to hold on to these players for the long term.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>As you know, the stock market is a difficult place these days. The <b>Dow Jones Industrial Average</b> slipped into a bear market after falling at least 20% from its most recent high. That means many of the stocks that are part of the index are also suffering.</p><p>Now, let&#39;s move on to the good news. Many of today&#39;s decliners are very solid companies that are extremely likely to not only rebound, but also to lift your portfolio over the long term. So you&#39;ll want to consider buying more of these players -- and at bargain prices -- in October. Let&#39;s take a look at three with major brand strength.</p><h2>1. Disney</h2><p><b>Walt Disney</b> has fallen about 37% this year. That leaves it trading at about 18 times forward earnings estimates. It traded for more than 40 at the start of the year. This looks inexpensive if you just look at these numbers. But if you think about the strength of the Disney brand, it looks even cheaper.</p><p>Disney operates the world&#39;s most-visited theme parks. And these parks are huge contributors to revenue. The parks, experiences, and products unit brought in $7.3 billion in the fiscal third quarter, ended July 2. That&#39;s up 70% year over year. And this represents about a third of Disney&#39;s total $21.5 billion in revenue for the quarter.</p><p>Disney said during the earnings call that attendance at domestic parks on many days has surpassed pre-pandemic levels. And advance bookings at Disney hotels indicate demand will continue to remain strong.</p><p>Disney also owns streaming services -- Disney+ and Hulu -- and generates revenue through cable channels and content licensing. Disney&#39;s streaming services stand out as a key revenue driver. They now have more than 221 million total subscriptions. And Disney expects Disney+ to reach profitability by fiscal 2024.</p><p>So, there are plenty of catalysts to drive Disney share gains over time.</p><h2>2. Procter &amp; Gamble</h2><p><b>Procter &amp; Gamble</b> is another company with brand strength. P&amp;G is the maker of many brands you&#39;re probably very familiar with, such as Bounty paper towels and Tide laundry detergent.</p><p>Brand strength has led to a track record of revenue and profit gains over time. The company also has maintained a steady level of return on invested capital.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/29b321e1d900b8deb13f6ddc706492c6\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"494\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>PG Revenue (Annual) data by YCharts</span></p><p>P&amp;G has the advantage of selling items people can&#39;t avoid buying -- even if times are tough. And often, shoppers see the value of buying a better-quality product so they will stick with a top P&amp;G brand. For instance, you might only need one Bounty paper towel to pick up a spill versus several of a lower-priced brand.</p><p>P&amp;G faces the challenge of rising inflation. Higher inflation lifts the costs of raw materials and transporting goods. The impact of that could be reflected in earnings in the coming weeks or months. But this is a short-term problem. It doesn&#39;t change the overall demand for P&amp;G&#39;s products or earnings potential farther down the road.</p><p>It&#39;s also important to note that P&amp;G is a Dividend King. That means it&#39;s lifted its dividend for at least the past 50 years. So, you can count on this consumer goods giant for earnings growth -- and passive income -- over the long term.</p><h2>3. Nike</h2><p><b>Nike</b> has slipped when it comes to stock performance and earnings in recent times. The shares are down 46% so far this year. And Nike disappointed investors last week when it reported higher inventory levels and a lower gross margin.</p><p>But I see this as an opportunity to buy shares of a market leader with a brand that keeps fans coming back. Nike continues to be a favorite brand in the major markets of North America and China. And demand for its products keeps getting stronger.</p><p>For example, Nike&#39;s 2022 fiscal year (ended May 31) was the strongest ever for the Jordan brand. The brand has reached $5 billion in revenue -- and that&#39;s about 20 years after the retirement of basketball legend Michael Jordan. It&#39;s clear this brand has plenty of growth potential ahead.</p><p>Nike&#39;s progress in the booming area of e-commerce is also a big plus. The company&#39;s digital business has almost tripled revenue since 2019. That revenue level is now about $10 billion and makes up 24% of total Nike brand revenue. And excluding the impact of currency exchanges, Nike&#39;s overall sales rose 10% in the most recent quarter.</p><p>Nike&#39;s strategy to focus on digital and selling directly to customers clearly is working. These are elements that will contribute to earnings growth over time. And that&#39;s why buying more of the shares today -- while they&#39;re down -- is a great idea.</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>3 Dow Stocks to Buy More of in October</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 Dow Stocks to Buy More of in October\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-07 16:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/06/3-dow-stocks-to-buy-more-of-in-october/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>As you know, the stock market is a difficult place these days.

It doesn't change the overall demand for P&G's products or earnings potential farther down the road.It's also important to note that P&G is a Dividend King. That means it's lifted its dividend for at least the past 50 years. So, you can count on this consumer goods giant for earnings growth -- and passive income -- over the long term.3. NikeNike has slipped when it comes to stock performance and earnings in recent times. The shares are down 46% so far this year. And Nike disappointed investors last week when it reported higher inventory levels and a lower gross margin.But I see this as an opportunity to buy shares of a market leader with a brand that keeps fans coming back. Nike continues to be a favorite brand in the major markets of North America and China. And demand for its products keeps getting stronger.For example, Nike's 2022 fiscal year (ended May 31) was the strongest ever for the Jordan brand. The brand has reached $5 billion in revenue -- and that's about 20 years after the retirement of basketball legend Michael Jordan. It's clear this brand has plenty of growth potential ahead.Nike's progress in the booming area of e-commerce is also a big plus. The company's digital business has almost tripled revenue since 2019. That revenue level is now about $10 billion and makes up 24% of total Nike brand revenue. And excluding the impact of currency exchanges, Nike's overall sales rose 10% in the most recent quarter.Nike's strategy to focus on digital and selling directly to customers clearly is working. These are elements that will contribute to earnings growth over time. And that's why buying more of the shares today -- while they're down -- is a great idea.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":401,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9915691626,"gmtCreate":1665017939265,"gmtModify":1676537544584,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9915691626","repostId":"1185723829","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":913,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9912084869,"gmtCreate":1664706908851,"gmtModify":1676537496714,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9912084869","repostId":"1157459217","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1157459217","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1664676789,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1157459217?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-02 10:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba Stock: Attractive Valuation Despite Mid-Term Headwinds","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1157459217","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Over the mid term,Alibaba’s share price has had a habit of moving in step with earnings revisions but during the past 3 months, this relationship has weakened.During the period, Alibaba’s forecast for adj EPS in FY2024 has been cut by 4%, yet the share price has dropped by 34%.Moving forward, how can this be corrected?","content":"<div>\n<p>Over the mid term, Alibaba’s (BABA)share price has had a habit of moving in step with earnings revisions but during the past 3 months, this relationship has weakened.During the period, Alibaba’s ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.tipranks.com/news/article/alibaba-stock-attractive-valuation-despite-mid-term-headwinds\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606183248679","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

J.P. Morgan’sAlex Yao has an idea. The analyst believes “sentiment-driven fund flow is the current key share price driver and revenue recovery is the key determinant of market sentiment.”That is a bit of problem, then. Because Yao expects weak China consumption in the September quarter (F2Q23) to impact the revenue outlook.Since late August, Covid has once again been a disruptive force in a host of cities across China, and as such, Yao expects “limited improvement” in Alibaba’s core-core CMR (customer-management revenue) compared to the June quarter.The analyst sees the September quarter’s CMR falling by 4% from the same period last year, hardly any better than the June quarter’s 5% drop. On account of “low visibility of consumer sentiment improvement” or any relaxion of the Covid policies, the decline will continue in the December quarter, albeit at a slower pace (Yao expects a 2% year-over-year decline vs. anticipation of a positive turn previously).In contrast, given Alibaba’s firm commitment to cost-cutting and efficiency-improving measures, Yao sees “potential upside to consensus bottom-line projections.”However, that might not have enough of a positive effect right now. “Alibaba’s weakening revenue outlook in the near term could continue to weigh on the share price despite an unchanged, or even potentially better, profit outlook,” the analyst said, before summing up, “Nonetheless, we believe Alibaba’s share price is attractive on a 12-month view on 1) profit growth recovery to 20%+ in FY2024, 2) current consensus FY2024 PE of only 9x.”To this end, Yao rates BABA shares an Overweight (i.e., Buy) along with a $135 price target. This figure leaves room for 12-month share appreciation of ~69%. Yao’s rating stays an Overweight (i.e., Buy).Overall, Wall Street takes a bullish stance on Alibaba shares. 17 Buys and 1 Sell issued over the previous three months, making the stock a Strong Buy. Meanwhile, the $149.06 average price target suggests ~86% upside from current levels.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":549,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9918594165,"gmtCreate":1664412593957,"gmtModify":1676537449371,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9918594165","repostId":"1161726533","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":583,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9911403629,"gmtCreate":1664239463561,"gmtModify":1676537415616,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"K","listText":"K","text":"K","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9911403629","repostId":"1154262778","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154262778","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1664205477,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154262778?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-26 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"If Not The Bottom, Then What?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154262778","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryLeading central bank interest rates, set by to fight inflation, are attempting to peak in the","content":"<html><head></head><body><h3>Summary</h3><ul><li>Leading central bank interest rates, set by to fight inflation, are attempting to peak in the near future.</li><li>With sub-4% rates for US Treasuries, 10-year high-grade corporates at 4.6%, and medium-grades at 5.23%, the premium for government paper appears to be in place.

(My guess is that they won’t be successful at current levels until they switch from attempting to reduce demand to increasing supply, which is more difficult.) With sub-4% rates for US Treasuries, 10-year high-grade corporates at 4.6%, and medium-grades at 5.23%, the premium for government paper appears to be in place. However, it’s insufficient if demand curtailment works and drives up defaults.</p><p>The battle against industrial goods inflation may be close to won, with the year-over-year change in the JOC-ECRI industrial price at -9.69%, gasoline demand down almost -8%, and distillates down about -16%. (I think it is going to be more difficult to address inflation in services, which is mostly comprised of wages for talented people.) Furthermore, food prices are much more dependent on the global decline in land use and availability.</p><p>As usual, the high-quality fixed-income markets are more advanced than the equity markets.</p><p>Did Friday’s stock market decline signal a bottom? Possibly, but it did not completely fit historical patterns. While the Dow Jones Industrial Average established a new low for the year, the S&amp;P 500 was the third-lowest, and the Nasdaq the fifth-lowest. Considering the latter two indices had greater gains, the fall of the DJIA is less impressive. While there was an increase in transaction volume from a low base, it was not impressive. There are no signs of mass capitulation at public or institutional levels.</p><h3>Outlook</h3><p>There are four possible paths forward. In order of time, magnitude and pain, they are:</p><p>A bear market without a recession has happened a few times and is largely a price correction. We are closing in on that.</p><p>A cyclical recession is usually driven by commodity prices or other supply issues. This is satisfactorily addressed in a few years.</p><p>A structural recession due to systemic imbalances of power and leadership requires major changes, which drastically alter society. Depending on the level of violence, it can take many years.</p><p>Stagflation, where a portion of the society/economy sacrifices involuntarily to the other until there is a counter-revolutionary force. There is usually a period of mismanagement and legal turmoil. We have experienced two periods like this in the past beginning in the 1930s and 1970s.</p><p>Each alternative is possible. Prudent investors should make up their own minds as to what is probable for their beneficiaries and careers. (To be discussed later.)</p><p>Before choosing your expected future, there is a new threat and lesson which surfaced this week.</p><h3>London’s Future Lesson and Threat</h3><p>This week, the brand-new Prime Minister announced a very expensive plan of pump-priming and tax reduction for individuals. The reaction of the London investment market and currency was shock and fear. The former US Secretary of Treasury and former President of Harvard summed up the view of many on both sides of the Atlantic that these were “the worst possible policies”.</p><p>There are two lessons for the US from these policies which march down the same road as the current US administration.</p><p>The lesson for US and other investors is that the value of one’s currency shapes the willingness of foreigners to invest in the currency. The independent Bank of England, their central bank, raised interest rates by 100 basis points earlier in the week before this announcement. On Friday, there was a call for the BOE to immediately raise rates another 100 basis points.</p><p>This controversy is important for the US with its highly rated currency, which somewhat ironically had the second-biggest gain for the week, according to The Wall Street Journal. (The only currency that had a bigger gain was the Russian ruble, +4.54% vs.+2.57%.)</p><p>Investors, traders, and customers look at the currency behind the source of earnings in today’s currency markets. We are all familiar with the “Petrodollar”, which is based on the earnings derived from petroleum production and sale. To some degree, the tag of Petrodollar has also been placed on the currencies of Russia and Canada, among others, in addition to various Middle Eastern countries.</p><p>While it hasn’t been popularly done before, I believe we may now see a financial pound label placed on the British currency. A major part of its earnings come from its transaction markets and multinationals headquartered in the UK with export earnings, as well as contributions from my wife at her favorite shopping location.</p><p>We should watch what happens in the UK as an indication of a possible trend for the US.</p><h3>Investing Equity Reserves</h3><p>Last week’s blog suggested a tactical plan to reinvest reserves coming from equity investments, or from cash flows to be invested in equities.</p><p>Investors will be benefit from dollar-cost averaging, no matter which frequency is used. They will also benefit from the selection of one of the four alternative futures outlined above.</p><p>The most important long-term decision regarding the ultimate value of the account is to not get too comfortable with cash reserves while interest rates earn single-digit returns. This will be costly, as stock markets go up as rates come down, resulting in some principal loss. More important, time not invested in equities at low prices will be lost. For taxable investors, the difference in taxes on interest and gains can be meaningful, particularly in well-constructed estates.</p><p>In making choices where time horizon is appropriate for your investments, I expect the last two scenarios to be the most likely, based on today’s information. For example, Walmart (WMT) is not building inventory and staff for the holiday season. Their shoppers, for the most part, are modest-income, savvy buyers. If Walmart is not expecting a good holiday season for itself, one should question how quickly inflation will drop below 5%.</p><p>Typically, a well-known name disappears from the marketplace due to severe financial trouble. None has so far, but you might see a rescue merger or court action.</p><p>I have no inside information, but I am concerned that reported earnings and, more importantly, values are overstated for the current economy, making market valuations questionable. One such possible company is Credit Suisse (CS). The pundits are quoting it as selling for almost 20% of book value! I am sure this is not a singular situation.</p><p>Please share your views.</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>If Not The Bottom, Then What?</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\">\nIf Not The Bottom, Then What?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-26 23:17 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4543053-if-not-bottom-then-what><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryLeading central bank interest rates, set by to fight inflation, are attempting to peak in the near future.With sub-4% rates for US Treasuries, 10-year high-grade corporates at 4.6%, and medium-...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4543053-if-not-bottom-then-what\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".DJI":"道琼斯",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4543053-if-not-bottom-then-what","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1154262778","content_text":"SummaryLeading central bank interest rates, set by to fight inflation, are attempting to peak in the near future.With sub-4% rates for US Treasuries, 10-year high-grade corporates at 4.6%, and medium-grades at 5.23%, the premium for government paper appears to be in place.

Furthermore, food prices are much more dependent on the global decline in land use and availability.As usual, the high-quality fixed-income markets are more advanced than the equity markets.Did Friday’s stock market decline signal a bottom? Possibly, but it did not completely fit historical patterns. While the Dow Jones Industrial Average established a new low for the year, the S&P 500 was the third-lowest, and the Nasdaq the fifth-lowest. Considering the latter two indices had greater gains, the fall of the DJIA is less impressive. While there was an increase in transaction volume from a low base, it was not impressive. There are no signs of mass capitulation at public or institutional levels.OutlookThere are four possible paths forward. In order of time, magnitude and pain, they are:A bear market without a recession has happened a few times and is largely a price correction. We are closing in on that.A cyclical recession is usually driven by commodity prices or other supply issues. This is satisfactorily addressed in a few years.A structural recession due to systemic imbalances of power and leadership requires major changes, which drastically alter society. Depending on the level of violence, it can take many years.Stagflation, where a portion of the society/economy sacrifices involuntarily to the other until there is a counter-revolutionary force. There is usually a period of mismanagement and legal turmoil. We have experienced two periods like this in the past beginning in the 1930s and 1970s.Each alternative is possible. Prudent investors should make up their own minds as to what is probable for their beneficiaries and careers. (To be discussed later.)Before choosing your expected future, there is a new threat and lesson which surfaced this week.London’s Future Lesson and ThreatThis week, the brand-new Prime Minister announced a very expensive plan of pump-priming and tax reduction for individuals. The reaction of the London investment market and currency was shock and fear. The former US Secretary of Treasury and former President of Harvard summed up the view of many on both sides of the Atlantic that these were “the worst possible policies”.There are two lessons for the US from these policies which march down the same road as the current US administration.The lesson for US and other investors is that the value of one’s currency shapes the willingness of foreigners to invest in the currency. The independent Bank of England, their central bank, raised interest rates by 100 basis points earlier in the week before this announcement. On Friday, there was a call for the BOE to immediately raise rates another 100 basis points.This controversy is important for the US with its highly rated currency, which somewhat ironically had the second-biggest gain for the week, according to The Wall Street Journal. (The only currency that had a bigger gain was the Russian ruble, +4.54% vs.+2.57%.)Investors, traders, and customers look at the currency behind the source of earnings in today’s currency markets. We are all familiar with the “Petrodollar”, which is based on the earnings derived from petroleum production and sale. To some degree, the tag of Petrodollar has also been placed on the currencies of Russia and Canada, among others, in addition to various Middle Eastern countries.While it hasn’t been popularly done before, I believe we may now see a financial pound label placed on the British currency. A major part of its earnings come from its transaction markets and multinationals headquartered in the UK with export earnings, as well as contributions from my wife at her favorite shopping location.We should watch what happens in the UK as an indication of a possible trend for the US.Investing Equity ReservesLast week’s blog suggested a tactical plan to reinvest reserves coming from equity investments, or from cash flows to be invested in equities.Investors will be benefit from dollar-cost averaging, no matter which frequency is used. They will also benefit from the selection of one of the four alternative futures outlined above.The most important long-term decision regarding the ultimate value of the account is to not get too comfortable with cash reserves while interest rates earn single-digit returns. This will be costly, as stock markets go up as rates come down, resulting in some principal loss. More important, time not invested in equities at low prices will be lost. For taxable investors, the difference in taxes on interest and gains can be meaningful, particularly in well-constructed estates.In making choices where time horizon is appropriate for your investments, I expect the last two scenarios to be the most likely, based on today’s information. For example, Walmart (WMT) is not building inventory and staff for the holiday season. Their shoppers, for the most part, are modest-income, savvy buyers. If Walmart is not expecting a good holiday season for itself, one should question how quickly inflation will drop below 5%.Typically, a well-known name disappears from the marketplace due to severe financial trouble. None has so far, but you might see a rescue merger or court action.I have no inside information, but I am concerned that reported earnings and, more importantly, values are overstated for the current economy, making market valuations questionable. One such possible company is Credit Suisse (CS). The pundits are quoting it as selling for almost 20% of book value! I am sure this is not a singular situation.Please share your views.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":824,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9911090500,"gmtCreate":1664080762900,"gmtModify":1676537387998,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"K","listText":"K","text":"K","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9911090500","repostId":"2269490734","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2269490734","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1664066508,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2269490734?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-25 08:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"If You're Selling Stocks Because the Fed Is Hiking Interest Rates, You May Be Suffering From “Inflation Illusion”","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2269490734","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Forget everything you think you know about the relationship between interest rates and the stock market.Forget everything you think you know about the relationship between interest rates and the stock","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Forget everything you think you know about the relationship between interest rates and the stock market.</p><p>Forget everything you think you know about the relationship between interest rates and the stock market.

If true, the company&#39;s biggest segment could take a significant hit in its current quarter.</p><h2>Apple&#39;s bread and butter</h2><p>For the last decade, iPhone sales have made up at least 40% of Apple&#39;s revenue, with some quarters seeing the smartphones hit almost 70%. For instance, in the third and most recent quarter of 2022, Apple reported iPhone sales had made up 49% of its revenue. Meanwhile, the rest of its revenue went as follows: 8.7% to iPads, 8.8% to Macs, 9.7% to Wearables, Home and Accessories, and 23.6% to Services.</p><p>Like clockwork, Apple announces its newest lineup of iPhones almost every September, with sales remaining consistent throughout the year. However, Apple has made a significant push into services over the last few years. The introduction of apps such as its streaming service Apple TV+, Music, Fitness+, and iCloud has pushed consumers further into the company&#39;s ecosystem of products and boosted revenue.</p><p>In the fourth quarter of 2021, services made up 15.7% of the company&#39;s revenue versus 23.6% in Apple&#39;s latest quarter. The rise of services is positive as it can aid in safeguarding the company in the event of poor iPhone sales, which look to be a real possibility in Apple&#39;s latest lineup.</p><h2>A potential dip</h2><p>On Sept. 7, Apple unveiled its latest series of iPhones with the iPhone 14, Plus, Pro, and Pro Max. The lineup saw a return to the &#34;Plus&#34; model for the lower-tiered phones, which hadn&#39;t surfaced since the iPhone 8 Plus in 2017. Since then, the largest option has only been available in the Pro models under the label &#34;Pro Max.&#34;</p><p>While multiple media outlets have reported record-breaking sales for Apple&#39;s iPhone 14 Pro and Pro max, a recent report from Apple analyst Ming-Chu Kuo has shown poor sales for the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus. Kuo explained that the Pro models are currently showing delivery wait times of more than four weeks, which suggests good demand. However, the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have been available in retail stores from their launch dates, which &#34;reflects lackluster demand.&#34;</p><p>Weak pre-sales for the non-Pro models are concerning as they are usually the highest-selling iPhones in the yearly lineup. In 2019, the base model iPhone 11 was the top-selling version every week in the year&#39;s last quarter. Then, in the first half of 2020, the iPhone 11 sold 79% more units than the Pro Max version and 82% more than the smaller Pro model. As the lower-priced base models, the iPhone 14 and the bigger Plus version would normally be outselling the Pro versions, but that doesn&#39;t seem to be the case in 2022.</p><p>Kuo surmised that current sales indicate the iPhone 14 and Plus are selling worse than last year&#39;s iPhone 13 mini, which Apple cut production on in the first half of 2022 because of low demand. As a result, Apple could do the same to the iPhone 14 and Plus and slim down production as soon as November, according to Kuo.</p><p>In the latest iPhone 14 lineup, Apple worked to widen the gap between the base and the Pro models, offering far more new features and tweaks in design to the more expensive versions. However, the result meant incremental differences between last year&#39;s iPhone 13 and 2022&#39;s 14, and price hikes abroad have caused far worse iPhone sales than in previous years.</p><h2>Is Apple&#39;s stock a buy?</h2><p>According to Bloomberg, analysts expect Apple sales to rise 6% in its current quarter, down from 29% the previous year, which was primarily fueled by &#34;pandemic-bound consumers&#34; pumping up demand for technology. The company has bet on its Pro models this year, which have so far reached record numbers. However, the question is, will the higher-end versions sell enough to offset slower sales from the base model iPhone 14s?</p><p>Only time will tell, but regardless, Apple continues to be an excellent investment in the long term. While a potential dip is concerning, the company has proven itself as an innovative company worth investing in over time. The stock may be even more of a buy in the case of a dip as it is unlikely to be down for long, suggesting current investors would do well to hold until shares rise again.</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>Should You Really Buy Apple Stock?</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\">\nShould You Really Buy Apple Stock?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-23 10:37 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/22/should-you-really-buy-apple-stock/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe iPhone makes up the biggest portion of Apple's revenue.Its base models are usually the best-selling iPhones in the yearly lineup.However, this year it's the Pro models that are selling ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/22/should-you-really-buy-apple-stock/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/22/should-you-really-buy-apple-stock/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2269246541","content_text":"KEY POINTSThe iPhone makes up the biggest portion of Apple's revenue.Its base models are usually the best-selling iPhones in the yearly lineup.However, this year it's the Pro models that are selling like hotcakes.Apple is one of the most innovative companies to date.

The rise of services is positive as it can aid in safeguarding the company in the event of poor iPhone sales, which look to be a real possibility in Apple's latest lineup.A potential dipOn Sept. 7, Apple unveiled its latest series of iPhones with the iPhone 14, Plus, Pro, and Pro Max. The lineup saw a return to the \"Plus\" model for the lower-tiered phones, which hadn't surfaced since the iPhone 8 Plus in 2017. Since then, the largest option has only been available in the Pro models under the label \"Pro Max.\"While multiple media outlets have reported record-breaking sales for Apple's iPhone 14 Pro and Pro max, a recent report from Apple analyst Ming-Chu Kuo has shown poor sales for the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus. Kuo explained that the Pro models are currently showing delivery wait times of more than four weeks, which suggests good demand. However, the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have been available in retail stores from their launch dates, which \"reflects lackluster demand.\"Weak pre-sales for the non-Pro models are concerning as they are usually the highest-selling iPhones in the yearly lineup. In 2019, the base model iPhone 11 was the top-selling version every week in the year's last quarter. Then, in the first half of 2020, the iPhone 11 sold 79% more units than the Pro Max version and 82% more than the smaller Pro model. As the lower-priced base models, the iPhone 14 and the bigger Plus version would normally be outselling the Pro versions, but that doesn't seem to be the case in 2022.Kuo surmised that current sales indicate the iPhone 14 and Plus are selling worse than last year's iPhone 13 mini, which Apple cut production on in the first half of 2022 because of low demand. As a result, Apple could do the same to the iPhone 14 and Plus and slim down production as soon as November, according to Kuo.In the latest iPhone 14 lineup, Apple worked to widen the gap between the base and the Pro models, offering far more new features and tweaks in design to the more expensive versions. However, the result meant incremental differences between last year's iPhone 13 and 2022's 14, and price hikes abroad have caused far worse iPhone sales than in previous years.Is Apple's stock a buy?According to Bloomberg, analysts expect Apple sales to rise 6% in its current quarter, down from 29% the previous year, which was primarily fueled by \"pandemic-bound consumers\" pumping up demand for technology. The company has bet on its Pro models this year, which have so far reached record numbers. However, the question is, will the higher-end versions sell enough to offset slower sales from the base model iPhone 14s?Only time will tell, but regardless, Apple continues to be an excellent investment in the long term. While a potential dip is concerning, the company has proven itself as an innovative company worth investing in over time. The stock may be even more of a buy in the case of a dip as it is unlikely to be down for long, suggesting current investors would do well to hold until shares rise again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9910777298,"gmtCreate":1663698366614,"gmtModify":1676537317339,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I","listText":"I","text":"I","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9910777298","repostId":"1193461774","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193461774","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1663661566,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1193461774?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-20 16:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 High-Conviction Stocks to Buy in the Next Market Correction","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193461774","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Here are five stocks you can confidently buy and hold the next time the market crashes.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>KEY POINTS</h2><ul><li>These companies have strong market positions in their respective industries.</li><li>They continue to demonstrate healthy growth during tough times.</li><li>Their resilience allows them to get through short-term challenges to do well in the long run.</li></ul><p>It&#39;s useful to prepare a watchlist of stocks that you plan to accumulate.

Moreover, with its relatively strong results in the third quarter, it has the potential to continue expanding its top and bottom-line results.September has been a forgettable month for the stock market, but it turned out to be the opposite for Apple stock (NASDAQ:AAPL). The tech giant wrapped up its hotly anticipated Far Out event recently, where it unveiled the latest versions of the iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch, much to the delight of its loyal customer base. Moreover, despite the headwinds, its steady revenue expansion and EBITDA growth over the past year make it a solid bet over the long term. Hence, we are bullish on AAPL stock.Similar to previous versions of the iPhone, the newest iteration was able to capture the imaginations of its customer base yet again. Moreover, the biggest surprise was no hike in the price of the iPhone 14 in the U.S. The ability to retain its pricing suggests it’s struck an incredible balance between growth and profitability. The strategy is likely to boost sales immensely once it hits the markets.Furthermore, keeping its prices in check is doubly important now, considering the drop in discretionary spending. High prices will likely make customers fret over spending over $1,000 on an iPhone, but keeping its prices steady is an incredible achievement.Apple’s latest products will likely be a major catalyst for its business. Layer that up with its sticky Apple services, and you have a juggernaut that should steamroll its competition. Most analysts believe these new products will likely elevate its stock price soon. With the current pull-back in prices, it’s probably the right move to invest in AAPL stock.AAPL Stock Could Move Higher in the Near-TermDespite the economic challenges, AAPL stock was able to kick start a few short-lived rallies. Before the Far Out event, Apple stock was deep in the red, but the event’s success kickstarted a rally. Also, the upcoming quarter will be an important litmus test for the business, which could also boost AAPL stock to new heights.With rising inflation across the globe, most tech companies reported low sales numbers, and their stock prices took a massive beating. However, Apple’s third-quarter results were much better than expected, considering the circumstances. With the company’s amazing track record, it’s tough to count out its growth trajectory.Apple Had a Remarkable Third Quarter ShowingApple’s revenues came in at $83 billion for Q3, almost a 2% improvement from the prior-year period. Despite the economic downturn, Apple reported its net profit of $19.4 billion and earnings per share of $1.20, which came in $0.04 higher than analyst estimates. Moreover, it generated record sales in its Services segment. The resilient results during the quarter demonstrate the impact of Apple on its massive customer base.Moreover, the company could generate close to $40.7 billion while dealing with the threat of recession. It seems Apple has done well to manage the impact of inflation and grow its results at a steady pace. It has set itself up for bumper quarters ahead with the release of new products.Apple Expands Production Outside of ChinaApple has announced that it will expand its production outside China to diversify its supply chain and reduce its reliance on a single country. Consequently, Apple invested $1 billion in India, along with expanding into existing facilities in Vietnam and Brazil. The company is also working on setting up a new production line in the U.S.This represents a major shift for Apple, which has so far relied on China for most of its manufacturing. With the reduction in production-related bottlenecks, Apple can effectively manage its operational costs and boost its bottom-line results in the years to come. With the global supply chain challenges, its imperative for companies to have a diversified production base.Is Apple Stock a Buy or a Sell?Turning to Wall Street, AAPL stock maintains a Strong Buy consensus rating. Out of 28 total analyst ratings, 23 Buys, four Holds, and one Sell were assigned over the past three months. The average AAPL price target is $183.56, implying a 20.5% upside potential. Analyst price targets range from a low of $136 per share to a high of $220 per share.Takeaway: AAPL Stock is the Leader of Big TechApple is the crème de la crème as far as tech companies are concerned. It has a history of producing premium products, which continue to capture the imaginations of its customer base. The iPhone Series has been a cash cow for the company and is unlikely to change anytime soon. It has generated billions of dollars for the company, and every new version of the iPhone proves its naysayers wrong.Moreover, the company’s penchant for innovation and diversification remains its strong suit and is arguably the growth catalyst it needs to be successful in the long haul. Additionally, the company remains consistent in rewarding its shareholders.Considering its strong customer base, high demand, high returns, and massive free cash flow, it would not be surprising if AAPL stock performs exceedingly well over the long term. It has, time and again, proven its critics wrong by posting incredible results across all its core and non-core segments.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":141,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937846734,"gmtCreate":1663402835329,"gmtModify":1676537266383,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937846734","repostId":"1129633132","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129633132","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1663378125,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129633132?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-17 09:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nvidia: Ethereum Merge Unleashes A Tsunami Of Used Graphics Cards","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129633132","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryEthereum completes its transition to proof-of-stake, ending lucrative and energy-consuming “m","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Ethereum completes its transition to proof-of-stake, ending lucrative and energy-consuming “mining”.</li><li>Correcting the Ethereum hash rate model to account for used graphics card sales accounts for Nvidia’s fiscal Q2 results.</li><li>The impact of the Merge on Nvidia’s sales will be, at best, ugly.</li><li>How will the Merge affect Nvidia’s expected RTX 40 series launch?</li><li>Investor takeaways: Will Nvidia need to restate guidance for this quarter?</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f531f7b392a181968ec72c4a8f89f8e\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"613\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>vzphotos/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p><p>The Ethereum Foundation, which manages the Ether cryptocurrency, has announced completion of what it calls the Merge, whereby validation of new blocks of transactions no longer takes place by &#34;mining&#34;. The millions of high-end graphics cards that are used for this will no longer beneeded for the new &#34;proof-of-stake&#34; approach, so that most of these will likely find their way into the used card market. This will depress demand for new graphics cards just when Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is set to announce its next-generation GeForce 40 series.</p><p><b>Ethereum completes its transition to proof-of-stake, ending lucrative and energy consuming &#34;mining&#34;</b></p><p>The transition of Ethereum to proof-of-stake was called the Merge because it involved combining the parallel block chain that was already using proof-of-stake experimentally with the main block chain that was using traditional mining, called proof-of-work. This is shown below in this diagram from the Ethereum Foundation:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4872c823bfeb3e06182d2d3f6ab87879\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"574\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Ethereum.org</span></p><p>Mining was really just transaction processing, in which a number of Ethereum transactions would be bundled into a block and encrypted. But the encryption process was made artificially difficult, requiring millions of high end graphics cards in the mining pool to process a block in a reasonable period of time.</p><p>In the new proof-of-stake approach, the artificial difficulty is removed, so that hardware requirements can be met by almost any computer, ending the need for graphics card processing and the attendant energy consumption. Ethereum claims this will reduce energy consumption by 99.95%.</p><p>Some miners may go to work on a &#34;hard fork&#34; of Ethereum, in effect, a secession of the currency into a new one called EthereumPOW. This currency will continue to use proof-of-work, but it&#39;s unclear whether mining this will be profitable.</p><p>Probably, the vast majority of cards will go on the used card market and be sold on venues such as eBay.</p><p><b>Correcting the Ethereum hash rate model to account for used graphics card sales</b></p><p>Following Nvidia&#39;s revised guidance for its fiscal 2023 Q2, I realized that I needed to revise my model of Ethereum-related sales of graphics cards. I had published an article detailing the model in July.</p><p>The problem with the model was that it only accounted for sales into the Ethereum mining pool when the pool was adding capacity, i.e., adding new cards to the pool. It worked fine as long as the pool was still growing.</p><p>However, starting in mid-May, the Ethereum mining pool hash rate, a measure of mining capacity, started to decline, as shown in the following chart from BitInfoCharts:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fe36f2d53f47c0d7e5cdf964d09c67fa\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"408\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>BinInfoCharts</span></p><p>This implied that a substantial number of graphics cards were being removed from the pool. If I assumed that these cards were comparable to current generation Nvidia and AMD (AMD) cards, then it was reasonable to assume that every used card sold was a lost new card sale.</p><p>This turned out to account very well for Nvidia&#39;s fiscal Q2 results, if we assume that a normal quarterly revenue in Nvidia&#39;s Gaming segment is about $2.5 billion. During the Fiscal Q2 conference call, Nvidia specifically claimed that this would be their normal average Gaming segment revenue without crypto. In my spreadsheet calculations, it was easy to calculate the used card effect simply by allowing the change in mining pool cards to go negative, with a negative net revenue for the cards:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8223bcd7d3f44c30f5c60970c616fe0f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Mark Hibben</span></p><p>Note that the revenue impact doesn&#39;t only fall on Nvidia, but the timing of Nvidia&#39;s fiscal Q2 lined up better with the fall in Ethereum mining capacity and likely release of cards into the used card market. AMD will likely feel the impact in its Q3 results.</p><p><b>The impact of the Merge on Nvidia&#39;s sales will be, at best, ugly</b></p><p>The model provides a means of anticipating what happens when the Ethereum hash rate effectively goes to zero, post Merge. And it&#39;s not pretty. In an article on August 21, I gave my subscribers a heads-up concerning the impact of the Merge, and I further revised my model results on September 11.</p><p>If we assume that the entire mining pool consists of newer graphics cards released since September 2020 (RTX 30 series for Nvidia), then Nvidia&#39;s RTX 30 series sales for Q3 are completely wiped out, as shown in the spreadsheet calculations extended to Q3:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c00465fed542c67659f55786fcdf366b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Mark Hibben</span></p><p>The model deducts the hash rate contribution due to Nvidia Crypto Mining Processors (CMP). These cannot be sold into the used graphics cards market, since they lack display outputs.</p><p>This amounts to assuming that all of the cards used in mining before September 2020 (about when the RTX 30 series launched) were replaced with newer cards. This probably isn&#39;t absolutely correct, and the mining pool has consisted of a mixture of older and newer cards.</p><p>As a lower bound, we can assume that none of the older cards were replaced. These cards would not impact new card sales, since they aren&#39;t comparable to current generation cards. The model can deduct these cards from the calculated revenue impact by simply deducting the pre-September 2020 hash rate of 228.2361 terahash/sec (THASH) for the mining pool:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ac0a909d1edae7870adea14e3f987d28\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"351\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Mark Hibben</span></p><p>So the lost revenue impact for Nvidia looks to be in the range of $2-3 billion, and it probably won&#39;t fall all in Q3 but be distributed over several quarters. The effect of the Merge is to effectively zero out Nvidia&#39;s crypto revenue over time. The revenue made during Ethereum&#39;s mining pool expansion is negated by lost revenue post Merge, with the exception of CMP revenue and revenue from older graphics cards that might still have been in the pool at the time of the Merge.</p><p><b>How will the Merge affect Nvidia&#39;s expected RTX 40 series launch?</b></p><p>Nvidia has been expected to announce its GeForce RTX 40 series cards for some time, and Nvidia posted this announcement on its website:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c5990337b62c49447e21da39a199e14\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"400\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Nvidia</span></p><p>Various tech pundits are claiming that this is the worst time for Nvidia to launch a new generation of gaming graphics cards. One important feature expected of the RTX 40 series is support for PCIE 5.0. This could be important in reducing the impact of the Ethereum Merge.</p><p>The current generation of Nvidia and AMD cards only support PCIE 4.0, the prevailing standard at the time of their introduction in late 2020. PCIE 5.0 will double the communication bandwidth compared to 4.0. It&#39;s not clear how critical that will be to gaming performance, but it should eliminate PCIE as a bottleneck, if it ever was.</p><p>Just as important, new generation CPUs will have to support PCIE 5.0, since the GPU is typically linked directly to the CPU through a built in PCIE 16 lane (x16) interface. This is the preferred architecture for maximum gaming performance, and all modern CPUs provide at least 16 lanes of PCIE for this purpose.</p><p>Intel (INTC) already supports PCIE 5.0 in its latest Alder Lake 12th generation Core series of desktop CPUs. Since Alder Lake launched early this year, there have been no PCIE 5.0 graphics cards to take advantage of the interface, but the current installed base of Alder Lake systems represents a waiting market for the new PCIE 5.0 cards.</p><p>Unfortunately, I don&#39;t have an estimate of Alder Lake sales, so I have no idea what the size of that market might be. Current generation AMD Ryzen 5000 series desktop CPUs only offer PCIE 4.0, but the Ryzen 7000 series has been announced with support for PCIE 5.0, with a launch expected in October. AMD&#39;s next-generation GPUs have only been &#34;teased&#34; but are expected to support PCIE 5.0 as well.</p><p>The performance desktop market (mostly gamers) is moving rapidly to PCIE 5.0, and Nvidia will have, at least for a few months, the only graphics cards that support it. Gamers tend to be early adopters and favor the highest performance technology.</p><p>Since<i>none</i>of the used cards released from the Merge will support PCIE 5.0, this may serve to somewhat isolate the RTX 40 series launch from the impact of the Merge. How much isolation is still unclear.</p><p>Most of the current population of gaming systems will only support PCIE 4.0, so this part of the market would probably not buy RTX 40 series in any case. Most 40 series sales will go into new system builds.</p><p>Certainly, the impact of the Merge will be to weaken sales of the RTX 40 series at launch. However, overall sales in the Gaming segment will probably benefit from the launch. The 40 series launch will give the segment a revenue stream it would not have had otherwise.</p><p><b>Investor takeaways: will Nvidia need to restate guidance for this quarter?</b></p><p>Nvidia guided to revenue of $5.9 billion for fiscal Q3 during the Q2 conference call, and this implies revenue in the gaming segment of about $1 billion. Did Nvidia account for the Merge in their guidance?</p><p>When asked specifically about the impact of the Merge, Nvidia management had no comment, and professed an inability to account for the crypto impact. The guidance was claimed to be due to a retail channel inventory glut.</p><p>If Nvidia really wasn&#39;t accounting for the Merge, then almost certainly it will need to restate guidance for Q3. Probably, the RTX 40 series launch will not be enough to provide the roughly $1 billion in Gaming segment revenue.</p><p>In my Nvidia integrated financial model, I&#39;m assuming a $3 billion hit due to the Merge and another $1 billion due to inventory correction. In the model, this is distributed over the next four quarters from fiscal 2023 Q3 to fiscal 2024 Q2, with Gaming segment sales only starting to recover in fiscal 2024 Q3.</p><p>Despite this, I&#39;m still modeling growth in the all-important Data Center segment. Nvidia&#39;s next-generation data center accelerator, the Hopper H100, is testing out to be very impressive and is in production now with deliveries expected by the end of the calendar year.</p><p>Hopper should ensure continued growth in the Data Center segment, and the advent of Grace, Nvidia&#39;s ARM architecture CPU for the data center, should further enhance growth. Data Center growth largely compensates for revenue declines expected in Gaming for this year and next, according to the model:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8026f845d3af92219bdc2bb1bc67be19\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"458\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Mark Hibben</span></p><p>According to my long-term Discounted Cash Flow model, Nvidia has a fair value of $192. I consider Nvidia&#39;s future to be very bright, despite the impact of crypto in the near term.</p><p>Currently, I have Nvidia rated at Hold, and Nvidia has been a relatively small part of the Rethink Technology portfolio since selling most of my Nvidia shares (at a substantial profit) in April.

The millions of high-end graphics cards that are used for this will no longer beneeded for the new \"proof-of-stake\" approach, so that most of these will likely find their way into the used card market. This will depress demand for new graphics cards just when Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is set to announce its next-generation GeForce 40 series.Ethereum completes its transition to proof-of-stake, ending lucrative and energy consuming \"mining\"The transition of Ethereum to proof-of-stake was called the Merge because it involved combining the parallel block chain that was already using proof-of-stake experimentally with the main block chain that was using traditional mining, called proof-of-work. This is shown below in this diagram from the Ethereum Foundation:Ethereum.orgMining was really just transaction processing, in which a number of Ethereum transactions would be bundled into a block and encrypted. But the encryption process was made artificially difficult, requiring millions of high end graphics cards in the mining pool to process a block in a reasonable period of time.In the new proof-of-stake approach, the artificial difficulty is removed, so that hardware requirements can be met by almost any computer, ending the need for graphics card processing and the attendant energy consumption. Ethereum claims this will reduce energy consumption by 99.95%.Some miners may go to work on a \"hard fork\" of Ethereum, in effect, a secession of the currency into a new one called EthereumPOW. This currency will continue to use proof-of-work, but it's unclear whether mining this will be profitable.Probably, the vast majority of cards will go on the used card market and be sold on venues such as eBay.Correcting the Ethereum hash rate model to account for used graphics card salesFollowing Nvidia's revised guidance for its fiscal 2023 Q2, I realized that I needed to revise my model of Ethereum-related sales of graphics cards. I had published an article detailing the model in July.The problem with the model was that it only accounted for sales into the Ethereum mining pool when the pool was adding capacity, i.e., adding new cards to the pool. It worked fine as long as the pool was still growing.However, starting in mid-May, the Ethereum mining pool hash rate, a measure of mining capacity, started to decline, as shown in the following chart from BitInfoCharts:BinInfoChartsThis implied that a substantial number of graphics cards were being removed from the pool. If I assumed that these cards were comparable to current generation Nvidia and AMD (AMD) cards, then it was reasonable to assume that every used card sold was a lost new card sale.This turned out to account very well for Nvidia's fiscal Q2 results, if we assume that a normal quarterly revenue in Nvidia's Gaming segment is about $2.5 billion. During the Fiscal Q2 conference call, Nvidia specifically claimed that this would be their normal average Gaming segment revenue without crypto. In my spreadsheet calculations, it was easy to calculate the used card effect simply by allowing the change in mining pool cards to go negative, with a negative net revenue for the cards:Mark HibbenNote that the revenue impact doesn't only fall on Nvidia, but the timing of Nvidia's fiscal Q2 lined up better with the fall in Ethereum mining capacity and likely release of cards into the used card market. AMD will likely feel the impact in its Q3 results.The impact of the Merge on Nvidia's sales will be, at best, uglyThe model provides a means of anticipating what happens when the Ethereum hash rate effectively goes to zero, post Merge. And it's not pretty. In an article on August 21, I gave my subscribers a heads-up concerning the impact of the Merge, and I further revised my model results on September 11.If we assume that the entire mining pool consists of newer graphics cards released since September 2020 (RTX 30 series for Nvidia), then Nvidia's RTX 30 series sales for Q3 are completely wiped out, as shown in the spreadsheet calculations extended to Q3:Mark HibbenThe model deducts the hash rate contribution due to Nvidia Crypto Mining Processors (CMP). These cannot be sold into the used graphics cards market, since they lack display outputs.This amounts to assuming that all of the cards used in mining before September 2020 (about when the RTX 30 series launched) were replaced with newer cards. This probably isn't absolutely correct, and the mining pool has consisted of a mixture of older and newer cards.As a lower bound, we can assume that none of the older cards were replaced. These cards would not impact new card sales, since they aren't comparable to current generation cards. The model can deduct these cards from the calculated revenue impact by simply deducting the pre-September 2020 hash rate of 228.2361 terahash/sec (THASH) for the mining pool:Mark HibbenSo the lost revenue impact for Nvidia looks to be in the range of $2-3 billion, and it probably won't fall all in Q3 but be distributed over several quarters. The effect of the Merge is to effectively zero out Nvidia's crypto revenue over time. The revenue made during Ethereum's mining pool expansion is negated by lost revenue post Merge, with the exception of CMP revenue and revenue from older graphics cards that might still have been in the pool at the time of the Merge.How will the Merge affect Nvidia's expected RTX 40 series launch?Nvidia has been expected to announce its GeForce RTX 40 series cards for some time, and Nvidia posted this announcement on its website:NvidiaVarious tech pundits are claiming that this is the worst time for Nvidia to launch a new generation of gaming graphics cards. One important feature expected of the RTX 40 series is support for PCIE 5.0. This could be important in reducing the impact of the Ethereum Merge.The current generation of Nvidia and AMD cards only support PCIE 4.0, the prevailing standard at the time of their introduction in late 2020. PCIE 5.0 will double the communication bandwidth compared to 4.0. It's not clear how critical that will be to gaming performance, but it should eliminate PCIE as a bottleneck, if it ever was.Just as important, new generation CPUs will have to support PCIE 5.0, since the GPU is typically linked directly to the CPU through a built in PCIE 16 lane (x16) interface. This is the preferred architecture for maximum gaming performance, and all modern CPUs provide at least 16 lanes of PCIE for this purpose.Intel (INTC) already supports PCIE 5.0 in its latest Alder Lake 12th generation Core series of desktop CPUs. Since Alder Lake launched early this year, there have been no PCIE 5.0 graphics cards to take advantage of the interface, but the current installed base of Alder Lake systems represents a waiting market for the new PCIE 5.0 cards.Unfortunately, I don't have an estimate of Alder Lake sales, so I have no idea what the size of that market might be. Current generation AMD Ryzen 5000 series desktop CPUs only offer PCIE 4.0, but the Ryzen 7000 series has been announced with support for PCIE 5.0, with a launch expected in October. AMD's next-generation GPUs have only been \"teased\" but are expected to support PCIE 5.0 as well.The performance desktop market (mostly gamers) is moving rapidly to PCIE 5.0, and Nvidia will have, at least for a few months, the only graphics cards that support it. Gamers tend to be early adopters and favor the highest performance technology.Sincenoneof the used cards released from the Merge will support PCIE 5.0, this may serve to somewhat isolate the RTX 40 series launch from the impact of the Merge. How much isolation is still unclear.Most of the current population of gaming systems will only support PCIE 4.0, so this part of the market would probably not buy RTX 40 series in any case. Most 40 series sales will go into new system builds.Certainly, the impact of the Merge will be to weaken sales of the RTX 40 series at launch. However, overall sales in the Gaming segment will probably benefit from the launch. The 40 series launch will give the segment a revenue stream it would not have had otherwise.Investor takeaways: will Nvidia need to restate guidance for this quarter?Nvidia guided to revenue of $5.9 billion for fiscal Q3 during the Q2 conference call, and this implies revenue in the gaming segment of about $1 billion. Did Nvidia account for the Merge in their guidance?When asked specifically about the impact of the Merge, Nvidia management had no comment, and professed an inability to account for the crypto impact. The guidance was claimed to be due to a retail channel inventory glut.If Nvidia really wasn't accounting for the Merge, then almost certainly it will need to restate guidance for Q3. Probably, the RTX 40 series launch will not be enough to provide the roughly $1 billion in Gaming segment revenue.In my Nvidia integrated financial model, I'm assuming a $3 billion hit due to the Merge and another $1 billion due to inventory correction. In the model, this is distributed over the next four quarters from fiscal 2023 Q3 to fiscal 2024 Q2, with Gaming segment sales only starting to recover in fiscal 2024 Q3.Despite this, I'm still modeling growth in the all-important Data Center segment. Nvidia's next-generation data center accelerator, the Hopper H100, is testing out to be very impressive and is in production now with deliveries expected by the end of the calendar year.Hopper should ensure continued growth in the Data Center segment, and the advent of Grace, Nvidia's ARM architecture CPU for the data center, should further enhance growth. Data Center growth largely compensates for revenue declines expected in Gaming for this year and next, according to the model:Mark HibbenAccording to my long-term Discounted Cash Flow model, Nvidia has a fair value of $192. I consider Nvidia's future to be very bright, despite the impact of crypto in the near term.Currently, I have Nvidia rated at Hold, and Nvidia has been a relatively small part of the Rethink Technology portfolio since selling most of my Nvidia shares (at a substantial profit) in April. I'm pretty close to upgrading Nvidia to Buy, but I'm waiting to see if the Merge (and possible guidance restatement) will drive Nvidia's price even lower.Also, I'm waiting to see what Nvidia has to offer in its new 40 series on September 20. Nvidia has consistently set the performance bar in the desktop graphics card market. Most likely, Nvidia is already undervalued.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937846428,"gmtCreate":1663402823964,"gmtModify":1676537266383,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937846428","repostId":"2268646686","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2268646686","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1663382033,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2268646686?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-17 10:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Netflix and Disney+ Are About to Get Ads. What It Means for Streaming Stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2268646686","media":"Barrons","summary":"\"We'll be right back after these messages.\" The age-old commercial lead-in takes on new meaning at a","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>&#34;We&#39;ll be right back after these messages.&#34; The age-old commercial lead-in takes on new meaning at a time when a bounceback for Netflix and Walt Disney shares rests on the coming launch of ad-supported tiers for the two streaming leaders.</p><p>For Netflix (ticker: NFLX), the goal is to reverse subscriber losses with cheaper plans. For Disney+, it&#39;s to offset a recent acceleration in cable cord-cutting. Barron&#39;s laid out those concerns in a March cover story.</p><p>Much could go wrong in the near term for these companies and their rivals. A glut of advertising slots could push industry prices lower, especially if the economy weakens. Too many ads per hour could frustrate viewers. Too few could accelerate defections from full-price streaming tiers and cable.</p><p>Yet, if the television industry is successful, it could not only rekindle growth, but also pull back power that has been lost to the closed-off advertising economies of Google and Facebook.</p><p>&#34;Connected television is what will bring down the walls of walled gardens,&#34; says Jeff Green, founder and CEO of Trade Desk (TTD), which competes with Alphabet as an ad-buying platform and has partnered with Disney in streaming advertising. He means that streaming can match the targeting power of online search and social media while making the emotional connection of video. &#34;A banner ad has never made you cry,&#34; he says.</p><p>Trade Desk is poised to be a winner as more advertising dollars flow to streaming.</p><p>Microsoft (MSFT), a rising ad player, should benefit, as well. Roku (ROKU) could have better odds than its collapsed stock price suggests. Walt Disney (DIS) and Warner Bros. Discovery(WBD) (WBD) will benefit from rich content engines. Netflix, meanwhile, faces plenty of risk. And across the industry, more consolidation appears inevitable.</p><p>Advertising already abounds on streaming. What is changing now is the scale. Netflix dominates viewership. Its users took in 1.3 trillion minutes of content during the most recent TV season, roughly from late last September to early May, according to Nielsen data by way of BofA Securities. That&#39;s nearly double the attention paid over the same period to CBS, the ratings leader in traditional TV, and five times that of the next-biggest streamer, Disney+.</p><p>Netflix just moved up the launch of its ad-supported service to November to beat Disney+ on Dec. 8. That means it will want to lock in advertisers by the end of this month. It&#39;s expected to start at an &#34;ad load&#34; of four minutes per content hour.</p><p>Jessica Reif Ehrlich, a media analyst at BofA, predicts what she calls silent price hikes in the form of a quick rise in ads for each hour. &#34;There&#39;s no way it&#39;s going to stay at three, four, five minutes,&#34; she says. &#34;Hopefully it won&#39;t be what we see on linear, which is unbearable.&#34;</p><p>The TV business is packed with jargon. Here&#39;s a quick glossary for investors. Linear means that movies and shows run at scheduled times, and can refer to either old-fashioned broadcast and cable, or to FAST, which stands for free ad-supported streaming television. FAST services skimp on content costs and pack in the ads, but users can&#39;t beat the price. Paramount Global(PARA) (PARA) owns the FAST service Pluto TV; Comcast (CMCSA) has Xumo; and Fox (FOX) has Tubi.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ebf88ec8afb5be0a500562b5b07ede3\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"405\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>The better-known streaming services, where users pay subscriptions to start shows when they want, are called SVODs, for subscription video on demand. When the cost is subsidized with ads, like the new Netflix and Disney+ tiers, they&#39;re called AVODs. Some FASTs dabble in AVOD, and vice versa, and both services compete for the same ad budgets.</p><p>That&#39;s the taxonomy. Here&#39;s the moneymaking: Ad revenue is determined by ad load, audience size, and CPM, or cost per mille, which is Latin for thousand, and refers to the price of reaching that many screens. Ads are sold ahead of time during so-called upfront negotiations in late spring and early summer, and last-minute in what&#39;s called the scatter market. TV companies use a carrot-and-stick approach to get early commitments, offering choice spots during upfronts, and warning of higher rates for those who wait for scatter.</p><p>To sum up the current state of TV advertising, upfronts were solid this year, but scatter has turned choppy. Also, to date, streaming has made most of its advertising inroads in scatter, whereas traditional television still rules the upfronts. That&#39;s bound to change.</p><p>Now for the question that matters most: Where will CPMs come in for Netflix? If they&#39;re high, it could provide cover for the entire industry to prosper. If they&#39;re low, Netflix will need a hefty ad load in a hurry, and it still might not make up for customers who trade down from full-price subscriptions. The whisper number is that the company is looking for $65. Some on Wall Street are whispering back: &#34;Good luck.&#34;</p><p>Hulu is a veteran at selling streaming ads, and gets CPMs that are estimated in the $20s and low $30s. (Disney owns two-thirds of Hulu and will likely buy the rest from Comcast in 2024.) HBO Max is a top CPM draw, with rates pegged in the $40s. Nat Schindler, BofA&#39;s Netflix analyst, who is bearish on the stock, expects CPMs of $20 to $40. In one recent analysis, he calculated that Netflix could need $3.8 billion in yearly advertising revenue to make up for lost subscription fees, and will likely generate less than $1.8 billion to start.</p><p>Tim Nollen at Macquarie Research predicts that Netflix will secure CPMs of $50 by next year and $60 by 2025. By then, he sees the company bringing in $3.6 billion in U.S. and Canada advertising revenue, and $8.5 billion worldwide, or $2 billion more than the company would bring in without advertising. He recently upgraded the stock to Neutral.</p><p>Evercore ISI analyst Mark Mahaney upgraded Netflix to Outperform this past week. He sees $1 billion to $2 billion in incremental revenue by 2024 -- and 10 million more subscribers. A recent survey of &#34;churned&#34; or departed subscribers leads him to believe that 20% of them could return with a cheaper tier. Just how cheap it will be isn&#39;t yet known, but forecasts of $7 to $9 a month are common. The cheapest ad-free Netflix plan costs $9.99 a month, and the most popular one is $15.49. Disney recently priced its ad-supported Disney+ at $7.99 a month -- the same price as the current ad-free service, which will soon move to $10.99.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ebad0a44b28daeb74305169595952a6\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>ILLUSTRATION BY BARRON&#39;S STAFF; ALAMY (5); NETFLIX (2); DISNEY+ (2)</span></p><p>One factor that could weigh on Netflix&#39;s CPMs early on is that the company will offer little viewer information, which might have more to do with its abilities than privacy concerns. A partnership with Microsoft will help, eventually.</p><p>&#34;The ink isn&#39;t even dry on the agreement,&#34; says Ratko Vidakovic, founder of AdProfs, an ad-technology consultant. &#34;It&#39;s going to take a while for them to spin up the new advertising infrastructure that&#39;s going to allow them to offer more sophisticated ad targeting.&#34;</p><p>Traditional television has limited ability to target viewers with precision. The internet has plenty of ability, but it has long relied on technologies like tracking cookies that raise privacy concerns. Apple and Alphabet have cracked down on third-party cookies on their devices and software, and now advertisers are pondering a post-cookie world.</p><p>Meanwhile, streaming services have direct credit card relationships with customers, giving them valuable insights that could fetch top dollar from advertisers. What is needed is a way for advertisers to tailor their campaigns without Netflix sharing individual customer details or allowing outsiders to track Netflix users to other sites and advertise to them at lower cost.</p><p>One answer is called a data clean room, or software that allows collaboration without oversharing. Trade Desk is providing a data clean room for Disney. Microsoft, which just bought a programmatic advertising company called Xandr from AT&amp;T, is believed to be doing something similar for Netflix. Microsoft declined to comment.</p><p>That could eventually make Netflix an advertising powerhouse. But there&#39;s plenty of risk for investors between now and then. Free cash flow for the company hasn&#39;t quite turned meaningfully and consistently positive. Content costs have soared -- witness the more than $1 billion that Amazon.com is expected to spend on its new series loosely related to the Lord of the Rings books. Studios that once licensed shows cheaply are now hoarding them for their own streaming platforms.</p><p>Netflix has lost subscribers for two quarters running. The stock has rebounded 28% since the end of June in anticipation of a return to growth, versus 4% for the S&amp;P 500 index. Meanwhile, the U.S. advertising industry turned in its weakest performance in two years in July, with spending falling 12.7% from a year earlier, according to research group Standard Media Index.</p><p>Without more growth soon, investors could begin second-guessing whether Netflix&#39;s projected $4.5 billion in free cash flow in 2025 is worth $97 billion in stock market value today. One wild card: Microsoft is believed to have offered Netflix a minimum revenue guarantee of perhaps $500 million to $1 billion to help win its advertising business.</p><p>For the legacy players, pay-TV subscriptions have fallen from a peak of more than 100 million in 2015 to about 82 million, and losses have lately been accelerating. But at least the remaining cash flows offer a bridge until streaming pays off. Disney, with a market value of about $205 billion, could top $10 billion in free cash flow in three years. Paramount, valued at $15 billion, is expected to generate at least $1 billion.</p><p>The cash cow of the group is Warner Bros. Discovery. It&#39;s valued at $31 billion and is seen generating nearly $4 billion in free cash this year and well over $9 billion in three years. Peacock owner Comcast earns far more from home cable connections, especially for broadband service, than from show business.</p><p>There have already been two big streaming deals this year. Discovery completed its purchase of AT&amp;T’s WarnerMedia, and Amazon closed on TV and movie studio MGM. Warner now says it will consolidate its HBO Max and Discovery+ streaming platforms to hold down costs. Paramount is considering the same for Showtime and Paramount+.</p><p>This past week, activist investor Daniel Loeb backed off his demand that Disney sell ESPN, tweeting about a “better understanding” of its potential. Loeb had argued that ESPN would be worth more to a company that would pursue gambling. Disney CEO Bob Chapek, asked at a recent company event whether ESPN is developing a gambling app, said, “We’re working very hard on that.”</p><p>Ehrlich at BofA and Nollen at Macquarie both favor Disney and Warner for their mix of must-haves like storied studios, live news, and sports rights. If Disney’s price increase looks like a dare for subscribers to downgrade, there’s a good reason. “Disney will probably make more on their AVOD platform than the SVOD,” says Ehrlich.</p><p>Nollen is particularly bullish on Trade Desk. “Because they’re neutral, because they’ve got great scale, great relationships, great ability to tie very targeted ads into all of these services, we think they’re going to be one of the winners in this transition,” he says.</p><p>Alicia Reese, a media analyst at Wedbush, recommends former highflier Roku, whose stock has collapsed by 78% in a year. It has a TV operating system that allows set owners to search for programs across their streaming apps, plus an AVOD called Roku TV.

For Disney+, it's to offset a recent acceleration in cable cord-cutting. Barron's laid out those concerns in a March cover story.Much could go wrong in the near term for these companies and their rivals. A glut of advertising slots could push industry prices lower, especially if the economy weakens. Too many ads per hour could frustrate viewers. Too few could accelerate defections from full-price streaming tiers and cable.Yet, if the television industry is successful, it could not only rekindle growth, but also pull back power that has been lost to the closed-off advertising economies of Google and Facebook.\"Connected television is what will bring down the walls of walled gardens,\" says Jeff Green, founder and CEO of Trade Desk (TTD), which competes with Alphabet as an ad-buying platform and has partnered with Disney in streaming advertising. He means that streaming can match the targeting power of online search and social media while making the emotional connection of video. \"A banner ad has never made you cry,\" he says.Trade Desk is poised to be a winner as more advertising dollars flow to streaming.Microsoft (MSFT), a rising ad player, should benefit, as well. Roku (ROKU) could have better odds than its collapsed stock price suggests. Walt Disney (DIS) and Warner Bros. Discovery(WBD) (WBD) will benefit from rich content engines. Netflix, meanwhile, faces plenty of risk. And across the industry, more consolidation appears inevitable.Advertising already abounds on streaming. What is changing now is the scale. Netflix dominates viewership. Its users took in 1.3 trillion minutes of content during the most recent TV season, roughly from late last September to early May, according to Nielsen data by way of BofA Securities. That's nearly double the attention paid over the same period to CBS, the ratings leader in traditional TV, and five times that of the next-biggest streamer, Disney+.Netflix just moved up the launch of its ad-supported service to November to beat Disney+ on Dec. 8. That means it will want to lock in advertisers by the end of this month. It's expected to start at an \"ad load\" of four minutes per content hour.Jessica Reif Ehrlich, a media analyst at BofA, predicts what she calls silent price hikes in the form of a quick rise in ads for each hour. \"There's no way it's going to stay at three, four, five minutes,\" she says. \"Hopefully it won't be what we see on linear, which is unbearable.\"The TV business is packed with jargon. Here's a quick glossary for investors. Linear means that movies and shows run at scheduled times, and can refer to either old-fashioned broadcast and cable, or to FAST, which stands for free ad-supported streaming television. FAST services skimp on content costs and pack in the ads, but users can't beat the price. Paramount Global(PARA) (PARA) owns the FAST service Pluto TV; Comcast (CMCSA) has Xumo; and Fox (FOX) has Tubi.The better-known streaming services, where users pay subscriptions to start shows when they want, are called SVODs, for subscription video on demand. When the cost is subsidized with ads, like the new Netflix and Disney+ tiers, they're called AVODs. Some FASTs dabble in AVOD, and vice versa, and both services compete for the same ad budgets.That's the taxonomy. Here's the moneymaking: Ad revenue is determined by ad load, audience size, and CPM, or cost per mille, which is Latin for thousand, and refers to the price of reaching that many screens. Ads are sold ahead of time during so-called upfront negotiations in late spring and early summer, and last-minute in what's called the scatter market. TV companies use a carrot-and-stick approach to get early commitments, offering choice spots during upfronts, and warning of higher rates for those who wait for scatter.To sum up the current state of TV advertising, upfronts were solid this year, but scatter has turned choppy. Also, to date, streaming has made most of its advertising inroads in scatter, whereas traditional television still rules the upfronts. That's bound to change.Now for the question that matters most: Where will CPMs come in for Netflix? If they're high, it could provide cover for the entire industry to prosper. If they're low, Netflix will need a hefty ad load in a hurry, and it still might not make up for customers who trade down from full-price subscriptions. The whisper number is that the company is looking for $65. Some on Wall Street are whispering back: \"Good luck.\"Hulu is a veteran at selling streaming ads, and gets CPMs that are estimated in the $20s and low $30s. (Disney owns two-thirds of Hulu and will likely buy the rest from Comcast in 2024.) HBO Max is a top CPM draw, with rates pegged in the $40s. Nat Schindler, BofA's Netflix analyst, who is bearish on the stock, expects CPMs of $20 to $40. In one recent analysis, he calculated that Netflix could need $3.8 billion in yearly advertising revenue to make up for lost subscription fees, and will likely generate less than $1.8 billion to start.Tim Nollen at Macquarie Research predicts that Netflix will secure CPMs of $50 by next year and $60 by 2025. By then, he sees the company bringing in $3.6 billion in U.S. and Canada advertising revenue, and $8.5 billion worldwide, or $2 billion more than the company would bring in without advertising. He recently upgraded the stock to Neutral.Evercore ISI analyst Mark Mahaney upgraded Netflix to Outperform this past week. He sees $1 billion to $2 billion in incremental revenue by 2024 -- and 10 million more subscribers. A recent survey of \"churned\" or departed subscribers leads him to believe that 20% of them could return with a cheaper tier. Just how cheap it will be isn't yet known, but forecasts of $7 to $9 a month are common. The cheapest ad-free Netflix plan costs $9.99 a month, and the most popular one is $15.49. Disney recently priced its ad-supported Disney+ at $7.99 a month -- the same price as the current ad-free service, which will soon move to $10.99.ILLUSTRATION BY BARRON'S STAFF; ALAMY (5); NETFLIX (2); DISNEY+ (2)One factor that could weigh on Netflix's CPMs early on is that the company will offer little viewer information, which might have more to do with its abilities than privacy concerns. A partnership with Microsoft will help, eventually.\"The ink isn't even dry on the agreement,\" says Ratko Vidakovic, founder of AdProfs, an ad-technology consultant. \"It's going to take a while for them to spin up the new advertising infrastructure that's going to allow them to offer more sophisticated ad targeting.\"Traditional television has limited ability to target viewers with precision. The internet has plenty of ability, but it has long relied on technologies like tracking cookies that raise privacy concerns. Apple and Alphabet have cracked down on third-party cookies on their devices and software, and now advertisers are pondering a post-cookie world.Meanwhile, streaming services have direct credit card relationships with customers, giving them valuable insights that could fetch top dollar from advertisers. What is needed is a way for advertisers to tailor their campaigns without Netflix sharing individual customer details or allowing outsiders to track Netflix users to other sites and advertise to them at lower cost.One answer is called a data clean room, or software that allows collaboration without oversharing. Trade Desk is providing a data clean room for Disney. Microsoft, which just bought a programmatic advertising company called Xandr from AT&T, is believed to be doing something similar for Netflix. Microsoft declined to comment.That could eventually make Netflix an advertising powerhouse. But there's plenty of risk for investors between now and then. Free cash flow for the company hasn't quite turned meaningfully and consistently positive. Content costs have soared -- witness the more than $1 billion that Amazon.com is expected to spend on its new series loosely related to the Lord of the Rings books. Studios that once licensed shows cheaply are now hoarding them for their own streaming platforms.Netflix has lost subscribers for two quarters running. The stock has rebounded 28% since the end of June in anticipation of a return to growth, versus 4% for the S&P 500 index. Meanwhile, the U.S. advertising industry turned in its weakest performance in two years in July, with spending falling 12.7% from a year earlier, according to research group Standard Media Index.Without more growth soon, investors could begin second-guessing whether Netflix's projected $4.5 billion in free cash flow in 2025 is worth $97 billion in stock market value today. One wild card: Microsoft is believed to have offered Netflix a minimum revenue guarantee of perhaps $500 million to $1 billion to help win its advertising business.For the legacy players, pay-TV subscriptions have fallen from a peak of more than 100 million in 2015 to about 82 million, and losses have lately been accelerating. But at least the remaining cash flows offer a bridge until streaming pays off. Disney, with a market value of about $205 billion, could top $10 billion in free cash flow in three years. Paramount, valued at $15 billion, is expected to generate at least $1 billion.The cash cow of the group is Warner Bros. Discovery. It's valued at $31 billion and is seen generating nearly $4 billion in free cash this year and well over $9 billion in three years. Peacock owner Comcast earns far more from home cable connections, especially for broadband service, than from show business.There have already been two big streaming deals this year. Discovery completed its purchase of AT&T’s WarnerMedia, and Amazon closed on TV and movie studio MGM. Warner now says it will consolidate its HBO Max and Discovery+ streaming platforms to hold down costs. Paramount is considering the same for Showtime and Paramount+.This past week, activist investor Daniel Loeb backed off his demand that Disney sell ESPN, tweeting about a “better understanding” of its potential. Loeb had argued that ESPN would be worth more to a company that would pursue gambling. Disney CEO Bob Chapek, asked at a recent company event whether ESPN is developing a gambling app, said, “We’re working very hard on that.”Ehrlich at BofA and Nollen at Macquarie both favor Disney and Warner for their mix of must-haves like storied studios, live news, and sports rights. If Disney’s price increase looks like a dare for subscribers to downgrade, there’s a good reason. “Disney will probably make more on their AVOD platform than the SVOD,” says Ehrlich.Nollen is particularly bullish on Trade Desk. “Because they’re neutral, because they’ve got great scale, great relationships, great ability to tie very targeted ads into all of these services, we think they’re going to be one of the winners in this transition,” he says.Alicia Reese, a media analyst at Wedbush, recommends former highflier Roku, whose stock has collapsed by 78% in a year. It has a TV operating system that allows set owners to search for programs across their streaming apps, plus an AVOD called Roku TV. The company was hit by high exposure to the weakened scatter market, says Reese. But the market value is down to $9.4 billion, and the consensus view is that free cash flow will reach $500 million in three to four years.Streaming commercials could prove effective enough to siphon spending to TV from online display ads in the years ahead, says Brett Gordon, who teaches marketing at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.At Trade Desk, CEO Green is eyeing a global ad budget approaching $1 trillion. “I want as much of that as possible,” he says. And although his buying platform plays in websites, apps, podcasts, and more, he makes no secret of where he thinks the money is headed. “Connected television,” he says, “is quickly becoming the most effective way to advertise on the planet at scale.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":399,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937067883,"gmtCreate":1663327490642,"gmtModify":1676537252861,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937067883","repostId":"1183623234","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":146,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9934120994,"gmtCreate":1663205865718,"gmtModify":1676537227078,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558097748623340","idStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934120994","repostId":"1119688207","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":359840417,"gmtCreate":1616386239139,"gmtModify":1704793333371,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>Upupup","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>Upupup","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$Upupup","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":13,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/359840417","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":849,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3561084656165923","authorId":"3561084656165923","name":"Jasoncgs","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1622d5cfadd1fed439627266676535c8","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3561084656165923","authorIdStr":"3561084656165923"},"content":"What Do u think of nio","text":"What Do u think of nio","html":"What Do u think of nio"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":131909593,"gmtCreate":1621819316412,"gmtModify":1704362717812,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please response thx&nbsp;","listText":"Please response thx&nbsp;","text":"Please response thx","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/131909593","repostId":"1142753520","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142753520","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1621816950,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1142753520?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-24 08:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"IPO Previews For The Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142753520","media":"Benzinga","summary":"With the start of a new week comes the excitement surrounding a new set of companies looking to make","content":"<p>With the start of a new week comes the excitement surrounding a new set of companies looking to make an impact through their public offerings.According to Benzinga Pro, these enticing companies are scheduled to trade publicly this week.</p><p><b>FIGS, Inc</b>(NYSE:FIGS) will be trading publicly starting on May 27, 2021 at 05:00 AM.

Typically, IPOs offer companies the ability to build capital.

The next-generation of Apple's wireless earbuds are believed to have a design more in line with its higher-end AirPods Pro, along with spatial audio support and touch controls. AirPods have cultivated a cult-like following over the years and emerged as a fashion and status symbol, but it's possible Apple could wait until later this year to show off a new model.</p><p>Apple's MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are also due for refreshes, but it's unclear if they'll get one as early as next week. Apple recently discontinued its iMac Pro line, once the most-powerful computer the company offered, and its original HomePod to focus more on the HomePod mini.</p><p>The company could also walk users through an expected iOS 14.5 software update focused on privacy. Its upcoming App Tracking Transparency feature will require app developers to explicitly divulge how they're collecting user data, what it'll be used for, and require user consent before they download or update apps from the App Store.</p><p>Still, all eyes will be on the lookout for new gadgets on Tuesday. \"Despite the disruptions in the production line, crisis in the semiconductor industry and economic uncertainty that was caused by pandemic, demand for consumer products generally remained resilient,\" said Kouri.</p><p>ABI Research expects demand for certain products, such as true wireless earbuds and 5G devices, will see explosive growth the coming years, but tech companies like Apple will first have to provide enough incentive for consumers to spend their dollars.</p><p>Apple's event kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET/10:00 a.m. PT on its website, YouTube and Apple TV.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

AirTags have been reportedly in the works as far back as 2019 when pictures hidden within iOS 13 suggested small, flat, circular discs with built-in chips could allow someone to locate items when connected to Apple's Find My app.This is where AR could come into play. In iOS 13, a string of code stated: \"Walk around several feet and move your iPhone up and down until a balloon comes into view,\" indicating where an item may be hiding, according to MacRumors.Apple TV, privacy features and moreTim Cook, CEO of Apple unveils a new iPad Pro during a launch event at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on October 30, 2018 in New York City.Not only is the Apple TV due for a new processor and better refresh support for gaming, a redesigned remote could work as a physical locator for AirTags, according to tech blog 9to5Mac.And then there's AirPods 3. The next-generation of Apple's wireless earbuds are believed to have a design more in line with its higher-end AirPods Pro, along with spatial audio support and touch controls. AirPods have cultivated a cult-like following over the years and emerged as a fashion and status symbol, but it's possible Apple could wait until later this year to show off a new model.Apple's MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are also due for refreshes, but it's unclear if they'll get one as early as next week. Apple recently discontinued its iMac Pro line, once the most-powerful computer the company offered, and its original HomePod to focus more on the HomePod mini.The company could also walk users through an expected iOS 14.5 software update focused on privacy. Its upcoming App Tracking Transparency feature will require app developers to explicitly divulge how they're collecting user data, what it'll be used for, and require user consent before they download or update apps from the App Store.Still, all eyes will be on the lookout for new gadgets on Tuesday. \"Despite the disruptions in the production line, crisis in the semiconductor industry and economic uncertainty that was caused by pandemic, demand for consumer products generally remained resilient,\" said Kouri.ABI Research expects demand for certain products, such as true wireless earbuds and 5G devices, will see explosive growth the coming years, but tech companies like Apple will first have to provide enough incentive for consumers to spend their dollars.Apple's event kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET/10:00 a.m. PT on its website, YouTube and Apple TV.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":106157823,"gmtCreate":1620096049162,"gmtModify":1704338588045,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please help to response here thanks&nbsp;","listText":"Please help to response here thanks&nbsp;","text":"Please help to response here thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/106157823","repostId":"1197072150","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":73,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165774177,"gmtCreate":1624159654899,"gmtModify":1703829788733,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls help to comment&nbsp;","listText":"Pls help to comment&nbsp;","text":"Pls help to comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/165774177","repostId":"1199331995","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199331995","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624065374,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1199331995?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-19 09:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. IPO Week Ahead: Billion-Dollar Deals Come To Market In A 12 IPO Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199331995","media":"Renaissance","summary":"12 IPOs are scheduled to raise $5.6 billion in the week ahead led by two billion-dollar deals.Chinese freight platform Full Truck Alliance plans to raise $1.5 billion at a $19.7 billion market cap.

Since fiscal 2016 (ended Jan. 31, 2016), NVIDIA's revenue has grown at 29% per year.

That is, most stocks are going down, even though SPX is going up. In fact, what is driving this market is a handful of large-cap NASDAQ stocks (the FAANG stocks plus Microsoft are the strongest stocks).</p>\n<p>Things have improved a little in the last couple of weeks, and so our breadth oscillators are on buy signals, but they are still in negative territory. Normally when SPX is making new all-time highs, the breadth oscillators are will into positive territory, reflecting a strong overall market. But that is not the case now.</p>\n<p>Moreover, cumulative breadth (the running total of daily advances minus declines) has not made a new all-time high since June 11. SPX has made a new closing or intraday high on 19 separate trading days since then. That is a huge, negative market divergence, but it alone is not a sell signal. Rather, it is a strong warning to be alert – to avoid complacency.</p>\n<p>New 52-week highs on the NYSE continue to lead new 52-week lows. Recently, there have been some isolated days where new lows exceeded new highs using NASDAQ or “stocks only” data, but not when using NYSE data. That means this indicator remains bullish for stocks. It would turn negative if NYSE new lows exceeded new highs and were sufficiently large, but that has not happened.</p>\n<p>There is a realized volatility sell signal in place, as well. That occurred when the S&amp;P’s 20-day historical volatility first fell below 8% (in mid-June) and then later rose above 11% (in late July).</p>\n<p>Implied volatility, on the other hand, remains in a bullish state, as far the stock market is concerned. The VIX “spike peak” buy signal of July 20 remains in place. Moreover, the VIX 200-day moving average is still declining and is well above the price of VIX.There has been a slow “creep” upward by VIX, from 15 to 19 over the last month, but that doesn’t appear to be a significant change of trend.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3501a851250cf90d4f08e0152a5d9a9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"524\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>LAWRENCE MCMILLAN</span></p>\n<p>Finally, the construct of volatility derivatives remains positive for the stock market. The VIX futures are trading at a premium to VIX, and the term structures of those VIX futures and the CBOE Volatility Indices slope upward.</p>\n<p>The SPX chart is still positive. That is the most important fact. Until that changes, a long “core” position is recommended. Around that, one can trade confirmed signals – both buy and sell. A violation of the 4370 area by SPX would change things for the negative, but a breakout to new all-time highs above 4430 would reinforce the bullish case.</p>\n<p><b>New recommendation: Conditional SPX sell signal</b></p>\n<p>Based on the above article, we are going to lay out some parameters regarding taking a bearish position should SPX support be broken:</p>\n<p><b>IF SPX trades below 4370 and stays there for an hour,</b></p>\n<p><b>THEN buy 1 SPY Aug (27th) at-the-money put</b></p>\n<p><b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And sell 1 SPY Aug (27th) put with a striking price 25 points lower.</b></p>\n<p>In addition,</p>\n<p><b>IF SPX closes below 4370,</b></p>\n<p><b>THEN buy another bear spread:</b></p>\n<p><b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buy 1 (more) SPY Aug (27th) at-the-money put</b></p>\n<p><b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And sell 1 (more) SPY Aug (27th) put with a striking price 25 points lower.</b></p>\n<p>Note that it is possible that the second condition (close below 4370) could occur without the first condition being satisfied (if SPX breaks below 4370 late in a trading day).

The S&P 500 declined 0.4% to 4,192.85 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite fell 1% to 13,614.51.The benchmark S&P 500 sits about 1% from its all-time high reached earlier last month, but it has been stuck around these levels for about the last two weeks. The S&P 500 is up more than 11% this year so far.Merck and Dow Inc. were the two best performers in the 30-stock benchmark, both rising more than 2%. Consumer staples and utilities were the biggest gainers among 11 S&P 500 sectors, while consumer discretionary and tech weighed on the broader market, falling 1.2% and 0.9%, respectively.Shares of General Motors climbed nearly 6.4% after the company said it expects its results for the first half of 2021 to be “significantly better” than its prior guidance.On the data front, private job growth for May accelerated at its fastest pace in nearly a year as companies hired nearly a million workers, according to a report Thursday from payroll processing firm ADP.Total hires came to 978,000 for the month, a big jump from April’s 654,000 and the largest gain since June 2020. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for 680,000.Meanwhile,first-time claims for unemployment benefitsfor the week ended May 29 totaled 385,000, versus a Dow Jones estimate of 393,000. It also marked the first time that jobless claims fell below 400,000 since the early days of the pandemic.“With ADP knocking it out of the park, and jobless claims breaking that 400k barrier—a pandemic low—all eyes will be on the larger jobs picture tomorrow,” said Mike Loewengart, a managing director at E-Trade. “With seemingly all systems go on the jobs front, the economy is flashing some very real signs that this isn’t just a comeback—expansion mode could be on the horizon.”The market may be on hold before the release of the jobs report Friday, which is likely to show an additional 671,000 nonfarm payrolls in May, according to economists polled by Dow Jones. The economy added 266,000 jobs in April.Investors continued to monitor the wild action in meme stocks, particularly theater chain AMC Entertainment. The stock tumbled as much as 30% after practically doubling in the prior session, but shares cut losses after movie theater chain said it completed a stock offering launched just hours ago,raising $587 million.The stock ended the day about 18% lower.Other meme stocks also came under pressure Thursday. Bed Bath & Beyond fell more than 27%. The SoFi Social 50 ETF (SFYF), which tracks the top 50 most widely held U.S. listed stocks on SoFi’s retail brokerage platform, tumbled more than 6%.Reminiscent of what occurred earlier this year, retail traders rallying together on Reddit triggered a short squeeze in AMC earlier this week. On Wednesday, short-sellers betting against the stock lost $2.8 billion as the shares surged, according to S3 Partners. That brings their year-to-date losses to more than $5 billion, according to S3. Short sellers are forced to buy back the stock to cut their losses when it keeps rallying like this.The meme stock bubble in GameStop earlier this year weighed on the market a bit as investors worried it meant too much speculative activity was in the stock market. As losses in hedge funds betting against the stock mounted, worries increased about a pullback in risk-taking across Wall Street that could hit the overall market. AMC’s latest surge did not appear to be causing similar concerns so far.Here are company's financial statementsSlack tops Q1 expectations, ends quarter with 169,000 total paid customersLululemon first-quarter sales rise 88%, topping estimates, as store traffic reboundsCrowdStrike stock rises as earnings, outlook top Street viewDocuSign stock pops on earnings, outlook beat","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3580090660642631","authorId":"3580090660642631","name":"JJames","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eff7769cacb93c6579fd52e64856b684","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3580090660642631","authorIdStr":"3580090660642631"},"content":"help response to comment","text":"help response to comment","html":"help response to comment"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":132009106,"gmtCreate":1622042508105,"gmtModify":1704178445738,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please help to like and comment","listText":"Please help to like and comment","text":"Please help to like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/132009106","repostId":"1107926084","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107926084","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622042301,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1107926084?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-26 23:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"June Outlook: Inflation, Jobs, And The Fed Take Center Stage In Month Ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1107926084","media":"benzinga","summary":"A lot’s happening in June, but the most intense focus could be on a single event the afternoon of Ju","content":"<p>A lot’s happening in June, but the most intense focus could be on a single event the afternoon of June 16.</p><p>That’s when the&nbsp;Federal Open Market Committee&nbsp;(FOMC) wraps up its June meeting and Fed Chairman Jerome Powell addresses reporters.

Whether that happens could be determined by progress against the pandemic the next few weeks in places like India, Japan, and South Korea.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":97,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3579698948878933","authorId":"3579698948878933","name":"Charmmy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c391903e07c32df1c580c1844f0fd9f7","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3579698948878933","authorIdStr":"3579698948878933"},"content":"help comment thanks","text":"help comment thanks","html":"help comment thanks"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101257581,"gmtCreate":1619918781243,"gmtModify":1704336303527,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment pls&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/101257581","repostId":"1103106179","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103106179","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619917622,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1103106179?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-02 09:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting 2021: Highlights and storylines","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103106179","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Emily McCormick·ReporterSun, May 2, 2021, 5:03 AMWarren Buffett addressed investors around the world","content":"<p>Emily McCormick·ReporterSun, May 2, 2021, 5:03 AM</p><p>Warren Buffett addressed investors around the world on Saturday at Berkshire Hathaway's 2021 Annual Shareholder Meeting.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/RN?name=RNLive&amp;rndata={&quot;liveId&quot;:&quot;16196040827650&quot;}\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Playback Live Here！</b></a></p><p>In an hours-long event, the investing legend fielded questions on Berkshire's business and investment decisions,offered advice for first-time investorsand touted the strength of American corporations in a characteristically optimistic tone.Buffett nodded to the Federal Reserveand Congress for their swift response to the COVID-19 crisis, and underscored the rebound in the U.S. economy. And the Oracle of Omaha also addressed the recent rise in retail trading andonline brokerage firmslike Robinhood,the rally in bitcoinand the boom in SPAC mergers.</p><p>In many ways, this year's meeting looked different from those in the past. The annual event took placein a hotel conference room in Los Angelesrather than in an arena in Omaha, Nebraska, due to the ongoing pandemic.</p><p>Buffett's long-time business partner Charlie Munger also returned onstage this year to co-lead the event, after sitting out last year because of the pandemic. And in a new move, Buffett and Munger were joined by Berkshire's Vice Chairmen Gregory Abel and Ajit Jain,in a signal of potential succession plans at the company.</p><p>Here were some of the highlights from the event.</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is seeing signs of rising price pressures during the COVID-19 recovery, corroborating many market participants' concerns about increasing inflationary pressures.</p><p>\"We're seeing substantial inflation. We're raising prices, people are raising prices to us. And it's being accepted,\" Buffett said. \"We really do a lot of housing. The costs are just up, up, up. Steel costs. You know, just every day they're going up.\"</p><p>\"It's an economy – really, it's red hot. And we weren't expecting it,\" he added.</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett said trading apps like Robinhoodhave contributed to the \"casino aspect\" of the stock market as of late, exploiting individuals' inclinations to gamble.</p><p>“It’s become a very significant part of the casino aspect, the casino group, that has joined into the stock market in the last year, year and a half,\" Buffett said of Robinhood. \"There’s nothing, you know, there’s nothing illegal about it, there’s nothing immoral. But I don’t think you’d build a society around people doing it.\"</p><p>\"I think the degree to which a very rich society can reward people who know how to take advantage, essentially, of the gambling instincts of the American public, the worldwide public – it’s not the most admirable part of the accomplishment,\" Buffett added. \"But I think what America has accomplished is pretty admirable overall. And I think actually American corporations have turned out to be a wonderful place for people to put their money and save. But they also make terrific gambling chips, and if you cater to those gambling chips when people have money in their pocket for the first time and you tell them take my 30 or 40 or 50 trades a day and you’re not charging commission ... I hope we don’t have more of it.”</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett explained that Berkshire's move to unload many of its bank shares last year was not due to a lack of confidence in the banking industry, but more a decision to re-balance the portfolio and avoid being too heavily tilted toward one area.</p><p>\"I like banks generally, I just didn't like the proportion compared to the possible risk,\" Buffett said. \"We were over 10% of Bank of America. It's a real pain in the neck, more to the banks than us.\"</p><p>Berkshire held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&amp;T Bank Corp (MTB).</p><p>\"The banking business is way better than it was in the United States 10 or 15 years ago,\" he added. \"The banking business around the world in various places might worry me, but our banks are in far, far better shape than 10 or 15 years ago.\"</p><p>—</p><p>A shareholder asked Jain, who leads Berkshire's insurance business, whether he would be hypothetically willing to write an insurance policy for SpaceX founder Elon Musk for his proposed colonization of Mars.</p><p>\"This is an easy one. No thank you, I’ll pass,\" Jain said.</p><p>“Well I would say it would depend on the premium,” Buffett interjected with a laugh. \"And I would say that I would probably have a somewhat different rate if Elon was on board or not on board. It makes a difference if someone is asking to insure something.”</p><p>—</p><p>Warren Buffett declined to directly offer an opinion in response to a question on bitcoin, an assethe previously likened to \"rat poison squared.\"</p><p>\"I knew there’d be a question on bitcoin or crypto and I thought to myself well, I watch these politicians dodge questions all the time … The truth is, I’m going to dodge that question,\" Buffett said. \"Because the truth is, we’ve probably got hundreds of thousands of people that are watching this that own bitcoin. And we’ve probably got two people that are short. So we’ve got a choice of making 400,000 people mad at us and unhappy, and making two people happy. And it’s just a dumb equation.\"</p><p>Munger, however, issued a more direct attack.</p><p>\"Those who know me well are just waving the red flag at the bull. Of course I hate the bitcoin success,\" he said. \"And I don’t welcome a currency that’s so useful kidnappers and extortionists and so forth. Nor do I like shoveling out a few extra billions and billions and billions of dollars to somebody who just invented a new financial product out of thin air. So I think I should say modestly that the whole damn development is disgusting and contrary to the interest of civilization.\"</p><p>—</p><p>Both Buffett and Munger issued strong words of support for share repurchases, especially after Berkshire reported repurchasing an additional $6.6 billion in stock in the first three months of 2021.</p><p>\"They're a way, essentially, of distributing the cash to the people that want the cash when other co-owners mostly want you to reinvest,\" Buffett said. \"It's a savings vehicle.\"</p><p>\"I find it almost impossible to believe some of the arguments that are made that it's terrible to repurchase shares from a partner if they want to get out of something, and you're able to do it at prices that are advantages to the people that are staying,\" Buffett said. \"And it helps slightly the person that wants out.\"</p><p>Munger offered a similar view.</p><p>\"You're repurchasing stock. Just a bullet higher, it's deeply immoral,\" Munger said. \"But if you're repurchasing stock because it's a fair thing to do in the interest of your existing shareholders, it's a highly moral act and the people who are criticizing it are bonkers.\"</p><p>—</p><p>Low interest rates have catalyzed a surge in valuations across equities, giving those who invest in the markets an opportunity to create wealth, Munger said during the Berkshire Hathaway question and answer segment.</p><p>\"I think one consequence of this present situation is, Bernie Sanders has basically won,\" Munger says. \"Because with everything boomed out so high and interest rates so low, what's going to happen is, the millennial generation is going to have a hell of a time getting rich compared to our generation ... He did it by accident, but he won.\"</p><p>\"And so the difference between the difference between the rich and the poor in the generation that's rising is going to be a lot less,\" he added. \"So Bernie has won.\"</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett received a question around special purpose acquisition companies, or blank-check companies, which have become a hugely popular means for firms to go public over the past year.</p><p>\"The SPACs generally have to spend their money in two years, as I understand it. If you have to buy a business in two years, you put a gun to my head and said you've got to buy a business in two years, I'd buy one but it wouldn't be much of one,\" Buffett.</p><p>\"If you're running money from somebody else and you get a fee and you get the upside and you don't have the downside, you're going to buy something,\" he added. \"And frankly we're not competitive with that.\"</p><p>\"It's an exaggerated version of what we've seen in kind of a gambling-type market,\" he added.</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett conceded that selling some of Apple's stock in 2020 was \"probably a mistake,\" with shares rising even further this year following the tech-led 2020 in the markets.</p><p>\"The brand and the product — it's an incredible product,\" Buffett said of Apple. \"It is indispensable to people.\"</p><p>\"I sold some stock last year, although our shareholders still saw their shares go up because we repurchased shares,\" he added. \"But that was probably a mistake.\"</p><p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Appleas of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p><p>—</p><p>A shareholder directed a question to Ajit Jain and Greg Abel asking about the relationship the two likely next leaders of Berkshire Hathaway have with one another, given how iconic the relationship between Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger has been over the course of the company's history.</p><p>\"There's no question the relationship Warren has with Charlie is unique,\" Jain said. \"It's not going to be duplicated, certainly not by me and Greg. I can't think of anybody that can duplicate it.\"</p><p>\"I certainly have a lot of respect, both at a professional level and personal level, in terms of what Greg's abilities are,\" Jain added. \"We do not interact with each other as often as Warren and Charlie do. But every quarter we will talk to each other about our respective decision.\"</p><p>\"Even though the interaction may be different than say how Warren and Charlie do it ... we make sure we're always following up with each other but it goes beyond that,\" Abel said. \"Ajit has a great understanding of the Berkshire culture. I strongly believe I do too.\"</p><p>—</p><p>One shareholder asked Buffett about Berkshire's decision to invest in the oil and gas industry, and queried whether we might have \"build our own unrealistic consensus on the pace of change\" to clean energy solutions. Buffett defended the company's investment in the industry and in Chevron specifically, whichwas a relatively recent investment for the firm.</p><p>\"I would say that people are on the extremes of both sides are a little nuts. I would hate to have all the hydrocarbons banned in three years,\" Buffett said. \"You wouldn't want a world — it wouldn't work. And on the other hand, what's happening will be adapted to over time just as we've adapted to all kinds of things.\"</p><p>\"We have no problem owning Costco or Walmart and a substantial number of their stores. And they sell cigarettes, it's a big item,\" he added as an analogy. \"It's a very tough situation ... It's a very tough time to decide what companies benefit societies more than others.\"</p><p>\"I don't like making the moral judgments on stocks in terms of actually running the businesses, but there's something about every business that you knew that you wouldn't like,\" he added. \"If you expect perfection in your spouse or in your friends or in companies you're not going to find it.\"</p><p>\"Chevron is not an evil company in the least, and I have no compunction about owning it in the least, about owning Chevron,\" Buffett concluded. \"And if we owned the entire business I would not feel uncomfortable about being in that business.\"</p><p>Answering a subsequent question about the Berkshire board of directors' recommendation to voteagainst reporting climate-related risks, Munger added, \"I don't know we know the answer to all these questions about global warming.\"</p><p>\"The people who ask the questions think they know the answer. We're just more modest.\"</p><p>—</p><p>Most investors would benefit from simply purchasing an S&amp;P 500 index fund over the long run rather than picking individual stocks, even including Berkshire Hathaway, Buffett said during the question-and-answer session Saturday.</p><p>\"I recommend the S&amp;P 500 index fund … I’ve never recommended Berkshire to anybody because I don’t want people to buy it because they think I’m tipping them into something,\" he said. \"On my death there's a fund for my then-widow and 90% will go into an S&amp;P 500 index fund.\"</p><p>\"I do not think the average person can pick stocks,\" he added. \"We happen to have a large group of people that didn't pick stocks but they picked Charlie and me to manage money for them 50, 60 years ago. So we have a very unusual group of shareholders I think who look at Berkshire as a lifetime savings vehicle and one that they don’t have to think about and one that they'll, you know, they don't look at it again for 10 to 20 years.\"</p><p>Charlie Munger, on the other hand, had a different perspective.</p><p>\"I personally prefer holding Berkshire to holding the market,\" he said in response to the same question. \"I’m quite comfortable holding Berkshire. I think our businesses are better than the average in the market.\"</p><p>—</p><p>Buffett reiterated a staunchly supportive stance of U.S. corporations and capitalism in his opening remarks, highlighting that five of the six largest companies in the world by market capitalization currently comprise domestic companies. Those five companies are Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet and Facebook, with only Saudi Aramco of Saudi Arabia coming in as a non-U.S. mega-cap company in the top six.</p><p>But only a couple hundred years ago, the U.S. looked like the underdog.</p><p>\"In 1790 we had one-half of 1% of the world's population,\" Buffett said. \"600,000 of them were slaves. Ireland had more people than the United States had. Russia had five times as many people. Ukraine had twice as many people.\"</p><p>\"But here we were. What did we have? We had a map for the future, an aspirational map that somehow now only 232 years later, leaves us with five of the top six companies in the world,\" he said. \"It's not an accident. And it's not because we were way smarter, way stronger or anything of the sort. We had good soil, decent climate, but so did some of the other countries I named. This system has worked very well.\"</p><p>—</p><p>In opening remarks at the start of Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting, Buffett credited the U.S. economic recovery from the COVID-19 crisis toswift action by the Federal Reserve and Congress.</p><p>\"The economy went off a cliff in March. It was resurrected in an extraordinarily effective way by Federal Reserve action and later on the fiscal front by Congress,\" Buffett said in opening remarks at Berkshire's annual shareholder meeting.\"</p><p>He added that Berkshire Hathaway's own business has picked up tremendously alongside the broader economy, and suggested businesses like airlines were still among those most deeply affected by lingering effects from the pandemic.</p><p>\"Our businesses have done really quite well. This has been a very, very, very unusual recession in that it's been localized ... to an extraordinary extent. Right now business is really very good in a great many segments of the economy,\" he added. \"But there's still problems if you're in a few types of businesses that have been decimated such as international air travel or something of the sort.\"</p><p>—</p><p>The CEO of See's Candies, one of the longstanding companies owned by Berkshire Hathaway, told Yahoo Finance that the companyhas seen a strong rebound at the start of 2021. However, last year, business virtually ground to a halt.</p><p>\"This has been the longest decade of my life. We've been through a lot. Last year – it's a tale of a couple of different quarters. The first quarter was tremendous,\" See's Candies CEO Pat Egan said in an interview with Yahoo Finance's Julia La Roche ahead of the start of Berkshire's annual shareholder meeting. \"In the middle of March, when this [pandemic] really hit, we shut down all of our stores in a span of five days. So about 245 stores we closed in a matter of days. And then about a week and a half later, we closed our e-commerce fulfillment center down in Southern California. So for a period of time there, we essentially completely stopped.\"</p><p>\"We just said, we're not going to reopen stores or reopen plants until we can create a safe operating environment for our employees,\" he added. \"That took a while, and by the time we restored over the summer we saw customers coming back in. But for that period of time, it was pretty rough.\"</p><p>See's Candies just completed its \"best first quarter ever\" at the start of 2021, Egan added.</p><p>—</p><p>Berkshire Hathawayreported first-quarter results Saturday morning, underscoring arebound in profits across the firm's businesses amid the COVID-19 recovery. Berkshire also reported that it conducted another $6.6 billion of stock buybacks, extending its ramped-up share repurchase program from 2020.</p><p>Operating income during the first three months of the year increased to $7.02 billion, rising 19.5% compared to the $5.87 billion posted in the first quarter of 2020. Net earnings attributable to Berkshire shareholders swung back to a profit of $11.71 billion, compared to a loss of $49.75 billion in the same quarter last year.</p><p>Consolidated shareholders' equity rose by $4.8 billion to $448 billion by the end of March compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/RN?name=RNLive&amp;rndata={&quot;liveId&quot;:&quot;16196040827650&quot;}\" target=\"_blank\">If you want to watch the full live video, please click here.</a></p>","source":"yahoofinance_sg","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

No thank you, I’ll pass,\" Jain said.“Well I would say it would depend on the premium,” Buffett interjected with a laugh. \"And I would say that I would probably have a somewhat different rate if Elon was on board or not on board. It makes a difference if someone is asking to insure something.”—Warren Buffett declined to directly offer an opinion in response to a question on bitcoin, an assethe previously likened to \"rat poison squared.\"\"I knew there’d be a question on bitcoin or crypto and I thought to myself well, I watch these politicians dodge questions all the time … The truth is, I’m going to dodge that question,\" Buffett said. \"Because the truth is, we’ve probably got hundreds of thousands of people that are watching this that own bitcoin. And we’ve probably got two people that are short. So we’ve got a choice of making 400,000 people mad at us and unhappy, and making two people happy. And it’s just a dumb equation.\"Munger, however, issued a more direct attack.\"Those who know me well are just waving the red flag at the bull. Of course I hate the bitcoin success,\" he said. \"And I don’t welcome a currency that’s so useful kidnappers and extortionists and so forth. Nor do I like shoveling out a few extra billions and billions and billions of dollars to somebody who just invented a new financial product out of thin air. So I think I should say modestly that the whole damn development is disgusting and contrary to the interest of civilization.\"—Both Buffett and Munger issued strong words of support for share repurchases, especially after Berkshire reported repurchasing an additional $6.6 billion in stock in the first three months of 2021.\"They're a way, essentially, of distributing the cash to the people that want the cash when other co-owners mostly want you to reinvest,\" Buffett said. \"It's a savings vehicle.\"\"I find it almost impossible to believe some of the arguments that are made that it's terrible to repurchase shares from a partner if they want to get out of something, and you're able to do it at prices that are advantages to the people that are staying,\" Buffett said. \"And it helps slightly the person that wants out.\"Munger offered a similar view.\"You're repurchasing stock. Just a bullet higher, it's deeply immoral,\" Munger said. \"But if you're repurchasing stock because it's a fair thing to do in the interest of your existing shareholders, it's a highly moral act and the people who are criticizing it are bonkers.\"—Low interest rates have catalyzed a surge in valuations across equities, giving those who invest in the markets an opportunity to create wealth, Munger said during the Berkshire Hathaway question and answer segment.\"I think one consequence of this present situation is, Bernie Sanders has basically won,\" Munger says. \"Because with everything boomed out so high and interest rates so low, what's going to happen is, the millennial generation is going to have a hell of a time getting rich compared to our generation ... He did it by accident, but he won.\"\"And so the difference between the difference between the rich and the poor in the generation that's rising is going to be a lot less,\" he added. \"So Bernie has won.\"—Buffett received a question around special purpose acquisition companies, or blank-check companies, which have become a hugely popular means for firms to go public over the past year.\"The SPACs generally have to spend their money in two years, as I understand it. If you have to buy a business in two years, you put a gun to my head and said you've got to buy a business in two years, I'd buy one but it wouldn't be much of one,\" Buffett.\"If you're running money from somebody else and you get a fee and you get the upside and you don't have the downside, you're going to buy something,\" he added. \"And frankly we're not competitive with that.\"\"It's an exaggerated version of what we've seen in kind of a gambling-type market,\" he added.—Buffett conceded that selling some of Apple's stock in 2020 was \"probably a mistake,\" with shares rising even further this year following the tech-led 2020 in the markets.\"The brand and the product — it's an incredible product,\" Buffett said of Apple. \"It is indispensable to people.\"\"I sold some stock last year, although our shareholders still saw their shares go up because we repurchased shares,\" he added. \"But that was probably a mistake.\"Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Appleas of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.—A shareholder directed a question to Ajit Jain and Greg Abel asking about the relationship the two likely next leaders of Berkshire Hathaway have with one another, given how iconic the relationship between Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger has been over the course of the company's history.\"There's no question the relationship Warren has with Charlie is unique,\" Jain said. \"It's not going to be duplicated, certainly not by me and Greg. I can't think of anybody that can duplicate it.\"\"I certainly have a lot of respect, both at a professional level and personal level, in terms of what Greg's abilities are,\" Jain added. \"We do not interact with each other as often as Warren and Charlie do. But every quarter we will talk to each other about our respective decision.\"\"Even though the interaction may be different than say how Warren and Charlie do it ... we make sure we're always following up with each other but it goes beyond that,\" Abel said. \"Ajit has a great understanding of the Berkshire culture. I strongly believe I do too.\"—One shareholder asked Buffett about Berkshire's decision to invest in the oil and gas industry, and queried whether we might have \"build our own unrealistic consensus on the pace of change\" to clean energy solutions. Buffett defended the company's investment in the industry and in Chevron specifically, whichwas a relatively recent investment for the firm.\"I would say that people are on the extremes of both sides are a little nuts. I would hate to have all the hydrocarbons banned in three years,\" Buffett said. \"You wouldn't want a world — it wouldn't work. And on the other hand, what's happening will be adapted to over time just as we've adapted to all kinds of things.\"\"We have no problem owning Costco or Walmart and a substantial number of their stores. And they sell cigarettes, it's a big item,\" he added as an analogy. \"It's a very tough situation ... It's a very tough time to decide what companies benefit societies more than others.\"\"I don't like making the moral judgments on stocks in terms of actually running the businesses, but there's something about every business that you knew that you wouldn't like,\" he added. \"If you expect perfection in your spouse or in your friends or in companies you're not going to find it.\"\"Chevron is not an evil company in the least, and I have no compunction about owning it in the least, about owning Chevron,\" Buffett concluded. \"And if we owned the entire business I would not feel uncomfortable about being in that business.\"Answering a subsequent question about the Berkshire board of directors' recommendation to voteagainst reporting climate-related risks, Munger added, \"I don't know we know the answer to all these questions about global warming.\"\"The people who ask the questions think they know the answer. We're just more modest.\"—Most investors would benefit from simply purchasing an S&P 500 index fund over the long run rather than picking individual stocks, even including Berkshire Hathaway, Buffett said during the question-and-answer session Saturday.\"I recommend the S&P 500 index fund … I’ve never recommended Berkshire to anybody because I don’t want people to buy it because they think I’m tipping them into something,\" he said. \"On my death there's a fund for my then-widow and 90% will go into an S&P 500 index fund.\"\"I do not think the average person can pick stocks,\" he added. \"We happen to have a large group of people that didn't pick stocks but they picked Charlie and me to manage money for them 50, 60 years ago. So we have a very unusual group of shareholders I think who look at Berkshire as a lifetime savings vehicle and one that they don’t have to think about and one that they'll, you know, they don't look at it again for 10 to 20 years.\"Charlie Munger, on the other hand, had a different perspective.\"I personally prefer holding Berkshire to holding the market,\" he said in response to the same question. \"I’m quite comfortable holding Berkshire. I think our businesses are better than the average in the market.\"—Buffett reiterated a staunchly supportive stance of U.S. corporations and capitalism in his opening remarks, highlighting that five of the six largest companies in the world by market capitalization currently comprise domestic companies. Those five companies are Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet and Facebook, with only Saudi Aramco of Saudi Arabia coming in as a non-U.S. mega-cap company in the top six.But only a couple hundred years ago, the U.S. looked like the underdog.\"In 1790 we had one-half of 1% of the world's population,\" Buffett said. \"600,000 of them were slaves. Ireland had more people than the United States had. Russia had five times as many people. Ukraine had twice as many people.\"\"But here we were. What did we have? We had a map for the future, an aspirational map that somehow now only 232 years later, leaves us with five of the top six companies in the world,\" he said. \"It's not an accident. And it's not because we were way smarter, way stronger or anything of the sort. We had good soil, decent climate, but so did some of the other countries I named. This system has worked very well.\"—In opening remarks at the start of Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting, Buffett credited the U.S. economic recovery from the COVID-19 crisis toswift action by the Federal Reserve and Congress.\"The economy went off a cliff in March. It was resurrected in an extraordinarily effective way by Federal Reserve action and later on the fiscal front by Congress,\" Buffett said in opening remarks at Berkshire's annual shareholder meeting.\"He added that Berkshire Hathaway's own business has picked up tremendously alongside the broader economy, and suggested businesses like airlines were still among those most deeply affected by lingering effects from the pandemic.\"Our businesses have done really quite well. This has been a very, very, very unusual recession in that it's been localized ... to an extraordinary extent. Right now business is really very good in a great many segments of the economy,\" he added. \"But there's still problems if you're in a few types of businesses that have been decimated such as international air travel or something of the sort.\"—The CEO of See's Candies, one of the longstanding companies owned by Berkshire Hathaway, told Yahoo Finance that the companyhas seen a strong rebound at the start of 2021. However, last year, business virtually ground to a halt.\"This has been the longest decade of my life. We've been through a lot. Last year – it's a tale of a couple of different quarters. The first quarter was tremendous,\" See's Candies CEO Pat Egan said in an interview with Yahoo Finance's Julia La Roche ahead of the start of Berkshire's annual shareholder meeting. \"In the middle of March, when this [pandemic] really hit, we shut down all of our stores in a span of five days. So about 245 stores we closed in a matter of days. And then about a week and a half later, we closed our e-commerce fulfillment center down in Southern California. So for a period of time there, we essentially completely stopped.\"\"We just said, we're not going to reopen stores or reopen plants until we can create a safe operating environment for our employees,\" he added. \"That took a while, and by the time we restored over the summer we saw customers coming back in. But for that period of time, it was pretty rough.\"See's Candies just completed its \"best first quarter ever\" at the start of 2021, Egan added.—Berkshire Hathawayreported first-quarter results Saturday morning, underscoring arebound in profits across the firm's businesses amid the COVID-19 recovery. Berkshire also reported that it conducted another $6.6 billion of stock buybacks, extending its ramped-up share repurchase program from 2020.Operating income during the first three months of the year increased to $7.02 billion, rising 19.5% compared to the $5.87 billion posted in the first quarter of 2020. Net earnings attributable to Berkshire shareholders swung back to a profit of $11.71 billion, compared to a loss of $49.75 billion in the same quarter last year.Consolidated shareholders' equity rose by $4.8 billion to $448 billion by the end of March compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.If you want to watch the full live video, please click here.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":193,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363695067,"gmtCreate":1614131701659,"gmtModify":1704888484347,"author":{"id":"3558097748623340","authorId":"3558097748623340","name":"LeeWan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88769849d29a340fce73355c249755a4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558097748623340","authorIdStr":"3558097748623340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>How much is your cost price?","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>How much is your cost price?","text":"$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$How much is your cost price?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/363695067","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":117,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3570056476084785","authorId":"3570056476084785","name":"大考拉","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/680804bde55dd7648cf7d5e37ea5408c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3570056476084785","authorIdStr":"3570056476084785"},"content":"I have already run away.
