Prudential expects total proceeds of about $2.8 billion from the sale, which is expected to close in the first quarter of next year, the companies said in a statement. It will boost Empower’s customer base by about 4 million people to 16.6 million participants.</p>\n<p>Lowrey is working to transform Prudential’s business through deals, cost savings and share buybacks, including selling off interest-rate sensitive businesses and making acquisitions in growth markets. Prudential will continue participating in the retirement market, serving retirees, employers and those collecting on annuities, through businesses including its individual-annuities unit and PGIM, Prudential’s asset manager.</p>\n<p>“Today’s announcement is a significant milestone in Prudential’s transformation and the execution of our strategy to become a higher growth, less market sensitive, more nimble business,” Lowrey said in the statement.</p>\n<p>Prudential, based in Newark, New Jersey, said it will use proceeds from the transaction for general corporate purposes.

Prudential expects total proceeds of about $2.8 billion from the sale, which is expected to close in the first quarter of next year, the companies said in a statement. It will boost Empower’s customer base by about 4 million people to 16.6 million participants.\nLowrey is working to transform Prudential’s business through deals, cost savings and share buybacks, including selling off interest-rate sensitive businesses and making acquisitions in growth markets. Prudential will continue participating in the retirement market, serving retirees, employers and those collecting on annuities, through businesses including its individual-annuities unit and PGIM, Prudential’s asset manager.\n“Today’s announcement is a significant milestone in Prudential’s transformation and the execution of our strategy to become a higher growth, less market sensitive, more nimble business,” Lowrey said in the statement.\nPrudential, based in Newark, New Jersey, said it will use proceeds from the transaction for general corporate purposes. It now plans to increase capital returned to shareholders by 2023 to $11 billion from the $10.5 billion announced in May, and will reduce financial leverage.\nBloomberg News reported earlier this year that Prudential was exploring a sale of its retirement business.

Buffett isn't infallible, but he's delivered an annual average return of 20% since the mid-1960s for his shareholders. In aggregate, we're talking about a return of more than 2,800,000%!</p>\n<p>What's even more amazing is that Buffett hasn't done anything the average investors couldn't do to net these huge gains. He focuses on a few sectors and industries that interest him, buys companies with clear-cut competitive advantages, and most importantly hangs onto those stakes for a very long time.</p>\n<p>Another source of Buffett's success is concentration. The Oracle of Omaha doesn't believe diversification is necessary if you know what you're doing. This is readily apparent in Berkshire Hathaway's $302.6 billion investment portfolio. As of this past weekend, 85% of Berkshire's invested assets ($257.3 billion) were tied up in only 10 stocks.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/601f21f3cc2f9e5524bd5d613063faa2\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Apple: $115.6 billion</h2>\n<p>Tech kingpin <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) makes up about 38% of Warren Buffett's portfolio by itself and has been dubbed \"Berkshire's third business\" by the Oracle of Omaha. Apple offers some of the strongest branding in the world, is the clear leader in smartphones in the U.S., and has been pivoting to higher-margin services under the leadership of CEO Tim Cook. Though iPhone sales remain Apple's top product, services becoming a larger percentage of total sales will help remove the revenue lumpiness associated with new product launches.</p>\n<h2>2. Bank of America: $43.2 billion</h2>\n<p>Bank stocks have long been Buffett's favorite place to put Berkshire's money work. <b>Bank of America</b> (NYSE:BAC) is Berkshire's unquestioned largest bank holding, with more than 14% of invested assets. Bank of America has done an excellent job of controlling its noninterest expenses by consolidating branches and emphasizing digital banking. It's also in line to benefit more than any other money-center bank from an eventual rise in interest rates.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed3e6a16841306014bf0cfc3b1697b23\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: American <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXPR\">Express</a>.</span></p>\n<h2>3. American Express: $24.9 billion</h2>\n<p>Payment processor and lender <b>American Express</b> (NYSE:AXP) is Buffett's third-largest and third-longest-held stock. After 28 years of holding AmEx, Berkshire Hathaway's position has grown to almost $25 billion in value. This is a cyclical company that benefits from long periods of economic expansion, as well as its ability to attract affluent clientele. These well-to-do clients are less likely to change their spending habits when economic hiccups arise, which often means less worry about credit delinquencies for AmEx.</p>\n<h2>4. Coca-Cola: $22.5 billion</h2>\n<p>Speaking of long-tenured holdings, beverage behemoth <b>Coca-Cola</b> (NYSE:KO) is the longest-held stock in Buffett's portfolio (33 years). Coca-Cola operates in all but two countries worldwide (North Korea and Cuba) and has more than 20 brands generating at least $1 billion in annual sales. Thanks to its top-notch marketing team, it's also the best-known consumer goods brand. Coke has holiday tie-ins, has allied itself with well-known brand ambassadors, and is embracing digital advertising and social media as a way to get its message to a younger generation.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc21d6aabfd53f63ded95ae16cbd64e1\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"468\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>5. Kraft Heinz: $14.1 billion</h2>\n<p>There's little question that <b>Kraft Heinz</b> (NASDAQ:KHC) is the oddball holding in Buffett's top 10. That's because Buffett admits to Heinz overpaying for Kraft Foods, and the combined company largely underperforming in recent years. This includes a greater than $15 billion goodwill writedown in 2019. While the pandemic has helped boost demand for packaged foods, Kraft Heinz's balance sheet is still bogged down by high debt levels and goodwill. In short, Berkshire Hathaway is sort of stuck with its 325.6 million shares.</p>\n<h2>6. Verizon Communications: $9.1 billion</h2>\n<p>Telecommunications giant <b>Verizon</b> (NYSE:VZ) is a fairly recent addition to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, although it's been bought hand over fist in the previous two quarters by Buffett and his team. The lure of Verizon is likely its 4.4% dividend yield, which is arguably <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the safest high-yield payouts on the planet. What's more, Verizon should benefit immensely from the rollout of 5G infrastructure. It's been a decade since the last major upgrade to download speeds, which suggests that a multiyear tech upgrade cycle will lead to higher-margin data consumption.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7343c3ce7330b86321a8ec9384d4baea\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>7. U.S. Bancorp: $8.7 billion</h2>\n<p>Next to BofA, <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> (NYSE:USB) is Buffett's favorite bank stock. It's a company that regularly trades at a premium to its book value -- and for good reason. U.S. Bancorp has seen its users embrace technology, with the percentage of consumer loans completed digitally skyrocketing over the past two years. Being able to consolidate its physical branches, while also avoiding riskier derivative investments that have gotten U.S. money-center banks in trouble, has helped U.S. Bancorp to some of the highest return on assets among big banks.</p>\n<h2>8. Moody's: $8.5 billion</h2>\n<p>Credit agency and analytics company <b>Moody's</b> (NYSE:MCO) is yet another top-10 holding that's been held for longer than two decades. With an initial cost basis of just over $10, Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on an unrealized gain of better than 3,300% -- and this isn't accounting for dividends. Historically low lending rates have kept Moody's credit rating segment busy, while volatile trading markets are boosting demand for Moody's analytics. It's hard to envision Buffett ever selling this stake.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8abdae403dddfa42107e06ea5bfddf39\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>9. BYD: $6.2 billion</h2>\n<p>Back in 2008, Buffett acquired 225 million shares of China-based electric-vehicle (EV) manufacturer <b>BYD</b> (OTC:BYDDY)&nbsp;for $1.03 a share (it closed this past week at $27.65 a share). In March, BYD sold 16,301 EVs, which is more than higher-profile competitors <b>NIO</b>&nbsp;and <b>XPeng</b>&nbsp;delivered on a combined basis in the same month. With the Society of Automotive Engineers of China forecasting that half of all new vehicles sales in 2035 will be powered by alternative energy, BYD is in pole position to disrupt the largest auto market in the world.</p>\n<h2>10. DaVita: $4.4 billion</h2>\n<p>Rounding out the top 10 is kidney dialysis services company <b>DaVita</b> (NYSE:DVA). Buffett's fascination with the company is likely a numbers play. Over time, an aging U.S. population is going to become more reliant on kidney dialysis services for maintenance purposes.

Buffett isn't infallible, but he's delivered an annual average return of 20% since the mid-1960s for his shareholders. In aggregate, we're talking about a return of more than 2,800,000%!\nWhat's even more amazing is that Buffett hasn't done anything the average investors couldn't do to net these huge gains. He focuses on a few sectors and industries that interest him, buys companies with clear-cut competitive advantages, and most importantly hangs onto those stakes for a very long time.\nAnother source of Buffett's success is concentration. The Oracle of Omaha doesn't believe diversification is necessary if you know what you're doing. This is readily apparent in Berkshire Hathaway's $302.6 billion investment portfolio. As of this past weekend, 85% of Berkshire's invested assets ($257.3 billion) were tied up in only 10 stocks.\nBerkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.\n1. Apple: $115.6 billion\nTech kingpin Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) makes up about 38% of Warren Buffett's portfolio by itself and has been dubbed \"Berkshire's third business\" by the Oracle of Omaha. Apple offers some of the strongest branding in the world, is the clear leader in smartphones in the U.S., and has been pivoting to higher-margin services under the leadership of CEO Tim Cook. Though iPhone sales remain Apple's top product, services becoming a larger percentage of total sales will help remove the revenue lumpiness associated with new product launches.\n2. Bank of America: $43.2 billion\nBank stocks have long been Buffett's favorite place to put Berkshire's money work. Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) is Berkshire's unquestioned largest bank holding, with more than 14% of invested assets. Bank of America has done an excellent job of controlling its noninterest expenses by consolidating branches and emphasizing digital banking. It's also in line to benefit more than any other money-center bank from an eventual rise in interest rates.\nImage source: American Express.\n3. American Express: $24.9 billion\nPayment processor and lender American Express (NYSE:AXP) is Buffett's third-largest and third-longest-held stock. After 28 years of holding AmEx, Berkshire Hathaway's position has grown to almost $25 billion in value. This is a cyclical company that benefits from long periods of economic expansion, as well as its ability to attract affluent clientele. These well-to-do clients are less likely to change their spending habits when economic hiccups arise, which often means less worry about credit delinquencies for AmEx.\n4. Coca-Cola: $22.5 billion\nSpeaking of long-tenured holdings, beverage behemoth Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) is the longest-held stock in Buffett's portfolio (33 years). Coca-Cola operates in all but two countries worldwide (North Korea and Cuba) and has more than 20 brands generating at least $1 billion in annual sales. Thanks to its top-notch marketing team, it's also the best-known consumer goods brand. Coke has holiday tie-ins, has allied itself with well-known brand ambassadors, and is embracing digital advertising and social media as a way to get its message to a younger generation.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n5. Kraft Heinz: $14.1 billion\nThere's little question that Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) is the oddball holding in Buffett's top 10. That's because Buffett admits to Heinz overpaying for Kraft Foods, and the combined company largely underperforming in recent years. This includes a greater than $15 billion goodwill writedown in 2019. While the pandemic has helped boost demand for packaged foods, Kraft Heinz's balance sheet is still bogged down by high debt levels and goodwill. In short, Berkshire Hathaway is sort of stuck with its 325.6 million shares.\n6. Verizon Communications: $9.1 billion\nTelecommunications giant Verizon (NYSE:VZ) is a fairly recent addition to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, although it's been bought hand over fist in the previous two quarters by Buffett and his team. The lure of Verizon is likely its 4.4% dividend yield, which is arguably one of the safest high-yield payouts on the planet. What's more, Verizon should benefit immensely from the rollout of 5G infrastructure. It's been a decade since the last major upgrade to download speeds, which suggests that a multiyear tech upgrade cycle will lead to higher-margin data consumption.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n7. U.S. Bancorp: $8.7 billion\nNext to BofA, U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:USB) is Buffett's favorite bank stock. It's a company that regularly trades at a premium to its book value -- and for good reason. U.S. Bancorp has seen its users embrace technology, with the percentage of consumer loans completed digitally skyrocketing over the past two years. Being able to consolidate its physical branches, while also avoiding riskier derivative investments that have gotten U.S. money-center banks in trouble, has helped U.S. Bancorp to some of the highest return on assets among big banks.\n8. Moody's: $8.5 billion\nCredit agency and analytics company Moody's (NYSE:MCO) is yet another top-10 holding that's been held for longer than two decades. With an initial cost basis of just over $10, Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on an unrealized gain of better than 3,300% -- and this isn't accounting for dividends. Historically low lending rates have kept Moody's credit rating segment busy, while volatile trading markets are boosting demand for Moody's analytics. It's hard to envision Buffett ever selling this stake.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n9. BYD: $6.2 billion\nBack in 2008, Buffett acquired 225 million shares of China-based electric-vehicle (EV) manufacturer BYD (OTC:BYDDY) for $1.03 a share (it closed this past week at $27.65 a share). In March, BYD sold 16,301 EVs, which is more than higher-profile competitors NIO and XPeng delivered on a combined basis in the same month. With the Society of Automotive Engineers of China forecasting that half of all new vehicles sales in 2035 will be powered by alternative energy, BYD is in pole position to disrupt the largest auto market in the world.\n10. DaVita: $4.4 billion\nRounding out the top 10 is kidney dialysis services company DaVita (NYSE:DVA). Buffett's fascination with the company is likely a numbers play. Over time, an aging U.S. population is going to become more reliant on kidney dialysis services for maintenance purposes. As the clear leader in providing these services, DaVita should see a steady uptick in demand and reimbursement for its services. This patient long-term thesis perfectly embodies the Buffett investing ethos.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":217,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184410588,"gmtCreate":1623721267344,"gmtModify":1634029597745,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184410588","repostId":"2143733744","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143733744","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1623717601,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2143733744?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Disney CEO says 40% of upfront ad sales went to streaming or digital","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143733744","media":"Reuters","summary":"LOS ANGELES, June 14 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co's advertising revenue for the upcoming fall televisi","content":"<p>LOS ANGELES, June 14 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co's advertising revenue for the upcoming fall television season rose by \"double-digits\" from the levels of 2019 before the global pandemic, Chief Executive Bob Chapek said on Monday.</p>\n<p>About 40% of sales during the \"upfront\" sales period went to streaming or digital ads, Chapek said at Credit Suisse's virtual Communications Conference.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Its Foundry platform provides data-mining tools to large commercial customers.</p>\n<p>C3.ai serves a wide range of clients across the commercial, industrial, and government sectors. It generates most of its revenue from energy giants like&nbsp;<b>Baker Hughes</b>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<b>ENGIE</b>.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0f7a2339e0b8de3ba56318f8cab73d4\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1076\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p>Palantir -- which went public via a&nbsp;direct listing&nbsp;last September -- started trading at $10 per share, surged to the high $30s in February, and now trades in the mid-$20s. C3.ai went public at $42 per share via an IPO last December, opened at $100 on the first day, but now trades in the low $60s.</p>\n<p>Both stocks have underperformed the S&amp;P 500 this year as investors have been moving from growth to value stocks, but is one of these companies a better long-term play on the&nbsp;booming AI market?</p>\n<p><b>The differences between Palantir and C3.ai</b></p>\n<p>Palantir, which is named after the all-seeing orbs from<i>The Lord of the Ring</i>s, helps organizations accumulate data on individuals from disparate sources, then processes it with algorithms to make data-driven decisions.</p>\n<p>Palantir's biggest customer is the U.S. government, and its tools are used by the CIA, FBI, ICE, and all branches of the military. Its technology was reportedly used to hunt down Osama bin Laden in 2011, but it was also used by ICE in recent years to locate and deport undocumented immigrants.</p>\n<p>C3.ai initially only served energy companies before expanding into other markets. Unlike Palantir, which gathers data from external and internal sources, C3.ai mainly uses a company's internal operations.</p>\n<p>C3.ai's algorithms can schedule maintenance routines, detect fraud, optimize inventories, and improve CRM (customer relationship management) systems. In short, it's a lot less controversial bet than Palantir.</p>\n<p><b>How fast is Palantir growing?</b></p>\n<p>Palantir's revenue increased 47% to $1.1 billion&nbsp;in 2020. Its government revenue rose 77% as its commercial revenue grew 22%.</p>\n<p>It expanded its government contracts with the FDA, U.S. Army, and&nbsp;U.S. Air Force, and its commercial business attracted big customers including&nbsp;<b>Rio Tinto</b>,<b>PG&amp;E</b>, and&nbsp;<b>BP</b>. Its adjusted gross and operating margins expanded, but it still posted a net loss of $1.2 billion -- compared to a loss of $580 million in 2019.</p>\n<p>In the first quarter of 2021, Palantir's revenue rose 49% year-over-year to $341 million, with 76% growth in its government business and 19% growth in its commercial business. Its adjusted gross and operating margins expanded again, but its net loss again widened, from $54.3 million to $123.5 million. On the bright side, its&nbsp;adjusted EBITDA&nbsp;turned positive with a profit of $119.8 million -- but that excludes its stock-based compensation and a lot of \"one time\" expenses.</p>\n<p>Wall Street expects Palantir's revenue to rise 35% this year, while the company expects its annual revenue to increase more than 30% every year through 2025. That confident outlook indicates a belief that its government business will remain stable as it gradually gains more commercial customers, but the company could remain steeped in controversy about data-gathering and deeply unprofitable for years to come.</p>\n<p><b>How fast is C3.ai growing?</b></p>\n<p>C3.ai's revenue rose 17% to $183.2 million in&nbsp;fiscal 2021, which ended in April. That marked a significant slowdown from its 71% growth in 2020, mainly due to pandemic-related disruptions of the energy and industrial sectors.</p>\n<p>Its average contract value also decreased from $12.1 million in 2020 to $7.2 million in 2021, even as it initiated new enterprise AI projects with big customers like&nbsp;<b>3M</b>,<b>Consolidated Edison</b>,<b>Shell</b>, and the New York Power Authority. But its total number of customers rose 82% to 89 at the end of the year, which indicates its business could recover quickly after the pandemic ends. It expects its revenue to increase 33% to 35% in the current fiscal year.</p>\n<p>C3.ai's adjusted gross margin stayed flat in fiscal 2021 as its operating margin remained in the red, but its net loss narrowed year-over-year from $69.4 million to $55.7 million. It doesn't calculate its profits in adjusted EBITDA terms, and analysts expect it to stay unprofitable for the foreseeable future.</p>\n<p><b>The valuations and verdict</b></p>\n<p>Palantir and C3.ai trade at 31 and 26 times this year's sales, respectively.

Its Foundry platform provides data-mining tools to large commercial customers.\nC3.ai serves a wide range of clients across the commercial, industrial, and government sectors. It generates most of its revenue from energy giants like Baker Hughes and ENGIE.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nPalantir -- which went public via a direct listing last September -- started trading at $10 per share, surged to the high $30s in February, and now trades in the mid-$20s. C3.ai went public at $42 per share via an IPO last December, opened at $100 on the first day, but now trades in the low $60s.\nBoth stocks have underperformed the S&P 500 this year as investors have been moving from growth to value stocks, but is one of these companies a better long-term play on the booming AI market?\nThe differences between Palantir and C3.ai\nPalantir, which is named after the all-seeing orbs fromThe Lord of the Rings, helps organizations accumulate data on individuals from disparate sources, then processes it with algorithms to make data-driven decisions.\nPalantir's biggest customer is the U.S. government, and its tools are used by the CIA, FBI, ICE, and all branches of the military. Its technology was reportedly used to hunt down Osama bin Laden in 2011, but it was also used by ICE in recent years to locate and deport undocumented immigrants.\nC3.ai initially only served energy companies before expanding into other markets. Unlike Palantir, which gathers data from external and internal sources, C3.ai mainly uses a company's internal operations.\nC3.ai's algorithms can schedule maintenance routines, detect fraud, optimize inventories, and improve CRM (customer relationship management) systems. In short, it's a lot less controversial bet than Palantir.\nHow fast is Palantir growing?\nPalantir's revenue increased 47% to $1.1 billion in 2020. Its government revenue rose 77% as its commercial revenue grew 22%.\nIt expanded its government contracts with the FDA, U.S. Army, and U.S. Air Force, and its commercial business attracted big customers including Rio Tinto,PG&E, and BP. Its adjusted gross and operating margins expanded, but it still posted a net loss of $1.2 billion -- compared to a loss of $580 million in 2019.\nIn the first quarter of 2021, Palantir's revenue rose 49% year-over-year to $341 million, with 76% growth in its government business and 19% growth in its commercial business. Its adjusted gross and operating margins expanded again, but its net loss again widened, from $54.3 million to $123.5 million. On the bright side, its adjusted EBITDA turned positive with a profit of $119.8 million -- but that excludes its stock-based compensation and a lot of \"one time\" expenses.\nWall Street expects Palantir's revenue to rise 35% this year, while the company expects its annual revenue to increase more than 30% every year through 2025. That confident outlook indicates a belief that its government business will remain stable as it gradually gains more commercial customers, but the company could remain steeped in controversy about data-gathering and deeply unprofitable for years to come.\nHow fast is C3.ai growing?\nC3.ai's revenue rose 17% to $183.2 million in fiscal 2021, which ended in April. That marked a significant slowdown from its 71% growth in 2020, mainly due to pandemic-related disruptions of the energy and industrial sectors.\nIts average contract value also decreased from $12.1 million in 2020 to $7.2 million in 2021, even as it initiated new enterprise AI projects with big customers like 3M,Consolidated Edison,Shell, and the New York Power Authority. But its total number of customers rose 82% to 89 at the end of the year, which indicates its business could recover quickly after the pandemic ends. It expects its revenue to increase 33% to 35% in the current fiscal year.\nC3.ai's adjusted gross margin stayed flat in fiscal 2021 as its operating margin remained in the red, but its net loss narrowed year-over-year from $69.4 million to $55.7 million. It doesn't calculate its profits in adjusted EBITDA terms, and analysts expect it to stay unprofitable for the foreseeable future.\nThe valuations and verdict\nPalantir and C3.ai trade at 31 and 26 times this year's sales, respectively. Those high price-to-sales ratios indicate neither stock is cheap in this market, especially as investors rotate from growth to value stocks.\nThat said, it makes more sense to invest in the company that is more dependent on stable government customers than the one that relies heavily on the macro-sensitive energy and industrial sectors. It also makes more sense to invest in the company with superior revenue growth if both stocks are trading at comparable price-to-sales ratios.\nTherefore, Palantir might be more controversial than C3.ai, but I believe it's the better growth play in the AI market. C3.ai's long-term prospects still look bright, but its stock remains too expensive relative to its growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":70,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182697249,"gmtCreate":1623567066681,"gmtModify":1634031569104,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"1 more year?","listText":"1 more year?","text":"1 more year?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/182697249","repostId":"1189143522","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189143522","pubTimestamp":1623513679,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1189143522?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-13 00:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Snowflake Is a Growth Juggernaut.

This a real value market, a real vote on the cycle,” she said. “The cycle may come into question if we’re right about how consumption is going to shift.”Wood said consumer spending is going to make a major move to the services sector after dominating in the goods sector during the coronavirus pandemic. This should spur a decline in commodity prices and cyclical stocks, setting the stage for outperformance in innovation names.Shares of Ark’s flagship fund —Ark Innovation— are down nearly 10% this year to around $112 per share amid a sharp rotation into value stocks in 2021. The ETF is about 29% off its high in February as worries about how the Federal Reserve might react to inflation push investors away from innovation names.Despite the weakness in her funds’ top holdings, Wood has been buying her highest conviction names, some that are at a significant discount to their levels earlier in the year.“We have capitalized on this volatility by selling names that have held up better than others and moving into names ... those that we have a high degree of conviction and those that are more opportunistic,” she said.In June, Wood has purchased in her various funds shares ofNetflix,Etsy, Google-parentAlphabet,Zoom Video,Crispr TherapeuticsandDocuSign. Wood is even doubling down on her top holdingTesla, which has fallen about 33% from its 52-week high.Wood alsopurchased millions of shares in Coinbase Globalas the world’s largest crypto exchange tanked alongside the price ofbitcoinlast month. Coinbase is now Ark Innovation’s ninth-largest holding.Wood now expects a 25% annual rate of return in her top holdings over the next five years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":59,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":115474490,"gmtCreate":1623029124410,"gmtModify":1634096111033,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The work of the Master&nbsp;of Coins?","listText":"The work of the Master&nbsp;of Coins?","text":"The work of the Master of Coins?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/115474490","repostId":"2141628501","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":100,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":115162255,"gmtCreate":1622959975077,"gmtModify":1634096552407,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I smell more upsides coming","listText":"I smell more upsides coming","text":"I smell more upsides coming","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/115162255","repostId":"2141283409","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2141283409","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1622944143,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2141283409?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-06 09:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Square to invest $5 mln in Blockstream's solar-powered bitcoin mining facility","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2141283409","media":"Reuters","summary":"June 5 (Reuters) - Blockchain technology company Blockstream Mining said on Saturday that Square Inc","content":"<p>June 5 (Reuters) - Blockchain technology company Blockstream Mining said on Saturday that Square Inc will invest $5 million to build an open-source, solar-powered bitcoin mining facility at one of Blockstream's U.S. sites.</p><p>Blockstream, in an announcement on its blog&nbsp;said the \"facility will be a proof-of-concept for a 100% renewable energy Bitcoin mine at scale.\"</p><p>Square, in a tweet  said it was teaming up with Blockstream as part of its Bitcoin Clean Energy Initiative.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It is also dealing with apublic relations backlashthere following some high-profile vehicle crashes, price changes and quality complaints from Chinese customers.\nJL Warren Capital CEO Junheng Li said in an e-mail to CNBC that even though Tesla hasn’t spoken about potential impacts of its PR crisis in China, she expects they will be material.\n“We see a definitive material impact on Tesla branding, orders and deliveries for future months, although it’s hard to quantify exactly to what extent the declining demand is driven by concerns on Tesla’s safety features, or rising competition especially from Chinese automakers,” she said.\nLi’s equity research firm focuses on Chinese and U.S. companies with significant exposure in China. Her firm estimated, in a note on June 1, that Tesla orders in China declined by around 30% in May compared to April. While that’s not as dire as the 50% drop reported by The Information, Warren noted that “both are disastrous.”\nChina represented last year the second-largest electric vehicle market in the world, according toIEA research. Tesla’s near-term growth hinges largely on its ability to make and sell cars successfully in China.\nAccording to analysis of Tesla job listings bySnow Bull Capital,the company is stepping up hiring for “Legal & Government Affairs” positions in 2021 across the country. It’s also generally ramping up hiring at its Shanghai plant.\nChinese Tesla rival Nio saw deliveries slide in May as a global semiconductor shortage hit its business. But another competitor, Xpeng, said it delivered 5,686 cars in May representing a 483% year-on-year rise and a 10% increase from the previous month.\nTesla shares are down about 15% year-to-date, and down more than 35% from their intraday high on Jan. 29.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":87,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":163759992,"gmtCreate":1623894287916,"gmtModify":1634026260475,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Most company are older than me if not as old as me","listText":"Most company are older than me if not as old as me","text":"Most company are older than me if not as old as me","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":7,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/163759992","repostId":"2143379379","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143379379","pubTimestamp":1623893744,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2143379379?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-17 09:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 10 Stocks Make Up 85% of Warren Buffett's Portfolio","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143379379","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Diversification isn't necessary if you know what you're doing, according to the Oracle of Omaha.","content":"<p>If you've ever wondered why <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) CEO Warren Buffett's name gets brought up so much on Wall Street, it's because of his impressive investing track record. Buffett isn't infallible, but he's delivered an annual average return of 20% since the mid-1960s for his shareholders. In aggregate, we're talking about a return of more than 2,800,000%!</p>\n<p>What's even more amazing is that Buffett hasn't done anything the average investors couldn't do to net these huge gains. He focuses on a few sectors and industries that interest him, buys companies with clear-cut competitive advantages, and most importantly hangs onto those stakes for a very long time.</p>\n<p>Another source of Buffett's success is concentration. The Oracle of Omaha doesn't believe diversification is necessary if you know what you're doing. This is readily apparent in Berkshire Hathaway's $302.6 billion investment portfolio. As of this past weekend, 85% of Berkshire's invested assets ($257.3 billion) were tied up in only 10 stocks.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/601f21f3cc2f9e5524bd5d613063faa2\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Apple: $115.6 billion</h2>\n<p>Tech kingpin <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) makes up about 38% of Warren Buffett's portfolio by itself and has been dubbed \"Berkshire's third business\" by the Oracle of Omaha. Apple offers some of the strongest branding in the world, is the clear leader in smartphones in the U.S., and has been pivoting to higher-margin services under the leadership of CEO Tim Cook. Though iPhone sales remain Apple's top product, services becoming a larger percentage of total sales will help remove the revenue lumpiness associated with new product launches.</p>\n<h2>2. Bank of America: $43.2 billion</h2>\n<p>Bank stocks have long been Buffett's favorite place to put Berkshire's money work. <b>Bank of America</b> (NYSE:BAC) is Berkshire's unquestioned largest bank holding, with more than 14% of invested assets. Bank of America has done an excellent job of controlling its noninterest expenses by consolidating branches and emphasizing digital banking. It's also in line to benefit more than any other money-center bank from an eventual rise in interest rates.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed3e6a16841306014bf0cfc3b1697b23\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: American <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXPR\">Express</a>.</span></p>\n<h2>3. American Express: $24.9 billion</h2>\n<p>Payment processor and lender <b>American Express</b> (NYSE:AXP) is Buffett's third-largest and third-longest-held stock. After 28 years of holding AmEx, Berkshire Hathaway's position has grown to almost $25 billion in value. This is a cyclical company that benefits from long periods of economic expansion, as well as its ability to attract affluent clientele. These well-to-do clients are less likely to change their spending habits when economic hiccups arise, which often means less worry about credit delinquencies for AmEx.</p>\n<h2>4. Coca-Cola: $22.5 billion</h2>\n<p>Speaking of long-tenured holdings, beverage behemoth <b>Coca-Cola</b> (NYSE:KO) is the longest-held stock in Buffett's portfolio (33 years). Coca-Cola operates in all but two countries worldwide (North Korea and Cuba) and has more than 20 brands generating at least $1 billion in annual sales. Thanks to its top-notch marketing team, it's also the best-known consumer goods brand. Coke has holiday tie-ins, has allied itself with well-known brand ambassadors, and is embracing digital advertising and social media as a way to get its message to a younger generation.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc21d6aabfd53f63ded95ae16cbd64e1\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"468\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>5. Kraft Heinz: $14.1 billion</h2>\n<p>There's little question that <b>Kraft Heinz</b> (NASDAQ:KHC) is the oddball holding in Buffett's top 10. That's because Buffett admits to Heinz overpaying for Kraft Foods, and the combined company largely underperforming in recent years. This includes a greater than $15 billion goodwill writedown in 2019. While the pandemic has helped boost demand for packaged foods, Kraft Heinz's balance sheet is still bogged down by high debt levels and goodwill. In short, Berkshire Hathaway is sort of stuck with its 325.6 million shares.</p>\n<h2>6. Verizon Communications: $9.1 billion</h2>\n<p>Telecommunications giant <b>Verizon</b> (NYSE:VZ) is a fairly recent addition to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, although it's been bought hand over fist in the previous two quarters by Buffett and his team. The lure of Verizon is likely its 4.4% dividend yield, which is arguably <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the safest high-yield payouts on the planet. What's more, Verizon should benefit immensely from the rollout of 5G infrastructure. It's been a decade since the last major upgrade to download speeds, which suggests that a multiyear tech upgrade cycle will lead to higher-margin data consumption.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7343c3ce7330b86321a8ec9384d4baea\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>7. U.S. Bancorp: $8.7 billion</h2>\n<p>Next to BofA, <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> (NYSE:USB) is Buffett's favorite bank stock. It's a company that regularly trades at a premium to its book value -- and for good reason. U.S. Bancorp has seen its users embrace technology, with the percentage of consumer loans completed digitally skyrocketing over the past two years. Being able to consolidate its physical branches, while also avoiding riskier derivative investments that have gotten U.S. money-center banks in trouble, has helped U.S. Bancorp to some of the highest return on assets among big banks.</p>\n<h2>8. Moody's: $8.5 billion</h2>\n<p>Credit agency and analytics company <b>Moody's</b> (NYSE:MCO) is yet another top-10 holding that's been held for longer than two decades. With an initial cost basis of just over $10, Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on an unrealized gain of better than 3,300% -- and this isn't accounting for dividends. Historically low lending rates have kept Moody's credit rating segment busy, while volatile trading markets are boosting demand for Moody's analytics. It's hard to envision Buffett ever selling this stake.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8abdae403dddfa42107e06ea5bfddf39\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>9. BYD: $6.2 billion</h2>\n<p>Back in 2008, Buffett acquired 225 million shares of China-based electric-vehicle (EV) manufacturer <b>BYD</b> (OTC:BYDDY)&nbsp;for $1.03 a share (it closed this past week at $27.65 a share). In March, BYD sold 16,301 EVs, which is more than higher-profile competitors <b>NIO</b>&nbsp;and <b>XPeng</b>&nbsp;delivered on a combined basis in the same month. With the Society of Automotive Engineers of China forecasting that half of all new vehicles sales in 2035 will be powered by alternative energy, BYD is in pole position to disrupt the largest auto market in the world.</p>\n<h2>10. DaVita: $4.4 billion</h2>\n<p>Rounding out the top 10 is kidney dialysis services company <b>DaVita</b> (NYSE:DVA). Buffett's fascination with the company is likely a numbers play. Over time, an aging U.S. population is going to become more reliant on kidney dialysis services for maintenance purposes.

Buffett isn't infallible, but he's delivered an annual average return of 20% since the mid-1960s for his shareholders. In aggregate, we're talking about a return of more than 2,800,000%!\nWhat's even more amazing is that Buffett hasn't done anything the average investors couldn't do to net these huge gains. He focuses on a few sectors and industries that interest him, buys companies with clear-cut competitive advantages, and most importantly hangs onto those stakes for a very long time.\nAnother source of Buffett's success is concentration. The Oracle of Omaha doesn't believe diversification is necessary if you know what you're doing. This is readily apparent in Berkshire Hathaway's $302.6 billion investment portfolio. As of this past weekend, 85% of Berkshire's invested assets ($257.3 billion) were tied up in only 10 stocks.\nBerkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.\n1. Apple: $115.6 billion\nTech kingpin Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) makes up about 38% of Warren Buffett's portfolio by itself and has been dubbed \"Berkshire's third business\" by the Oracle of Omaha. Apple offers some of the strongest branding in the world, is the clear leader in smartphones in the U.S., and has been pivoting to higher-margin services under the leadership of CEO Tim Cook. Though iPhone sales remain Apple's top product, services becoming a larger percentage of total sales will help remove the revenue lumpiness associated with new product launches.\n2. Bank of America: $43.2 billion\nBank stocks have long been Buffett's favorite place to put Berkshire's money work. Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) is Berkshire's unquestioned largest bank holding, with more than 14% of invested assets. Bank of America has done an excellent job of controlling its noninterest expenses by consolidating branches and emphasizing digital banking. It's also in line to benefit more than any other money-center bank from an eventual rise in interest rates.\nImage source: American Express.\n3. American Express: $24.9 billion\nPayment processor and lender American Express (NYSE:AXP) is Buffett's third-largest and third-longest-held stock. After 28 years of holding AmEx, Berkshire Hathaway's position has grown to almost $25 billion in value. This is a cyclical company that benefits from long periods of economic expansion, as well as its ability to attract affluent clientele. These well-to-do clients are less likely to change their spending habits when economic hiccups arise, which often means less worry about credit delinquencies for AmEx.\n4. Coca-Cola: $22.5 billion\nSpeaking of long-tenured holdings, beverage behemoth Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) is the longest-held stock in Buffett's portfolio (33 years). Coca-Cola operates in all but two countries worldwide (North Korea and Cuba) and has more than 20 brands generating at least $1 billion in annual sales. Thanks to its top-notch marketing team, it's also the best-known consumer goods brand. Coke has holiday tie-ins, has allied itself with well-known brand ambassadors, and is embracing digital advertising and social media as a way to get its message to a younger generation.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n5. Kraft Heinz: $14.1 billion\nThere's little question that Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) is the oddball holding in Buffett's top 10. That's because Buffett admits to Heinz overpaying for Kraft Foods, and the combined company largely underperforming in recent years. This includes a greater than $15 billion goodwill writedown in 2019. While the pandemic has helped boost demand for packaged foods, Kraft Heinz's balance sheet is still bogged down by high debt levels and goodwill. In short, Berkshire Hathaway is sort of stuck with its 325.6 million shares.\n6. Verizon Communications: $9.1 billion\nTelecommunications giant Verizon (NYSE:VZ) is a fairly recent addition to Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, although it's been bought hand over fist in the previous two quarters by Buffett and his team. The lure of Verizon is likely its 4.4% dividend yield, which is arguably one of the safest high-yield payouts on the planet. What's more, Verizon should benefit immensely from the rollout of 5G infrastructure. It's been a decade since the last major upgrade to download speeds, which suggests that a multiyear tech upgrade cycle will lead to higher-margin data consumption.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n7. U.S. Bancorp: $8.7 billion\nNext to BofA, U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:USB) is Buffett's favorite bank stock. It's a company that regularly trades at a premium to its book value -- and for good reason. U.S. Bancorp has seen its users embrace technology, with the percentage of consumer loans completed digitally skyrocketing over the past two years. Being able to consolidate its physical branches, while also avoiding riskier derivative investments that have gotten U.S. money-center banks in trouble, has helped U.S. Bancorp to some of the highest return on assets among big banks.\n8. Moody's: $8.5 billion\nCredit agency and analytics company Moody's (NYSE:MCO) is yet another top-10 holding that's been held for longer than two decades. With an initial cost basis of just over $10, Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on an unrealized gain of better than 3,300% -- and this isn't accounting for dividends. Historically low lending rates have kept Moody's credit rating segment busy, while volatile trading markets are boosting demand for Moody's analytics. It's hard to envision Buffett ever selling this stake.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n9. BYD: $6.2 billion\nBack in 2008, Buffett acquired 225 million shares of China-based electric-vehicle (EV) manufacturer BYD (OTC:BYDDY) for $1.03 a share (it closed this past week at $27.65 a share). In March, BYD sold 16,301 EVs, which is more than higher-profile competitors NIO and XPeng delivered on a combined basis in the same month. With the Society of Automotive Engineers of China forecasting that half of all new vehicles sales in 2035 will be powered by alternative energy, BYD is in pole position to disrupt the largest auto market in the world.\n10. DaVita: $4.4 billion\nRounding out the top 10 is kidney dialysis services company DaVita (NYSE:DVA). Buffett's fascination with the company is likely a numbers play. Over time, an aging U.S. population is going to become more reliant on kidney dialysis services for maintenance purposes. As the clear leader in providing these services, DaVita should see a steady uptick in demand and reimbursement for its services. This patient long-term thesis perfectly embodies the Buffett investing ethos.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":217,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140996425,"gmtCreate":1625622301767,"gmtModify":1633938979989,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's gonna be a very successful EV&nbsp;maker with auto pilot.&nbsp;","listText":"It's gonna be a very successful EV&nbsp;maker with auto pilot.&nbsp;","text":"It's gonna be a very successful EV maker with auto pilot.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/140996425","repostId":"1171645479","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":316,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":116984372,"gmtCreate":1622770012896,"gmtModify":1634098201369,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go play with your coin&nbsp;","listText":"Go play with your coin&nbsp;","text":"Go play with your coin","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/116984372","repostId":"1110094207","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1110094207","pubTimestamp":1622768378,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1110094207?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-04 08:59","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Tesla shares drop on report of steep May sales decline in China","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110094207","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nThe Information, citing a single source familiar with the data, wrote that Tesla's \"mont","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nThe Information, citing a single source familiar with the data, wrote that Tesla's \"monthly net orders in China dropped to about 9,800 in May from more than 18,000 in April.\"\nCNBC has not ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/03/tesla-shares-drop-on-report-of-steep-may-sales-decline-in-china-.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It is also dealing with apublic relations backlashthere following some high-profile vehicle crashes, price changes and quality complaints from Chinese customers.\nJL Warren Capital CEO Junheng Li said in an e-mail to CNBC that even though Tesla hasn’t spoken about potential impacts of its PR crisis in China, she expects they will be material.\n“We see a definitive material impact on Tesla branding, orders and deliveries for future months, although it’s hard to quantify exactly to what extent the declining demand is driven by concerns on Tesla’s safety features, or rising competition especially from Chinese automakers,” she said.\nLi’s equity research firm focuses on Chinese and U.S. companies with significant exposure in China. Her firm estimated, in a note on June 1, that Tesla orders in China declined by around 30% in May compared to April. While that’s not as dire as the 50% drop reported by The Information, Warren noted that “both are disastrous.”\nChina represented last year the second-largest electric vehicle market in the world, according toIEA research.

Square was founded in 2009 by CEO Jack Dorsey and James McKelvey Jr. (a current board member), and went public in November 2015. Dorsey also serves as CEO of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc. (TWTR), which he co-founded in 2006.</p><p>PayPal said in its 2020 10-K filing  with the Securities and Exchange Commission that 13% of its revenue for the year came from customers on eBay's Marketplace platform. It also said that no other revenue source represented more than 10% of the whole.</p><p>PayPal makes it easy to do payments online through its secure digital wallet -- a user simply signs into their PayPal account to make a payment to the merchant from a bank account or credit card. The purchaser doesn't need to provide any financial information to the merchant.</p><p>During 2020, 93% of PayPal's revenue came from transactions, with the rest from \"other value-added services,\" a category that  has declined over the past two full years.</p><p>Square offers what it calls a \"cohesive commerce ecosystem,\" which includes hardware and software, to help merchants process point-of-sale transactions and online transactions. Square also has Cash App, which helps individual users, businesses and organizations transfer money or bitcoin  through the app or by email.</p><p>\"Customers can also use their stored funds to buy and sell bitcoin and equity investments within Cash App,\" according to Square's first-quarter 10-Q report .</p><p>Here's a comparison of quarterly and annual transaction volume for the two companies, with figures in millions:</p><p>PayPal has a much larger payment-processing business  than Square, and recently, its quarterly and annual transaction volumes have grown more rapidly.</p><p>Key metrics</p><p>Size, revenue and profit</p><p>Here is a comparison of the companies' market capitalizations and GAAP net revenue figures for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>GAAP stands for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, under which Square's revenue from its bitcoin holdings has caused the company's total revenue to balloon. Here's Square's more detailed revenue breakdown:</p><p>This illustrates why an investor considering an individual stock has to take a closer look to form their own opinion.</p><p>Here's what Square had to say about its revenue reporting in its first-quarter shareholder letter :</p><p>We deduct bitcoin revenue because our role is to facilitate customers' access to bitcoin. When customers buy bitcoin through Cash App, we only apply a small margin to the market cost of bitcoin, which tends to be volatile and outside our control. Therefore, we believe bitcoin gross profit better reflects the economic benefits as well as our performance from these transactions.</p><p>More from Square's shareholder letter:</p><p>While bitcoin revenue was $3.51 billion in the first quarter of 2021, up approximately 11x year over year, bitcoin gross profit was only $75 million, or approximately 2% of bitcoin revenue.</p><p>So Square's adjusted net revenue for the first quarter was $1.55 billion, increasing 44% from the year-earlier quarter.</p><p>Read:A bitcoin battle of the billionaires ensues as Jack Dorsey faces off with Musk on 'green' merits of world's No. 1 crypto</p><p>Excitement for bitcoin caused the spike in revenue for Square, as its Cash App users participated in the eightfold increase in the cryptocurrency's price in dollars over the 12 months through March 31.</p><p>Here's a comparison of gross profits (earnings before operating expenses) and operating profits (earnings before interest and taxes)  for PayPal and Square for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>PayPal has the larger payment-processing business, by far, while Square is growing its profits more quickly. Despite Square's point that it derives a relatively small portion of its profits from bitcoin revenue, the massive amount of revenue from bitcoin transactions, including customers' trades through Cash App, show the potential of this type of customer activity.</p><p>Returns on common equity and invested capital</p><p>These returns can give some insight into how well a management team deploys capital:</p><p>Return on invested capital is earnings divided by combined debt and equity. It is a measure of capital allocation efficiency and can be useful when comparing companies that are similar. In this case, none of these numbers are bad -- both companies are still growing their businesses in a dynamic environment.</p><p>Earnings estimates to 2025</p><p>Here are the actual earnings-per-share results for 2020 with consensus estimates among analysts polled by FactSet going out to 2025:</p><p>Here are estimated annual percentage  increases in EPS based on the above, plus an estimated five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR):</p><p>That five-year CAGR for Square is bumped up by the expected EPS breakout in 2021. But if we run a four-year EPS CAGR from 2021 through 2025, the results are 21% for PayPal and 46% for Square. Both are impressive, but Square comes out on top if analysts' estimates are close to accurate. This helps explain the much higher forward price-to-earnings ratio for Square that you can see further down.</p><p>Cash flow</p><p>In the modern economy, many investors believe free cash flow -- remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures -- is a critically important measure. One reason for this is that so many <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-time non-cash items can affect EPS. Another is that free cash flow can be deployed through business expansion, acquisitions, share buybacks dividends or other actions that will presumably be good for shareholders.</p><p>Square has had negative free cash flow <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FCF\">$(FCF)$</a> for two of the past four quarters, which isn't surprising, as the company emphasizes growing its business. So it may be most useful to look ahead. FactSet has consensus estimates for FCF per share going out to 2023:</p><p>Again, the analysts expect great things from both companies, especially Square.</p><p>Stock valuation and performance</p><p>Here are forward price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios based on consensus estimates for the next 12 months, along with total return figures:</p><p>Those are high valuations to expected earnings and sales. Then again, that has been par for the course for the most rapidly growing tech-oriented stocks over the past several years.</p><p>Wall Street's opinion</p><p>PayPal has more \"buy\" ratings among Wall Street analysts polled by FactSet, but Square as the more aggressive price target:</p><p>Even though the analysts provide earnings estimates going many years out, their share-price targets are for 12 months, per tradition. This is where you need to think about what \"long term\" means to you as an investor. One year can be considered a short period for some long-term investors, who are looking to compound large gains over three- to five-year periods.</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>PayPal vs. Square -- which is the better stock to own now?</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\">\nPayPal vs. Square -- which is the better stock to own now?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-05-28 22:25</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Square has been a better long-term stock-market performer and it is growing more quickly.

But analysts, on the whole, prefer PayPal.PayPal and Square are well-known to investors as rapidly growing players in the payment-processing space. They don't compete directly in all areas, but there are enough similarities to make a meaningful pairing.Where PayPal and Square fit inPayPal Holdings Inc. (PYPL) was spun off from eBay Inc. $(EBAY)$ in July 2015. Square was founded in 2009 by CEO Jack Dorsey and James McKelvey Jr. (a current board member), and went public in November 2015. Dorsey also serves as CEO of Twitter Inc. (TWTR), which he co-founded in 2006.PayPal said in its 2020 10-K filing  with the Securities and Exchange Commission that 13% of its revenue for the year came from customers on eBay's Marketplace platform. It also said that no other revenue source represented more than 10% of the whole.PayPal makes it easy to do payments online through its secure digital wallet -- a user simply signs into their PayPal account to make a payment to the merchant from a bank account or credit card. The purchaser doesn't need to provide any financial information to the merchant.During 2020, 93% of PayPal's revenue came from transactions, with the rest from \"other value-added services,\" a category that  has declined over the past two full years.Square offers what it calls a \"cohesive commerce ecosystem,\" which includes hardware and software, to help merchants process point-of-sale transactions and online transactions. Square also has Cash App, which helps individual users, businesses and organizations transfer money or bitcoin  through the app or by email.\"Customers can also use their stored funds to buy and sell bitcoin and equity investments within Cash App,\" according to Square's first-quarter 10-Q report .Here's a comparison of quarterly and annual transaction volume for the two companies, with figures in millions:PayPal has a much larger payment-processing business  than Square, and recently, its quarterly and annual transaction volumes have grown more rapidly.Key metricsSize, revenue and profitHere is a comparison of the companies' market capitalizations and GAAP net revenue figures for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:GAAP stands for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, under which Square's revenue from its bitcoin holdings has caused the company's total revenue to balloon. Here's Square's more detailed revenue breakdown:This illustrates why an investor considering an individual stock has to take a closer look to form their own opinion.Here's what Square had to say about its revenue reporting in its first-quarter shareholder letter :We deduct bitcoin revenue because our role is to facilitate customers' access to bitcoin. When customers buy bitcoin through Cash App, we only apply a small margin to the market cost of bitcoin, which tends to be volatile and outside our control. Therefore, we believe bitcoin gross profit better reflects the economic benefits as well as our performance from these transactions.More from Square's shareholder letter:While bitcoin revenue was $3.51 billion in the first quarter of 2021, up approximately 11x year over year, bitcoin gross profit was only $75 million, or approximately 2% of bitcoin revenue.So Square's adjusted net revenue for the first quarter was $1.55 billion, increasing 44% from the year-earlier quarter.Read:A bitcoin battle of the billionaires ensues as Jack Dorsey faces off with Musk on 'green' merits of world's No. 1 cryptoExcitement for bitcoin caused the spike in revenue for Square, as its Cash App users participated in the eightfold increase in the cryptocurrency's price in dollars over the 12 months through March 31.Here's a comparison of gross profits (earnings before operating expenses) and operating profits (earnings before interest and taxes)  for PayPal and Square for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:PayPal has the larger payment-processing business, by far, while Square is growing its profits more quickly. Despite Square's point that it derives a relatively small portion of its profits from bitcoin revenue, the massive amount of revenue from bitcoin transactions, including customers' trades through Cash App, show the potential of this type of customer activity.Returns on common equity and invested capitalThese returns can give some insight into how well a management team deploys capital:Return on invested capital is earnings divided by combined debt and equity. It is a measure of capital allocation efficiency and can be useful when comparing companies that are similar. In this case, none of these numbers are bad -- both companies are still growing their businesses in a dynamic environment.Earnings estimates to 2025Here are the actual earnings-per-share results for 2020 with consensus estimates among analysts polled by FactSet going out to 2025:Here are estimated annual percentage  increases in EPS based on the above, plus an estimated five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR):That five-year CAGR for Square is bumped up by the expected EPS breakout in 2021. But if we run a four-year EPS CAGR from 2021 through 2025, the results are 21% for PayPal and 46% for Square. Both are impressive, but Square comes out on top if analysts' estimates are close to accurate. This helps explain the much higher forward price-to-earnings ratio for Square that you can see further down.Cash flowIn the modern economy, many investors believe free cash flow -- remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures -- is a critically important measure. One reason for this is that so many one-time non-cash items can affect EPS. Another is that free cash flow can be deployed through business expansion, acquisitions, share buybacks dividends or other actions that will presumably be good for shareholders.Square has had negative free cash flow $(FCF)$ for two of the past four quarters, which isn't surprising, as the company emphasizes growing its business. So it may be most useful to look ahead. FactSet has consensus estimates for FCF per share going out to 2023:Again, the analysts expect great things from both companies, especially Square.Stock valuation and performanceHere are forward price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios based on consensus estimates for the next 12 months, along with total return figures:Those are high valuations to expected earnings and sales. Then again, that has been par for the course for the most rapidly growing tech-oriented stocks over the past several years.Wall Street's opinionPayPal has more \"buy\" ratings among Wall Street analysts polled by FactSet, but Square as the more aggressive price target:Even though the analysts provide earnings estimates going many years out, their share-price targets are for 12 months, per tradition. This is where you need to think about what \"long term\" means to you as an investor.

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992. They manage through it and lately they’ve been delivering,” he said.Week ahead calendarMondayEarnings:Tesla,Canadian National Railway, Canon,Check Point Software,Otis Worldwide, Vale,Ameriprise,NXP Semiconductor,Albertsons, Royal Phillips8:30 a.m. Durable goodsTuesdayFOMC begins two day meetingEarnings:Microsoft,Alphabet,Visa,Amgen,Advanced Micro Devices,3M,General Electric,Eli Lilly, Hasbro,United Parcel Service,BP,Novartis,JetBlue,Pultegroup,Archer Daniels Midland,Waste Management,Starbucks,Texas Instrument,Chubb,Mondelez,FireEye,Corning,Raytheon9:00 a.m. S&P/Case-Shiller9:00 a.m. FHFA home prices10:00 a.m. Consumer confidence10:00 a.m. Housing vacanciesWednesdayEarnings:Apple, Boeing,Facebook,Qualcomm,Ford,MGM Resorts,Humana,Norfolk Southern,General Dynamics,Boston Scientific, eBay, Samsung Electronics, GlaxoSmithKline,Yum Brands, SiriusXM, Aflac,Cheesecake Factory,Community Health System,CIT Group,Entergy,CME Group,Hess,Ryder System8:30 a.m. Advance economic indicators2:00 p.m. Fed statement2:30 p.m. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell briefingThursdayEarnings:Amazon,Caterpillar,McDonald’s,Twitter,Bristol-Myers Squibb,Comcast,Merck,Northrop Grumman, Airbus,Kraft Heinz,Intercontinental Exchange,Mastercard,Gilead Sciences,U.S. Steel, Cirrus Logic,Texas Roadhouse, Cabot Oil, PG&E,Royal Dutch Shell,Church & Dwight, Carlyle Group,Southern Co.8:30 a.m. Initial jobless claims8:30 a.m. Real GDP Q110:00 a.m. Pending home salesFridayEarnings:ExxonMobil,Chevron,Colgate-Palmolive,AstraZeneca,Clorox,Barclays, AbbVie, BNP Paribas,Weyerhaeuser,Illinois Tool Works, CBOE Global Markets, Lazard,Newell Brands,Aon,LyondellBasell,Pitney Bowes,Phillips 66,Charter Communications8:30 a.m. Personal income and spending8:30 a.m. Employment cost index Q19:45 a.m. Chicago PMI10:00 a.m. Consumer sentimentSaturdayEarnings:Berkshire Hathaway","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372720837,"gmtCreate":1619245270129,"gmtModify":1634287459568,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls...

Any positive development and execution is likely to send its share price much higher from here over a 12-18 month time frame.</p><p>TWTR was punished 15% after its latest quarterly Q1 2021 earnings in late April, and the share price is reflecting greater skepticism that the company can reach its publicly stated goal of 315 Million Users by 2023.</p><p>But Twitter doesn’t need to reach 315 Million Users for shareholders to experience upside, and that is because the value of a social media company will proportionally go higher with its user base network over time.</p><p>Social media companies are scrutinized for their ability to attract a larger loyal user network, because time spent on the platform and strong engagement metrics give advertisers the potential to get in front of eyeballs and attract potential customers. The larger and deeper a social network, the greater the value of the social media company.</p><p>In fact, just taking a brief stroll back in history, the size of Twitter’s user base was cited as a risk in its IPO prospectus.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e59eda8b90fa6fd9ab6609a1f2587a4\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"770\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: Wall Street Journal</i></p><p>Now that we understand that it is Twitter’s User Base and engagement metrics that matter most to an advertiser, let’s dive into a brief walkthrough of its user base today and how the stock price has reacted to it.</p><p>The last time Twitter traded in the low to mid $50 range was in Q4 2020. At the time, Twitter had a network size of around192 million Monetizable Daily Active Users (mDAU). As of the latest quarter,Twitter (TWTR) now has 199 million mDAUs. Essentially, shareholders are now paying the same price for a larger network than several months ago, one that is more active and more highly engaged than users on Facebook (FB).</p><p>If we study the price relationship of Twitter over time, you can see that large price movements come from Wall Street’s assessment of their user base growth. Any development surrounding the potential to attract more users is most likely the main driver of Twitter’s share price going forward.</p><p>More users equals more opportunity for advertising revenue growth.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afb9eb45374c412b8b74a9d615b28202\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"221\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: Created by Author using data from Twitter’s Quarterly Earnings Reports</i></p><p>Why Twitter’s entrance into Direct Response Ad Products will help advertisers achieve a higher ROI</p><p>Another important metric to follow is what types of return on investment advertisers can expect by advertising on Twitter.</p><p>Up until this point, Twitter’s business model includes generating 85% of its revenue through Advertising and 15% through Data Licensing.</p><p>Because Advertising is the lion-share of Twitter’s current business model, it is important to understand how effectively they can deliver a return on investment for advertisers on their platform. Ultimately, advertisers will spend more ad dollars on a platform if the ROI is strong.</p><p>A breakdown of Twitter's major clients is listed below, and you can see that unlike Facebook (FB) which generatesapproximately 75% of their Ads revenue from Small Business, most advertisers on Twitter tend to be more established companies.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df0fb709d2989ff4151e81e046bf04da\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"827\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>(Source: Statista analysis of Twitter’s Largest Advertisers)</i></p><p>Moreover, Twitter Advertisers typically employ “Brand Marketing” which is a way to educate the public and consumers that they exist and provide a valuable service. Brand Marketing typically delivers a ROI that is longer-term in nature because it’s a much more top-of-funnel way to attract future customers. Most of the Advertising Revenue at Twitter is used to fund Brand Marketing campaigns for companies.</p><p>This is in contrast to Facebook’s core advertising model where most Small Businesses tend to employ “Direct Response” marketing. This type of marketing is the kind of Ad that attempts to collect user/email information in exchange for content that has immediate use in the short-term. Direct response marketing typically creates an “open gap” for a consumer’s current situation and future situation, and creates a desire to call the company to solve the problem.</p><p>From this comparison, we can see that Twitter’s Ads in brand marketing are designed to generate ROI from a longer-term perspective while Facebook Ads with direct response marketing can help small businesses generate ROI from a short-term perspective.</p><p>This difference in advertising along with the sheer size difference between the two social media companies explains why small businesses tend to advertise on Facebook because they see a clearer ROI.</p><p>But that might be changing because Twitter is making progress on their direct response ad products as noted in their latest Q1 2021 Earnings Highlight.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b4c6f000b96c3915b636a445aa68c21\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"888\"></p><p><i>Source: Twitter's Q1 2021 Earnings Report</i></p><p>If Twitter can grow its user base at the current rate of growth and make progress on Direct Response products, it is possible that Small Businesses could start considering shifting ad dollars onto Twitter to diversify their advertising strategies. This is especially true if Facebook cannot help small businesses navigate the new changes of Apple’s iOS 14.5 update.</p><p><b>Twitter’s User Base: A hidden advantage for its profitability</b></p><p>One advantage that Twitter has over other trendy social media platforms such as Snapchat (SNAP) and TikTok is that Twitter’s user base is generally wealthier and are college educated. This has significant implications for advertisers because companies want to generate a return on investment from their advertising efforts.</p><p>Advertising to a network of users that cannot afford the companies’ product or service offerings will result in weak conversions and also soft ROI outcomes. Twitter’s educated and wealthier user base is a treasure trove of users that can likely afford higher-ticket items if they are advertised to and targeted with the right message correctly.</p><p>The one area of concern that I share with enthusiastic Twitter bulls is that the U.S. User Base is not growing as quickly as before. The U.S. User Base for Twitter (or any social media company for that matter) tends to the most profitable demographic. You can see in the chart below that Twitter was able to grow its user base in the U.S. by only 5 million users from 33 Million in Q1 2020 to 38 Million in Q1 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90a16f0ba6727d4d3445dd06d2f956ba\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"221\"></p><p><i>Source: Created by Author using data from Twitter’s Quarterly Earnings Reports</i></p><p>That brings me to my next point - how Twitter will continue to revitalize their user base growth in the U.S. and in International markets.</p><p><b>Twitter entering a new space: New Subscription and Content Creator Model</b></p><p>This is an area that Twitter is starting to explore that could revitalize its user base growth and bring upside to the share price forecast I mentioned earlier.</p><p>It’s no surprise to investors that fast growing social media companies deserve the highest multiples and deserve to trade at a premium relative to their peers.</p><p>The fastest growing trend today in social media is the Influencer / Content Creator economy. To illustrate this, TikTok and YouTube (GOOG) attract a significant number of influencers and creators to create valuable content and build a powerful, loyal community. These platforms are a self-fulfilling cycle of growth becauseYouTube and TikTok attract the best creators, who are able to build large followings and bring that following of users onto the platforms. The end result is thatYouTube and TikTok become a highly sought after destination for companies to utilize their ad spend.</p><p>Twitter is finally starting to get into the creator economy space (as so is Facebook), and I believe that Twitter has a greater chance at succeeding in this initiative than Facebook.</p><p>So while Twitter is relatively late to the game, behindYouTube andTikTok, its current communication platform structure of (1 to many) rather than a friends/family social network on Facebook will allow it to carve out its presence as a space for influencers to connect with their fans.</p><p>Twitter has officially announced that it will be releasing Twitter Spaces, which is a direct competitor to Clubhouse. Twitter spaces will allow creators with over 600 followers to host rooms and chat with their audience in an audio-setting.</p><p>In addition to Twitter Spaces, Twitter will release“Super Follows”, which allow Content Creators to monetize their content by sharing exclusive content with their most loyal fans. This will be similar to how famousYouTubers monetize their content through a platform like Patreon.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bac49e74be7657e0383727dd6b77823\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"426\"></p><p><i>Source of Photo: The Verge</i></p><p>The longer-term implications of this development is that Twitter is likely to attract a younger demographic that has been emboldened by the new creator economy to create content on Twitter and develop a following to later monetize their content. This will recharge Twitter’s user base growth in the U.S and in its international markets and help the company become more valuable to advertisers.</p><p>And of course, another benefit is finally diversifying Twitter’s revenue beyond pure-play advertising and data licensing, carving out opportunities to generate revenue through a recurring subscription model.</p><p>Valuation Considerations: The Bottom Line - How to think of Twitter’s Stock price from a 12-18 month perspective.</p><p>After its Analyst Day Investor Presentation earlier in February 2021, strong investor enthusiasm about Twitter's new product launches and its anticipated impact on user growth prospects pushed Twitter’s valuation to nearly 16x Sales with a share price high of $80. This highlights how sensitive the stock price is to Twitter's user growth.</p><p>In addition, Management stated that they planned to double revenue from $3.7 billion to $7.5 billion in 2023 from a combination of growing advertising market share in both brand marketing and direct response.</p><p>After Twitter's user growth update from its earnings report disappointed the Street,TWTRcorrected back to the $55 range.</p><p>Today, Twitter’s share price fetches 11x times sales, which is a slight premium to its 5-year average of 8x times sales.</p><p>I believe using a Sales (P/S and forward P/S) multiple to value Twitter is the most appropriate valuation metric to understand Twitter’s valuation and its future. That is because Twitter has spent years underinvesting in their research &amp; development and is most recently ramping up their cost infrastructure to hire stronger engineering and product development talent to compete more aggressively in the digital advertising space.</p><p>In the short run, this increase in cost structure will negatively affect profitability, margins, and net income. This makes the traditional earnings multiples (P/E and Forward P/E) more difficult to evaluate the true health of their business. From the way the stock prices for social media companies move, it is much more important to understand and forecast user base growth (growing market share) and revenue growth (product market fit).</p><p>A critical assumption to our price forecast of $80/share is that Twitter can hold the same P/S multiple of 11x using2022 average Wall Street consensus estimated revenue(assuming Management is on track with their revenue projections). If that is the case, Twitter’s shares may start to drift towards ~$80/share in the next 12-18 months.</p><p>From a revenue growth perspective, a price to sales multiple of 11x is fair given Twitter’s plan to double revenue by 2023, which would assume 25% revenue growth this year and for the next 2 years. The market has historically rewarded companies with +20% consistent revenue growth with a price to sales multiple of 10 or more.</p><p><b>Some final thoughts and valuation commentary:</b></p><ul><li><p>I believe that Management’s goal of doubling revenue to 7.5 billion by 2023 from 3.7 billion is ambitious but achievable. Twitter has a small market share of the entire digital advertising market, and up until this point, it has not diversified its product offerings to grow its user base.</p></li><li><p>Twitter has been using their cash balances ($8.8 billion) to make acquisitions to start diversifying their revenue models into subscriptions. New business models that diversify revenue will only further support the P/S premium multiple.</p></li><li><p>At the current valuation of 11x Sales, I do not believe that Twitter is very “undervalued” or that its valuation is inexpensive. But I believe the Street is correct to place a slight premium on Twitter given its current positioning in the social media &amp; digital advertising landscape.</p></li></ul><p>I believe that Twitter is fairly priced and I am gaining confidence that the company can at least maintain at its current rate of user growth.

Any positive development and execution is likely to send its share price much higher from here over a 12-18 month time frame.TWTR was punished 15% after its latest quarterly Q1 2021 earnings in late April, and the share price is reflecting greater skepticism that the company can reach its publicly stated goal of 315 Million Users by 2023.But Twitter doesn’t need to reach 315 Million Users for shareholders to experience upside, and that is because the value of a social media company will proportionally go higher with its user base network over time.Social media companies are scrutinized for their ability to attract a larger loyal user network, because time spent on the platform and strong engagement metrics give advertisers the potential to get in front of eyeballs and attract potential customers. The larger and deeper a social network, the greater the value of the social media company.In fact, just taking a brief stroll back in history, the size of Twitter’s user base was cited as a risk in its IPO prospectus.Source: Wall Street JournalNow that we understand that it is Twitter’s User Base and engagement metrics that matter most to an advertiser, let’s dive into a brief walkthrough of its user base today and how the stock price has reacted to it.The last time Twitter traded in the low to mid $50 range was in Q4 2020. At the time, Twitter had a network size of around192 million Monetizable Daily Active Users (mDAU). As of the latest quarter,Twitter (TWTR) now has 199 million mDAUs. Essentially, shareholders are now paying the same price for a larger network than several months ago, one that is more active and more highly engaged than users on Facebook (FB).If we study the price relationship of Twitter over time, you can see that large price movements come from Wall Street’s assessment of their user base growth. Any development surrounding the potential to attract more users is most likely the main driver of Twitter’s share price going forward.More users equals more opportunity for advertising revenue growth.Source: Created by Author using data from Twitter’s Quarterly Earnings ReportsWhy Twitter’s entrance into Direct Response Ad Products will help advertisers achieve a higher ROIAnother important metric to follow is what types of return on investment advertisers can expect by advertising on Twitter.Up until this point, Twitter’s business model includes generating 85% of its revenue through Advertising and 15% through Data Licensing.Because Advertising is the lion-share of Twitter’s current business model, it is important to understand how effectively they can deliver a return on investment for advertisers on their platform. Ultimately, advertisers will spend more ad dollars on a platform if the ROI is strong.A breakdown of Twitter's major clients is listed below, and you can see that unlike Facebook (FB) which generatesapproximately 75% of their Ads revenue from Small Business, most advertisers on Twitter tend to be more established companies.(Source: Statista analysis of Twitter’s Largest Advertisers)Moreover, Twitter Advertisers typically employ “Brand Marketing” which is a way to educate the public and consumers that they exist and provide a valuable service. Brand Marketing typically delivers a ROI that is longer-term in nature because it’s a much more top-of-funnel way to attract future customers. Most of the Advertising Revenue at Twitter is used to fund Brand Marketing campaigns for companies.This is in contrast to Facebook’s core advertising model where most Small Businesses tend to employ “Direct Response” marketing. This type of marketing is the kind of Ad that attempts to collect user/email information in exchange for content that has immediate use in the short-term. Direct response marketing typically creates an “open gap” for a consumer’s current situation and future situation, and creates a desire to call the company to solve the problem.From this comparison, we can see that Twitter’s Ads in brand marketing are designed to generate ROI from a longer-term perspective while Facebook Ads with direct response marketing can help small businesses generate ROI from a short-term perspective.This difference in advertising along with the sheer size difference between the two social media companies explains why small businesses tend to advertise on Facebook because they see a clearer ROI.But that might be changing because Twitter is making progress on their direct response ad products as noted in their latest Q1 2021 Earnings Highlight.Source: Twitter's Q1 2021 Earnings ReportIf Twitter can grow its user base at the current rate of growth and make progress on Direct Response products, it is possible that Small Businesses could start considering shifting ad dollars onto Twitter to diversify their advertising strategies. This is especially true if Facebook cannot help small businesses navigate the new changes of Apple’s iOS 14.5 update.Twitter’s User Base: A hidden advantage for its profitabilityOne advantage that Twitter has over other trendy social media platforms such as Snapchat (SNAP) and TikTok is that Twitter’s user base is generally wealthier and are college educated. This has significant implications for advertisers because companies want to generate a return on investment from their advertising efforts.Advertising to a network of users that cannot afford the companies’ product or service offerings will result in weak conversions and also soft ROI outcomes. Twitter’s educated and wealthier user base is a treasure trove of users that can likely afford higher-ticket items if they are advertised to and targeted with the right message correctly.The one area of concern that I share with enthusiastic Twitter bulls is that the U.S. User Base is not growing as quickly as before. The U.S. User Base for Twitter (or any social media company for that matter) tends to the most profitable demographic. You can see in the chart below that Twitter was able to grow its user base in the U.S. by only 5 million users from 33 Million in Q1 2020 to 38 Million in Q1 2021.Source: Created by Author using data from Twitter’s Quarterly Earnings ReportsThat brings me to my next point - how Twitter will continue to revitalize their user base growth in the U.S. and in International markets.Twitter entering a new space: New Subscription and Content Creator ModelThis is an area that Twitter is starting to explore that could revitalize its user base growth and bring upside to the share price forecast I mentioned earlier.It’s no surprise to investors that fast growing social media companies deserve the highest multiples and deserve to trade at a premium relative to their peers.The fastest growing trend today in social media is the Influencer / Content Creator economy. To illustrate this, TikTok and YouTube (GOOG) attract a significant number of influencers and creators to create valuable content and build a powerful, loyal community. These platforms are a self-fulfilling cycle of growth becauseYouTube and TikTok attract the best creators, who are able to build large followings and bring that following of users onto the platforms. The end result is thatYouTube and TikTok become a highly sought after destination for companies to utilize their ad spend.Twitter is finally starting to get into the creator economy space (as so is Facebook), and I believe that Twitter has a greater chance at succeeding in this initiative than Facebook.So while Twitter is relatively late to the game, behindYouTube andTikTok, its current communication platform structure of (1 to many) rather than a friends/family social network on Facebook will allow it to carve out its presence as a space for influencers to connect with their fans.Twitter has officially announced that it will be releasing Twitter Spaces, which is a direct competitor to Clubhouse. Twitter spaces will allow creators with over 600 followers to host rooms and chat with their audience in an audio-setting.In addition to Twitter Spaces, Twitter will release“Super Follows”, which allow Content Creators to monetize their content by sharing exclusive content with their most loyal fans. This will be similar to how famousYouTubers monetize their content through a platform like Patreon.Source of Photo: The VergeThe longer-term implications of this development is that Twitter is likely to attract a younger demographic that has been emboldened by the new creator economy to create content on Twitter and develop a following to later monetize their content. This will recharge Twitter’s user base growth in the U.S and in its international markets and help the company become more valuable to advertisers.And of course, another benefit is finally diversifying Twitter’s revenue beyond pure-play advertising and data licensing, carving out opportunities to generate revenue through a recurring subscription model.Valuation Considerations: The Bottom Line - How to think of Twitter’s Stock price from a 12-18 month perspective.After its Analyst Day Investor Presentation earlier in February 2021, strong investor enthusiasm about Twitter's new product launches and its anticipated impact on user growth prospects pushed Twitter’s valuation to nearly 16x Sales with a share price high of $80. This highlights how sensitive the stock price is to Twitter's user growth.In addition, Management stated that they planned to double revenue from $3.7 billion to $7.5 billion in 2023 from a combination of growing advertising market share in both brand marketing and direct response.After Twitter's user growth update from its earnings report disappointed the Street,TWTRcorrected back to the $55 range.Today, Twitter’s share price fetches 11x times sales, which is a slight premium to its 5-year average of 8x times sales.I believe using a Sales (P/S and forward P/S) multiple to value Twitter is the most appropriate valuation metric to understand Twitter’s valuation and its future. That is because Twitter has spent years underinvesting in their research & development and is most recently ramping up their cost infrastructure to hire stronger engineering and product development talent to compete more aggressively in the digital advertising space.In the short run, this increase in cost structure will negatively affect profitability, margins, and net income. This makes the traditional earnings multiples (P/E and Forward P/E) more difficult to evaluate the true health of their business. From the way the stock prices for social media companies move, it is much more important to understand and forecast user base growth (growing market share) and revenue growth (product market fit).A critical assumption to our price forecast of $80/share is that Twitter can hold the same P/S multiple of 11x using2022 average Wall Street consensus estimated revenue(assuming Management is on track with their revenue projections). If that is the case, Twitter’s shares may start to drift towards ~$80/share in the next 12-18 months.From a revenue growth perspective, a price to sales multiple of 11x is fair given Twitter’s plan to double revenue by 2023, which would assume 25% revenue growth this year and for the next 2 years. The market has historically rewarded companies with +20% consistent revenue growth with a price to sales multiple of 10 or more.Some final thoughts and valuation commentary:I believe that Management’s goal of doubling revenue to 7.5 billion by 2023 from 3.7 billion is ambitious but achievable. Twitter has a small market share of the entire digital advertising market, and up until this point, it has not diversified its product offerings to grow its user base.Twitter has been using their cash balances ($8.8 billion) to make acquisitions to start diversifying their revenue models into subscriptions. New business models that diversify revenue will only further support the P/S premium multiple.At the current valuation of 11x Sales, I do not believe that Twitter is very “undervalued” or that its valuation is inexpensive. But I believe the Street is correct to place a slight premium on Twitter given its current positioning in the social media & digital advertising landscape.I believe that Twitter is fairly priced and I am gaining confidence that the company can at least maintain at its current rate of user growth. That observation alone is likely to help the company’s shares appreciate beyond its current trading range of $55.If Twitter can expand and execute decently in its new product rollouts, and develop a stronger direct response product to attract small businesses, Twitter has a strong chance at achieving the revenue growth that Management laid out in its investor presentation earlier this year.Should Twitter achieve 20-25% revenue growth this year and in 2022 with their deeper penetration in the digital advertising space, it’s likely that they will continue to be given a valuation of 11x 2022 estimated revenue or more. This implies that shares may head towards $80 (45% upside) or more in the coming 12-18 months.This is all, of course, assuming that the Fed doesn’t blink at inflation, rapidly raise interest rates, or the U.S. economy gets hit by an unforeseen shock. Twitter’s business model is less diversified compared to Facebook and Google and is likely to be more sensitive to economic shocks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":190805530,"gmtCreate":1620609315420,"gmtModify":1634197769333,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Definitely a good entry price","listText":"Definitely a good entry price","text":"Definitely a good entry price","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/190805530","repostId":"1107149009","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":164,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":107864594,"gmtCreate":1620467089018,"gmtModify":1634198541837,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Are we seeing a good week?","listText":"Are we seeing a good week?","text":"Are we seeing a good week?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/107864594","repostId":"1106882084","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106882084","pubTimestamp":1620451121,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1106882084?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-08 13:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US IPO Week Ahead: Mortgage insurance and cross-border e-commerce lead a 7 IPO week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106882084","media":"renaissancecap...","summary":"Seven IPOs are slated to raise $1.6 billion in the week ahead, led by private mortgage insurance companyEnact Holdings.The largest deal of the week,Enact Holdings plans to raise $497 million at a $3.6 billion market cap.

At least one major CEO has publicly called them a waste of time.PNC(PNC)CEO William Demchak said at the bank's shareholder meeting last month that \"there's not really a compelling case to be made for a stock split.\" One PNC share costs about $190.\"At one time, the conventional thinking was that when a company's share price got to a certain level, the company would split the stock as a way of foreshadowing expectations of growth and in order to make it more affordable for retail shareholders,\" he said.But Demchak added that \"all the stock split really does is increase costs because it doubles the cost of the mechanics that go into servicing every share.\"\"The split might result in some positive short-term public relations that brings about maybe a short-term bump,\" he added. \"But long term, it would appear that the cost is more than it's worth.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":50,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":108880956,"gmtCreate":1620010419875,"gmtModify":1634208546727,"author":{"id":"3562475148249558","authorId":"3562475148249558","name":"Stingers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99c07f753850d085aa23040bff2acf8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3562475148249558","authorIdStr":"3562475148249558"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls","listText":"Like and comment pls","text":"Like and comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/108880956","repostId":"1146143312","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146143312","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1620009785,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1146143312?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-03 10:43","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Can't Get Enough Of These 3 Chinese Alibaba Rivals","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146143312","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Cathie Wood-led Ark Investment Management has recently been heavily buying into three Chinese stocks","content":"<p>Cathie Wood-led Ark Investment Management has recently been heavily buying into three Chinese&nbsp;stocks that are rival to&nbsp;<b>Alibaba Group Holding</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:BABA) in the e-commerce and online groceries space.</p>\n<p>The Jack Ma-led Alibaba has seen its shares slump 21.4% since October last year over troubles with the Chinese government, including the scuttling of the planned initial public offering of fintech subsidiary Ant Group.&nbsp;Alibaba was fined $2.8 billion by China in April as what&nbsp;many perceived&nbsp;to be the end of regulatory troubles for the e-commerce giant.</p>\n<p>Wood's firm continues to hold about&nbsp;636,894 shares in Alibaba, worth around&nbsp;$147.1 million as of Friday, but it has, in recent months, piled up significantly on stocks of rivals, some of which now account for a better part of its holdings than Alibaba.</p>\n<p><b>Pinduoduo Inc</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:PDD): Ark&nbsp;started picking up shares of the Chinese e-commerce giant Pinduoduo in March and has so far picked a total of 1,452,181 shares, worth about $194.5 million, as per Friday's closing.</p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<b>Ark Fintech Innovation ETF</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:ARKF) and the&nbsp;<b>ArkNext Generation Internet ETF</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:ARKW) currently hold the PDD shares.</p>\n<p>The Shanghai-based&nbsp;company is known to be China's largest&nbsp;agriculture-based platform and had last year launched Duo Duo Grocery, a next-day grocery pickup service.&nbsp;Farmers list their fruits and vegetables for direct sale to consumers.</p>\n<p>Shares of Pinduoduo closed 2.59% lower at $133.93 on Friday.</p>\n<p><b>JD.com Inc</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:JD): The investment firm holds about 6,064,238 shares, worth about $469.1 million, of the Chinese e-commerce company via four of its funds.
