  Tesla’s Stock Split: What You Need to Know
  Tesla stock has been trading at a high nominal price for quite awhile. So what explains the company’s move to split the stock right now?In a stock split, the value of your investment doesn’t change. If you own 100 shares of Tesla stock at $750 per share on the day of the split, for example, you’ll own 300 shares at the new split price of $250 once the transaction goes into effect. In each case, the underlying stock is worth $75,000.While the stock split itself doesn’t change an investment’s valu

I gave NIO a buy rating back then since I was fundamentally bullish, but the environment and share price were not. Now, with the latest results in place, numerous catalysts and a strong trend reversal, I am shifting my view back to a strong buy.</p><p>Let’s begin by looking at deliveries for the latest quarter.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0bdf6679d390abdee3945b62903d029\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"188\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Q1 Deliveries(IR NIO)</p><p>NIO delivered 25,768 vehicles in Q1, which was only a 0.3% increase versus the latest quarter but a 25% increase YoY.</p><p>While deliveries have certainly been underwhelming, it is perhaps the shrinking margins which investors have been most concerned about:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fab46e448af8f6c75ae7f2b5c8095456\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"274\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Financial Results(NIO IR)</p><p>Although NIO provided a technical beat on EPS, vehicle margin has contracted by 310bp YoY and 280bp QoQ. The gross margin now sits at 14.8%, while it was 19.5% this time last year.</p><p>Investors are rightly asking themselves how a company like NIO will return value to them in the future. NIO is in a very competitive market and is also fighting supply disruptions, along with higher input costs brought about by inflation.</p><p>However, if we focus on what NIO can control, we see strong initiatives coming from the company to improve profitability, improve their product offerings, and keep growing at a fast rate.</p><p><b>Numerous Catalysts</b></p><p>NIO is doing everything it can to solve the problems it faces today. But complex problems require complex solutions, and it will take time for NIO to turn things around.</p><p>One such initiative is NIO announcing plans to develop its own battery pack in 2024. The company will produce an 800-volt pack and use a combination of in-home and outsourced batteries for its production needs.</p><p>This follows a prior announcement that NIO was investing $32.8 million to develop a lithium-ion battery lab in Shanghai. This is a great move on NIO&#39;s part, as lithium lies at the heart of battery technology and is becoming an expensive and scarce resource. EV makers that can find a way to optimize the use of lithium will have a great advantage over competitors moving forward.</p><p>Also, NIO’s founder William Li announced recently that the company would be launching a development (R&amp;D) center for autonomous driving and artificial intelligence in Singapore, where NIO shares were recently listed.</p><p>On top of that, it’s worth mentioning that NIO is building another factory in Lu&#39;an city, which will be completed in the first half of 2023. This park will make aluminum die-casting products, which will not only improve NIO’s margins but also help reduce emissions by 50%.</p><p>On the profitability front, NIO is doing its best to keep costs down by investing in better technology and increasing its production capacity, which will provide them with economies of scale.</p><p>On the more imminent growth part of the equation, we also have two recent catalysts that will help NIO maintain high levels of growth.</p><p>Firstly, the company has announced the launch of the ES7, a mid-large-sized SUV. What’s most notable about this launch is that it will be the first NIO vehicle to operate on the new NT 2.0 technology platform, which features level 4 autonomous driving. The ES7 could be a game-changer for NIO, and it should help boost sales starting in September.</p><p>Furthermore, NIO will also be getting help from the Chinese government. As one of the many measures introduced by the CCP to promote consumption after the pandemic, China will be increasing the quota for passenger cars. In China, the ownership of cars is limited, but this limit will be increased this year, which will be a catalyst for car manufacturers as a whole.</p><p>To this, we can add the fact that China will probably be expanding EV subsidies until next year.</p><p>In conclusion, we have numerous catalysts in play now that were not present a month ago, which is changing investor sentiment.</p><p><b>Early Signs of A Bottom</b></p><p>The events of the last month have propelled NIO shares higher since we reached a bottom at around $14. Investor sentiment looks to have shifted, COVID lockdowns in China are ending, the government is moving to increase consumption, and both NIO and the market as a whole have come down to much more attractive valuations.</p><p>We are beginning to see signs of a bottom, and this is also evident if we look at NIO’s price chart:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9e8016b3ec78347b3f5c43727e90b0c7\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"653\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Technical Analysis(Author&#39;s work)</p><p>As we can see from the chart above, NIO has now escaped the downtrend channel it has been in since November of last year. On top of that, we have seen very impulsive moves, with NIO rallying over 10% on numerous days. From an Elliott Wave perspective, we could point out 5 waves up, forming a diagonal.</p><p>Lastly, the RSI and MACD are also giving us bullish indications. On the 1D chart, the RSI has established a clear uptrend, but it is still far from overbought. The MACD has avoided a bullish crossover and gained momentum, which is also encouraging.</p><p>All in all, we are seeing early signs of a bottom. The sentiment is changing, which is backed up by the technical picture.</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>EVs are essentially computers on wheels. That’s why comparisons and valuations with “traditional” auto manufacturers are inappropriate. EV makers are like tech companies, collecting data with every ride, and the value of this data is hard to calculate (though we know it is significant).</p><p>With that said, NIO currently trades at a P/S of 4, and this seems pretty low considering future growth prospects:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b56774ecb609017deaffbfadf74ebf48\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"174\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Revenue Forecasts(Seeking Alpha)</p><p>By 2025 NIO could achieve between $23-$35 billion in revenue, implying a fwd P/S of 0.89. NIO’s average P/S since its inception has been close to 11, and Tesla currently trades at a P/S close to 8. NIO’s P/S should be closer to this in the long run, and even using a conservative figure of 6, NIO shares could easily double from here.</p><p>On top of that, investing in NIO at these prices comes with a considerable safety net. NIO has about 5$/share and is trading at only four times that. This is a company that is growing fast and is nowhere near bankruptcy. Realistically, the shares can’t go down much below recent lows.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Investing in NIO doesn’t come without risks. Chinese stocks are in a delicate situation right now, given geopolitical tensions and delisting fears, which I addressed in my last article.</p><p>As mentioned above, NIO favors a challenging macro environment and a competitive landscape, but I see evidence that the company can turn this around.</p><p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p><p>NIO Inc is one of the leading EV manufacturers in China, quickly becoming a global company. While recent results could be interpreted as weak, the company is making the right moves to improve profitability and keep growing. Furthermore, investors should remember that EVs are more than just cars, and the value of the data and technology in them is hard to calculate at this point; this is why Tesla and NIO command much higher valuation multiples.</p><p>While it is still early days, I believe the most likely scenario now is that the bottom is in.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>NIO: Results Are In, And Maybe So Is The Bottom</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\">\nNIO: Results Are In, And Maybe So Is The Bottom\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-22 11:50 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4519556-nio-results-are-in-and-so-is-the-bottom?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A9><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryNIO announced Q1 results and underwhelmed investors.Under the surface, many catalysts are in play for NIO, and this is why shares have rallied strongly in the last month.The bottom might be in,...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4519556-nio-results-are-in-and-so-is-the-bottom?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A9\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO.SI":"蔚来","09866":"蔚来-SW","NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4519556-nio-results-are-in-and-so-is-the-bottom?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A9","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1133497983","content_text":"SummaryNIO announced Q1 results and underwhelmed investors.Under the surface, many catalysts are in play for NIO, and this is why shares have rallied strongly in the last month.The bottom might be in, and NIO could appreciate over 300% in the coming months.Thesis SummaryNIO Inc.

On top of that, we have seen very impulsive moves, with NIO rallying over 10% on numerous days. From an Elliott Wave perspective, we could point out 5 waves up, forming a diagonal.Lastly, the RSI and MACD are also giving us bullish indications. On the 1D chart, the RSI has established a clear uptrend, but it is still far from overbought. The MACD has avoided a bullish crossover and gained momentum, which is also encouraging.All in all, we are seeing early signs of a bottom. The sentiment is changing, which is backed up by the technical picture.ValuationEVs are essentially computers on wheels. That’s why comparisons and valuations with “traditional” auto manufacturers are inappropriate. EV makers are like tech companies, collecting data with every ride, and the value of this data is hard to calculate (though we know it is significant).With that said, NIO currently trades at a P/S of 4, and this seems pretty low considering future growth prospects:NIO Revenue Forecasts(Seeking Alpha)By 2025 NIO could achieve between $23-$35 billion in revenue, implying a fwd P/S of 0.89. NIO’s average P/S since its inception has been close to 11, and Tesla currently trades at a P/S close to 8. NIO’s P/S should be closer to this in the long run, and even using a conservative figure of 6, NIO shares could easily double from here.On top of that, investing in NIO at these prices comes with a considerable safety net. NIO has about 5$/share and is trading at only four times that. This is a company that is growing fast and is nowhere near bankruptcy. Realistically, the shares can’t go down much below recent lows.RisksInvesting in NIO doesn’t come without risks. Chinese stocks are in a delicate situation right now, given geopolitical tensions and delisting fears, which I addressed in my last article.As mentioned above, NIO favors a challenging macro environment and a competitive landscape, but I see evidence that the company can turn this around.Final ThoughtsNIO Inc is one of the leading EV manufacturers in China, quickly becoming a global company. While recent results could be interpreted as weak, the company is making the right moves to improve profitability and keep growing. Furthermore, investors should remember that EVs are more than just cars, and the value of the data and technology in them is hard to calculate at this point; this is why Tesla and NIO command much higher valuation multiples.While it is still early days, I believe the most likely scenario now is that the bottom is in.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":446,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9040827653,"gmtCreate":1655644462572,"gmtModify":1676535677005,"author":{"id":"3571724085940875","authorId":"3571724085940875","name":"TZR","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3571724085940875","authorIdStr":"3571724085940875"},"themes":[],"htmlText":".","listText":".","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9040827653","repostId":"1182929680","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1182929680","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1655602617,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1182929680?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-19 09:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla’s Stock Split: What You Need to Know","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1182929680","media":"investorplace","summary":"Tesla stock has been trading at a high nominal price for quite awhile.

However, there are currently 1,036,390,569 shares of existing TSLA stock. This means that Tesla will have roughly 3.1 billion shares of stock after its proposed split, which is well over the present two billion cap.

So what explains the company’s move to split the stock right now? In itsproxy statement, Tesla called out its employee compensation as a primary driver behind the move:</p><blockquote>“We believe the Stock Split would help reset the market price of our common stock so that our employees will have more flexibility in managing their equity, all of which, in our view, may help maximize stockholder value. In addition, as retail investors have expressed a high level of interest in investing in our stock, we believe the Stock Split will also make our common stock more accessible to our retail shareholders.”</blockquote><p>In addition, as that statement highlights, Tesla believes this will make TSLA stock more appealing for retail investors.

Same goes for some investors who may not have much capital to work with. A $250 stock feels more approachable than a $750 one.</p><p>Finally, there’s an impact in the options market, as well. To buy a call option on Tesla, for example, it often costs thousands of dollars per contract due to the high stock price of the underlying company. Making Tesla’s stock cheaper will also make its corresponding options more affordable for average retail traders. As much of Tesla’s overall trading activity occurs in put and call options, this split could help level the playing field for smaller investors.</p><h2>TSLA Stock Verdict</h2><p>To be clear, splitting one’s stock isn’t a foolproof move. <b>Amazon.com</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>), for example, just issued a20:1 stock splitof its shares and that did nothing to support the stock price.

While market internals have not exactly been rousing as this rally continues, they have not been negative, either.</p><p>The 4600 level was a double resistance area from February (see horizontal line on the accompanying chart). On March 29, the S&amp;P 500 gapped up over that level in a show of strength, but it was not able to continue that the next day.</p><p>Even so, the moving averages and the “modified Bollinger Bands” (mBB) are now trending higher, and that is a sign that the SPX chart has turned bullish, at least for now. The next resistance level is 4700, and then at the all-time highs at 4800.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/1894fc906c1cfdfa5da5f3939ba8b48e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"527\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Lawrence McMillan</span></p><p>SPX also touched the +4σ mBB, and that completes the McMillan Volatility Band (MVB) buy that was issued in late January. If SPX pushes higher, it might set up a new sell signal, but for now there is not an MVB signal in play.</p><p>Equity-only put-call ratios are one of our most bullish indicators at this time, as these ratios continue to fall sharply. They have fallen below their February lows, which is bullish confirmation.</p><p>There is a lot of room between their current position on their charts and the chart lows, which is where sell signals would normally take place. That is, the bulls have a lot of room to roam with this buy signal.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b7bf8dbc8e87a30b974d771776a21949\" tg-width=\"699\" tg-height=\"526\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Lawrence McMillan</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a3bdcffa6ab029ae7638878ecc312af\" tg-width=\"699\" tg-height=\"526\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Lawrence McMillan</span></p><p>Market breadth has been a laggard, though. That is not going to come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to market internals over the last year or so. Breadth has struggled to keep pace for a long time.</p><p>This past week, the only strong breadth day was March 29, when SPX gapped up over 4600. Still, the breadth oscillators remain on buy signals at this time. If SPX does move higher from here, we need to see breadth expand, lest we end up with a negative divergence such as we had for the last six months of 2021, which led to the correction that ensued at the beginning of 2022.</p><p>New 52-week highs have finally eked out a gain over new 52-week lows. This has resulted in a buy signal from the NYSE data for this indicator. “Stocks only” and NASDAQ data have improved, too. At this point, the buy signal is tenuous, but it’s the first one this year for new highs vs. new lows.</p><p>VIX indicators have turned more positive as well. Technically, the VIX “spike peak” buy signal of late February has “expired” (the trading system we built around peaks on the VIX chart calls for holding the position for 22 trading days, and that time has elapsed). But it was a successful signal, and one can still retain positions based on it, as long as stops are tightened and long call strikes are rolled higher.</p><p>The trend of VIX is no longer bearish (that is, VIX is no longer in an uptrend), since VIX has closed below its 200-day moving average. However, that only removes the intermediate-term sell signal; it is not a buy signal. The VIX 20-day MA would have to cross below the 200-day MA in order for an intermediate-term buy signal to be generated.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84d0934095fe234a770bebe2dba58a51\" tg-width=\"699\" tg-height=\"526\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Lawrence McMillan</span></p><p>The last time that both VIX and its 20-day MA were below the 200-day MA was late last November (note the circle on the accompanying VIX chart). In early January, VIX crossed below the 200-day MA (similar to what has just happened now), but the 20-day did not, and eventually that led to trouble for the markets a couple of weeks later when VIX began to rise again. So stay alert.</p><p>The construct of volatility derivatives remains in a modestly bullish state for stocks. The term structure of the VIX futures slopes upward in the front end, and the VIX futures are trading at healthy premiums to VIX. Also, the Cboe Volatility Index term structure slopes upward.</p><p>In summary, there are no sell signals among our indicators at this time, and there are quite a few buy signals, the strongest being the equity-only put-call ratio. We are waiting for some of the “neutral” indicators to generate signals, but that could take some time to develop.</p><p>So we are no longer carrying a “core” bearish position, and we are trading our shorter-term signals from the other indicators accordingly. Continue to tighten stops and roll call strikes higher as this rally proceeds.</p><p><b>New recommendation: Russell 2000 ETF</b></p><p>The Russell 2000 was under extreme pressure for most of the first three months of this year. But now it appears to be recovering. There was a long support line at 209 last year, and then when that was broken on the downside this year, it became resistance.

While market internals have not exactly been rousing as this rally continues, they have not been negative, either.The 4600 level was a double resistance area from February (see horizontal line on the accompanying chart). On March 29, the S&P 500 gapped up over that level in a show of strength, but it was not able to continue that the next day.Even so, the moving averages and the “modified Bollinger Bands” (mBB) are now trending higher, and that is a sign that the SPX chart has turned bullish, at least for now. The next resistance level is 4700, and then at the all-time highs at 4800.Lawrence McMillanSPX also touched the +4σ mBB, and that completes the McMillan Volatility Band (MVB) buy that was issued in late January. If SPX pushes higher, it might set up a new sell signal, but for now there is not an MVB signal in play.Equity-only put-call ratios are one of our most bullish indicators at this time, as these ratios continue to fall sharply. They have fallen below their February lows, which is bullish confirmation.There is a lot of room between their current position on their charts and the chart lows, which is where sell signals would normally take place. That is, the bulls have a lot of room to roam with this buy signal.Lawrence McMillanLawrence McMillanMarket breadth has been a laggard, though. That is not going to come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to market internals over the last year or so. Breadth has struggled to keep pace for a long time.This past week, the only strong breadth day was March 29, when SPX gapped up over 4600. Still, the breadth oscillators remain on buy signals at this time. If SPX does move higher from here, we need to see breadth expand, lest we end up with a negative divergence such as we had for the last six months of 2021, which led to the correction that ensued at the beginning of 2022.New 52-week highs have finally eked out a gain over new 52-week lows. This has resulted in a buy signal from the NYSE data for this indicator. “Stocks only” and NASDAQ data have improved, too. At this point, the buy signal is tenuous, but it’s the first one this year for new highs vs. new lows.VIX indicators have turned more positive as well. Technically, the VIX “spike peak” buy signal of late February has “expired” (the trading system we built around peaks on the VIX chart calls for holding the position for 22 trading days, and that time has elapsed). But it was a successful signal, and one can still retain positions based on it, as long as stops are tightened and long call strikes are rolled higher.The trend of VIX is no longer bearish (that is, VIX is no longer in an uptrend), since VIX has closed below its 200-day moving average. However, that only removes the intermediate-term sell signal; it is not a buy signal. The VIX 20-day MA would have to cross below the 200-day MA in order for an intermediate-term buy signal to be generated.Lawrence McMillanThe last time that both VIX and its 20-day MA were below the 200-day MA was late last November (note the circle on the accompanying VIX chart). In early January, VIX crossed below the 200-day MA (similar to what has just happened now), but the 20-day did not, and eventually that led to trouble for the markets a couple of weeks later when VIX began to rise again. So stay alert.The construct of volatility derivatives remains in a modestly bullish state for stocks. The term structure of the VIX futures slopes upward in the front end, and the VIX futures are trading at healthy premiums to VIX. Also, the Cboe Volatility Index term structure slopes upward.In summary, there are no sell signals among our indicators at this time, and there are quite a few buy signals, the strongest being the equity-only put-call ratio. We are waiting for some of the “neutral” indicators to generate signals, but that could take some time to develop.So we are no longer carrying a “core” bearish position, and we are trading our shorter-term signals from the other indicators accordingly. Continue to tighten stops and roll call strikes higher as this rally proceeds.New recommendation: Russell 2000 ETFThe Russell 2000 was under extreme pressure for most of the first three months of this year. But now it appears to be recovering. There was a long support line at 209 last year, and then when that was broken on the downside this year, it became resistance. The Russell 2000 ETF is challenging that resistance now, and there are put-call ratio buy signals on the Index as well. IWM closed above 209 on March 29 but fell back below it on March 30.IF IWM closes above 209,THEN buy 2 IWM Apr (22nd) 210 calls.IWM: 207.59Stop yourself out on a close below 204.Lawrence McMillanNew recommendation: Federal Realty Investment TrustThere is a high-level put-call ratio buy signal in Federal Realty Investment Trust. One from a similar level about a year worked out well.Buy 2 FRT May (20th) 125 calls at a price of 4.00 or less.We will hold as long as the put-call ratio remains on a buy signal.Lawrence McMillanFollow-up actionAll stops are mental closing stops unless otherwise noted.We are going to implement a “standard” rolling procedure for our SPY spreads: in any vertical bull or bear spread, if the underlying hits the short strike, then roll the entire spread. That would be roll up in the case of a call bull spread, or roll down in the case of a bear put spread. Stay in the same expiration, and keep the distance between the strikes the same unless otherwise instructed.Long 700 FTK: Flotek Industries was stopped out on March 28, when it closed below 1.40.Long 0 SPY Apr (14th) 460 call and short 0 SPY Apr (14th) 472 call: This position was taken in line with the MVB buy signal. It was rolled up this past week, when SPY traded at the higher strike in the spread, 460on March 29. It turns out that SPX touched the +4σ Band on March 29, so this position should be closed.Long FUN Apr (14th) 60 calls:We will hold without a stop as these takeover rumors play out.Long 0 SPY April (14th) 420 put and short 0 SPY April (14th) 390 put, plus also long 0 SPY Apr (14th) 440 put and short 0 SPY April (14th) 410 put:This was our “core” bearish position. It was stopped out when SPX closed above 460 on March 29.Long 1 SPY Apr (14th) 452 call and short 1 SPY Apr (14th) 467 call:A call bull spread was bought on Feb. 24, in line with the VIX “spike peak” buy signal that occurred that day, and that has since been rolled up. It was rolled up again this week, when SPX traded at 452 on March 25. Stop yourself out if VIX returns to “spiking mode”—that is, if VIX closes at least 3.00 points over any one-, two- or three-day period.Long 2 ZEN April (14th) 125 calls and short 2 April (14th) 140 calls:Hold without a stop while the activist activity is in progress.Long 2 BBBY April (8th) 21 calls:Stop yourself out on a close below 18.Long 2 ORCL May (20th) 77.5 calls:We bought these near the close of trading on March 15, when Oracle closed above 78. We will hold as long as the put-call ratio buy signal is in effect, which it still is. Since the stock is rising, roll up to the May (20th) 82.5 calls for a credit of 3.50 or more.Long 2 KSS Apr (14th) 62.5: Hold while takeover rumors play out.Long 5 PSO Apr (14th) 10 calls:Pearson rejected a highly conditional bid from Apollo, and now Apollo has said it won’t bid at all. The stock has lost some ground, and even though Apollo may well return as a buyer in the future, we are recommending selling these calls now to close the position.Long 3 NLSN May (20th) 22 calls: Nielsen accepted a $28 cash buyout offer. Sell the calls now and be sure to get at least parity for them.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":340,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9098972749,"gmtCreate":1644019813990,"gmtModify":1676533881748,"author":{"id":"3571724085940875","authorId":"3571724085940875","name":"TZR","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3571724085940875","authorIdStr":"3571724085940875"},"themes":[],"htmlText":".","listText":".","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9098972749","repostId":"2209498003","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2209498003","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1644016362,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2209498003?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-05 07:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nasdaq Regains Ground after Choppy Week Driven by Big Tech Earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2209498003","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Amazon records biggest ever one-day gain in value by U.S. comp* Snap, Pinterest jump on strong res","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>* Amazon records biggest ever one-day gain in value by U.S. comp</p><p>* Snap, Pinterest jump on strong results</p><p>* Nasdaq ends week up 2.4%, S&amp;P 1.6% higher, Dow gains 1.1%</p><p>* Indexes on Friday: Dow down 0.06%, S&amp;P up 0.52%, Nasdaq up 1.58%</p><p>Feb 4 (Reuters) - Another bumpy ride on Wall Street ended on Friday as Amazon&#39;s positive earnings capped a run of mixed big-tech numbers, with the Nasdaq recovering much of its losses from the previous session and all three benchmarks ending the week in positive territory.</p><p>Results from megacap growth stocks have dictated market moves this week, as investors seek out tangible data to support sky-high valuations.</p><p>Amazon.com Inc jumped 13.5% after reporting robust earnings in the holiday quarter.
