Ultimately it's valuation , valuation n valuation...u can give a premium for forward potential but company must deliver. Unfortunately for this period of rising yields, this inflated valuation is first to send the stock south.

Tesla is also not making profit overall. The shares price surged.. Maybe when everybody sell and short sellers reach a certain level, he start to buy.. Then you missed the boat..

In financial services, its total payment volume climbed 111% to $4.6 billion, while the number of its paying users soared 120% from a year ago.The performance of Sea’s video game business was less impressive, but its quarterly active user base still rose 27% from a year ago to 729 million, while its bookings increased 29% to $1.2 billion and its EBITDA, excluding certain items, rose 22% to $715 million.So, despite the challenges to all of these businesses and the difficult year-over-year comparisons created by the easing of the pandemic, the growth of all three ranged from quite respectable to tremendous.Overall, Sea’s sales jumped 122% from last year,reaching $2.7 billion,while its gross profit surged 148% to $1 billion.Moreover, there are multiple signs that the company has become very adept at expanding its e-commerce business to new markets. For example, the company has already had some success in Brazil, which is, of course, quite far away and very different from Sea’s home base in Southeast Asia.During Sea’s Q3 earnings call in November, CEO Forrest Lit said, “More than 1 million local sellers in Brazil have registered with {Sea’s e-commerce website) since we started welcoming local sellers in mid-2020.”Meanwhile, Sea’s e-commerce unit is continuing to move into new geographic markets, as it has recently expanded to Poland, France, Spain and India, Li reported.Short-Run IssuesObviously, the market is currently not very enchanted with tech in general and any tech businesses seen as benefiting from the pandemic in particular these days. Unfortunately for Sea, the company’s three main businesses are all in the latter category.Two other characteristics that the Street does not like at all these days are lack of profitability and a high valuation. Sea has both of these characteristics as well.In Q3, for example, its net loss came in at $425.26 million. While that loss was 34% better than the $571 million it shed during the same period a year earlier, the company still obviously lost a great deal of money.On two positive notes, the company’s operating expenses dropped to $713 million in Q3 from $1.45 billion in the year-earlier period, while its EBITDA, excluding certain items, climbed to positive $120.4 million from a loss of $165.45 million.Nevertheless, large investors are still likely to view Sea as an unprofitable enterprise.And on the valuation front, SE stock is changing hands for nearly 15x Sea’s trailing 12-month revenue. That’s way down from the stock’s valuation of 23.6x trailing sales as of Sept. 30, but it’s still a very high price to pay for the shares.The Bottom Line on SE StockSea is rapidly growing and has tremendous long-term potential. But as shown by the fact that its shares tumbled by 33% in the last month, it’s not a good stock to buy in the current market.As a result, rather than try to catch this falling knife, investors should wait for the market’s attitude towards names like SE stock to improve before taking a bullish position in it.

Unfortunately for Sea, the company’s three main businesses are all in the latter category.Two other characteristics that the Street does not like at all these days are lack of profitability and a high valuation. Sea has both of these characteristics as well.In Q3, for example, its net loss came in at $425.26 million. While that loss was 34% better than the $571 million it shed during the same period a year earlier, the company still obviously lost a great deal of money.On two positive notes, the company’s operating expenses dropped to $713 million in Q3 from $1.45 billion in the year-earlier period, while its EBITDA, excluding certain items, climbed to positive $120.4 million from a loss of $165.45 million.Nevertheless, large investors are still likely to view Sea as an unprofitable enterprise.And on the valuation front, SE stock is changing hands for nearly 15x Sea’s trailing 12-month revenue. That’s way down from the stock’s valuation of 23.6x trailing sales as of Sept. 30, but it’s still a very high price to pay for the shares.The Bottom Line on SE StockSea is rapidly growing and has tremendous long-term potential. But as shown by the fact that its shares tumbled by 33% in the last month, it’s not a good stock to buy in the current market.As a result, rather than try to catch this falling knife, investors should wait for the market’s attitude towards names like SE stock to improve before taking a bullish position in it. Those who follow that advice will almost certainly get a better price and sleep more easily at night than those who don’t.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9090746263,"gmtCreate":1643273339072,"gmtModify":1676533793331,"author":{"id":"4102495020619380","authorId":"4102495020619380","name":"romanc9","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/76bfe37245defa055adfff7453f1520f","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b073a07f77dbe6b3bec6b12311fde6bd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"htmlText":"Tesla is also not making profit overall.
