One example is found with a list of Bill Gates stocks.</p><p>This article will examine three of our favorite names among the Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation. The portfolio holds just 21 common stocks.</p><p>In this article, we will examine three of our dividend-paying favorites in the portfolio.</p><p>They are:</p><ul><li><b>Microsoft</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Walmart</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Waste Management</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WM</u></b>)</li></ul><p>Bill Gates Stocks: Microsoft (MSFT)</p><p>First up on our list of Bill Gates stocks is the company Gates used to lead, Microsoft, which also happens to be one of the largest companies in the world.</p><p>The company develops, manufactures, and sells software and hardware to businesses and consumers. Microsoft’s products include operating systems, business software, software development tools, cloud services and video games and gaming hardware. The $2.5 trillion company has annual revenues of $168 billion. Microsoft is the seventh largest holding in the Gates Foundation’s portfolio.</p><p>To reach a market capitalization of Microsoft’s size takes multiple competitive advantages to achieve.</p><p>Microsoft’s transition to cloud computing service during the middle of the previous decade has positioned the company as the top name in an expanding industry. Some estimates put the global cloud computing market size at $445 billion for 2021, but the size of the market could more than double by 2026.</p><p>The Covid-19 pandemic probably accelerated the move to cloud as business, schools, government, and other institutions and industries moved online over the last two years. Microsoft’s Azure has had extensive growth as customers seek out the company’s offerings. For context, Microsoft’s cloud business generated nearly $21 billion in revenue in its most recent quarter.</p><p>The company’s personal computing segment also remains a core business, but has expanded beyond just operating systems to include gaming, search, advertising, news and tablets. Microsoft’s Office 365 business has seen impressive growth rates once the product lineup moved to a software-as-a-service system, including a 23% improvement in revenue last quarter. This recurring revenue stream provides Microsoft with an abundance of cash to deploy for acquisitions, share repurchase or dividends.</p><p>Microsoft has one of the best balance sheets in the entire market. The company is one of just two that has a AAA credit rating, the highest credit rating available. Microsoft’s business has been so successful at generating cash that the company had nearly $130 billion of cash and short-term investments on its balance sheet against $50 billion of long-term debt.</p><p>Microsoft has used its abundance of free cash flow to provide 20 consecutive years of dividend growth. The dividend yield is just 0.8%, but the expected payout ratio for the current fiscal year is very low at 28%.</p><p>With strong growth rates, including an earnings-per-share CAGR of close to 27% over the past five fiscal years, and a leadership position in nearly all of its businesses, it is likely that Microsoft will continue to see excellent results as well as raise its dividend going forward.</p><p>Walmart (WMT)</p><p>The next among our Bill Gates stocks is Walmart, which is the largest retail chain in the world. The company opened its first discount store in 1945, but today has operations around the world.</p><p>Walmart has a market capitalization of more than $400 billion and generates annual revenue of $545 billion. Walmart checks in as the fifth largest position in the portfolio.</p><p>Like Microsoft, Walmart benefits from a massive presence in its industry. The company has close to 3,570 supercenters, 800 Neighborhood Markets and 600 Sam’s Clubs in the U.S. alone. Walmart also has a strong international presence as the company has another 6,100 stores spread over 25 different countries around the world.</p><p>It is estimated that Walmart sees 230 million customers each week around the world. This provides the company an extremely large customer base, something that very few, if any, other retailers can claim.</p><p>The reach of the company is one of the primary reasons that Walmart can keep its prices on everyday items low as merchants want access to the customer base. Another factor in keeping prices low is that Walmart’s distribution network reduces the cost of transporting goods to stores.</p><p>Walmart’s low prices are always attractive to consumers, especially under recessionary conditions when budgets become tighter. This helps to shield the company from declines in revenue and earnings-per-share even in the event of an economic downturn. The company’s performance during the Great Recession speaks to this as earnings-per-share grew high single-digits each year during the 2007 to 2009 time period.</p><p>The company also prospered during the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic as revenue climbed higher every quarter during calendar year 2020. Higher demand during the height of the pandemic wasn’t a one-off event either. The two-year stack rates for revenue growth are in the high single-digit to low double-digit range for each of the last four quarters. Comparable sales were up nearly 16% on a two-year stack basis in the most recent quarter. Top-line gains have been abundant over the medium-term as year-over-year revenue has shown improvement every quarter for the past five years.</p><p>Walmart’s most recent focus has been on building its e-commerce business, something that likely will provide meaningful lift to the business. E-commerce really took off in 2020, as sales through this channel were up 79% as consumers used online shopping to meet their needs during the pandemic. Again, this was far from a one-time event as e-commerce sales were higher by 8% in the third-quarter of fiscal year 2022, showing that this channel remains an important avenue for revenue growth.</p><p>Walmart’s successful execution of its business model over the years has enabled the company to grow its dividend for 48 consecutive years, putting the company just two years shy of reaching Dividend King status. The stock offers a market beating dividend yield of 1.6% that looks very safe due to the projected payout ratio of 34% for the year.</p><p>With a large footprint worldwide and a growing e-commerce business, Walmart should remain one of the leading retailers in the market place.</p><p>Bill Gates Stocks: Waste Management (WM)</p><p>Last on our list of Bill Gates stocks is Waste Management, a leading provider of waste management services. The company provides a wide range of services, including collection, transfer, disposal and recycling.</p><p>Waste Management produced revenue of $15 billion last year and is valued at $68 billion today. The stock is the second largest position in Gates Foundation’s portfolio.</p><p>Waste Management is the largest provider of waste services in North America. The company owns and operates close to 270 landfills, 348 transformation stations and 103 material recovery facilities.</p><p>In total, the company’s customer list numbers more than 21 million. There are just a few major names in the industry, giving Waste Management an edge on the competition just due to its size. This also provides the company the ability to increase prices while not risking the loss of its customer base.</p><p>Waste Management has also taken steps to augment its business by acquiring smaller companies. For example, the company purchased Advanced Disposal in late October 2020. The transaction enlarged Waste Management’s footprint as Advanced Disposal provides waste management and recycling services to approximately 3 million commercial, industrial, and residential customers in 16 states in the eastern portion of the country.</p><p>Acquisitions, combined with volume growth, led to a more than 20% increase in revenue in the most recent quarter. Earnings-per-share also grew significantly, providing further evidence that Waste Management has recovered from the pandemic.</p><p>The company has seen an impact from wage inflation in its business, but Waste Management is helping to nullify these pressures with price increases across most of its contracts.</p><p>Waste collection has proven to be a good business to be in even in a recession. The company saw relatively stable earnings results during the last recession. Covid-19 was a slight negative impact on results last year. However, Waste Management is expected to see a new high for earnings-per-share for 2021, speaking to the quality and resilient nature of the company’s business.</p><p>Waste Management has a solid dividend growth streak of its own, having raised distributions for the last 18 years. The stock’s yield comes in at 1.4%. Waste Management has a projected payout ratio for 2021 of 47%. The company’s leadership position in its industry coupled with strategic acquisitions should provide ongoing tailwinds to Waste Management’s business, likely leading to future dividend growth.</p><p>Final Thoughts</p><p>Looking at the holdings of well-known investors can provide the average investor with a list of quality companies to choose from.</p><p>Microsoft, Walmart, and Waste Management are three of the largest positions in the Gates Foundation’ portfolio. Each name is blessed with multiple competitive advantages that sets the companies apart from their respective peer group.</p><p>All three stocks have dividend-growth streaks of at least 18 years, which means each has increased its dividend through at least one recession and one Covid-19 impact year.</p><p>The yields for all three stocks are on the low side, but each business appears primed for continued strength, which will likely lead to continued dividend growth.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Top Bill Gates Stocks for Dividend Growth Investors</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Bill Gates Stocks for Dividend Growth Investors\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-10 10:03 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/01/3-top-bill-gates-stocks-for-dividend-growth-investors/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investors looking for high-quality dividend growth stocks to buy for the long term can gain valuable insights by reviewing the holdings of successful investors.

Each name is blessed with multiple competitive advantages that sets the companies apart from their respective peer group.All three stocks have dividend-growth streaks of at least 18 years, which means each has increased its dividend through at least one recession and one Covid-19 impact year.The yields for all three stocks are on the low side, but each business appears primed for continued strength, which will likely lead to continued dividend growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":523,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9006827187,"gmtCreate":1641692566410,"gmtModify":1676533640118,"author":{"id":"4097794446240170","authorId":"4097794446240170","name":"slowpoke","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e88dc6bccb69d532eff024460ad4aa9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4097794446240170","authorIdStr":"4097794446240170"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ev coming up","listText":"Ev coming up","text":"Ev coming up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9006827187","repostId":"692514505","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":692514505,"gmtCreate":1641043347324,"gmtModify":1676532513147,"author":{"id":"3569316529855154","authorId":"3569316529855154","name":"Deonc","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9aa45dd2eb58357f6477dcfb99d1415","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569316529855154","authorIdStr":"3569316529855154"},"themes":[],"title":"NIO delivered 91,429 vehicles in 2021 in total","htmlText":"NIO delivered 91,429 vehicles in 2021 in total, increasing by 109.1% year-over-year &nbsp;Company Achieved New Quarterly Record and Delivered a Total of 91,429 Vehicles in 2021 NIO delivered 10,489 vehicles in December 2021, increasing by 49.7% year-over-year NIO delivered 25,034 vehicles in the three months ended December 2021, increasing by 44.3% year-over-year NIO delivered 91,429 vehicles in 2021 in total, increasing by 109.1% year-over-year Cumulative deliveries of the ES8, ES6 and EC6 as of December 31, 2021 reached 167,070 SHANGHAI, China, Jan. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NIO Inc.

Affirm Holdings</h2><p>Buy now, pay later (BNPL) took 2021 by storm, growing roughly fourfold to $100 billion this past year. Experts think it could expand to 15 times its current volume by 2025. The simple structure of fixed installments that often carry zero interest is rapidly gaining popularity over traditional consumer credit cards.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60125fdb7af8793177def84d6bf63e34\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"444\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p><b>Affirm</b> (NASDAQ:AFRM) is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the leading BNPL companies. It works with its retail partners to offer installment payment plans on products. Users can shop right from the Affirm app and use Affirm&#39;s payment tools when checking out. Retailers have an incentive to use BNPL because it increases order size and customer loyalty. Shoppers can fit more into their carts, and they like the simple financing. In other words, it has become a sales tool for retailers.</p><p>Affirm has secured numerous partnerships with leading e-commerce merchants, including <b>Amazon</b>, <b>Walmart</b>, <b>Shopify</b>, and <b>Target</b>. In its first quarter of 2022 (period ending Sept. 30, 2021), the company reported that its merchant partnerships had increased 1,468% year over year to 102,200. Affirm hasn&#39;t even commented on its guidance since announcing the Amazon partnership, so it seems reasonable that its 84% year-over-year merchandise volume growth in 2022 Q1 could continue from here.</p><p>Despite this good news, the stock has been caught up in a broader market tech sell-off and has fallen more than 50% from its highs.

Crowdstrike Holdings</h2><p>The world is becoming increasingly digital at a rapid pace. Yet, consumers&#39; and businesses&#39; tools to protect themselves from digital threats are largely still behind the times. Someone could do a simple internet search and find countless instances of breached, hacked, or compromised companies.</p><p><b>CrowdStrike</b> (NASDAQ:CRWD) is a cloud-based leader in endpoint security, in which a network protects user devices like computers and mobile devices from digital threats. In the old days, people would download antivirus software, receive occasional updates from the security company which ultimately would tell the antivirus program what threats looked like.</p><p>CrowdStrike&#39;s Falcon platform delivers various protections through the cloud, giving the software real-time information and updates. Devices connected on Falcon are linked, similar to a massive network. If an attack happens on one device, the system learns and instantly shares this information with the other devices throughout the network. As more devices are connected, it creates a network effect, and the Falcon platform learns more, faster.</p><p>The stock has had a great run since COVID-19 started but has since pulled back roughly 40% from its highs. CrowdStrike grew subscription revenue 67% year over year in its most recent quarter, the third quarter of 2022 (Oct. 31, 2021), to $357 million. The company is reporting net losses but is growing its free cash flow; it was $123.5 million in 2022 Q3, a 62% year-over-year increase. Free cash flow is a positive step toward posting a profit, so investors should look for cash flow to keep growing, and net losses to shrink over the coming quarters.</p><h2>3. Sea Limited</h2><p>The population in Southeast Asia is friendly toward technology; the region boasts a population of roughly 670 million, and half are under age 30. They also tend to spend eight hours on the internet each day, more than the global average. In other words, they are a great target market for digital businesses.</p><p><b>Sea Limited</b> (NYSE:SE) is an internet company with various digital business segments, including e-commerce, mobile gaming, and financial services. Garena, its gaming business, is driven by FreeFire, one of the most popular mobile games in the world. It&#39;s also the most profitable part of the company, responsible for all of Sea&#39;s adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA).</p><p>The company uses these profits to expand other parts of its business heavily. For example, Sea has taken its e-commerce business, Shopee, to other regions in the world, including Latin America, Europe, and India. The company is aggressively pumping its cash back into the business to pay for the employees, buildings, and resources needed for these new markets, so the overall business is losing money right now. However, I expect that the spending eventually levels off, and revenue growth will outpace the money Sea spends, pushing the company toward profits. Investors will want to pay attention to whether losses grow or shrink in future quarters.</p><p>Sea&#39;s total revenue grew 122% year over year in its most recent quarter, 2021 Q3, and there is reason to believe that rapid growth can continue for years to come. E-commerce, gaming, and fintech are all massive addressable markets, and Sea&#39;s ambition to attack them at a global scale gives the business a virtually endless runway for growth. The stock is 50% off its highs, so investors with the patience to hold for the long term could be scooping up shares at a nice discount.</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>My 3 Favorite Stocks 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\">\nMy 3 Favorite Stocks Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-09 09:23 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/08/my-3-favorite-stocks-right-now/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Unless a portfolio is constructed entirely of mega-cap stocks, it's probably seeing more red than green days lately.
