But it takes technology a step further. Using artificial intelligence and machine learning tools, it monitors used-car auctions to identify the hottest-selling vehicles, and then ensures it has an adequate supply of them in its own inventory.That makes Carvana the ultimate one-stop shop for prospective buyers.The key to Carvana's success is volume. Adopting a fully digital approach means it has the opportunity to sell significantly more cars, simply because it can reach a much wider audience. In fact, the company claims to serve 80.6% of the U.S. population, and that figure continues to grow.It explains (in part) the company's rapid growth over the last few years.MetricQ3 2018 TTMQ3 2021 TTMCAGRRevenue$1.6 billion$10.8 billion88%Gross profit per unit sold$2,302 (Q3 2018)$4,672 (Q3 2021)26%Vehicles sold79,875384,39368%DATA SOURCE: CARVANA. CAGR = COMPOUND ANNUAL GROWTH RATE. CARVANA REPORTS ITS Q4 2021 RESULT ON FEB. 24 2022.The company has been helped bysoaring used car priceson the back of new vehicle shortages, thanks tosemiconductorsupply constraints during 2020 and 2021. Used cars have enjoyed a broad rise in value of 37% over the last 12 months, according to the most recent inflation data. It's unreasonable to expect this to continue forever, so some of Carvana's growth is likely to taper off over the next couple of years.The University of Michigan survey of consumer sentiment also supports this. In December 2021, just 27% of consumers thought it was a good time to buy a car, compared to 58% in the prior-year period. As it turns out, hardly anybody wants to pay inflated prices for used vehicles.But Wall Street is on boardOn Jan. 24, Wall Street investment bank Morgan Stanley reiterated its overweight rating on Carvana's stock, and attached a $430 price target. That represents 173% upside from today's price of $157, so even with potential headwinds on the horizon, the bank thinks Carvana's digital approach is enough for it to continue gaining traction with consumers.And Morgan Stanley isn't alone. A total of 13 analysts have a buy rating on Carvana's stock, and six have a hold, with an average price target of $344 which represents 119% growth from here.The broadtech sell-offmight have served up a solid opportunity to add Carvana to your portfolio, but the market remains uncertain, so it's best to adopt a long-term strategy if you do buy the stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CVNA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3671,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9099299825,"gmtCreate":1643360669835,"gmtModify":1676533810697,"author":{"id":"4102050563512520","authorId":"4102050563512520","name":"Jennycute10","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/507cee5d2260759c49e3dd1dac8ecb9d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4102050563512520","authorIdStr":"4102050563512520"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"❤️💚🙏🏻","listText":"❤️💚🙏🏻","text":"❤️💚🙏🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9099299825","repostId":"1146668616","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1146668616","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":1643360446,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146668616?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-28 17:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Shares Jumped 4% in Premarket Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146668616","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple shares jumped 4% in premarket trading.

Analysts also generally aren't sweating the manufacturing issues that drove Apple to its first revenue miss in 12 quarters during the September period.</p><p>When the company reports fiscal first-quarter earnings Thursday afternoon, analysts expect Apple's operational strength and buying power as the largest U.S. company will help it hit new sales records for a holiday season and calendar year. Those surveyed by FactSet are calling for $118.9 billion in December-quarter revenue, ahead of the $111.4 billion that Apple recorded a year earlier, which would lead to a record $373.3 billion in sales for the full calendar year, up from $294.1 billion in 2020.</p><p>While Apple is expected to survive supply-chain issues, investors will be looking for signs that Apple executives expect to see some relief in 2022, though few expect a formal forecast.</p><p>"We expect a focus on any commentary supportive of a belief that the supply chain is improving, continued confidence in strong end-user demand across the portfolio, as well as services/subscriptions momentum," Wells Fargo analyst Aaron Rakers wrote.</p><p>It remains to be seen how much good news on earnings could help Apple's stock, though. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a> analyst Katy Huberty thinks that the company wasn't as negatively impacted by manufacturing issues as expected, which could allow it to deliver upbeat results and offer guidance for a "relatively in-line March quarter," but she believes that prospect is largely baked into Apple's stock price.</p><p>As Apple chases its quarterly-sales record, it remains shy of a market-capitalization milestone. Its stock briefly touched the level required for a $3 trillion valuation in intraday trading earlier this month, but it failed to close at the necessary threshold and has been headed in the wrong direction since.</p><p>Shares closed Monday at $161.62; they need to finish above $182.86 for Apple to become the first U.S. company to close with a $3 trillion valuation. That threshold will likely get higher after the earnings report, when Apple will show an updated share count reflective of recent buyback activity.</p><p><b>What to watch for</b></p><p><b>Earnings:</b> Analysts tracked by FactSet expect that Apple earned $1.89 a share in its fiscal first quarter, higher than the $1.68 a share that it recorded a year earlier.

Analysts also generally aren't sweating the manufacturing issues that drove Apple to its first revenue miss in 12 quarters during the September period.When the company reports fiscal first-quarter earnings Thursday afternoon, analysts expect Apple's operational strength and buying power as the largest U.S. company will help it hit new sales records for a holiday season and calendar year. Those surveyed by FactSet are calling for $118.9 billion in December-quarter revenue, ahead of the $111.4 billion that Apple recorded a year earlier, which would lead to a record $373.3 billion in sales for the full calendar year, up from $294.1 billion in 2020.While Apple is expected to survive supply-chain issues, investors will be looking for signs that Apple executives expect to see some relief in 2022, though few expect a formal forecast.\"We expect a focus on any commentary supportive of a belief that the supply chain is improving, continued confidence in strong end-user demand across the portfolio, as well as services/subscriptions momentum,\" Wells Fargo analyst Aaron Rakers wrote.It remains to be seen how much good news on earnings could help Apple's stock, though. Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty thinks that the company wasn't as negatively impacted by manufacturing issues as expected, which could allow it to deliver upbeat results and offer guidance for a \"relatively in-line March quarter,\" but she believes that prospect is largely baked into Apple's stock price.As Apple chases its quarterly-sales record, it remains shy of a market-capitalization milestone. Its stock briefly touched the level required for a $3 trillion valuation in intraday trading earlier this month, but it failed to close at the necessary threshold and has been headed in the wrong direction since.Shares closed Monday at $161.62; they need to finish above $182.86 for Apple to become the first U.S. company to close with a $3 trillion valuation. That threshold will likely get higher after the earnings report, when Apple will show an updated share count reflective of recent buyback activity.What to watch forEarnings: Analysts tracked by FactSet expect that Apple earned $1.89 a share in its fiscal first quarter, higher than the $1.68 a share that it recorded a year earlier. According to Estimize, which crowdsources projections from hedge funds, academics, and others, the average estimate was for $1.96 a share.Revenue: The FactSet consensus models $118.9 billion in revenue for Apple's December quarter, up from $111.4 billion a year before. The average projection on Estimize is $120.4 billion.Analysts surveyed by FactSet are looking for $67.6 billion in iPhone revenue, $8.2 billion in iPad revenue, $9.9 billion in Mac revenue, $18.7 billion in services revenue and $14.3 billion in revenue for the wearables, home, and accessories category.Stock movement: Shares of Apple have declined in the session following each of the company's past five earnings reports. While shares are off about 12% from their intraday high of $182.94 notched earlier in January, they're still up roughly 9% on a three-month basis, outperforming the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500.Of the 44 analysts tracked by FactSet who cover Apple's stock, 34 have buy-equivalent ratings, eight have hold ratings and two have sell ratings, with an average price target of $178.57.What analysts are sayingApple's iPhone story is about more than just the company's supply-chain issues. Just a few months after the company's iPhone 13 launch, analysts are curious about demand for the phones, especially at higher price points and in China.Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives said that average selling prices for the iPhone are still \"very positive,\" one reason he's upbeat about the current product cycle.CFRA Research's Angelo Zino is particularly excited about dynamics in China. He expects that the company has been taking share at the high end of the market due to sanction-related pressures on rival Huawei. Apple could also be benefiting in China as smaller players struggle to deal with supply crunches of their own.\"We estimate in China alone there were roughly 15 million iPhone 13 upgrades in the December quarter,\" Ives added.Success in the iPhone business might come with some trade-offs, however, according to Zino. He predicts that the company gave priority to the iPhone over the iPad when it came to chip production, since the iPhone represents a more lucrative business.Apple Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri projected during the last earnings call that the company would notch year-over-year revenue growth in every product category except for iPads in the holiday quarter.Morgan Stanley's Huberty sees room for Apple to come in ahead of consensus estimates for the services business, fueled in part by a stronger-than-expected performance for the App Store. Overall, she thinks services will show \"relative strength\" this fiscal year in a positive signal for Apple's margins.Meanwhile, those expecting a true quarterly outlook from Apple may have to keep waiting. The company hasn't given a traditional financial forecast since the start of the pandemic, and Huberty thinks that the company will once again hold off on providing a numerical range for revenue guidance, instead opting for statements on expected performance relative to recent quarters.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3959,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9007234461,"gmtCreate":1642903765459,"gmtModify":1676533756163,"author":{"id":"4102050563512520","authorId":"4102050563512520","name":"Jennycute10","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/507cee5d2260759c49e3dd1dac8ecb9d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4102050563512520","authorIdStr":"4102050563512520"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"❤️💚🙏🏻","listText":"❤️💚🙏🏻","text":"❤️💚🙏🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9007234461","repostId":"2205042784","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2205042784","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642807833,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2205042784?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-22 07:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Mid-Cap Stocks That Are Wildly Undervalued Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2205042784","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These small-ish companies look like deals given their expected growth rates.","content":"<div>\n<p>While the market overall had a pretty good year in 2021 (the S&P 500, slanted toward large-cap stocks, was up 27%), the performance of small- and mid-cap stocks was mixed.

Some tech stocks suffered sharp pullbacks after skyrocketing earlier on in the pandemic, even though the businesses themselves continue to grow at a healthy pace.After a wild year, Magnite (NASDAQ:MGNI), Redfin (NASDAQ:RDFN), and Crocs (NASDAQ:CROX) look way undervalued right now based on their future potential. Here's why these three mid-cap stocks are worth a closer look.Image source: Getty Images.1. Magnite: Steadily expanding with streaming TVMagnite stock hasn't been able to catch a break since quickly doubling in value in the first couple months of 2021. Share prices are down 77% from their all-time high posted nearly a year ago, valuing the software company at a mere $2.4 billion (as measured by enterprise value).In hindsight, Magnite was way overpriced 12 months ago. Over-optimism had set in, driven by the company's fast-growing platform, which helps video publishers sell advertising slots. Connected TV (CTV) is taking over the at-home entertainment space as a myriad of new streaming services pick up subscribers and traditional video moves to an internet-delivered format. Magnite is the largest independent CTV software company. Hundreds of publishers rely on it to automate the selling of ads and maximize value for their content.But a company that expects to grow sales at an average of 25% per year in each of the next five years didn't deserve to trade at a trailing 12-month sales multiple of over 20 (which is where Magnite was early in 2021). Now shares trade for a mere 4.5 times trailing 12-month sales, which seems incredibly cheap considering this is a highly profitable and growing business. Adjusted EBITDA profit margin was 35% in Q3 2021, and management expects it to be at over 40% in the coming years.Of course, the digital ad software space is highly competitive, and Magnite has a lot of debt due to a couple of acquisitions ($719 million as of the end of September 2021). But Magnite generates plenty of cash to service its debt, and is poised to continue expanding with the CTV industry in the coming years. Even management thinks its stock is a pretty good deal right now. It announced a $50 million share repurchase program in December. I like this CTV ad stock at these levels too.2. Redfin: A full-service tech-powered brokerage firmThe real estate brokerage business is a cyclical one, and Redfin's stock has been suffering on fears of a too-hot residential housing market. Supply of homes available for sale has been thin during the pandemic as Americans relocate en masse, and now with interest rates set to rise this year, there's another reason to worry. Redfin stock is down nearly 60% in the last year, giving it an enterprise value of $4.2 billion.Redfin won't be an appropriate stock for every investor. The company is spending heavily to maximize sales growth right now, and generated negative free cash flow of $429 million over the last 12-month stretch. But at just 2.2 times trailing 12-month sales, a substantial amount of negativity has been priced in at this point.After all, Redfin is still steadily winning market share (1.16% of U.S. existing home value in Q3 2021, compared to 1.04% the year prior). It's still expanding its services into new cities, acquired an online rental listing site last spring, and recently announced it's purchasing Bay Equity Home Loans to expand on its mortgage services. Redfin has a full-service technology stack to help home buyers and sellers, and it has lots of potential avenues for growth ahead -- regardless of where the real estate market goes next.Management had said to expect year-over-year revenue growth of as much as 148% in Q4 2021, a torrid pace that is unlikely to continue in the new year. Nevertheless, with shares depressed in value and Redfin still making progress in the residential real estate market, now looks like a pretty good time to nibble on this tech stock.3. Crocs: Comfort and utility for the winCrocs sales have been soaring during the pandemic, bucking the trend of overall declines elsewhere in the apparel and clothing department. In 2021 alone, the company stated it's expecting record full-year sales topping $2.3 billion, growth of 67% over 2020. In spite of this, share prices have dropped a third in value in recent months. Crocs has an enterprise value of $7.2 billion.Comfort and utility are in vogue as the pandemic reshapes consumer behavior. As a result of this and a push into new markets in Asia, Crocs thinks it will remain a fast-growing shoe company for years. Management's goal is to reach $5 billion in annual sales by 2026. 2022 is off to a good start working toward that milestone. Excluding the recent acquisition of small casual shoe brand Hey Dude, Crocs expects sales growth to exceed 20%, all while maintaining an adjusted operating profit margin of about 28%. That makes this quirky shoe business one of the most profitable in the industry.When Crocs announced it was acquiring Hey Dude last month for $2.5 billion, I was initially skeptical. However, it was revealed the small casual brand should bring in as much as $750 million in sales in 2022, with an adjusted operating margin of 26%. Plugged into Crocs' existing distribution channels, this could be a new growth lever for Crocs in the years ahead.Considering Crocs' 2022 outlook, shares currently trade for just 7 times adjusted operating income (assuming Crocs generates that 28% margin, and Hey Dude 26%). Of course, Crocs will need to prove it's the real deal and deliver the goods. But if it does, this looks like one overlooked cheap shoe stock right now.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"RDFN":1,"CROX":1,"MGNI":1,"CTV":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4518,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004414243,"gmtCreate":1642658824702,"gmtModify":1676533733126,"author":{"id":"4102050563512520","authorId":"4102050563512520","name":"Jennycute10","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/507cee5d2260759c49e3dd1dac8ecb9d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4102050563512520","authorIdStr":"4102050563512520"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"❤️💚😍","listText":"❤️💚😍","text":"❤️💚😍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004414243","repostId":"2204320050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2204320050","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":1642629300,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2204320050?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-20 05:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Wall Street Sell-Off Deepens, Nasdaq Confirms Correction","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2204320050","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Nasdaq now down 10.7% from Nov 19 record close* BofA, Morgan Stanley wrap up bank earnings on upbe","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>* Nasdaq now down 10.7% from Nov 19 record close</p><p>* BofA, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a> wrap up bank earnings on upbeat note</p><p>* Procter & Gamble gains after raising outlook</p><p>* Indexes down: Dow 0.96%, S&P 0.97%, Nasdaq 1.15%</p><p>Jan 19 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes ended sharply lower on Wednesday, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq confirming it was in a correction, after a diverse set of corporate earnings and as investors continued to worry about higher U.S. Treasury yields and the Federal Reserve tightening monetary policy.</p><p>The Nasdaq ended down 10.7% from its Nov. 19 closing record high, as stocks sold off into the market close.

The tech-heavy index also closed below its 200-day moving average, a key technical support level, for the first time since April 2020.</p><p>Goldman Sachs shares tumbled 7% after the investment bank missed quarterly profit expectations amid weak trading activity. The financials sector , which has been <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the better-performing groups in 2022, dropped 2.3%.</p><p>“The financials crumbling a little bit under the weight of less-than-impressive earnings quarters is probably the biggest factor today,” said Chuck Carlson, chief executive officer at Horizon Investment Services in Hammond, Indiana. “When you have taken out potentially one of the areas that actually was working here, that kind of casts a pall on the market.”</p><p>Benchmark U.S. Treasury yields jumped to two-year highs and two-year yields breached 1% as traders prepared for the Federal Reserve to be more aggressive in tackling unabated inflation.</p><p>The steep ascent in yields to start 2022 has weighed in particular on tech and growth stocks, whose future expected cash flows are discounted more sharply as yields rise.</p><p>“The hot inflation prints have spooked the market that the Fed is going to move and so we are seeing this rise in yields,” said Mona Mahajan, senior investment strategist at Edward Jones.</p><p>"It’s not only the rise in yields but the rapid rise in yields ... that really does cause some indigestion in the market, but particularly in growth, higher valuation, more speculative asset classes,” Mahajan said.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 543.34 points, or 1.51%, to 35,368.47, the S&P 500 lost 85.74 points, or 1.84%, to 4,577.11 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 386.86 points, or 2.6%, to 14,506.90.</p><p>Of 11 S&P 500 sectors, 10 ended lower, with technology falling the most. Energy , the top-percentage gainer so far in 2022, was the lone sector in positive territory, rising 0.4%.</p><p>Declines in megacap stocks, including Microsoft , Apple and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a> , weighed heavily on the S&P 500 among individual shares.</p><p>A BofA survey showed that fund managers had cut their overweight positions in tech to their lowest levels since 2008, while another survey by Deutsche Bank found that a majority of respondents believed U.S. technology stocks are in bubble territory.</p><p>Investors are zeroing in on next week's Fed policy meeting for more clarity on central bankers' next moves to rein in inflation.

With over 700 comments and a significant amount of (negative) feedback, I believe it is appropriate to share my thoughts on some of the most important questions I have received in this article. In terms of disclosure, I do not have a short position in Palantir and do not intend to open one. I simply believe that the company's stock is difficult, if not impossible, to justify based on the company's financials.</p><p><b>My $5 Price Target For Palantir</b></p><p>In my previous article, "Palantir: Fair Value Of $5," I claimed that the big-data company was fundamentally and unjustifiably overvalued. My reasoning was that a company that has been in business for as long as Palantir should have much better financials in place that look significantly better than what we see in the 10Q quarterly reports.</p><p>My main concern was Palantir's valuation, which requires buyers to pay a sales multiple of twenty. A P/E ratio of 20 would be considered high in normal and more sober times. Even allowing for Palantir's annual growth rate of 30%+, paying 20 times (expected) sales is still a bit of a stretch and requires a lot of faith that the sales growth will actually materialize. Even if it does, Palantir's valuation appears indefensible.</p><p>I'd like to take this opportunity to address some of the feedback I received regarding the four areas where I received the most questions (valuation, company losses, moat and scalability).</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>Many readers strongly disagreed with my assessment. The most common question I received centered on the idea that Palantir achieves significant revenue growth and that, as a result of this rapid growth, Palantir deserves a market capitalization of at least $10 billion.</p><p>This argument ignores the fact that, for valuation purposes, the size of the revenue base is just as important as the rate of sales growth. I also don't deny that Palantir's revenue is rapidly increasing. According to the company's long-term sales forecast, the company is aiming for a 30% annual growth rate. Palantir's outlook was confirmed in the company's most recent quarterly earnings report, and the company expects 40% growth this year.</p><p>Palantir is rapidly expanding, but the revenue base must be considered alongside the sales growth rate for any sense to be made. If I run a business with $1 million in annual sales and double my sales every year, that doesn't mean the company "should be worth $10 billion." This conclusion cannot be reached without taking into account the dollar revenue base. While Palantir's revenue growth rate of 30% should not be overlooked, it is not 100%.</p><p>Palantir has a market capitalization of $34 billion, and the market expects revenue of $1.53 billion in 2021 and $1.99 billion in 2022. Here, the implied sales multiples are 22 (2021e) and 17 (2022e). Palantir's growth multiples are excessive and are at risk of further contraction. Paying around 20 times sales for a business, even if it is perfect, is more than a stretch; it may be a suicide mission.</p><p><b>IPO And Losses</b></p><p>In response to my previous article, I received a lot of feedback along the lines of "Palantir is investing money, and this money will come back later in terms of free cash flow," or "Palantir just had its IPO, and profits are not expected."</p><p>Both arguments, in my opinion, are flawed.</p><p>Palantir is not a young company that recently went public and is looking for capital to invest. Palantir has been in business since 2003 and has yet to make a profit. In fact, company insiders have taken advantage of the market's opportunity this year to sell a large number of Class A shares in 2021.This article, which is a must-read for any Palantir investor, delves deeper into the insider sales situation that has emerged this year.</p><p>In other words, insiders with equity stakes are cashing out by dumping shares on unsuspecting retail investors willing to pay 20 times sales for a loss-making company. That story has been told to me several times in my life.</p><p>Palantir is not only losing money this year, as I explained in my previous article. Throughout its existence, the big-data company has suffered losses and accumulated losses at an alarming rate. Palantir's losses in 2021 are "only" $364 million. The loss may be much lower than last year by the end of September, but it is still a loss.</p><p>And, in business valuation, profits/losses should be just as important as sales forecast, which, in most cases, is positive. The point that I believe was overlooked in my previous Palantir article is that the company has $5.3 billion in accumulated losses. Accounting rules require an accumulated deficit to appear on a company's balance sheet and is deducted from stockholders' equity. It displays the total of a company's losses accumulated during its active period of operation. Palantir's accumulated deficits total $5.3 billion, compared to $7.6 billion in total paid-in capital. In layman's terms, Palantir has depleted 70% of its investor capital. That's a frightening figure.</p><p>Concerning the statement "Palantir is investing in its growth and will recoup its investment later": Palantir has been stuck in this phase for nearly two decades, and the company is still not profitable. Shouldn't some of the money invested 10 or more years ago have already returned?</p><p>The magnitude of the company's accumulated deficit, as well as the incredibly long period of time, two decades, during which losses have accumulated, raise serious concerns about Palantir's capital allocation. How much credit would you or I qualify for if we went to a bank with a 20-year history of making business losses?</p><p><b>Moat</b></p><p>Questions have been raised about why I believe Palantir lacks a significant moat in its business, despite the fact that the company's clients include numerous government agencies. The implication here appears to be that Palantir's relationship network serves as a moat.</p><p>Palantir works with a number of cash-rich government agencies that use the company's technology platforms across the board. I don't deny that Palantir's platforms, or "foundries," as the company refers to them, perform critical data management and analytics functions. Palantir was recently awarded contracts worth millions of dollars by the United States Army and the Space Systems Command. The Army contract is worth more than $800 million, while the Space Systems Command contract is worth $43 million.</p><p>That being said, I do not deny that Palantir has been successful in obtaining contract awards. What I mean is that Palantir must go through competitive processes in order to win bids. Contracts are not awarded based on Palantir's "relationships" with the government. To be honest, this would be illegal. As a result, the notion that the company's relationships aid Palantir in the construction of a moat is false.</p><p><b>Scalability</b></p><p>Some of the comments I received focused on Palantir's ability to capitalize on the big data revolution, as well as Palantir's scalability.</p><p>But where is this scalability, which is frequently mentioned as a reason to buy the stock?</p><p>Palantir has stated that it requires personnel to walk customers through the functionality of its foundries. Software that necessitates customer pilots is both time consuming and costly in terms of human resources. That is the inverse of "scale."<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64df144337f177af7f37125517af8d56\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"143\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>The ability to have decreasing marginal costs is a key feature of scalability. With a large enough customer base, marginal costs can be reduced to zero. This is not the case for Palantir, which must be available to clients to teach them the intricacies of the deployed platforms or walk them through new functionalities. Palantir, in my opinion, is more akin to an IT consulting firm that also sells software products. But I don't see real scalability with Palantir.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Palantir is not a profitable company. Palantir is heavily diluted. Insiders at Palantir are selling. Even with 30% annual revenue growth, Palantir's stock remains wildly overpriced.</p><p>High-multiple stocks, particularly in the technology sector, have recently begun to consolidate, and more downside is on the way as investors become less willing to pay top dollar for businesses that have flown high but failed to meet high expectations.</p><p>Palantir's valuation is a huge issue, and despite the fact that the big-data company operates in a sexy industry with a lot of hype, the business fundamentals simply do not justify Palantir's market price.</p><p><b>My Conclusion</b></p><p>I'm not saying Palantir doesn't have significant annual sales growth. I'm not saying Palantir's products are useless to the government. What I am saying is that Palantir's loss-making business does not merit a sales multiple of 20. Even if it was profitable, it wouldn't deserve this kind of sales multiple.</p><p>That's why I'm sticking to my $5 price target for Palantir. A $5 price target implies a $10 billion market valuation and a sales multiple of 5, which is still more than generous. Due to the persistence of business losses, an earnings multiple is unfortunately inapplicable here.

With over 700 comments and a significant amount of (negative) feedback, I believe it is appropriate to share my thoughts on some of the most important questions I have received in this article. In terms of disclosure, I do not have a short position in Palantir and do not intend to open one. I simply believe that the company's stock is difficult, if not impossible, to justify based on the company's financials.My $5 Price Target For PalantirIn my previous article, \"Palantir: Fair Value Of $5,\" I claimed that the big-data company was fundamentally and unjustifiably overvalued. My reasoning was that a company that has been in business for as long as Palantir should have much better financials in place that look significantly better than what we see in the 10Q quarterly reports.My main concern was Palantir's valuation, which requires buyers to pay a sales multiple of twenty. A P/E ratio of 20 would be considered high in normal and more sober times. Even allowing for Palantir's annual growth rate of 30%+, paying 20 times (expected) sales is still a bit of a stretch and requires a lot of faith that the sales growth will actually materialize. Even if it does, Palantir's valuation appears indefensible.I'd like to take this opportunity to address some of the feedback I received regarding the four areas where I received the most questions (valuation, company losses, moat and scalability).ValuationMany readers strongly disagreed with my assessment. The most common question I received centered on the idea that Palantir achieves significant revenue growth and that, as a result of this rapid growth, Palantir deserves a market capitalization of at least $10 billion.This argument ignores the fact that, for valuation purposes, the size of the revenue base is just as important as the rate of sales growth. I also don't deny that Palantir's revenue is rapidly increasing. According to the company's long-term sales forecast, the company is aiming for a 30% annual growth rate. Palantir's outlook was confirmed in the company's most recent quarterly earnings report, and the company expects 40% growth this year.Palantir is rapidly expanding, but the revenue base must be considered alongside the sales growth rate for any sense to be made. If I run a business with $1 million in annual sales and double my sales every year, that doesn't mean the company \"should be worth $10 billion.\" This conclusion cannot be reached without taking into account the dollar revenue base. While Palantir's revenue growth rate of 30% should not be overlooked, it is not 100%.Palantir has a market capitalization of $34 billion, and the market expects revenue of $1.53 billion in 2021 and $1.99 billion in 2022. Here, the implied sales multiples are 22 (2021e) and 17 (2022e). Palantir's growth multiples are excessive and are at risk of further contraction. Paying around 20 times sales for a business, even if it is perfect, is more than a stretch; it may be a suicide mission.IPO And LossesIn response to my previous article, I received a lot of feedback along the lines of \"Palantir is investing money, and this money will come back later in terms of free cash flow,\" or \"Palantir just had its IPO, and profits are not expected.\"Both arguments, in my opinion, are flawed.Palantir is not a young company that recently went public and is looking for capital to invest. Palantir has been in business since 2003 and has yet to make a profit. In fact, company insiders have taken advantage of the market's opportunity this year to sell a large number of Class A shares in 2021.This article, which is a must-read for any Palantir investor, delves deeper into the insider sales situation that has emerged this year.In other words, insiders with equity stakes are cashing out by dumping shares on unsuspecting retail investors willing to pay 20 times sales for a loss-making company. That story has been told to me several times in my life.Palantir is not only losing money this year, as I explained in my previous article. Throughout its existence, the big-data company has suffered losses and accumulated losses at an alarming rate. Palantir's losses in 2021 are \"only\" $364 million. The loss may be much lower than last year by the end of September, but it is still a loss.And, in business valuation, profits/losses should be just as important as sales forecast, which, in most cases, is positive. The point that I believe was overlooked in my previous Palantir article is that the company has $5.3 billion in accumulated losses. Accounting rules require an accumulated deficit to appear on a company's balance sheet and is deducted from stockholders' equity. It displays the total of a company's losses accumulated during its active period of operation. Palantir's accumulated deficits total $5.3 billion, compared to $7.6 billion in total paid-in capital. In layman's terms, Palantir has depleted 70% of its investor capital. That's a frightening figure.Concerning the statement \"Palantir is investing in its growth and will recoup its investment later\": Palantir has been stuck in this phase for nearly two decades, and the company is still not profitable. Shouldn't some of the money invested 10 or more years ago have already returned?The magnitude of the company's accumulated deficit, as well as the incredibly long period of time, two decades, during which losses have accumulated, raise serious concerns about Palantir's capital allocation. How much credit would you or I qualify for if we went to a bank with a 20-year history of making business losses?MoatQuestions have been raised about why I believe Palantir lacks a significant moat in its business, despite the fact that the company's clients include numerous government agencies. The implication here appears to be that Palantir's relationship network serves as a moat.Palantir works with a number of cash-rich government agencies that use the company's technology platforms across the board. I don't deny that Palantir's platforms, or \"foundries,\" as the company refers to them, perform critical data management and analytics functions. Palantir was recently awarded contracts worth millions of dollars by the United States Army and the Space Systems Command. The Army contract is worth more than $800 million, while the Space Systems Command contract is worth $43 million.That being said, I do not deny that Palantir has been successful in obtaining contract awards. What I mean is that Palantir must go through competitive processes in order to win bids. Contracts are not awarded based on Palantir's \"relationships\" with the government. To be honest, this would be illegal. As a result, the notion that the company's relationships aid Palantir in the construction of a moat is false.ScalabilitySome of the comments I received focused on Palantir's ability to capitalize on the big data revolution, as well as Palantir's scalability.But where is this scalability, which is frequently mentioned as a reason to buy the stock?Palantir has stated that it requires personnel to walk customers through the functionality of its foundries. Software that necessitates customer pilots is both time consuming and costly in terms of human resources. That is the inverse of \"scale.\"The ability to have decreasing marginal costs is a key feature of scalability. With a large enough customer base, marginal costs can be reduced to zero. This is not the case for Palantir, which must be available to clients to teach them the intricacies of the deployed platforms or walk them through new functionalities. Palantir, in my opinion, is more akin to an IT consulting firm that also sells software products. But I don't see real scalability with Palantir.RisksPalantir is not a profitable company. Palantir is heavily diluted. Insiders at Palantir are selling. Even with 30% annual revenue growth, Palantir's stock remains wildly overpriced.High-multiple stocks, particularly in the technology sector, have recently begun to consolidate, and more downside is on the way as investors become less willing to pay top dollar for businesses that have flown high but failed to meet high expectations.Palantir's valuation is a huge issue, and despite the fact that the big-data company operates in a sexy industry with a lot of hype, the business fundamentals simply do not justify Palantir's market price.My ConclusionI'm not saying Palantir doesn't have significant annual sales growth. I'm not saying Palantir's products are useless to the government. What I am saying is that Palantir's loss-making business does not merit a sales multiple of 20. Even if it was profitable, it wouldn't deserve this kind of sales multiple.That's why I'm sticking to my $5 price target for Palantir. A $5 price target implies a $10 billion market valuation and a sales multiple of 5, which is still more than generous. Due to the persistence of business losses, an earnings multiple is unfortunately inapplicable here. I believe that the majority of the feedback was well-intentioned, but the bull case still has some serious flaws.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"PLTR":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3692,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
