptocurrency like decentralized finance (DeFi).</p><p>Unlike Bitcoin, which is resistant to major changes, Ethereum has a host of developers working on fine-tuning its code and even implementing new features.</p><p>One of these new features came in the form of an upgrade known as the London hard fork. This upgrade introduced a new mechanism that would &#34;burn&#34; or permanently remove ether from circulation, effectively turning Ethereum into a deflationary asset.</p><p>Before the London hard fork, Ethereum had an inflation rate of more than 3.5%.

Year to date, the collective market cap of all cryptocurrencies has grown by more than 40% and has once again reclaimed the $1 trillion mark.But despite this rally, the majority of cryptocurrencies are still significantly down from their previous all-time highs.With a sense of renewed hope and a feeling that the worst might have passed, here are two cryptocurrencies that I find myself unable to stop buying -- and that I think investors should prioritize should a bull market return.The undisputed champWe can't talk about crypto without mentioning the world's first and most valuable cryptocurrency: Bitcoin. Despite thousands of cryptocurrencies being created since its launch in 2009, Bitcoin remains at the top of the asset class. As of today, it still makes up more than 40% of all the value in crypto, a sign that Bitcoin is still the crypto of choice for investors.Due to this overwhelming majority of value, many other cryptocurrencies' prices are correlated to Bitcoin. Typically, as Bitcoin goes, so does the rest of the market.Fortunately, there is reason to believe that Bitcoin could be ready for another leg up and will likely lead the return of a bull market. When evaluating Bitcoin's price in the past, there seems to be a unique phenomenon that occurs when Bitcoin's next halving is around a year and a half away.Halvings are a mechanism hardwired into Bitcoin's code that lowers the rate at which new coins enter circulation. Roughly every four years or 210,000 blocks added to the blockchain, the number of Bitcoins awarded to miners is cut in half. In Bitcoin's earliest days, the reward was 50 Bitcoins, but that has dwindled to just 6.25 today, as multiple halvings have since passed.The next halving is scheduled for sometime in May 2024, meaning that we are a little less than a year and a half away from this highly influential event. Based on past data, it seems that Bitcoin's price bottoms out near this point in the halving cycle. From here, downside risk is typically at its lowest while the potential for profit is at its highest.Should Bitcoin behave like it has in the past remains to be seen, as only time will tell. But we can project with a high degree of confidence that this cycle is playing just like years past. If that is the case, Bitcoin is in unique territory that only comes once every four years and could be a great time for investors to buy, as the likelihood that the worst might have passed looks to be more true by the day.The next-best optionThe world's second-most valuable cryptocurrency has had its own fair share of success since its creation in 2015. In the last eight years, Ethereum's rise has paved the way for entire new lucrative and burgeoning sectors of cryptocurrency like decentralized finance (DeFi).Unlike Bitcoin, which is resistant to major changes, Ethereum has a host of developers working on fine-tuning its code and even implementing new features.One of these new features came in the form of an upgrade known as the London hard fork. This upgrade introduced a new mechanism that would \"burn\" or permanently remove ether from circulation, effectively turning Ethereum into a deflationary asset.Before the London hard fork, Ethereum had an inflation rate of more than 3.5%. But since the implementation of the upgrade, the rate at which new ether enters circulation is actually negative. The number fluctuates based on demand, but as of today, Ethereum boasts a -0.074% deflation rate, meaning the total supply of ether is being reduced.It took a while to materialize due to the necessary implementation of The Merge (another Ethereum upgrade launched in September 2022), but with added deflationary pressure, Ethereum's price will likely benefit, as it is now truly subject to the dynamics of a limited supply and increased demand. If a bull market does return and demand for Ethereum picks up, those looking to buy will likely drive up its price as the total supply of ether decreases.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9955488532,"gmtCreate":1675673542626,"gmtModify":1675673546202,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":25,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9955488532","repostId":"2308854213","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2308854213","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1675697292,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2308854213?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-06 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 AI-Powered Growth Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2308854213","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Artificial intelligence will shape the world's future; your portfolio should have some exposure to reflect that.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Artificial intelligence (AI) is a fascinating technology whose potential hasn&#39;t been fully discovered. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RDR.SI\">Incredible</a> programs like ChatGPT have already passed the bar and U.S. medical licensing exam, but other, more practical uses of AI are already available for businesses to utilize.</p><p>Two companies that utilize AI at the core of their software are <b>CrowdStrike</b> and <b>Palantir</b>.

Consumers looked to online retail as they avoided shopping in stores, and auto parts sales also jumped as consumers took advantage of the extra time on their hands to fix up their vehicles. As a result, CarParts.com, the online auto parts retailer formerly known as U.S. Auto Parts, saw revenue growth nearly double in the fourth quarter of 2020 before decelerating as demand and the pandemic disruption normalized.</p><p>Even as pandemic concerns ease, CarParts.com continues to grow its top line by double-digit percentages, taking market share in the industry, and it&#39;s improving its margins on the bottom line as well. In its third-quarter earnings report, revenue rose 16% year over year to $164.8 million, and gross profit increased 19% to $56.1 million. Its adjusted EBITDA also nearly tripled to $6.3 million.</p><p>CarParts.com grew its business by adding new warehouses around the country so it can serve most of its customers with two-day delivery. It&#39;s also innovating with a new Do-It-For-Me service where the company is partnering with mechanics around the country who will seamlessly service customers who bring in CarParts.com parts, allowing them to save money as CarParts.com private-labels most of its merchandise, allowing it to undercut competitors on price.</p><p>Additionally, the company should benefit from the current economic environment, as high interest rates are making new cars more expensive, encouraging car owners to repair their current vehicles rather than replace them. The auto parts sector also tends to do well in recessionary climates.</p><p>Finally, the stock trades at a price-to-sales ratio of 0.6 and just 13 times adjusted EBITDA, making it cheap for a stock with its growth potential.</p><p>If the company can continue growing the top and bottom lines, CarParts.com should be a winner from here.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>2 Stocks Down 55% and 71% to Buy Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n2 Stocks Down 55% and 71% to Buy Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-03-02 23:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/03/01/stocks-down-to-buy-right-now-3m-carparts/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The stock market got off to a solid start in 2023, with the S&P 500 up nearly 4% (after being up as much as 9% early last month).Even with the good start, many individual stocks are still deep in bear...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/03/01/stocks-down-to-buy-right-now-3m-carparts/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MMM":"3M","PRTS":"CarParts"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/03/01/stocks-down-to-buy-right-now-3m-carparts/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2316618792","content_text":"The stock market got off to a solid start in 2023, with the S&P 500 up nearly 4% (after being up as much as 9% early last month).Even with the good start, many individual stocks are still deep in bear market territory, and the Federal Reserve continues to telegraph its intention to keep raising interest rates, which seems even likelier after strong January employment and retail sales reports and a hotter-than-expected personal consumption expenditures reading, which is the Fed's favorite inflation gauge.The good news is that the pressure from rising interest rates and the prospects of a recession are making a lot of quality stocks cheap.

The auto parts sector also tends to do well in recessionary climates.Finally, the stock trades at a price-to-sales ratio of 0.6 and just 13 times adjusted EBITDA, making it cheap for a stock with its growth potential.If the company can continue growing the top and bottom lines, CarParts.com should be a winner from here.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":56,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954802819,"gmtCreate":1676186751631,"gmtModify":1676186756155,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing&nbsp;","listText":"Amazing&nbsp;","text":"Amazing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954802819","repostId":"2310356099","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2310356099","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1676179451,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2310356099?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-12 13:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Smartest Investors Are Buying These 3 Beaten-Down Stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2310356099","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks have all declined over the last year, but they are looking like good values now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Probably the most outstanding single quality that smart investors share is patience.

Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> is improving its earnings quality</h2><p>A combination of supply chain disruptions, a weakening environment for consumer discretionary spending, and adverse foreign currency exchange movements hit Apple in calendar 2022, and some of those issues are likely to extend well into 2023. That said, Apple&#39;s dominant position in the U.S. smartphone market and its opportunity to grow sales and market share worldwide as the number of smartphone users increases haven&#39;t gone away. Moreover, the underlying growth of its higher-margin services business is improving the quality of its earnings.</p><p>While product revenue fell 8% year over year in its recently reported first quarter of fiscal 2023, its services revenue rose 6.4%. It would have increased by closer to 13% without the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates. The growth of Apple&#39;s services revenue (which comes with a gross margin of nearly 71% compared to around 36% for its products segment) is improving Apple&#39;s long-term margin profile. Moreover, services now provide about 20% of Apple&#39;s total revenue (based on its fiscal 2022 results).</p><p>Finally, as CFO Luca Maestri noted during the fiscal Q1 2023 earnings call, &#34;our installed base of active devices grew double digits and achieved all-time records in each geographic segment and in each major product category.&#34; That&#39;s likely to improve Apple&#39;s potential to grow its service revenue.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UPS\">United Parcel Service</a> is focusing on more-profitable deliveries</h2><p>Another example of a company that is facing near-term headwinds but also significantly improving its business is UPS. The company&#39;s revenue declined 2.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022, and CFO Brian Newman said he expects that in 2023, average daily volume in its U.S. domestic segment will be &#34;down slightly,&#34; and average daily volume and revenue in its international segment will decline by low single-digit percentages.</p><p>Still, note that Newman also said U.S. domestic segment revenue would <i>increase </i>by a low single-digit percentage despite that declining volume. That projection speaks to the underlying operational improvements UPS has been making. In a nutshell, management&#39;s transformational strategy to grow revenue from targeted end markets such as small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and the healthcare industry is working.</p><p>Meanwhile, the company&#39;s emphasis on focusing on more-profitable deliveries -- which also entails reducing its lower-margin deliveries for <b>Amazon.com</b> -- means continuing &#34;a mutually agreed path to glide that business down in 2023,&#34; according to Newman.</p><p>As such, UPS should continue to improve its underlying profitability even if a recession in 2023 leads to a revenue decline.</p><p>Management&#39;s guidance for $8 billion in free cash flow (FCF) in 2023 would put UPS on a price-to-forward-FCF ratio of almost 21. That&#39;s a reasonable multiple if the company&#39;s earnings hit a trough this year and recover in the coming years, driven by underlying growth in SMBs, healthcare, and more-profitable e-commerce deliveries.</p><h2>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a>&#39;s wins will come from the cloud</h2><p>The case for buying Alphabet is relatively simple. Solid but slowing growth in its Google services (Search, YouTube ads, and Google Network) will be balanced by the ongoing growth of Google Cloud as it marches toward profitability -- a business in which Alphabet has &#34;really been investing ahead of our revenues,&#34; CFO Ruth Porat said on its recent Q4 earnings call.</p><p>The Google Cloud strategy makes perfect sense considering the potential for long-term cash generation from recurring revenue from customers that are likely to stay with Google Cloud on a multiyear basis.</p><p>As for Google&#39;s other services, if there&#39;s a recession, that will hurt advertising revenue across the board, and the headline figure of a 2% decline in search revenue in the fourth quarter doesn&#39;t look good. Still, in that quarter, Alphabet&#39;s earnings were also pressured by adverse foreign exchange movements. Excluding the impact of those currency exchange headwinds, search revenues &#34;delivered moderate underlying growth in Q4,&#34; according to Porat. Moreover, Google&#39;s overall revenue growth of just 1% was 7% in constant currency.</p><p>All told, Alphabet can look ahead to a year of solid but unspectacular growth. At the same time, Google Cloud is moving toward profitability, and Wall Street expects an incredible $70 billion in FCF, putting it on a forward-price-to-FCF multiple of 19.

But as last year demonstrated, the stock market is completely unpredictable on a year-to-year basis.</p><p>When the going gets tough on Wall Street, investors often turn their attention to tried-and-true industry leaders. It&#39;s why the FAANG stocks have been such popular investments for more than a decade.</p><p>When I say &#34;FAANG&#34; stocks, I&#39;m talking about:</p><ul><li>Facebook, which is now a subsidiary of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a></b></li><li><b>Amazon</b></li><li><b>Apple</b></li><li><b>Netflix</b></li><li>Google, which is now a subsidiary of <b>Alphabet</b></li></ul><p>Among the many reasons investors gravitate to the FAANGs is their clear-cut competitive advantages. For instance, Meta owns four of the most-popular social media sites on the planet, whereas Amazon was expected to bring in nearly 40% of all U.S. online retail sales in 2022, according to a report from eMarketer. These are dominant businesses within their respective industries -- and investors know it.</p><p>But even among the FAANG stocks, there&#39;s a hierarchy of opportunity. In other words, some offer more long-term upside potential than others. Among Meta, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Alphabet, there are two FAANG stocks that have the potential to double your money by 2027.</p><h2>FAANG stock No. 1 that can double your money by 2027: Alphabet</h2><p>The first FAANG stock fully capable of producing a 100% return over the next five years is Alphabet, the parent company of internet search engine Google, autonomous vehicle company Waymo, and streaming platform YouTube.</p><p>If investors were to solely focus on Alphabet&#39;s fourth-quarter operating results, which were released last week, they&#39;d have a hard time believing this company is capable of doubling in value by 2027. Total revenue jumped by just 1% over the prior-year quarter, with ad revenue pretty much declining across the board (Google and YouTube). Ad spending weakness is not uncommon when the winds of the recession begin blowing.</p><p>However, one quarter certainly doesn&#39;t tell the tale when it comes to Alphabet. On a macro basis, investors should recognize the numbers game that very much favors ad-dependent companies. Even though ad spending weakens during economic contractions and recessions, these downturns tend to be short lived. By comparison, the U.S. and global economy can spend years expanding. This means Alphabet&#39;s ad-driven operating segments are growing in lockstep with the U.S. and global economy over time.</p><p>But it&#39;s not just macroeconomic factors working in Alphabet&#39;s favor. In terms of global search engine market share, Google is practically a monopoly. According to data provided by GlobalStats, Google has accounted for 91% or greater of worldwide internet search share since December 2018. Having roughly 90 percentage points more market share than the next-closest competitor helps Alphabet&#39;s ad-pricing power immensely.</p><p>Although Google should remain Alphabet&#39;s primary cash-flow driver for the foreseeable future, the company is investing in numerous other verticals and channels to boost its revenue and, eventually, its profits. As an example, Alphabet is investing heavily in monetizing YouTube Shorts -- short-form videos lasting less than a minute. The company noted during its fourth-quarter conference call that over 50 billion YouTube Shorts are being watched daily, which is a huge audience for advertisers to reach.  For context, this figure stood at 30 billion daily views during the first quarter of 2022.</p><p>Significant investments are also being made in cloud infrastructure service Google Cloud, which climbed to an estimated 9% of worldwide cloud infrastructure spending during the third quarter, based on a report by Canalys. While Google Cloud is still a money-losing segment for Alphabet, enterprise cloud spending is still very much in its infancy. Since the margins associated with cloud services are typically higher than advertising margins, Google Cloud has an opportunity to become a key cash-flow driver by the second half of this decade.</p><p>Alphabet is also relatively inexpensive, given its sustained double-digit growth rates during periods of economic expansion. It&#39;s valued at 20 times Wall Street&#39;s consensus earnings for 2023, and the company closed out 2022 with just over $99 billion in net cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on its balance sheet. If earnings per share were to double between now and 2027 (which seems quite likely), Alphabet stock shouldn&#39;t have any trouble returning 100% for patient investors.</p><h2>FAANG stock No. 2 that can double your money by 2027: Amazon</h2><p>The second FAANG stock with all the tools and intangibles needed to double your money by 2027 is e-commerce juggernaut Amazon.</p><p>Similar to Alphabet, if investors were solely to focus on Amazon&#39;s operating performance during the fourth quarter, they&#39;d be missing the big picture. Though Amazon&#39;s retail segment struggled mightily and the company&#39;s net income plunged 98% from the prior-year period, Amazon&#39;s high-margin operating segments are still unstoppable.</p><p>When most people hear the Amazon name, they immediately think about the company&#39;s online marketplace, which accounts for more U.S. online retail market share than its next 14 closest competitors on a combined basis. But the thing about online retail sales is that it&#39;s a generally low-margin operating segment. While Amazon&#39;s online marketplace has done a phenomenal job of attracting a loyal customer base, it&#39;s ultimately not the operating segment that&#39;ll push Amazon stock to new heights. Rather, it&#39;s a trio of ancillary divisions that generate most of its Amazon&#39;s cash flow and operating income.</p><p>The first of these three key segments is subscription services. The popularity of its e-commerce platform encouraged more than 200 million people worldwide to sign up for a Prime membership. Keep in mind that this &#34;200 million&#34; figure is a company number from April 2021. Between very modest online sales growth since April 2021 and landing distribution exclusivity for the NFL&#39;s <i>Thursday Night Football</i>, the number of Prime members has assuredly grown. Amazon is nearing $37 billion in annual run-rate sales from subscription services.</p><p>The second higher-margin segment fueling Amazon&#39;s growth is advertising services. Having more people view its ever-growing library of content, as well as visit its online marketplace, provides Amazon with abundant pricing power when negotiating with merchants. Despite a difficult environment for ad spending, Amazon recognized 23% year-over-year advertising services sales growth in the fourth quarter (excluding currency movements).</p><p>Finally, there&#39;s cloud service infrastructure segment Amazon Web Services (AWS). The aforementioned Canalys report estimates AWS accounted for 32% of worldwide cloud service spending in the September-ended quarter. Despite representing only 15.6% of Amazon&#39;s net sales in 2022, AWS delivered $22.8 billion in operating income. Every other segment combined for Amazon generated an operating loss of $10.6 billion. AWS is, unquestionably, Amazon&#39;s cash-flow and profit driver.</p><p>Although Amazon is quite pricey when looking at the price-to-earnings ratio, cash flow is the more appropriate measure of value for this company.

But as last year demonstrated, the stock market is completely unpredictable on a year-to-year basis.When the going gets tough on Wall Street, investors often turn their attention to tried-and-true industry leaders. It's why the FAANG stocks have been such popular investments for more than a decade.When I say \"FAANG\" stocks, I'm talking about:Facebook, which is now a subsidiary of Meta PlatformsAmazonAppleNetflixGoogle, which is now a subsidiary of AlphabetAmong the many reasons investors gravitate to the FAANGs is their clear-cut competitive advantages. For instance, Meta owns four of the most-popular social media sites on the planet, whereas Amazon was expected to bring in nearly 40% of all U.S. online retail sales in 2022, according to a report from eMarketer. These are dominant businesses within their respective industries -- and investors know it.But even among the FAANG stocks, there's a hierarchy of opportunity. In other words, some offer more long-term upside potential than others. Among Meta, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Alphabet, there are two FAANG stocks that have the potential to double your money by 2027.FAANG stock No. 1 that can double your money by 2027: AlphabetThe first FAANG stock fully capable of producing a 100% return over the next five years is Alphabet, the parent company of internet search engine Google, autonomous vehicle company Waymo, and streaming platform YouTube.If investors were to solely focus on Alphabet's fourth-quarter operating results, which were released last week, they'd have a hard time believing this company is capable of doubling in value by 2027. Total revenue jumped by just 1% over the prior-year quarter, with ad revenue pretty much declining across the board (Google and YouTube). Ad spending weakness is not uncommon when the winds of the recession begin blowing.However, one quarter certainly doesn't tell the tale when it comes to Alphabet. On a macro basis, investors should recognize the numbers game that very much favors ad-dependent companies. Even though ad spending weakens during economic contractions and recessions, these downturns tend to be short lived. By comparison, the U.S. and global economy can spend years expanding. This means Alphabet's ad-driven operating segments are growing in lockstep with the U.S. and global economy over time.But it's not just macroeconomic factors working in Alphabet's favor. In terms of global search engine market share, Google is practically a monopoly. According to data provided by GlobalStats, Google has accounted for 91% or greater of worldwide internet search share since December 2018. Having roughly 90 percentage points more market share than the next-closest competitor helps Alphabet's ad-pricing power immensely.Although Google should remain Alphabet's primary cash-flow driver for the foreseeable future, the company is investing in numerous other verticals and channels to boost its revenue and, eventually, its profits. As an example, Alphabet is investing heavily in monetizing YouTube Shorts -- short-form videos lasting less than a minute. The company noted during its fourth-quarter conference call that over 50 billion YouTube Shorts are being watched daily, which is a huge audience for advertisers to reach.  For context, this figure stood at 30 billion daily views during the first quarter of 2022.Significant investments are also being made in cloud infrastructure service Google Cloud, which climbed to an estimated 9% of worldwide cloud infrastructure spending during the third quarter, based on a report by Canalys. While Google Cloud is still a money-losing segment for Alphabet, enterprise cloud spending is still very much in its infancy. Since the margins associated with cloud services are typically higher than advertising margins, Google Cloud has an opportunity to become a key cash-flow driver by the second half of this decade.Alphabet is also relatively inexpensive, given its sustained double-digit growth rates during periods of economic expansion. It's valued at 20 times Wall Street's consensus earnings for 2023, and the company closed out 2022 with just over $99 billion in net cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on its balance sheet. If earnings per share were to double between now and 2027 (which seems quite likely), Alphabet stock shouldn't have any trouble returning 100% for patient investors.FAANG stock No. 2 that can double your money by 2027: AmazonThe second FAANG stock with all the tools and intangibles needed to double your money by 2027 is e-commerce juggernaut Amazon.Similar to Alphabet, if investors were solely to focus on Amazon's operating performance during the fourth quarter, they'd be missing the big picture. Though Amazon's retail segment struggled mightily and the company's net income plunged 98% from the prior-year period, Amazon's high-margin operating segments are still unstoppable.When most people hear the Amazon name, they immediately think about the company's online marketplace, which accounts for more U.S. online retail market share than its next 14 closest competitors on a combined basis. But the thing about online retail sales is that it's a generally low-margin operating segment. While Amazon's online marketplace has done a phenomenal job of attracting a loyal customer base, it's ultimately not the operating segment that'll push Amazon stock to new heights. Rather, it's a trio of ancillary divisions that generate most of its Amazon's cash flow and operating income.The first of these three key segments is subscription services. The popularity of its e-commerce platform encouraged more than 200 million people worldwide to sign up for a Prime membership. Keep in mind that this \"200 million\" figure is a company number from April 2021. Between very modest online sales growth since April 2021 and landing distribution exclusivity for the NFL's Thursday Night Football, the number of Prime members has assuredly grown. Amazon is nearing $37 billion in annual run-rate sales from subscription services.The second higher-margin segment fueling Amazon's growth is advertising services. Having more people view its ever-growing library of content, as well as visit its online marketplace, provides Amazon with abundant pricing power when negotiating with merchants. Despite a difficult environment for ad spending, Amazon recognized 23% year-over-year advertising services sales growth in the fourth quarter (excluding currency movements).Finally, there's cloud service infrastructure segment Amazon Web Services (AWS). The aforementioned Canalys report estimates AWS accounted for 32% of worldwide cloud service spending in the September-ended quarter. Despite representing only 15.6% of Amazon's net sales in 2022, AWS delivered $22.8 billion in operating income. Every other segment combined for Amazon generated an operating loss of $10.6 billion. AWS is, unquestionably, Amazon's cash-flow and profit driver.Although Amazon is quite pricey when looking at the price-to-earnings ratio, cash flow is the more appropriate measure of value for this company. Since Amazon reinvests a significant portion of its cash flow back into its various channels, it's a far better measure of the company's health and value.Throughout the 2010s, Amazon was valued at a median of 30 times its year-end cash flow. Based on Wall Street's consensus, Amazon is currently trading at just 5.6 times forecast cash flow in 2027. That's an incredible deal for a company whose highest-margin operating segments are all still growing by a double-digit percentage.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":42,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9955523197,"gmtCreate":1675579935620,"gmtModify":1676539008401,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":17,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9955523197","repostId":"2308684441","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2308684441","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":1675558051,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2308684441?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-05 08:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Stock-Market Rally Survived a Confusing Week.

GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTODespite a Friday stumble, stocks ended a turbulent week with another round of solid gains, keeping 2023's young but robust stock-market rally very much alive.But a cloud of confusion also sets over the market, and it will eventually need to be resolved, strategists said.Stocks rose early in the week as traders continued to bet that the Federal Reserve won't follow through on its forecast to push the federal funds rate to a peak above 5% and hold it there, instead looking for cuts by year-end. Fed chief Jerome Powell pushed back against that expectation again on Wednesday, but a nuanced answer to a question about loosening financial conditions and an acknowledgment that the \"disinflationary process\" had begun convinced traders they remained right about the rate path.On Friday, however, a blowout January jobs report, with the U.S. economy adding 517,000 jobs and the unemployment rate dropping to 3.4%, its lowest level since 1969, appeared to affirm Powell's position.Stocks took a hit, even if they finished off session lows, with the Nasdaq Composite  booking a fifth straight weekly gain and the S&P 500  achieving back-to-back weekly wins. The Dow Jones Industrial Average  suffered a 0.2% weekly fall.\"It kind of leaves you shaking your head right now, doesn't it?\" asked Jim Baird, chief investment officer at Plante Moran Financial Advisors, in a phone interview.At some point in the coming months there will need to be \"a reconciliation between what the markets think the Fed will do and what Powell says the Fed will do,\" Baird said.The rally could continue for now, Baird said, but he argued it would be wise in the long run to take the Fed at face value. \"I think the overall tone of risk taking in the market right now is a little bit too optimistic.\"Money-market traders did react to Friday's data. Fed funds futures on Friday afternoon reflected a 99.6% probability that the Fed would raise the target rate by 25 basis points to a range of 4.75% to 5% at the conclusion of its next policy meeting, on March 22, up from an 82.7% probability on Thursday, according to the CME FedWatch tool.For the Fed's May meeting, the market reflected a 61.3% chance of another quarter-point rise to 5% to 5.25%, the level the Fed has signaled is its expected high-water-mark rate. On Thursday, it saw just a 30% chance of a quarter-point rise in May. But markets still look for a cut by year-end.Of course, one month's data do not represent the end of the argument. But unless January's labor-market strength turns out to be a blip, the hawks on the Fed are likely to dig in and keep rates higher for longer, said Yung-Yu Ma, chief investment strategist at BMO Wealth Management, in a phone interview.For markets, the lack of a resolution to the long-simmering disconnect with the Fed could lead to a period of consolidation after an admittedly impressive start to 2023, he said.Indeed, the momentum behind the market's rally could be set to continue. It's been led by tech and other growth stocks that were hammered in last year's market rout. Market watchers detect a sense of \"FOMO,\" or fear of missing out, is driving what some have termed a tech-stock \"meltup.\"\"The impressive equity rally to start the year has caught cautious institutional investors, hedge funds, and strategists off guard. While overbought conditions are obvious, the near-universal level of skepticism among institutions provides a contrarian degree of support for continued strength,\" said Mark Hackett, chief of investment research at Nationwide, in a Friday note.And then there's earnings season, which has so far seen results from around half of the S&P 500.Companies through Friday had reported lower earnings for the fourth quarter relative to the end of the previous week and relative to the end of the quarter.The blended earnings decline (a combination of actual results for companies that have reported and estimated results for companies that have yet to report) for the fourth quarter was 5.3% through Friday, compared with an earnings decline of 5.1% last week and an earnings decline of 3.3% at the end of the fourth quarter, according to FactSet. If earnings come out negative for the quarter, it would be the first year-over-year decline since the third quarter of 2020.When it comes to earnings, \"there's definitely been a mood of forgiveness in the market,\" said BMO's Ma.\"I think the market just didn't want to see a disastrous earnings season,\" he said, noting expectations remain for weak earnings in the current quarter and next, with bulls looking into the second half of this year and even into 2024 to get on a better footing.For the market, the main driver will remain data on inflation and wage growth, Ma said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":14,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957020600,"gmtCreate":1676790720400,"gmtModify":1676790724600,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":14,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957020600","repostId":"1100725481","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1100725481","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1676779312,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1100725481?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-19 12:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Reminder: U.S. Market Will Be Closed for Washington's Birthday on Monday, Feb. 20, 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1100725481","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Washington's Birthday (Presidents Day) is around the corner.

Readers can see that I have a buy rating on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a>. One of the main reasons for these ratings is their strong presence in the already sizeable and growing cloud computing market. Given this market is driven by the increasing demand of data storage and processing capabilities, the runway for growth is still considerable. Further to this, there is already solid data backing the stable revenues and high operating margins some companies in this space are able to achieve. This space is also changing some of the biggest companies in the world as a result of their cloud computing segments being their fastest growing segments and contributing to a sizable portion of their operating incomes. Furthermore, the cloud computing market has high barriers to entry with multi billion dollar investments needed in order to possess the scalability, efficiency, footprint, and capabilities to offer the best-in-class services. This results in significant competitive advantages for well-established technology companies such as AMZN, MSFT, and GOOGL. Let´s take a look into what really is cloud computing. I hope you enjoy the read!</p><h3>What is Cloud Computing?</h3><p>Let&#39;s start with the basics. What is cloud computing? Cloud computing is essentially a network of servers around the world acting as a huge hard drive. Before the cloud existed, companies and individuals needed to back up their information and data into external devices, meaning a different hard drive. Nowadays, all this information and data can be transferred into the cloud, making it much more efficient and convenient for companies and individuals. One of the main benefits of the cloud is the accessibility to data and information remotely from anywhere in world at any given time as long as you have an internet connection. Companies and individuals also do not have the constraint of having too little storage, as in the cloud you can essentially store all the data you want and need.</p><p>Most of the cloud services offered are based on a subscription model meaning there is a monthly fee paid by customers. The beauty of this model for customers is that they are able to scale up or down their costs as they see fit. So, the more they use the cloud the more they will need to pay, while the less they use it the lower their costs will be.</p><p>So, why do companies want to move to the cloud instead of managing their data on premises? Of course, the main reason is to save money. Instead of having to build and power their own data centers and pay employees to operate them, companies can instead save time and effort by simply paying a cloud provider for this service. This also gives companies flexibility. Given the cloud can be used as they see fit, they can use it more during certain months or less during quite times. This gives companies the flexibility to adjust to their own needs.</p><h3>How do cloud providers generate revenues?</h3><p>Cloud computing is and has been a booming market for about a decade now and is likely to continue growing. For reference the global cloud computing market is projected to reach over $1.2 trillion by 2027. As such companies of the likes of AMZN, MSFT and GOOGL are all vying for a piece of the market. But how do these companies generate revenues from the cloud? As previously explained, the cloud model is a subscription model where companies can choose to subscribe to various services and pay as they go, meaning they pay depending on the usage of the services. There are several ways cloud providers generate revenues from cloud services, going from data storage, data transfers, cyber security, etc. According to tech researcher Gartner (IT), MSFT and AMZN have the most complete ecosystems of software and partnerships with third-party software-as-a-service providers.</p><h3>Competitive Landscape</h3><p>At the moment it is clear that cloud computing is truly dominated by two companies, AMZN with its AWS business recording revenues during the trailing twelve months (“TTM”) of $80.1 billion and MSFT with its cloud segment recording TTM revenues of $81.8 billion. Nonetheless, there is a distant third making strides to become a worthy opponent to these cloud giants. I am talking about Alphabet, a company with its Google Cloud business that has doubled revenues within two years and shows no sign of stopping. Although at a very distant third, Google Cloud has just reported revenues during the last twelve months of $26.3 billion and experienced a 37% growth rate year on year. Although Google Cloud is still a third of the size compared to AWS or MSFT Intelligent Cloud segment, it should not be left out as a top competitor in the space.</p><p>To understand why Google Cloud is a true competitor in the space, let´s take a look at AWS during 2018. At the end of 2018, AWS had very similar numbers to Google Cloud with revenues at approx. $26 billion showing growth rates of 50%. Yes, the growth rate was higher than Google Cloud&#39;s 37%, but it just goes to show that within 5 years, AWS was able to grow to $80 billion in revenues and $22.8 billion in operating income.</p><p>Despite AMZN, MSFT and GOOGL being the top players in the market there are also other well-established companies vying for market share such as IBM (IBM), Oracle (ORCL), Salesforce (CRM), etc. At the other side of the ocean there are the Chinese tech giants Alibaba (BABA), Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY), Baidu (BIDU) and Huawei competing for market share in the Chinese cloud computing market which is set to grow to $84 billion by 2026. Even though these companies are still relatively small in regards to cloud computing compared to AMZN, GOOGL and MSFT, with time they can grow and become serious contenders. Let&#39;s now take a look at the individual names and how they have performed!</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/234dd572ace958d37013f1cca08c3b86\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Amazon Web Services</h3><p>AWS was launched in 2006 seeing an explosive growth since then, generating revenues of $80 billion and operating income of $22.8 billion during 2022. AWS offers a variety of services including database, storage, web &amp; mobile apps, machine learning, etc. According to Amazon, the number of active AWS users exceeds 1 million with customers such as Goldman Sachs, Disney, Samsung, Snapchat, etc.</p><p>AWS keeps raking in big time customers, during the fourth quarter it added Yahoo Ad Tech, Brookfield Asset Management, Wallbox, American Family Insurance, etc. Further to this, AWS also launched new regions in Spain and Switzerland as well as a second region in India to continue expanding its infrastructure footprint. As of the end of 2022, AWS has 96 availability zones within 30 geographic regions globally, with announced plans to launch 15 more availability zones and 5 more AWS regions.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f48d27c77570b7dfce6a2f7d91c720b\" tg-width=\"628\" tg-height=\"246\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>From the table above, it can be seen that AWS increased revenues by 29% year-over-year to $80.1 billion. Despite AWS revenues only accounting for ~16% of AMZN total revenues AWS operating income which stood at $22.8 billion accounted for 100% of the company&#39;s operating income. Yes, you read that correctly, both North America and International segments recorded a loss during 2022 and AWS completely offset these losses due to its high profitability. To give another example during 2020 and 2021, AWS accounted for 74% and 59% of the company&#39;s total operating income. As you can see AMZN depends heavily on its cloud business for its growth.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/174c0602744843fefd8fe2f5e176016c\" tg-width=\"608\" tg-height=\"225\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>On a quarterly basis, AWS has seen a decrease on its growth rate to 20% from 40% during the fourth quarter of 2021. As it will be seen later in the article, both MSFT and GOOGL also experienced a slowdown in growth rates. Starting back in the middle of the third quarter of 2022, management started seeing growth rates slow as companies of all sizes looked into their cloud spending in response to the tough macroeconomic conditions. These optimization efforts continued into the fourth quarter and will most probably continue for next couple of quarters.</p><h3>Robust Yearly Growth Continues</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f458eb0d298692535415cd35c48e0d9\" tg-width=\"607\" tg-height=\"227\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>AWS was very close to double revenues within two years. During 2020 revenues stood at $45.3 billion, fast forward two years and we see revenues touching the $80 billion mark. With the market expected to continue growing to $1.2 trillion by 2027 and with AMZN investing in its global footprint, we could see AWS growing by tens of billions of dollars albeit at a slower growth rate than previous years.</p><h3>MSFT Intelligent Cloud</h3><p>Microsoft Azure was launched in 2010, however Microsoft Intelligent Cloud segment consists of other cloud services such as SQL Server, Windows Server, Visual Studio, among others. The Intelligent Cloud segment services include databases, data storage, artificial intelligence, networking, web and mobile apps, etc. Similarly to AMZN, MSFT has also seen explosive growth during the last decade with TTM revenues standing at $81.2 billion and a whopping operating income of $34.8 billion. MSFT enjoys of a cloud computing business that constantly generates a truly spectacular operating income margin above 40%.</p><p>According to the company, in mid-2021 over 95 percent of Fortune 500 companies used Azure, it had over 145 million daily active users on Microsoft Teams, and over 250 thousand organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Power Platform. Big name customers include T-Mobile, Bayer, L&#39;Oreal, Walmart, etc.</p><p>According to Dgtl Ingfra, at the end of 2022 Microsoft Azure had 60 geographic regions globally and 116 availability zones. This numbers are substantially higher than AWS and Google Cloud which combined have 64 geographic regions. This of course gives MSFT a competitive advantage regarding its reach to lure companies across the world towards its cloud services.</p><h3>Impact of MSFT Intelligent Cloud on Microsoft Overall Business</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3cfe82b3d844511c33cf17e8788cfd5d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"161\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>MSFT Intelligent Cloud segment increased its revenues to $81.8 billion during the TTM. MSFT Intelligent Cloud segment is quite important for Microsoft but not critical as AWS is for AMZN. The Intelligent Cloud segment now accounts for 40% of the company&#39;s total revenues and for 42% of MSFT operating income. This should give MSFT shareholders a peace of mind as the business growth does not depend entirely on the cloud segment.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8776c7389b26d35ab5619dbd4b8e0aff\" tg-width=\"604\" tg-height=\"207\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>During the last quarter, revenue increased 18%, here we can also see that the growth rate is slowing down and actually touched the teens for MSFT. However, it should be mentioned that in dollar terms the growth remained relatively flat at $3.2 billion compared to $3.6 billion during the same period last year. Further to this, during 2022 MSFT completed the acquisition of Nuance Communications. Nuance is a leader in conversational AI and ambient intelligence across industries including healthcare, financial services, retail, and telecommunications. This will help the Intelligent Cloud segment strengthen MSFT capabilities across these industries and should boost revenue growth during the coming quarters.</p><h3>Growth Continues with Operating Margin Holding Up</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86e4542d8dcb4be066d049b07cd0744d\" tg-width=\"601\" tg-height=\"209\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>MSFT fiscal year ends in June, as such we can compare the previous 3 years and the TTM results. With this information we can see that MSFT is very close to double revenues within 3 years. During FYE 2020 revenues stood at $48.4 billion, fast forward to the end of 2022 and we see revenues at $81 billion. I think it is very important to understand that we are talking about businesses which are about to touch the $100 billion mark and are still growing at very attractive growth rates. Albeit at a weaker rate, thanks to MSFT global footprint we should continue seeing this business growing and become an even more significant part of MSFT business as a whole.</p><h3>Google Cloud</h3><p>Google Cloud was made available for customers at the end of 2011 and since then it has become the third largest cloud service provider globally generating revenues of $26.3 billion during 2022. Google Cloud services include databases, security, smart analytics, artificial intelligence, etc. According to Dgtl Infra, as of the end of 2022 Google Cloud has 34 regions and 103 availability zones in operation. These regions include United States, Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Thanks to its global reach, Google Cloud has been able to land big name customers such as Airbus, Procter &amp; Gamble, Carrefour, PayPal, Vodafone, Twitter, among others.</p><p>Now, it is time to address the elephant in the room, even though Google Cloud is already a big business and growing at attractive rates, it remains unprofitable. This means that the business has been unprofitable for more than a decade. We could ask ourselves, how is it that a $26 billion revenue generating business continues to be unprofitable? Well, as management has mentioned during many investors calls it all comes down to spending money in order to make money. Specifically during the latest investor call management mentioned it keeps investing ahead of revenues, these investments are significant and keep the business from becoming profitable. Let&#39;s take a look at Google Cloud financials.</p><h3>Impact of Google Cloud on Alphabet Overall Business</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6060d2f2682900ec1ca0be3e5891df66\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"160\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Google Cloud continues to increase its relevance for the company&#39;s top line, however it has not been able to reach the 10% mark as of yet and as of the latest quarter results, it continues to depress the company&#39;s overall operating income. Saying this, from the table above, we can clearly see that revenues keep increasing while operating losses continue to shrink. For example, if you compare the losses during the first quarter to the losses during the fourth quarter, these have shrunk by about 50%. Further to this, revenue keeps increasing at a very attractive rate, Google Cloud finished the 2022 year with a revenue increase of 37% compared to the previous year. Important to note that the growth rate experience by Google Cloud is above the growth rates achieved by AMZN and MSFT on yearly basis. Additionally, Google Cloud backlog continued to increase during the year, standing at $64.3 billion at the end of 2022. For reference Google Cloud backlog at the end of first quarter of 2022 stood at $50.5 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70d1eb3b369fc582c61a2f54369afaad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"216\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>During the last quarter revenue increased 32%, again similarly to AMZN and MSFT, Google Cloud experienced a slowdown compared to the previous periods. Also similarly to MSFT, during 2022 management pursued an acquisition in order to boost the business. GOOGL completed the acquisition of Mandiant in Sept. 2022. Mandiant&#39;s dynamic cyber defense, threat intelligence and incident response services are expected to enhance Google Cloud&#39;s security offerings. Finally, the fact that Google Cloud has been able to double revenues and reduce operating losses by more than 60% should not go unnoticed. Even though these are still losses, the company is trending in the right direction.</p><h3>Growth Continues but so do Operating Losses</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e8c86fc52c911781cb4b9906b7d7bcd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"216\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Google Cloud revenues increased $7.1 billion from 2021 to 2022. This growth was primarily driven by Google Cloud Platform followed by Google Workspace offerings. Google Cloud&#39;s infrastructure and platform services were the largest drivers of growth in Google Cloud Platform. As for the decrease in operating losses, this was mainly driven by growth in revenues. As of the end of 2022, Google Cloud is very close to reaching the 10% mark as a percentage of total revenues. Also, the total losses for the year are now about 50% of the losses experienced during 2020. It is still too early to speculate if Google Cloud will be profitable for 2023, however, it is quite possible that the business will breakeven within the next four quarters.</p><h3>Google Cloud Revenue and Operating Losses Trend</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/55e64658922254640c814afc7834679b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"340\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>To finalize the Google Cloud discussion, I wanted to show the above graph so that readers can see the revenues and operating losses trends from the trailing 10 quarters. As it can be seen Google Cloud revenues have been steadily growing albeit at a slower rate during the last four quarters. It can also be seen that operating losses are volatile with some quarters experiencing higher losses than other, nonetheless the trend here is that losses are decreasing. Another interesting fact is that Google Cloud has generated revenues for GOOGL amounting to $52.8 billion during the last ten quarters, however operating losses have amounted to $8.5 billion during the same timeframe. On a final note, Google Cloud has not seen a double-digit growth rate on a quarter-on-quarter basis for four quarters now, of course with higher revenues this is more difficult to achieve. It will be interesting to see if growth rates can climb back to the rates it was experiencing two years ago.</p><h3>Comparing Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Intelligent Cloud and Google Cloud</h3><p>Throughout the article I have provided insights on how these three businesses have performed on a financial basis and compared their growth rates, operating income margins, etc. Saying these I believe there are a couple interesting topics to help compare these cloud providers. The first one being the global footprint these businesses have, as with a more extensive footprint they will be able to reach more customers around the globe. For example, a noticeable trait where MSFT clearly has a competitive advantage compared to AMZN and GOOGL is the extensive global footprint MSFT has. As mentioned earlier Microsoft Azure has 60 geographic regions globally, this is significantly bigger numbers than AMZN and GOOGL which both have half of the geographic regions MSFT enjoys of. This extensive global footprint by MSFT was probably a driver for acquiring more customers worldwide. AMZN is clearly trying to catch up, announcing investments in 15 more availability zones and 5 more AWS regions. We can expect Google Cloud to make similar investments in order not to fall behind.</p><p>Another great topic to discuss, is how these three companies are trying to get as many customers as possible, however it seems that the true gains that really move the needle are customers which are big companies. It is here where the cloud providers can derive significant bigger tickets and drive revenue growth. As an example, according to consultancy firm Contino, Netflix was said to be one of AMZN biggest spenders in the cloud with about $19 million back in 2020. A customer with this ticket size is really what moves the needle for these companies. As for MSFT, its biggest customer back in 2020 was Verizon with a ticket size of $80 million. Similarly, one of Google Cloud&#39;s biggest customers back in 2020 was NewsCorp deriving revenues of $41 million. Of course much has changed since 2020, however this can give a feel of how important big spenders are for these cloud providers.</p><p>Finally, these companies are also trying to consolidate the market by acquiring companies in the space. For example during 2022, both MSFT and GOOGL made significant acquisition to bolster their cloud businesses. MSFT closed its $19.6 billion acquisition of Nuance Communications, while GOOGL closed it $5.4 billion acquisition of Mandiant. It should not come as a surprise if we keep seeing news of cloud computing companies being captured by these three leaders in the space.</p><h3>Cloud Computing Market Outlook</h3><p>Based on the comparative analysis of these three companies, it&#39;s clear that both AMZN and MSFT will increasingly depend on their cloud businesses to accelerate their revenue growth and earnings. At the same time, GOOGL will try to bolster its cloud segment and seek to become profitable. Despite being the clear leaders in the space, these companies will face robust competition from companies of the likes of IBM, ORCL, CRM, BABA, TCEHY, BIDU, etc.</p><p>The pie will definitely get bigger with the global cloud computing market projected to reach over $1.2 trillion by 2027. From this, the Chinese cloud computing market alone is set to grow to $84 billion by 2026 and Asia Pacific as a whole is expected to reach $200 billion by 2024. In this region we have strong players such as BABA, TCEHY, BIDU and Huawei vying for market share, and of course we can expect these companies to try to expand their businesses all across the Asia Pacific region. Even though these companies are still relatively small compared to AMZN, GOOGL and MSFT, with time they can grow and start rivaling the US Giants.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>This article is mainly focused on the three biggest companies in the space, but I hope it brought the readers not only a better understanding of how important cloud computing is to these companies but to all the companies in the space. The cloud computing market truly offers attractive investment opportunities, as things currently stand, I believe MSFT holds a strong competitive advantage compared to most of the companies in the space. The reasons for this are the stable and growing revenues experienced by MSFT cloud computing segment, its high operating margins constantly above 40% as well as its advantage due to its extensive global footprint. This does not mean MSFT is the only investment opportunity, but it provides a certain security factor compared to other companies in the space. I recommend that investors consider looking more deeply into companies in the cloud computing space and consider the potential of gaining exposure to this growing market.</p><p>Editor&#39;s Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Readers can see that I have a buy rating on Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet. One of the main reasons for these ratings is their strong presence in the already sizeable and growing cloud computing market. Given this market is driven by the increasing demand of data storage and processing capabilities, the runway for growth is still considerable. Further to this, there is already solid data backing the stable revenues and high operating margins some companies in this space are able to achieve. This space is also changing some of the biggest companies in the world as a result of their cloud computing segments being their fastest growing segments and contributing to a sizable portion of their operating incomes. Furthermore, the cloud computing market has high barriers to entry with multi billion dollar investments needed in order to possess the scalability, efficiency, footprint, and capabilities to offer the best-in-class services. This results in significant competitive advantages for well-established technology companies such as AMZN, MSFT, and GOOGL. Let´s take a look into what really is cloud computing. I hope you enjoy the read!What is Cloud Computing?Let's start with the basics. What is cloud computing? Cloud computing is essentially a network of servers around the world acting as a huge hard drive. Before the cloud existed, companies and individuals needed to back up their information and data into external devices, meaning a different hard drive. Nowadays, all this information and data can be transferred into the cloud, making it much more efficient and convenient for companies and individuals. One of the main benefits of the cloud is the accessibility to data and information remotely from anywhere in world at any given time as long as you have an internet connection. Companies and individuals also do not have the constraint of having too little storage, as in the cloud you can essentially store all the data you want and need.Most of the cloud services offered are based on a subscription model meaning there is a monthly fee paid by customers. The beauty of this model for customers is that they are able to scale up or down their costs as they see fit. So, the more they use the cloud the more they will need to pay, while the less they use it the lower their costs will be.So, why do companies want to move to the cloud instead of managing their data on premises? Of course, the main reason is to save money. Instead of having to build and power their own data centers and pay employees to operate them, companies can instead save time and effort by simply paying a cloud provider for this service. This also gives companies flexibility. Given the cloud can be used as they see fit, they can use it more during certain months or less during quite times. This gives companies the flexibility to adjust to their own needs.How do cloud providers generate revenues?Cloud computing is and has been a booming market for about a decade now and is likely to continue growing. For reference the global cloud computing market is projected to reach over $1.2 trillion by 2027. As such companies of the likes of AMZN, MSFT and GOOGL are all vying for a piece of the market. But how do these companies generate revenues from the cloud? As previously explained, the cloud model is a subscription model where companies can choose to subscribe to various services and pay as they go, meaning they pay depending on the usage of the services. There are several ways cloud providers generate revenues from cloud services, going from data storage, data transfers, cyber security, etc. According to tech researcher Gartner (IT), MSFT and AMZN have the most complete ecosystems of software and partnerships with third-party software-as-a-service providers.Competitive LandscapeAt the moment it is clear that cloud computing is truly dominated by two companies, AMZN with its AWS business recording revenues during the trailing twelve months (“TTM”) of $80.1 billion and MSFT with its cloud segment recording TTM revenues of $81.8 billion. Nonetheless, there is a distant third making strides to become a worthy opponent to these cloud giants. I am talking about Alphabet, a company with its Google Cloud business that has doubled revenues within two years and shows no sign of stopping. Although at a very distant third, Google Cloud has just reported revenues during the last twelve months of $26.3 billion and experienced a 37% growth rate year on year. Although Google Cloud is still a third of the size compared to AWS or MSFT Intelligent Cloud segment, it should not be left out as a top competitor in the space.To understand why Google Cloud is a true competitor in the space, let´s take a look at AWS during 2018. At the end of 2018, AWS had very similar numbers to Google Cloud with revenues at approx. $26 billion showing growth rates of 50%. Yes, the growth rate was higher than Google Cloud's 37%, but it just goes to show that within 5 years, AWS was able to grow to $80 billion in revenues and $22.8 billion in operating income.Despite AMZN, MSFT and GOOGL being the top players in the market there are also other well-established companies vying for market share such as IBM (IBM), Oracle (ORCL), Salesforce (CRM), etc. At the other side of the ocean there are the Chinese tech giants Alibaba (BABA), Tencent (OTCPK:TCEHY), Baidu (BIDU) and Huawei competing for market share in the Chinese cloud computing market which is set to grow to $84 billion by 2026. Even though these companies are still relatively small in regards to cloud computing compared to AMZN, GOOGL and MSFT, with time they can grow and become serious contenders. Let's now take a look at the individual names and how they have performed!Amazon Web ServicesAWS was launched in 2006 seeing an explosive growth since then, generating revenues of $80 billion and operating income of $22.8 billion during 2022. AWS offers a variety of services including database, storage, web & mobile apps, machine learning, etc. According to Amazon, the number of active AWS users exceeds 1 million with customers such as Goldman Sachs, Disney, Samsung, Snapchat, etc.AWS keeps raking in big time customers, during the fourth quarter it added Yahoo Ad Tech, Brookfield Asset Management, Wallbox, American Family Insurance, etc. Further to this, AWS also launched new regions in Spain and Switzerland as well as a second region in India to continue expanding its infrastructure footprint. As of the end of 2022, AWS has 96 availability zones within 30 geographic regions globally, with announced plans to launch 15 more availability zones and 5 more AWS regions.From the table above, it can be seen that AWS increased revenues by 29% year-over-year to $80.1 billion. Despite AWS revenues only accounting for ~16% of AMZN total revenues AWS operating income which stood at $22.8 billion accounted for 100% of the company's operating income. Yes, you read that correctly, both North America and International segments recorded a loss during 2022 and AWS completely offset these losses due to its high profitability. To give another example during 2020 and 2021, AWS accounted for 74% and 59% of the company's total operating income. As you can see AMZN depends heavily on its cloud business for its growth.On a quarterly basis, AWS has seen a decrease on its growth rate to 20% from 40% during the fourth quarter of 2021. As it will be seen later in the article, both MSFT and GOOGL also experienced a slowdown in growth rates. Starting back in the middle of the third quarter of 2022, management started seeing growth rates slow as companies of all sizes looked into their cloud spending in response to the tough macroeconomic conditions. These optimization efforts continued into the fourth quarter and will most probably continue for next couple of quarters.Robust Yearly Growth ContinuesAWS was very close to double revenues within two years. During 2020 revenues stood at $45.3 billion, fast forward two years and we see revenues touching the $80 billion mark. With the market expected to continue growing to $1.2 trillion by 2027 and with AMZN investing in its global footprint, we could see AWS growing by tens of billions of dollars albeit at a slower growth rate than previous years.MSFT Intelligent CloudMicrosoft Azure was launched in 2010, however Microsoft Intelligent Cloud segment consists of other cloud services such as SQL Server, Windows Server, Visual Studio, among others. The Intelligent Cloud segment services include databases, data storage, artificial intelligence, networking, web and mobile apps, etc. Similarly to AMZN, MSFT has also seen explosive growth during the last decade with TTM revenues standing at $81.2 billion and a whopping operating income of $34.8 billion. MSFT enjoys of a cloud computing business that constantly generates a truly spectacular operating income margin above 40%.According to the company, in mid-2021 over 95 percent of Fortune 500 companies used Azure, it had over 145 million daily active users on Microsoft Teams, and over 250 thousand organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Power Platform. Big name customers include T-Mobile, Bayer, L'Oreal, Walmart, etc.According to Dgtl Ingfra, at the end of 2022 Microsoft Azure had 60 geographic regions globally and 116 availability zones. This numbers are substantially higher than AWS and Google Cloud which combined have 64 geographic regions. This of course gives MSFT a competitive advantage regarding its reach to lure companies across the world towards its cloud services.Impact of MSFT Intelligent Cloud on Microsoft Overall BusinessMSFT Intelligent Cloud segment increased its revenues to $81.8 billion during the TTM. MSFT Intelligent Cloud segment is quite important for Microsoft but not critical as AWS is for AMZN. The Intelligent Cloud segment now accounts for 40% of the company's total revenues and for 42% of MSFT operating income. This should give MSFT shareholders a peace of mind as the business growth does not depend entirely on the cloud segment.During the last quarter, revenue increased 18%, here we can also see that the growth rate is slowing down and actually touched the teens for MSFT. However, it should be mentioned that in dollar terms the growth remained relatively flat at $3.2 billion compared to $3.6 billion during the same period last year. Further to this, during 2022 MSFT completed the acquisition of Nuance Communications. Nuance is a leader in conversational AI and ambient intelligence across industries including healthcare, financial services, retail, and telecommunications. This will help the Intelligent Cloud segment strengthen MSFT capabilities across these industries and should boost revenue growth during the coming quarters.Growth Continues with Operating Margin Holding UpMSFT fiscal year ends in June, as such we can compare the previous 3 years and the TTM results. With this information we can see that MSFT is very close to double revenues within 3 years. During FYE 2020 revenues stood at $48.4 billion, fast forward to the end of 2022 and we see revenues at $81 billion. I think it is very important to understand that we are talking about businesses which are about to touch the $100 billion mark and are still growing at very attractive growth rates. Albeit at a weaker rate, thanks to MSFT global footprint we should continue seeing this business growing and become an even more significant part of MSFT business as a whole.Google CloudGoogle Cloud was made available for customers at the end of 2011 and since then it has become the third largest cloud service provider globally generating revenues of $26.3 billion during 2022. Google Cloud services include databases, security, smart analytics, artificial intelligence, etc. According to Dgtl Infra, as of the end of 2022 Google Cloud has 34 regions and 103 availability zones in operation. These regions include United States, Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Thanks to its global reach, Google Cloud has been able to land big name customers such as Airbus, Procter & Gamble, Carrefour, PayPal, Vodafone, Twitter, among others.Now, it is time to address the elephant in the room, even though Google Cloud is already a big business and growing at attractive rates, it remains unprofitable. This means that the business has been unprofitable for more than a decade. We could ask ourselves, how is it that a $26 billion revenue generating business continues to be unprofitable? Well, as management has mentioned during many investors calls it all comes down to spending money in order to make money. Specifically during the latest investor call management mentioned it keeps investing ahead of revenues, these investments are significant and keep the business from becoming profitable. Let's take a look at Google Cloud financials.Impact of Google Cloud on Alphabet Overall BusinessGoogle Cloud continues to increase its relevance for the company's top line, however it has not been able to reach the 10% mark as of yet and as of the latest quarter results, it continues to depress the company's overall operating income. Saying this, from the table above, we can clearly see that revenues keep increasing while operating losses continue to shrink. For example, if you compare the losses during the first quarter to the losses during the fourth quarter, these have shrunk by about 50%. Further to this, revenue keeps increasing at a very attractive rate, Google Cloud finished the 2022 year with a revenue increase of 37% compared to the previous year. Important to note that the growth rate experience by Google Cloud is above the growth rates achieved by AMZN and MSFT on yearly basis. Additionally, Google Cloud backlog continued to increase during the year, standing at $64.3 billion at the end of 2022. For reference Google Cloud backlog at the end of first quarter of 2022 stood at $50.5 billion.During the last quarter revenue increased 32%, again similarly to AMZN and MSFT, Google Cloud experienced a slowdown compared to the previous periods. Also similarly to MSFT, during 2022 management pursued an acquisition in order to boost the business. GOOGL completed the acquisition of Mandiant in Sept. 2022. Mandiant's dynamic cyber defense, threat intelligence and incident response services are expected to enhance Google Cloud's security offerings. Finally, the fact that Google Cloud has been able to double revenues and reduce operating losses by more than 60% should not go unnoticed. Even though these are still losses, the company is trending in the right direction.Growth Continues but so do Operating LossesGoogle Cloud revenues increased $7.1 billion from 2021 to 2022. This growth was primarily driven by Google Cloud Platform followed by Google Workspace offerings. Google Cloud's infrastructure and platform services were the largest drivers of growth in Google Cloud Platform. As for the decrease in operating losses, this was mainly driven by growth in revenues. As of the end of 2022, Google Cloud is very close to reaching the 10% mark as a percentage of total revenues. Also, the total losses for the year are now about 50% of the losses experienced during 2020. It is still too early to speculate if Google Cloud will be profitable for 2023, however, it is quite possible that the business will breakeven within the next four quarters.Google Cloud Revenue and Operating Losses TrendTo finalize the Google Cloud discussion, I wanted to show the above graph so that readers can see the revenues and operating losses trends from the trailing 10 quarters. As it can be seen Google Cloud revenues have been steadily growing albeit at a slower rate during the last four quarters. It can also be seen that operating losses are volatile with some quarters experiencing higher losses than other, nonetheless the trend here is that losses are decreasing. Another interesting fact is that Google Cloud has generated revenues for GOOGL amounting to $52.8 billion during the last ten quarters, however operating losses have amounted to $8.5 billion during the same timeframe. On a final note, Google Cloud has not seen a double-digit growth rate on a quarter-on-quarter basis for four quarters now, of course with higher revenues this is more difficult to achieve. It will be interesting to see if growth rates can climb back to the rates it was experiencing two years ago.Comparing Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Intelligent Cloud and Google CloudThroughout the article I have provided insights on how these three businesses have performed on a financial basis and compared their growth rates, operating income margins, etc. Saying these I believe there are a couple interesting topics to help compare these cloud providers. The first one being the global footprint these businesses have, as with a more extensive footprint they will be able to reach more customers around the globe. For example, a noticeable trait where MSFT clearly has a competitive advantage compared to AMZN and GOOGL is the extensive global footprint MSFT has. As mentioned earlier Microsoft Azure has 60 geographic regions globally, this is significantly bigger numbers than AMZN and GOOGL which both have half of the geographic regions MSFT enjoys of. This extensive global footprint by MSFT was probably a driver for acquiring more customers worldwide. AMZN is clearly trying to catch up, announcing investments in 15 more availability zones and 5 more AWS regions. We can expect Google Cloud to make similar investments in order not to fall behind.Another great topic to discuss, is how these three companies are trying to get as many customers as possible, however it seems that the true gains that really move the needle are customers which are big companies. It is here where the cloud providers can derive significant bigger tickets and drive revenue growth. As an example, according to consultancy firm Contino, Netflix was said to be one of AMZN biggest spenders in the cloud with about $19 million back in 2020. A customer with this ticket size is really what moves the needle for these companies. As for MSFT, its biggest customer back in 2020 was Verizon with a ticket size of $80 million. Similarly, one of Google Cloud's biggest customers back in 2020 was NewsCorp deriving revenues of $41 million. Of course much has changed since 2020, however this can give a feel of how important big spenders are for these cloud providers.Finally, these companies are also trying to consolidate the market by acquiring companies in the space. For example during 2022, both MSFT and GOOGL made significant acquisition to bolster their cloud businesses. MSFT closed its $19.6 billion acquisition of Nuance Communications, while GOOGL closed it $5.4 billion acquisition of Mandiant. It should not come as a surprise if we keep seeing news of cloud computing companies being captured by these three leaders in the space.Cloud Computing Market OutlookBased on the comparative analysis of these three companies, it's clear that both AMZN and MSFT will increasingly depend on their cloud businesses to accelerate their revenue growth and earnings. At the same time, GOOGL will try to bolster its cloud segment and seek to become profitable. Despite being the clear leaders in the space, these companies will face robust competition from companies of the likes of IBM, ORCL, CRM, BABA, TCEHY, BIDU, etc.The pie will definitely get bigger with the global cloud computing market projected to reach over $1.2 trillion by 2027. From this, the Chinese cloud computing market alone is set to grow to $84 billion by 2026 and Asia Pacific as a whole is expected to reach $200 billion by 2024. In this region we have strong players such as BABA, TCEHY, BIDU and Huawei vying for market share, and of course we can expect these companies to try to expand their businesses all across the Asia Pacific region. Even though these companies are still relatively small compared to AMZN, GOOGL and MSFT, with time they can grow and start rivaling the US Giants.ConclusionThis article is mainly focused on the three biggest companies in the space, but I hope it brought the readers not only a better understanding of how important cloud computing is to these companies but to all the companies in the space. The cloud computing market truly offers attractive investment opportunities, as things currently stand, I believe MSFT holds a strong competitive advantage compared to most of the companies in the space. The reasons for this are the stable and growing revenues experienced by MSFT cloud computing segment, its high operating margins constantly above 40% as well as its advantage due to its extensive global footprint. This does not mean MSFT is the only investment opportunity, but it provides a certain security factor compared to other companies in the space. I recommend that investors consider looking more deeply into companies in the cloud computing space and consider the potential of gaining exposure to this growing market.Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

But Mr. Buffett retained his sense of optimism in his annual letter to investors Saturday, saying he attributes much of his success over the years to the resilience of the U.S. economy.</p><p>“I have been investing for 80 years—more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant—almost enthusiasm—for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America,” Mr. Buffett said in the letter.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, widely regarded as one of the world’s top investors, has been publishing the letters for more than half a century. Over that time, he hasn’t just reflected on the past year for his company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., but also shared his thoughts on everything from esoteric accounting rules to his aversion to excessive risk-taking.</p><p>Saturday’s letter offered readers a glimpse into how Mr. Buffett, 92, viewed what wound up being a shaky stretch for markets.</p><p>The volatility offered Berkshire an opportunity to jump in and buy stocks. While Berkshire largely bought back its own shares in 2021, it focused more in 2022 on investing in other companies—opening up new positions in media company Paramount Global and building-materials manufacturer Louisiana-Pacific Corp., among other businesses, and swiftly becoming Occidental Petroleum Corp.’s single biggest shareholder.</p><p>As of the end of 2022, Berkshire was the largest shareholder of eight companies—American Express Co., Bank of America Corp., Chevron Corp., Coca-Cola Co., HP Inc., Moody’s Corp., Occidental and Paramount Global.</p><p>“America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true,” Mr. Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire also released its results for 2022 on Saturday.</p><p>The Omaha, Neb., company, which owns businesses including insurer Geico, railroad BNSF Railway and chocolate maker See’s Candies, posted a loss of $22.82 billion for the year, stung by $67.9 billion in investment and derivative contract losses. In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.</p><p>Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.</p><p>Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.</p><p>“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.</p><h2>Read the full letter here:</h2><p>To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:</p><p>Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.</p><p>A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.</p><p>Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.</p><p>The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.</p><p>Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?</p><h2>What We Do</h2><p>Charlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.</p><p>In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.</p><p>Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.</p><p>Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”</p><p>One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.</p><p>Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)</p><p>Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.</p><h2>The Secret Sauce</h2><p>In August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.</p><p>The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.</p><p>American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.</p><p>These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.</p><p>Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.</p><p>The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.</p><h2>The Past Year in Brief</h2><p>Berkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69e74650656620f9fa3f1e55c15a90e5\" tg-width=\"797\" tg-height=\"207\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.</p><p>A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire  and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.</p><p>Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.</p><p>The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.</p><p>Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?</p><p>When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).</p><p>Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.</p><p>And that is a promise we can make.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.</p><p>That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.</p><h2>58 Years – and a Few Figures</h2><p>In 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.</p><p>And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.</p><p>Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.</p><p>Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&amp;P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.</p><p>In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.</p><p>At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.</p><p>In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and</p><p>$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.</p><p>As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.</p><p>At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.</p><h2>Some Surprising Facts About Federal Taxes</h2><p>During the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.</p><p>Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.</p><p>The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.</p><p>And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend. Let’s put physical dimensions to the numbers:</p><p>- If you convert $1 million into newly-printed $100 bills, you will have a stack that reaches your chest.</p><p>- Perform the same exercise with $1 billion – this is getting exciting! – and the stack reaches about 34 of a mile into the sky.</p><p>- Finally, imagine piling up $32 billion, the total of Berkshire’s 2012-21 federal income tax payments. Now the stack grows to more than 21 miles in height, about three times the level at which commercial airplanes usually cruise.</p><p>When it comes to federal taxes, individuals who own Berkshire can unequivocally state “I gave at the office.”</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At Berkshire we hope and expect to pay much more in taxes during the next decade. We owe the country no less: America’s dynamism has made a huge contribution to whatever success Berkshire has achieved – a contribution Berkshire will always need. We count on the American Tailwind and, though it has been becalmed from time to time, its propelling force has always returned.</p><p>I have been investing for 80 years – more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant – almost enthusiasm – for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America. And I doubt very much that any reader of this letter will have a different experience in the future.</p><h2>Nothing Beats Having a Great Partner</h2><p>Charlie and I think pretty much alike. But what it takes me a page to explain, he sums up in a sentence. His version, moreover, is always more clearly reasoned and also more artfully – some might add bluntly – stated.</p><p>Here are a few of his thoughts, many lifted from a very recent podcast:</p><p>- The world is full of foolish gamblers, and they will not do as well as the patient investor.</p><p>- If you don’t see the world the way it is, it’s like judging something through a distorted lens.</p><p>- All I want to know is where I’m going to die, so I’ll never go there. And a related thought: Early on, write your desired obituary – and then behave accordingly.</p><p>- If you don’t care whether you are rational or not, you won’t work on it. Then you will stay irrational and get lousy results.</p><p>- Patience can be learned. Having a long attention span and the ability to concentrate on one thing for a long time is a huge advantage.</p><p>- You can learn a lot from dead people. Read of the deceased you admire and detest.</p><p>- Don’t bail away in a sinking boat if you can swim to one that is seaworthy.</p><p>- A great company keeps working after you are not; a mediocre company won’t do that.</p><p>- Warren and I don’t focus on the froth of the market. We seek out good long-term investments and stubbornly hold them for a long time.</p><p>- Ben Graham said, “Day to day, the stock market is a voting machine; in the long term it’s a weighing machine.” If you keep making something more valuable, then some wise person is going to notice it and start buying.</p><p>- There is no such thing as a 100% sure thing when investing. Thus, the use of leverage is dangerous. A string of wonderful numbers times zero will always equal zero. Don’t count on getting rich twice.</p><p>- You don’t, however, need to own a lot of things in order to get rich.</p><p>- You have to keep learning if you want to become a great investor. When the world changes, you must change.</p><p>- Warren and I hated railroad stocks for decades, but the world changed and finally the country had four huge railroads of vital importance to the American economy. We were slow to recognize the change, but better late than never.</p><p>- Finally, I will add two short sentences by Charlie that have been his decision-clinchers for decades: “Warren, think more about it. You’re smart and I’m right.”</p><p>And so it goes. I never have a phone call with Charlie without learning something. And, while he makes me think, he also makes me laugh.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>I will add to Charlie’s list a rule of my own:   Find   a   very   smart   high-grade partner – preferably slightly older than you – and then listen very carefully to what he says.</p><h2>A Family Gathering in Omaha</h2><p>Charlie and I are shameless. Last year, at our first shareholder get-together in three years, we greeted you with our usual commercial hustle.</p><p>From the opening bell, we went straight for your wallet. In short order, our See’s kiosk sold you eleven tons of nourishing peanut brittle and chocolates. In our P.T. Barnum pitch, we promised you longevity. After all, what else but candy from See’s could account for Charlie and me making it to 99 and 92?</p><p>I know you can’t wait to hear the specifics of last year’s hustle.</p><p>On Friday, the doors were open from noon until 5 p.m., and our candy counters rang up 2,690 individual sales. On Saturday, See’s registered an additional 3,931 transactions between 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., despite the fact that 612 of the 912 operating hours occurred while our movie and the question-and-answer session were limiting commercial traffic.</p><p>Do the math: See’s rang up about 10 sales per minute during its prime operating time (racking up $400,309 of volume during the two days), with all the goods purchased at a single location selling products that haven’t been materially altered in 101 years.

But Mr. Buffett retained his sense of optimism in his annual letter to investors Saturday, saying he attributes much of his success over the years to the resilience of the U.S. economy.</p><p>“I have been investing for 80 years—more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant—almost enthusiasm—for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America,” Mr. Buffett said in the letter.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, widely regarded as one of the world’s top investors, has been publishing the letters for more than half a century. Over that time, he hasn’t just reflected on the past year for his company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., but also shared his thoughts on everything from esoteric accounting rules to his aversion to excessive risk-taking.</p><p>Saturday’s letter offered readers a glimpse into how Mr. Buffett, 92, viewed what wound up being a shaky stretch for markets.</p><p>The volatility offered Berkshire an opportunity to jump in and buy stocks. While Berkshire largely bought back its own shares in 2021, it focused more in 2022 on investing in other companies—opening up new positions in media company Paramount Global and building-materials manufacturer Louisiana-Pacific Corp., among other businesses, and swiftly becoming Occidental Petroleum Corp.’s single biggest shareholder.</p><p>As of the end of 2022, Berkshire was the largest shareholder of eight companies—American Express Co., Bank of America Corp., Chevron Corp., Coca-Cola Co., HP Inc., Moody’s Corp., Occidental and Paramount Global.</p><p>“America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true,” Mr. Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire also released its results for 2022 on Saturday.</p><p>The Omaha, Neb., company, which owns businesses including insurer Geico, railroad BNSF Railway and chocolate maker See’s Candies, posted a loss of $22.82 billion for the year, stung by $67.9 billion in investment and derivative contract losses. In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.</p><p>Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.</p><p>Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.</p><p>“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.</p><h2>Read the full letter here:</h2><p>To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:</p><p>Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.</p><p>A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.</p><p>Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.</p><p>The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.</p><p>Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?</p><h2>What We Do</h2><p>Charlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.</p><p>In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.</p><p>Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.</p><p>Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”</p><p>One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.</p><p>Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)</p><p>Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.</p><h2>The Secret Sauce</h2><p>In August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.</p><p>The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.</p><p>American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.</p><p>These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.</p><p>Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.</p><p>The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.</p><h2>The Past Year in Brief</h2><p>Berkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69e74650656620f9fa3f1e55c15a90e5\" tg-width=\"797\" tg-height=\"207\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.</p><p>A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire  and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.</p><p>Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.</p><p>The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.</p><p>Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?</p><p>When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).</p><p>Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.</p><p>And that is a promise we can make.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.</p><p>That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.</p><h2>58 Years – and a Few Figures</h2><p>In 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.</p><p>And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.</p><p>Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.</p><p>Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&amp;P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.</p><p>In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.</p><p>At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.</p><p>In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and</p><p>$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.</p><p>As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.</p><p>At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.</p><h2>Some Surprising Facts About Federal Taxes</h2><p>During the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.</p><p>Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.</p><p>The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.</p><p>And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend. Let’s put physical dimensions to the numbers:</p><p>- If you convert $1 million into newly-printed $100 bills, you will have a stack that reaches your chest.</p><p>- Perform the same exercise with $1 billion – this is getting exciting! – and the stack reaches about 34 of a mile into the sky.</p><p>- Finally, imagine piling up $32 billion, the total of Berkshire’s 2012-21 federal income tax payments. Now the stack grows to more than 21 miles in height, about three times the level at which commercial airplanes usually cruise.</p><p>When it comes to federal taxes, individuals who own Berkshire can unequivocally state “I gave at the office.”</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At Berkshire we hope and expect to pay much more in taxes during the next decade. We owe the country no less: America’s dynamism has made a huge contribution to whatever success Berkshire has achieved – a contribution Berkshire will always need. We count on the American Tailwind and, though it has been becalmed from time to time, its propelling force has always returned.</p><p>I have been investing for 80 years – more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant – almost enthusiasm – for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America. And I doubt very much that any reader of this letter will have a different experience in the future.</p><h2>Nothing Beats Having a Great Partner</h2><p>Charlie and I think pretty much alike. But what it takes me a page to explain, he sums up in a sentence. His version, moreover, is always more clearly reasoned and also more artfully – some might add bluntly – stated.</p><p>Here are a few of his thoughts, many lifted from a very recent podcast:</p><p>- The world is full of foolish gamblers, and they will not do as well as the patient investor.</p><p>- If you don’t see the world the way it is, it’s like judging something through a distorted lens.</p><p>- All I want to know is where I’m going to die, so I’ll never go there. And a related thought: Early on, write your desired obituary – and then behave accordingly.</p><p>- If you don’t care whether you are rational or not, you won’t work on it. Then you will stay irrational and get lousy results.</p><p>- Patience can be learned. Having a long attention span and the ability to concentrate on one thing for a long time is a huge advantage.</p><p>- You can learn a lot from dead people. Read of the deceased you admire and detest.</p><p>- Don’t bail away in a sinking boat if you can swim to one that is seaworthy.</p><p>- A great company keeps working after you are not; a mediocre company won’t do that.</p><p>- Warren and I don’t focus on the froth of the market. We seek out good long-term investments and stubbornly hold them for a long time.</p><p>- Ben Graham said, “Day to day, the stock market is a voting machine; in the long term it’s a weighing machine.” If you keep making something more valuable, then some wise person is going to notice it and start buying.</p><p>- There is no such thing as a 100% sure thing when investing. Thus, the use of leverage is dangerous. A string of wonderful numbers times zero will always equal zero. Don’t count on getting rich twice.</p><p>- You don’t, however, need to own a lot of things in order to get rich.</p><p>- You have to keep learning if you want to become a great investor. When the world changes, you must change.</p><p>- Warren and I hated railroad stocks for decades, but the world changed and finally the country had four huge railroads of vital importance to the American economy. We were slow to recognize the change, but better late than never.</p><p>- Finally, I will add two short sentences by Charlie that have been his decision-clinchers for decades: “Warren, think more about it. You’re smart and I’m right.”</p><p>And so it goes. I never have a phone call with Charlie without learning something. And, while he makes me think, he also makes me laugh.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>I will add to Charlie’s list a rule of my own:   Find   a   very   smart   high-grade partner – preferably slightly older than you – and then listen very carefully to what he says.</p><h2>A Family Gathering in Omaha</h2><p>Charlie and I are shameless. Last year, at our first shareholder get-together in three years, we greeted you with our usual commercial hustle.</p><p>From the opening bell, we went straight for your wallet. In short order, our See’s kiosk sold you eleven tons of nourishing peanut brittle and chocolates. In our P.T. Barnum pitch, we promised you longevity. After all, what else but candy from See’s could account for Charlie and me making it to 99 and 92?</p><p>I know you can’t wait to hear the specifics of last year’s hustle.</p><p>On Friday, the doors were open from noon until 5 p.m., and our candy counters rang up 2,690 individual sales. On Saturday, See’s registered an additional 3,931 transactions between 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., despite the fact that 612 of the 912 operating hours occurred while our movie and the question-and-answer session were limiting commercial traffic.</p><p>Do the math: See’s rang up about 10 sales per minute during its prime operating time (racking up $400,309 of volume during the two days), with all the goods purchased at a single location selling products that haven’t been materially altered in 101 years. What worked for See’s in the days of Henry Ford’s model T works now.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Charlie, I, and the entire Berkshire bunch look forward to seeing you in Omaha on May 5-6. We will have a good time and so will you.</p><p>February 25, 2023 Warren E.

In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.Read the full letter here:To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?What We DoCharlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.* * * * * * * * * * * *At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.The Secret SauceIn August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.The Past Year in BriefBerkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire  and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.* * * * * * * * * * * *A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.And that is a promise we can make.* * * * * * * * * * * *Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.58 Years – and a Few FiguresIn 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.Some Surprising Facts About Federal TaxesDuring the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.* * * * * * * * * * * *Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend. Let’s put physical dimensions to the numbers:- If you convert $1 million into newly-printed $100 bills, you will have a stack that reaches your chest.- Perform the same exercise with $1 billion – this is getting exciting! – and the stack reaches about 34 of a mile into the sky.- Finally, imagine piling up $32 billion, the total of Berkshire’s 2012-21 federal income tax payments. Now the stack grows to more than 21 miles in height, about three times the level at which commercial airplanes usually cruise.When it comes to federal taxes, individuals who own Berkshire can unequivocally state “I gave at the office.”* * * * * * * * * * * *At Berkshire we hope and expect to pay much more in taxes during the next decade. We owe the country no less: America’s dynamism has made a huge contribution to whatever success Berkshire has achieved – a contribution Berkshire will always need. We count on the American Tailwind and, though it has been becalmed from time to time, its propelling force has always returned.I have been investing for 80 years – more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant – almost enthusiasm – for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America. And I doubt very much that any reader of this letter will have a different experience in the future.Nothing Beats Having a Great PartnerCharlie and I think pretty much alike. But what it takes me a page to explain, he sums up in a sentence. His version, moreover, is always more clearly reasoned and also more artfully – some might add bluntly – stated.Here are a few of his thoughts, many lifted from a very recent podcast:- The world is full of foolish gamblers, and they will not do as well as the patient investor.- If you don’t see the world the way it is, it’s like judging something through a distorted lens.- All I want to know is where I’m going to die, so I’ll never go there. And a related thought: Early on, write your desired obituary – and then behave accordingly.- If you don’t care whether you are rational or not, you won’t work on it. Then you will stay irrational and get lousy results.- Patience can be learned. Having a long attention span and the ability to concentrate on one thing for a long time is a huge advantage.- You can learn a lot from dead people. Read of the deceased you admire and detest.- Don’t bail away in a sinking boat if you can swim to one that is seaworthy.- A great company keeps working after you are not; a mediocre company won’t do that.- Warren and I don’t focus on the froth of the market. We seek out good long-term investments and stubbornly hold them for a long time.- Ben Graham said, “Day to day, the stock market is a voting machine; in the long term it’s a weighing machine.” If you keep making something more valuable, then some wise person is going to notice it and start buying.- There is no such thing as a 100% sure thing when investing. Thus, the use of leverage is dangerous. A string of wonderful numbers times zero will always equal zero. Don’t count on getting rich twice.- You don’t, however, need to own a lot of things in order to get rich.- You have to keep learning if you want to become a great investor. When the world changes, you must change.- Warren and I hated railroad stocks for decades, but the world changed and finally the country had four huge railroads of vital importance to the American economy. We were slow to recognize the change, but better late than never.- Finally, I will add two short sentences by Charlie that have been his decision-clinchers for decades: “Warren, think more about it. You’re smart and I’m right.”And so it goes. I never have a phone call with Charlie without learning something. And, while he makes me think, he also makes me laugh.* * * * * * * * * * * *I will add to Charlie’s list a rule of my own:   Find   a   very   smart   high-grade partner – preferably slightly older than you – and then listen very carefully to what he says.A Family Gathering in OmahaCharlie and I are shameless. Last year, at our first shareholder get-together in three years, we greeted you with our usual commercial hustle.From the opening bell, we went straight for your wallet. In short order, our See’s kiosk sold you eleven tons of nourishing peanut brittle and chocolates. In our P.T. Barnum pitch, we promised you longevity. After all, what else but candy from See’s could account for Charlie and me making it to 99 and 92?I know you can’t wait to hear the specifics of last year’s hustle.On Friday, the doors were open from noon until 5 p.m., and our candy counters rang up 2,690 individual sales. On Saturday, See’s registered an additional 3,931 transactions between 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., despite the fact that 612 of the 912 operating hours occurred while our movie and the question-and-answer session were limiting commercial traffic.Do the math: See’s rang up about 10 sales per minute during its prime operating time (racking up $400,309 of volume during the two days), with all the goods purchased at a single location selling products that haven’t been materially altered in 101 years. What worked for See’s in the days of Henry Ford’s model T works now.* * * * * * * * * * * *Charlie, I, and the entire Berkshire bunch look forward to seeing you in Omaha on May 5-6. We will have a good time and so will you.February 25, 2023 Warren E.

But don&#39;t mistake the central bank&#39;s downshift for a dovish pivot.</p><p>With a 25-basis-point interest-rate hike all but locked in (a basis point is a hundredth of a percentage point), the biggest news on Wednesday will come not from the Fed&#39;s policy moves but the statement and press conference that will follow its two-day policy meeting. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has been emphasizing for months that the future pace of tightening is less important than how high interest rates ultimately rise, and investors and economists will be parsing his words for clues as to where the federal-funds rate might ultimately land.</p><p>For Powell, the challenge will be to acknowledge that the Fed is slowing its pace while emphasizing, as he has in several past public appearances, that the central bank still has plenty of work to do. His press conference will likely come off as more hawkish than the interest-rate hike itself, which markets will likely interpret as a softer approach, Fed analysts say. Ahead of the meeting, investors are pricing in a nearly 99% chance of a 25 basis-point increase, according to CME data.</p><p>&#34;Policymakers appear to have increased confidence that inflation is on a path lower, but the Fed is not yet convinced that inflationary pressures will dissipate quickly,&#34; a team of Bank of America economists led by Michael Gapen wrote.</p><p>&#34;The decision may be for a smaller 25bp hike,&#34; they wrote., &#34;but the Fed will want to avoid the interpretation that this implies a lower terminal rate or an earlier onset of rate cuts than the committee viewed as appropriate when it last met in December.&#34;</p><p>Wednesday&#39;s policy statement and press conference come as the central bank is at something of a crossroads. The U.S. economy is broadly slowing and inflation, which has fallen steadily since the summer, appears to be well past its peak.</p><p>But despite months of cooling, inflation remains significantly above where the Fed would like to see it. Core PCE, the Fed&#39;s preferred measure of inflation, fell to 4.4% in December but remains at more than double the central bank&#39;s 2% target. Central-bank officials worry that even as goods prices deflate and housing costs slow, inflation will hit a floor well above its 2% target due to persistent strength in services sectors.</p><p>The difficulty now for the Fed is to figure out how much further to raise rates to slow price growth back to target without going so far as to push the economy into a recession.

In fact, the three major U.S. financial indexes delivered their worst annual performances since the Great Recession in 2008. The <b>Dow Jones Industrial Average</b> slipped 9%, the broad-based <b>S&amp;P 500</b> fell 19%, and the tech-heavy <b>Nasdaq Composite </b>nosedived 33%.</p><p>All three indexes have recovered to some degree this year, but the benchmark S&amp;P 500 is still in a bear market, and many growth stocks are still trading well below their highs. For instance, shares of <b>Atlassian</b> and <b>Cloudflare</b> are down around 60% and 68%, respectively.</p><p>Of course, not all beaten-down stocks are worth buying -- but Atlassian and Cloudflare are well positioned to rebound during the next bull market. Here&#39;s why now is a perfect time to buy these growth stocks.</p><h2>Atlassian: A leader in productivity and team collaboration software</h2><p>Australian software company Atlassian disappointed investors with its latest earnings report. In the second quarter of fiscal 2023 (ended Dec. 31, 2022): Revenue rose just 27% to $873 million, a material deceleration from 37% growth in the prior year, and free cash flow fell 24% to $146 million. Unfortunately, management expects the situation to deteriorate further as the company continues to battle economic headwinds. Guidance implies top-line growth of just 22% in the third quarter.</p><p>The near-term picture may not be pretty, but Atlassian can reaccelerate growth when economic conditions improve. Its software products improve business productivity by facilitating collaboration and streamlining workflows across different teams. That value proposition applies to virtually any industry, and it will only become relevant as digital transformation ushers in new technologies and remote work makes collaboration more complicated.</p><p>Atlassian has a somewhat unique go-to-market strategy. It leans heavily on self-service sales channels and word-of-mouth marketing, which keeps its sales and marketing costs low. Ultimately, that means Atlassian can invest more in product development than its peers, and that advantage has helped the company achieve a strong presence in several software verticals. Last year, Atlassian was recognized as a leader in IT service management and enterprise agile planning software by consulting company <b>Gartner</b>. Better yet, it currently ranks 12th on the list of best global software sellers, according to research company G2.</p><p>That success can be attributed to the broad scope of the its platform. Atlassian is the only work management software vendor that addresses the needs of technical teams (development, operations) and non-technical teams (marketing, human resources). Atlassian also brings IT service teams onto the same platform as software teams.</p><p>Those unique qualities give the company a material advantage for two reasons. First, Atlassian&#39;s broad utility means customers can standardize on a single platform, which eliminates the hassle of working with multiple vendors. Second, Atlassian can land new customers through almost any department, then expand across the entire business.</p><p>Management puts its addressable market at $29 billion, and that figure is growing at 14% annually. Atlassian is well positioned to capitalize on that opportunity, and shares currently trade at about 14 times sales, a discount to the three-year average of 28 times sales. At that price, investors should buy a small position in this growth stock today.</p><h2>2. Cloudflare: A leader in content delivery network software</h2><p>Cloud computing company Cloudflare turned in another solid financial report in the fourth quarter. Its customer count climbed 16% to about 162,000, while the average customer spent 22% more over the past year. In turn, fourth-quarter revenue rose 42% to $275 million and cash flow from operating activities soared 92% to $78 million.</p><p>Those results are particularly impressive in the context of a difficult economic climate, and the company could likely accelerate growth under more favorable conditions.</p><p>Looking ahead, the investment thesis is straightforward: Cloudflare provides a broad range of cloud services that improve the performance and security of business-critical applications and IT infrastructure, while eliminating the cost of on-premise network hardware. Despite tough competition from larger vendors like <b>Amazon</b> Web Services, Cloudflare has a strong presence in several cloud verticals, and the company is well positioned to take market share in others.</p><p>Why? Cloudflare benefits from two key advantages: speed and scale. It operates the fastest cloud network and developer platform on the planet. That has led to leadership in content delivery network software and edge development platforms, but speed coupled with freemium pricing has also led to mind-boggling scale. Cloudflare handles nearly 18%  of all internet traffic, and it provides security services to 20% of the web, both of which afford the company unrivaled insight into performance issues and security problems across the internet. Cloudflare can use that data to improve its products, creating a network effect that should help it gain momentum in other cloud verticals, especially zero-trust security.</p><p>On that note, <b>Forrester Research</b> recently recognized Cloudflare as the leader in web application firewalls, and Gartner recognized the company as a leader in web application and API protection. So Cloudflare is making inroads in the security space, but the company has still only scratched the surface of its $125 billion addressable market. With shares trading at around 23 times sales, a bargain compared to the three-year average of 42 times sales, this stock is worth buying today.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>A Bull Market Is Coming: 2 Perfect Growth Stocks Down 60% and 68% to Buy Now and Hold Forever</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\">\nA Bull Market Is Coming: 2 Perfect Growth Stocks Down 60% and 68% to Buy Now and Hold Forever\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-18 10:39 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/02/17/bull-market-coming-2-growth-stocks-down-68-to-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investors battled a particularly brutal stock market last year.

With shares trading at around 23 times sales, a bargain compared to the three-year average of 42 times sales, this stock is worth buying today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9955297620,"gmtCreate":1675433200560,"gmtModify":1676539002689,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Underperform&nbsp;","listText":"Underperform&nbsp;","text":"Underperform","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9955297620","repostId":"1158212560","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1158212560","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1675431017,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158212560?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-03 21:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Payrolls Increased By 517,000 in January, Much Better Than 187,000 Expected","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158212560","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The employment picture started off 2023 on a stunningly strong note, with nonfarm payrolls posting t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The employment picture started off 2023 on a stunningly strong note, with nonfarm payrolls posting their strongest gain since July 2022.</p><p>Nonfarm payrolls increased by 517,000 for January, above the Dow Jones estimate of 187,000.

That being said, we anticipate that the Chinese consumer might return even with macro uncertainty tied to the Russian and the Ukrainian War, which has put a drag on Chinese themes throughout the year. Despite the somewhat hazy outlook from the consensus we try our best to piece together some of the more useful points heading into the quarter.</p><p>Apple is expected to report Q1 ‘23 earnings results on February 2nd, 2023 after the market closes. Apple is expected to report revenue of $121.67 billion and dil. EPS of $1.94 for Q1 ‘23. We think there’s room for surprises on consumer hardware, particularly the iPhone though we’re in the middle of a mid-refresh year, indications from the sell-side suggest that diminished expectations imply a beat on hardware with continued strength in services and software revenue helping to offset the weakness in PC hardware cycle. We want to note that smartphones might be able to escape the malaise in computer hardware given the low correlation to mining hardware trends.</p><p>Furthermore, we expect AAPL to deliver revenue of $406.15 billion FY ’23 and dil. EPS of $6.53 for FY’ 23, which is higher than consensus at $402.54 billion and dil. EPS of $6.17 admittedly. We expect the company to deliver a beat mostly on better than expected iPhone channel sell-in, above expected contribution from services, and heightened gross margin contribution from using the company’s in-house silicon. We anticipate profitability trends to remain neutral to slightly positive depending on the degree to which AAPL layoffs workers.</p><p>We value the stock at $155.70, FY’25 estimated $8.29 dil. EPS, which implies an 18.78x forward earnings multiple to FY ‘25 results after factoring a 9.9% discount based on the firm’s WACC. We expect modest upside in the stock of +7.38% mirroring the types of returns a Dow component stock is likely to generate in this environment. An earnings result surprise in the form of better than expected outlook, or above consensus hardware shipments would make us incrementally positive.</p><p>We also recommend Apple to our readers as a Buy rated stock, though we believe upside is somewhat limited, we also find the stable dividends, growth, and diversification of portfolio sufficient in mitigating the downside argument, and would be one of the better blue chips to accumulate in the event of any recession or growth pullback in the economy.</p><h3>Key Apple news items heading into the quarter</h3><p>The recent update to the iMac and MacBook Pro or the PC line-up has been much needed given the lagging performance of Intel processors, and the need for differentiated hardware via the M2 Pro and M2 Max chipset. The drop-off in consumer PC shipments, which Intel (INTC) just reported and how much of that decline in shipments was tied to Apple simply moving on from the X86 ecosystem will be disclosed via the earnings release.</p><p>Foreign exchange could have a positive impact on the quarterly results, at least according to UBS analyst David Vogt:</p><p>“On January 21st, our estimates do not reflect the strength of four key currencies (EUR, GBP, YEN, and CNY) relative to the US dollar in the December quarter. Based on Apple&#39;s revenue mix, the ~10% FX headwind guide for the Dec qtr is too conservative by 400-500bps (4-5 percentage points), mitigating rev and EPS risk ahead of earnings on Feb 2.”</p><p>The company will reference Chinese shipment results throughout the quarterly earnings call, and we anticipate that the near-term results will be fueled by Chinese sell-through and an improvement in product outlook, or expansion into new categories. We think the Mac refresh was much needed, and efforts to transition the company towards gaming and VR will be helpful in mitigating the negative sentiment tied to hardware this upcoming quarter.</p><p>Apple layoffs will be another question likely raised by analysts and members of the news media following the announcement of earnings. There could be a minor layoff, perhaps less than 5% of the workforce as Apple doesn’t really need to lean down right now, but given the fact that other companies are opting to shrink workforce in favor of enabling productivity it could give AAPL some added air cover when pertaining to costs. We anticipate that Apple has benefited from being disciplined with its cost structure throughout much of Tim Cook’s tenure as CEO of the company with operating margins in OEM hardware the highest in the segment, and company level operating margin hovering 29%-30% over FY ‘21 and FY ‘22, further drives that point home.</p><p>We think the weakness in labor force participation tied to Covid-19 has led to different companies employing different policies to bring workers back to the office whether digitally or to the corporate office. Furthermore, company culture, and an emphasis on profitable business units has kept many workers safely employed at AAPL whereas other tech companies are making cuts, but mainly in non-performing business segments, which Apple doesn’t have a non-profit contributing segment to speak of. Even legacy businesses like older accessories are thought to add contribution to profits in the form of on-going services and repair related revenue.</p><p>It’s also difficult to argue why Apple should reduce its retail footprint when it establishes further verticality in Apple’s distribution aside from its e-commerce channel and is instrumental in generating revenue from service and warranty agreements for hardware. It’s hard to imagine where Apple could make cuts aside from using the usual MBA approach of unloading the bottom 5% of performers at a business, assuming the cuts are made strategically, and the bottom 5% of performers are in areas of the company where cuts could be made.</p><h3>Data on inventory and channel creates some concern among managers</h3><p>We also expect the data on inventory drain in the channel, or the availability of hardware components to be noteworthy. Analyst sentiment tied to inventory, and the lack of availability in certain markets could cause some anxiety, though the bias is on whether or not Apple was able to deliver enough devices for Q1 ’23, which is the seasonally strong quarter of the year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/668624a8c0662ca5cfd5278c7e81d653\" tg-width=\"622\" tg-height=\"521\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Heading into the end of the year it seems supplies started to thin as we started to exit the year, though the days of available inventory, or availability tracker suggests that trends are kind of moderating when compared to prior-year according to the analyst who released the survey. Meaning, like much of the hardware data suggests from third-party reports, smartphone shipments are supposed to be bad this year, but the degree to which they’re bad is determined by the amount of phones that exit the inventory channel, and we think Apple did a fairly solid job heading into the close of the year clearing inventory thus pulling as much revenue forward into its Q4 seasonally strong quarter.</p><p>It’s not clear what analysts will say in response to some inventory clearing to deliver millions of units above consensus. For the most part, we haven’t heard a whole lot of news from other semiconductor names aside from Intel, and given its company-specific weakness, we have to look for the differences in computing sector performance to determine where businesses could outperform.</p><p>We think smartphones could buck the trend when compared to conventional PC hardware, but with Apple decoupling from x86 hardware, classifying Apple volumes in third-party reports becomes more difficult. The argument favors shareholders, as Apple can sustain higher margin PC shipments while working on IC (integrated circuit) or hardware design level improvements to its M-based architecture for desktop/notebook taking share away from the enthusiast segment of the PC market all while hiding the impact on industry data given the pull into ARM-based silicon for even more advanced graphical applications.</p><p>It’s why we’re hoping for added clarity on Apple shipments tied to computer hardware as we think the transition towards better hardware drives the arguments for better margins over time, more so than the impending job cuts that do little to drive variable costs lower. The reduction from hardware bill of materials and added control over hardware and software is what differentiates Apple.</p><p>It’s also worth noting that because Samsung (OTCPK:SSNLF) hasn’t reported earnings at the time of writing this article, we have no idea how well the component side of the business is doing out of Samsung, nor do we know if the decline in shipments was as indicated by the Q4’22 mobile smartphone shipment tracker by IDC. Based on the data from the third-party survey, device shipments for iPhone are supposed to decline by -14.9% for Apple and also -15.6% for Samsung.</p><h3>Financial model notes to consider</h3><p>Keep in mind analyst models embed like 79 million to 82 million iPhone shipments in Q1 ‘23 earnings quarter, which compares to the 85 million shipment figures released in the IDC report. Much of the positives are anticipated in other hardware categories and continued service revenue contribution.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b5f42304627f273b9867b197539746e\" tg-width=\"616\" tg-height=\"347\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>We think upside remains somewhat limited unless there&#39;s something we haven’t already captured in our model. We anticipate revenue and earnings to swing marginally favorably by 2-3 percentage points on the basis of foreign exchange impact, and because the firm reports on GAAP basis, the FX impact of weaker dollar in the quarter helps with generating a surprise on results.</p><p>Furthermore, we acknowledge that survey data is mostly above consensus iPhone shipment figures, which means estimates are beatable on survey data alone, and also channel sell-in.</p><h3>Our homework points to a better than expected quarter</h3><p>We think, the stock will report a minor beat on earnings and revenue to exit FY &#39;23, and we expect gradual operating margin growth through FY ‘25, and estimate a weak environment for sales in FY ‘24 with modest growth of $418 billion FY ‘24 versus consensus revenue estimates $425 billion for FY ‘23. We think estimates might be difficult to meet this upcoming year given the overwhelming negativity heading into this part of the PC cycle, but because Apple operates a separate and independent ecosystem we think the exposure is limited, and Apple can deliver above x86 ecosystem in terms of returns.</p><p>In terms of blue chip hardware names, Apple likely recovers and generates positive revenue growth of 10%-12% in a major iPhone refresh year, i.e., iPhone 15 paired with stronger macro sentiment from China and less darker skies tied to U.S. macro makes us more optimistic and give us room to revise estimates up in our valuation model. For now, based on the inputs we’re working with, we expect modest upside of 7.38%, and recommend the stock at &#34;buy&#34; based on its strong track record of paying dividends, returning capital, and weathering economic storms given diversification of business portfolio and geographic mix along with a stellar balance sheet.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

That being said, we anticipate that the Chinese consumer might return even with macro uncertainty tied to the Russian and the Ukrainian War, which has put a drag on Chinese themes throughout the year. Despite the somewhat hazy outlook from the consensus we try our best to piece together some of the more useful points heading into the quarter.Apple is expected to report Q1 ‘23 earnings results on February 2nd, 2023 after the market closes. Apple is expected to report revenue of $121.67 billion and dil. EPS of $1.94 for Q1 ‘23. We think there’s room for surprises on consumer hardware, particularly the iPhone though we’re in the middle of a mid-refresh year, indications from the sell-side suggest that diminished expectations imply a beat on hardware with continued strength in services and software revenue helping to offset the weakness in PC hardware cycle. We want to note that smartphones might be able to escape the malaise in computer hardware given the low correlation to mining hardware trends.Furthermore, we expect AAPL to deliver revenue of $406.15 billion FY ’23 and dil. EPS of $6.53 for FY’ 23, which is higher than consensus at $402.54 billion and dil. EPS of $6.17 admittedly. We expect the company to deliver a beat mostly on better than expected iPhone channel sell-in, above expected contribution from services, and heightened gross margin contribution from using the company’s in-house silicon. We anticipate profitability trends to remain neutral to slightly positive depending on the degree to which AAPL layoffs workers.We value the stock at $155.70, FY’25 estimated $8.29 dil. EPS, which implies an 18.78x forward earnings multiple to FY ‘25 results after factoring a 9.9% discount based on the firm’s WACC. We expect modest upside in the stock of +7.38% mirroring the types of returns a Dow component stock is likely to generate in this environment. An earnings result surprise in the form of better than expected outlook, or above consensus hardware shipments would make us incrementally positive.We also recommend Apple to our readers as a Buy rated stock, though we believe upside is somewhat limited, we also find the stable dividends, growth, and diversification of portfolio sufficient in mitigating the downside argument, and would be one of the better blue chips to accumulate in the event of any recession or growth pullback in the economy.Key Apple news items heading into the quarterThe recent update to the iMac and MacBook Pro or the PC line-up has been much needed given the lagging performance of Intel processors, and the need for differentiated hardware via the M2 Pro and M2 Max chipset. The drop-off in consumer PC shipments, which Intel (INTC) just reported and how much of that decline in shipments was tied to Apple simply moving on from the X86 ecosystem will be disclosed via the earnings release.Foreign exchange could have a positive impact on the quarterly results, at least according to UBS analyst David Vogt:“On January 21st, our estimates do not reflect the strength of four key currencies (EUR, GBP, YEN, and CNY) relative to the US dollar in the December quarter. Based on Apple's revenue mix, the ~10% FX headwind guide for the Dec qtr is too conservative by 400-500bps (4-5 percentage points), mitigating rev and EPS risk ahead of earnings on Feb 2.”The company will reference Chinese shipment results throughout the quarterly earnings call, and we anticipate that the near-term results will be fueled by Chinese sell-through and an improvement in product outlook, or expansion into new categories. We think the Mac refresh was much needed, and efforts to transition the company towards gaming and VR will be helpful in mitigating the negative sentiment tied to hardware this upcoming quarter.Apple layoffs will be another question likely raised by analysts and members of the news media following the announcement of earnings. There could be a minor layoff, perhaps less than 5% of the workforce as Apple doesn’t really need to lean down right now, but given the fact that other companies are opting to shrink workforce in favor of enabling productivity it could give AAPL some added air cover when pertaining to costs. We anticipate that Apple has benefited from being disciplined with its cost structure throughout much of Tim Cook’s tenure as CEO of the company with operating margins in OEM hardware the highest in the segment, and company level operating margin hovering 29%-30% over FY ‘21 and FY ‘22, further drives that point home.We think the weakness in labor force participation tied to Covid-19 has led to different companies employing different policies to bring workers back to the office whether digitally or to the corporate office. Furthermore, company culture, and an emphasis on profitable business units has kept many workers safely employed at AAPL whereas other tech companies are making cuts, but mainly in non-performing business segments, which Apple doesn’t have a non-profit contributing segment to speak of. Even legacy businesses like older accessories are thought to add contribution to profits in the form of on-going services and repair related revenue.It’s also difficult to argue why Apple should reduce its retail footprint when it establishes further verticality in Apple’s distribution aside from its e-commerce channel and is instrumental in generating revenue from service and warranty agreements for hardware. It’s hard to imagine where Apple could make cuts aside from using the usual MBA approach of unloading the bottom 5% of performers at a business, assuming the cuts are made strategically, and the bottom 5% of performers are in areas of the company where cuts could be made.Data on inventory and channel creates some concern among managersWe also expect the data on inventory drain in the channel, or the availability of hardware components to be noteworthy. Analyst sentiment tied to inventory, and the lack of availability in certain markets could cause some anxiety, though the bias is on whether or not Apple was able to deliver enough devices for Q1 ’23, which is the seasonally strong quarter of the year.Heading into the end of the year it seems supplies started to thin as we started to exit the year, though the days of available inventory, or availability tracker suggests that trends are kind of moderating when compared to prior-year according to the analyst who released the survey. Meaning, like much of the hardware data suggests from third-party reports, smartphone shipments are supposed to be bad this year, but the degree to which they’re bad is determined by the amount of phones that exit the inventory channel, and we think Apple did a fairly solid job heading into the close of the year clearing inventory thus pulling as much revenue forward into its Q4 seasonally strong quarter.It’s not clear what analysts will say in response to some inventory clearing to deliver millions of units above consensus. For the most part, we haven’t heard a whole lot of news from other semiconductor names aside from Intel, and given its company-specific weakness, we have to look for the differences in computing sector performance to determine where businesses could outperform.We think smartphones could buck the trend when compared to conventional PC hardware, but with Apple decoupling from x86 hardware, classifying Apple volumes in third-party reports becomes more difficult. The argument favors shareholders, as Apple can sustain higher margin PC shipments while working on IC (integrated circuit) or hardware design level improvements to its M-based architecture for desktop/notebook taking share away from the enthusiast segment of the PC market all while hiding the impact on industry data given the pull into ARM-based silicon for even more advanced graphical applications.It’s why we’re hoping for added clarity on Apple shipments tied to computer hardware as we think the transition towards better hardware drives the arguments for better margins over time, more so than the impending job cuts that do little to drive variable costs lower. The reduction from hardware bill of materials and added control over hardware and software is what differentiates Apple.It’s also worth noting that because Samsung (OTCPK:SSNLF) hasn’t reported earnings at the time of writing this article, we have no idea how well the component side of the business is doing out of Samsung, nor do we know if the decline in shipments was as indicated by the Q4’22 mobile smartphone shipment tracker by IDC. Based on the data from the third-party survey, device shipments for iPhone are supposed to decline by -14.9% for Apple and also -15.6% for Samsung.Financial model notes to considerKeep in mind analyst models embed like 79 million to 82 million iPhone shipments in Q1 ‘23 earnings quarter, which compares to the 85 million shipment figures released in the IDC report. Much of the positives are anticipated in other hardware categories and continued service revenue contribution.We think upside remains somewhat limited unless there's something we haven’t already captured in our model. We anticipate revenue and earnings to swing marginally favorably by 2-3 percentage points on the basis of foreign exchange impact, and because the firm reports on GAAP basis, the FX impact of weaker dollar in the quarter helps with generating a surprise on results.Furthermore, we acknowledge that survey data is mostly above consensus iPhone shipment figures, which means estimates are beatable on survey data alone, and also channel sell-in.Our homework points to a better than expected quarterWe think, the stock will report a minor beat on earnings and revenue to exit FY '23, and we expect gradual operating margin growth through FY ‘25, and estimate a weak environment for sales in FY ‘24 with modest growth of $418 billion FY ‘24 versus consensus revenue estimates $425 billion for FY ‘23. We think estimates might be difficult to meet this upcoming year given the overwhelming negativity heading into this part of the PC cycle, but because Apple operates a separate and independent ecosystem we think the exposure is limited, and Apple can deliver above x86 ecosystem in terms of returns.In terms of blue chip hardware names, Apple likely recovers and generates positive revenue growth of 10%-12% in a major iPhone refresh year, i.e., iPhone 15 paired with stronger macro sentiment from China and less darker skies tied to U.S. macro makes us more optimistic and give us room to revise estimates up in our valuation model. For now, based on the inputs we’re working with, we expect modest upside of 7.38%, and recommend the stock at \"buy\" based on its strong track record of paying dividends, returning capital, and weathering economic storms given diversification of business portfolio and geographic mix along with a stellar balance sheet.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952290339,"gmtCreate":1674723084022,"gmtModify":1676538955325,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Im ready","listText":"Im ready","text":"Im ready","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":13,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9952290339","repostId":"2306109367","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":9,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940451364,"gmtCreate":1678129133259,"gmtModify":1678129137425,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I wait to 2067 ,in another world.","listText":"I wait to 2067 ,in another world.","text":"I wait to 2067 ,in another world.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940451364","repostId":"2316113551","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2316113551","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1678116820,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2316113551?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-06 23:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Prediction: These 3 S&P 500 Stocks Will at Least Double in 7 Years","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2316113551","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These large-cap stocks should grow much larger.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>There&#39;s an old joke about a person being asked, &#34;How many people work in your office?&#34; The person responds, &#34;About half of them.&#34;</p><p>This punchline comes to mind when I look at the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>.

But my view is that Vertex has enough arrows in its quiver that it will be able to double investors' money within the next seven years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":22,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957583418,"gmtCreate":1677393901534,"gmtModify":1677393905448,"author":{"id":"4133623950260892","authorId":"4133623950260892","name":"Aidukas","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4133623950260892","authorIdStr":"4133623950260892"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957583418","repostId":"1106152290","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106152290","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1677379674,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106152290?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-26 10:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Top Calls on Wall Street This Week: Nvidia, Shopify, Occidental and More","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106152290","media":"TheFly","summary":"Top 5 Buy Calls:Goldman ups Nvidia to Buy, says “wrong” to have been waiting on sidelinesOn February","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b><u>Top 5 Buy Calls:</u></b></p><p><b>Goldman ups Nvidia to Buy, says “wrong” to have been waiting on sidelines</b></p><p>On February 23, Goldman Sachs upgraded Nvidia (NVDA) to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $275, up from $162, based on a normalized EPS estimate of $5.00, up from $4.50 on higher peak EPS. The company &#34;delivered an impressive quarter&#34; and in hindsight, the firm acknowledges that its &#34;decision to remain on the sidelines in anticipation of a pullback in the company&#39;s fundamentals was wrong.&#34; While recognizing that the stock has meaningfully outperformed the group year-to-date, Goldman believes the combination of positive estimate revisions and a potential expansion in the stock&#39;s multiple consistent with historical recovery phases will drive continued outperformance.</p><p><b>DA Davidson upgrades Shopify on recent pullback on shares</b></p><p>On February 22, DA Davidson upgraded Shopify (SHOP) to Buy from Neutral with an unchanged price target of $50. The firm believes the over 20% selloff post earnings has created an attractive entry point. Current consensus estimates could prove conservative and a return to small losses &#34;is a fleeting issue,&#34; DA Davidson tells investors in a research note. The firm views the opportunity for Shopify Audiences as underappreciated and is &#34;encouraged&#34; by Shopify&#39;s competitive positioning in the mobile market. It sees Shopify as one of the most important software companies.</p><p><b>Loop Capital starts Walgreens Boots at Buy, sees higher growth from healthcare</b></p><p>On February 23, Loop Capital initiated coverage of Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) with a Buy rating and $45 price target. The company&#39;s new healthcare platform will &#34;significantly enhance&#34; the value of its stores to consumers by affording them more convenient access to healthcare services, the firm tells investors in a research note. Loop Capital adds that Walgreens&#39; assembled portfolio of health care providers should strengthen its core retail business and accelerate its growth and profitability by increasing its engagement with consumers.</p><p><b>SVB Securities upgrades Teladoc to Outperform as bear thesis reflected in shares</b></p><p>On February 23, SVB Securities upgraded Teladoc (TDOC) to Outperform from Market Perform with a $34 price target. The firm &#34;fully acknowledges&#34; that the call will be met with a high level of pushback given the quarter&#39;s miss in both 2023 and Q1 2023 guidance. While SVB expects shares will be down, with Teladoc&#39;s bear case largely playing out over the past year and a half, it believes the valuation will fully reflect the downside scenario-effectively, and be past the final overhang. The firm sees a set-up of achievable 2023 guidance that has baked in meaningful conservatism around macro and a narrowing pool of incremental negative datapoints, all against the backdrop of 19% short interest.</p><p><b>Wolfe upgrades Merck with pipeline “big enough to matter”</b></p><p>On February 22, Wolfe Research upgraded Merck (MRK) to Outperform from Peer Perform with a $127 price target. The company &#34;finally has a pipeline that is big enough to matter,&#34; the firm tells investors in a research note. Wolfe Research says that given the various sources of optionality that lie ahead for Merck, either in the pipeline or in the base business, further multiple expansion of the shares is possible.</p><p><b><u>Top 5 Sell Calls:</u></b></p><p><b>JPMorgan cuts AutoNation to Underweight, sees capital deployment having little accretion</b></p><p>On February 21, JPMorgan downgraded AutoNation (AN) to Underweight from Neutral with a price target of $130, up from $125. The firm believes the company&#39;s recent capital deployment will have little accretion in the near-term. AutoNation&#39;s investments are expected to increase, buybacks are likely to take a step back, and its move to more acquisitions and related execution credibility &#34;will take time to establish,&#34; JPMorgan tells investors in a research note. As such, the firm sees a less attractive risk/reward at current share levels.</p><p><b>UBS downgrades DocuSign to Sell following another workforce reduction</b></p><p>On February 21, UBS downgraded DocuSign (DOCU) to Sell from Neutral with a $52 price target. The company had announced in the week prior a 10% workforce reduction after the 9% reduction in September, sending a negative demand signal about 2024 growth that may not be factored into the stock, the firm noted. Its free cash flow also does not look compelling relative to other low-growth software peers, UBS added.</p><p><b>Wells Fargo downgrades Cable One to Underweight on key negative catalysts</b></p><p>On February 21, Wells Fargo downgraded Cable One (CABO) to Underweight from Equal Weight with a price target of $680, down from $850. Slowing broadband subscriber growth, likely from competition, and a &#34;dilutive&#34; 2025 put to consolidate Mega Broadband are key negative catalysts that will de-rate shares of Cable One, the firm tells investors in a research note. Wells says slower subscriber growth and &#34;rapid&#34; video declines warrant a lower multiple for the shares</p><p><b>BTIG downgrades LGI Homes to Sell on stock’s relative valuation</b></p><p>On February 22, BTIG downgraded LGI Homes (LGIH) to Sell from Neutral with a $73 price target. The downgrade is largely based on the stock&#39;s relative valuation as opposed to a specific catalyst or change in view on housing demand, the firm tells investors in a research note. BTIG sees LGI&#39;s relative and absolute valuation as high. The stock carries a 36% premium to the group, though the company&#39;s return on equity will not exceed cost of equity this year, the firm says. BTIG also believes LGI&#39;s customer base is the most sensitive to interest rates among all the builders it covers.</p><p><b>More bearish, Evercore ISI cuts Occidental Petroleum to Underperform</b></p><p>On February 22, Evercore ISI downgraded Occidental Petroleum (OXY) to Underperform from In Line with a price target of $60, down from $74. The firm says the overhang from the redemption of preferred shares should persist over the near- to mid-term. In addition, Occidental has less crude leverage than perceived, the firm tells investors in a research note. Evercore ISI expects the stock to be more range-bound than peers and views Occidental as a good source of funds.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1666364704704","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>Top Calls on Wall Street This Week: Nvidia, Shopify, Occidental and More</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\">\nTop Calls on Wall Street This Week: Nvidia, Shopify, Occidental and More\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-26 10:47 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://thefly.com/landingPageNews.php?id=3669765&headline=NVDA;SHOP;WBA;TDOC;MRK;AN;DOCU;CABO;LGIH;OXY-BuySell-Wall-Streets-top--stock-calls-this-week&utm_source=https://thefly.com/&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=referral_traffic><strong>TheFly</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Top 5 Buy Calls:Goldman ups Nvidia to Buy, says “wrong” to have been waiting on sidelinesOn February 23, Goldman Sachs upgraded Nvidia (NVDA) to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $275, up from $...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://thefly.com/landingPageNews.php?id=3669765&headline=NVDA;SHOP;WBA;TDOC;MRK;AN;DOCU;CABO;LGIH;OXY-BuySell-Wall-Streets-top--stock-calls-this-week&utm_source=https://thefly.com/&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=referral_traffic\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"英伟达","OXY":"西方石油","SHOP":"Shopify Inc"},"source_url":"https://thefly.com/landingPageNews.php?id=3669765&headline=NVDA;SHOP;WBA;TDOC;MRK;AN;DOCU;CABO;LGIH;OXY-BuySell-Wall-Streets-top--stock-calls-this-week&utm_source=https://thefly.com/&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=referral_traffic","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1106152290","content_text":"Top 5 Buy Calls:Goldman ups Nvidia to Buy, says “wrong” to have been waiting on sidelinesOn February 23, Goldman Sachs upgraded Nvidia (NVDA) to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $275, up from $162, based on a normalized EPS estimate of $5.00, up from $4.50 on higher peak EPS.
