Put simply, AR is the ability to combine the real world with a digital one. Two prominent examples of this technology are the popular mobile game Pokémon Go and the app Snapchat.Because there are already use cases for AR, it's easy to see this as more of an ongoing trend than a passing fad. Therefore, it's natural for future-minded investors to seek ways to invest in the space. There are two companies that I think are particularly well positioned to be at the center of AR for years to come: Apple and Nvidia. Let's see which is the better stock to own.1. AppleAlready one of the largest companies in the world, Apple has made an indelible mark on our society with its line of consumer electronics like phones, tablets, smartwatches, and computers. Part of what has made Apple so successful is its ability to consistently innovate and enter new product lines. At any given time, there are numerous rumors swirling around about what might be Apple's next big product.Apple has long been expected to release some kind of AR product, likely in the form of glasses or goggles. Recently, Apple CEO Tim Cook made comments that seem to indicate something may be on the horizon, teasing, \"I couldn't be more excited about the opportunities we've seen in this space. And sort of stay tuned and you'll see what we have to offer.\"To be clear, rumors and vague interview comments are not an investing thesis, but Apple does have a track record of launching new products that go on to see great success. Additionally, Apple has been a player in this space for years, introducing AR capabilities on its iPhone and iPad starting in 2017.Even without a confirmed AR product, Apple continues to be a good investment. In the second quarter of 2022, Apple posted a record $93.7 billion in quarterly revenue, a 9% year-over-year increase. That comes on top of 54% revenue growth in the year-ago quarter, and was driven by year-over-year growth in every product category other than the iPad. Additionally, Apple is trading for a price to earnings (P/E) multiple of 23, which is slightly below the S&P 500's average of 24.2. NvidiaFrom its start building PC graphics cards, Nvidia has grown to be a leading provider of chips for a variety of use cases, including gaming, data centers, and the automotive industry. As it pertains to AR, Nvidia's technology is already being used in a variety of ways by large enterprise customers. Nvidia's chips are powering virtual car showrooms, surgical training, and architectural walkthroughs, showing the everyday use cases for this technology.One of the most commonly cited consumer uses for AR is in gaming, which comprises approximately 43% of Nvidia's sales. In Q1 of 2023, gaming revenue was a record $3.6 billion, good for a 31% year-over-year increase. One of the Nvidia products that led to this growth was its Nvidia RTX technology, which can help deliver AR experiences over 5G networks. As AR expands in the gaming space, Nvidia stands to benefit from the secular tailwinds.Even after the tech sell-off we've seen this year, Nvidia trades at a premium, with its current P/E at 41. However, that is the lowest that multiple has been since late 2019. Nvidia grew its revenue more than 46%, is profitable, and generated more than $1 billion in free cash flow in Q1, so this premium price is to be expected.Which is the better buy?From a valuation standpoint, it could be argued that Apple is a bargain at its current valuation. That said, until we see an actual AR product, its role in this emerging technology is uncertain. For that reason, I think Nvidia is the better AR stock. It's already producing the chips that are powering AR technologies in a variety of industries and doesn't rely on one consumer product for its AR exposure. For investors who feel the premium valuation is worth it, Nvidia is my pick for the better augmented reality stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":1,"NVDA":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1978,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9045658738,"gmtCreate":1656623051824,"gmtModify":1676535862953,"author":{"id":"4089081450453300","authorId":"4089081450453300","name":"JokerForever","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089081450453300","authorIdStr":"4089081450453300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏻👍🏻","listText":"👍🏻👍🏻","text":"👍🏻👍🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9045658738","repostId":"1188337337","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1188337337","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1656582492,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1188337337?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-30 17:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Best Stocks to Invest in During a Recession","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188337337","media":"Simply Wall St","summary":"Key TakeawaysMany are anticipating theUnited States are hurtling towards a recession,which could sig","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/12cda0dd163568647315b997b0a70cd8\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"411\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Key Takeaways</h2><ul><li>Many are anticipating theUnited States are hurtling towards a recession,which could signal continues struggles for capital markets.</li><li>When recessions cause economies to contract and spending to tighten, businesses offering goods and services that are essential to our day-to-day lives should exhibit some resiliance.</li><li>Retailers dealing in consumer staples, utilities companies and government contractors offer some operate in industries that see little demand when the economy enters into a period of turbulence.</li></ul><p>Recessions are difficult times for investors and capital markets. These periods are characterized by a sustained economic contraction caused by a drop in economic activity. Businesses are impacted as demand, capital investment and consumer spending decline as a response to difficult economic conditions.</p><p>When demand and the velocity of expenditure trend downwards, earnings are usually heavily impacted and the consequences are fe. While these conditions pose difficulty for all businesses operating in this environment, some businesses offer some resistance relative to the rest of the market during these periods. Here are our answers to the question: which stocks are the best to invest in during a recession?</p><h2>Costco Wholesale - Wholesale Retailer of Consumer Staples</h2><p><i>Thesis: Consumer staples like groceries, clothing and household goods will see very little change in their demand because they are vital to the lives of consumers. The top line of consumer staple retailers will be largely unaffected by economic recessions.</i></p><p>Why Costco Provides Opportunities in Recessions:</p><p><b>Costco’s (NASDAQ:COST)</b>operations should be fairly resistant to the pressures of an economic recession, providing consumers with the necessities they need at wholesale pricing. This should be favorable to Costco as consumers become more price conscious as household budgets tighten. The business has remained favorable among investors over the recent market downturn, providing shareholders with +21.2% returns over the previous 12 months, compared to the -1.8% returns seen by the wider US Consumer Retailing industry.</p><p>The most recent example of a recession we can turn to was the COVID-19 recession where economies were plunged into economic turmoil owing to the precautionary measures taken to protect the population. During this period of tightening consumer spending, Costco remained largely unaffected.<img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/85bdac858367bea4382531a16b9b6218\" tg-width=\"821\" tg-height=\"560\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><h2>Raytheon Technologies - Government Contractor for Defense</h2><p><i>Thesis: Government expenditure on military is usually high and remains consistent during economic recessions. Companies with lucrative government contracts should out-perform the market due to relatively unchanged levels of customer expenditure.</i></p><p>Why Raytheon Provides Opportunities in Recessions:</p><p><b>Raytheon (NYSE:RTX)</b>is one of the largest aerospace and defense companies servicing the United States and other Governments across the globe. In a time characterized by tense geo-political relations, Raytheon's position within the market as a leader in the defense sector will help ensure ongoing resistance and consistent demand throughout market turmoil.</p><p>Givenglobal military spending has eclipsed US$2 trillionin real terms for the first time in history, countries will be hesitant to budge on defense expenditure even when pressure is placed on national budgets to ensure strategic advantage is not lost. This provides a large and growing addressable market for Raytheon's products.</p><p>Raytheon Missiles & Defense, a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies, has continued to secure lucrative contract awards over the last few months which should provide revenue security into the near future. In the last 30 days alone, Raytheon has managed to secure aUS$867M Missile Defense Agency contract to deliver SM-3 Block IIAs to the United States and partnersand aUS$624M U.S. Army contract to produce 1,300 Stinger missiles.This should give investors some peace of mind that the business remains strong during in a tough economic climate.</p><p>One other important thing to note is that Raytheon has been continually paying a dividend to shareholders - a good sign of a mature and profitable business. With the currentdividend yield of 2.4%forecasted to grow into the future, shareholders will be appreciative of the guaranteed capital return when the market is providing little else in the way of certainties.</p><h2><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/96830cd3d9c65202d4a545e3743bf3de\" tg-width=\"821\" tg-height=\"508\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>NRG Energy - Electrical Utilities Provider</h2><p><i>Thesis: Much like consumer staples, electricity is a necessity for households regardless of the economic climate. The demand for electricity is relatively inelastic and so generators and suppliers will see relative strength compared to the rest of the market.</i></p><p>Why NRG Energy Perform Well During A Recession:</p><p><b>NRG Energy (NYSE:NRG)</b>is one of the largest integrated utility companies in North America, providing electrical services to over 6 million customers throughout the United States and Canada. NRG Energy boasts a diverse generation portfolio of natural gas, coal, oil, nuclear and renewable operations which should help maintain relevance in an energy landscape that is shifting from fossil fuels.</p><p>If we take a look back at NRG Energy's income statement over the last few years, we can see relative resilience in the business, exhibiting no top-line decline throughout the COVID-19 recession. In fact, lockdown measures seemingly were a boon for the business, as earnings grew appreciably for the period.<img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/60902b171c9323dccf7bf450bb68a318\" tg-width=\"821\" tg-height=\"560\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>In our analysis of NRG Energy's debts, we've noted that the company's net debt to equity ratio is quite high. Rising interests pose a potential risk to the business, but how well can NRG Energy cover their liabilities?

Providers of funeral services and cemetery operators should not experience a noticeable change in overall demand for their offerings.</i></p><p>Why Service Corporation International Will Benefit:</p><p><b>Service Corp (NYSE:SCI)</b>is a leading provider of funeral, cremation and cemetery services throughout North America. The company is firmly the largest operator in the death-care industry, comprising of around 15% of the total market share by revenue across the United States and Canada.</p><p>Service Corp’s first quarter performance in 2022 has been robust, with the company growing its quarterly revenue to US$1.112B, up US$34M compared to this time last year. Importantly, Service Corp has experienced growth across its core revenue drivers, seeing average revenue per funeral service grow by 5%, pre-need funeral sales grow 17% and pre-need cemetery sales grow 11% since the first quarter of 2021.</p><p>Taking a step back and looking at Service Corp’s performance over the last 5 years yields positive results. The company’s annual earnings growth over the preceding 5 years of 14.8% outpaced both industry and market. This period does encapsulate the COVID-19 recession, however, the nature of the pandemic lead to a windfall as the increased mortality rates spurred growth for Service Corp in the face of difficult economic conditions.</p><p><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/61e6751e9d475da459882c4299c6a71a\" tg-width=\"821\" tg-height=\"560\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>It’s difficult to determine how the company will fair should a recession eventuate, but recent guidance from Service Corp expects that the remainder of the year will yield strong results, given the company raised the midpoint of its 2022 adjusted earnings guidance by 50 cents to $3.50 and the midpoint of its adjusted operating cash flow guidance by US$75M to US$775M. The company attributes this to more funeral services being performed and higher pre-need cemetery sales. It’s fair to say that the company expects to navigate the tightening economic conditions very well owing to continuous demand. If a recession occurs, revenue per funeral may decrease however this should be offset by the tailwinds of an ageing population and recent acquisitions bearing their fruit.</p><p>Despite the company’s strong guidance for the remainder of the year, our analysis on Service Corporation International’s ownership concludes that company insiders have only sold shares over the previous 3 months.

Slowing economic growth impacts businesses across the board and discovering investment opportunities becomes increasingly difficult - but not impossible. Businesses that provide households with the neccessities they need to survive, or businesses that operate in a segment with extremely inelastic demand offer the most resilience during recessions.</p><p>A recession may be on the horizon, but it's important to note that the macro-economic environment in which we find ourselves is quite different to previous recessions.

These periods are characterized by a sustained economic contraction caused by a drop in economic activity. Businesses are impacted as demand, capital investment and consumer spending decline as a response to difficult economic conditions.When demand and the velocity of expenditure trend downwards, earnings are usually heavily impacted and the consequences are fe. While these conditions pose difficulty for all businesses operating in this environment, some businesses offer some resistance relative to the rest of the market during these periods. Here are our answers to the question: which stocks are the best to invest in during a recession?Costco Wholesale - Wholesale Retailer of Consumer StaplesThesis: Consumer staples like groceries, clothing and household goods will see very little change in their demand because they are vital to the lives of consumers. The top line of consumer staple retailers will be largely unaffected by economic recessions.Why Costco Provides Opportunities in Recessions:Costco’s (NASDAQ:COST)operations should be fairly resistant to the pressures of an economic recession, providing consumers with the necessities they need at wholesale pricing. This should be favorable to Costco as consumers become more price conscious as household budgets tighten. The business has remained favorable among investors over the recent market downturn, providing shareholders with +21.2% returns over the previous 12 months, compared to the -1.8% returns seen by the wider US Consumer Retailing industry.The most recent example of a recession we can turn to was the COVID-19 recession where economies were plunged into economic turmoil owing to the precautionary measures taken to protect the population. During this period of tightening consumer spending, Costco remained largely unaffected.Raytheon Technologies - Government Contractor for DefenseThesis: Government expenditure on military is usually high and remains consistent during economic recessions. Companies with lucrative government contracts should out-perform the market due to relatively unchanged levels of customer expenditure.Why Raytheon Provides Opportunities in Recessions:Raytheon (NYSE:RTX)is one of the largest aerospace and defense companies servicing the United States and other Governments across the globe. In a time characterized by tense geo-political relations, Raytheon's position within the market as a leader in the defense sector will help ensure ongoing resistance and consistent demand throughout market turmoil.Givenglobal military spending has eclipsed US$2 trillionin real terms for the first time in history, countries will be hesitant to budge on defense expenditure even when pressure is placed on national budgets to ensure strategic advantage is not lost. This provides a large and growing addressable market for Raytheon's products.Raytheon Missiles & Defense, a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies, has continued to secure lucrative contract awards over the last few months which should provide revenue security into the near future. In the last 30 days alone, Raytheon has managed to secure aUS$867M Missile Defense Agency contract to deliver SM-3 Block IIAs to the United States and partnersand aUS$624M U.S. Army contract to produce 1,300 Stinger missiles.This should give investors some peace of mind that the business remains strong during in a tough economic climate.One other important thing to note is that Raytheon has been continually paying a dividend to shareholders - a good sign of a mature and profitable business. With the currentdividend yield of 2.4%forecasted to grow into the future, shareholders will be appreciative of the guaranteed capital return when the market is providing little else in the way of certainties.NRG Energy - Electrical Utilities ProviderThesis: Much like consumer staples, electricity is a necessity for households regardless of the economic climate. The demand for electricity is relatively inelastic and so generators and suppliers will see relative strength compared to the rest of the market.Why NRG Energy Perform Well During A Recession:NRG Energy (NYSE:NRG)is one of the largest integrated utility companies in North America, providing electrical services to over 6 million customers throughout the United States and Canada. NRG Energy boasts a diverse generation portfolio of natural gas, coal, oil, nuclear and renewable operations which should help maintain relevance in an energy landscape that is shifting from fossil fuels.If we take a look back at NRG Energy's income statement over the last few years, we can see relative resilience in the business, exhibiting no top-line decline throughout the COVID-19 recession. In fact, lockdown measures seemingly were a boon for the business, as earnings grew appreciably for the period.In our analysis of NRG Energy's debts, we've noted that the company's net debt to equity ratio is quite high. Rising interests pose a potential risk to the business, but how well can NRG Energy cover their liabilities? Find out by checking out our analysis ofNRG Energy's Financial Health.Service Corporation International - Funeral Services ProviderThesis: An unfortunate fact of life is that death is a certainty and this definitely does not change during recessions. Providers of funeral services and cemetery operators should not experience a noticeable change in overall demand for their offerings.Why Service Corporation International Will Benefit:Service Corp (NYSE:SCI)is a leading provider of funeral, cremation and cemetery services throughout North America. The company is firmly the largest operator in the death-care industry, comprising of around 15% of the total market share by revenue across the United States and Canada.Service Corp’s first quarter performance in 2022 has been robust, with the company growing its quarterly revenue to US$1.112B, up US$34M compared to this time last year. Importantly, Service Corp has experienced growth across its core revenue drivers, seeing average revenue per funeral service grow by 5%, pre-need funeral sales grow 17% and pre-need cemetery sales grow 11% since the first quarter of 2021.Taking a step back and looking at Service Corp’s performance over the last 5 years yields positive results. The company’s annual earnings growth over the preceding 5 years of 14.8% outpaced both industry and market. This period does encapsulate the COVID-19 recession, however, the nature of the pandemic lead to a windfall as the increased mortality rates spurred growth for Service Corp in the face of difficult economic conditions.It’s difficult to determine how the company will fair should a recession eventuate, but recent guidance from Service Corp expects that the remainder of the year will yield strong results, given the company raised the midpoint of its 2022 adjusted earnings guidance by 50 cents to $3.50 and the midpoint of its adjusted operating cash flow guidance by US$75M to US$775M. The company attributes this to more funeral services being performed and higher pre-need cemetery sales. It’s fair to say that the company expects to navigate the tightening economic conditions very well owing to continuous demand. If a recession occurs, revenue per funeral may decrease however this should be offset by the tailwinds of an ageing population and recent acquisitions bearing their fruit.Despite the company’s strong guidance for the remainder of the year, our analysis on Service Corporation International’s ownership concludes that company insiders have only sold shares over the previous 3 months.

Slowing economic growth impacts businesses across the board and discovering investment opportunities becomes increasingly difficult - but not impossible. Businesses that provide households with the neccessities they need to survive, or businesses that operate in a segment with extremely inelastic demand offer the most resilience during recessions.A recession may be on the horizon, but it's important to note that the macro-economic environment in which we find ourselves is quite different to previous recessions. Inflation is running hotter than it's been in the last 40 years and interest rates are on the rise to try and fight this.

There's a tremendous amount of unfinished homes, but there's a very low supply of finished homes.Top Fed officials also expect that rate to top 3% in 2022, according to the dot plot in its latest Summary of Economic Projections","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9054907035,"gmtCreate":1655336389527,"gmtModify":1676535614873,"author":{"id":"4089081450453300","authorId":"4089081450453300","name":"JokerForever","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089081450453300","authorIdStr":"4089081450453300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏻👍🏻","listText":"👍🏻👍🏻","text":"👍🏻👍🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9054907035","repostId":"2243941466","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2243941466","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":1655324396,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2243941466?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-16 04:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Wall Street Rallies to Close Higher After Fed Statement","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2243941466","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - The S&P 500 rallied on Wednesday to snap a five-session losing skid after a policy annou","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - The S&P 500 rallied on Wednesday to snap a five-session losing skid after a policy announcement by the Federal Reserve that raised interest rates to market expectations as the central bank seeks to fight rising inflation without sparking a recession.</p><p>The Federal Reserve raised its target interest rate by three-quarters of a percentage point, its biggest rate hike since 1994, and projected a slowing economy and rising unemployment in the months to come.</p><p>Equities were volatile after the announcement, before decidedly turning higher after Chair Jerome Powell said in his press conference that either 50 basis points or 75 basis points were most likely at the next meeting in July but that he did not expect hikes of 75 basis points to be common.</p><p>"Once the Fed chairman said that there could be a similar 75 basis point increase at the next meeting, that's when the market rose," said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research in New York.</p><p>"It is sort of a vote of confidence that the Fed is finally awake to the inflation problem and is willing to take a more aggressive stance."</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 303.7 points, or 1%, to 30,668.53, the S&P 500 gained 54.51 points, or 1.46%, to 3,789.99 and the Nasdaq Composite added 270.81 points, or 2.5%, to 11,099.16.</p><p>The five-session losing streak for the S&P 500 was its longest since early January.</p><p>Investors had quickly raised their expectations that the central bank would hike rates by 75 basis points (bps) over the past several days following a stronger than expected reading of consumer prices on Friday.

As you can see from the following chart, the NASDAQ 100 index suffered more than a 30% correction YTD. AAPLshares are more resistant but still retreated by more than 25% also. The combination of price retreat and earnings growth has now brought it FW PE to about 21.4x, almost at most attractive level in a decade.</p><p>On the business side, its fundamentals remain strong, probably even stronger than it was at the beginning of the year. A highlight involves the M2 chip officially released during itsWWDC2022Apple Developer Conference in early June. As to be elaborated immediately below, I see the M2 chip as a key to unlocking its next new growth cycle. It will further augment its already powerful product lineups, catalyze new products, and ultimately maintain AAPL's pricing power and profitability for years to come.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/057e675caa977beadeafe38b691f7305\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"431\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p><b>M1, M2, and AAPL's strategic shift</b></p><p>Roll back two years to 2000, AAPL's WWDC presentation announced its plan to shift to its own chips. The shift of the Macintosh line is expected to take about 2 years, which would be 2022. Shortly after the announcement, AAPL achieved wild success with the M1 chips not only in its Mac product line but also in the tablet line. The success boosted sales by 15% despite supply chain difficulties. As CEO Tim Cook commented in the 2022Q2 earnings report(the emphases were added by me):</p><blockquote>Last month we announced<b>another breakthrough with M1 Ultra, the world's most powerful chip for a personal computer.</b>The incredible customer response to our M1-powered Macs helped<b>propel a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue, despite supply constraints.</b>We now have our most powerful Mac lineup ever, with the addition of the entirely new Mac Studio.</blockquote><p>Now looking forward, M2 is even more powerful, more energy-efficient, and better positions AAPL for the megatrend toward mobile computing. According to the following specifications provided by CPU Ninja, under the same power consumption, the M2 packs 20 billion transistors (25% more than the M1) and provides 100GB/s memory speed (50% faster than M1). And its CPU performance is 18% higher than M1, and its GPU performance is 35% faster.</p><p>These technical improvements will be directly reflected in its end products to benefit end-users, as discussed next.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ca532287899df6818ac86a496c2b6f80\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: CPU Ninja</p><p><b>Pricing power continues and M3</b></p><p>Thanks to the performance boost and power efficiency, the M2 chip dramatically improved end products, both hardware, and software. For example, with the M2, AAPL's new MacBook Air is 25% now smaller, thinner (only 11.3 mm thick 0.44 inch), and lighter (now it weighs only 1.24kg or 2.73 lbs).</p><p>Of course, it also will cost you more. The price of the new MacBook Air with an M2 chip starts at $1199, a price increase by $200 compared to the previous version with M1 chips, or a full 20% price increase. Yet, I firmly believe that consumers will still be flocking to buy based on past experiences with new AAPL products, as detailed in my earlier article below.</p><blockquote><i>Much has been written about how wonderful AAPL products have been. Here I just want to draw your attention to the following chart and use iPhone as an example to showcase AAPL's pricing power. It is a busy chart with quick a bit of information. My key takeaways are:</i></blockquote><p>Looking further out, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is said to be testing designs for the M3 processors. Using the more advanced 3nm technology, the M3 will feature even higher transistor density and more computing power.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2974a8c6fb1083d456f49aefc857a69c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"567\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: GSMARENA</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>Despite the strong business fundamentals and most powerful product lineup, AAPL is not for sale at an attractive valuation due to the recent corrections as aforementioned. As you can see from the following chart, its FW PE has fluctuated between a bottom of about 19.5x to a peak of about 29.6 in the past decade. And its average FW PE is about 24.6x. Currently, it is priced at 21.46x FW PE, about a 13% discount from its historical average.</p><p>Relative to the overall market, the current valuation of the Nasdaq 100 index is about 19.8x and S&P500 19.0x PE. So AAPL is only marginally above the overall market, by about 8% to 12%. I view such a small premium as mispricing. AAPL's profitability as measured by return on capital employed is above 100%, more than 5x of the average market. Its financial strength is way stronger than the majority of the stocks in the Nasdaq 100 index or S&P500 index. An 8% to 12% premium undervalues AAPL and provides a substantial margin of safety.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d6b337610734070d55b6bcaa81b3698\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"403\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p><b>Final Thoughts and Risks</b></p><p>Recent market corrections have brought APPL's valuation to a 13% discount from its historical average. Compared to the overall market, it is now for sale at only about 8% to 12% premium, which is clearly mispriced in my view given its far superior profitability and financial strength to the market average. On the business side, its fundamentals remain strong, arguably with the most powerful product lineup in its recent history. Particularly, the M2 (and M3 after that) will provide a strong catalyst to propel its innovation and new product design, and ultimately to maintain pricing power and profitability for years to come.</p><p>Finally, risks. I do not see any structural risks to AAPL. But in the near term, a recession is a tangible risk. Ramparting inflation and the market's expectation of the biggest Fed rate hike since 1994 could trigger a further correction or even a recession.

As you can see from the following chart, the NASDAQ 100 index suffered more than a 30% correction YTD. AAPLshares are more resistant but still retreated by more than 25% also. The combination of price retreat and earnings growth has now brought it FW PE to about 21.4x, almost at most attractive level in a decade.On the business side, its fundamentals remain strong, probably even stronger than it was at the beginning of the year. A highlight involves the M2 chip officially released during itsWWDC2022Apple Developer Conference in early June. As to be elaborated immediately below, I see the M2 chip as a key to unlocking its next new growth cycle. It will further augment its already powerful product lineups, catalyze new products, and ultimately maintain AAPL's pricing power and profitability for years to come.Seeking AlphaM1, M2, and AAPL's strategic shiftRoll back two years to 2000, AAPL's WWDC presentation announced its plan to shift to its own chips. The shift of the Macintosh line is expected to take about 2 years, which would be 2022. Shortly after the announcement, AAPL achieved wild success with the M1 chips not only in its Mac product line but also in the tablet line. The success boosted sales by 15% despite supply chain difficulties. As CEO Tim Cook commented in the 2022Q2 earnings report(the emphases were added by me):Last month we announcedanother breakthrough with M1 Ultra, the world's most powerful chip for a personal computer.The incredible customer response to our M1-powered Macs helpedpropel a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue, despite supply constraints.We now have our most powerful Mac lineup ever, with the addition of the entirely new Mac Studio.Now looking forward, M2 is even more powerful, more energy-efficient, and better positions AAPL for the megatrend toward mobile computing. According to the following specifications provided by CPU Ninja, under the same power consumption, the M2 packs 20 billion transistors (25% more than the M1) and provides 100GB/s memory speed (50% faster than M1). And its CPU performance is 18% higher than M1, and its GPU performance is 35% faster.These technical improvements will be directly reflected in its end products to benefit end-users, as discussed next.Source: CPU NinjaPricing power continues and M3Thanks to the performance boost and power efficiency, the M2 chip dramatically improved end products, both hardware, and software. For example, with the M2, AAPL's new MacBook Air is 25% now smaller, thinner (only 11.3 mm thick 0.44 inch), and lighter (now it weighs only 1.24kg or 2.73 lbs).Of course, it also will cost you more. The price of the new MacBook Air with an M2 chip starts at $1199, a price increase by $200 compared to the previous version with M1 chips, or a full 20% price increase. Yet, I firmly believe that consumers will still be flocking to buy based on past experiences with new AAPL products, as detailed in my earlier article below.Much has been written about how wonderful AAPL products have been. Here I just want to draw your attention to the following chart and use iPhone as an example to showcase AAPL's pricing power. It is a busy chart with quick a bit of information. My key takeaways are:Looking further out, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is said to be testing designs for the M3 processors. Using the more advanced 3nm technology, the M3 will feature even higher transistor density and more computing power.Source: GSMARENAValuationDespite the strong business fundamentals and most powerful product lineup, AAPL is not for sale at an attractive valuation due to the recent corrections as aforementioned. As you can see from the following chart, its FW PE has fluctuated between a bottom of about 19.5x to a peak of about 29.6 in the past decade. And its average FW PE is about 24.6x. Currently, it is priced at 21.46x FW PE, about a 13% discount from its historical average.Relative to the overall market, the current valuation of the Nasdaq 100 index is about 19.8x and S&P500 19.0x PE. So AAPL is only marginally above the overall market, by about 8% to 12%. I view such a small premium as mispricing. AAPL's profitability as measured by return on capital employed is above 100%, more than 5x of the average market. Its financial strength is way stronger than the majority of the stocks in the Nasdaq 100 index or S&P500 index. An 8% to 12% premium undervalues AAPL and provides a substantial margin of safety.Seeking AlphaFinal Thoughts and RisksRecent market corrections have brought APPL's valuation to a 13% discount from its historical average. Compared to the overall market, it is now for sale at only about 8% to 12% premium, which is clearly mispriced in my view given its far superior profitability and financial strength to the market average. On the business side, its fundamentals remain strong, arguably with the most powerful product lineup in its recent history. Particularly, the M2 (and M3 after that) will provide a strong catalyst to propel its innovation and new product design, and ultimately to maintain pricing power and profitability for years to come.Finally, risks. I do not see any structural risks to AAPL. But in the near term, a recession is a tangible risk. Ramparting inflation and the market's expectation of the biggest Fed rate hike since 1994 could trigger a further correction or even a recession. The ongoing Russian/Ukraine war and global supply chain disruptions further compound these issues and increase the odds of a recession. AAPL share prices would suffer together with the overall market as we've seen already. However, my view is that AAPL shares will fare better (relatively) given its strength and long-term investors should look past price actions and focus on fundamentals.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2119,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9055426226,"gmtCreate":1655304248265,"gmtModify":1676535608826,"author":{"id":"4089081450453300","authorId":"4089081450453300","name":"JokerForever","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089081450453300","authorIdStr":"4089081450453300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏻👍🏻","listText":"👍🏻👍🏻","text":"👍🏻👍🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9055426226","repostId":"2243654989","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2243654989","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1655305092,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2243654989?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-15 22:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy in a Bear Market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2243654989","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks pass the approval of the guru in Omaha.","content":"<div>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway has served as Warren Buffett's investment vehicle for over 50 years, and the legendary investor was busy buying shares of several stocks in the first quarter.Out of the dozens of ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/06/14/3-top-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy-in-bear-market/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

All three possess strong brands that can power through a rough economy and deliver great returns for decades.Iconic brands will survive hard timesJohn Ballard (Apple): If you're going to piggyback the greatest investor of all time, why not start with his biggest bet. At the end of the first quarter, Berkshire held 890 million shares of Apple worth $155 billion on March 31. It's one of the biggest investments Buffett has ever made.Years ago, investing in a company that makes pricey electronics might not have been the best move in a weak economy when people are cutting back on unnecessary expenditures. But Apple has become so entrenched in people's daily routine that it can be considered a relatively safe stock to hold through a bear market. That doesn't mean the stock won't fall further. The shares have already fallen 25% from their recent high, but successful investing only requires that you buy great businesses when they are available at fair prices and hold them for many years. That's Buffett's basic approach in a nutshell.It's hard not to see the value underpinning Apple. The stock trades at a reasonable value of 21.5 times earnings per share. Apple is not expensive, given that the average business has traded around 16 times earnings over the last century. Berkshire Hathaway even added slightly to its Apple stake in the last quarter, so Buffett, or one of his investing deputies, clearly views the stock as a good value right now.Apple has hit it out of the park with its line of Macs and iPads featuring the company's new proprietary M1 processors. In fact, in a quarter when total PC shipments slowed, Apple was one of the handful of manufacturers that gained market share in worldwide PC shipments in Q1 at the expense of the leaders Lenovo and HP.AAPL Cash from Operations (TTM) data by YCharts.Apple generates a mountain of cash from operations, which funds reinvestments in new products and technologies, and most importantly, growing dividends and share buybacks. Over the last five years, Apple has spent nearly $500 billion on capital returns to shareholders. Apple's tremendous stream of profits from selling products people love to use every day is a good reason to buy the stock in a bear market.Coca-Cola has become a staple in people's homes for decadesParkev Tatevosian (Coca-Cola): For several decades, Coca-Cola stock has been a mainstay in Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway portfolio. The iconic beverage brand has done an excellent job of sustaining its dominance at the top of the non-alcoholic drinks market. Millions, if not billions of people worldwide, have consumed one of Coca-Cola's portfolio of drinks daily.KO Revenue (Annual) data by YCharts.That has catapulted Coca-Cola to earning revenue of $38.6 billion in 2021. That was up 17% from the $33 billion it earned in 2020. Coca-Cola has established many exclusive relationships with away-from-home channels like restaurants, theme parks, and movie theaters. As a result, it suffered a revenue decrease due to the pandemic. The reverse is now playing out. Coca-Cola benefits as the world progresses against COVID-19, making people more comfortable leaving their homes.Meanwhile, Coca-Cola has worked on removing waste in its operations, which has boosted its operating profit margin from 22.4% in 2012 to 28.6% in 2021. That margin improvement is likely to play a crucial role in shareholder sentiment as rising inflation puts profit margins at risk in all types of businesses.KO Operating Margin (Annual) data by YCharts.Moreover, during a bear market, investors place greater importance on companies with sustainable profits. Given that consumers have, for decades, developed a habit of drinking one of Coca-Cola's beverages, it is unlikely they will break the pattern if they lose their job or have their incomes reduced. For those reasons, Coca-Cola is one of my top Warren Buffett stocks to buy during a bear market.When the market is down, stick with the bestJennifer Saibil (Amazon): Amazon stock has drawn a lot of attention recently because of its stock split. But this top stock is an excellent choice because of its well-run business and robust opportunities. When the market takes a turn for the worse, focusing on strong stocks that can survive is key to maintaining a solid portfolio.Stock split aside, Amazon has demonstrated its worth as a company in challenging times. It's the largest e-commerce company in the world, accounting for as much as 50% of all online sales. Although sales growth is slowing down, the company is still moving in the right direction, increasing sales 7% year over year in Q1.The company is definitely under some pressure right now. Between rising costs and wages, inflation, and huge investments to build up its capabilities to meet increasing demand at the beginning of the pandemic, Amazon posted a net loss in Q1. It would have posted an operating loss as well if not for the continued phenomenal performance of Amazon Web Services (AWS), which posted a 37% year-over-year increase in revenue and a 55% increase in operating income to $6.5 billion.But it's well positioned, and perhaps the best positioned of almost any company, to thrive when the chips are down. Despite a slight decline in Q1, its e-commerce unit is still posting massive sales. As of the last update, in April 2021, there were 200 million Prime users, but management said there were millions of new members added since then.

A strong balance sheet helps a lot, and it's even better if management is willing and able to adapt to a changing business environment.These are excellent qualities in the best of times as well. However, flexibility and a solid financial footing will separate the wheat from the chaff when the market turns bearish. These are the companies that will survive the longest and roughest of storms, looking like a winner amid the widespread wreckage on the other side.So if you expect the economy to continue the downtrend of the last six months, you should consider grabbing a few shares of Micron Technology and Alphabet right now. These businesses come with heaping helpings of the game-changing features mentioned above, and the deal gets even sweeter when the stocks are trading at fire-sale prices.A solid financial platformLet's get the numbers out of the way first.Google parent Alphabet has $20.9 billion of cash equivalents on its balance sheet, paired with just $14.8 billion in long-term debt. But that's not all. In a pinch, Alphabet could also sell off its marketable securities -- stocks, bonds, and other not-quite-cash assets -- valued at $113 billion at the end of March.So Alphabet carries liquid assets worth approximately 8 times as much as its long-term debt. If the cash flow spigot suddenly shuts off, these reserves would carry the company through many years or even decades of dark times.Memory-chip maker Micron should be a different story because it works in a different sector. Alphabet's operations are asset-light and highly profitable, while Micron invests billions of dollars in semiconductor manufacturing equipment every year. It's only fair to expect Micron's balance sheet to tilt heavily in the direction of massive debts and limited cash.But the company plays a different tune. As of March 3, Micron carried $10.1 billion of cash and short-term investments against just $7 billion in long-term debt. Yes, Micron's debt leverage is a little bit less comfortable than Alphabet's, but the company is in excellent financial shape considering the asset-rich sector it's in.Both Micron and Alphabet are also adding to their cash hoards, generating generous free cash flows every year:GOOG and MU Free Cash Flow data by YChartsKeeping an open mindFlexibility is the other half of my formula for long-term success in any type of market.I shouldn't need to remind you that Alphabet is the king of trying new ideas. Google's search and advertising services have made Alphabet one of the most valuable companies in the world, but management has long been planning for the next stage. The potential growth drivers of that stretch include the Waymo self-driving car business, health services from Verily Life Sciences, and high-speed internet connections by Google Fiber.The proliferation of future business ideas not named Google is the reason behind the name change to Alphabet in 2015. By disconnecting the corporate name from the Google brand, Alphabet set itself up to become a cross-sector conglomerate in the long run.In short, Alphabet keeps a stirringly open mind to new business ideas. Whatever comes next, the company will poke and prod at the new environment until it finds a healthy and profitable niche (or five). With the backing of that ultra-solid balance sheet, I see no reason why Alphabet shouldn't thrive through the next downturn and beyond.Micron isn't quite as adventurous as Alphabet, of course. Once again, the company has invested many billions in a global chip-making infrastructure and you can't just flip a switch to run that business in a totally different direction.But Micron has grown up from a smallish chipmaker in a highly fragmented industry to a leading supplier in a new era. There are only a couple of memory-chip companies left on the market after several rounds of pricing pressure, bankruptcies, buyouts, and consolidation. Micron has always emerged from these challenging cycles as a winner, picking up the ashes of its failed rivals in pennies-on-the-dollar bankruptcy auctions.The mature version of the memory industry that you see today has also been good for Micron. The sector as a whole has started to slow down the boom-and-bust cycles of low chip supplies, massive factory investments, and oversupply. Micron's strategy these days is to increase its manufacturing capacity in line with rising demand for memory chips, and no more.So Micron may not be leading the charge into unknown territory the way Alphabet does, but the company has a proven ability to adopt the right strategy for a variety of market conditions. That should keep Micron going strong for the long run, come chip shortages or low waters.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GOOG":0.9,"MU":0.9,"GOOGL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1990,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9058477028,"gmtCreate":1654901979264,"gmtModify":1676535528862,"author":{"id":"4089081450453300","authorId":"4089081450453300","name":"JokerForever","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089081450453300","authorIdStr":"4089081450453300"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏻👍🏻","listText":"👍🏻👍🏻","text":"👍🏻👍🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9058477028","repostId":"1151496939","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1670,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
