It's no surprise that Apple will likely cross $3T market cap in the next year or so, but is the company worth buying at these high levels?</p>\n<p>As mentioned above, I view Apple as an almost cash like position.

At a PE of ~29, it's hardly extortionate, but it is outside of Apple's average over the last five years.</p>\n<p>The ecosystem, one that ties its customers in for life, is where the value lies here and Apple has plans to expand that with vehicles and wearables. Even at a PE of 29, I believe this to be a secure long-term investment that will pay investors a dividend, albeit small, along the way while continuing to retire billions of dollars in stock ($315B authorized ~10%).</p>\n<p><b>Addressing The Risks</b></p>\n<p>Fear and inflation. Fear is the largest and most significant risk that Apple faces. Buyers told that bad times are coming tend to zip up their pocketbooks. Buyers who have to spend 10% more on groceries suddenly don't have enough to buy the latest iPhone.</p>\n<p>These are external concerns that Apple has little control over. The company has, over the years, introduced buy-now-pay-later and subscription programs that help buyers get the goods they want at an affordable monthly price, and, as discussed, Apple has substantial margins that it could use to overcome significant headwinds in this space.</p>\n<p>Execution is another risk Apple faces, especially as we look to these \"futuristic\" products. A self-driving car could be worth trillions of dollars in lifetime revenues, or it could be a dud upon release that never gets full approval to operate on the streets. Likewise, an AR headset that no one wants to be seen wearing, or that proves difficult to wear through the day, could be a dead-on-arrival product.</p>\n<p>Given the nature of these two products and the secrecy surrounding their development, one cannot truly assign a real risk rating to them. They're just things to be aware of. Apple does have a history of great execution (MacBook keyboard and Touch Bar aside), however, so an investor should feel at least somewhat comfortable that the company will put its best foot forward.</p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>At a valuation nearing $3T one would assume there isn't much room left to run in Apple, but investors still stand to beat the overall market in this name thanks to excellent capital allocation.</p>\n<p>Apple has $315B in authorized buybacks and returns some $14.5B in dividends each year. Apple will likely buyback close to $100B in stock during its 2022 fiscal year which, alone, represents a 3.7% return on today's prices. Combined with a dividend yield of 0.6%, investors will make 4.3% on this name through shareholder friendly practices alone.</p>\n<p>Those numbers will compound too, another $100B in 2023, $100B in 2024, it all adds up. That $300B is all authorized too.</p>\n<p>Along with those buybacks and dividends, investors are buying into a company that, last year, defied laws of large numbers and grew its top-line at 33%. While unlikely this year, I still expect that the wearables and services divisions will grow at double digits which will allow Apple to see high single-digit revenue growth through the coming 3-5 years.</p>\n<p>Those with a bearish view on Apple act as though this juggernaut will vanish overnight, but that's simply not true. Sure, you're unlikely to pull down 30%+ annual returns going forward, but if you're looking for a high-quality stable business that can beat the market little-by-little, Apple is a great horse (or car) to back.</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>Apple: A True 'Never Sell' Position</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\">\nApple: A True 'Never Sell' Position\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-07 22:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nWith $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on shareholder-friendly practices alone.\nIn addition, the company will still see double-digit growth in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1162682713","content_text":"Summary\n\nWith $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on shareholder-friendly practices alone.\nIn addition, the company will still see double-digit growth in wearables and services, even if iPhone slows down a little.\nThe Apple ecosystem also stands to get more intertwined with a potential Apple Car and AR/VR plays.\n\nCatLane/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nAt an almost $3T market cap, I am still a holder of Apple (AAPL).

It gets Apple out of the \"$1,000 for a phone\" line of thinking.\nData by YCharts\nAll this to say, Apple's rich valuation today is a worthy one. At a PE of ~29, it's hardly extortionate, but it is outside of Apple's average over the last five years.\nThe ecosystem, one that ties its customers in for life, is where the value lies here and Apple has plans to expand that with vehicles and wearables. Even at a PE of 29, I believe this to be a secure long-term investment that will pay investors a dividend, albeit small, along the way while continuing to retire billions of dollars in stock ($315B authorized ~10%).\nAddressing The Risks\nFear and inflation. Fear is the largest and most significant risk that Apple faces. Buyers told that bad times are coming tend to zip up their pocketbooks. Buyers who have to spend 10% more on groceries suddenly don't have enough to buy the latest iPhone.\nThese are external concerns that Apple has little control over. The company has, over the years, introduced buy-now-pay-later and subscription programs that help buyers get the goods they want at an affordable monthly price, and, as discussed, Apple has substantial margins that it could use to overcome significant headwinds in this space.\nExecution is another risk Apple faces, especially as we look to these \"futuristic\" products. A self-driving car could be worth trillions of dollars in lifetime revenues, or it could be a dud upon release that never gets full approval to operate on the streets. Likewise, an AR headset that no one wants to be seen wearing, or that proves difficult to wear through the day, could be a dead-on-arrival product.\nGiven the nature of these two products and the secrecy surrounding their development, one cannot truly assign a real risk rating to them. They're just things to be aware of. Apple does have a history of great execution (MacBook keyboard and Touch Bar aside), however, so an investor should feel at least somewhat comfortable that the company will put its best foot forward.\nFinal Thoughts\nAt a valuation nearing $3T one would assume there isn't much room left to run in Apple, but investors still stand to beat the overall market in this name thanks to excellent capital allocation.\nApple has $315B in authorized buybacks and returns some $14.5B in dividends each year. Apple will likely buyback close to $100B in stock during its 2022 fiscal year which, alone, represents a 3.7% return on today's prices. Combined with a dividend yield of 0.6%, investors will make 4.3% on this name through shareholder friendly practices alone.\nThose numbers will compound too, another $100B in 2023, $100B in 2024, it all adds up. That $300B is all authorized too.\nAlong with those buybacks and dividends, investors are buying into a company that, last year, defied laws of large numbers and grew its top-line at 33%. While unlikely this year, I still expect that the wearables and services divisions will grow at double digits which will allow Apple to see high single-digit revenue growth through the coming 3-5 years.\nThose with a bearish view on Apple act as though this juggernaut will vanish overnight, but that's simply not true. Sure, you're unlikely to pull down 30%+ annual returns going forward, but if you're looking for a high-quality stable business that can beat the market little-by-little, Apple is a great horse (or car) to back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1090,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":606543316,"gmtCreate":1638907585319,"gmtModify":1638907585319,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go Apple!&nbsp;","listText":"Go Apple!&nbsp;","text":"Go Apple!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/606543316","repostId":"1159685639","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159685639","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1638888367,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1159685639?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-07 22:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159685639","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high after the company got another street-high target on vir","content":"<p>Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high&nbsp;after&nbsp;the&nbsp;company&nbsp;got another street-high target on virtual reality boost.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb9792aa89d24847aee38f67d56067eb\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Apple Inc.&nbsp;got its second Street-high price target as Morgan Stanley sees it benefiting from new product categories in virtual reality and autonomous vehicles.</p>\n<p>Analyst Katy Huberty, who rates Apple overweight, raised her price target to $200 from $164, matching Wedbush as the highest among targets tracked by Bloomberg. </p>\n<p>While investors have struggled to value the iPhone maker’s new products given the company’s secrecy, Huberty expects augmented and virtual reality, as well as autonomous vehicles, to eventually be priced in, and says Apple should also benefit from a “flight to quality” in technology stocks.</p>\n<p>“Despite a consistent and material revenue contribution from new products and services over time, Apple shares don’t seem to bake in the impact from upcoming new product launches,” Huberty wrote in a note. “We believe this will change as Apple approaches the launch of an AR/VR product over the next year.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d1d69bd985c3b74963515674f2da918\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"675\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Apple’s shares have surged 25% this year and ended Monday’s session at a fresh record.

It may surprise you to learn that technology stocks actually make up over a quarter of the whole index, and that's dominated by big companies like Apple and Microsoft. Similarly, the energy sector, which is actually the best-performing sector of 2021 (even better than tech) only makes up 3% of the index. So, the energy sector could double and it would contribute less than Microsoft stock's 3.47 percentage point contribution so far this year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fd86fe8cdf4105e1711d7983ad648bc\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"635\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>MSFT data by YCharts</span></p>\n<h2>What to do about it</h2>\n<p>One of the biggest mistakes we can make as investors is obsessing over short- to mid-term performance. Zooming in to a particular quarter undermines the big picture. For example, there are plenty of stocks that absolutely crushed the market in 2020 that are underperforming or even down big this year (think <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a>,</b> <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b>, <b>Square</b>, <b>Teladoc</b>, and <b>Peloton</b>, to name a few).</p>\n<p>While it's easy to say that those companies are underperformers this year, keep in mind they are still net winners over the last two years.</p>\n<h2>A note of reassurance</h2>\n<p>Let's say that for a few years now, you've been underperforming the market because you haven't held the stocks that have really driven the index's returns. The truth of the matter is that you're still probably a lot better off because you were in the market in the first place. So if you're up, let's say, half of what the index is, you're still growing your wealth at a much quicker pace than folks who aren't in the market at all.</p>\n<p>The most important priority is your financial goals. If you're investing in dividend stocks to supplement income in retirement, then you're playing a different game than growth-oriented investors. Similarly, if you're a value investor who focuses on stodgy, slow-growing, but safe companies that let you sleep at night, then it's simply expected that you're going to underperform a growth-driven market.</p>\n<h2>Focus on what really matters</h2>\n<p>The point here is that comparing your performance to the S&amp;P 500, for better or for worse, is usually unhelpful. As long as you're investing in companies, cryptos, or other securities that you understand and that are helping you reach your goals, then the rest is little more than bragging rights.</p>\n<p>The market moves in cycles.

That's after a 16% 2020 gain despite the COVID-19 pandemic. Gains this high are not normal, as the market tends to average around 8% a year over the long term.\nWhat's even more remarkable is that the 10 largest components of the S&P 500 are up -- wait for it -- an average of 50% year to date.\nNow if you're looking at your portfolio wondering why it's underperforming the market this year, you aren't alone. Beating the stock market in 2021 is nearly impossible without these 10 stocks. Here's why.\nFlexing their muscles\nThe math here is beautifully simple. The 10 largest holdings of the S&P 500 make up 29% of the index. As mentioned, they are collectively up an average of 50% of the year, which contributes a gain of 13 percentage points to the S&P 500's return. That's around half of the index's gain from these 10 stocks alone. So, without their contribution, the index is up a whole lot less.\n\n\n\nCompany\nS&P 500 Weight\nYTD Gain\nEffect On S&P 500 YTD Return\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)\n6.4%\n54%\n3.47 percentage points\n\n\nApple (NASDAQ:AAPL)\n6.2%\n21%\n1.30 percentage points\n\n\nAmazon (NASDAQ:AMZN)\n4%\n13%\n0.52 percentage points\n\n\nAlphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG)\n2.3%\n70%\n1.58 percentage points\n\n\nTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)\n2.2%\n61%\n1.36 percentage points\n\n\nMeta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB)\n2%\n26%\n0.53 percentage points\n\n\nNvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)\n2%\n153%\n3.03 percentage points\n\n\nBerkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B)\n1.3%\n21%\n0.27 percentage points\n\n\nJPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM)\n1.2%\n27%\n0.33 percentage points\n\n\nHome Depot (NYSE:HD)\n1.1%\n54%\n0.58 percentage points\n\n\n\nData sources: Yahoo! Finance, YCharts, Slickcharts\nDissecting the S&P 500\nWe talk about the S&P 500 all the time, but we don't always discuss what makes up the index and why it moves the way it does. It may surprise you to learn that technology stocks actually make up over a quarter of the whole index, and that's dominated by big companies like Apple and Microsoft. Similarly, the energy sector, which is actually the best-performing sector of 2021 (even better than tech) only makes up 3% of the index. So, the energy sector could double and it would contribute less than Microsoft stock's 3.47 percentage point contribution so far this year.\nMSFT data by YCharts\nWhat to do about it\nOne of the biggest mistakes we can make as investors is obsessing over short- to mid-term performance. Zooming in to a particular quarter undermines the big picture. For example, there are plenty of stocks that absolutely crushed the market in 2020 that are underperforming or even down big this year (think Zoom, PayPal, Square, Teladoc, and Peloton, to name a few).\nWhile it's easy to say that those companies are underperformers this year, keep in mind they are still net winners over the last two years.\nA note of reassurance\nLet's say that for a few years now, you've been underperforming the market because you haven't held the stocks that have really driven the index's returns. The truth of the matter is that you're still probably a lot better off because you were in the market in the first place. So if you're up, let's say, half of what the index is, you're still growing your wealth at a much quicker pace than folks who aren't in the market at all.\nThe most important priority is your financial goals. If you're investing in dividend stocks to supplement income in retirement, then you're playing a different game than growth-oriented investors. Similarly, if you're a value investor who focuses on stodgy, slow-growing, but safe companies that let you sleep at night, then it's simply expected that you're going to underperform a growth-driven market.\nFocus on what really matters\nThe point here is that comparing your performance to the S&P 500, for better or for worse, is usually unhelpful. As long as you're investing in companies, cryptos, or other securities that you understand and that are helping you reach your goals, then the rest is little more than bragging rights.\nThe market moves in cycles. And while we may be living in a multi-year period of growth (especially mega-cap tech growth), there could be a few years where it shifts from growth to value, or from large-cap tech growth to small-cap growth. Hopefully, you're left with a better understanding of what's really driving the S&P 500 and why it's so easy to underperform if you didn't own stocks like Microsoft, Nvidia, or Tesla this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":760,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":603259581,"gmtCreate":1638416371273,"gmtModify":1638416371341,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Let’s see how the market moves.&nbsp;","listText":"Let’s see how the market moves.&nbsp;","text":"Let’s see how the market moves.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/603259581","repostId":"1102558803","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":707,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":603324058,"gmtCreate":1638368897874,"gmtModify":1638368897985,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool!

That's after a 16% 2020 gain despite the COVID-19 pandemic. Gains this high are not normal, as the market tends to average around 8% a year over the long term.\nWhat's even more remarkable is that the 10 largest components of the S&P 500 are up -- wait for it -- an average of 50% year to date.\nNow if you're looking at your portfolio wondering why it's underperforming the market this year, you aren't alone. Beating the stock market in 2021 is nearly impossible without these 10 stocks. Here's why.\nFlexing their muscles\nThe math here is beautifully simple. The 10 largest holdings of the S&P 500 make up 29% of the index. As mentioned, they are collectively up an average of 50% of the year, which contributes a gain of 13 percentage points to the S&P 500's return. That's around half of the index's gain from these 10 stocks alone. So, without their contribution, the index is up a whole lot less.\n\n\n\nCompany\nS&P 500 Weight\nYTD Gain\nEffect On S&P 500 YTD Return\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)\n6.4%\n54%\n3.47 percentage points\n\n\nApple (NASDAQ:AAPL)\n6.2%\n21%\n1.30 percentage points\n\n\nAmazon (NASDAQ:AMZN)\n4%\n13%\n0.52 percentage points\n\n\nAlphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG)\n2.3%\n70%\n1.58 percentage points\n\n\nTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)\n2.2%\n61%\n1.36 percentage points\n\n\nMeta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB)\n2%\n26%\n0.53 percentage points\n\n\nNvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)\n2%\n153%\n3.03 percentage points\n\n\nBerkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B)\n1.3%\n21%\n0.27 percentage points\n\n\nJPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM)\n1.2%\n27%\n0.33 percentage points\n\n\nHome Depot (NYSE:HD)\n1.1%\n54%\n0.58 percentage points\n\n\n\nData sources: Yahoo! Finance, YCharts, Slickcharts\nDissecting the S&P 500\nWe talk about the S&P 500 all the time, but we don't always discuss what makes up the index and why it moves the way it does. It may surprise you to learn that technology stocks actually make up over a quarter of the whole index, and that's dominated by big companies like Apple and Microsoft. Similarly, the energy sector, which is actually the best-performing sector of 2021 (even better than tech) only makes up 3% of the index. So, the energy sector could double and it would contribute less than Microsoft stock's 3.47 percentage point contribution so far this year.\nMSFT data by YCharts\nWhat to do about it\nOne of the biggest mistakes we can make as investors is obsessing over short- to mid-term performance. Zooming in to a particular quarter undermines the big picture. For example, there are plenty of stocks that absolutely crushed the market in 2020 that are underperforming or even down big this year (think Zoom, PayPal, Square, Teladoc, and Peloton, to name a few).\nWhile it's easy to say that those companies are underperformers this year, keep in mind they are still net winners over the last two years.\nA note of reassurance\nLet's say that for a few years now, you've been underperforming the market because you haven't held the stocks that have really driven the index's returns. The truth of the matter is that you're still probably a lot better off because you were in the market in the first place. So if you're up, let's say, half of what the index is, you're still growing your wealth at a much quicker pace than folks who aren't in the market at all.\nThe most important priority is your financial goals. If you're investing in dividend stocks to supplement income in retirement, then you're playing a different game than growth-oriented investors. Similarly, if you're a value investor who focuses on stodgy, slow-growing, but safe companies that let you sleep at night, then it's simply expected that you're going to underperform a growth-driven market.\nFocus on what really matters\nThe point here is that comparing your performance to the S&P 500, for better or for worse, is usually unhelpful. As long as you're investing in companies, cryptos, or other securities that you understand and that are helping you reach your goals, then the rest is little more than bragging rights.\nThe market moves in cycles. And while we may be living in a multi-year period of growth (especially mega-cap tech growth), there could be a few years where it shifts from growth to value, or from large-cap tech growth to small-cap growth. Hopefully, you're left with a better understanding of what's really driving the S&P 500 and why it's so easy to underperform if you didn't own stocks like Microsoft, Nvidia, or Tesla this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":760,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":603324058,"gmtCreate":1638368897874,"gmtModify":1638368897985,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool!

Shares are up a cool 672% -- and that's after a 20% pullback from its all-time closing high on Oct. 19. With inflation picking up and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) variant concerns rearing their head, most growth stocks have taken it on the chin. But neither U.S. inflation nor COVID-19 variants are of concern to Sea Limited's three rapidly growing operating segments.</p>\n<p>For the time being, the only division generating positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) is its mobile gaming unit, led by<i>Free Fire</i>. When the curtain closed on September, the company had 729 million quarterly active gamers.</p>\n<p>But it's not the number of gamers that's impressive. It's that 12.8% of these gamers (93.2 million) were paying to play. The pay-to-play conversion rate for the mobile gaming industry was closer to 2% in 2020.&nbsp; As long as Sea is generating revenue from users at a considerably higher clip than the industry average, it should command a valuation premium.</p>\n<p>The second rapidly growing segment is digital financial services. Though this division is still relatively nascent, the number of paying mobile wallet users grew to 39.3 million in the third quarter. Since many of the regions targeted by Sea are underbanked emerging markets, offering digital financial tools that can democratize the payment process&nbsp;could be a long-term game-changer.</p>\n<p>But the third and&nbsp;most exciting operating segment&nbsp;is its e-commerce division, Shopee. Among downloadable shopping apps, Shopee consistently reigns supreme in Southeastern Asia. Between COVID-19 keeping people in their homes and middle-class consumers fueling buying activity in emerging market economies, Shopee is set up for success. In fact, its annual gross merchandise value (GMV) run-rate of $67.2 billion (based on third-quarter 2021 figures) is more than six times higher than the GMV the company reported in all of 2018.</p>\n<p>Sea Limited could very well be one of the fastest-growing mega-cap stocks on the planet this decade.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d8ba66a74371fb87c9a662943abcdd4\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1333\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>Planet 13 Holdings</b></p>\n<p>Another top stock with all the tools necessary to make investors richer in December and for many years in the future is U.S.&nbsp;marijuana stock&nbsp;<b>Planet 13 Holdings</b>.</p>\n<p>Easily the biggest objection to investing in U.S. pot stocks is the fact that Congress still hasn't enacted cannabis legalization efforts. While it would make life easier for marijuana companies if the federal government would enact reforms, the vast majority of publicly traded pot stocks are primed for success if the status quo continues. With&nbsp;36 states&nbsp;having legalized weed in some capacity, and the Department of Justice maintaining a hands-off policy, U.S. cannabis stocks like Planet 13 can bloom into successful businesses.</p>\n<p>For the vast majority of multi-state operators (MSOs), their strategy consists of targeting big-dollar markets and planting their proverbial flag in as many states as possible. But this isn't how Planet 13 operates. It&nbsp;gets its competitive edge&nbsp;by focusing just as much on the immersive shopping experience as it does on making a sale.</p>\n<p>For the moment, Planet 13&nbsp;has just two operating dispensaries. The first is the Las Vegas SuperStore just west of the Strip. It's 112,000 square feet in size and contains a restaurant, events center, and consumer-facing processing center. In July 2021, Planet 13 opened its Orange County SuperStore about 10 minutes from Disneyland in Santa Ana, California. It spans 55,000 square feet and features a whopping 16,500 square feet of selling space.'</p>\n<p>Planet 13's stores are a must-see for cannabis tourists as well as locals. In fact, significantly reduced tourist traffic to Las Vegas during the pandemic forced the company to begin focusing on local residents. With Las Vegas tourism returning to some semblance of normal, Planet 13 now has both tourist appeal and a strong local resident following.</p>\n<p>The company has also had quite a bit of success launching its own cannabis brands. According to Headset, via third-quarter commentary from Planet 13 CEO Larry Scheffler, Trendi comprises 5% of Nevada's vape sales, with HaHa edibles accounting for 14% of the Silver State's edible sales.</p>\n<p>With Planet 13 on the cusp of recurring profitability and more than 50% below its February high, the time for opportunistic investors to pounce is now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/106238ec5cefb2975d9231f3547e445c\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1333\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>Teva Pharmaceutical Industries</b></p>\n<p>As for you&nbsp;value investors, the top stock that can make you richer in December and beyond is brand-name and generic drug developer&nbsp;<b>Teva Pharmaceutical Industries</b>.</p>\n<p>Teva has dealt with a laundry list of bad news events over the five years. The company settled bribery charges with U.S. regulators, grossly overpaid for generic drugmaker Actavis, completely shelved its dividend, and saw its top-selling drug -- multiple sclerosis drug Copaxone -- lose patent exclusivity. But the biggest concern of late is the ongoing litigation Teva is facing over its role in the opioid crisis.</p>\n<p>While these are not the types of hurdles that get leaped in a single bound, Teva's CEO Kare Schultz&nbsp;has done an exemplary job&nbsp;of getting the company back on track. Schultz is a bona fide turnaround specialist who's been with the company for a little over four years. In that time, he's reduced Teva's net debt from more than $34 billion to around $22 billion. This has been accomplished by selling off non-core assets, reducing annual operating expenses by billions of dollars, and utilizing the company's bountiful operating cash flow to pay down debt. There no question that Teva is a more financially sound company now than when Schultz was first given the reins.</p>\n<p>Schultz is expected to play a key role in&nbsp;helping Teva navigate a sea of litigation, too. With the company focused on reducing debt, Schultz will aim to settle litigation with minimal amounts of cash. Instead, look for the company to offer free or reduced-price medication to states over roughly a decade as a way of potentially settling opioid litigation. It also doesn't hurt that a California trial found drugmakers weren't liable for the opioid epidemic. This puts added momentum in Teva's sails.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, Teva should be buoyed by increased usage of generics. Rapidly rising brand-name drug list prices, coupled with growing access to healthcare services, should lift Teva's generic drug pricing power and overall sales volume.</p>\n<p>At roughly three times (yes,<i>three times</i>!) Wall Street's consensus forward-year earnings per share, you'd struggle to find a more deeply discounted&nbsp;drug stock&nbsp;right now.</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 Stocks That'll Make You Richer in December (and Beyond)</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 Stocks That'll Make You Richer in December (and Beyond)\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-01 22:16 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/12/01/3-top-stocks-thatll-make-you-richer-in-december/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>We've officially hit the home stretch for what looks like another great year for the stock market.

With inflation picking up and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) variant concerns rearing their head, most growth stocks have taken it on the chin. But neither U.S. inflation nor COVID-19 variants are of concern to Sea Limited's three rapidly growing operating segments.\nFor the time being, the only division generating positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) is its mobile gaming unit, led byFree Fire. When the curtain closed on September, the company had 729 million quarterly active gamers.\nBut it's not the number of gamers that's impressive. It's that 12.8% of these gamers (93.2 million) were paying to play. The pay-to-play conversion rate for the mobile gaming industry was closer to 2% in 2020.  As long as Sea is generating revenue from users at a considerably higher clip than the industry average, it should command a valuation premium.\nThe second rapidly growing segment is digital financial services. Though this division is still relatively nascent, the number of paying mobile wallet users grew to 39.3 million in the third quarter. Since many of the regions targeted by Sea are underbanked emerging markets, offering digital financial tools that can democratize the payment process could be a long-term game-changer.\nBut the third and most exciting operating segment is its e-commerce division, Shopee. Among downloadable shopping apps, Shopee consistently reigns supreme in Southeastern Asia. Between COVID-19 keeping people in their homes and middle-class consumers fueling buying activity in emerging market economies, Shopee is set up for success. In fact, its annual gross merchandise value (GMV) run-rate of $67.2 billion (based on third-quarter 2021 figures) is more than six times higher than the GMV the company reported in all of 2018.\nSea Limited could very well be one of the fastest-growing mega-cap stocks on the planet this decade.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPlanet 13 Holdings\nAnother top stock with all the tools necessary to make investors richer in December and for many years in the future is U.S. marijuana stock Planet 13 Holdings.\nEasily the biggest objection to investing in U.S. pot stocks is the fact that Congress still hasn't enacted cannabis legalization efforts. While it would make life easier for marijuana companies if the federal government would enact reforms, the vast majority of publicly traded pot stocks are primed for success if the status quo continues. With 36 states having legalized weed in some capacity, and the Department of Justice maintaining a hands-off policy, U.S. cannabis stocks like Planet 13 can bloom into successful businesses.\nFor the vast majority of multi-state operators (MSOs), their strategy consists of targeting big-dollar markets and planting their proverbial flag in as many states as possible. But this isn't how Planet 13 operates. It gets its competitive edge by focusing just as much on the immersive shopping experience as it does on making a sale.\nFor the moment, Planet 13 has just two operating dispensaries. The first is the Las Vegas SuperStore just west of the Strip. It's 112,000 square feet in size and contains a restaurant, events center, and consumer-facing processing center. In July 2021, Planet 13 opened its Orange County SuperStore about 10 minutes from Disneyland in Santa Ana, California. It spans 55,000 square feet and features a whopping 16,500 square feet of selling space.'\nPlanet 13's stores are a must-see for cannabis tourists as well as locals. In fact, significantly reduced tourist traffic to Las Vegas during the pandemic forced the company to begin focusing on local residents. With Las Vegas tourism returning to some semblance of normal, Planet 13 now has both tourist appeal and a strong local resident following.\nThe company has also had quite a bit of success launching its own cannabis brands. According to Headset, via third-quarter commentary from Planet 13 CEO Larry Scheffler, Trendi comprises 5% of Nevada's vape sales, with HaHa edibles accounting for 14% of the Silver State's edible sales.\nWith Planet 13 on the cusp of recurring profitability and more than 50% below its February high, the time for opportunistic investors to pounce is now.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nTeva Pharmaceutical Industries\nAs for you value investors, the top stock that can make you richer in December and beyond is brand-name and generic drug developer Teva Pharmaceutical Industries.\nTeva has dealt with a laundry list of bad news events over the five years. The company settled bribery charges with U.S. regulators, grossly overpaid for generic drugmaker Actavis, completely shelved its dividend, and saw its top-selling drug -- multiple sclerosis drug Copaxone -- lose patent exclusivity. But the biggest concern of late is the ongoing litigation Teva is facing over its role in the opioid crisis.\nWhile these are not the types of hurdles that get leaped in a single bound, Teva's CEO Kare Schultz has done an exemplary job of getting the company back on track. Schultz is a bona fide turnaround specialist who's been with the company for a little over four years. In that time, he's reduced Teva's net debt from more than $34 billion to around $22 billion. This has been accomplished by selling off non-core assets, reducing annual operating expenses by billions of dollars, and utilizing the company's bountiful operating cash flow to pay down debt. There no question that Teva is a more financially sound company now than when Schultz was first given the reins.\nSchultz is expected to play a key role in helping Teva navigate a sea of litigation, too. With the company focused on reducing debt, Schultz will aim to settle litigation with minimal amounts of cash. Instead, look for the company to offer free or reduced-price medication to states over roughly a decade as a way of potentially settling opioid litigation. It also doesn't hurt that a California trial found drugmakers weren't liable for the opioid epidemic. This puts added momentum in Teva's sails.\nOver the long run, Teva should be buoyed by increased usage of generics. Rapidly rising brand-name drug list prices, coupled with growing access to healthcare services, should lift Teva's generic drug pricing power and overall sales volume.\nAt roughly three times (yes,three times!) Wall Street's consensus forward-year earnings per share, you'd struggle to find a more deeply discounted drug stock right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":600,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":606543316,"gmtCreate":1638907585319,"gmtModify":1638907585319,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go Apple!&nbsp;","listText":"Go Apple!&nbsp;","text":"Go Apple!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/606543316","repostId":"1159685639","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159685639","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1638888367,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1159685639?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-07 22:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159685639","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high after the company got another street-high target on vir","content":"<p>Apple shares rose more than 3% to a new high&nbsp;after&nbsp;the&nbsp;company&nbsp;got another street-high target on virtual reality boost.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb9792aa89d24847aee38f67d56067eb\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Apple Inc.&nbsp;got its second Street-high price target as Morgan Stanley sees it benefiting from new product categories in virtual reality and autonomous vehicles.</p>\n<p>Analyst Katy Huberty, who rates Apple overweight, raised her price target to $200 from $164, matching Wedbush as the highest among targets tracked by Bloomberg. </p>\n<p>While investors have struggled to value the iPhone maker’s new products given the company’s secrecy, Huberty expects augmented and virtual reality, as well as autonomous vehicles, to eventually be priced in, and says Apple should also benefit from a “flight to quality” in technology stocks.</p>\n<p>“Despite a consistent and material revenue contribution from new products and services over time, Apple shares don’t seem to bake in the impact from upcoming new product launches,” Huberty wrote in a note. “We believe this will change as Apple approaches the launch of an AR/VR product over the next year.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d1d69bd985c3b74963515674f2da918\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"675\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Apple’s shares have surged 25% this year and ended Monday’s session at a fresh record.

Its third-quarter loss widened to $988 million from $621 million a year earlier, while revenue declined about 9% to $157 million.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":707,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":606543432,"gmtCreate":1638908091915,"gmtModify":1638908091915,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Agree!&nbsp;","listText":"Agree!&nbsp;","text":"Agree!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/606543432","repostId":"1162682713","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162682713","pubTimestamp":1638887298,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1162682713?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-07 22:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: A True 'Never Sell' Position","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1162682713","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nWith $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on share","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>With $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on shareholder-friendly practices alone.</li>\n <li>In addition, the company will still see double-digit growth in wearables and services, even if iPhone slows down a little.</li>\n <li>The Apple ecosystem also stands to get more intertwined with a potential Apple Car and AR/VR plays.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/404c4a2883110ed556fd9700c5cffb83\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>CatLane/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>At an almost $3T market cap, I am still a holder of Apple (AAPL).

They're just things to be aware of. Apple does have a history of great execution (MacBook keyboard and Touch Bar aside), however, so an investor should feel at least somewhat comfortable that the company will put its best foot forward.</p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>At a valuation nearing $3T one would assume there isn't much room left to run in Apple, but investors still stand to beat the overall market in this name thanks to excellent capital allocation.</p>\n<p>Apple has $315B in authorized buybacks and returns some $14.5B in dividends each year. Apple will likely buyback close to $100B in stock during its 2022 fiscal year which, alone, represents a 3.7% return on today's prices. Combined with a dividend yield of 0.6%, investors will make 4.3% on this name through shareholder friendly practices alone.</p>\n<p>Those numbers will compound too, another $100B in 2023, $100B in 2024, it all adds up. That $300B is all authorized too.</p>\n<p>Along with those buybacks and dividends, investors are buying into a company that, last year, defied laws of large numbers and grew its top-line at 33%. While unlikely this year, I still expect that the wearables and services divisions will grow at double digits which will allow Apple to see high single-digit revenue growth through the coming 3-5 years.</p>\n<p>Those with a bearish view on Apple act as though this juggernaut will vanish overnight, but that's simply not true. Sure, you're unlikely to pull down 30%+ annual returns going forward, but if you're looking for a high-quality stable business that can beat the market little-by-little, Apple is a great horse (or car) to back.</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>Apple: A True 'Never Sell' Position</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\">\nApple: A True 'Never Sell' Position\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-07 22:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nWith $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on shareholder-friendly practices alone.\nIn addition, the company will still see double-digit growth in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4473801-apple-a-true-never-sell-position","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1162682713","content_text":"Summary\n\nWith $315B in authorized share buybacks and a 0.6% yield, Apple should return 4.3% on shareholder-friendly practices alone.\nIn addition, the company will still see double-digit growth in wearables and services, even if iPhone slows down a little.\nThe Apple ecosystem also stands to get more intertwined with a potential Apple Car and AR/VR plays.\n\nCatLane/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nAt an almost $3T market cap, I am still a holder of Apple (AAPL).

Sure, you're unlikely to pull down 30%+ annual returns going forward, but if you're looking for a high-quality stable business that can beat the market little-by-little, Apple is a great horse (or car) to back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1090,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":600995747,"gmtCreate":1638028644986,"gmtModify":1638063470113,"author":{"id":"4100787327165020","authorId":"4100787327165020","name":"Cazwyh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a50709c3a01b4bc64250ae4ff8f5454b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very interesting!&nbsp;","listText":"Very interesting!&nbsp;","text":"Very interesting!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/600995747","repostId":"1197762499","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1197762499","pubTimestamp":1637969072,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1197762499?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-27 07:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Stocks to Buy to Build Your Own ‘Elon Musk’ Portfolio","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1197762499","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"There’s no denying that one of the most influential names in the financial world is Elon Musk.

With all this mind, it seems a safe assessment that this is exactly the type of company that would have a high proximity to Musk, given his dynamic reach into many different areas of science and emerging tech.

The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> fell nearly 5% in September, then after a rebound in October, it dropped around 4% during the last three weeks of November.</p>\n<p>Between soaring inflation and the COVID-19 omicron variant,&nbsp;there are a few explanations for why the market has been shaky lately. But will this volatility lead to a full-blown crash in 2022? Here's what you need to know.</p>\n<h2>Just how likely is a market crash?</h2>\n<p>There are several factors that could point to greater volatility next year. Inflation, for example, is at a record high. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Consumer Price Index is up 6.8% year over year, its highest since 1982.</p>\n<p>In response, the Federal Reserve is aggressively dialing back its bond buying program, which was intended to bolster the economy during the early stages of the pandemic. The Fed is also expected to raise interest rates three times next year to further combat rising inflation.</p>\n<p>In addition, the omicron variant is continuing to spread across the U.S., causing concern that we could be entering another wave of the pandemic.</p>\n<p>While all of these factors could potentially result in a market downturn, it's impossible to say for certain what will happen next year. If the stock market is famous for anything, it's its unpredictability. Case in point: For more than a year and a half, the market has been shattering records -- despite a global pandemic, record inflation, a labor shortage, supply chain issues, and other economic concerns.</p>\n<h2>How to prepare for a potential crash</h2>\n<p>While it may seem counterintuitive, the best way to prepare for a market crash is to keep investing normally regardless of what happens.</p>\n<p>Trying to time the market and sell your investments before a crash is a dangerous move, and it could result in huge losses. If you sell everything and the market doesn't crash, you'll miss out on those earnings. Then if you eventually reinvest, stock prices may have increased since you sold. Conversely, if you sell too late after the market is already on a downhill slide, you may be selling your stocks for less than you paid for them.</p>\n<p>Your best bet, then, is to continue investing despite any potential stock market volatility. You won't lose any money until you sell, even if prices plummet. The market also has a 100% success rate when it comes to recovering from crashes, so as long as you're patient and avoid selling your stocks, you can simply ride out the storm.</p>\n<p>The key to surviving market turbulence is to make sure you're investing in quality stocks.

The S&P 500 fell nearly 5% in September, then after a rebound in October, it dropped around 4% during the last three weeks of November.\nBetween soaring inflation and the COVID-19 omicron variant, there are a few explanations for why the market has been shaky lately. But will this volatility lead to a full-blown crash in 2022? Here's what you need to know.\nJust how likely is a market crash?\nThere are several factors that could point to greater volatility next year. Inflation, for example, is at a record high. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Consumer Price Index is up 6.8% year over year, its highest since 1982.\nIn response, the Federal Reserve is aggressively dialing back its bond buying program, which was intended to bolster the economy during the early stages of the pandemic. The Fed is also expected to raise interest rates three times next year to further combat rising inflation.\nIn addition, the omicron variant is continuing to spread across the U.S., causing concern that we could be entering another wave of the pandemic.\nWhile all of these factors could potentially result in a market downturn, it's impossible to say for certain what will happen next year. If the stock market is famous for anything, it's its unpredictability. Case in point: For more than a year and a half, the market has been shattering records -- despite a global pandemic, record inflation, a labor shortage, supply chain issues, and other economic concerns.\nHow to prepare for a potential crash\nWhile it may seem counterintuitive, the best way to prepare for a market crash is to keep investing normally regardless of what happens.\nTrying to time the market and sell your investments before a crash is a dangerous move, and it could result in huge losses. If you sell everything and the market doesn't crash, you'll miss out on those earnings. Then if you eventually reinvest, stock prices may have increased since you sold. Conversely, if you sell too late after the market is already on a downhill slide, you may be selling your stocks for less than you paid for them.\nYour best bet, then, is to continue investing despite any potential stock market volatility. You won't lose any money until you sell, even if prices plummet. The market also has a 100% success rate when it comes to recovering from crashes, so as long as you're patient and avoid selling your stocks, you can simply ride out the storm.\nThe key to surviving market turbulence is to make sure you're investing in quality stocks. The best investments are the ones with solid fundamentals. This means the companies have strong financials, a competent leadership team, and a history of performing well over time.\nWhile even the strongest stocks may take a hit in the short term, they're more likely to bounce back after a crash. Regardless of whether the market crashes in 2022 or not, a solid portfolio will ensure you're as prepared as possible.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":823,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
