In all three cases, UnitedHealth Group&#39;s purchase of Change Healthcare, AT&amp;T&#39;s bid for Time Warner and Grail&#39;s acquisition by Illumina, the buyers offered remedies aimed at blunting antitrust concerns.</p><p>Those cases share something else in common with the proposed Microsoft deal: in each instance, a company would merge with a supplier in a so-called &#34;vertical&#34; merger. Judges tend to view such deals more favorably than &#34;horizontal&#34; mergers, where a company seeks to scoop up a rival, experts said.</p><p>&#34;Vertical merger challenges are really difficult to win so it will be an uphill battle for the FTC,&#34; said Roger Alford, who teaches law at the University of Notre Dame.</p><p>Michael Pachter, an analyst with Wedbush Securities, said in a note that the FTC lawsuit gave Microsoft a roadmap for allaying antitrust concerns by offering further concessions: It could agree to offer Activision games to rivals for the same price, quality and release date as for Xbox.</p><h2>UNITED STATES NOT THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN</h2><p>But even if Microsoft can prevail over the FTC in a U.S. court, it still has to satisfy skeptical regulators in Europe.</p><p>&#34;The fact that the FTC is taking a run at the transaction&#34; will embolden the European Union, said William Kovacic, a former FTC chair who now teaches at the George Washington University Law School.</p><p>In its complaint, the FTC said that Microsoft had previously told European regulators that they had no incentive to make games from the 2021 ZeniMax acquisition exclusive but then did so with some games.</p><p>Reuters reported last month that Microsoft was expected to offer remedies to EU antitrust regulators in the coming weeks to stave off formal objections to the deal. The deadline for the European Commission to set out a formal list of competition concerns is next month.</p><p>&#34;There is a strong possibility that the EC will prohibit the merger and they don&#39;t have to go to court,&#34;

In all three cases, UnitedHealth Group's purchase of Change Healthcare, AT&T's bid for Time Warner and Grail's acquisition by Illumina, the buyers offered remedies aimed at blunting antitrust concerns.Those cases share something else in common with the proposed Microsoft deal: in each instance, a company would merge with a supplier in a so-called \"vertical\" merger. Judges tend to view such deals more favorably than \"horizontal\" mergers, where a company seeks to scoop up a rival, experts said.\"Vertical merger challenges are really difficult to win so it will be an uphill battle for the FTC,\" said Roger Alford, who teaches law at the University of Notre Dame.Michael Pachter, an analyst with Wedbush Securities, said in a note that the FTC lawsuit gave Microsoft a roadmap for allaying antitrust concerns by offering further concessions: It could agree to offer Activision games to rivals for the same price, quality and release date as for Xbox.UNITED STATES NOT THE ONLY GAME IN TOWNBut even if Microsoft can prevail over the FTC in a U.S. court, it still has to satisfy skeptical regulators in Europe.\"The fact that the FTC is taking a run at the transaction\" will embolden the European Union, said William Kovacic, a former FTC chair who now teaches at the George Washington University Law School.In its complaint, the FTC said that Microsoft had previously told European regulators that they had no incentive to make games from the 2021 ZeniMax acquisition exclusive but then did so with some games.Reuters reported last month that Microsoft was expected to offer remedies to EU antitrust regulators in the coming weeks to stave off formal objections to the deal. The deadline for the European Commission to set out a formal list of competition concerns is next month.\"There is a strong possibility that the EC will prohibit the merger and they don't have to go to court,\" said Seth Bloom of Bloom Strategic Counsel.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":1,"ATVI":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2411,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9920761747,"gmtCreate":1670550103090,"gmtModify":1676538391334,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9920761747","repostId":"1118029829","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118029829","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1670544999,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118029829?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-09 08:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chinese Stocks to Outperform Global Peers, Morgan Stanley Says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118029829","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Chinese equities will outperform the broad emerging markets and even their global peers as Beijing’s","content":"<div>\n<p>Chinese equities will outperform the broad emerging markets and even their global peers as Beijing’s decisive moves toward reopening continue to help sentiment recover, according to Morgan Stanley.“We...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-12-08/morgan-stanley-says-china-stocks-to-outperform-global-peers\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Brands a top pick in 2023</h2><p>Cowen said the owner of brands such as Taco Bell and KFC is attractive heading into 2023.</p><blockquote>“In our view,YUM’s diversified, asset-light business model positions the stock favorably as inflation remains elevated.”</blockquote><h2>BTIG upgrades Domino’s to buy from hold</h2><p>BTIG said in its upgrade of Domino’s that it sees inflation moderating.</p><blockquote>“Upgrading to Buy with $460 Price Target; Additional Pricing, Moderating Inflation, and Organic Labor Improvements Make Us More Bullish.”</blockquote><h2>Cowen names SolarEdge a top pick in 2023</h2><p>Cowen said the solar company is well positioned heading into 2023.</p><blockquote>“SEDG is well positioned to benefit from secular solar demand driven by policy and higher electricity rates.”</blockquote><h2>JPMorgan upgrades Murphy oil to overweight from neutral</h2><p>JPMorgan said the stock is a “relative winner.”</p><blockquote>“In a macro setting with upside risk to oil prices, but heightened execution concerns for U.S. shale-levered companies, we think E&amp;Ps with a higher mix of conventional assets (international, deepwater, oil sands) could be relative winners.”</blockquote><h2>Citi initiates Alaska Airlines as buy and JetBlue as neutral</h2><p>Citi initiated coverage of Alaska and said it likes the company’s strong pricing. The firm also initiated JetBlue and said it’s concerned about the company’s merger with Spirit.</p><blockquote>“The carrier’s strong pricing, traffic flow from its partner airlines, and re-fleeting look attractive. These attributes could help Alaska Air offset the aforementioned headwinds. ... Separately, JetBlue faces unknown operational and regulatory-type repercussions from potential antitrust remedies, associated with the carrier’s efforts to acquire Spirit Airlines.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley upgrades United Airlines to overweight from equal weight and names Delta a top pick in 2023</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said it sees a “bullish” air travel outlook in 2023.</p><blockquote>“We remain bullish on the Air travel outlook for the third year in a row but our order of preference again changes slightly. Legacies move to the top of our preference list -DALis our new Top Pick, we upgradeUALto OW (up to #3 in our order of preference), and we remain EW AAL (#7).”</blockquote><h2>JPMorgan reiterates Apple as overweight</h2><p>JPMorgan said Apple’s iPhone supply chain challenges appear to be moderating.</p><blockquote>“In Week 13 of our Apple Product Availability Tracker, supply appears to continue to improve, with lead times for the iPhone Pro models moderating across all regions, indicating again that Apple is cycling past the worst and making progress in relation to supply challenges.”</blockquote><h2>JPMorgan reiterates Netflix as overweight</h2><p>JPMorgan said it sees a “heavily backend-weighted quarter” for Netflix.</p><blockquote>“We believeNFLXis a key beneficiary and driver of the ongoing disruption of linear TV, with the company’s content performing well globally and driving a virtuous circle of strong subscriber growth, more revenue, and growing profit.”</blockquote><h2>Truist upgrades MGM to buy from hold</h2><p>Truist said it sees the casino stock outperforming in 2023.</p><blockquote>“While we’ve historically been more cautious on bear-case macro risks to the Strip and destination markets, we would expectMGMto see relative outperformance in 2023 on the Strip’s strong event calendar and returning midweek business travel.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley initiates Marriott as overweight</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said it likes how the hotel chain has transformed its business and that it sees a “further re-rating.”</p><blockquote>“Marriott (MAR, 15% Upside): From beta bellwether to acyclical alpha.”</blockquote><h2>Oppenheimer reiterates Tesla as outperform</h2><p>Oppenheimer said Tesla’s long waited semi truck is a “watershed moment.”</p><blockquote>“We view TSLA’s demonstration of its 500-mile range with full payload as a watershed moment for EVs in the Class 8 space.”</blockquote><h2>Bank of America reiterates Deckers as buy</h2><p>Bank of America said channel checks look bullish on Deckers’ Hoka brand shoes.</p><blockquote>“We came away impressed with management’s laser focus on scaling the brand in a controlled manner (not opening distribution too wide). Retailer commentary was bullish on trends at HOKA, particularly recent momentum with the non-running community (work professionals, teens, elderly).”</blockquote><h2>Deutsche Bank downgrades Starbucks to hold from buy</h2><p>Deutsche downgraded the coffee giant mainly on valuation.</p><blockquote>“On the back of our Limited Service Restaurant work published last week and following a ‘second pass’ at the model postSBUX’sexcellent results in early November, we are moving our rating on SBUX to Hold, down from our previous rating of Buy. Overall, this is a Risk Reward and Valuation call, and there is not much more to it than that.”</blockquote><h2>Jefferies reiterates Amazon and Etsy as buy</h2><p>Jefferies said Amazon and Etsy will be winners this holiday shopping season.</p><blockquote>“Our proprietary U.S. survey shows 42% of consumers plan to spend more online this year, which is four times greater than the 11% who plan to spend less. We believe our e-commerce coverage (AMZN, ETSY, EBAY) should benefit from durable ecommerce trends in the U.S., but expect int’l to be a drag on Q4 results.”</blockquote><h2>MoffettNathanson reiterates Disney as outperform</h2><p>Moffett said it’s standing by its outperform rating on the stock with greater confidence in the company now that Robert Iger has returned as CEO.</p><blockquote>“In short, Disney has badly underperformed our long-term forecast as DTC, despite in-line revenues results, generated -$2.4 billion in higher FY 2022 losses vs. what we expected back in Iger’s last days.”</blockquote><h2>Wells Fargo names Royal Caribbean as a top 2023 pick</h2><p>Wells named the cruise company as a top idea for 2023 and says it likes Royal Caribbean’s balance sheet.</p><blockquote>“RCL is our top cruise pick for 2023, reflecting its relatively better balance sheet/more straight forward deleveraging path, track record of execution and growing EBITDA/ALBD, and reasonable pricing/cost expectations.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley downgrades Silvergate to underweight from equal weight</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said in its downgrade of the crypto bank that it sees too many headwinds due to the FTX collapse.</p><blockquote>“Silvergate Capital(SI): The ongoing stress in the crypto ecosystem post the FTX collapse drives significant uncertainty on deposit flows at SI in the near term.”</blockquote><h2>UBS reiterates Costco as buy</h2><p>UBS said Costco is a holiday winner.</p><blockquote>“Altogether, we think COST has every right to win this holiday season &amp; beyond.”</blockquote><h2>Atlantic Equities reiterates Coinbase as neutral</h2><p>Atlantic Equities said it’s sticking with his neutral rating on the stock, but that it thinks the crypto company is well-positioned to survive any crypto controversies.</p><blockquote>“We believe Coinbase is well-positioned to both survive and benefit from these events, but the overwhelming headwinds from a prolonged crypto winter cause us to lower our forward estimates significantly.”</blockquote></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The firm also initiated JetBlue and said it’s concerned about the company’s merger with Spirit.</p><blockquote>“The carrier’s strong pricing, traffic flow from its partner airlines, and re-fleeting look attractive. These attributes could help Alaska Air offset the aforementioned headwinds. ... Separately, JetBlue faces unknown operational and regulatory-type repercussions from potential antitrust remedies, associated with the carrier’s efforts to acquire Spirit Airlines.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley upgrades United Airlines to overweight from equal weight and names Delta a top pick in 2023</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said it sees a “bullish” air travel outlook in 2023.</p><blockquote>“We remain bullish on the Air travel outlook for the third year in a row but our order of preference again changes slightly. Legacies move to the top of our preference list -DALis our new Top Pick, we upgradeUALto OW (up to #3 in our order of preference), and we remain EW AAL (#7).”</blockquote><h2>JPMorgan reiterates Apple as overweight</h2><p>JPMorgan said Apple’s iPhone supply chain challenges appear to be moderating.</p><blockquote>“In Week 13 of our Apple Product Availability Tracker, supply appears to continue to improve, with lead times for the iPhone Pro models moderating across all regions, indicating again that Apple is cycling past the worst and making progress in relation to supply challenges.”</blockquote><h2>JPMorgan reiterates Netflix as overweight</h2><p>JPMorgan said it sees a “heavily backend-weighted quarter” for Netflix.</p><blockquote>“We believeNFLXis a key beneficiary and driver of the ongoing disruption of linear TV, with the company’s content performing well globally and driving a virtuous circle of strong subscriber growth, more revenue, and growing profit.”</blockquote><h2>Truist upgrades MGM to buy from hold</h2><p>Truist said it sees the casino stock outperforming in 2023.</p><blockquote>“While we’ve historically been more cautious on bear-case macro risks to the Strip and destination markets, we would expectMGMto see relative outperformance in 2023 on the Strip’s strong event calendar and returning midweek business travel.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley initiates Marriott as overweight</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said it likes how the hotel chain has transformed its business and that it sees a “further re-rating.”</p><blockquote>“Marriott (MAR, 15% Upside): From beta bellwether to acyclical alpha.”</blockquote><h2>Oppenheimer reiterates Tesla as outperform</h2><p>Oppenheimer said Tesla’s long waited semi truck is a “watershed moment.”</p><blockquote>“We view TSLA’s demonstration of its 500-mile range with full payload as a watershed moment for EVs in the Class 8 space.”</blockquote><h2>Bank of America reiterates Deckers as buy</h2><p>Bank of America said channel checks look bullish on Deckers’ Hoka brand shoes.</p><blockquote>“We came away impressed with management’s laser focus on scaling the brand in a controlled manner (not opening distribution too wide). Retailer commentary was bullish on trends at HOKA, particularly recent momentum with the non-running community (work professionals, teens, elderly).”</blockquote><h2>Deutsche Bank downgrades Starbucks to hold from buy</h2><p>Deutsche downgraded the coffee giant mainly on valuation.</p><blockquote>“On the back of our Limited Service Restaurant work published last week and following a ‘second pass’ at the model postSBUX’sexcellent results in early November, we are moving our rating on SBUX to Hold, down from our previous rating of Buy. Overall, this is a Risk Reward and Valuation call, and there is not much more to it than that.”</blockquote><h2>Jefferies reiterates Amazon and Etsy as buy</h2><p>Jefferies said Amazon and Etsy will be winners this holiday shopping season.</p><blockquote>“Our proprietary U.S. survey shows 42% of consumers plan to spend more online this year, which is four times greater than the 11% who plan to spend less. We believe our e-commerce coverage (AMZN, ETSY, EBAY) should benefit from durable ecommerce trends in the U.S., but expect int’l to be a drag on Q4 results.”</blockquote><h2>MoffettNathanson reiterates Disney as outperform</h2><p>Moffett said it’s standing by its outperform rating on the stock with greater confidence in the company now that Robert Iger has returned as CEO.</p><blockquote>“In short, Disney has badly underperformed our long-term forecast as DTC, despite in-line revenues results, generated -$2.4 billion in higher FY 2022 losses vs. what we expected back in Iger’s last days.”</blockquote><h2>Wells Fargo names Royal Caribbean as a top 2023 pick</h2><p>Wells named the cruise company as a top idea for 2023 and says it likes Royal Caribbean’s balance sheet.</p><blockquote>“RCL is our top cruise pick for 2023, reflecting its relatively better balance sheet/more straight forward deleveraging path, track record of execution and growing EBITDA/ALBD, and reasonable pricing/cost expectations.”</blockquote><h2>Morgan Stanley downgrades Silvergate to underweight from equal weight</h2><p>Morgan Stanley said in its downgrade of the crypto bank that it sees too many headwinds due to the FTX collapse.</p><blockquote>“Silvergate Capital(SI): The ongoing stress in the crypto ecosystem post the FTX collapse drives significant uncertainty on deposit flows at SI in the near term.”</blockquote><h2>UBS reiterates Costco as buy</h2><p>UBS said Costco is a holiday winner.</p><blockquote>“Altogether, we think COST has every right to win this holiday season &amp; beyond.”</blockquote><h2>Atlantic Equities reiterates Coinbase as neutral</h2><p>Atlantic Equities said it’s sticking with his neutral rating on the stock, but that it thinks the crypto company is well-positioned to survive any crypto controversies.</p><blockquote>“We believe Coinbase is well-positioned to both survive and benefit from these events, but the overwhelming headwinds from a prolonged crypto winter cause us to lower our forward estimates significantly.”</blockquote></body></html>\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MGM":"美高梅","DPZ":"达美乐比萨","MUR":"墨菲石油","COST":"好市多","SBUX":"星巴克","TSLA":"特斯拉","JBLU":"捷蓝航空","COIN":"Coinbase Global, Inc.","RCL":"皇家加勒比邮轮","DAL":"达美航空","ETSY":"Etsy, Inc.","NFLX":"奈飞","DECK":"Deckers Outdoor Corporation","YUM":"Yum Brands","SEDG":"SolarEdge Technologies, Inc.","MAR":"万豪酒店","DIS":"迪士尼","AMZN":"亚马逊","UAL":"联合大陆航空","SI":"Shoulder Innovations, Inc.","ALK":"阿拉斯加航空集团有限公司"},"source_url":"","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1176644214","content_text":"Here are Monday’s biggest calls on Wall Street:Cowen names Yum!

Within that article, I explained why Microsoft is my largest personal holding and I discussed a few of its largest growth drivers. This time, I will take a more in-depth look into its growth opportunity in gaming as Microsoft is one of the largest players in the gaming industry through its Xbox platform.</p><p>The Activision (ATVI) deal is still pending and is seeing a lot of scrutiny from regulators in both the UK and the US. The question remains whether the acquisition will be given the green light by regulators. Microsoft remains confident that the deal will be permitted to go on and is cooperating with regulators to make sure that misconceptions are taken away. The Activision deal, when approved, will open Microsoft up to several growth opportunities which are the mobile gaming market and a strong position in the cloud gaming market.</p><p>General gaming market growth will be a tailwind for Microsoft no matter the outcome of the Activision acquisition. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR above 13% until 2028 and will be a growth driver for Microsoft as it already has a strong position in the gaming industry through its Xbox platform. Microsoft continues to expand its cloud gaming offering through its Xbox game pass and looks well-positioned to benefit from a fast-growing cloud gaming market with its expertise in cloud computing.</p><p>Near-term there seems to be some weakness in the gaming market as consumer spending is slowing down and the industry is early cyclical. Weakness is witnessed within other gaming companies such as Nvidia (NVDA) and Sony (SONY), but Microsoft kept growing over the latest quarter, although at a slower pace. Despite the near-term weakness, I remain to believe that the long-term growth trend is still very much intact and will be a growth driver for Microsoft.</p><p>Despite a small increase in valuation and a 10% increase in share price ever since my previous article, I still believe the current valuation is close to fair value and the stock remains a <b>strong buy</b> on the strong growth potential and incredible financials.</p><h2>Sector growth</h2><p>As Microsoft is one of the biggest players in the gaming industry, it is to no one&#39;s surprise that this is also a big opportunity when growth for the gaming industry is expected to be above 13% CAGR for the next six years. According to Business Fortune Insights, the gaming market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.2% until 2028. The total market size will come in at $545.98 billion by then. In the console market, Microsoft currently holds a market share of 20% and is expected to improve this to 27% by 2026. This general growth of the market and increase in market share will allow Microsoft to see strong growth over the next decade within its gaming division. I believe the gaming division will grow to be a larger part of Microsoft as it is one of the faster-growing industries in which Microsoft is active, only trailing cloud computing growth. If we look at Microsoft&#39;s third quarter results, we can see that revenue generated by the gaming division was a little over $3.5 billion and this represented approximately 7% of total revenue for the quarter. There is a lot of upside for the gaming division, by innovation and cloud gaming execution, without the Activision acquisition.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/413130763143e9ad5c37dc06f34f9d21\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>DFC Intelligence</p><h2>Activision Blizzard acquisition</h2><p>At the start of the year, Microsoft announced its acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Yet, the acquisition still is not completed as regulators in the US, Europe, UK, and China continue to review the purchase. As a result, Microsoft is still awaiting regulatory approval. Most recently, Politico reported that they expect the FED to file an antitrust lawsuit to block the $69 billion acquisition. This seems to be building on a large number of misconceptions as the largest part of Activision&#39;s revenue is thanks to mobile gaming in which Microsoft currently has little to no exposure. Of course, there are worries, mainly from Sony, that Microsoft is going to make blockbuster console games such as Call of Duty an Xbox exclusive and therefore making the PlayStation console from Sony less attractive to a large number of console gamers. Yet, Microsoft promised that it will not make it an Xbox exclusive as this is not their motivation to buy Activision. For that reason, I do not see how this would give Microsoft any sort of an unfair boost in the video game market as it would not even be the largest player, remaining behind Japanese Sony and Chinese Tencent. This is what Microsoft spokesman David Cuddy said about this:</p><blockquote>Microsoft is prepared to address the concerns of regulators, including the FTC, and Sony to ensure the deal closes with confidence. We&#39;ll still trail Sony and Tencent in the market after the deal closes, and together Activision and Xbox will benefit gamers and developers and make the industry more competitive.</blockquote><p>I believe Microsoft will be having a hard time getting the acquisition through as many regulators are afraid of the sheer strength of Microsoft across different industries. Maybe the direct unfair position in the gaming industry will not be the problem (as there seems to be none), but the strength of Microsoft, which allows it to make $70 billion acquisitions without any issues, is the biggest fear of regulators as it allows Microsoft to expand into any industry it wants by buying the largest players.</p><p>Microsoft seems to be willing to cooperate with regulators to get the deal through and I remain confident they will, but the chance remains that the FED, or any other regulator, will file an antitrust lawsuit which will end the chances of the acquisition. I do not believe that a rejection of the acquisition will be a game-changer for Microsoft within its gaming segment. Even more, I don&#39;t even know whether I believe Activision Blizzard is worth the price tag for Microsoft. Microsoft already has a strong position in the gaming industry and without Activision still has plenty of growth opportunities. So, what would the Activision acquisition bring to the table for Microsoft? Well, there are three main benefits of owning Activision, and these are getting access to its large customer base, owning a strong game development company to create more Xbox exclusives for subscription services, and if offers an inside into the fast-growing and dominant mobile gaming industry.</p><p>The acquisition of Activision will give Microsoft access to the 40 million monthly active users playing Activision games and pull them towards its gaming platforms and subscriptions by offering Microsoft exclusive games or exclusive extras. Xbox is investing heavily in its cloud gaming service which it launched in 2020. Later in this article, I will go into more detail regarding the cloud gaming opportunity, but the acquisition allows Microsoft to include Activision games in its cloud gaming library without having to pay additional fees. In addition to this, and ideally, Microsoft would want to make current and future games an Xbox exclusive just as Sony does with its games produced by Sony Studios like Spiderman: Miles Morales or The Last of Us.</p><p>Right now, there is a split in gamers since you can either be a PlayStation gamer or an Xbox gamer (or PC). Both are great platforms, but Sony has the upper hand as Microsoft made some wrong choices in the past. Cloud gaming offers a new sort of gaming and allows gamers to switch consoles since console hardware will not be crucial to be owned in the future as you will be able to play your games on any device. Catching a larger amount of the gaming audience through better service, a larger game library with blockbuster titles, and superior technology and innovation will give you the upper hand and can get Microsoft on top of Sony. The Activision acquisition can play an important role in gaining this advantage.</p><p>Finally, the acquisition will gain Microsoft a strong position in the mobile gaming industry in which it now has little to no exposure. The fastest-growing segment within the gaming industry is mobile gaming. According to Straits Research, the mobile gaming market is expected to grow at a 12.3% CAGR until 2030 and will reach a market size of $338 billion from $119 billion today. The Indian gaming market is the fastest growing of all and Call of Duty and Candy Crush, two games owned by Activision, are among the top 10 most-played games in India. The Indian market is home to over 430 million gamers and is growing by 35-40% a year, with mobile gaming accounting for 90% of this growth.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4fdca2985a16ddfc4014b010ba5f1d5\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Xbox + Activision games (Microsoft)</p><h2>Cloud gaming</h2><p>Microsoft is not focused on platform gaming, but on cloud gaming. Microsoft wants to enable people to play games anywhere and on any device. Microsoft is building on this with its Xbox Game Pass, which is a monthly subscription enabling you to play every selected game for free on supported devices. These differ from Xbox hardware to PC and mobile devices.</p><p>Cloud gaming enables users to play their favorite games without owning the necessary hardware like the Xbox. Instead, the games are being played in one of the many powerful cloud servers of Google (GOOGL), Microsoft, or AWS (AMZN). This is then streamed to your device of choice. This enables users to play their games where and whenever they want without needing the hardware. This allows you to play the most intense graphical games on your simple smartphone. Microsoft offers this cloud gaming service through its Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Microsoft owns the cloud servers&#39; software and hardware to realize this on a huge scale, and owns the gaming platform with Xbox, which positions them perfectly. When using a cloud gaming subscription from Microsoft, you will not need to buy your own games as it comes with a game library with games you can play for free whenever and wherever you want. Therefore, the Activision acquisition is valuable for the cloud gaming opportunity as Activision is a great video game builder and produced many blockbusters in the past that it can involve in its cloud gaming platform. There is a good chance that Microsoft will continue to keep games such as Call of Duty available on PlayStation, but for cloud gaming, it will only be available on Xbox. Microsoft is in a great position to benefit from the shift from traditional console gaming to cloud gaming thanks to its technical expertise in the cloud and already popular gaming platform. The cloud gaming market is expected to grow at a 42.5% CAGR until 2028 and reach a market size of $13.3 billion.</p><h2>Risks and valuation</h2><p>The main risk seems to be regulatory scrutiny over its acquisition of Activision which could result in a blow-up of the deal. This would make the growth case more difficult for Microsoft but would leave it with a large amount of cash to make multiple smaller acquisitions in the industry. Yet, it would be a blow for Microsoft if the acquisition would not be completed. As I mentioned before in this article, I do believe Microsoft can still grow its business driven by other growth factors.</p><p>Also, we have seen so far this year that the gaming market is seeing negative numbers as reflected by the financial results of Nvidia and Sony. Sony mentioned that it saw less activity on its PlayStation platform and less spending by consumers. Nvidia saw a drop of over 50% in gaming revenue. The gaming market is early cyclical and might very well have bottomed already, but there is a significant chance that more downside is still to come as consumers lower their spending on discretionary goods. As a result, gaming growth may slow down for Microsoft and even turn negative in the short term, but as a long-term investor, this is absolutely nothing to worry about as the long-term growth will remain very much intact for the gaming industry.</p><p>Microsoft is currently valued at a forward P/E of close to 26 and is therefore still 11% undervalued compared to its 5-year average. Analysts are projecting growth to slow this year but expect growth to speed up again the three years after with close to 20% growth per year. I think this is a fair estimate by analysts and I agree with their growth outlook for Microsoft. I believe Microsoft is close to fair value right now.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Scrutiny over the Activision acquisition remains a difficult one to judge as it seems less likely every week that the acquisition will be approved. Microsoft continues to do everything in its power to cooperate with the regulators, but the question will be whether it is enough. The acquisition will open a lot of new doors for Microsoft, but I don&#39;t believe it is a make-it-or-break-it situation as Microsoft already has a strong position and plenty of other opportunities in the gaming market. Growth in the gaming segment will not depend on just this acquisition. Cloud gaming is a large future opportunity on which Microsoft is acting well so far. The general growth of the gaming market will be an additional driver of growth as Microsoft already holds a strong market position through its Xbox platform.</p><p>In my previous article, I already stated that Microsoft was my highest conviction opportunity on the market today and my position did not change. I remain to be buy rated on Microsoft despite the recent increase in share price. The current valuation is still attractive when considering the strong market position, incredible balance sheet and cash generating, and future growth potential.</p><p>I rate Microsoft a <b>Strong Buy</b> and believe gaming will be a growth driver going forward, despite near-term industry weakness. Buy this incredible company on current weakness.</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>Microsoft: Gaming Will Likely Be A Growth Driver Going Forward</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\">\nMicrosoft: Gaming Will Likely Be A Growth Driver Going Forward\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-27 10:21 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4560603-microsoft-gaming-growth-driver-going-forward><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investment thesisMicrosoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is my highest conviction stock, and I wrote about this in my initial coverage of Microsoft stock, which I wrote over a month ago.

The question remains whether the acquisition will be given the green light by regulators.

Buy this incredible company on current weakness.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4199,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9963929086,"gmtCreate":1668569482646,"gmtModify":1676538077993,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Noted","listText":"Noted","text":"Noted","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9963929086","repostId":"2283249519","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3204,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9969712398,"gmtCreate":1668522252815,"gmtModify":1676538070124,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9969712398","repostId":"1106397932","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106397932","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1668508576,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106397932?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-15 18:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Stock Futures Lifted By Fed Pivot Hopes Ahead of Producer-Price Data","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106397932","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Bulls piled back into global stock markets, encouraged by an easing in Sino-US tensions and growing ","content":"<div>\n<p>Bulls piled back into global stock markets, encouraged by an easing in Sino-US tensions and growing confidence that the Federal Reserve will be able to slow its rate hiking pace.As Treasury yields and...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-11-14/asia-stocks-set-for-mixed-open-ahead-of-china-data-markets-wrap?srnd=markets-vp\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Chipmakers Advanced Micro Devices Inc., Nvidia Corp. and Intel Corp. rose between 1.3%-2% in US premarket trading, while Tesla Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Apple Inc., and Alphabet Inc. all added about 1% each.Europe’s Stoxx 600 index fluctuated just above flat, though the market is close to a three-month high and Germany’s Dax index is on the cusp of a technical bull-market, having narrowly missed that milestone on Monday. In Asia, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng benchmark rose above that threshold, gaining as much as 4.2%.Markets have turned risk-on in recent days, trading off a softer-than-expected US data print that many reckon will allow the Fed to raise rates in 50 basis-point increment, after three 75 basis-point hikes. That view was encouraged by Vice Chair Lael Brainard who said on Monday it would probably be “appropriate soon to move to a slower pace of increases.”“The issue the market has to wrestle with is how long is the Fed going to keep rates at that level and I think there is some positive sentiment out there that the Fed is going to pivot sometime in 2023,” Peter Kraus, Chairman and CEO at Aperture Investors, told Bloomberg Television.Chinese technology stocks were among the top contributors to gains in the MSCI Asia Pacific Index. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. surged as much as 9.4% after Warren Buffett took a stake of about $5 billion in the chipmaker.On currency markets, the dollar fell against a basket of currencies, touching its lowest since August 18, while 10-year Treasury yields also slipped. Data showing Japan’s economy unexpectedly shrank in the third quarter, as well as softer- than-expected Chinese retail sales figures, highlighted risks for global growth.Bank of America’s global fund manager survey for November showed sentiment remains “uber-bearish,” with investors still crowded into the dollar and cash, while tech stocks remain unpopular.“My biggest concern is the market gets ahead of itself and we get into a situation where the Fed feels it needs to rein in, and tighten more than it otherwise would have, as markets became too frothy,” Kristina Hooper, chief global strategist at Invesco said on Bloomberg Radio.Concerns over the near-term demand outlook hit oil prices, taking US crude futures down 2% on the day.Key events this week:Former US President Donald Trump plans to make an announcement, TuesdayUS empire manufacturing, PPI, TuesdayUS business inventories, cross-border investment, retail sales, industrial production, WednesdayFed’s John Williams, Lael Brainard and SEC Chair Gary Gensler speak, WednesdayECB President Christine Lagarde speaks, WednesdayEurozone CPI, ThursdayUS housing starts, initial jobless claims, ThursdayFed’s Neel Kashkari, Loretta Mester speak, ThursdayUS Conference Board leading index, existing home sales, FridaySome of the main moves in markets:StocksThe Stoxx Europe 600 was little changed as of 10:05 a.m. London timeFutures on the S&P 500 rose 0.8%Futures on the Nasdaq 100 rose 1.2%Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.5%The MSCI Asia Pacific Index rose 2%The MSCI Emerging Markets Index rose 2.2%CurrenciesThe Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index fell 0.5%The euro rose 0.8% to $1.0406The Japanese yen rose 0.5% to 139.15 per dollarThe offshore yuan was little changed at 7.0358 per dollarThe British pound rose 0.7% to $1.1833CryptocurrenciesBitcoin rose 2.6% to $16,806.85Ether rose 2.8% to $1,260.7BondsThe yield on 10-year Treasuries declined four basis points to 3.81%Germany’s 10-year yield declined four basis points to 2.11%Britain’s 10-year yield was little changed at 3.36%CommoditiesBrent crude fell 1% to $92.23 a barrelSpot gold rose 0.3% to $1,777.05 an ounceVolatilityVIX slid 0.72% to 23.56VIXmain slid 2.09% to 24.85","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"ESmain":0.9,"GCmain":0.9,"VIX":0.9,"CLmain":0.9,"NQmain":0.9,"YMmain":0.9,"BZmain":0.9,"VIXmain":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":941,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9969339662,"gmtCreate":1668347498556,"gmtModify":1676538043585,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9969339662","repostId":"2282510514","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2282510514","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1668300238,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2282510514?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-13 08:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks You'll Be Glad You Bought at These Prices","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2282510514","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A slumped stock market has produced many great buying opportunities among growth stocks.","content":"<div>\n<p>When the stock market falls sharply, the stocks of many great companies often go on sale.

That has happened in spades lately. The stock market, as measured by the S&P 500, was recently down about 21% from its 52-week high -- while many stocks have seen their shares implode by 50%, 75%, and perhaps even more.Here are three companies in which you might want to invest, now that their stocks are at much lower levels than they have been in quite a while.1. Nike Nike is \"the world's leading designer, marketer and distributor of authentic athletic footwear, apparel, equipment and accessories for a wide variety of sports and fitness activities.\" That's no surprise to most of us. You might be surprised to learn that the venerable Converse brand is now part of Nike, though.Nike is facing competition from companies such as Adidas and New Balance, and is challenged by supply chain issues, as are many other businesses. And sales in a key market, China, are pressured due to pandemic lockdowns. But Nike still has an extremely valuable brand -- ranked 10th in the world with an estimated value of $41 billion, per the folks at Interbrand.Investors balked at Nike's first-quarter report, which revealed inventory piling up. But the report was not a total bust, with both revenue and earnings exceeding analyst expectations. Nike's shares have slumped some 47% from their 52-week high, and with a recent price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 27, considerably less than the five-year average of 47, the stock is more attractively priced than it was months ago.till, that's not a bargain-basement price, so if you believe in Nike's growth potential, you might buy into it incrementally over time, hoping for some lower entry points. Or you might just add it to your watch list, waiting for a more enticing time to \"just do it\" and buy.2. ComcastComcast has grown into a massive media and technology company -- focused primarily on connectivity, aggregation, and streaming and with a recent market value topping $135 billion. You may not realize it, but its businesses and brands include Xfinity, Comcast Business, Sky, Universal Filmed Entertainment Group, Universal Studio Group, Sky Studios, the NBC and Telemundo broadcast networks, multiple cable networks, Peacock, NBCUniversal News Group, NBC Sports, Sky News, and Sky Sports -- not to mention Universal Parks and Resorts.Comcast's recently reported third quarter featured a 1.5% drop in revenue year over year. But free cash flow grew by 4.7%, while adjusted net income rose 4.5% and net cash from operating activities jumped 13.9%. The company is investing in growing its Peacock streaming service, and its theme parks have been doing well.Some worry about slowing growth in broadband and people continuing to cut the cable in favor of streaming services, but others see opportunity if Comcast sheds some businesses and invests in faster-growing ones, such as wireless and theme parks.Comcast's stock was recently down 42% from its 52-week high, which pushed its forward-looking P/E ratio down to 8.2 from its five-year average of 14.5. And as always happens, when a stock price falls, a dividend yield rises -- and Comcast stock was recently yielding a solid 3.5%.3. AlphabetAlphabet is a widely admired powerhouse, with a recent market value topping $1.1 trillion and a brand ranked No. 4 in the world (by Interbrand) and valued at nearly $252 billion. That hasn't been enough to keep its stock afloat in these volatile days, though. Alphabet's shares were recently down almost 42% from their 52-week high, presenting an attractive entry point.Remember that Alphabet is much more than just the dominant Google search engine. Its universe includes the very widely used Android mobile operating system, along with YouTube, and Google Cloud. YouTube alone is a very valuable property, with users reportedly watching more than a billion hours of content daily and YouTube advertising recently delivering 10% of total revenue. Alphabet also owns the Google Play app store, smart thermostat maker Nest, and Fitbit, among other things. Google advertising still generates most of its revenue, though -- fully 79% in its third quarter of 2022.CEO Sundar Pichai recently noted: \"We're sharpening our focus on a clear set of product and business priorities.

You feel invincible in a bull market, but in a bear market you feel like you'll never make money again. It's been a long fall for many growth stocks in 2022, but keep your head up. Historically, Wall Street has always recovered, and there isn't a reason why this would be any different.The market will probably rebound at some point, so now is a great time to start thinking about your top investment ideas for 2023. Stocks like Shopify, Workday, and Sea Limited were losers in 2022, but here's why they could be big winners in 2023 and beyond.Stock up on this e-commerce stockWill Healy (Shopify): Most long-term Shopify investors probably want to forget 2022. This time last year, it had flirted with all-time highs. However, the bear market hit this one-time high-flyer hard. Since reaching its high, Shopify has lost almost 80% of its value.Admittedly, the stock price had probably moved ahead of its growth rate. Also, e-commerce growth slowed as consumers emerged from lockdowns, making its price unsustainable. However, the case for Shopify stock may have improved during that time from a competitive standpoint. It has built an ecosystem to address the direct needs (and many of the indirect needs) of e-commerce businesses.Shopify Plus, its software package designed to attract large and high-growth businesses, continues to gain traction. On the Q3 2022 earnings call, Shopify President Harley Finkelstein revealed that Plus claimed 35% of all point-of-sale pro sales in Q3, up from 14% in the year-ago quarter.Additionally, the Shopify Fulfillment Network (SFN) facilitates order fulfillment and returns for customers. With Shopify's purchase of Deliverr complete, it can now serve as a one-stop shop for all logistics needs. The fact that Amazon is its only competitor in this area will help Shopify stand out above software-oriented peers.Still, Shopify has returned to losses as the cost of building the fulfillment network weighs on the bottom line. Also, while Q3 revenue of $1.4 billion rose 22%, that lagged the three-year compound annual growth rate for revenue of 52%.Nonetheless, for the remainder of 2022, the company predicted slowing operating expense growth and a higher percentage of merchant solutions revenue. Merchant solutions, the segment that includes SFN and other business management services, accounted for 72% of company revenue in Q3. Shopify's revenue also rose 26% year over year, beating the overall average.Moreover, its stock sells for just 9 times sales, a massive reduction from the 45 P/S ratio it reached one year ago. With the company positioned for increased growth, Shopify stock should experience a recovery in 2023.Shares of this workforce management company could bounce back in 2023Jake Lerch (Workday): If you think 2023 can be a bounce-back year for the stock market (and I do), it's worth pondering: Which stocks would benefit the most? For me, Workday is a name that jumps off the page.The company is a leading provider of cloud-based workplace solutions. It serves over 50% of Fortune 500 companies, supplying cloud enterprise solutions for human resources, financial planning, and analytics.Like many tech stocks, Workday has been hit hard in 2022, with its share price falling 48% year to date. However, the company's fundamentals remain solid. Workday reported strong second-quarter earnings back in August and is due to report third-quarter earnings in mid-November.Revenue continues to grow over 20% on a year-over-year basis and now stands at $5.7 billion over the last 12 months. Of that $5.7 billion, $5 billion comes from subscription revenue. What's more, back in August, management reiterated its long-term goal to reach $10 billion in annual sales.WDAY data by YChartsWorkday continues to grow its customer base and has recently achieved FedRAMP-authorized status, meaning the company can now sell its products to U.S. government agencies.It all adds up to a great environment for Workday in 2023 -- if the broader economy can get its act together. Next year the Federal Reserve is likely to pivot away from the massive interest rate hikes that have become the norm in 2022. Meanwhile, double-digit inflation will eventually moderate, relieving some pressure that has held back tech stocks this year.And that's why I think Workday is poised to benefit. It's a name investors should get to know now -- before next year's catalysts take its stock significantly higher.This internet company is cutting costs and gearing up for a big 2023Justin Pope (Sea Limited): E-commerce, payments, and gaming company Sea Limited was among the big winners during the pandemic, soaring to a peak of roughly 1,000% from its pre-pandemic share price. But as they say, easy come, easy go. The stock has given up virtually all of those gains throughout 2022. Wall Street can be irrational sometimes, which means it can overshoot to both the upside and downside.You saw the example of the upside when the stock ballooned to a price-to-sales ratio (P/S) of 30, a valuation showing how much the share price outran the business's growth during the pandemic. But today, you're seeing the opposite: The stock is trading at its lowest valuation ever, which might give someone the impression that Sea Limited is a struggling company.SE PS Ratio data by YChartsHowever, the data primarily disputes that. Sea Limited is generating more revenue than ever. The business saw a surge of growth during the pandemic, including 158% year-over-year revenue growth in Q2 of last year. But instead of declining after such a big leap, revenue increased another 29% in the second quarter of this year. Some may frown at what's technically a slower growth rate, but it signals that the COVID-19 boost was no fluke. One might even see growth pick back up next year as those tough growth comparables from 2021 pass.The company isn't profitable, but invests heavily to fund growth. Fortunately, management has recognized the need to cut back some and did pull back on some of its expansion efforts in Latin America. Sea Limited is well funded, with $7.8 billion in cash, so the company is on solid financial footing.Sea's seen some bumps in the road, but the car is still on the tracks. Investors can revisit this thought if the company burns through its cash reserves without making considerable progress toward turning a profit. It burned $1.4 billion over the past year, so that $7.4 billion should buy it time. Assuming Sea Limited can continue growing while it reduces its cash burn, the dire valuation leaves room for an upside move once market sentiment improves.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"WDAY":0.9,"SE":0.9,"SHOP":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":644,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9984822836,"gmtCreate":1667607393725,"gmtModify":1676537942869,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Read","listText":"Read","text":"Read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9984822836","repostId":"2281680644","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":833,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9985012759,"gmtCreate":1667268011571,"gmtModify":1676537888241,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087626579975990","authorIdStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌","listText":"👌","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9985012759","repostId":"2280334050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2280334050","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1667257622,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2280334050?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-01 07:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Wall Street Ends Strong Month on Weaker Note; Focus on Fed Meeting","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2280334050","media":"Reuters","summary":"Apple falls after report of iPhone production slumpGlobal Payments down on weak forecastDow scores b","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Apple falls after report of iPhone production slump</li><li>Global Payments down on weak forecast</li><li>Dow scores biggest monthly percentage gain in decades</li><li>Dow down 0.39%, S&amp;P 500 down 0.75%, Nasdaq down 1.03%</li></ul><p>U.S. stocks lost ground on Monday, with the major indexes closing out a strong month of gains on a weaker foot, as investor focus turned to the Federal Reserve&#39;s policy meeting this week.</p><p>The central bank is widely expected to raise interest rates by 75 basis points on Wednesday at the conclusion of its two-day policy meeting, but investors will look for any signals the Fed may be considering a deceleration in interest rate hikes in the future.</p><p>Hopes the Fed may pull back from its aggressive interest rate hike policy have lifted equities in recent weeks, with the S&amp;P 500 notching a gain of nearly 9% over the past two weeks.

On Thursday, Amazon (AMZN) joined the list of fallen tech giants. After disastrous results for Alphabet, Microsoft and then Meta, the ecommerce leader took its turn to reflect the difficulties faced by the market leaders in the current economic climate.Shares are taking a hit in pre-market trading after the company said it expects a deceleration in sales growth for the holiday season, with waning demand amidst fears of a recession and the strong dollar all taking their toll. Meanwhile, Amazon also delivered a mixed Q3 report.First, the bright spot; posting a quarterly profit for the first time in 2022, Amazon delivered EPS of $0.28, coming in ahead of the Street’s forecast of $0.22.But there was a miss on the top-line as revenue increased by 14.7% year-over-year to $127.1 billion, falling shy of the consensus estimate by $370 million.Exhibiting the lowest growth rate since the start of 2014, AWS sales increased by 27.5% from the same period a year ago to $20.5 billion, below the analysts’ prediction of $21.2 billion.And then there was the guide; for Q4, Amazon’s operating income is expected in the region between $0 and $4.0 billion, with sales coming in between $140 billion to $148 billion. That was a big letdown as Wall Street had called for operating income of $5.05 billion and revenue of $155.09 billion.With the shares hammered and the stock on course to head back below the $1 trillion market cap threshold for the first time since April 2020, Truist’s Youssef Squali has some reassuring words for battered investors.“AMZN’s results were generally in line with expectations but the linearity of 3Q and the 4Q guide show that demand trends are slowing into October,” the 5-star analyst said. “In addition to macro headwinds, AMZN is also working to regain productivity losses from Covid, which are taking a bit longer to materialize and weighing on margins. That said, we view these challenges as temporary and see AMZN with the power of Prime, AWS leadership and rapidly growing ad business as best positioned to ride these multiple secular growth trends in FY23/beyond.”To this end, Squali maintains a Buy rating although the price target is lowered from $170 to $160. Still, the revised figure suggests shares will climb 44% higher over the coming months.Amazon remains a favorite on Wall Street. While one analyst stays on the sidelines, all 30 other reviews on file are positive, making the consensus view here a Strong Buy. Going by the $169.32 average target, the shares have room for 53% growth in the year ahead.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":872,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":801286295,"gmtCreate":1627518727617,"gmtModify":1703491463696,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087626579975990","idStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"FB another good stock to buy on dip.","listText":"FB another good stock to buy on dip.","text":"FB another good stock to buy on dip.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/801286295","repostId":"1171529765","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":763,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":158688599,"gmtCreate":1625147781511,"gmtModify":1703737153836,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087626579975990","idStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like AMZN but it's pricey.&nbsp;","listText":"Like AMZN but it's pricey.&nbsp;","text":"Like AMZN but it's pricey.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/158688599","repostId":"1113357649","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1113357649","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625133776,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1113357649?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-01 18:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon: Undervalued With Potential Upside Of 25%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1113357649","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Amazon is a unique and growing company that uses its disruptive platform to disrupt any new business it enters.I initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share .The company's improving top line and bottom line performance  suggests that the stock is currently undervalued by 3.9%.Amazon, a $1.74 trillion company.

This is the current market capitalization (as of 06/29/2021) of the company and this implies that it is currently 15.18% away from being a $2 trillion company, not bad no?</p>\n<p>Amazon is a unique and growing company that uses its disruptive platform to disrupt any new business it enters. For example, when Amazon announced the acquisition of Whole Foods, Walmart(NYSE:WMT), Kroger(NYSE:KR), Target(NYSE:TGT)took a&nbsp;nice hit&nbsp;in market value. I believe that the company will be able to keep delivering strong top line growth and continued growth in margins, fueled not only by the company's current business expansion but also by entering into new markets and new businesses.</p>\n<p><b>Company Analysis</b></p>\n<p>I initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share (vs. the current price of $3443/share). The FV is an algorithm-adjusted fair value (the algorithm takes into account fundamental and technical factors, such as DCF FV, momentum, etc.) and it implies that the stock is undervalued by 3.9%.</p>\n<p>To compute the DCF FV, I used the trailing twelve-month numbers and I also restated the financials since I capitalized on R&amp;D expenses with an amortizable life of 3 years. As&nbsp;with Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL), I don't believe that Amazon's R&amp;D is an operating expense, and for this reason, I treat it as CapEx. By taking into account the R&amp;D, the following metrics have been restated (all numbers in $mm).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb427d462596db1e1cb1ffc99acc90e4\" tg-width=\"571\" tg-height=\"240\"><span>Source:Author's estimates using data from the latest 10-K report</span></p>\n<p>Capitalizing on R&amp;D expenses, we have now a more clear picture of the company (i.e. the restated operating margin is now 9.03% TTM vs the non-restated operating margin is 6.63% TTM).</p>\n<p><b>Discounted Cash Flow Model</b></p>\n<p>Now, let's turn to the discounted cash flow valuation part. Below, you can see the results with the relative assumptions I have made.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e215b21ca0b3be5a5e0e7b62e36fb5f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"268\"><span>Source:Author's estimates using data from the latest 10-K report</span></p>\n<p>In my DCF model, I assume a revenue growth for the Y1 of 21.2%, a CAGR Y2-Y5 of 15% and I assume a terminal year growth rate of 1.48% (or the current yield on 10Y Treasury). The decision of using the current and not expected yield is due to the willingness to remain market neutral (perhaps you can use&nbsp;Goldman Sachs expectations&nbsp;of 1.9%). The current assumptions lead to revenues of $1,253,844 million in Y10.</p>\n<p>Along the road, I also assume an improving outlook for operating margins with the target operating margin of 13.2% (vs current restated operating margin of 9.03%). If the company will be able to meet this target, it will result in operating margins in Y10 of $163,097 million.</p>\n<p>Finally, in doing my estimates, I used a WACC of 5.75% and a sales to capital ratio (or how much the company is going to reinvest to keep its business growing) of 2.95.</p>\n<p>By putting it together, I obtain a DCF value of $3328/share.</p>\n<p><b>Monte Carlo Simulation</b></p>\n<p>Rather than showing you only my point estimates, which may be right but also may be wrong, let's use probability distributions for inputs. Simulations allow us to assess the impact of continuous risk (e.g., changes in operating margins). In particular, I would like to focus on what I consider the main inputs of interest to get a bigger picture of the risk in the company. Those inputs are:</p>\n<p><i>1. Revenue Growth:</i></p>\n<p>In my DCF analysis, I assumed an expected CAGR Y2-Y5 of 15% with lower rates going forward. This assumption lead to revenues in Y10 of $1,253,844 million. While it is a reasonable assumption, Amazon is full of surprises, and it may deliver a top line growth well above my expectations. In the latter, I see a possible scenario with a CAGR Y2-Y5 of 24%, resulting in Y10 revenues of $1,989,952 million. However, we all know that regulators represent a big risk for the company. According to&nbsp;WSJ sources, if the \"giant-tech bill\" will pass, the company may be forced to either split into two companies or spin off its private-label product businesses. This represents a big risk that may slow down Amazon's growth, which could translate into a growth rate of 6% (resulting in Y10 revenues of $764,723 million). To sum up, I will assume a uniform distribution with a maximum of 24% and a minimum of 6%. The results are displayed below (this simulation and the next one have been performed 10,000 times).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/893dff753c8ca210759feb31b3966a5c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"235\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p><i>2. Operating Margin</i>:</p>\n<p>Currently, Amazon has a restated operating margin of 9.03% TTM (vs not restated EBIT margin of 6.83%). In my DCF, I assumed a target operating margin of 13.2%. While this represents my most likely scenario for the company, I cannot close my eyes to the fact that, even if the company is improving its margins, it is following a very slow climb. Below, I display the non-restated EBIT margin for the last 5 years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d66fcb05f4254b15de278f016121ffa\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"221\"><span>Source:SeekingAlpha.com</span></p>\n<p>However, as I stated at the beginning, Amazon is a disruptive company with the ability to do extraordinary things. For instance, AWS presents a current operating margin of 30% TTM and a revenue growth rate of 29.53% in 2020. A trend which is expected to continue, driven by improving outlook and with new partners joining the party. The last to join the party are Ferrari(NYSE:RACE)and Swisscom(OTCPK:SWZCF)who have chosen AWS as their&nbsp;preferred cloud partner.</p>\n<p>In 2020,according to Gartner, AWS generated revenue 2 times bigger than Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT). As stated by Gartner:</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>The worldwide</i>&nbsp;\n <i>infrastructure as a service(IaaS) market grew 40.7% in 2020 to total $64.3 billion, up from $45.7 billion in 2019, according to Gartner, Inc. Amazon retained the No. 1 position in the IaaS market in 2020, followed by Microsoft, Alibaba, Google and Huawei... Amazon continued to lead the worldwide IaaS market with $26.2 billion of revenue in 2020 and 41% market share.</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ac00a17cbbd930ad6464a63f6d4f98eb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"388\"><span>Source:Gartner.com</span></p>\n<p>Finally, to account for my concerns and beliefs, I will assume a triangular distribution with the following limits: the likeliest target operating margin of 13.2%, a maximum of 18.4%, and a minimum of 8% (close to the current company's EBIT margin). The results are displayed below.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/054e2db392be500768de741516186013\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"237\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p><i>3. Cost of Capital:</i></p>\n<p>The last input of interest is the cost of capital. In doing my analysis, I estimated a cost of capital of 5.8% (with the current 10Y rate of 1.48 and an implied ERP of 4.54%). However, I may be wrong due to sector risk estimates or changes in the business mix (or both). To account for the possibility that I made some mistakes along the road, I will rely on a lognormal distribution with the most likely scenario of 5.8%. The results of the simulation are displayed below.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7d51740fa35eb9aedbc58c4c49d96eb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"235\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p>By putting all of this together, the simulations return the following results.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/139c89300706eab1e37dd1c992286d31\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"222\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p>For completeness, I also display below the relative and cumulative frequency of the simulation.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af7a908e21b8678a775a3e1742161a7d\" tg-width=\"573\" tg-height=\"644\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p>By looking at the results, we can see that the 50th percentile or the median is equal to $3274, close to the expected DCF FV of $3328. While the algorithm-adjusted FV of $3576 is the 60th percentile in my simulations (note also the long right tail).</p>\n<p>Finally, simulation results give us an interesting insight into a potential exit point. I believe that an interesting take profit point may be within the 80th percentile, which implies a potential upside of 24.89%. Why within the 80th percentile? I believe that, after reaching the $2.0 trillion company status, we will see the last climb of euphoria before investors start to take profits.</p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>Both the algorithm-adjusted fair value and the Monte Carlo simulation suggest and support the bullish rating. The results found suggest that the stock is currently undervalued and that the company has still more room to go. What may drive the price to go higher? Well, there are different factors that may drive it. One of those is for sure corporate news. For instance, the company may introduce new products or announce a stock split (For the latter, I think this is unlikely, at least not now). However, don't forget also the other side, the risks.

This is the current market capitalization (as of 06/29/2021) of the company and this implies that it is currently 15.18% away from being a $2 trillion company, not bad no?\nAmazon is a unique and growing company that uses its disruptive platform to disrupt any new business it enters. For example, when Amazon announced the acquisition of Whole Foods, Walmart(NYSE:WMT), Kroger(NYSE:KR), Target(NYSE:TGT)took a nice hit in market value. I believe that the company will be able to keep delivering strong top line growth and continued growth in margins, fueled not only by the company's current business expansion but also by entering into new markets and new businesses.\nCompany Analysis\nI initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share (vs. the current price of $3443/share). The FV is an algorithm-adjusted fair value (the algorithm takes into account fundamental and technical factors, such as DCF FV, momentum, etc.) and it implies that the stock is undervalued by 3.9%.\nTo compute the DCF FV, I used the trailing twelve-month numbers and I also restated the financials since I capitalized on R&D expenses with an amortizable life of 3 years. As with Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL), I don't believe that Amazon's R&D is an operating expense, and for this reason, I treat it as CapEx. By taking into account the R&D, the following metrics have been restated (all numbers in $mm).\nSource:Author's estimates using data from the latest 10-K report\nCapitalizing on R&D expenses, we have now a more clear picture of the company (i.e. the restated operating margin is now 9.03% TTM vs the non-restated operating margin is 6.63% TTM).\nDiscounted Cash Flow Model\nNow, let's turn to the discounted cash flow valuation part. Below, you can see the results with the relative assumptions I have made.\nSource:Author's estimates using data from the latest 10-K report\nIn my DCF model, I assume a revenue growth for the Y1 of 21.2%, a CAGR Y2-Y5 of 15% and I assume a terminal year growth rate of 1.48% (or the current yield on 10Y Treasury). The decision of using the current and not expected yield is due to the willingness to remain market neutral (perhaps you can use Goldman Sachs expectations of 1.9%). The current assumptions lead to revenues of $1,253,844 million in Y10.\nAlong the road, I also assume an improving outlook for operating margins with the target operating margin of 13.2% (vs current restated operating margin of 9.03%). If the company will be able to meet this target, it will result in operating margins in Y10 of $163,097 million.\nFinally, in doing my estimates, I used a WACC of 5.75% and a sales to capital ratio (or how much the company is going to reinvest to keep its business growing) of 2.95.\nBy putting it together, I obtain a DCF value of $3328/share.\nMonte Carlo Simulation\nRather than showing you only my point estimates, which may be right but also may be wrong, let's use probability distributions for inputs. Simulations allow us to assess the impact of continuous risk (e.g., changes in operating margins). In particular, I would like to focus on what I consider the main inputs of interest to get a bigger picture of the risk in the company. Those inputs are:\n1. Revenue Growth:\nIn my DCF analysis, I assumed an expected CAGR Y2-Y5 of 15% with lower rates going forward. This assumption lead to revenues in Y10 of $1,253,844 million. While it is a reasonable assumption, Amazon is full of surprises, and it may deliver a top line growth well above my expectations. In the latter, I see a possible scenario with a CAGR Y2-Y5 of 24%, resulting in Y10 revenues of $1,989,952 million. However, we all know that regulators represent a big risk for the company. According to WSJ sources, if the \"giant-tech bill\" will pass, the company may be forced to either split into two companies or spin off its private-label product businesses. This represents a big risk that may slow down Amazon's growth, which could translate into a growth rate of 6% (resulting in Y10 revenues of $764,723 million). To sum up, I will assume a uniform distribution with a maximum of 24% and a minimum of 6%. The results are displayed below (this simulation and the next one have been performed 10,000 times).\nSource:Author's estimates\n2. Operating Margin:\nCurrently, Amazon has a restated operating margin of 9.03% TTM (vs not restated EBIT margin of 6.83%). In my DCF, I assumed a target operating margin of 13.2%. While this represents my most likely scenario for the company, I cannot close my eyes to the fact that, even if the company is improving its margins, it is following a very slow climb. Below, I display the non-restated EBIT margin for the last 5 years.\nSource:SeekingAlpha.com\nHowever, as I stated at the beginning, Amazon is a disruptive company with the ability to do extraordinary things. For instance, AWS presents a current operating margin of 30% TTM and a revenue growth rate of 29.53% in 2020. A trend which is expected to continue, driven by improving outlook and with new partners joining the party. The last to join the party are Ferrari(NYSE:RACE)and Swisscom(OTCPK:SWZCF)who have chosen AWS as their preferred cloud partner.\nIn 2020,according to Gartner, AWS generated revenue 2 times bigger than Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT). As stated by Gartner:\n\nThe worldwide \n infrastructure as a service(IaaS) market grew 40.7% in 2020 to total $64.3 billion, up from $45.7 billion in 2019, according to Gartner, Inc. Amazon retained the No. 1 position in the IaaS market in 2020, followed by Microsoft, Alibaba, Google and Huawei... Amazon continued to lead the worldwide IaaS market with $26.2 billion of revenue in 2020 and 41% market share.\n\nSource:Gartner.com\nFinally, to account for my concerns and beliefs, I will assume a triangular distribution with the following limits: the likeliest target operating margin of 13.2%, a maximum of 18.4%, and a minimum of 8% (close to the current company's EBIT margin). The results are displayed below.\nSource:Author's estimates\n3. Cost of Capital:\nThe last input of interest is the cost of capital. In doing my analysis, I estimated a cost of capital of 5.8% (with the current 10Y rate of 1.48 and an implied ERP of 4.54%). However, I may be wrong due to sector risk estimates or changes in the business mix (or both). To account for the possibility that I made some mistakes along the road, I will rely on a lognormal distribution with the most likely scenario of 5.8%. The results of the simulation are displayed below.\nSource:Author's estimates\nBy putting all of this together, the simulations return the following results.\nSource:Author's estimates\nFor completeness, I also display below the relative and cumulative frequency of the simulation.\nSource:Author's estimates\nBy looking at the results, we can see that the 50th percentile or the median is equal to $3274, close to the expected DCF FV of $3328. While the algorithm-adjusted FV of $3576 is the 60th percentile in my simulations (note also the long right tail).\nFinally, simulation results give us an interesting insight into a potential exit point. I believe that an interesting take profit point may be within the 80th percentile, which implies a potential upside of 24.89%. Why within the 80th percentile? I believe that, after reaching the $2.0 trillion company status, we will see the last climb of euphoria before investors start to take profits.\nFinal Thoughts\nBoth the algorithm-adjusted fair value and the Monte Carlo simulation suggest and support the bullish rating. The results found suggest that the stock is currently undervalued and that the company has still more room to go. What may drive the price to go higher? Well, there are different factors that may drive it. One of those is for sure corporate news. For instance, the company may introduce new products or announce a stock split (For the latter, I think this is unlikely, at least not now). However, don't forget also the other side, the risks. There are many risks associated with being invested in the company, one of those is represented by antitrust and regulators.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":644,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3568271286196651","authorId":"3568271286196651","name":"fionat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/690b4ea91c83e331febd6098848bb10b","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3568271286196651","idStr":"3568271286196651"},"content":"I think the price now still pretty high.

Struggling with debt from an ill-timed $38 billion deal, Chief ExecutiveVicki Hollubwas fending off activist investorCarl Icahn, who controlled two board seats.</p><p>Two years later, the company has emerged as the top performer in the S&amp;P 500, and Ms. Hollub has traded Mr. Icahn, who sold all of his Occidental shares in March, for Warren Buffett, whoseBerkshire Hathaway Inc. now owns more than 20% of the company.</p><p>It was touch and go for a time. Months before the pandemic took hold, she implemented widespread layoffs. To stave off bankruptcy after oil prices collapsed in 2020, she slashed spending and nearly eliminated Occidental’s once-sacrosanct dividend—“the biggest and toughest decision that I made and I’ve ever made in my career,” she said in an interview.</p><p>Her 2019 acquisition of rival Anadarko Petroleum Corp., which Mr. Icahn called a “disaster,” has given Occidental the dominant position in the largest U.S. shale-oil field, the Permian Basin. Lifted by climbing oil prices, Occidental generated a record $4.35 billion in free cash flow and $3.7 billion in profit in the second quarter. It has cut its debt to $22 billion from nearly $36 billion a year ago.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61847881fba325e1dc5c7ed3280e29db\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"840\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Oil-and-gas producers have reported banner profits this year, even as a global energy crisis sparked by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has threatened to derail European industries, left the U.K. facing its worst economic crisis since the 1970s and forced the Netherlands, Germany and India to rely heavily on coal to make up for a dearth of natural gas.</p><p>But Ms. Hollub, the first woman to be CEO of a major U.S. oil company, says she doesn’t feel vindicated. “I just feel relief,” she said. “There were a lot of doubters.”</p><p>Mr. Buffett has publicly lauded Ms. Hollub’s leadership. After she detailed the company’s future plans for analysts in February, Mr. Buffett told his own shareholders, “What Vicki Hollub was saying made nothing but sense.” Last month, Berkshire received regulatory approval to buy up to 50% of the oil company’s shares, spurring speculation it might seek to purchase all of Occidental.</p><p>Mr. Buffett declined to comment for this story. Ms. Hollub said she has “tremendous respect” for Mr. Buffett, adding that “he will be very beneficial for us as we go forward.” She declined to discuss the possibility of Berkshire purchasing the entire company.</p><p>Some former investors remain skeptical, saying a spike in oil prices has rescued the company, not Ms. Hollub.</p><p>“I have nothing personal against Vicki,” Mr. Icahn said in an interview. “However, that will never change my mind that she should not have made a bet-the-company investment by way of overpaying for Anadarko.”</p><p>A University of Alabama graduate, Ms. Hollub joined Occidental in 1982 and soon found herself running operations in Russia and Venezuela. She almost got laid off in 2003, butTodd Stevens, an executive at the company who had followed her rise, arranged for her to lead a team evaluating acreage in Colorado, said Mr. Stevens, who has since left.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bf58d7d767a23cfb352e019504bafa44\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"840\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Equipment used to process carbon dioxide, crude oil and water at an Occidental Petroleum project in Hobbs, N.M.PHOTO:ERNEST SCHEYDER/REUTERS</span></p><p>Ms. Hollub became known as a hard worker, once spending three weeks straightening out operations at a new gas field’s first well, said Donnie Enns, a former geophysicist who worked under her. “Nobody worked harder than Vicki,” he said. She also found time to run an office March Madness basketball pool.</p><p>After being named CEO of the company in 2016, Ms. Hollub departed from her predecessor’s preference for low-risk, “bolt-on” transactions. A little over a year into the job, she started courting Anadarko, an oil producer of comparable size, for a deal.</p><p>She outflanked largerChevronCorp. in a bidding war that riveted the oil patch, offering $5 billion more than her rival for Anadarko and its prized assets in the epicenter of U.S. shale production. Yet victory came at a steep cost.</p><p>Some of Occidental’s largest shareholders decried the deal—especially a pricey loan from Mr. Buffett in the form of $10 billion in preferred stock paying 8% annually in dividends, or $800 million. Ms. Hollub negotiated the funding at the eleventh hour after meeting with the financier in Omaha, Neb. Mr. Icahn, who first bought stock as the Anadarko bidding war came to a close, wrote to Occidental shareholders that “Buffett figuratively took her to the cleaners.”</p><p>Ms. Hollub acknowledged the deal damaged the company’s standing with some investors. “I was never offended at the fact that our shareholders were skeptical,” she said.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58cf5cd81991220ec1f42821cee2554b\" tg-width=\"639\" tg-height=\"959\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Vicki Hollub said she never doubted the wisdom of the Anadarko acquisition.PHOTO:ANGELA OWENS/THE WALL STREET JOURNAL</span></p><p>But she said she never doubted the wisdom of the acquisition, even after it sparked an investor revolt that created an opportunity for Mr. Icahn.</p><p>Central to Ms. Hollub’s strategy was building on Occidental’s already-large position in the oil-rich Permian of West Texas and New Mexico. She believed purchasing and drilling a huge swath of new acreage, much of it near the company’s existing assets, would give Occidental economies of scale and allow it to outperform Permian rivals. Occidental, she said, was one of the most technologically advanced drillers in the field; it would turn Anadarko’s undeveloped assets into oil-gushing wells.</p><p>By the end of 2019, the oil producer said it was making progress on its merger goals. It had divested itself of more than $6 billion in assets, including stakes in a liquefied natural gas export project in Mozambique and in a Houston-based pipeline company. Occidental recorded single-day and monthly production records in the Permian and other oil fields. Occidental announced its 182nd consecutive quarterly dividend, which Ms. Hollub noted at the time that “few other companies can claim.”</p><p>Ms. Hollub believed the merger was on track, but investors remained skeptical. From the time of Occidental’s counteroffer for Anadarko in April 2019 to February 2020 Occidental’s stock fell around 35%. Then the global pandemic took hold.</p><p>As billions of people around the world began to lock down, demand for oil plummeted. In the spring, oil prices reached historic lows, briefly turning negative for the first time ever as traders paid counterparties to take oil off their hands. Falling demand for their product hammered oil-and-gas companies, forcing dozens into bankruptcy.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9090db9eab1ac4c91bd5b1b441d26206\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"840\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Gasoline prices sank in April 2020 after the global pandemic caused oil prices to drop below zero.PHOTO:FREDERIC J. BROWN/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE/GETTY IMAGES</span></p><p>Every day, Ms. Hollub would drive to Occidental’s Houston offices in her red Jeep Wrangler, said Glenn Vangolen, a former senior vice president at Occidental and close adviser to the CEO. Mondays and Fridays, she and her lieutenants would mask up and gather in a conference room to discuss operations. Her office was spartan—a mostly bare room, except for a TV playing business news on mute, and a plush stuffed version of a costumed elephant, the Alabama Crimson Tide’s mascot, Mr. Vangolen said.</p><p>Occidental was in a worse situation than many of its peers: At the end of 2019, its long-term debt of about $39 billion was equivalent to roughly four times its earnings, excluding interest, taxes and other accounting items, quadruple the ratio from a year earlier, S&amp;P Capital IQ data show. The divestitures it had planned on to pay it down were no longer viable as assets were losing value.</p><p>Ms. Hollub said that Occidental made a lot of the difficult decisions before the pandemic to mitigate the downside risks of the Anadarko acquisition, including hedging a portion of its oil production and bumping its line of credit to $5 billion. But the company still faced painful months ahead as it had barely enough cash on hand to meet debt maturities coming due in 2021 and was later forced to hire restructuring advisers.</p><p>Ms. Hollub moved to cut her executives’ salaries—including her own by 81%—offer employees voluntary buy-outs, slash expenses in the oil patch and cancel employee perks. She also cut the dividend, which rankled investors.</p><p>Mr. Icahn amplified his calls for Ms. Hollub’s ouster and said he would seek to replace the entire board of directors at the company’s annual meeting. As the oil producer’s stock plunged to under $10 from around $45 before the pandemic, Mr. Icahn—facing paper losses of about $1 billion—doubled down on his shares, boosting his stake to roughly 10% from about 2%.</p><p>After a price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia caused oil prices to plunge below $25 a barrel in March, Occidental reached a settlement with Mr. Icahn. The deal gave board seats to two of his deputies and added another director, required Occidental to create an oversight committee that must be informed of any offers to acquire the company or its assets, and replaced the board chairman withStephen Chazen, Ms. Hollub’s predecessor as CEO.</p><p>Mr. Icahn’s camp pushed for Occidental to give its shareholders warrants that could allow them to buy discounted shares in the future. After he prevailed, Mr. Icahn received roughly 11 million warrants initially and bought more when they were worth around $3.</p><p>Mr. Vangolen said Mr. Icahn’s demand for warrants was part of the investor’s “raider playbook,” which he described as “trying to extract as much cash out of the business as you can before you bail.”</p><p>Mr. Icahn said that all the shareholders who rode the stock down deserved something for their loyalty.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3af2c050a88b00dd9846de958b65be1b\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"840\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>A crude oil pump jack in the Permian Basin in Loving County, Texas.PHOTO:ANGUS MORDANT/REUTERS</span></p><p>As the pandemic dragged on, Occidental logged a roughly $14.8 billion loss for 2020, its largest on record, according to S&amp;P Capital IQ data. Still, it continued to whittle down its mammoth debt, closing around $2.5 billion in asset sales at the end of 2020. Anadarko’s assets, meanwhile, were starting to shine, with production in the Permian reaching the high end of company estimates.</p><p>Even as Ms. Hollub wrestled with Mr. Icahn, she was building a relationship with Mr. Buffett.</p><p>In 2020, she traveled to Omaha to discuss Occidental&#39;s long-term strategy with Mr. Buffett, according to a person familiar with the meeting. The investor expressed a strong interest in the company&#39;s goal to become a leader in carbon capture, this person said.</p><p>Occidental says it has no plans to stop producing oil but also aims to be a leader in &#34;carbon management.&#34; It wants to develop 70 plants by 2035 to suck carbon dioxide out of the air, store it in the ground and sell carbon credits to businesses seeking to offset their own emissions -- a technology still in its commercial infancy that received a boost thanks to tax credits included in the climate package President Biden signed into law last month. The company also plans to use the gas to squeeze more oil from underground.</p><p>Then, in late February of this year, Russia invaded Ukraine.</p><p>The war propelled oil prices to their highest level in years, with Brent crude oil topping $120 in March, translating into a windfall for oil companies. In the first quarter of the year, Occidental made roughly $4.9 billion in profit, its highest quarterly earnings on record, according to S&amp;P Capital IQ.</p><p>The company now holds the most acreage across the Permian, with leases covering about 2.8 million net acres, according to data firm Enverus. Its domestic oil output in the second quarter of this year was up roughly 80% compared with before it acquired Anadarko, Occidental reported.</p><p>As Occidental&#39;s stock rose above $50 a share in March, Mr. Icahn sold his common stake. The investor&#39;s two representatives on Occidental&#39;s board also resigned, as was required by the settlement agreement. Mr. Icahn made over $1.5 billion on his investment and still holds some warrants, according to public filings and people familiar with the matter.</p><p>As Mr. Icahn got out of the stock, Mr. Buffett bought in. In May, Berkshire reported it had purchased roughly $8 billion worth of shares.</p><p>Mr. Icahn said that Mr. Buffett&#39;s investment could be ill-timed. &#34;I respect Buffett a lot but I think buying this stock at this level is obviously not like buying warrants at $3,&#34; he said. &#34;I made a great deal of money on my investment in Occidental, especially with the warrants, and activism worked in that regard,&#34; he said.</p><p>Ms. Hollub and Mr. Buffett have developed a personal relationship and the two talk periodically, said Mr. Vangolen. Ms. Hollub said in an interview she had no personal relationship with Mr. Icahn when he was an investor, and that he turned out not to be the kind of long-term shareholder the company prizes.</p><p>Mr. Icahn&#39;s retort: &#34;She came very close to not being a long-term shareholder also, because her ill-timed investment put the company on the brink of bankruptcy.&#34;</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>How a CEO Rescued a Big Bet on Big Oil; \"There Were a Lot of Doubters\"</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\">\nHow a CEO Rescued a Big Bet on Big Oil; \"There Were a Lot of Doubters\"\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-09-11 09:57</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be5cb2e717152d9e61504d0803ac3654\" tg-width=\"1278\" tg-height=\"1278\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Occidental Petroleum Corp. entered the thick of the pandemic among the worst prepared of its U.S. oil-and-gas peers.

Struggling with debt from an ill-timed $38 billion deal, Chief ExecutiveVicki Hollubwas fending off activist investorCarl Icahn, who controlled two board seats.Two years later, the company has emerged as the top performer in the S&P 500, and Ms. Hollub has traded Mr. Icahn, who sold all of his Occidental shares in March, for Warren Buffett, whoseBerkshire Hathaway Inc. now owns more than 20% of the company.It was touch and go for a time. Months before the pandemic took hold, she implemented widespread layoffs. To stave off bankruptcy after oil prices collapsed in 2020, she slashed spending and nearly eliminated Occidental’s once-sacrosanct dividend—“the biggest and toughest decision that I made and I’ve ever made in my career,” she said in an interview.Her 2019 acquisition of rival Anadarko Petroleum Corp., which Mr. Icahn called a “disaster,” has given Occidental the dominant position in the largest U.S. shale-oil field, the Permian Basin. Lifted by climbing oil prices, Occidental generated a record $4.35 billion in free cash flow and $3.7 billion in profit in the second quarter. It has cut its debt to $22 billion from nearly $36 billion a year ago.Oil-and-gas producers have reported banner profits this year, even as a global energy crisis sparked by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has threatened to derail European industries, left the U.K. facing its worst economic crisis since the 1970s and forced the Netherlands, Germany and India to rely heavily on coal to make up for a dearth of natural gas.But Ms. Hollub, the first woman to be CEO of a major U.S. oil company, says she doesn’t feel vindicated. “I just feel relief,” she said. “There were a lot of doubters.”Mr. Buffett has publicly lauded Ms. Hollub’s leadership. After she detailed the company’s future plans for analysts in February, Mr. Buffett told his own shareholders, “What Vicki Hollub was saying made nothing but sense.” Last month, Berkshire received regulatory approval to buy up to 50% of the oil company’s shares, spurring speculation it might seek to purchase all of Occidental.Mr. Buffett declined to comment for this story. Ms. Hollub said she has “tremendous respect” for Mr. Buffett, adding that “he will be very beneficial for us as we go forward.” She declined to discuss the possibility of Berkshire purchasing the entire company.Some former investors remain skeptical, saying a spike in oil prices has rescued the company, not Ms. Hollub.“I have nothing personal against Vicki,” Mr. Icahn said in an interview. “However, that will never change my mind that she should not have made a bet-the-company investment by way of overpaying for Anadarko.”A University of Alabama graduate, Ms. Hollub joined Occidental in 1982 and soon found herself running operations in Russia and Venezuela. She almost got laid off in 2003, butTodd Stevens, an executive at the company who had followed her rise, arranged for her to lead a team evaluating acreage in Colorado, said Mr. Stevens, who has since left.Equipment used to process carbon dioxide, crude oil and water at an Occidental Petroleum project in Hobbs, N.M.PHOTO:ERNEST SCHEYDER/REUTERSMs. Hollub became known as a hard worker, once spending three weeks straightening out operations at a new gas field’s first well, said Donnie Enns, a former geophysicist who worked under her. “Nobody worked harder than Vicki,” he said. She also found time to run an office March Madness basketball pool.After being named CEO of the company in 2016, Ms. Hollub departed from her predecessor’s preference for low-risk, “bolt-on” transactions. A little over a year into the job, she started courting Anadarko, an oil producer of comparable size, for a deal.She outflanked largerChevronCorp. in a bidding war that riveted the oil patch, offering $5 billion more than her rival for Anadarko and its prized assets in the epicenter of U.S. shale production. Yet victory came at a steep cost.Some of Occidental’s largest shareholders decried the deal—especially a pricey loan from Mr. Buffett in the form of $10 billion in preferred stock paying 8% annually in dividends, or $800 million. Ms. Hollub negotiated the funding at the eleventh hour after meeting with the financier in Omaha, Neb. Mr. Icahn, who first bought stock as the Anadarko bidding war came to a close, wrote to Occidental shareholders that “Buffett figuratively took her to the cleaners.”Ms. Hollub acknowledged the deal damaged the company’s standing with some investors. “I was never offended at the fact that our shareholders were skeptical,” she said.Vicki Hollub said she never doubted the wisdom of the Anadarko acquisition.PHOTO:ANGELA OWENS/THE WALL STREET JOURNALBut she said she never doubted the wisdom of the acquisition, even after it sparked an investor revolt that created an opportunity for Mr. Icahn.Central to Ms. Hollub’s strategy was building on Occidental’s already-large position in the oil-rich Permian of West Texas and New Mexico. She believed purchasing and drilling a huge swath of new acreage, much of it near the company’s existing assets, would give Occidental economies of scale and allow it to outperform Permian rivals. Occidental, she said, was one of the most technologically advanced drillers in the field; it would turn Anadarko’s undeveloped assets into oil-gushing wells.By the end of 2019, the oil producer said it was making progress on its merger goals. It had divested itself of more than $6 billion in assets, including stakes in a liquefied natural gas export project in Mozambique and in a Houston-based pipeline company. Occidental recorded single-day and monthly production records in the Permian and other oil fields. Occidental announced its 182nd consecutive quarterly dividend, which Ms. Hollub noted at the time that “few other companies can claim.”Ms. Hollub believed the merger was on track, but investors remained skeptical. From the time of Occidental’s counteroffer for Anadarko in April 2019 to February 2020 Occidental’s stock fell around 35%. Then the global pandemic took hold.As billions of people around the world began to lock down, demand for oil plummeted. In the spring, oil prices reached historic lows, briefly turning negative for the first time ever as traders paid counterparties to take oil off their hands. Falling demand for their product hammered oil-and-gas companies, forcing dozens into bankruptcy.Gasoline prices sank in April 2020 after the global pandemic caused oil prices to drop below zero.PHOTO:FREDERIC J. BROWN/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE/GETTY IMAGESEvery day, Ms. Hollub would drive to Occidental’s Houston offices in her red Jeep Wrangler, said Glenn Vangolen, a former senior vice president at Occidental and close adviser to the CEO. Mondays and Fridays, she and her lieutenants would mask up and gather in a conference room to discuss operations. Her office was spartan—a mostly bare room, except for a TV playing business news on mute, and a plush stuffed version of a costumed elephant, the Alabama Crimson Tide’s mascot, Mr. Vangolen said.Occidental was in a worse situation than many of its peers: At the end of 2019, its long-term debt of about $39 billion was equivalent to roughly four times its earnings, excluding interest, taxes and other accounting items, quadruple the ratio from a year earlier, S&P Capital IQ data show.

Comparing the two, more than one-fourth of the top TAA companies are in the top decile of the QSI; two-thirds are in the top quarter, and all but two (92%) are in the top half.</p>\n<p>Notably, both the TAA top 10 and the QSI Top 25 outperformed the S&amp;P 500 by 30% and 50%, respectively, in recent five-year periods. Here’s a sampling of companies scoring high on both trust and quality:</p>\n<p>Texas InstrumentsTXN,+0.72%makes most of its revenue selling computer chips and is among the world’s largest manufacturers of semiconductors. Founded by a group of electrical engineers in 1951, the company boasts a culture of intelligent innovation. Its business is protected by four protective “moats” including: manufacturing and technology skill thanks to its employees; a broad portfolio of processing chips to meet a wide range of customer needs; the reach of its market channels thanks to both, and its diversity and longevity.</p>\n<p>For investors, this adds up to a winning recipe, particularly when combined with Texas Instruments’s capital management strategy, which is to maximize the company’s long-term growth in free cash-flow per share and to&nbsp;allocate such capital in accordance with the QS playbook&nbsp;that prioritizes wise reinvestment, disciplined acquisitions, low-priced share buybacks and shareholder dividends. Some of the company’s notable QSs include: Alliance Bernstein, Bessemer Group, Capital World Investors, State Farm Mutual, and T. Rowe Price Group.</p>\n<p>Another stock on this list, EcolabECL,+0.77%,is a global leader in water treatment. Founded in 1923 as the Economics Laboratory, its long-term outlook shows in the longevity of senior leadership: the company has had just seven CEOs in almost 100 years of existence.</p>\n<p>Those CEOs inculcated a culture of customer care, a relentless focus on helping customers solve problems and meet goals. A learning organization, such a performance culture permeates the business from production to sales, as employees commit to the long-term goal of being indispensable to customers. Management rewards that employee conviction with long-term incentives and a high degree of autonomy.&nbsp;Ecolab’s QSs include: Cantillon Capital, Clearbridge Investments, Franklin Resources, and the Gates Foundation.</p>\n<p>Finally, consider Ball CorporationBLL,-0.68%,the world’s largest manufacturer of recyclable containers.&nbsp; Founded in the late 1800s by two brother-entrepreneurs who foresaw that the Mason jar patent was about to expire and built a glassblowing facility to manufacture such jars.</p>\n<p>Ball remains characterized by a culture of family, innovation and natural-resources conscientiousness. For instance, Ball foresaw the ecological and commercial need to pivot away from PET and glass containers, both costly to recycle and posing environmental damage, and towards eco-friendly and profitable aluminum. The company adopts economic value added (EVA) to assure every dollar is well-spent, long-term employee incentive compensation to reward long-term sustainable growth, and a spirit of entrepreneurial freedom. QSs include: Chilton Investment Co.; T. Rowe Price; Wellington&nbsp;Management Group and&nbsp;Winslow Capital Management.</p>\n<p>While some investors focus solely on the bottom line and others only on signals of corporate virtue, QSs are holistic, considering the inherent relationship between trust and long-term value. Nebulous as the notion of trust in corporate culture might seem, it’s a profitable as well as ethical value to probe.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Comparing the two, more than one-fourth of the top TAA companies are in the top decile of the QSI; two-thirds are in the top quarter, and all but two (92%) are in the top half.\nNotably, both the TAA top 10 and the QSI Top 25 outperformed the S&P 500 by 30% and 50%, respectively, in recent five-year periods. Here’s a sampling of companies scoring high on both trust and quality:\nTexas InstrumentsTXN,+0.72%makes most of its revenue selling computer chips and is among the world’s largest manufacturers of semiconductors. Founded by a group of electrical engineers in 1951, the company boasts a culture of intelligent innovation. Its business is protected by four protective “moats” including: manufacturing and technology skill thanks to its employees; a broad portfolio of processing chips to meet a wide range of customer needs; the reach of its market channels thanks to both, and its diversity and longevity.\nFor investors, this adds up to a winning recipe, particularly when combined with Texas Instruments’s capital management strategy, which is to maximize the company’s long-term growth in free cash-flow per share and to allocate such capital in accordance with the QS playbook that prioritizes wise reinvestment, disciplined acquisitions, low-priced share buybacks and shareholder dividends. Some of the company’s notable QSs include: Alliance Bernstein, Bessemer Group, Capital World Investors, State Farm Mutual, and T. Rowe Price Group.\nAnother stock on this list, EcolabECL,+0.77%,is a global leader in water treatment. Founded in 1923 as the Economics Laboratory, its long-term outlook shows in the longevity of senior leadership: the company has had just seven CEOs in almost 100 years of existence.\nThose CEOs inculcated a culture of customer care, a relentless focus on helping customers solve problems and meet goals. A learning organization, such a performance culture permeates the business from production to sales, as employees commit to the long-term goal of being indispensable to customers. Management rewards that employee conviction with long-term incentives and a high degree of autonomy. Ecolab’s QSs include: Cantillon Capital, Clearbridge Investments, Franklin Resources, and the Gates Foundation.\nFinally, consider Ball CorporationBLL,-0.68%,the world’s largest manufacturer of recyclable containers.  Founded in the late 1800s by two brother-entrepreneurs who foresaw that the Mason jar patent was about to expire and built a glassblowing facility to manufacture such jars.\nBall remains characterized by a culture of family, innovation and natural-resources conscientiousness. For instance, Ball foresaw the ecological and commercial need to pivot away from PET and glass containers, both costly to recycle and posing environmental damage, and towards eco-friendly and profitable aluminum. The company adopts economic value added (EVA) to assure every dollar is well-spent, long-term employee incentive compensation to reward long-term sustainable growth, and a spirit of entrepreneurial freedom. QSs include: Chilton Investment Co.; T. Rowe Price; Wellington Management Group and Winslow Capital Management.\nWhile some investors focus solely on the bottom line and others only on signals of corporate virtue, QSs are holistic, considering the inherent relationship between trust and long-term value. Nebulous as the notion of trust in corporate culture might seem, it’s a profitable as well as ethical value to probe.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":436,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"4087743833730310","authorId":"4087743833730310","name":"股市专家","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71eff74c31d436d084b9b4cb5c912a1f","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"4087743833730310","idStr":"4087743833730310"},"content":"Help me like my post:)","text":"Help me like my post:)","html":"Help me like my post:)"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982664406,"gmtCreate":1667175783205,"gmtModify":1676537870394,"author":{"id":"4087626579975990","authorId":"4087626579975990","name":"Cherry16","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087626579975990","idStr":"4087626579975990"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9982664406","repostId":"1196117566","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196117566","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1667174885,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1196117566?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-31 08:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Singapore Bourse Expected To Extend Winning Streak","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196117566","media":"rtt news","summary":"The Singapore stock market has finished higher in four straight sessions, collecting more than 90 po","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The Singapore stock market has finished higher in four straight sessions, collecting more than 90 points or 3 percent along the way.

Period. Indeed, with a few exceptions, investors should steer clear of these uber-cheap stocks, which typically trade over-the-counter and not on a major exchange.</p>\n<p>Call them penny stocks, microcaps or OTC stocks; by any name, they’re bad news. Promises of quick and easy riches are easier to fall for when an investment can be made with so little money up front. An investor might think, \"How risky could it be?\"</p>\n<p>Plenty. Per the Securities and Exchange Commission: “Academic studies find that OTC stocks tend to be highly illiquid; are frequent targets of alleged market manipulation; generate negative and volatile investment returns on average; and rarely grow into a large company or transition to listing on a stock exchange.”</p>\n<p>We’ll break down what all that means below, but suffice to say, the SEC is not a fan.</p>\n<h3><b>Why Penny Stocks Are So Dangerous</b></h3>\n<p>To be clear, this is not to say that every penny stock or OTC company is a scam. The danger is that the over-the-counter market is where the scam stocks live. Think of it as a bad neighborhood. Being there can make you a mark for a con.</p>\n<p>For some background, the OTC market is different from exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, where trading is centralized. There is no one OTC exchange. Instead, the OTC connects buyers and sellers over a computer- and telephone-based system. Any stock that does not trade on the NYSE, Nasdaq or other established U.S. exchange can trade over-the-counter. These securities also are known as “unlisted stocks.”</p>\n<p>Typically, OTC stocks tend to be highly risky microcap stocks (the shares of small companies with market capitalizations of under $300 million), which include nanocap stocks (those with market values of under $50 million).</p>\n<p>The SEC has long warned investors about the high risks associated with such stocks. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the industry’s self-regulatory agency, likewise waves a red flag over the buying and trading of OTC securities.</p>\n<p>That’s because companies that list on the OTC aren’t required to file periodic or audited financial reports as they must do if they are listed on a major exchange, such as the NYSE or the Nasdaq. In other words, there’s no way to know if they’re telling the truth when they claim to have sales and profits. The major exchanges also have listing requirements; OTC stocks don’t. For example, a company must have at least 400 shareholders and a market value of at least $40 million to get a listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The OTC makes no such requirements.</p>\n<p>Put it all together, and it makes it easier for unscrupulous managers to lie about their business prospects or commit securities fraud.</p>\n<p>But that’s not all. The shares that exchange hands on the OTC tend to be “illiquid,” meaning they often trade in low volumes and have a limited number of buyers and sellers. That can make it difficult or impossible for investors to buy or sell shares at the prices they want.</p>\n<p>That lack of liquidity also makes many OTC stocks the perfect vehicle for “pump-and-dump” schemes where stock promoters lure investors to buy shares, increasing the stock price. Then, when the price gets high enough, the pumper sells his shares, causing the stock to fall and leaving investors with poor returns, or even losses. Anyone here see&nbsp;<i>The Wolf of Wall Street</i>?</p>\n<p>To protect investors from falling for these schemes, the SEC suspended trading of more than 800 microcap stocks – more than 8% of the OTC market – between 2012 and 2015. Once a stock has been suspended from trading, it cannot be relisted unless the company provides updated financial information to prove it’s actually operational. Since that rarely happens, trading suspensions essentially render the shares useless to scam artists.</p>\n<h3><b>Legitimate OTCs</b></h3>\n<p>Be that as it may, there is one segment of the OTC market that investors need not fear.</p>\n<p>Amidst the riff-raff, some of the biggest, most respected foreign companies in the world list their U.S. shares over-the-counter instead of on the major U.S. exchanges. Here, you’ll find shares of&nbsp;<b>The <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IDCBY\">Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd.</a></b>&nbsp;(IDCBY), which happens to be the biggest bank in the world. You also can buy shares of Switzerland’s<b>Nestlé</b>(NSRGY), the largest food company in the world; China’s&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCEHY\">Tencent Holding Ltd.</a></b>&nbsp;(TCEHY), one of the country’s largest internet service providers; and Japanese gaming giant&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NTDOY\">Nintendo Co., Ltd.</a> </b>(NTDOY).</p>\n<p>Why would major, international publicly traded companies rub shoulders with firms that issue highly speculative penny stocks?</p>\n<p>The reason has to do with cost and convenience. For example, a foreign firm listing on the NYSE or Nasdaq must prepare two sets of audited financial statements for everything it does – one to conform with international accounting standards, and another that adheres to the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) used in the U.S. That isn’t a requirement over-the-counter.</p>\n<p>With an OTC listing, a foreign company gains access to the vast pool of U.S. equity investors at a fraction of the cost and effort.</p>\n<p>The bottom line is that with the exception of large, established foreign firms, OTC stocks come with too many risks.

Period. Indeed, with a few exceptions, investors should steer clear of these uber-cheap stocks, which typically trade over-the-counter and not on a major exchange.\nCall them penny stocks, microcaps or OTC stocks; by any name, they’re bad news. Promises of quick and easy riches are easier to fall for when an investment can be made with so little money up front. An investor might think, \"How risky could it be?\"\nPlenty. Per the Securities and Exchange Commission: “Academic studies find that OTC stocks tend to be highly illiquid; are frequent targets of alleged market manipulation; generate negative and volatile investment returns on average; and rarely grow into a large company or transition to listing on a stock exchange.”\nWe’ll break down what all that means below, but suffice to say, the SEC is not a fan.\nWhy Penny Stocks Are So Dangerous\nTo be clear, this is not to say that every penny stock or OTC company is a scam. The danger is that the over-the-counter market is where the scam stocks live. Think of it as a bad neighborhood. Being there can make you a mark for a con.\nFor some background, the OTC market is different from exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, where trading is centralized. There is no one OTC exchange. Instead, the OTC connects buyers and sellers over a computer- and telephone-based system. Any stock that does not trade on the NYSE, Nasdaq or other established U.S. exchange can trade over-the-counter. These securities also are known as “unlisted stocks.”\nTypically, OTC stocks tend to be highly risky microcap stocks (the shares of small companies with market capitalizations of under $300 million), which include nanocap stocks (those with market values of under $50 million).\nThe SEC has long warned investors about the high risks associated with such stocks. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the industry’s self-regulatory agency, likewise waves a red flag over the buying and trading of OTC securities.\nThat’s because companies that list on the OTC aren’t required to file periodic or audited financial reports as they must do if they are listed on a major exchange, such as the NYSE or the Nasdaq. In other words, there’s no way to know if they’re telling the truth when they claim to have sales and profits. The major exchanges also have listing requirements; OTC stocks don’t. For example, a company must have at least 400 shareholders and a market value of at least $40 million to get a listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The OTC makes no such requirements.\nPut it all together, and it makes it easier for unscrupulous managers to lie about their business prospects or commit securities fraud.\nBut that’s not all. The shares that exchange hands on the OTC tend to be “illiquid,” meaning they often trade in low volumes and have a limited number of buyers and sellers. That can make it difficult or impossible for investors to buy or sell shares at the prices they want.\nThat lack of liquidity also makes many OTC stocks the perfect vehicle for “pump-and-dump” schemes where stock promoters lure investors to buy shares, increasing the stock price. Then, when the price gets high enough, the pumper sells his shares, causing the stock to fall and leaving investors with poor returns, or even losses. Anyone here see The Wolf of Wall Street?\nTo protect investors from falling for these schemes, the SEC suspended trading of more than 800 microcap stocks – more than 8% of the OTC market – between 2012 and 2015. Once a stock has been suspended from trading, it cannot be relisted unless the company provides updated financial information to prove it’s actually operational. Since that rarely happens, trading suspensions essentially render the shares useless to scam artists.\nLegitimate OTCs\nBe that as it may, there is one segment of the OTC market that investors need not fear.\nAmidst the riff-raff, some of the biggest, most respected foreign companies in the world list their U.S. shares over-the-counter instead of on the major U.S. exchanges. Here, you’ll find shares of The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd. (IDCBY), which happens to be the biggest bank in the world. You also can buy shares of Switzerland’sNestlé(NSRGY), the largest food company in the world; China’s Tencent Holding Ltd. (TCEHY), one of the country’s largest internet service providers; and Japanese gaming giant Nintendo Co., Ltd. (NTDOY).\nWhy would major, international publicly traded companies rub shoulders with firms that issue highly speculative penny stocks?\nThe reason has to do with cost and convenience. For example, a foreign firm listing on the NYSE or Nasdaq must prepare two sets of audited financial statements for everything it does – one to conform with international accounting standards, and another that adheres to the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) used in the U.S. That isn’t a requirement over-the-counter.\nWith an OTC listing, a foreign company gains access to the vast pool of U.S. equity investors at a fraction of the cost and effort.\nThe bottom line is that with the exception of large, established foreign firms, OTC stocks come with too many risks. It’s not possible for the average investor to know if the company is on the up and up. And even legitimate tiny companies can fail virtually overnight. The pitfalls of trading OTC stocks just aren’t worth it.\nIt’s easy enough to lose money investing in stocks.
