There are more \"things\" connected to the internet than there are people, and annual spending to manage this interconnected and still-expanding patchwork of electronic devices is worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.</p>\n<p>The IoT is a total feeding trough, and it can be difficult to sift through those companies that have a \"wide moat\" (those with a competitive edge over their peers) from those simply benefiting from a rising tide. Three Fool.com contributors are here to help, and think that Google parent <b>Alphabet </b>(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG), <b>MongoDB </b>(NASDAQ:MDB), and <b>Ouster </b>(NYSE:OUST) have a wide moat that separates them from the pack.</p>\n<h2>Sometimes the best competitive advantage is a mountain of cash</h2>\n<p><b>Nicholas Rossolillo (Alphabet): </b>Google is an inseparable part of the very fabric of the internet. Countless billions of web searches are made every day, and Google profits from its utilitarian tech service primarily via advertising. It isn't the sexiest business model, and it's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> that has come under fire in recent years -- but it isn't going away anytime soon. As the internet and its application in everyday life evolves in the decades to come, Google will be a utility company helping govern its basic functionality.</p>\n<p>Besides not really having any serious competition in web search itself (besides maybe <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> </b>(NASDAQ:FB), which dominates the social media side of the internet), Google has a mountain of cash. At the end of March 2021, it had over $135 billion in cash and equivalents, another $25.3 billion in non-marketable investments, offset by debt of only $13.9 billion. This is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the deepest-pocketed organizations on the planet, and it's still filling up its coffers. Total Google revenue was $197 billion over the last trailing-12-month stretch and had an operating profit margin of over 25%.</p>\n<p>Google funnels tens of billions every year into developing IoT technology -- like its Pixel smartphones and Nest smart home devices, as well as Fitbit, which it acquired at the beginning of 2021 for a meager sum (in Google terms) of $2.1 billion. More speculative investments include self-driving vehicle company Waymo and AI researcher DeepMind. Then there are IoT services like cloud and edge computing via Google Cloud, Google Pay, Google Fiber, and mobile provider Google Fi. The list goes on.</p>\n<p>The point is, Google is using its dominant internet search engine to power all sorts of other ancillary businesses. If I had to think of only one wide moat IoT business, I think Google is as close to bulletproof as they come.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F630438%2Fsmartphone-millennials-getty-6217.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"432\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Next-generation databases for the IoT age</h2>\n<p><b>Anders Bylund (MongoDB):</b> You know you have an insurmountable moat when the competitors you're disrupting are starting to copy you. It's even better if the traditionalists can't quite pin down why your groundbreaking technologies are doing so well in the market, causing their copycat ideas to miss the mark.</p>\n<p>That's where MongoDB stands today. The NoSQL database specialist has carved out an impressive market space for itself in the massive global market for database products and services. In particular, MongoDB's cloud-based Atlas platform is winning customers hand over fist. The ultra-flexible structure of NoSQL databases makes them perfect for managing messy and unstructured data, like the sensor readings and user inputs that come from IoT devices.</p>\n<p>MongoDB's sales rose 39% year over year in last week's first-quarter report. Atlas revenue skyrocketed 73% higher and now accounts for more than half of the company's total quarterly sales. This high-growth company is already generating positive free cash flows, setting the stage for further investments in business-boosting products and services as well as positive bottom-line earnings somewhere down the road.</p>\n<p>At the same time, SQL database giant <b>Oracle</b> (NYSE:ORCL) posted just 3% revenue growth in its latest quarterly report. Cloud-based services delivered just enough growth to make up for Oracle's lost contracts in the data center. Judging by Oracle's earnings call, cloud computing is the top priority at the expense of truly forward-looking development efforts. Management spent a lot of time on discussing cloud-based service delivery but never even mentioned customer deployments of converged databases, which is the closest thing Oracle has to a NoSQL solution. That's the wrong approach.</p>\n<p>So MongoDB's business is surging, and Oracle is just making a half-hearted attempt to keep up with the cool kids. The young upstart is stealing market share from the established competition, just as the IoT market enters an explosive growth phase of its own. Having the right database solution for this incredible target market should provide plenty of fuel for MongoDB's top-line growth in the years to come.</p>\n<h2>A new digital LiDAR company fresh off its SPAC and winning over new customers</h2>\n<p><b>Billy Duberstein (Ouster):</b> A main feature of the Internet of Things is the ability for machines to detect and respond to the world around them without human direction. One technology that will enable that functionality is LiDAR, a laser-based computer vision technology just coming into its own. You may know LiDAR from its use in self-driving cars, but the technology is also applicable for smart cities, factory automation, and robotics.</p>\n<p>Digital LiDAR company Ouster just merged with SPAC <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLA\">Colonnade Acquisition Corp</a>. in March, but is already making a big impression in 2021. Although the company generates minimal revenue today, its customer base is growing rapidly. Just since the fourth quarter 2020, Ouster's strategic customer agreements have quadrupled from 10 to 40, and its contracted revenue is up over 10 times, from $34 million to $385 million. Rapid price declines in digital LiDAR, combined with a tidal wave of demand for automation applications, could mean an inflection point for LiDAR companies generally and Ouster specifically.</p>\n<p>Ouster's advantage in LiDAR comes from a few different places. First, it has gone the digital route, which offers the potential for exponential improvement and greater simplicity versus analog LiDAR technology. The company has also chosen a single simple architecture that is configurable to each LiDAR application through software, allowing for efficient low-cost production even with customization for different end-markets.</p>\n<p>Additionally, while other LiDAR companies appear to be very focused on the self-driving car market, Ouster is actually just as focused across industrial automation, robotics, and smart cities as well. For instance, Ouster just won an exclusive smart city contract to supply speed enforcement systems in France. These other non-auto markets may actually be much more profitable than the autonomous vehicle market, which is not only more competitive but also proving very difficult to pull off.</p>\n<p>With a fresh $300 million from its SPAC deal, Ouster is ramping up production and accelerating its proprietary system-on-chip iteration from a two-year development cycle to a one-year development cycle. It may not be as strong a moat as in more established companies, but with a low-cost and flexible architecture, rapid speed of innovation, and large potential opportunity, Ouster may be developing into a consequential LiDAR company at the beginning of its adoption phase.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>These 3 Internet of Things Companies Have Incredibly Wide Moats</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\">\nThese 3 Internet of Things Companies Have Incredibly Wide Moats\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-14 08:11 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/13/these-3-internet-of-things-companies-have-incredib/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The Internet of Things -- or IoT, a catch-all phrase for devices getting connected to the internet or another private network -- is reaching mind-boggling proportions.

There are more \"things\" connected to the internet than there are people, and annual spending to manage this interconnected and still-expanding patchwork of electronic devices is worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.\nThe IoT is a total feeding trough, and it can be difficult to sift through those companies that have a \"wide moat\" (those with a competitive edge over their peers) from those simply benefiting from a rising tide. Three Fool.com contributors are here to help, and think that Google parent Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG), MongoDB (NASDAQ:MDB), and Ouster (NYSE:OUST) have a wide moat that separates them from the pack.\nSometimes the best competitive advantage is a mountain of cash\nNicholas Rossolillo (Alphabet): Google is an inseparable part of the very fabric of the internet. Countless billions of web searches are made every day, and Google profits from its utilitarian tech service primarily via advertising. It isn't the sexiest business model, and it's one that has come under fire in recent years -- but it isn't going away anytime soon. As the internet and its application in everyday life evolves in the decades to come, Google will be a utility company helping govern its basic functionality.\nBesides not really having any serious competition in web search itself (besides maybe Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), which dominates the social media side of the internet), Google has a mountain of cash. At the end of March 2021, it had over $135 billion in cash and equivalents, another $25.3 billion in non-marketable investments, offset by debt of only $13.9 billion. This is one of the deepest-pocketed organizations on the planet, and it's still filling up its coffers. Total Google revenue was $197 billion over the last trailing-12-month stretch and had an operating profit margin of over 25%.\nGoogle funnels tens of billions every year into developing IoT technology -- like its Pixel smartphones and Nest smart home devices, as well as Fitbit, which it acquired at the beginning of 2021 for a meager sum (in Google terms) of $2.1 billion. More speculative investments include self-driving vehicle company Waymo and AI researcher DeepMind. Then there are IoT services like cloud and edge computing via Google Cloud, Google Pay, Google Fiber, and mobile provider Google Fi. The list goes on.\nThe point is, Google is using its dominant internet search engine to power all sorts of other ancillary businesses. If I had to think of only one wide moat IoT business, I think Google is as close to bulletproof as they come.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNext-generation databases for the IoT age\nAnders Bylund (MongoDB): You know you have an insurmountable moat when the competitors you're disrupting are starting to copy you. It's even better if the traditionalists can't quite pin down why your groundbreaking technologies are doing so well in the market, causing their copycat ideas to miss the mark.\nThat's where MongoDB stands today. The NoSQL database specialist has carved out an impressive market space for itself in the massive global market for database products and services. In particular, MongoDB's cloud-based Atlas platform is winning customers hand over fist. The ultra-flexible structure of NoSQL databases makes them perfect for managing messy and unstructured data, like the sensor readings and user inputs that come from IoT devices.\nMongoDB's sales rose 39% year over year in last week's first-quarter report. Atlas revenue skyrocketed 73% higher and now accounts for more than half of the company's total quarterly sales. This high-growth company is already generating positive free cash flows, setting the stage for further investments in business-boosting products and services as well as positive bottom-line earnings somewhere down the road.\nAt the same time, SQL database giant Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) posted just 3% revenue growth in its latest quarterly report. Cloud-based services delivered just enough growth to make up for Oracle's lost contracts in the data center. Judging by Oracle's earnings call, cloud computing is the top priority at the expense of truly forward-looking development efforts. Management spent a lot of time on discussing cloud-based service delivery but never even mentioned customer deployments of converged databases, which is the closest thing Oracle has to a NoSQL solution. That's the wrong approach.\nSo MongoDB's business is surging, and Oracle is just making a half-hearted attempt to keep up with the cool kids. The young upstart is stealing market share from the established competition, just as the IoT market enters an explosive growth phase of its own. Having the right database solution for this incredible target market should provide plenty of fuel for MongoDB's top-line growth in the years to come.\nA new digital LiDAR company fresh off its SPAC and winning over new customers\nBilly Duberstein (Ouster): A main feature of the Internet of Things is the ability for machines to detect and respond to the world around them without human direction. One technology that will enable that functionality is LiDAR, a laser-based computer vision technology just coming into its own. You may know LiDAR from its use in self-driving cars, but the technology is also applicable for smart cities, factory automation, and robotics.\nDigital LiDAR company Ouster just merged with SPAC Colonnade Acquisition Corp. in March, but is already making a big impression in 2021. Although the company generates minimal revenue today, its customer base is growing rapidly. Just since the fourth quarter 2020, Ouster's strategic customer agreements have quadrupled from 10 to 40, and its contracted revenue is up over 10 times, from $34 million to $385 million. Rapid price declines in digital LiDAR, combined with a tidal wave of demand for automation applications, could mean an inflection point for LiDAR companies generally and Ouster specifically.\nOuster's advantage in LiDAR comes from a few different places. First, it has gone the digital route, which offers the potential for exponential improvement and greater simplicity versus analog LiDAR technology. The company has also chosen a single simple architecture that is configurable to each LiDAR application through software, allowing for efficient low-cost production even with customization for different end-markets.\nAdditionally, while other LiDAR companies appear to be very focused on the self-driving car market, Ouster is actually just as focused across industrial automation, robotics, and smart cities as well. For instance, Ouster just won an exclusive smart city contract to supply speed enforcement systems in France. These other non-auto markets may actually be much more profitable than the autonomous vehicle market, which is not only more competitive but also proving very difficult to pull off.\nWith a fresh $300 million from its SPAC deal, Ouster is ramping up production and accelerating its proprietary system-on-chip iteration from a two-year development cycle to a one-year development cycle. It may not be as strong a moat as in more established companies, but with a low-cost and flexible architecture, rapid speed of innovation, and large potential opportunity, Ouster may be developing into a consequential LiDAR company at the beginning of its adoption phase.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":972,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":183041520,"gmtCreate":1623296607860,"gmtModify":1634034840060,"author":{"id":"3585015704454479","authorId":"3585015704454479","name":"d63a8e4","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585015704454479","idStr":"3585015704454479"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[微笑]&nbsp;[微笑]&nbsp;","listText":"[微笑]&nbsp;[微笑]&nbsp;","text":"[微笑] [微笑]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/183041520","repostId":"1143747111","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143747111","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623293378,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1143747111?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-10 10:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Tech Stocks to Buy During a Recession","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143747111","media":"fool","summary":"Arecessioncan be a very stressful period.

The wise investor will do what it takes to be prepared for this eventuality.</p>\n<p>Here are three relatively safe tech stocks that represent strong companies and I would buy them during the next recession.</p>\n<p>1. Microsoft</p>\n<p><b>Microsoft</b>'s(NASDAQ:MSFT)software is widely used by both consumers and businesses. There are more than 1 billion active devices that run on Windows 10, and the company reported that Office 365 usage was higher than ever last year. Microsoft is also a leader in helping organizations shift to digital technologies, whereMicrosoft Azureis emerging as a strong second-place competitor to<b>Amazon</b>(NASDAQ:AMZN)in the cloud services market.</p>\n<p>Even with Microsoft's established brand and customer base, the company is not immune to dips in demand caused by recessions. For example, spending on technology could decline during a weak economy, pressuring Microsoft's revenue growth. But it's worth noting that spending on cloud services and infrastructure continued to increase during the pandemic as Microsoft benefited from the remote work trend, and CEO Satya Nadella believes the growing demand for digital services is just getting started.</p>\n<p>\"Over a year into the pandemic, digital adoption curves aren't slowing down. They're accelerating, and it's just the beginning,\" Nadella stated in the fiscal Q3 2021 earnings report.</p>\n<p>Microsoft estimates that 50 billion new devices will come online by 2030, and that could translate to tremendous growth in revenue for Azure -- not to mention demand for Microsoft's popular software tools like Word and Excel, which the company bundles as a subscription service with Microsoft 365.</p>\n<p>Microsoft is a financial fortress. It ended the most recent quarter with a net cash position of $73 billion, and it generated $54 billion infree cash flowover the last four quarters.&nbsp;With that much cash sitting on the balance sheet and more coming in every year, Microsoft would likely be able to continue increasing its dividend payout even during challenging business conditions. The stock currently pays adividend yieldof 0.87%, representing a cash payout ratio of 30% relative to free cash flow.</p>\n<p>The secular demand trend for digital enterprise software services should keep Microsoft growing over the long term, and its rock-solid financial position should provide a cushion to the stock price in the event of anothermarket correction.</p>\n<p>2. Amazon</p>\n<p>Amazon provides essential services through its grocery businesses (Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods). It's also the leader in cloud services with its Amazon Web Services business. But serving the consumer is still its bread and butter. The annualPrime Day(usually held in the summer months) has become just as big as Black Friday, and the event provides Amazon an opportunity to reach new customers with its Prime membership program.</p>\n<p>Amazon generated $419 billion in revenue over the last year, and it continues to grow very fast for a large business. Revenue has doubled over the last three years, with growth accelerating during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>Still, not all recessions may turn out as well for the e-commerce giant. Amazon sells a lot of consumer electronics and other nonessential items that people may not purchase during a prolonged recession.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, many customers would likely stick with their Prime memberships to enjoy movies, music, and free grocery delivery. Amazon now has more than 200 million loyal patrons through Prime, and the company is seeing Prime engagement continue to rise, providing a stickier ecosystem of services for consumers.</p>\n<p>Like Microsoft, Amazon generates a substantial amount of free cash flow to continue investing in the future no matter what the economy is doing. Over the last four quarters, Amazon generated $26.4 billion in free cash flow.&nbsp;Most of its operating profit comes from cloud services, where Amazon Web Services made up 11.6% of total revenue on a trailing-12-month basis.</p>\n<p>While Amazon doesn't pay a dividend, that's sort of a good thing at this juncture, because it means management is still seeing tremendous opportunities to invest in building more fulfillment warehouses and its own transportation fleet to meet growing demand. This is a top growth stock to consider buying when the next market correction strikes.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc76a43a51b8c48de3337ad1dea22962\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>AAPLDATA BY YCHARTS</span></p>\n<p>3. Apple</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL)is one of the most iconic consumer brands in the world. Sure, sales of its pricey aluminum-clad devices would likely suffer if people didn't have money to spend, but the company also has a growing revenue stream from subscription services, and it generates plenty of cash to continue paying a regular dividend to shareholders.</p>\n<p>While iPhone revenue dropped 3.3% in fiscal 2020 (which ended in September), Apple saw sales of its Macs, iPads, and wearables grow at healthy rates during the pandemic. And since the iPhone 12 launched in the fall, Apple's revenue growth has accelerated to 53% year over year in the quarter that ended in March.</p>\n<p>Most importantly, Apple's installed base of active devices continues to hit new records. The new Macs and iPad Pros featuringApple's new M1 chip have rejuvenated salesof these products&nbsp;-- a great sign of Apple's brand strength in the marketplace.</p>\n<p>The stock currently pays a dividend yield of 0.67%, with a current cash payout ratio of 15.7% of trailing free cash flow. While shares are up 50% over the last year, the forwardprice-to-earnings ratiois roughly in line with that of the broader market at 24 times expected earnings. At this valuation level, there might be more room for upside in the near term, especially if the iPhone upgrade cycle remains stronger than investors expect.</p>\n<p>During the earnings call in late April, Apple CEO Tim Cook noted that 5G penetration is \"still low at this point,\" with a lot of upgrades still in front of the company.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e5874f0d32193fcda101a46ff8ad430\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>AAPL PE RATIO (FORWARD)DATA BY YCHARTS</span></p>\n<p>In the event of another recession, investors can feel confident that Apple's business won't be starving for funds to keep cranking out new products -- and most importantly, keeping its employees happily on the payroll.</p>\n<p>Apple ended the fiscal second quarter with net cash of $87 billion on the books. While management is working toward a cash-neutral position on its balance sheet,&nbsp;Apple continues to gush more every year, with trailing free cash flow topping $90 billion.</p>\n<p>The key takeaway</p>\n<p>Shares ofleading tech stocksthat generate substantial amounts of free cash flow will be relatively safe bets during a recession. Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple possess these traits in spades. These companies are dominant sector leaders that should reward investors for years to come.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Top Tech Stocks to Buy During a Recession</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Tech Stocks to Buy During a Recession\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-10 10:49 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/09/3-top-tech-stocks-to-buy-during-a-recession/><strong>fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Arecessioncan be a very stressful period.

The stock currently pays adividend yieldof 0.87%, representing a cash payout ratio of 30% relative to free cash flow.\nThe secular demand trend for digital enterprise software services should keep Microsoft growing over the long term, and its rock-solid financial position should provide a cushion to the stock price in the event of anothermarket correction.\n2. Amazon\nAmazon provides essential services through its grocery businesses (Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods). It's also the leader in cloud services with its Amazon Web Services business. But serving the consumer is still its bread and butter. The annualPrime Day(usually held in the summer months) has become just as big as Black Friday, and the event provides Amazon an opportunity to reach new customers with its Prime membership program.\nAmazon generated $419 billion in revenue over the last year, and it continues to grow very fast for a large business. Revenue has doubled over the last three years, with growth accelerating during the pandemic.\nStill, not all recessions may turn out as well for the e-commerce giant. Amazon sells a lot of consumer electronics and other nonessential items that people may not purchase during a prolonged recession.\nOn the other hand, many customers would likely stick with their Prime memberships to enjoy movies, music, and free grocery delivery. Amazon now has more than 200 million loyal patrons through Prime, and the company is seeing Prime engagement continue to rise, providing a stickier ecosystem of services for consumers.\nLike Microsoft, Amazon generates a substantial amount of free cash flow to continue investing in the future no matter what the economy is doing. Over the last four quarters, Amazon generated $26.4 billion in free cash flow. Most of its operating profit comes from cloud services, where Amazon Web Services made up 11.6% of total revenue on a trailing-12-month basis.\nWhile Amazon doesn't pay a dividend, that's sort of a good thing at this juncture, because it means management is still seeing tremendous opportunities to invest in building more fulfillment warehouses and its own transportation fleet to meet growing demand. This is a top growth stock to consider buying when the next market correction strikes.\nAAPLDATA BY YCHARTS\n3. Apple\nApple(NASDAQ:AAPL)is one of the most iconic consumer brands in the world. Sure, sales of its pricey aluminum-clad devices would likely suffer if people didn't have money to spend, but the company also has a growing revenue stream from subscription services, and it generates plenty of cash to continue paying a regular dividend to shareholders.\nWhile iPhone revenue dropped 3.3% in fiscal 2020 (which ended in September), Apple saw sales of its Macs, iPads, and wearables grow at healthy rates during the pandemic. And since the iPhone 12 launched in the fall, Apple's revenue growth has accelerated to 53% year over year in the quarter that ended in March.\nMost importantly, Apple's installed base of active devices continues to hit new records. The new Macs and iPad Pros featuringApple's new M1 chip have rejuvenated salesof these products -- a great sign of Apple's brand strength in the marketplace.\nThe stock currently pays a dividend yield of 0.67%, with a current cash payout ratio of 15.7% of trailing free cash flow. While shares are up 50% over the last year, the forwardprice-to-earnings ratiois roughly in line with that of the broader market at 24 times expected earnings. At this valuation level, there might be more room for upside in the near term, especially if the iPhone upgrade cycle remains stronger than investors expect.\nDuring the earnings call in late April, Apple CEO Tim Cook noted that 5G penetration is \"still low at this point,\" with a lot of upgrades still in front of the company.\nAAPL PE RATIO (FORWARD)DATA BY YCHARTS\nIn the event of another recession, investors can feel confident that Apple's business won't be starving for funds to keep cranking out new products -- and most importantly, keeping its employees happily on the payroll.\nApple ended the fiscal second quarter with net cash of $87 billion on the books. While management is working toward a cash-neutral position on its balance sheet, Apple continues to gush more every year, with trailing free cash flow topping $90 billion.\nThe key takeaway\nShares ofleading tech stocksthat generate substantial amounts of free cash flow will be relatively safe bets during a recession. Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple possess these traits in spades. These companies are dominant sector leaders that should reward investors for years to come.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1581,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":114145366,"gmtCreate":1623060711355,"gmtModify":1634037390554,"author":{"id":"3585015704454479","authorId":"3585015704454479","name":"d63a8e4","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3585015704454479","idStr":"3585015704454479"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[笑哭]&nbsp;[笑哭]&nbsp;","listText":"[笑哭]&nbsp;[笑哭]&nbsp;","text":"[笑哭]

Something's got to give.</p>\n<p>The US government reported last week that consumer prices, excluding food and energy, rose at their fastest clip since 1992 in May. Sherwin-Williams (SHW) is lifting the price of paint, one of many companies that's responding to higher commodities costs.</p>\n<p>Food prices are also surging. Chipotle (CMG) just raised prices.

Fool","summary":"The world is getting more connected, but these businesses have some advantages over their peers.","content":"<p>The Internet of Things -- or IoT, a catch-all phrase for devices getting connected to the internet or another private network -- is reaching mind-boggling proportions. There are more \"things\" connected to the internet than there are people, and annual spending to manage this interconnected and still-expanding patchwork of electronic devices is worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.</p>\n<p>The IoT is a total feeding trough, and it can be difficult to sift through those companies that have a \"wide moat\" (those with a competitive edge over their peers) from those simply benefiting from a rising tide. Three Fool.com contributors are here to help, and think that Google parent <b>Alphabet </b>(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG), <b>MongoDB </b>(NASDAQ:MDB), and <b>Ouster </b>(NYSE:OUST) have a wide moat that separates them from the pack.</p>\n<h2>Sometimes the best competitive advantage is a mountain of cash</h2>\n<p><b>Nicholas Rossolillo (Alphabet): </b>Google is an inseparable part of the very fabric of the internet. Countless billions of web searches are made every day, and Google profits from its utilitarian tech service primarily via advertising. It isn't the sexiest business model, and it's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> that has come under fire in recent years -- but it isn't going away anytime soon. As the internet and its application in everyday life evolves in the decades to come, Google will be a utility company helping govern its basic functionality.</p>\n<p>Besides not really having any serious competition in web search itself (besides maybe <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> </b>(NASDAQ:FB), which dominates the social media side of the internet), Google has a mountain of cash. At the end of March 2021, it had over $135 billion in cash and equivalents, another $25.3 billion in non-marketable investments, offset by debt of only $13.9 billion. This is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the deepest-pocketed organizations on the planet, and it's still filling up its coffers. Total Google revenue was $197 billion over the last trailing-12-month stretch and had an operating profit margin of over 25%.</p>\n<p>Google funnels tens of billions every year into developing IoT technology -- like its Pixel smartphones and Nest smart home devices, as well as Fitbit, which it acquired at the beginning of 2021 for a meager sum (in Google terms) of $2.1 billion. More speculative investments include self-driving vehicle company Waymo and AI researcher DeepMind. Then there are IoT services like cloud and edge computing via Google Cloud, Google Pay, Google Fiber, and mobile provider Google Fi. The list goes on.</p>\n<p>The point is, Google is using its dominant internet search engine to power all sorts of other ancillary businesses. If I had to think of only one wide moat IoT business, I think Google is as close to bulletproof as they come.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F630438%2Fsmartphone-millennials-getty-6217.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"432\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Next-generation databases for the IoT age</h2>\n<p><b>Anders Bylund (MongoDB):</b> You know you have an insurmountable moat when the competitors you're disrupting are starting to copy you. It's even better if the traditionalists can't quite pin down why your groundbreaking technologies are doing so well in the market, causing their copycat ideas to miss the mark.</p>\n<p>That's where MongoDB stands today. The NoSQL database specialist has carved out an impressive market space for itself in the massive global market for database products and services. In particular, MongoDB's cloud-based Atlas platform is winning customers hand over fist. The ultra-flexible structure of NoSQL databases makes them perfect for managing messy and unstructured data, like the sensor readings and user inputs that come from IoT devices.</p>\n<p>MongoDB's sales rose 39% year over year in last week's first-quarter report. Atlas revenue skyrocketed 73% higher and now accounts for more than half of the company's total quarterly sales. This high-growth company is already generating positive free cash flows, setting the stage for further investments in business-boosting products and services as well as positive bottom-line earnings somewhere down the road.</p>\n<p>At the same time, SQL database giant <b>Oracle</b> (NYSE:ORCL) posted just 3% revenue growth in its latest quarterly report. Cloud-based services delivered just enough growth to make up for Oracle's lost contracts in the data center. Judging by Oracle's earnings call, cloud computing is the top priority at the expense of truly forward-looking development efforts. Management spent a lot of time on discussing cloud-based service delivery but never even mentioned customer deployments of converged databases, which is the closest thing Oracle has to a NoSQL solution. That's the wrong approach.</p>\n<p>So MongoDB's business is surging, and Oracle is just making a half-hearted attempt to keep up with the cool kids. The young upstart is stealing market share from the established competition, just as the IoT market enters an explosive growth phase of its own. Having the right database solution for this incredible target market should provide plenty of fuel for MongoDB's top-line growth in the years to come.</p>\n<h2>A new digital LiDAR company fresh off its SPAC and winning over new customers</h2>\n<p><b>Billy Duberstein (Ouster):</b> A main feature of the Internet of Things is the ability for machines to detect and respond to the world around them without human direction. One technology that will enable that functionality is LiDAR, a laser-based computer vision technology just coming into its own. You may know LiDAR from its use in self-driving cars, but the technology is also applicable for smart cities, factory automation, and robotics.</p>\n<p>Digital LiDAR company Ouster just merged with SPAC <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLA\">Colonnade Acquisition Corp</a>. in March, but is already making a big impression in 2021. Although the company generates minimal revenue today, its customer base is growing rapidly. Just since the fourth quarter 2020, Ouster's strategic customer agreements have quadrupled from 10 to 40, and its contracted revenue is up over 10 times, from $34 million to $385 million. Rapid price declines in digital LiDAR, combined with a tidal wave of demand for automation applications, could mean an inflection point for LiDAR companies generally and Ouster specifically.</p>\n<p>Ouster's advantage in LiDAR comes from a few different places. First, it has gone the digital route, which offers the potential for exponential improvement and greater simplicity versus analog LiDAR technology. The company has also chosen a single simple architecture that is configurable to each LiDAR application through software, allowing for efficient low-cost production even with customization for different end-markets.</p>\n<p>Additionally, while other LiDAR companies appear to be very focused on the self-driving car market, Ouster is actually just as focused across industrial automation, robotics, and smart cities as well. For instance, Ouster just won an exclusive smart city contract to supply speed enforcement systems in France. These other non-auto markets may actually be much more profitable than the autonomous vehicle market, which is not only more competitive but also proving very difficult to pull off.</p>\n<p>With a fresh $300 million from its SPAC deal, Ouster is ramping up production and accelerating its proprietary system-on-chip iteration from a two-year development cycle to a one-year development cycle. It may not be as strong a moat as in more established companies, but with a low-cost and flexible architecture, rapid speed of innovation, and large potential opportunity, Ouster may be developing into a consequential LiDAR company at the beginning of its adoption phase.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>These 3 Internet of Things Companies Have Incredibly Wide Moats</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\">\nThese 3 Internet of Things Companies Have Incredibly Wide Moats\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-14 08:11 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/13/these-3-internet-of-things-companies-have-incredib/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The Internet of Things -- or IoT, a catch-all phrase for devices getting connected to the internet or another private network -- is reaching mind-boggling proportions.

There are more \"things\" connected to the internet than there are people, and annual spending to manage this interconnected and still-expanding patchwork of electronic devices is worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.\nThe IoT is a total feeding trough, and it can be difficult to sift through those companies that have a \"wide moat\" (those with a competitive edge over their peers) from those simply benefiting from a rising tide. Three Fool.com contributors are here to help, and think that Google parent Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG), MongoDB (NASDAQ:MDB), and Ouster (NYSE:OUST) have a wide moat that separates them from the pack.\nSometimes the best competitive advantage is a mountain of cash\nNicholas Rossolillo (Alphabet): Google is an inseparable part of the very fabric of the internet. Countless billions of web searches are made every day, and Google profits from its utilitarian tech service primarily via advertising. It isn't the sexiest business model, and it's one that has come under fire in recent years -- but it isn't going away anytime soon. As the internet and its application in everyday life evolves in the decades to come, Google will be a utility company helping govern its basic functionality.\nBesides not really having any serious competition in web search itself (besides maybe Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), which dominates the social media side of the internet), Google has a mountain of cash. At the end of March 2021, it had over $135 billion in cash and equivalents, another $25.3 billion in non-marketable investments, offset by debt of only $13.9 billion. This is one of the deepest-pocketed organizations on the planet, and it's still filling up its coffers. Total Google revenue was $197 billion over the last trailing-12-month stretch and had an operating profit margin of over 25%.\nGoogle funnels tens of billions every year into developing IoT technology -- like its Pixel smartphones and Nest smart home devices, as well as Fitbit, which it acquired at the beginning of 2021 for a meager sum (in Google terms) of $2.1 billion. More speculative investments include self-driving vehicle company Waymo and AI researcher DeepMind. Then there are IoT services like cloud and edge computing via Google Cloud, Google Pay, Google Fiber, and mobile provider Google Fi. The list goes on.\nThe point is, Google is using its dominant internet search engine to power all sorts of other ancillary businesses. If I had to think of only one wide moat IoT business, I think Google is as close to bulletproof as they come.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNext-generation databases for the IoT age\nAnders Bylund (MongoDB): You know you have an insurmountable moat when the competitors you're disrupting are starting to copy you. It's even better if the traditionalists can't quite pin down why your groundbreaking technologies are doing so well in the market, causing their copycat ideas to miss the mark.\nThat's where MongoDB stands today. The NoSQL database specialist has carved out an impressive market space for itself in the massive global market for database products and services. In particular, MongoDB's cloud-based Atlas platform is winning customers hand over fist. The ultra-flexible structure of NoSQL databases makes them perfect for managing messy and unstructured data, like the sensor readings and user inputs that come from IoT devices.\nMongoDB's sales rose 39% year over year in last week's first-quarter report. Atlas revenue skyrocketed 73% higher and now accounts for more than half of the company's total quarterly sales. This high-growth company is already generating positive free cash flows, setting the stage for further investments in business-boosting products and services as well as positive bottom-line earnings somewhere down the road.\nAt the same time, SQL database giant Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) posted just 3% revenue growth in its latest quarterly report. Cloud-based services delivered just enough growth to make up for Oracle's lost contracts in the data center. Judging by Oracle's earnings call, cloud computing is the top priority at the expense of truly forward-looking development efforts. Management spent a lot of time on discussing cloud-based service delivery but never even mentioned customer deployments of converged databases, which is the closest thing Oracle has to a NoSQL solution. That's the wrong approach.\nSo MongoDB's business is surging, and Oracle is just making a half-hearted attempt to keep up with the cool kids. The young upstart is stealing market share from the established competition, just as the IoT market enters an explosive growth phase of its own. Having the right database solution for this incredible target market should provide plenty of fuel for MongoDB's top-line growth in the years to come.\nA new digital LiDAR company fresh off its SPAC and winning over new customers\nBilly Duberstein (Ouster): A main feature of the Internet of Things is the ability for machines to detect and respond to the world around them without human direction. One technology that will enable that functionality is LiDAR, a laser-based computer vision technology just coming into its own. You may know LiDAR from its use in self-driving cars, but the technology is also applicable for smart cities, factory automation, and robotics.\nDigital LiDAR company Ouster just merged with SPAC Colonnade Acquisition Corp. in March, but is already making a big impression in 2021. Although the company generates minimal revenue today, its customer base is growing rapidly. Just since the fourth quarter 2020, Ouster's strategic customer agreements have quadrupled from 10 to 40, and its contracted revenue is up over 10 times, from $34 million to $385 million. Rapid price declines in digital LiDAR, combined with a tidal wave of demand for automation applications, could mean an inflection point for LiDAR companies generally and Ouster specifically.\nOuster's advantage in LiDAR comes from a few different places. First, it has gone the digital route, which offers the potential for exponential improvement and greater simplicity versus analog LiDAR technology. The company has also chosen a single simple architecture that is configurable to each LiDAR application through software, allowing for efficient low-cost production even with customization for different end-markets.\nAdditionally, while other LiDAR companies appear to be very focused on the self-driving car market, Ouster is actually just as focused across industrial automation, robotics, and smart cities as well. For instance, Ouster just won an exclusive smart city contract to supply speed enforcement systems in France. These other non-auto markets may actually be much more profitable than the autonomous vehicle market, which is not only more competitive but also proving very difficult to pull off.\nWith a fresh $300 million from its SPAC deal, Ouster is ramping up production and accelerating its proprietary system-on-chip iteration from a two-year development cycle to a one-year development cycle. It may not be as strong a moat as in more established companies, but with a low-cost and flexible architecture, rapid speed of innovation, and large potential opportunity, Ouster may be developing into a consequential LiDAR company at the beginning of its adoption phase.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":972,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
