In the fiscal first quarter of 2021 (the three months ended May 2, 2021) revenue increased 84% year over year to $5.66 billion, and adjusted earnings per share were up 106%. Ahead of the quarterly update, the semiconductor designer announced a 4-for-1 stock split. While stock splits don't have a material impact on a business's valuation, investors struck an upbeat tone on the news. Shares are now up 175.8% since the start of 2020.</p>\n<p>Stock split aside, there's reason to believe NVIDIA's run isn't over. Chip demand is sky-high right now, and the company is a leader on multiple high-growth technology fronts. Let's look at three reasons why this stock could continue its upward movement in 2021.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50890f6ac7c37200838d6b704d94b843\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. New gaming GPU upgrades are just getting started</h2>\n<p>NVIDIA got its start with high-end video game graphics, and the industry remains the company's largest market. Gaming sales were $2.76 billion in Q1, up a whopping 106% year over year. The surge is driven by the RTX 30 series GPUs released late last year.

Image source: NVIDIA.</span></p>\n<h2>2. Complex data centers need new tech hardware</h2>\n<p>Speaking of data centers, this has quickly emerged as NVIDIA's second-largest vertical. Sales were $2.05 billion in Q1, up a more-than-respectable 79% year over year.</p>\n<p>Data centers operate behind the scenes but are critically important computing units in today's world. They operate the internet, mobile networks, the myriad of software services built and residing in them, and coordinate real-world activity like managing postal services and healthcare information. And in an increasingly sophisticated digital world, better hardware that is able to coordinate all this new data is needed. Lots of companies are adding GPUs to their data center designs as computing accelerators, or outright replacing older CPUs (central processing units) with faster and more energy-efficient GPUs. This is a space traditionally dominated by <b>Intel</b> (NASDAQ:INTC), but NVIDIA is gunning for the chip giant's haymaker. Last year, it unveiled a new data processing unit (DPU) and early in 2021 announced a CPU called Grace designed to pair with its GPUs and built from the ground up for modern data center applications like AI.</p>\n<p>Just like its gaming business, data centers are in the early stages of getting upgraded. CFO Colette Kress said on the earnings call that \"every industry is becoming a technology industry.\" There's no shortage of growth opportunity for NVIDIA, especially in cloud-based services and AI as companies unlock new capabilities and get more efficient in their operations using new chip tech.</p>\n<h2>3. NVIDIA is not just a hardware company anymore</h2>\n<p>NVIDIA of course makes money from the sale of its semiconductors. Licensing revenue from selling chip designs will get a big boost from the pending <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARMH\">ARM Holdings</a> acquisition (which Kress said is still on track to be completed by early 2022), but there's a lot more to NVIDIA's business model these days.</p>\n<p>Cloud-based recurring software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenue is a promising front for this chip company. Its auto industry platform is a prime example. Auto revenue was flat year over year in Q1 at $154 million as NVIDIA continues to exit commoditized vehicle infotainment hardware. But its Drive autonomous vehicle platform spans not just hardware but also software services, helping automakers and autonomous vehicle researchers advance self-driving and safety capabilities.</p>\n<p>Another example is Omniverse, a new collaborative software platform for designers and creators of all sorts. Omniverse has been in open beta but will have a commercial launch this summer for both individual users and enterprises. Kress said there have been over 17,000 downloads of the open beta so far, indicating robust demand for this SaaS-based business line in short order.</p>\n<p>Software sales will be a longer-term development for NVIDIA, but it nevertheless represents an exciting new outlet for this tech giant that pairs well with its leadership in GPUs. Innovation is firing on all cylinders at NVIDIA right now, and shares could continue their upward momentum through the back half of 2021 as growth continues at a rapid pace.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Forget the Stock Split, 3 Reasons NVIDIA Could Continue to Climb in 2021</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\">\nForget the Stock Split, 3 Reasons NVIDIA Could Continue to Climb in 2021\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-31 22:15 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/31/forget-stock-split-reasons-nvidia-could-climb/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) got its year started with a bang.

Last March, again in 2020 as the pandemic took hold, we pared back menu basically to hotdogs and pizza and soda and smoothies, and we eliminated all seating, those takeout only. We began several weeks ago adding back tables and seating and — at a handful of outdoor food courts in a few states,\" Costco CFO Richard Galanti told analysts on an earnings call Thursday evening.Galanti explained Costco is bringing back popular menu items while also reconfiguring seating arrangements for diners.\"Over the past few months, we've also added back a few more food items, including bringing back a new and improved churros, which will be at all U.S. locations by the 4th of July, and adding a high-end soft ice cream to replace our frozen yogurt. And by June 7, we plan to have tables in seating back at most locations, but with more physical separation, tables of 4 instead of 6 and 8 and about half the seating capacity as we had before. Again, these are still subject to doing this in waves and see how it goes and subject to any additional state rules or restrictions in a few cases,\" Galanti said.Free food samples — another long-time favorite of Costco shoppers — will also be returning soon at 170 stores, Galanti confirmed.Even without its beloved food courts back to full operation, Costco crushed analyst estimates for the most recent quarter as shoppers continued stock up for work-for-home life amidst the pandemic. Worldwide customer store traffic rose an impressive 12.9%, and 11.9% in the U.S. alone. Costco's worldwide membership renewal rate remained relatively unchanged compared to last year at 88.4%.Here is how Costco performed versus Wall Street estimates for its fiscal third quarter:Net Sales: $45.3 billion vs. $43.5 billionSame-Store Sales: +20.6% vs. +16%Operating Profits: $1.66 billion vs. $1.41 billionDiluted EPS: $2.75 vs. $2.33Analysts stayed upbeat.\"Fiscal third quarter results reinforce our view that Costco is exiting COVID with a larger and higher quality member base that will support elevated compound returns for years to come,\" said Jefferies analyst Stephanie Wissink in a research note to clients.Wissink reiterated a Buy rating on Costco with a $445 price target.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":412,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":136278963,"gmtCreate":1622024437552,"gmtModify":1634184573053,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/136278963","repostId":"1164246696","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":333,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":131214101,"gmtCreate":1621863007503,"gmtModify":1634186011986,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/131214101","repostId":"2137213077","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2137213077","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1621860540,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2137213077?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-24 20:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Inflation scare?

Among the index's 12 sectors, energy (0.49) and industrials (0.34) are the most positively correlated, while communication services (-0.28), healthcare (-0.24), and consumer discretionary (-0.21) are the most negatively correlated.Correlation measures the strength of a relationship between two variables. A positive correlation of 1.0 would mean they move the same direction in lockstep, while a correlation of -1.0 would mean they move equally in opposite directions. A correlation of 0 means there is no statistical relationship.Belski and company further broke the analysis down to the industry level, as shown in the chart below:Inflation jitters moved front and center earlier this month when the April consumer-price index showed a hotter-than-expected year-over-year jump of 4.2% , sparking a volatile stretch for the stock market and pressuring tech-related shares and other so-called growth stocks.For the month, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite remains down 3.3%, while the S&P 500 is off 0.5% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 1.1%. A number of tech-related highfliers, including Facebook Inc. (FB), Amazon.com Inc. $(AMZN)$, Apple Inc. $(AAPL)$, Netflix Inc. $(NFLX)$, Google parent Alphabet Inc. $(GOOGL)$(GOOGL) and Microsoft Corp. $(MSFT)$, are nursing month-to-date losses.Among S&P 500 sectors, energy is up 5.7% in May, while materials are up 4.7%, financials are 3.7% higher and industrials are up 1.1%.For his part, Belski isn't convinced that the recent surge in inflation -- marked by an April consumer-price index year-over-year jump of 4.2% -- will translate into a prolonged period of elevated inflation and academics, he also doesn't see the Fed risking a policy mistake by refusing to pull forward its timeline on tapering asset purchases and delivering rate hikes.But it isn't just investors talking about inflation, Belski noted. Earnings calls for first-quarter results by S&P 500 companies saw the most mentions of \"inflation\" in more than 10 years , he said, all making it a topic worthy of discussion and research.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":507,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":377306222,"gmtCreate":1619493736766,"gmtModify":1634212297429,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/377306222","repostId":"1134442388","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1134442388","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619493559,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1134442388?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-27 11:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A Stock Market Storm May Be Brewing Over The Horizon","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1134442388","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nThe small cap stocks have been diverging lately from the large caps.\nThe last few times the","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>The small cap stocks have been diverging lately from the large caps.</li>\n <li>The last few times the S&P 500 and Russell have diverged it has led to sharp pullbacks.</li>\n <li>The divergence this time around seems to be bigger than normal.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/097583a7e3f8a7c45f6bb530489bfa14\" tg-width=\"768\" tg-height=\"512\"><span>Photo by YinYang/iStock via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>Since the end of March, stocks have risen sharply despite the usual options expiration sell-off that we have grown to expect,which did not occur.

The Board will take appropriate actions to assure that any changes to the SLR do not erode the overall strength of bank capital requirements.</b>To ease strains in the Treasury market resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and to promote lending to households and businesses, the Board temporarily modified the SLR last year to exclude U.S. Treasury securities and central bank reserves.

Additionally, the Board will shortly seek comment on measures to adjust the SLR. The Board will take appropriate actions to assure that any changes to the SLR do not erode the overall strength of bank capital requirements.To ease strains in the Treasury market resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and to promote lending to households and businesses, the Board temporarily modified the SLR last year to exclude U.S. Treasury securities and central bank reserves. Since that time, the Treasury market has stabilized. However, because of recent growth in the supply of central bank reserves and the issuance of Treasury securities, the Board may need to address the current design and calibration of the SLR over time to prevent strains from developing that could both constrain economic growth and undermine financial stability.To ensure that the SLR—which was established in 2014 as an additional capital requirement—remains effective in an environment of higher reserves, the Board will soon be inviting public comment on several potential SLR modifications.The proposal and comments will contribute to ongoing discussions with the Department of the Treasury and other regulators on future work to ensure the resiliency of the Treasury market.The Fed's soothing wods notwithstanding,having been primed for a favorable outcome, the Fed's disappointing announcement was hardly the news traders were hoping for and stocks tumbled...Bond yields spiked...... while the stock of JPM, which is the most exposed bank to SLR relief (as noted yesterday in \"Facing Up To JP Morgan's Leverage Relief Threats\")....... slumped.In case you've been living under a rock, here's why you should care about the SLR decision: First, for those whomissed our primer on the issue, some background from JPM (ironically the one bank that has the most to lose from the Fed's decision) the bottom line is that without SLR relief,banks may have to delever, raise new capital, halt buybacks, sell preferred stock, turn down deposits and generally push back on reserves (not necessarily all of these, and not in that order) just as the Fed is injecting hundreds of billions of reserves into the market as the Treasury depletes its TGA account.The massive expansion of the Fed’s balance that has occurred implied an equally massive growth in bank reserves held at Federal Reserve banks.

Is there enough momentum to f","content":"<blockquote>\n The Federal Reserve crossed red lines to rescue markets in March 2020. Is there enough momentum to fix the weaknesses the episode exposed?\n</blockquote>\n<p>By the middle of March 2020 a sense of anxiety pervaded the Federal Reserve. The fast-unfolding coronavirus pandemic was rippling through global markets in dangerous ways.</p>\n<p>Trading in Treasurys — the government securities that are considered among the safest assets in the world, and the bedrock of the entire bond market — had become disjointed as panicked investors tried to sell everything they owned to raise cash. Buyers were scarce. The Treasury market had never broken down so badly, even in the depths of the 2008 financial crisis.</p>\n<p>The Fed called an emergency meeting on March 15, a Sunday. Lorie Logan, who oversees the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s asset portfolio, summarized the brewing crisis. She and her colleagues dialed into a conference from the fortresslike New York Fed headquarters, unable to travel to Washington given the meeting’s impromptu nature and the spreading virus. Regional bank presidents assembled across America stared back from the monitor. Washington-based governors were arrayed in a socially distanced ring around the Fed Board’s mahogany table.</p>\n<p>Ms. Logan delivered a blunt assessment: While the Fed had been buying government-backed bonds the week before to soothe the volatile Treasury market, market contacts said it hadn’t been enough. To fix things, the Fed mightneed to buy much more. And fast.</p>\n<p>Fed officials are an argumentative bunch, and they fiercely debated the other issue before them that day, whether to cut interest rates to near-zero.</p>\n<p>But, in a testament to the gravity of the breakdown in the government bond market, there was no dissent about whether the central bank needed to stem what was happening by stepping in as a buyer. That afternoon, the Fedannounced an enormous purchase program, promising to make $500 billion in government bond purchases and to buy $200 billion in mortgage-backed debt.</p>\n<p>It wasn’t the central bank’s first effort to stop the unfolding disaster, nor would it be the last. But it was a clear signal that the 2020 meltdown echoed the 2008 crisis in seriousness and complexity. Where the housing crisis and ensuing crash took years to unfold, the coronavirus panic had struck in weeks.</p>\n<p>As March wore on, each hour incubating a new calamity, policymakers were forced tocross boundaries, break precedentsand make new uses of the U.S. government’s vast powers to save domestic markets, keep cash flowing abroad and prevent a full-blown financial crisis from compounding a public health tragedy.</p>\n<p>The rescue worked, so it is easy to forget the peril America’s investors and businesses faced a year ago. But the systemwide weaknesses that were exposed last March remain, and are now under the microscope of Washington policymakers.</p>\n<p><b>How It Started</b></p>\n<p>Financial markets began to wobble on Feb. 21, 2020, when Italian authorities announced localized lockdowns.</p>\n<p>At first, the sell-off in risky investments was normal — a rational “flight to safety” while the global economic outlook was rapidly darkening. Stocks plummeted, demand for many corporate bonds disappeared, and people poured into super-secure investments, like U.S. Treasury bonds.</p>\n<p>On March 3, as market jitters intensified, the Fedcut interest ratesto about 1 percent — its first emergency move since the 2008 financial crisis. Some analysts chidedthe Fed for overreacting, and others asked an obvious question: What could the Fed realistically do in the face of a public health threat?</p>\n<p>“We do recognize that a rate cut will not reduce the rate of infection, it won’t fix a broken supply chain,” Chair Jerome H. Powell said at a news conference, explaining that the Fed was doing what it could to keep credit cheap and available.</p>\n<p>But the health disaster was quickly metastasizing into a market crisis.</p>\n<p>Lockdowns in Italy deepened during the second week of March, and oil prices plummeted as a price war raged, sending tremors across stock, currency and commodity markets. Then, something weird started to happen: Instead of snapping up Treasury bonds, arguably the world’s safest investment, investors began trying to sell them.</p>\n<p>The yield on 10-year Treasury debt — which usually drops when investors seek safe harbor — started to rise on March 10, suggesting investors didn’t want safe assets. They wanted cold, hard cash, and they were trying to sell anything and everything to get it.</p>\n<p><b>How It Worsened</b></p>\n<p>Religion works through churches. Democracy through congresses and parliaments. Capitalism is an idea made real through a series of relationships between debtors and creditors, risk and reward. And by last March 11, those equations were no longer adding up.</p>\n<p>That was the day the World Health Organizationofficially declaredthe virus outbreak a pandemic, and the morning on which it was becoming clear that a sell-off had spiraled into a panic.</p>\n<p>The Fed began to roll out measure after measure in a bid to soothe conditions, first offeringhuge temporary infusions of cashto banks, thenaccelerating plansto buy Treasury bonds as that market swung out of whack.</p>\n<p>But by Friday, March 13, government bond markets were just one of many problems.</p>\n<p>Investors had been pulling their cash from prime money market mutual funds, where they park it to earn a slightly higher return, for days. But those outflows began to accelerate, prompting the funds themselves to pull back sharply from short-term corporate debt markets as they raced to return money to investors. Banks that serve as market conduits were less willing than usual to buy and hold new securities, even just temporarily. That made it harder to sell everything, be it a company bond or Treasury debt.</p>\n<p>The Fed’s announcement after its March 15 emergency meeting — that it would slash rates and buy bonds in the most critical markets — was an attempt to get things under control.</p>\n<p>But Mr. Powell worried that the fix would fall short as short- and long-term debt of all kinds became hard to sell. He approached Andreas Lehnert, director of the Fed’s financial stability division, in the Washington boardroom after the meeting and asked him to prepare emergency lending programs, which the central bank had used in 2008 to serve as a support system to unraveling markets.</p>\n<p>Mr. Lehnert went straight to a musty office, where he communicated with Fed technicians, economists and lawyers via instant messenger and video chats — in-person meetings were already restricted — and worked late into the night to get the paperwork ready.</p>\n<p>Starting that Tuesday morning, after another day of market carnage, the central bank began to unveil the steady drip of rescue programs Mr. Lehnert and his colleagues had been working on: one to buy upshort-term corporate debtand another to keep funding flowing to key banks. Shortlybefore midnighton Wednesday, March 18, the Fed announced a program to rescue embattled money market funds by offering to effectively take hard-to-sell securities off their hands.</p>\n<p>But by the end of that week, everything was a mess.Foreign central banks and corporations were offloading U.S. debt, partly to raise dollars companies needed to pay interest and other bills; hedge funds werenixing a highly leveraged tradethat had broken down as the market went haywire, dumping Treasurys into the choked market.Corporate bondandcommercial real estate debt marketslooked dicey as companies faced credit rating downgrades and as hotels and malls saw business prospects tank.</p>\n<p>The world’s most powerful central bank was throwing solutions at the markets as rapidly as it could, and it wasn’t enough.</p>\n<p><b>How They Fixed It</b></p>\n<p>The next weekend, March 21 and 22, was a frenzy. Officials dialed into calls from home, completing still-secret program outlines and negotiating with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s team to establish a layer of insurance to protect the efforts against credit losses. After a tormented 48-hour hustle, the Fed sent out a mammoth news release on Monday morning.</p>\n<p>Headlineshit newswiresat 8 a.m., well before American markets opened. The Fed promised tobuy an unlimited amountof Treasury debt and to purchase commercial mortgage-backed securities — efforts to save the most central markets.</p>\n<p>The announcement also pushed the central bank into uncharted territory.

Is there enough momentum to fix the weaknesses the episode exposed?\n\nBy the middle of March 2020 a sense of anxiety pervaded the Federal Reserve. The fast-unfolding coronavirus pandemic was rippling through global markets in dangerous ways.\nTrading in Treasurys — the government securities that are considered among the safest assets in the world, and the bedrock of the entire bond market — had become disjointed as panicked investors tried to sell everything they owned to raise cash. Buyers were scarce. The Treasury market had never broken down so badly, even in the depths of the 2008 financial crisis.\nThe Fed called an emergency meeting on March 15, a Sunday. Lorie Logan, who oversees the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s asset portfolio, summarized the brewing crisis. She and her colleagues dialed into a conference from the fortresslike New York Fed headquarters, unable to travel to Washington given the meeting’s impromptu nature and the spreading virus. Regional bank presidents assembled across America stared back from the monitor. Washington-based governors were arrayed in a socially distanced ring around the Fed Board’s mahogany table.\nMs. Logan delivered a blunt assessment: While the Fed had been buying government-backed bonds the week before to soothe the volatile Treasury market, market contacts said it hadn’t been enough. To fix things, the Fed mightneed to buy much more. And fast.\nFed officials are an argumentative bunch, and they fiercely debated the other issue before them that day, whether to cut interest rates to near-zero.\nBut, in a testament to the gravity of the breakdown in the government bond market, there was no dissent about whether the central bank needed to stem what was happening by stepping in as a buyer. That afternoon, the Fedannounced an enormous purchase program, promising to make $500 billion in government bond purchases and to buy $200 billion in mortgage-backed debt.\nIt wasn’t the central bank’s first effort to stop the unfolding disaster, nor would it be the last. But it was a clear signal that the 2020 meltdown echoed the 2008 crisis in seriousness and complexity. Where the housing crisis and ensuing crash took years to unfold, the coronavirus panic had struck in weeks.\nAs March wore on, each hour incubating a new calamity, policymakers were forced tocross boundaries, break precedentsand make new uses of the U.S. government’s vast powers to save domestic markets, keep cash flowing abroad and prevent a full-blown financial crisis from compounding a public health tragedy.\nThe rescue worked, so it is easy to forget the peril America’s investors and businesses faced a year ago. But the systemwide weaknesses that were exposed last March remain, and are now under the microscope of Washington policymakers.\nHow It Started\nFinancial markets began to wobble on Feb. 21, 2020, when Italian authorities announced localized lockdowns.\nAt first, the sell-off in risky investments was normal — a rational “flight to safety” while the global economic outlook was rapidly darkening. Stocks plummeted, demand for many corporate bonds disappeared, and people poured into super-secure investments, like U.S. Treasury bonds.\nOn March 3, as market jitters intensified, the Fedcut interest ratesto about 1 percent — its first emergency move since the 2008 financial crisis. Some analysts chidedthe Fed for overreacting, and others asked an obvious question: What could the Fed realistically do in the face of a public health threat?\n“We do recognize that a rate cut will not reduce the rate of infection, it won’t fix a broken supply chain,” Chair Jerome H. Powell said at a news conference, explaining that the Fed was doing what it could to keep credit cheap and available.\nBut the health disaster was quickly metastasizing into a market crisis.\nLockdowns in Italy deepened during the second week of March, and oil prices plummeted as a price war raged, sending tremors across stock, currency and commodity markets. Then, something weird started to happen: Instead of snapping up Treasury bonds, arguably the world’s safest investment, investors began trying to sell them.\nThe yield on 10-year Treasury debt — which usually drops when investors seek safe harbor — started to rise on March 10, suggesting investors didn’t want safe assets. They wanted cold, hard cash, and they were trying to sell anything and everything to get it.\nHow It Worsened\nReligion works through churches. Democracy through congresses and parliaments. Capitalism is an idea made real through a series of relationships between debtors and creditors, risk and reward. And by last March 11, those equations were no longer adding up.\nThat was the day the World Health Organizationofficially declaredthe virus outbreak a pandemic, and the morning on which it was becoming clear that a sell-off had spiraled into a panic.\nThe Fed began to roll out measure after measure in a bid to soothe conditions, first offeringhuge temporary infusions of cashto banks, thenaccelerating plansto buy Treasury bonds as that market swung out of whack.\nBut by Friday, March 13, government bond markets were just one of many problems.\nInvestors had been pulling their cash from prime money market mutual funds, where they park it to earn a slightly higher return, for days. But those outflows began to accelerate, prompting the funds themselves to pull back sharply from short-term corporate debt markets as they raced to return money to investors. Banks that serve as market conduits were less willing than usual to buy and hold new securities, even just temporarily. That made it harder to sell everything, be it a company bond or Treasury debt.\nThe Fed’s announcement after its March 15 emergency meeting — that it would slash rates and buy bonds in the most critical markets — was an attempt to get things under control.\nBut Mr. Powell worried that the fix would fall short as short- and long-term debt of all kinds became hard to sell. He approached Andreas Lehnert, director of the Fed’s financial stability division, in the Washington boardroom after the meeting and asked him to prepare emergency lending programs, which the central bank had used in 2008 to serve as a support system to unraveling markets.\nMr. Lehnert went straight to a musty office, where he communicated with Fed technicians, economists and lawyers via instant messenger and video chats — in-person meetings were already restricted — and worked late into the night to get the paperwork ready.\nStarting that Tuesday morning, after another day of market carnage, the central bank began to unveil the steady drip of rescue programs Mr. Lehnert and his colleagues had been working on: one to buy upshort-term corporate debtand another to keep funding flowing to key banks. Shortlybefore midnighton Wednesday, March 18, the Fed announced a program to rescue embattled money market funds by offering to effectively take hard-to-sell securities off their hands.\nBut by the end of that week, everything was a mess.Foreign central banks and corporations were offloading U.S. debt, partly to raise dollars companies needed to pay interest and other bills; hedge funds werenixing a highly leveraged tradethat had broken down as the market went haywire, dumping Treasurys into the choked market.Corporate bondandcommercial real estate debt marketslooked dicey as companies faced credit rating downgrades and as hotels and malls saw business prospects tank.\nThe world’s most powerful central bank was throwing solutions at the markets as rapidly as it could, and it wasn’t enough.\nHow They Fixed It\nThe next weekend, March 21 and 22, was a frenzy. Officials dialed into calls from home, completing still-secret program outlines and negotiating with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s team to establish a layer of insurance to protect the efforts against credit losses. After a tormented 48-hour hustle, the Fed sent out a mammoth news release on Monday morning.\nHeadlineshit newswiresat 8 a.m., well before American markets opened. The Fed promised tobuy an unlimited amountof Treasury debt and to purchase commercial mortgage-backed securities — efforts to save the most central markets.\nThe announcement also pushed the central bank into uncharted territory. The Fed was established in 1913 toserve as a lender of last resortto troubled banks. On March 23, it pledged to funnel help far beyond that financial core. The Fed said it would buy corporate debt and help to get loans to midsize businesses for the first time ever.\nIt finally worked. The dash for cash turned around starting that day.\nThe March 23 efforts took an approach that Mr. Lehnert referred to internally as “covering the waterfront.” Fed economists had discerned which capital marketswere tied to huge numbers of jobsand made sure that every one of them had a Fed support program.\nOn April 9, officials put final pieces of the strategy into play. Backed by a huge pot of insurance money from a rescue package just passed by Congress — lawmakers had handed the Treasury up to$454 billion— they announced that they would expand already-announced efforts and set up another to help funnel credit to states and big cities.\nThe Fed’s 2008 rescue effort had been widely criticized as a bank bailout. The 2020 redux was to rescue everything.\nThe Fed, along with the Treasury, most likely saved the nation from a crippling financial crisis that would have made it harder for businesses to survive, rebound and rehire, intensifying the economic damage the coronavirus went on to inflict. Many of the programs have since ended or are scheduled to do so, and markets are functioning fine.\nBut there’s no guarantee that the calm will prove permanent.\n“The financial system remains vulnerable” to a repeat of last March’s sweeping disaster as “the underlying structures and mechanisms that gave rise to the turmoil are still in place,” the Financial Stability Board, a global oversight body, wrote in a meltdownpost-mortem.\nWhat Comes Next\nThe question policymakers and lawmakers are now grappling with is how to fix those vulnerabilities, which could portend problems for the Treasury market and money market funds if investors get seriously spooked again.\nThe Fed’s rescue ramps up the urgency to safeguard the system. Central bankers set a precedent by saving previously untouched markets, raising the possibility that investors will take risks, assuming the central bank will always step in if things get bad enough.\nThere’s some bipartisan appetite for reform: Trump-era regulators began a review of money markets, and Treasury Secretary Janet L.

There is little popular outrage over the March 2020 meltdown, both because it was set off by a health crisis — not bad banker behavior — and because it was resolved quickly.\nIndustry playersare already mobilizing a lobbying effort, and they may find allies in resisting regulation, including among lawmakers.\n“I would point out that money market funds have been remarkably stable and successful,” Senator Patrick J.

The second: further central bank intervention, perhaps to stabilize disorderly bond markets, could also send real yields back down toward the minus 1% level, the strategists said.\n“Value investors should enjoy this rotation while it lasts, but central bank obligations to finance extravagant fiscal policy mean that there is a natural cap on real yields,” the team wrote.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":31,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":326726639,"gmtCreate":1615717991421,"gmtModify":1703492361186,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/326726639","repostId":"2118630979","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2118630979","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1615562135,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2118630979?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-12 23:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Could Roblox Make You Rich in 2021?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2118630979","media":"Motley Fool ","summary":"The creative gaming platform that is wildly popular among kids has finally hit the public market.","content":"<p>Booming gaming platform for kids <b>Roblox </b>(NYSE:RBLX) hit the public markets this week with a direct listing after dropping its initial interest in conducting a traditional initial public offering (IPO).

The company had filed its S-1 Registration Statement back in November, and it showed phenomenal growth driven in part by the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced many people to stay home and bolstered demand for home entertainment options.\nRoblox is comparable to Minecraft, which Microsoft acquired in 2014, in that it is a broad gaming platform that fosters creativity and caters overwhelmingly to young children. After the exchange set a reference price of $45, which is specific to direct listings and mostly serves as historical context to investors as opposed to the offering price in an IPO, the stock promptly sprinted out of the gate. Could Roblox be a top performer in 2021?\nImage source: Roblox.\nSurging engagement during COVID-19\nRoblox's prospectus now includes financial information for the fourth quarter and full-year 2020. As one might expect, the business continued to enjoy strong growth to close out the year. There are three core operating metrics for investors to watch: daily active users (DAUs), hours engaged, and average bookings per DAU (ABPDAU).\n\n\n\nMetric\n2018\n2019\n2020\n\n\n\n\nDAUs\n12 million\n17.62 million\n32.59 million\n\n\nHours engaged\n9.43 billion\n13.65 billion\n30.6 billion\n\n\nABPDAU\n$41.53\n$39.40\n$57.77\n\n\n\nData source: Prospectus.\nHours engaged dipped slightly in the fourth quarter on a sequential basis, from 8.7 billion to 8.4 billion, but ABPDAU ticked higher to a record $17.30. Roblox notes that monetization tends to be very seasonal, with more users typically buying digital currency (Robux) and virtual goods over the holiday season.\nIn terms of financial results, revenue soared by 82% last year to $923.9 million, while bookings surged 171% to $1.9 billion in 2020. However, Roblox's operating loss roughly doubled to $1.2 billion. The company is investing heavily in research and development as it hires employees and develops new features and functionalities for the platform to drive future growth. Stock-based compensation has also skyrocketed due to aggressive hiring activity -- Roblox hired over 360 full-time employees last year to finish 2020 with 960, with nearly 80% of all workers being engineers and product developers.\nAdditionally, Roblox received another bullish vote of confidence from ARK Invest, led by widely followed institutional investor Cathie Wood. ARK has a unique practice of sending out daily emails that disclose what its actively managed ETFs are trading. In this case, ARK Next Generation Internet (NYSEMKT:ARKW) scooped up approximately 520,000 shares on the first day of trading. The notifications do not detail what prices were paid, but the position represented 0.47% of the portfolio.\nImage source: Roblox.\nHow will Roblox fare in a post-pandemic world?\nLike other companies that became inadvertent beneficiaries of the pandemic, the lingering question that Roblox faces is what happens to engagement as the world slowly returns to normal. Vaccine distribution is ramping up faster than expected and more schools are transitioning back to full-time, in-person learning (54% of DAUs are under the age of 13).\nRoblox does not believe the heightened levels will persist, warning: \"We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"\nThe company adds: \"Further, as a result of global economic conditions, users may reduce their discretionary spending on Robux, may not renew their subscriptions or may otherwise reduce their usage of our platform, which would adversely impact our revenue and financial condition.\"\nRoblox is already commanding a market cap of nearly $40 billion, which translates into a lofty price-to-sales ratio of over 40. Investors are pricing in considerable growth going forward, and the company has the potential to keep delivering upbeat results even after market conditions normalize, as it has established its brand and platform as a top destination for young gamers.\nStill, the valuation seems a bit excessive considering the post-pandemic uncertainties, and it may take time for Roblox to grow into its market cap.

The researchers tell a sordid tale of the Dow’s construction over the decades — a story that should be filed, along with sausage and legislation, in the category of “if you like it, don’t look too closely to how it is made.”</p>\n<p><b>Price-weighted</b></p>\n<p>One of the DJIA’s peculiarities is that it is a price-weighted index, which means that the contribution a stock makes to its performance is a function of how high- or low-priced it is. That makes no theoretical sense.</p>\n<p>Consider the highest-priced stock currently in the DJIA, which is UnitedHealth Group with a recent price of about $350 per share. It has a 7.3% weighting in the index, compared to just a 1.0% weighting for Cisco Systems,the lowest-priced stock in the Dow at close to $48 per share. As a result, Cisco would need to perform more than seven times better than United Health in order to have the same impact on the Dow’s overall return.</p>\n<p><b>Split adjustments</b></p>\n<p>One consequence of this price-weighting is that a stock split will have a big impact on a stock’s weight in the Dow, even though the split is an accounting entry with no real-world significance. Consider Apple,which last summer split its shares four-for-one. As a result of that split, the stock’s weight in the Dow instantly fell by three-quarters. This in fact ended up helping the Dow, since Apple stock has struggled since that split and is now in danger of entering into a bear market.</p>\n<p>Another of the Dow’s head-scratching idiosyncrasies is that in some early years it failed to adjust for stock splits for up to several months at a time. Yet another is that, in a number of those early years, split-adjustment factors were rounded to just one decimal point. According to the authors of this new study, this rounding led to discrepancies of as much as 0.4% on the occasion of each split — equivalent to more than 125 Dow points at today’s index level.</p>\n<p>Another peculiarity: The Dow treated stock dividends differently than stock splits, even though the two are functionally equivalent. According to the research’s authors, the Dow’s component stocks declared 105 stock dividends between them from 1928 through 2019, only 24 of which were reflected in the calculation of the Dow’s value.</p>\n<p><b>Dividends</b></p>\n<p>By the far the most consequential methodological decision that the Dow made over the years has been to omit dividends, Professor Sialm told me in an interview. Nearly half of the Dow’s long-term total return since 1928 has come from dividends.</p>\n<p>You might think that this heavy reliance on dividends is unique to the Dow, which is constructed from the bluest of blue-chip stocks that typically offer higher dividend yields. But what the researchers found for the Dow is also true for the U.S. stock market as a whole. Since 1871, according to data from Yale University’s Robert Shiller, the U.S. stock market’s price-only annualized return has been 4.6%, almost precisely half of the market’s 9.3% annualized return on a total-return basis. (See the chart below.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e99e55881bbacc9fb4c6753120044e2\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"849\"></p>\n<p>Notice what this means for the near-term, given that the S&P 500’sSPX,-0.54%current yield is just 1.5%. Assuming the future is like the past, and depending on the growth rate of dividends, this low yield points to an expected total return for the stock market from current levels of not much more than 3% annualized. That’s less than a percentage point greater than the 10-year breakeven inflation rate.</p>\n<p><b>Could the future be different than the past?</b></p>\n<p>The bulls have a solid theoretical response to this otherwise dismal projection. According to a longstanding theory in finance, tracing to work in the 1960s by Franco Modigliani, who in 1985 would win the Nobel Prize in Economics, companies that pay out less in dividends should grow faster. That’s because they can reinvest in their own growth what they otherwise would have paid out to shareholders. A lower dividend yield therefore should translate into an accelerated earnings growth rate and a higher stock price.</p>\n<p>If so, stocks’ total return should not be affected by a lower dividend yield, since price appreciation would compensate by making a correspondingly greater contribution.</p>\n<p>Crucially, Modigliani advanced his theory when share repurchases did not play a big role in the stock market, and his theory may need to be modified to account for them. If companies take the money they save from paying out fewer dividends and spend it on repurchases instead of investing it in their future growth, then a lower dividend yield may not translate into accelerated subsequent earnings growth.</p>\n<p>Whether or not it does depends crucially on whether companies repurchase shares when they are undervalued. Their track record here over the past two decades is not encouraging.</p>\n<p>This means we can’t automatically assume that today’s low dividend yield will mean that, in coming years, price appreciation will constitute a greater proportion of stocks’ total return. In an email, Robert Arnott, founder of Research Affiliates, pointed out that dividends over the past two decades have represented just as big a proportion of stocks’ total return as in prior decades when dividend yields were much higher. For the 20 years through 2020, Arnott wrote, “the real return on stocks (S&P 500) was 3.8%, of which dividend yield contributed exactly half.”</p>\n<p>To be sure, Sialm added, theory quickly gets complicated when trying to assess the interactions between dividends, price appreciation, and buybacks. There is no guarantee that price appreciation won’t make up for the market’s low current dividend yield. Nevertheless, he continued, it is likely that stock investors face an extended low-growth era.</p>","source":"market_watch","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>Dow 32,000?

Since 1871, according to data from Yale University’s Robert Shiller, the U.S. stock market’s price-only annualized return has been 4.6%, almost precisely half of the market’s 9.3% annualized return on a total-return basis. (See the chart below.)\n\nNotice what this means for the near-term, given that the S&P 500’sSPX,-0.54%current yield is just 1.5%. Assuming the future is like the past, and depending on the growth rate of dividends, this low yield points to an expected total return for the stock market from current levels of not much more than 3% annualized. That’s less than a percentage point greater than the 10-year breakeven inflation rate.\nCould the future be different than the past?\nThe bulls have a solid theoretical response to this otherwise dismal projection. According to a longstanding theory in finance, tracing to work in the 1960s by Franco Modigliani, who in 1985 would win the Nobel Prize in Economics, companies that pay out less in dividends should grow faster. That’s because they can reinvest in their own growth what they otherwise would have paid out to shareholders. A lower dividend yield therefore should translate into an accelerated earnings growth rate and a higher stock price.\nIf so, stocks’ total return should not be affected by a lower dividend yield, since price appreciation would compensate by making a correspondingly greater contribution.\nCrucially, Modigliani advanced his theory when share repurchases did not play a big role in the stock market, and his theory may need to be modified to account for them. If companies take the money they save from paying out fewer dividends and spend it on repurchases instead of investing it in their future growth, then a lower dividend yield may not translate into accelerated subsequent earnings growth.\nWhether or not it does depends crucially on whether companies repurchase shares when they are undervalued. Their track record here over the past two decades is not encouraging.\nThis means we can’t automatically assume that today’s low dividend yield will mean that, in coming years, price appreciation will constitute a greater proportion of stocks’ total return. In an email, Robert Arnott, founder of Research Affiliates, pointed out that dividends over the past two decades have represented just as big a proportion of stocks’ total return as in prior decades when dividend yields were much higher. For the 20 years through 2020, Arnott wrote, “the real return on stocks (S&P 500) was 3.8%, of which dividend yield contributed exactly half.”\nTo be sure, Sialm added, theory quickly gets complicated when trying to assess the interactions between dividends, price appreciation, and buybacks. There is no guarantee that price appreciation won’t make up for the market’s low current dividend yield. Nevertheless, he continued, it is likely that stock investors face an extended low-growth era.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":151,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":329738728,"gmtCreate":1615279209364,"gmtModify":1703486641817,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/329738728","repostId":"1183729076","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183729076","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1615278840,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1183729076?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-09 16:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Airbnb, Lyft and Other Stocks Set to Benefit From a Consumer Spending Boom","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183729076","media":"Barrons","summary":"The strongest consumer stock backdrop in decades may be around the corner and there are plenty of st","content":"<p>The strongest consumer stock backdrop in decades may be around the corner and there are plenty of stocks well positioned to benefit, according to Jefferies analysts.</p>\n<p>A surge in personal income, alongside the reopening of the economy will “unleash substantial pent-up demand” in service sector consumption, said chief economist Aneta Markowska in a note on Sunday.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell has been less explicit.Blokland thinks that if the yield on the 10-year US Treasury note marches significantly higher this week, Powell may have no choice but to strongly assert that the Fed will act as necessary to ensure the economic recovery isn't affected by market turmoil.\"If we have another week like last week, [he has] to do something,\" Blokland said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":270,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":350410890,"gmtCreate":1616250184310,"gmtModify":1634526581692,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350410890","repostId":"1117450855","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1117450855","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616166767,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1117450855?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-19 23:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Powell says Fed will keep supporting economy ‘for as long as it takes’","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1117450855","media":"marketwatch","summary":"Outlook is brightening, but recovery ‘far from complete,’ Fed chairman says in WSJ op-ed.Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Friday said that while the U.S. economic outlook is “brightening,” the recovery is “far from complete.”In an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal,Powell recounted the moment last February when he realized that the coronavirus pandemic would sweep across the country.“The danger to the U.S. economy was grave.

Morgan Says Now Is the Time to Bet on the S&P 500","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129467108","media":"Barrons","summary":"Don’t worry. Be greedy.Even though investor fears are rising, and the stock market is getting bullie","content":"<p>Don’t worry. Be greedy.</p><p>Even though investor fears are rising, and the stock market is getting bullied by rising bond yields,J.P. Morganstrategists have told their clients that now is the time to embrace stocks.</p><p>TheS&P 500may be waffling around 3875, but the bank is standing by its 2021 year-end price target of 4400 on a range of 4200 to 4600. Its numbers aren’t merely some derivative of the stock market’s expected earnings. Instead, they reflect America’s economic reawakening after the Covid-19 pandemic.</p><p>Shawn Quigg, a J.P. Morgan derivatives strategist, recently told clients that there is little to stand in the way of the market’s achievement of “such gains sooner than later, particularly considering the numerous catalysts ahead, their impact on volatility, and the implications that will have on investor positioning.”</p><p>As President Joe Biden’s administration champions a $1.9 trillion stimulus program, and Covid-19 infections and hospitalizations decline, Quigg anticipates stocks surging. His view is somewhat at odds with recent trading. Stocks have declined as the 10-year Treasury note yield has increased to about 1.38%, a move that is fanning inflation fearsand worries about stock slumps.</p><p>Quigg likes taking advantage of the fear and the pending stimulus program, which Biden has begun to defend against concerns that it is too large. In various interviews, the president has challenged critics to tell him what to cut at a time when so much of the nation is suffering. The Biden administration is now warning that the greatest risk isn’t a large stimulus package, but one that is too small and thus doesn’t meaningfully stimulate economic growth.</p><p>To position for the stock market to surge higher, Quigg advised clients to consider selling one of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF‘s (ticker: SPY) May $353 put options and buying 15 May $450 call options. When the ETF was at $392.39, the leveraged risk-reversal strategy—that is,selling one put and buying many more calls with a higher strike price but the same expiration—could be done for no cost. In other words, the money received for selling the put was enough to buy 15 bullish calls.</p><p>The trade expresses high conviction that the ETF—which was recently trading around $387—will reach $450 by May 21, when May options expire. At $460, the call is worth $10.</p><p>Should the ETF decline, say, because current fears push the market below the $353 strike price, investors would be obligated to buy it at the lower price, or to cover or adjust the puts.</p><p>Quigg’s trade idea has a lot to admire.</p><p>For one, the trade carried zero cost when it was recommended late last week. Yes, prices have moved since the Feb. 18 note was published, but investors can recast strike prices to create similar pricing. The markets change, and that’s why there are so many different strike prices that are listed.</p><p>Moreover, if J.P.

Be greedy.Even though investor fears are rising, and the stock market is getting bullied by rising bond yields,J.P. Morganstrategists have told their clients that now is the time to embrace stocks.TheS&P 500may be waffling around 3875, but the bank is standing by its 2021 year-end price target of 4400 on a range of 4200 to 4600. Its numbers aren’t merely some derivative of the stock market’s expected earnings. Instead, they reflect America’s economic reawakening after the Covid-19 pandemic.Shawn Quigg, a J.P. Morgan derivatives strategist, recently told clients that there is little to stand in the way of the market’s achievement of “such gains sooner than later, particularly considering the numerous catalysts ahead, their impact on volatility, and the implications that will have on investor positioning.”As President Joe Biden’s administration champions a $1.9 trillion stimulus program, and Covid-19 infections and hospitalizations decline, Quigg anticipates stocks surging. His view is somewhat at odds with recent trading. Stocks have declined as the 10-year Treasury note yield has increased to about 1.38%, a move that is fanning inflation fearsand worries about stock slumps.Quigg likes taking advantage of the fear and the pending stimulus program, which Biden has begun to defend against concerns that it is too large. In various interviews, the president has challenged critics to tell him what to cut at a time when so much of the nation is suffering. The Biden administration is now warning that the greatest risk isn’t a large stimulus package, but one that is too small and thus doesn’t meaningfully stimulate economic growth.To position for the stock market to surge higher, Quigg advised clients to consider selling one of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF‘s (ticker: SPY) May $353 put options and buying 15 May $450 call options. When the ETF was at $392.39, the leveraged risk-reversal strategy—that is,selling one put and buying many more calls with a higher strike price but the same expiration—could be done for no cost. In other words, the money received for selling the put was enough to buy 15 bullish calls.The trade expresses high conviction that the ETF—which was recently trading around $387—will reach $450 by May 21, when May options expire. At $460, the call is worth $10.Should the ETF decline, say, because current fears push the market below the $353 strike price, investors would be obligated to buy it at the lower price, or to cover or adjust the puts.Quigg’s trade idea has a lot to admire.For one, the trade carried zero cost when it was recommended late last week. Yes, prices have moved since the Feb. 18 note was published, but investors can recast strike prices to create similar pricing. The markets change, and that’s why there are so many different strike prices that are listed.Moreover, if J.P. Morgan’s base view of the economic reawakening proves true, owning a bundle of upside calls that cost nothing could be quite lucrative. Should the market succumb to the current fears that are weakening prices, owning S&P 500 stocks at lower prices isn’t terrible, either.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":83,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":323743359,"gmtCreate":1615380721571,"gmtModify":1703488145814,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/323743359","repostId":"1186280918","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":323982487,"gmtCreate":1615299181049,"gmtModify":1703486955759,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/323982487","repostId":"1158287133","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158287133","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1615298882,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1158287133?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-09 22:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow 32,000?

The Dow’s gain over the subsequent 15 months would propel its “true” value currently to more than 1.2 million.</p>\n<p>The study’s authors are John Shoven and Clemens Sialm, finance professors at Stanford University and the University of Texas at Austin, respectively, along with Jacky Lin and Genevieve Selden. The researchers tell a sordid tale of the Dow’s construction over the decades — a story that should be filed, along with sausage and legislation, in the category of “if you like it, don’t look too closely to how it is made.”</p>\n<p><b>Price-weighted</b></p>\n<p>One of the DJIA’s peculiarities is that it is a price-weighted index, which means that the contribution a stock makes to its performance is a function of how high- or low-priced it is. That makes no theoretical sense.</p>\n<p>Consider the highest-priced stock currently in the DJIA, which is UnitedHealth Group with a recent price of about $350 per share. It has a 7.3% weighting in the index, compared to just a 1.0% weighting for Cisco Systems,the lowest-priced stock in the Dow at close to $48 per share. As a result, Cisco would need to perform more than seven times better than United Health in order to have the same impact on the Dow’s overall return.</p>\n<p><b>Split adjustments</b></p>\n<p>One consequence of this price-weighting is that a stock split will have a big impact on a stock’s weight in the Dow, even though the split is an accounting entry with no real-world significance. Consider Apple,which last summer split its shares four-for-one. As a result of that split, the stock’s weight in the Dow instantly fell by three-quarters. This in fact ended up helping the Dow, since Apple stock has struggled since that split and is now in danger of entering into a bear market.</p>\n<p>Another of the Dow’s head-scratching idiosyncrasies is that in some early years it failed to adjust for stock splits for up to several months at a time. Yet another is that, in a number of those early years, split-adjustment factors were rounded to just one decimal point. According to the authors of this new study, this rounding led to discrepancies of as much as 0.4% on the occasion of each split — equivalent to more than 125 Dow points at today’s index level.</p>\n<p>Another peculiarity: The Dow treated stock dividends differently than stock splits, even though the two are functionally equivalent. According to the research’s authors, the Dow’s component stocks declared 105 stock dividends between them from 1928 through 2019, only 24 of which were reflected in the calculation of the Dow’s value.</p>\n<p><b>Dividends</b></p>\n<p>By the far the most consequential methodological decision that the Dow made over the years has been to omit dividends, Professor Sialm told me in an interview. Nearly half of the Dow’s long-term total return since 1928 has come from dividends.</p>\n<p>You might think that this heavy reliance on dividends is unique to the Dow, which is constructed from the bluest of blue-chip stocks that typically offer higher dividend yields. But what the researchers found for the Dow is also true for the U.S. stock market as a whole. Since 1871, according to data from Yale University’s Robert Shiller, the U.S. stock market’s price-only annualized return has been 4.6%, almost precisely half of the market’s 9.3% annualized return on a total-return basis. (See the chart below.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e99e55881bbacc9fb4c6753120044e2\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"849\"></p>\n<p>Notice what this means for the near-term, given that the S&P 500’sSPX,-0.54%current yield is just 1.5%. Assuming the future is like the past, and depending on the growth rate of dividends, this low yield points to an expected total return for the stock market from current levels of not much more than 3% annualized. That’s less than a percentage point greater than the 10-year breakeven inflation rate.</p>\n<p><b>Could the future be different than the past?</b></p>\n<p>The bulls have a solid theoretical response to this otherwise dismal projection. According to a longstanding theory in finance, tracing to work in the 1960s by Franco Modigliani, who in 1985 would win the Nobel Prize in Economics, companies that pay out less in dividends should grow faster. That’s because they can reinvest in their own growth what they otherwise would have paid out to shareholders. A lower dividend yield therefore should translate into an accelerated earnings growth rate and a higher stock price.</p>\n<p>If so, stocks’ total return should not be affected by a lower dividend yield, since price appreciation would compensate by making a correspondingly greater contribution.</p>\n<p>Crucially, Modigliani advanced his theory when share repurchases did not play a big role in the stock market, and his theory may need to be modified to account for them. If companies take the money they save from paying out fewer dividends and spend it on repurchases instead of investing it in their future growth, then a lower dividend yield may not translate into accelerated subsequent earnings growth.</p>\n<p>Whether or not it does depends crucially on whether companies repurchase shares when they are undervalued. Their track record here over the past two decades is not encouraging.</p>\n<p>This means we can’t automatically assume that today’s low dividend yield will mean that, in coming years, price appreciation will constitute a greater proportion of stocks’ total return. In an email, Robert Arnott, founder of Research Affiliates, pointed out that dividends over the past two decades have represented just as big a proportion of stocks’ total return as in prior decades when dividend yields were much higher. For the 20 years through 2020, Arnott wrote, “the real return on stocks (S&P 500) was 3.8%, of which dividend yield contributed exactly half.”</p>\n<p>To be sure, Sialm added, theory quickly gets complicated when trying to assess the interactions between dividends, price appreciation, and buybacks. There is no guarantee that price appreciation won’t make up for the market’s low current dividend yield. Nevertheless, he continued, it is likely that stock investors face an extended low-growth era.</p>","source":"market_watch","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>Dow 32,000?

Their track record here over the past two decades is not encouraging.\nThis means we can’t automatically assume that today’s low dividend yield will mean that, in coming years, price appreciation will constitute a greater proportion of stocks’ total return. In an email, Robert Arnott, founder of Research Affiliates, pointed out that dividends over the past two decades have represented just as big a proportion of stocks’ total return as in prior decades when dividend yields were much higher. For the 20 years through 2020, Arnott wrote, “the real return on stocks (S&P 500) was 3.8%, of which dividend yield contributed exactly half.”\nTo be sure, Sialm added, theory quickly gets complicated when trying to assess the interactions between dividends, price appreciation, and buybacks. There is no guarantee that price appreciation won’t make up for the market’s low current dividend yield. Nevertheless, he continued, it is likely that stock investors face an extended low-growth era.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":151,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320165902,"gmtCreate":1615044539506,"gmtModify":1703484419453,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/320165902","repostId":"1169596583","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1169596583","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据,旨在帮助投资者理解世界,做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1614958557,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1169596583?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-05 23:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir plunged more than 13%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1169596583","media":"老虎资讯综合","summary":"(March 5) Palantir plunged more than 13%.","content":"<p>(March 5) Palantir plunged more than 13%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13f756ec57cca85c31b6be070941d7c1\" tg-width=\"1059\" tg-height=\"499\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

That afternoon, the Fedannounced an enormous purchase program, promising to make $500 billion in government bond purchases and to buy $200 billion in mortgage-backed debt.</p>\n<p>It wasn’t the central bank’s first effort to stop the unfolding disaster, nor would it be the last. But it was a clear signal that the 2020 meltdown echoed the 2008 crisis in seriousness and complexity.

Some analysts chidedthe Fed for overreacting, and others asked an obvious question: What could the Fed realistically do in the face of a public health threat?</p>\n<p>“We do recognize that a rate cut will not reduce the rate of infection, it won’t fix a broken supply chain,” Chair Jerome H. Powell said at a news conference, explaining that the Fed was doing what it could to keep credit cheap and available.</p>\n<p>But the health disaster was quickly metastasizing into a market crisis.</p>\n<p>Lockdowns in Italy deepened during the second week of March, and oil prices plummeted as a price war raged, sending tremors across stock, currency and commodity markets. Then, something weird started to happen: Instead of snapping up Treasury bonds, arguably the world’s safest investment, investors began trying to sell them.</p>\n<p>The yield on 10-year Treasury debt — which usually drops when investors seek safe harbor — started to rise on March 10, suggesting investors didn’t want safe assets. They wanted cold, hard cash, and they were trying to sell anything and everything to get it.</p>\n<p><b>How It Worsened</b></p>\n<p>Religion works through churches. Democracy through congresses and parliaments. Capitalism is an idea made real through a series of relationships between debtors and creditors, risk and reward. And by last March 11, those equations were no longer adding up.</p>\n<p>That was the day the World Health Organizationofficially declaredthe virus outbreak a pandemic, and the morning on which it was becoming clear that a sell-off had spiraled into a panic.</p>\n<p>The Fed began to roll out measure after measure in a bid to soothe conditions, first offeringhuge temporary infusions of cashto banks, thenaccelerating plansto buy Treasury bonds as that market swung out of whack.</p>\n<p>But by Friday, March 13, government bond markets were just one of many problems.</p>\n<p>Investors had been pulling their cash from prime money market mutual funds, where they park it to earn a slightly higher return, for days. But those outflows began to accelerate, prompting the funds themselves to pull back sharply from short-term corporate debt markets as they raced to return money to investors. Banks that serve as market conduits were less willing than usual to buy and hold new securities, even just temporarily. That made it harder to sell everything, be it a company bond or Treasury debt.</p>\n<p>The Fed’s announcement after its March 15 emergency meeting — that it would slash rates and buy bonds in the most critical markets — was an attempt to get things under control.</p>\n<p>But Mr. Powell worried that the fix would fall short as short- and long-term debt of all kinds became hard to sell. He approached Andreas Lehnert, director of the Fed’s financial stability division, in the Washington boardroom after the meeting and asked him to prepare emergency lending programs, which the central bank had used in 2008 to serve as a support system to unraveling markets.</p>\n<p>Mr. Lehnert went straight to a musty office, where he communicated with Fed technicians, economists and lawyers via instant messenger and video chats — in-person meetings were already restricted — and worked late into the night to get the paperwork ready.</p>\n<p>Starting that Tuesday morning, after another day of market carnage, the central bank began to unveil the steady drip of rescue programs Mr. Lehnert and his colleagues had been working on: one to buy upshort-term corporate debtand another to keep funding flowing to key banks.

She projected personal consumption expenditure (PCE)—a measure of consumer spending—to grow 7% this year and 4.1% in 2022. That assumes average PCE growth of more than 4% for eight consecutive quarters for the time since the 1990s.Stimulus and pent-up demandwould indicate strong spending at the high and low ends, she added.</p>\n<p>Jefferies analysts covering a number of sectors used Markowska’s estimates to pick stocks most exposed to such a surge in consumption.</p>\n<p>Equity analyst Brent Thill said ride-sharing companyLyftwas one of his top reopening plays for 2021, as people return to bars, restaurants and other hospitality venues. He noted that Lyft shifted focus to its cost structure during the Covid-19 pandemic, which should “produce outsized leverage” as revenues rebound. He projected a return to pre-pandemic revenue levels by the fourth quarter, rating the stock a buy with a target price of $75 and an upside target of $85.</p>\n<p>Thill also said online travel names would be among the biggest beneficiaries of the accelerating vaccine rollout and a subsequent travel rebound, pickingAirbnband Booking. He gave Airbnb a buy rating, with a target price of $210 and upside target price of $250, while Booking had a hold rating with an upside target of $2,700.</p>\n<p>When it comes to airlines, one of the hardest-hit sectors throughout the pandemic, equity analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu saidSouthwest Airlineswas best placed to benefit from pent-up demand in the second half of the year. She said domestic travel restrictions were likely to be lifted before international restrictions, giving the airline an advantage, adding that it was set to “aggressively take market share” from its peers.

She projected personal consumption expenditure (PCE)—a measure of consumer spending—to grow 7% this year and 4.1% in 2022. That assumes average PCE growth of more than 4% for eight consecutive quarters for the time since the 1990s.Stimulus and pent-up demandwould indicate strong spending at the high and low ends, she added.\nJefferies analysts covering a number of sectors used Markowska’s estimates to pick stocks most exposed to such a surge in consumption.\nEquity analyst Brent Thill said ride-sharing companyLyftwas one of his top reopening plays for 2021, as people return to bars, restaurants and other hospitality venues. He noted that Lyft shifted focus to its cost structure during the Covid-19 pandemic, which should “produce outsized leverage” as revenues rebound. He projected a return to pre-pandemic revenue levels by the fourth quarter, rating the stock a buy with a target price of $75 and an upside target of $85.\nThill also said online travel names would be among the biggest beneficiaries of the accelerating vaccine rollout and a subsequent travel rebound, pickingAirbnband Booking. He gave Airbnb a buy rating, with a target price of $210 and upside target price of $250, while Booking had a hold rating with an upside target of $2,700.\nWhen it comes to airlines, one of the hardest-hit sectors throughout the pandemic, equity analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu saidSouthwest Airlineswas best placed to benefit from pent-up demand in the second half of the year. She said domestic travel restrictions were likely to be lifted before international restrictions, giving the airline an advantage, adding that it was set to “aggressively take market share” from its peers. She rated the stock a buy with an upside target of $80, compared with Friday’s closing price of $56.92.\nIn the restaurants and food service sector, analysts Andy Barish and Alexander Slagle said the full-service segment was likely to benefit the most from the recovery, with pent-up demand for food outside of the home emerging as a powerful driver. They highlightedOutback SteakhouseownerBloomin’ Brandsand Chili’s ownerBrinkeras two buy-rated stocks to watch.\nIn the food sector itself, analyst Rob Dickerson said Beyond Meat,J&J Snack Foods and Lamb Westonhad the most potential upside due to its exposure to the food service channel, but he rated all three stocks ‘hold’.\nThe report also selects a host of retail names, including home improvement storesLowe’sandHome Depot,and major retailers such asKohl’sandWalmartas foot traffic picks up and spending increases.\nValue-orientated names in the specialty retail industry, such asDollar General,BurlingtonandFive Belowwere also mentioned, whileCaesars EntertainmentandSix Flagswere preferred in the gaming and leisure sector.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":367797420,"gmtCreate":1614965770060,"gmtModify":1703483794713,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/367797420","repostId":"2117639609","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2117639609","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1614957600,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2117639609?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-05 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What's the Outlook for Intuitive Surgical?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2117639609","media":"Jason Hawthorne","summary":"Competition is heating up, but the company's market leadership remains unchallenged.","content":"<p>After being relegated to science fiction for most of the 20th century, robots have been more visible over the past two decades.

In the fiscal first quarter of 2021 (the three months ended May 2, 2021) revenue increased 84% year over year to $5.66 billion, and adjusted earnings per share were up 106%. Ahead of the quarterly update, the semiconductor designer announced a 4-for-1 stock split. While stock splits don't have a material impact on a business's valuation, investors struck an upbeat tone on the news. Shares are now up 175.8% since the start of 2020.</p>\n<p>Stock split aside, there's reason to believe NVIDIA's run isn't over. Chip demand is sky-high right now, and the company is a leader on multiple high-growth technology fronts. Let's look at three reasons why this stock could continue its upward movement in 2021.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50890f6ac7c37200838d6b704d94b843\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. New gaming GPU upgrades are just getting started</h2>\n<p>NVIDIA got its start with high-end video game graphics, and the industry remains the company's largest market. Gaming sales were $2.76 billion in Q1, up a whopping 106% year over year. The surge is driven by the RTX 30 series GPUs released late last year. These advanced chips come standard with ray tracing and AI-enhanced graphics capabilities to help players get the most out of their gaming experience.</p>\n<p>With such a boom in video game sales, it might seem like this leading segment at NVIDIA would be headed for a slowdown. That time hasn't arrived yet. The hardware upgrade cycle is really just getting started. NVIDIA just recently announced the first batch of laptops with RTX GPUs are coming out this summer, which makes its new chips available to tens of millions more gamers worldwide. And to better address video game market demand, NVIDIA has built restrictions in the RTX 30 series to prevent these graphics processors from going to cryptocurrency mining outfits (the new CMP chips custom designed for the crypto market are out and are expected to haul in $400 million in sales next quarter).</p>\n<p>NVIDIA said it expects revenue to be about $6.3 billion in the second quarter, up 63% from a year ago at the midpoint. While cryptocurrency chips are contributing to this torrid pace of growth, the gaming and data center markets represent the lion's share of expansion.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9378507973d9125501a4345d3317b24\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"367\"><span>New laptops featuring NVIDIA RTX 30 chips are coming soon. Image source: NVIDIA.</span></p>\n<h2>2. Complex data centers need new tech hardware</h2>\n<p>Speaking of data centers, this has quickly emerged as NVIDIA's second-largest vertical. Sales were $2.05 billion in Q1, up a more-than-respectable 79% year over year.</p>\n<p>Data centers operate behind the scenes but are critically important computing units in today's world.

In the fiscal first quarter of 2021 (the three months ended May 2, 2021) revenue increased 84% year over year to $5.66 billion, and adjusted earnings per share were up 106%. Ahead of the quarterly update, the semiconductor designer announced a 4-for-1 stock split. While stock splits don't have a material impact on a business's valuation, investors struck an upbeat tone on the news. Shares are now up 175.8% since the start of 2020.\nStock split aside, there's reason to believe NVIDIA's run isn't over. Chip demand is sky-high right now, and the company is a leader on multiple high-growth technology fronts. Let's look at three reasons why this stock could continue its upward movement in 2021.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. New gaming GPU upgrades are just getting started\nNVIDIA got its start with high-end video game graphics, and the industry remains the company's largest market. Gaming sales were $2.76 billion in Q1, up a whopping 106% year over year. The surge is driven by the RTX 30 series GPUs released late last year. These advanced chips come standard with ray tracing and AI-enhanced graphics capabilities to help players get the most out of their gaming experience.\nWith such a boom in video game sales, it might seem like this leading segment at NVIDIA would be headed for a slowdown. That time hasn't arrived yet. The hardware upgrade cycle is really just getting started. NVIDIA just recently announced the first batch of laptops with RTX GPUs are coming out this summer, which makes its new chips available to tens of millions more gamers worldwide. And to better address video game market demand, NVIDIA has built restrictions in the RTX 30 series to prevent these graphics processors from going to cryptocurrency mining outfits (the new CMP chips custom designed for the crypto market are out and are expected to haul in $400 million in sales next quarter).\nNVIDIA said it expects revenue to be about $6.3 billion in the second quarter, up 63% from a year ago at the midpoint. While cryptocurrency chips are contributing to this torrid pace of growth, the gaming and data center markets represent the lion's share of expansion.\nNew laptops featuring NVIDIA RTX 30 chips are coming soon. Image source: NVIDIA.\n2. Complex data centers need new tech hardware\nSpeaking of data centers, this has quickly emerged as NVIDIA's second-largest vertical. Sales were $2.05 billion in Q1, up a more-than-respectable 79% year over year.\nData centers operate behind the scenes but are critically important computing units in today's world. They operate the internet, mobile networks, the myriad of software services built and residing in them, and coordinate real-world activity like managing postal services and healthcare information. And in an increasingly sophisticated digital world, better hardware that is able to coordinate all this new data is needed. Lots of companies are adding GPUs to their data center designs as computing accelerators, or outright replacing older CPUs (central processing units) with faster and more energy-efficient GPUs. This is a space traditionally dominated by Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), but NVIDIA is gunning for the chip giant's haymaker.

Licensing revenue from selling chip designs will get a big boost from the pending ARM Holdings acquisition (which Kress said is still on track to be completed by early 2022), but there's a lot more to NVIDIA's business model these days.\nCloud-based recurring software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenue is a promising front for this chip company.

Overall, stocks are a \"real asset,\" which means that all else being equal, they should rise as inflation picks up. But performance ultimately may depend on the broader economic context around rising prices.Brian Belski, chief investment strategist at BMO Capital Markets, took a detailed look in a Thursday note at the sectors and industries that have historically performed best -- and worst -- during periods when inflation was behaving much like it is now.To do so, Belski and his team looked beyond year-over-year movements in the consumer-price index, instead focusing on stock-market performance in relation to the difference between the year-over-year change in the producer-price index for final demand goods and the year-over-year change in the headline CPI reading.The approach captures a \"more notable trend\" that has seen the PPI rising at a faster clip year-over-year than CPI for three straight months, he said.That means the analysts first took the difference between the year-over-year percentage change in PPI for final demand goods and the year-over-year changes in CPI. Then they correlated it with year-over-year percentage price changes for S&P 500 sectors and industry groups. The chart below shows what they found at the sector level:As the chart shows, the S&P 500 overall has a positive correlation with the differential of 0.18. Among the index's 12 sectors, energy (0.49) and industrials (0.34) are the most positively correlated, while communication services (-0.28), healthcare (-0.24), and consumer discretionary (-0.21) are the most negatively correlated.Correlation measures the strength of a relationship between two variables. A positive correlation of 1.0 would mean they move the same direction in lockstep, while a correlation of -1.0 would mean they move equally in opposite directions. A correlation of 0 means there is no statistical relationship.Belski and company further broke the analysis down to the industry level, as shown in the chart below:Inflation jitters moved front and center earlier this month when the April consumer-price index showed a hotter-than-expected year-over-year jump of 4.2% , sparking a volatile stretch for the stock market and pressuring tech-related shares and other so-called growth stocks.For the month, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite remains down 3.3%, while the S&P 500 is off 0.5% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 1.1%.

(FB), Amazon.com Inc. $(AMZN)$, Apple Inc. $(AAPL)$, Netflix Inc. $(NFLX)$, Google parent Alphabet Inc. $(GOOGL)$(GOOGL) and Microsoft Corp. $(MSFT)$, are nursing month-to-date losses.Among S&P 500 sectors, energy is up 5.7% in May, while materials are up 4.7%, financials are 3.7% higher and industrials are up 1.1%.For his part, Belski isn't convinced that the recent surge in inflation -- marked by an April consumer-price index year-over-year jump of 4.2% -- will translate into a prolonged period of elevated inflation and academics, he also doesn't see the Fed risking a policy mistake by refusing to pull forward its timeline on tapering asset purchases and delivering rate hikes.But it isn't just investors talking about inflation, Belski noted. Earnings calls for first-quarter results by S&P 500 companies saw the most mentions of \"inflation\" in more than 10 years , he said, all making it a topic worthy of discussion and research.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":507,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363578265,"gmtCreate":1614159521757,"gmtModify":1634550949825,"author":{"id":"3570709291573644","authorId":"3570709291573644","name":"Jkcubz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/454005a90377851a88dcde78f7b9fc15","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570709291573644","authorIdStr":"3570709291573644"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/363578265","repostId":"1186371880","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1186371880","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1614145368,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1186371880?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-24 13:42","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Hedge Funds Seen Luring Up to $30 Billion in Recovery This Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1186371880","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Barclays predicts industry’s first positive inflows since 2017Investors last year pulled a net $30 b","content":"<ul><li>Barclays predicts industry’s first positive inflows since 2017</li><li>Investors last year pulled a net $30 billion during pandemic</li></ul><p>Hedge funds are likely to attract as much as $30 billion from investors this year, marking the industry’s first annual net inflow since 2017, according to Barclays.</p><p>The projected $10 billion to $30 billion in net investment would also be the most since 2015, the bank said in its 2021 Global Hedge Fund Industry Outlook and Trends report, titled “The Bounce Back.” The findings are largely based on a survey of 240 investors who collectively had about $725 billion in hedge funds.</p><p>“The large, established hedge funds are still going to get the bulk of the money, but compared to 2020, there will be more allocations to managers outside of existing relationships” Roark Stahler, U.S. head of strategic consulting at Barclays, said in an interview.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b3745323906f237388556852aa8818b9\" tg-width=\"964\" tg-height=\"525\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The hedge-fund industry saw $30 billion in net withdrawals last year, largely from investors yanking money early in the coronavirus pandemic to shore up reserves during the market downturn.
