on Nasdaq, a 1.70-to-1 ratio favored advancers.\nThe S&P 500 posted 40 new 52-week highs and 10 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 38 new highs and 545 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":803,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":601087230,"gmtCreate":1638459934595,"gmtModify":1638459934680,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"US investors are not familiar with Asian&nbsp;businesses like&nbsp;Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.&nbsp;","listText":"US investors are not familiar with Asian&nbsp;businesses like&nbsp;Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.&nbsp;","text":"US investors are not familiar with Asian businesses like Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/601087230","repostId":"1189056654","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189056654","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1638458798,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1189056654?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-02 23:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189056654","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Singapore ride-hailing firm Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading.Grab had","content":"<p>Singapore ride-hailing firm&nbsp;Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading.Grab had previously risen more than 18%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/26b2390eadbdda9e5198852be72c65d5\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GRAB\">Grab</a>, Southeast Asia's biggest ride-hailing and food delivery firm,lists&nbsp;on Nasdaq on Thursday following its $40 billion merger with special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AGC\">Altimeter Growth Corp</a>.</p>\n<p>The deal is the world's biggest ever by a blank-check company and the biggest U.S. listing by a Southeast Asian firm.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

At the time, I highlighted that&nbsp;the price drop gave investors a tremendous opportunity to open a position or average down. Since the publication of that article, the stock price has increased more than 40%. That is an excellent return, but there is still huge upside to investing in this major growth fintech. SoFi’s growth story is only getting started. SoFi’s biggest catalyst is obtaining a national bank charter, and this article will explain why a bank charter will accelerate their already impressive growth.</p>\n<p><b>Introduction to the Bank Charter</b></p>\n<p>SoFi investors cannot seem to stop talking about the bank charter or trying to decipher when it will be approved. Despite the excitement surrounding this catalyst, I do not think that everyone understands the whole picture of what the bank charter can and will do for SoFi. As a chemical engineer, I am a numbers guy at heart. I’m the type of person that gets excited about putting together spreadsheets and numerical analysis and breakdowns. I will cover how I think the stock price will react to bank charter news and of what we know surrounding the timeline for approval below. However, one of the things that I most enjoy about investing is that it is a blend of analytical analysis and human emotion. The narrative of a stock often has a significant effect on its share price because there is a large human element involved and humans are not emotionless automatons. I want to start with that narrative, breaking down charter’s effects on three different parts of their business: Margins, Marketing, and Members.</p>\n<p><b>Bank Charter's EffectsMargins</b></p>\n<p>The effect on SoFi’s margins is the easiest to quantify. Owning a bank charter allows SoFi to use their deposits to finance their own loans. Lending is SoFi’s biggest source of revenue and profits. Right now, they have to borrow money from third-party banks to finance the majority of their loans. These third-party banks charge somewhere around 2-2.5% interest (200-250 basis points) to use their money. As soon as SoFi obtains a bank charter, they can use the deposits from their members to finance those loans. That means their cost of capital goes from 2% to what they pay their SoFi Money members in interest (currently 0.25%, but more on that later). This improves their margins. Additionally, answering to and being regulated by a single entity (the OCC) is easier than being independently regulated by 50 individual states (which is what SoFi currently has to do). This cuts down on administrative costs. Most people are familiar with the following slide from their investor slide deck, but it is worth putting here again.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/119616a3edb8d0ebe95b81b2035ae3d8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: SoFi Investor Presentation</span></p>\n<p>EBITDA is a measure of earnings. The dark blue bars are their earnings without the bank charter, and the light blue bars are incremental earnings they get because of their expanded margins. So in simple terms, between now and 2025, the bank charter is worth about $1B in profit margin between now and 2025 with current revenue. Profitability, free cash flow, cash on hand, and a whole host of important financial parameters will get a big boost with the bank charter.</p>\n<p><b>Marketing</b></p>\n<p>The second key aspect about the bank charter is that it allows SoFi to have more effective marketing. A national bank charter gives them legitimacy. SoFi Money deposits are already FDIC insured, but that is through partner banks. As one of the first Fintech companies with a bank charter, SoFi will have a cachet and credibility that will help them stand out from their peers. That credibility and legitimacy is all well and good, but when people are making a financial decision, the most important factor is usually how it affects their wallets.</p>\n<p><b>Personal Loans</b></p>\n<p>When you type “personal loan” into Google, the first website that pops up (after the paid advertisements) is Bankrate's website and it looks like this:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbb8aec2a4f3327da227b1942cf93687\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"701\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Bankrate</span></p>\n<p>You’ll notice that SoFi is among the top results. Their product offering ties for the lowest APR, most flexible terms, and max loan amount. What would happen if they could drop their APR by 0.25% or 0.5%? Anthony Noto gave an&nbsp;interview&nbsp;about the effects of the bank charter. Speaking specifically about loans, he said “my cost goes from two percent to fifteen [basis points]. I could give that all back to you in a lower interest rate on that loan, or I can give you a higher interest rate on your deposits, or I could drop it to the bottom line. So we’ll do a combination of those things.” In other words, there are three things ways that SoFi can use their lower cost of capital. They can use it to lower the APR on the loans they offer, they can give a higher interest rate to SoFi Money accounts, or they can use it to improve their margins,. According to Noto, they plan to do all three. SoFi already has such low costs that they are tied for being the lowest cost provider with their current cost of capital. After the bank charter, SoFi can simultaneously drop their APR to attract more customers while expanding their margins. If you are looking for a personal loan and you find that bankrate page, but now SoFi’s APR is 4.75% or 4.5%, that is almost certainly going to be the first link you click. SoFi will have gained another member into their sticky system.</p>\n<p><b>Student Loan Refinancing</b></p>\n<p>Let’s try the same exercise with the phrase “student loan refinance”. Again, after scrolling past the paid advertisement results, the first result is a NerdWallet page where you will find the following graphic:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/635b349a2dd5ef591acbf1cdf8e7e937\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"510\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: NerdWallet</span></p>\n<p>Again, SoFi’s offering is tied for the lowest rate available. If they use a portion of their lowered cost basis to offer even better rates, they will hoover up an even greater portion of the student loan refinance market.</p>\n<p><b>SoFi Money</b></p>\n<p>The second option that Anthony Noto mentioned was that SoFi can give you a higher interest rate on your deposits. This is in reference to a SoFi Money account, which is similar to a checking account. Currently, SoFi offers 0.25% interest on the balance in the SoFi Money account. Because SoFi is not a nationally chartered bank, they have to send your deposit to a third-party FDIC-insured bank. Once SoFi has their bank charter, they are free to give their members whatever interest rate they choose. The best high-yield savings accounts on the market right now give 0.5-0.6% APY:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc09da4ea8f9c7b30ddfe1d37bb0a677\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"550\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: NerdWallet</span></p>\n<p>SoFi can easily disrupt this market by offering a better product and a better interest rate. As I mentioned before, SoFi Money is akin to a checking account. It is liquid and you can spend the money in the account with a debit card or withdraw funds from an ATM. These high-yield savings accounts do not have that same liquidity. To access the money, you first have to initialize a transfer to a checking account, which typically takes 3-5 days. Banks do this on purpose to increase friction between you and your money in these higher yield accounts so that you move it less frequently. Anthony Noto is on the record as saying that this practice is not necessary in the modern banking world. SoFi will be able to offer an account that gives you the flexibility of a checking account with an interest rate that surpasses high-yield savings accounts. I believe they will do so to incentivize their members to move all their money into a SoFi Money account. Remember, the greater the total value of their deposits, the better their lending margins will be.</p>\n<p>A bank charter allows SoFi to offer best-in-class products for student loans, personal loans, checking accounts, and savings accounts. Their home mortgage loans and home refinancing products will also become even more competitive. Marketing becomes much easier when your product sells itself. Additionally, each new member and each existing member will be adding more to the bottom line than ever before.</p>\n<p><b>Members</b></p>\n<p>The bank charter also makes things better for existing and new members. This will make their product offerings even stickier than they already are. Right now, SoFi has to sweep the deposits from SoFi Money, SoFi Invest, and their other financial products into partner bank accounts. It is frustrating, for example, that moving cash from your Money account to your Invest account takes 2-3 days. This is because they have to move it from an outside bank’s brokerage account to a different bank’s deposit account. A lot of internal friction between their account, investment, credit card, and other products will be removed when they can hold their own deposits, making for a seamless and better user experience.</p>\n<p>Additionally, existing members will also get the benefits discussed in the marketing section above. This means better rates on personal loans, student loan refinancing, mortgages, and more interest for their deposits. If you are already a member and you see that SoFi has best-in-class loan offerings, it makes it much easier to stay in the SoFi ecosystem for that loan. Cross-selling is a key feature of their long-term strategy, and having more competitive products makes it easier and more attractive for members to stay with SoFi for all their financial needs. I, for example, have my emergency fund in a high-yield savings account but would gladly move it all to SoFi Money if they had slightly higher interest rates.</p>\n<p><b>Bank Charter Timeline</b></p>\n<p>I am not Nostrodomos nor do I claim to know the inner workings of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). I have no idea when the bank charter will be approved. However, there are some definitive dates that we do know and that we can compare with previous fintechs who have been granted a bank charter. Also, there are some fun breadcrumbs that SoFi seems to be leaving that indicate that the process is moving forward.</p>\n<p><b>Previous Fintech Timelines</b></p>\n<p>Varo, Square (SQ), and LendingClub (LC) are the three fintech companies that have received bank charters. There are two type of charter applications. The first is a de novo application, which is the creation of a new bank. The second is a change of control application, which is where one bank acquires another bank that already has a national bank charter and takes over their charter. Varo and Square went through the de novo process whereas Lending Club went through the change of control process through their acquisition of Radius Bank. The timelines were as follows:</p>\n<p>Varo – Received&nbsp;preliminary approval&nbsp;on September 4, 2018 and&nbsp;final approval&nbsp;on July 31, 2020, a period of almost 23 months. Varo was the first fintech to receive a bank charter.</p>\n<p>Square – Receive&nbsp;dpreliminary approval&nbsp;on March 18, 2020 and&nbsp;final approval&nbsp;on March 1, 2021, a period of about 11 months.</p>\n<p>LendingClub –Announced the acquisition&nbsp;of Radius bank on February 18, 2020, filed for the change of control on April 27, 2020, and received&nbsp;final approval&nbsp;on December 30, 2020, a period of about 10 months.</p>\n<p><b>SoFi Bank Charter Timeline</b></p>\n<p>SoFi’s application started as a de novo application and they received&nbsp;conditional approval of their bank charter application&nbsp;on October 27, 2020. However, on March 9, 2021,SoFi announced an agreement&nbsp;to acquire Golden Pacific Bancorp and changed their de novo application to a change of control application. The linked press release states that “The proposed acquisition is a key strategic step in SoFi’s path to obtaining a national bank charter”, so we can reasonably assume that SoFi believed that the acquisition would expedite the bank charter process. The same press release also states that the completion of the transaction is “anticipated before the end of 2021”. SoFi also submitted a&nbsp;CRA strategic plan&nbsp;as part of their bank charter application. That document states that the “The Bank elects to have its CRA performance evaluated under the Strategic Plan option, with a proposed period of November 1, 2021 (or upon consummation of the Bank) to December 31, 2024.” This also indicates that SoFi is prepared to begin banking operations starting in 2021. Based on the Square and LendingClub timelines, and SoFi’s own press release and CRA plan, it is probably safe to assume that the bank charter approval could come any time between now and spring of 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Breadcrumb Trail to Bank Charter Approval</b></p>\n<p>Now we get into the fun speculation stuff. Please note again that there is still a chance this all falls apart and that the OCC does not grant a bank charter. In that case, SoFi stock still has an analyst target of $25. This section is mostly just for fun, so take everything here with a grain of salt. However, if you like to play connect the dots, here are some interesting tidbits you probably want to be aware of. If this is a little too speculative for you, please just skip to the next section.</p>\n<p><b>Convertible Note Offering Bears a Suspicious Resemblance</b></p>\n<p>If you go back to that GPB acquisition press release, you find this statement: “If successfully granted a national bank charter by the OCC and Federal Reserve pursuant to its change of control application, SoFi plans to contribute $750 million in capital and pursue its national, digital business plan while maintaining GPB’s community bank business and footprint, including GPB’s current three physical branches.” SoFi planned to raise $750 M in capital to expand banking if they are granted the bank charter. On September 29, 2020, SoFi offered convertible senior notes to raise exactly $750M. The offering was later expanded to $1.1B. It is an interesting coincidence that the senior note offering raised the exact amount that SoFi said they would raise if granted a bank charter.</p>\n<p><b>Banking Hires and Positions</b></p>\n<p>SoFi is made a very auspicious hire that showed up on LinkedIn sometime in mid-September. Meet Chad Borton, Harvard grad, former Bank President of USAA and currently employed as the President of “SoFi Bank at SoFi”.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9c32b6f73ee4e73ec8c102431d2cc8c0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"496\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: LinkedIn</span></p>\n<p>He was included on the SoFi website&nbsp;Management Team&nbsp;page on October 5, although there has been a fairly conspicuous lack of fanfare surrounding his hire as there was no corresponding press release or other announcement. There has not even been mention of it on SoFi’s official twitter account. Besides hiring a new President of SoFi Bank, there have been numerous hires and job listings for roles that would only be necessary if they become a national bank, such as a Angela Smedley, a&nbsp;Senior Compliance Officer, CRA Officer. Only a nationally chartered bank is regulated by the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), so this position would be superfluous otherwise. Or this current listing for a&nbsp;Bank FP&amp;A Senior Associate. That job listing says outright in the job description that “SoFi Bank is currently in formation and will establish a nationwide fully digital bank with a member-centric approach that provides relevant, fairly priced products throughout life stages and events.”</p>\n<p>Is the Bank Charter Priced In?</p>\n<p>After the recent price movements in the SoFi stock, I am more convinced than ever that the bank charter is not priced in. Here is the SOFI daily chart from the last 3 months:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8af8403dd21b616e4c93e37aff8bf687\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TradingView with my own annotations</span></p>\n<p>You’ll notice that on September 22 and October 11, the stock had jumps of 11% and 13.5%, respectively. Those were each caused by an analyst initiating coverage of SoFi stock with a \"Buy\" rating. Absolutely nothing at all changed about the underlying fundamentals of the SoFi business, but simply because a Jeffries analyst and a Morgan Stanley analyst recommended the stock as a “buy”. This stock has run up close to 40% in a month on the back of two analyst ratings. If analyst ratings can move the stock this much, think of how much something that materially improves everything about the company can move it.</p>\n<p>What Happened to LendingClub’s stock price after obtaining their bank charter?</p>\n<p>We can also compare what happened to LendingClub’s stock price. As mentioned previously, LendingClub received their charter approval on December 30, 2020 and their share price closed that day at $8.37. The share price jumped 26% the next day and was up 37% total a week later. What has truly been astounding however, has been their incredible growth since then spurred by record earnings due to their increased margins. Although they received bank charter approval on December 30, they started operations as a fully bank on February 1, 2021. That makes Q2 2021 their first earnings after receiving charter approval. LC announced blowout earnings driven by greater margins in their lending business and raised future guidance and the stock price blew up 48% overnight. At time of writing, Q3 2021 earnings were just announced yesterday and again the stock skyrocketed going up 33% overnight. In all, since the bank charter was announced, the stock is now up 403% since the approval announcement, as you can see in the one year chart below.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fcf43842e6ba7cb3c7389d17113dafc7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TradingView with my own annotations</span></p>\n<p><b>How about Varo Bank’s Valuation with a charter?</b></p>\n<p>Another data point is Varo Bank. Varo is not a publicly traded company. However, their various funding rounds do give them a valuation. This headline pretty much says it all:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f9e57304041f5df213c374d43b21f38\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"1280\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: CNBC</span></p>\n<p>Revenue has tripled and the valuation has gone up 3.6x since they acquired their charter (I know the headline says it tripled, but 700M to 2.5B is actually 3.6x).</p>\n<p><b>Square is the Odd Fintech Out</b></p>\n<p>Square is the odd company out here, but that is for good reason. Both LendingClub and Varo operate as consumer banks and lending is a large segment of their business. Their business models make full use of the bank charter. Square, on the other hand, does not have any consumer lending products at all. They do offer business loans, but it is a very small part of their company. In fact, when you read their&nbsp;press release&nbsp;about obtaining their charter, it kind of makes you wonder why they went to the trouble of getting it in the first place. According to their press release, “We do not expect the bank to have a material impact on Square’s consolidated balance sheet, total net revenue, gross profit, or Adjusted EBITDA in 2021.”</p>\n<p><b>What is Wall Street’s Opinion on the Bank Charter Being Priced In?</b></p>\n<p>Wall Street analysts agree that the bank charter is not priced in. John Hecht of Jeffries&nbsp;specifically said&nbsp;that his $25 price target did not include the bank charter and that the charter would add about 30% in incremental adjusted EBITDA relative to his current base case estimates. Betsy Grasec of Morgan Stanley, who also initiated coverage with a $25 price target, has a bull case price target of $34. The difference between the two cases is that&nbsp;SoFi obtains its bank charter by early 2022.</p>\n<p><b>SoFi Future Expectations</b></p>\n<p>So LendingClub’s market cap had increased 4.8x in 10 months and Varo Bank’s evaluation went up 3.6x in 13 months after receiving charters. It’s also worth noting that LendingClub had already run up from about $5 at the beginning of November to over $8 at the end of December prior to the charter approval. Wall Street also believes there is significant upside with the bank charter.</p>\n<p>I think it is reasonable to assume that SoFi gets a good short-term bump when the approval goes through. SoFi has had a good run recently, but I think it is clear that there is a lot of upside left to capture. If buy ratings can result in double-digit gains, I think a 10-20% jump on the news can be expected. However, I think the bigger gains will be realized over the next two to three earnings reports that occur after the bank charter approval. I expect SoFi to crush analyst estimates and consistently raise future guidance over those quarters as the true impact of the bank charter hits membership growth numbers, revenue, and earnings. If the bank charter comes through this year, I think a conservative and achievable price target for the end of 2022 is $40-$45.</p>\n<p>The most important thing to me that people do not always seem to discuss about the charter is that it fundamentally improves the underlying business long term. This isn’t a catalyst that results in a one-time bump in revenue. This will positively affect every core product SoFi offers, make the ecosystem even stickier, and accelerate member growth (it even positively affects Galileo, although I did not have time to cover that in this article). This change will still be felt 5 and 10 years down the road as SoFi moves from a growth story to a successful fintech bank. SoFi is my highest conviction stock and I believe it will widely outperform the market over the coming years.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>SoFi Technologies: The Bank Charter Will Change Everything</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\">\nSoFi Technologies: The Bank Charter Will Change Everything\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-01 22:39 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4464001-sofi-technologies-the-bank-charter-will-change-everything><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nThe bank charter is SoFi's biggest catalyst and will have measurable effects on its margins, membership, and marketing.\nAnalysis of the timeline of previous fintechs who have received bank ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4464001-sofi-technologies-the-bank-charter-will-change-everything\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SOFI":"SoFi Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4464001-sofi-technologies-the-bank-charter-will-change-everything","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1121970113","content_text":"Summary\n\nThe bank charter is SoFi's biggest catalyst and will have measurable effects on its margins, membership, and marketing.\nAnalysis of the timeline of previous fintechs who have received bank charters suggests that the bank charter approval should be in the near future (within ~6 months).\nOther fintechs' valuations have exploded after receiving a national bank charter and SoFi will follow suit.\n\ngeorgeclerk/E+ via Getty Images\nSoFi Technologies (SOFI) is finally seeing a return to a reasonable value after its unwarranted price drop following Q2 earnings. At the time, I highlighted that the price drop gave investors a tremendous opportunity to open a position or average down. Since the publication of that article, the stock price has increased more than 40%. That is an excellent return, but there is still huge upside to investing in this major growth fintech. SoFi’s growth story is only getting started. SoFi’s biggest catalyst is obtaining a national bank charter, and this article will explain why a bank charter will accelerate their already impressive growth.\nIntroduction to the Bank Charter\nSoFi investors cannot seem to stop talking about the bank charter or trying to decipher when it will be approved. Despite the excitement surrounding this catalyst, I do not think that everyone understands the whole picture of what the bank charter can and will do for SoFi. As a chemical engineer, I am a numbers guy at heart. I’m the type of person that gets excited about putting together spreadsheets and numerical analysis and breakdowns. I will cover how I think the stock price will react to bank charter news and of what we know surrounding the timeline for approval below. However, one of the things that I most enjoy about investing is that it is a blend of analytical analysis and human emotion. The narrative of a stock often has a significant effect on its share price because there is a large human element involved and humans are not emotionless automatons. I want to start with that narrative, breaking down charter’s effects on three different parts of their business: Margins, Marketing, and Members.\nBank Charter's EffectsMargins\nThe effect on SoFi’s margins is the easiest to quantify. Owning a bank charter allows SoFi to use their deposits to finance their own loans. Lending is SoFi’s biggest source of revenue and profits. Right now, they have to borrow money from third-party banks to finance the majority of their loans. These third-party banks charge somewhere around 2-2.5% interest (200-250 basis points) to use their money. As soon as SoFi obtains a bank charter, they can use the deposits from their members to finance those loans. That means their cost of capital goes from 2% to what they pay their SoFi Money members in interest (currently 0.25%, but more on that later). This improves their margins. Additionally, answering to and being regulated by a single entity (the OCC) is easier than being independently regulated by 50 individual states (which is what SoFi currently has to do). This cuts down on administrative costs. Most people are familiar with the following slide from their investor slide deck, but it is worth putting here again.\nSource: SoFi Investor Presentation\nEBITDA is a measure of earnings. The dark blue bars are their earnings without the bank charter, and the light blue bars are incremental earnings they get because of their expanded margins. So in simple terms, between now and 2025, the bank charter is worth about $1B in profit margin between now and 2025 with current revenue. Profitability, free cash flow, cash on hand, and a whole host of important financial parameters will get a big boost with the bank charter.\nMarketing\nThe second key aspect about the bank charter is that it allows SoFi to have more effective marketing. A national bank charter gives them legitimacy. SoFi Money deposits are already FDIC insured, but that is through partner banks. As one of the first Fintech companies with a bank charter, SoFi will have a cachet and credibility that will help them stand out from their peers. That credibility and legitimacy is all well and good, but when people are making a financial decision, the most important factor is usually how it affects their wallets.\nPersonal Loans\nWhen you type “personal loan” into Google, the first website that pops up (after the paid advertisements) is Bankrate's website and it looks like this:\nSource: Bankrate\nYou’ll notice that SoFi is among the top results. Their product offering ties for the lowest APR, most flexible terms, and max loan amount. What would happen if they could drop their APR by 0.25% or 0.5%? Anthony Noto gave an interview about the effects of the bank charter. Speaking specifically about loans, he said “my cost goes from two percent to fifteen [basis points]. I could give that all back to you in a lower interest rate on that loan, or I can give you a higher interest rate on your deposits, or I could drop it to the bottom line. So we’ll do a combination of those things.” In other words, there are three things ways that SoFi can use their lower cost of capital. They can use it to lower the APR on the loans they offer, they can give a higher interest rate to SoFi Money accounts, or they can use it to improve their margins,. According to Noto, they plan to do all three. SoFi already has such low costs that they are tied for being the lowest cost provider with their current cost of capital. After the bank charter, SoFi can simultaneously drop their APR to attract more customers while expanding their margins. If you are looking for a personal loan and you find that bankrate page, but now SoFi’s APR is 4.75% or 4.5%, that is almost certainly going to be the first link you click. SoFi will have gained another member into their sticky system.\nStudent Loan Refinancing\nLet’s try the same exercise with the phrase “student loan refinance”. Again, after scrolling past the paid advertisement results, the first result is a NerdWallet page where you will find the following graphic:\nSource: NerdWallet\nAgain, SoFi’s offering is tied for the lowest rate available. If they use a portion of their lowered cost basis to offer even better rates, they will hoover up an even greater portion of the student loan refinance market.\nSoFi Money\nThe second option that Anthony Noto mentioned was that SoFi can give you a higher interest rate on your deposits. This is in reference to a SoFi Money account, which is similar to a checking account. Currently, SoFi offers 0.25% interest on the balance in the SoFi Money account. Because SoFi is not a nationally chartered bank, they have to send your deposit to a third-party FDIC-insured bank. Once SoFi has their bank charter, they are free to give their members whatever interest rate they choose. The best high-yield savings accounts on the market right now give 0.5-0.6% APY:\nSource: NerdWallet\nSoFi can easily disrupt this market by offering a better product and a better interest rate. As I mentioned before, SoFi Money is akin to a checking account. It is liquid and you can spend the money in the account with a debit card or withdraw funds from an ATM. These high-yield savings accounts do not have that same liquidity. To access the money, you first have to initialize a transfer to a checking account, which typically takes 3-5 days. Banks do this on purpose to increase friction between you and your money in these higher yield accounts so that you move it less frequently. Anthony Noto is on the record as saying that this practice is not necessary in the modern banking world. SoFi will be able to offer an account that gives you the flexibility of a checking account with an interest rate that surpasses high-yield savings accounts. I believe they will do so to incentivize their members to move all their money into a SoFi Money account. Remember, the greater the total value of their deposits, the better their lending margins will be.\nA bank charter allows SoFi to offer best-in-class products for student loans, personal loans, checking accounts, and savings accounts. Their home mortgage loans and home refinancing products will also become even more competitive. Marketing becomes much easier when your product sells itself. Additionally, each new member and each existing member will be adding more to the bottom line than ever before.\nMembers\nThe bank charter also makes things better for existing and new members. This will make their product offerings even stickier than they already are. Right now, SoFi has to sweep the deposits from SoFi Money, SoFi Invest, and their other financial products into partner bank accounts. It is frustrating, for example, that moving cash from your Money account to your Invest account takes 2-3 days. This is because they have to move it from an outside bank’s brokerage account to a different bank’s deposit account. A lot of internal friction between their account, investment, credit card, and other products will be removed when they can hold their own deposits, making for a seamless and better user experience.\nAdditionally, existing members will also get the benefits discussed in the marketing section above. This means better rates on personal loans, student loan refinancing, mortgages, and more interest for their deposits. If you are already a member and you see that SoFi has best-in-class loan offerings, it makes it much easier to stay in the SoFi ecosystem for that loan. Cross-selling is a key feature of their long-term strategy, and having more competitive products makes it easier and more attractive for members to stay with SoFi for all their financial needs. I, for example, have my emergency fund in a high-yield savings account but would gladly move it all to SoFi Money if they had slightly higher interest rates.\nBank Charter Timeline\nI am not Nostrodomos nor do I claim to know the inner workings of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). I have no idea when the bank charter will be approved. However, there are some definitive dates that we do know and that we can compare with previous fintechs who have been granted a bank charter. Also, there are some fun breadcrumbs that SoFi seems to be leaving that indicate that the process is moving forward.\nPrevious Fintech Timelines\nVaro, Square (SQ), and LendingClub (LC) are the three fintech companies that have received bank charters. There are two type of charter applications. The first is a de novo application, which is the creation of a new bank. The second is a change of control application, which is where one bank acquires another bank that already has a national bank charter and takes over their charter. Varo and Square went through the de novo process whereas Lending Club went through the change of control process through their acquisition of Radius Bank. The timelines were as follows:\nVaro – Received preliminary approval on September 4, 2018 and final approval on July 31, 2020, a period of almost 23 months. Varo was the first fintech to receive a bank charter.\nSquare – Receive dpreliminary approval on March 18, 2020 and final approval on March 1, 2021, a period of about 11 months.\nLendingClub –Announced the acquisition of Radius bank on February 18, 2020, filed for the change of control on April 27, 2020, and received final approval on December 30, 2020, a period of about 10 months.\nSoFi Bank Charter Timeline\nSoFi’s application started as a de novo application and they received conditional approval of their bank charter application on October 27, 2020. However, on March 9, 2021,SoFi announced an agreement to acquire Golden Pacific Bancorp and changed their de novo application to a change of control application. The linked press release states that “The proposed acquisition is a key strategic step in SoFi’s path to obtaining a national bank charter”, so we can reasonably assume that SoFi believed that the acquisition would expedite the bank charter process. The same press release also states that the completion of the transaction is “anticipated before the end of 2021”. SoFi also submitted a CRA strategic plan as part of their bank charter application. That document states that the “The Bank elects to have its CRA performance evaluated under the Strategic Plan option, with a proposed period of November 1, 2021 (or upon consummation of the Bank) to December 31, 2024.” This also indicates that SoFi is prepared to begin banking operations starting in 2021. Based on the Square and LendingClub timelines, and SoFi’s own press release and CRA plan, it is probably safe to assume that the bank charter approval could come any time between now and spring of 2022.\nBreadcrumb Trail to Bank Charter Approval\nNow we get into the fun speculation stuff. Please note again that there is still a chance this all falls apart and that the OCC does not grant a bank charter. In that case, SoFi stock still has an analyst target of $25. This section is mostly just for fun, so take everything here with a grain of salt. However, if you like to play connect the dots, here are some interesting tidbits you probably want to be aware of. If this is a little too speculative for you, please just skip to the next section.\nConvertible Note Offering Bears a Suspicious Resemblance\nIf you go back to that GPB acquisition press release, you find this statement: “If successfully granted a national bank charter by the OCC and Federal Reserve pursuant to its change of control application, SoFi plans to contribute $750 million in capital and pursue its national, digital business plan while maintaining GPB’s community bank business and footprint, including GPB’s current three physical branches.” SoFi planned to raise $750 M in capital to expand banking if they are granted the bank charter. On September 29, 2020, SoFi offered convertible senior notes to raise exactly $750M. The offering was later expanded to $1.1B. It is an interesting coincidence that the senior note offering raised the exact amount that SoFi said they would raise if granted a bank charter.\nBanking Hires and Positions\nSoFi is made a very auspicious hire that showed up on LinkedIn sometime in mid-September. Meet Chad Borton, Harvard grad, former Bank President of USAA and currently employed as the President of “SoFi Bank at SoFi”.\nSource: LinkedIn\nHe was included on the SoFi website Management Team page on October 5, although there has been a fairly conspicuous lack of fanfare surrounding his hire as there was no corresponding press release or other announcement. There has not even been mention of it on SoFi’s official twitter account. Besides hiring a new President of SoFi Bank, there have been numerous hires and job listings for roles that would only be necessary if they become a national bank, such as a Angela Smedley, a Senior Compliance Officer, CRA Officer. Only a nationally chartered bank is regulated by the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), so this position would be superfluous otherwise. Or this current listing for a Bank FP&A Senior Associate. That job listing says outright in the job description that “SoFi Bank is currently in formation and will establish a nationwide fully digital bank with a member-centric approach that provides relevant, fairly priced products throughout life stages and events.”\nIs the Bank Charter Priced In?\nAfter the recent price movements in the SoFi stock, I am more convinced than ever that the bank charter is not priced in. Here is the SOFI daily chart from the last 3 months:\nSource: TradingView with my own annotations\nYou’ll notice that on September 22 and October 11, the stock had jumps of 11% and 13.5%, respectively. Those were each caused by an analyst initiating coverage of SoFi stock with a \"Buy\" rating. Absolutely nothing at all changed about the underlying fundamentals of the SoFi business, but simply because a Jeffries analyst and a Morgan Stanley analyst recommended the stock as a “buy”. This stock has run up close to 40% in a month on the back of two analyst ratings. If analyst ratings can move the stock this much, think of how much something that materially improves everything about the company can move it.\nWhat Happened to LendingClub’s stock price after obtaining their bank charter?\nWe can also compare what happened to LendingClub’s stock price. As mentioned previously, LendingClub received their charter approval on December 30, 2020 and their share price closed that day at $8.37. The share price jumped 26% the next day and was up 37% total a week later. What has truly been astounding however, has been their incredible growth since then spurred by record earnings due to their increased margins. Although they received bank charter approval on December 30, they started operations as a fully bank on February 1, 2021. That makes Q2 2021 their first earnings after receiving charter approval. LC announced blowout earnings driven by greater margins in their lending business and raised future guidance and the stock price blew up 48% overnight. At time of writing, Q3 2021 earnings were just announced yesterday and again the stock skyrocketed going up 33% overnight. In all, since the bank charter was announced, the stock is now up 403% since the approval announcement, as you can see in the one year chart below.\nSource: TradingView with my own annotations\nHow about Varo Bank’s Valuation with a charter?\nAnother data point is Varo Bank. Varo is not a publicly traded company. However, their various funding rounds do give them a valuation. This headline pretty much says it all:\nSource: CNBC\nRevenue has tripled and the valuation has gone up 3.6x since they acquired their charter (I know the headline says it tripled, but 700M to 2.5B is actually 3.6x).\nSquare is the Odd Fintech Out\nSquare is the odd company out here, but that is for good reason. Both LendingClub and Varo operate as consumer banks and lending is a large segment of their business. Their business models make full use of the bank charter. Square, on the other hand, does not have any consumer lending products at all. They do offer business loans, but it is a very small part of their company. In fact, when you read their press release about obtaining their charter, it kind of makes you wonder why they went to the trouble of getting it in the first place. According to their press release, “We do not expect the bank to have a material impact on Square’s consolidated balance sheet, total net revenue, gross profit, or Adjusted EBITDA in 2021.”\nWhat is Wall Street’s Opinion on the Bank Charter Being Priced In?\nWall Street analysts agree that the bank charter is not priced in. John Hecht of Jeffries specifically said that his $25 price target did not include the bank charter and that the charter would add about 30% in incremental adjusted EBITDA relative to his current base case estimates. Betsy Grasec of Morgan Stanley, who also initiated coverage with a $25 price target, has a bull case price target of $34. The difference between the two cases is that SoFi obtains its bank charter by early 2022.\nSoFi Future Expectations\nSo LendingClub’s market cap had increased 4.8x in 10 months and Varo Bank’s evaluation went up 3.6x in 13 months after receiving charters. It’s also worth noting that LendingClub had already run up from about $5 at the beginning of November to over $8 at the end of December prior to the charter approval. Wall Street also believes there is significant upside with the bank charter.\nI think it is reasonable to assume that SoFi gets a good short-term bump when the approval goes through. SoFi has had a good run recently, but I think it is clear that there is a lot of upside left to capture. If buy ratings can result in double-digit gains, I think a 10-20% jump on the news can be expected. However, I think the bigger gains will be realized over the next two to three earnings reports that occur after the bank charter approval. I expect SoFi to crush analyst estimates and consistently raise future guidance over those quarters as the true impact of the bank charter hits membership growth numbers, revenue, and earnings. If the bank charter comes through this year, I think a conservative and achievable price target for the end of 2022 is $40-$45.\nThe most important thing to me that people do not always seem to discuss about the charter is that it fundamentally improves the underlying business long term. This isn’t a catalyst that results in a one-time bump in revenue. This will positively affect every core product SoFi offers, make the ecosystem even stickier, and accelerate member growth (it even positively affects Galileo, although I did not have time to cover that in this article). This change will still be felt 5 and 10 years down the road as SoFi moves from a growth story to a successful fintech bank. SoFi is my highest conviction stock and I believe it will widely outperform the market over the coming years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":853,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":854595781,"gmtCreate":1635466716077,"gmtModify":1635466868258,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Despite coming in below Wall Street expectation, double digit growth in a Trillion dollar company is a highly respectable feat. 83% growth in China!!

He said that Apple remains unsure whether the shortages will ease after the holiday shopping season.\n\"It's very difficult to call,\" Cook said.\nThe company's accessories segment, which contains fast-growing categories like its AirPods wireless headphones, came in at $8.8 billion, half a billion dollars lower than analyst expectations of $9.3 billion, according to Refinitiv data.\nOther segments fared better. Sales for iPads and Macs were $8.3 billion and $9.2 billion, compared with analyst estimates of $7.2 billion and $9.2 billion, according to Refinitiv data.\nThe company's services segment - which contains its App Store business - had sales of $18.3 billion in revenue, up 26%, compared with analyst expectations of $17.6 billion.

Square is seeking to complement its business with new features over time, such as Buy Now and Pay Later via <b>Afterpay</b>.</p>\n<p>The Afterpay acquisition will give it access to 16 million consumers located both inside and outside of the United States. It could give the company momentum for expansion of Cash App in new markets, especially those where consumers are underbanked, like in emerging markets.

This growth could be the tip of the iceberg for this company in the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":556,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":881643201,"gmtCreate":1631334899703,"gmtModify":1632883065523,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Fair ruling;&nbsp;Short term impact, still&nbsp;Long AAPL.own it not trade.&nbsp;","listText":"Fair ruling;&nbsp;Short term impact, still&nbsp;Long AAPL.own it not trade.&nbsp;","text":"Fair ruling; Short term impact, still Long AAPL.own it not trade.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/881643201","repostId":"1147045390","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147045390","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631321547,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1147045390?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-11 08:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Apple’s Risk Is Limited","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147045390","media":"Barrons","summary":"Apple faces real, but limited, risk to its revenue and profits from Friday’s ruling that requires it to allow developers to offer alternative payment methods for purchases made in apps downloaded through the Apple app store.In a case filed by Fortnite publisher Epic Games, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a permanent injunction that requires Apple  to allow developers the option to include links to alternative payment methods in their apps.

The world's leading subscription-based streaming service will announce its first-quarter results after having posted wildly different growth rates in the previous two reports.</p>\n<p>Netflix's late April earnings showed much slower user growth than management had forecast, which executives blamed on temporary challenges like a light content release schedule rather than rising competition from rivals like <b>Disney</b> (NYSE:DIS).</p>\n<p>That explanation raises the bar for Netflix to issue an optimistic forecast for the second half of 2021 in its announcement on July 20. Let's take a look at the key metrics to follow in that report.</p>\n<h2>Meeting low expectations</h2>\n<p>Growth expectations are low following last quarter's surprise slowdown. Netflix is aiming to add just 1 million global subscribers after gaining 4 million last quarter. The same factors that powered that weak Q1 result will affect Q2. Those include a return to more normal TV trends as people turned to other entertainment activities in the wake of the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The big growth question is whether Netflix is feeling heat from competition like Disney's expanding streaming service. Executives said in April that these threats weren't to blame for the slow start to the year, given that engagement remained strong with existing members and growth was sluggish across many markets rather than just in the ones with new competition. Tuesday's report will mark Netflix's opportunity to show that it is still the leader in the niche.</p>\n<h2>Capital questions</h2>\n<p>The improving cash flow picture has been a big factor behind Netflix's stock price surge, and that's likely to be another highlight of this report. Ironically, the worry is that the company can't spend cash quickly enough to keep the content pipeline fully stocked. Most TV and movie production paused early last year and has only now started back up. Management is hoping to spend as much as $17 billion on content this year while marking its first year of positive cash flow.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/24e7594a3156e7defcc305d31d5ff009\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"465\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>NFLX Cash from Operations (TTM) data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Look for a new financial metric this quarter, too: stock buyback spending. Executives started that program in Q2 after the company found plenty of room to invest in the business while paying down its debt.</p>\n<h2>The forecast for the second half</h2>\n<p>Netflix has been telling investors that the business will resume its impressive growth rate in the second half of the year, mainly thanks to the flood of new releases that will hit its servers. Tuesday's report is management's opportunity to back up those claims with hard numbers.</p>\n<p>The company will issue a new subscriber outlook that should reflect its industry leadership position and its unusually high member loyalty. Anything less might be a reason for shareholders to worry. Meanwhile, Netflix's updated profit outlook should continue forecasting at least a 20% operating margin, assuming management is right about its ability to raise prices as user engagement rises.</p>\n<p>The forecast for the fall and winter months might seem weak compared to the blockbuster growth the service enjoyed in 2019 and 2020.

The world's leading subscription-based streaming service will announce its first-quarter results after having posted wildly different growth rates in the previous two reports.\nNetflix's late April earnings showed much slower user growth than management had forecast, which executives blamed on temporary challenges like a light content release schedule rather than rising competition from rivals like Disney (NYSE:DIS).\nThat explanation raises the bar for Netflix to issue an optimistic forecast for the second half of 2021 in its announcement on July 20. Let's take a look at the key metrics to follow in that report.\nMeeting low expectations\nGrowth expectations are low following last quarter's surprise slowdown. Netflix is aiming to add just 1 million global subscribers after gaining 4 million last quarter. The same factors that powered that weak Q1 result will affect Q2. Those include a return to more normal TV trends as people turned to other entertainment activities in the wake of the pandemic.\nThe big growth question is whether Netflix is feeling heat from competition like Disney's expanding streaming service. Executives said in April that these threats weren't to blame for the slow start to the year, given that engagement remained strong with existing members and growth was sluggish across many markets rather than just in the ones with new competition. Tuesday's report will mark Netflix's opportunity to show that it is still the leader in the niche.\nCapital questions\nThe improving cash flow picture has been a big factor behind Netflix's stock price surge, and that's likely to be another highlight of this report. Ironically, the worry is that the company can't spend cash quickly enough to keep the content pipeline fully stocked. Most TV and movie production paused early last year and has only now started back up. Management is hoping to spend as much as $17 billion on content this year while marking its first year of positive cash flow.\nNFLX Cash from Operations (TTM) data by YCharts\nLook for a new financial metric this quarter, too: stock buyback spending. Executives started that program in Q2 after the company found plenty of room to invest in the business while paying down its debt.\nThe forecast for the second half\nNetflix has been telling investors that the business will resume its impressive growth rate in the second half of the year, mainly thanks to the flood of new releases that will hit its servers. Tuesday's report is management's opportunity to back up those claims with hard numbers.\nThe company will issue a new subscriber outlook that should reflect its industry leadership position and its unusually high member loyalty. Anything less might be a reason for shareholders to worry. Meanwhile, Netflix's updated profit outlook should continue forecasting at least a 20% operating margin, assuming management is right about its ability to raise prices as user engagement rises.\nThe forecast for the fall and winter months might seem weak compared to the blockbuster growth the service enjoyed in 2019 and 2020. But with global membership rising further above 200 million, it should also reinforce the idea that Netflix is still in the early days of improving on its current base of just 10% of total TV screen time in the U.S. market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":150,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":601087230,"gmtCreate":1638459934595,"gmtModify":1638459934680,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"US investors are not familiar with Asian&nbsp;businesses like&nbsp;Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.&nbsp;","listText":"US investors are not familiar with Asian&nbsp;businesses like&nbsp;Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.&nbsp;","text":"US investors are not familiar with Asian businesses like Grab, Korean Coupang suffered the same fate.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/601087230","repostId":"1189056654","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189056654","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1638458798,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1189056654?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-02 23:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189056654","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Singapore ride-hailing firm Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading.Grab had","content":"<p>Singapore ride-hailing firm&nbsp;Grab shares changed from up to down on its first day of trading.Grab had previously risen more than 18%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/26b2390eadbdda9e5198852be72c65d5\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GRAB\">Grab</a>, Southeast Asia's biggest ride-hailing and food delivery firm,lists&nbsp;on Nasdaq on Thursday following its $40 billion merger with special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AGC\">Altimeter Growth Corp</a>.</p>\n<p>The deal is the world's biggest ever by a blank-check company and the biggest U.S. listing by a Southeast Asian firm.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It launched as a Malaysian taxi-hailing service and now calls itself a \"superapp\" after expanding into food, grocery and parcel delivery and to digital payments, lending and other financial services.\nSingapore-headquartered Grab operates across 465 cities in eight countries in the region, counting Indonesia as its biggest. Its venture with Singapore Telecommunications Ltd(STEL.SI)was awarded a digital bank license in Singapore last year.\nGrab gained the global spotlight in 2018 when it bought the Southeast Asian business of Uber Technologies Inc(UBER.N)in return for the U.S. ride-hailing company taking a stake in Grab.\nWith some 8,000 employees, Grab has tech centres in Singapore, Beijing, Seattle, Bengaluru and other places.\nWHO'S BACKING GRAB? \nEarly investors include Japan's SoftBank, China's Didi Chuxing and venture capital firms Vertex Ventures Holdings and GGV Capital.\nGrab raised about $12 billion ahead of the listing. Investors range from venture and hedge funds to automobile companies and other ride-hailing firms, and include:\nUber, Booking Holdings Inc, China Investment Corp, Coatue Management, Hillhouse Capital, Hyundai Motor Co, Invesco Ltd, Microsoft Corp, Ping An Capital Co, Toyota Motor Corp, and Yamaha Motor Co..\nIn the SPAC deal, about three dozen investors came on board including Temasek Holdings, BlackRock, Fidelity International, Abu Dhabi's Mubadala and Malaysia's Permodalan Nasional Bhd and Altimeter Capital.\nWHO'S THE COMPETITION? \nGoTo Group, formed by the merger of Indonesian ride-hailing and deliveries firm Gojek and local e-commerce leader Tokopedia is Grab's biggest competitor.\nSingapore-based Sea Ltd, which has e-commerce, gaming and a digital payments business, and is also muscling into food delivery and financial services in Indonesia. Sea has also won a digital bank license in Singapore.\nGrab is likely to increasingly start competing with banks as it expands its financial services.\nIt also competes with such delivery companies as Foodpanda and Deliveroo PLC.\nWHAT ARE GRAB'S FINANCIALS?\nGrab's third-quarter revenue fell 9% from a year earlier to $157 million. Its adjusted loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) widened 66% to $212 million. Gross merchandise value hit a quarterly record of $4 billion.\nThe delivery business has emerged as the biggest segment as more consumers shifted to online food delivery during the pandemic.\nGrab forecasts it will turn profitable on an EBITDA basis in 2023.\nWHO ARE ITS KEY EXECUTIVES?\nAnthony Tan, 39, is the company's CEO and co-founder.\nFellow co-founder Tan Hooi Ling, 38, runs Grab's operations, including corporate strategy and technology.\nBoth Tans, unrelated, met at Harvard Business School, where they conceived the idea of the ride-hailing company.\nGrab's president, Ming Maa, is a prominent dealmaker from SoftBank, who joined the company in 2016.\nHere are some milestones for the Singapore-headquartered company:\n2011: Anthony Tan and co-founder Tan Hooi Ling create Grab in a Harvard Business School venture competition plan\n2012: Launches as MyTeksi taxi booking service in Malaysia\n2013: Expands to the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore as GrabTaxi\nApril 2014: Announces Series A funding\nJune 2014: Launches in Indonesia\nDecember 2014: Japan's SoftBank invests $250 million in a funding round\nAugust 2015: Becomes a unicorn after $350 million funding round\nDecember 2015: Announces a strategic partnership with other ride-hailing companies Ola, Didi, and Lyft that competed against Uber\nJanuary 2016: Rebrands to Grab from GrabTaxi to reflect expanding services\nNovember 2017: Launches GrabPay payments service for third-party transactions\nMarch 2018: Announces acquisition of Uber's business in Southeast Asia through an all-share deal, Uber becomes a strategic shareholder\nMay 2018: Pilots GrabFood delivery service\nJuly 2018: Unveils \"superapp\" strategy that provides a range of services under one platform\nMarch 2019: Reaches valuation of about $14 billion\nDecember 2020: Wins digital full bank license in Singapore in a partnership with Singapore Telecommunications Ltd\nApril 2021: Agrees to list on Nasdaq through a merger with special-purpose acquisition company Altimeter Growth Corp securing a valuation of nearly $40 billion","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":733,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":812347345,"gmtCreate":1630557119087,"gmtModify":1632472793941,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I hope he gets to keep his job.. and we will have some good bargains&nbsp;","listText":"I hope he gets to keep his job.. and we will have some good bargains&nbsp;","text":"I hope he gets to keep his job.. and we will have some good bargains","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/812347345","repostId":"1110833427","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":822589234,"gmtCreate":1634142180612,"gmtModify":1634142180700,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good selection as a portfolio.","listText":"Good selection as a portfolio.","text":"Good selection as a portfolio.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/822589234","repostId":"2175157695","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2175157695","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1634127300,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2175157695?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-13 20:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Top Tech Stocks to Buy for the Long Haul","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2175157695","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"If you're looking for long-term winning tech stocks to diversify your portfolio, start here.","content":"<p>The world we live in is more digital than ever.

Square is seeking to complement its business with new features over time, such as Buy Now and Pay Later via <b>Afterpay</b>.</p>\n<p>The Afterpay acquisition will give it access to 16 million consumers located both inside and outside of the United States. It could give the company momentum for expansion of Cash App in new markets, especially those where consumers are underbanked, like in emerging markets. Square reported net income of $574 million for Q2 2021 which was an increase of 89% year over year. In addition, the company has experienced revenue growth of 188% over the past three years.

(PYPL) and concluded that our target price of $425 for 2025 made the $266 purchase give a compound return of 10.5% per year. At the time, we were forecasting revenue, earnings, and PE ratios to calculate the target price.</p>\n<p>Although our forecasted PE ratio based on its relation to Earnings suggested the price was a little high for that point in time, it seemed that the market was granting the company a higher valuation given its remarkably consistent track record.</p>\n<p>It took very little smoothing to set historical revenue growth at a consistent 17.9% per year, and as for the earnings margin, net income was very close to 13.55% of revenue almost every year. The only two exceptions were one negative, in 2014, and one positive, in 2020, where the margin was 19.6%.</p>\n<p>As the year 2021 has progressed,PayPal has dropped significantly, all the way down to $200. At this price, the $425 target for 2025 would give you a compound annual return of 20.1%. I can think of three possible explanations for this collapse:</p>\n<p>a) The price was ahead of its time, and 2020 over performance got investors thinking growth had accelerated and that the price would go higher than we were forecasting. Ultimately, an investment relying on growth that has not yet materialized requires higher returns, and if the company is growing 18%, the investor wants to make at least 18% on their investment.</p>\n<p>b) There is a perceived risk of earnings growth slowing down significantly based on the company's performance after looking at financial reports from the first three quarters of 2021.</p>\n<p>c) There is a perceived risk of growth slowing down significantly due to factors outside of the company's financial performance, based on a qualitative analysis of the company and its addressable market.</p>\n<p>If the correct answer is A, this is a great investment. If the logic feels compelling enough you should buy now and enjoy your 20% return over the years. I am going to focus on the other two scenarios, where we need to think about whether the business itself is actually in trouble.</p>\n<p><b>2021 Financial Performance</b></p>\n<p>Our previous analysis onPayPal was based on revenue and net income, as per GAAP figures up to 2020. Here I am going to look at the results of the first three quarters of 2021 to see if the results are disappointing.</p>\n<p>First off, we have revenue growth. Indeed, quarter on quarter it doesn't look great, but this is not uncommon inPayPal's history of seasonality. If you look at the chart below, you can see that revenue grows the most in the fourth quarter, always drops in the first (QoQ), and has mixed results from the first to the third. Also, to continue on the 17.9% growth trend, revenue in the fourth quarter would only have to be %6.65 billion less than 8% higher than in the third quarter.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4fba8cbaa13348012cc020a72a4ecd1c\" tg-width=\"283\" tg-height=\"170\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions.</span></p>\n<p>It appears that all is good with revenue growth so far and 2021 looks to deliver once again on the near 20% revenue growth figure. Let's take a look at earnings. So far in the first 3 quarters of 2021, earnings have been, just as in 2020, much higher than the previous trend of 13.5% of revenue. So far, earnings are between 17.5 and 19% of revenue, with an average of 18.3%. It is true that this was 19.6% in 2020, but it also means that we can no longer reasonably consider 2020 an anomaly in that respect.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/65fdec19cf0bd680067fed0f3ac34f92\" tg-width=\"482\" tg-height=\"290\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions. 2021 figure is an estimate based on first 3 quarters.</span></p>\n<p>Looking at these figures, the only thing that could worry investors is year-on-year growth rates. If you look at the table below you can see the growth rates of revenue and earnings for&nbsp;Q3 2021, YTD or YoY and with the 1-year growth rate or the 2-year CAGR.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c30583b007f9682b8b5c78496897f61d\" tg-width=\"281\" tg-height=\"145\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author's work based on financial reports.</span></p>\n<p>This gives a clue of what might be the problem, as year-on-year growth rates in the third quarter look significantly worse than average, especially in earnings growth. However, if you take into account that 2020 Q3 was an exceptionally good quarter, it seems likePayPal is being punished for how good results were in 2020. If you look at the 2-year growth, results seem great, especially in earnings (it is also true that Q3 2019 was exceptionally bad, but one argument is as valid as the other).</p>\n<p>To illustrate this point, imagine that net income had been lower in 2020. The chart below contains the same figures as the one before, except that 2020 net income has been arbitrarily reduced to fit a more growing pattern.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b14c61672e1db2d56752a6a07d858b3\" tg-width=\"483\" tg-height=\"289\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions. *The figure from 2014 has been removed and the net income figure from 2020 has been reduced to illustrate the point explained above. 2021 figure is an estimate based on first 3 quarters.</span></p>\n<p>The result would be a much more promising-looking trend altogether. When taking short-term growth figures into account when valuing a company one should wonder if they are punishing bad results or actually punishing good results. All considered it doesn't seem like there is a reasonable cause in the observed financial performance ofPayPal that should make you think prospects are worse than they were 9 months ago.</p>\n<p><b>Is market growth a concern?</b></p>\n<p>With that said, the only other possible explanation is that, indeed, there are external factors that will prevent&nbsp;PayPal from expanding at the previously perceived rate. The stock was recently&nbsp;downgraded by Bernstein, claiming \"market share growth concerns\". The stock has slid over 30% since it reached an ATH at $300 makingPayPal's valuation that much more attractive. But how does this weigh against concerns over market growth?</p>\n<p>\"Fintech\" is no longer a novel concept, and in the last few years, we have seen hundreds if not thousands of companies come out with similar versions of whatPayPal offers. To say the market is saturated, might even be an understatement, butPayPal remains the king of the hill.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/462ce82e5652c8762836c4ef98dcdee5\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"687\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: datanyze.com</span></p>\n<p>In terms of Payment Processing Software,PayPal has over 50% of the market, and I say that because Braintree, which takes the fifth position, is also owned byPayPal. The problemPayPal faces though, isn't coming from the hundreds of startups and newly IPO'd companies, but by the large players which we also see on his list.</p>\n<p>This includes AmazonPay, Shopify Inc.'s (SHOP) ShopPay and even Google Pay.

(PYPL) and concluded that our target price of $425 for 2025 made the $266 purchase give a compound return of 10.5% per year. At the time, we were forecasting revenue, earnings, and PE ratios to calculate the target price.\nAlthough our forecasted PE ratio based on its relation to Earnings suggested the price was a little high for that point in time, it seemed that the market was granting the company a higher valuation given its remarkably consistent track record.\nIt took very little smoothing to set historical revenue growth at a consistent 17.9% per year, and as for the earnings margin, net income was very close to 13.55% of revenue almost every year. The only two exceptions were one negative, in 2014, and one positive, in 2020, where the margin was 19.6%.\nAs the year 2021 has progressed,PayPal has dropped significantly, all the way down to $200. At this price, the $425 target for 2025 would give you a compound annual return of 20.1%. I can think of three possible explanations for this collapse:\na) The price was ahead of its time, and 2020 over performance got investors thinking growth had accelerated and that the price would go higher than we were forecasting. Ultimately, an investment relying on growth that has not yet materialized requires higher returns, and if the company is growing 18%, the investor wants to make at least 18% on their investment.\nb) There is a perceived risk of earnings growth slowing down significantly based on the company's performance after looking at financial reports from the first three quarters of 2021.\nc) There is a perceived risk of growth slowing down significantly due to factors outside of the company's financial performance, based on a qualitative analysis of the company and its addressable market.\nIf the correct answer is A, this is a great investment. If the logic feels compelling enough you should buy now and enjoy your 20% return over the years. I am going to focus on the other two scenarios, where we need to think about whether the business itself is actually in trouble.\n2021 Financial Performance\nOur previous analysis onPayPal was based on revenue and net income, as per GAAP figures up to 2020. Here I am going to look at the results of the first three quarters of 2021 to see if the results are disappointing.\nFirst off, we have revenue growth. Indeed, quarter on quarter it doesn't look great, but this is not uncommon inPayPal's history of seasonality. If you look at the chart below, you can see that revenue grows the most in the fourth quarter, always drops in the first (QoQ), and has mixed results from the first to the third. Also, to continue on the 17.9% growth trend, revenue in the fourth quarter would only have to be %6.65 billion less than 8% higher than in the third quarter.\nSource: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions.\nIt appears that all is good with revenue growth so far and 2021 looks to deliver once again on the near 20% revenue growth figure. Let's take a look at earnings. So far in the first 3 quarters of 2021, earnings have been, just as in 2020, much higher than the previous trend of 13.5% of revenue. So far, earnings are between 17.5 and 19% of revenue, with an average of 18.3%. It is true that this was 19.6% in 2020, but it also means that we can no longer reasonably consider 2020 an anomaly in that respect.\nSource: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions. 2021 figure is an estimate based on first 3 quarters.\nLooking at these figures, the only thing that could worry investors is year-on-year growth rates. If you look at the table below you can see the growth rates of revenue and earnings for Q3 2021, YTD or YoY and with the 1-year growth rate or the 2-year CAGR.\nSource: Author's work based on financial reports.\nThis gives a clue of what might be the problem, as year-on-year growth rates in the third quarter look significantly worse than average, especially in earnings growth. However, if you take into account that 2020 Q3 was an exceptionally good quarter, it seems likePayPal is being punished for how good results were in 2020. If you look at the 2-year growth, results seem great, especially in earnings (it is also true that Q3 2019 was exceptionally bad, but one argument is as valid as the other).\nTo illustrate this point, imagine that net income had been lower in 2020. The chart below contains the same figures as the one before, except that 2020 net income has been arbitrarily reduced to fit a more growing pattern.\nSource: Author's work based on financial reports. Items in $millions. *The figure from 2014 has been removed and the net income figure from 2020 has been reduced to illustrate the point explained above. 2021 figure is an estimate based on first 3 quarters.\nThe result would be a much more promising-looking trend altogether. When taking short-term growth figures into account when valuing a company one should wonder if they are punishing bad results or actually punishing good results. All considered it doesn't seem like there is a reasonable cause in the observed financial performance ofPayPal that should make you think prospects are worse than they were 9 months ago.\nIs market growth a concern?\nWith that said, the only other possible explanation is that, indeed, there are external factors that will prevent PayPal from expanding at the previously perceived rate. The stock was recently downgraded by Bernstein, claiming \"market share growth concerns\". The stock has slid over 30% since it reached an ATH at $300 makingPayPal's valuation that much more attractive. But how does this weigh against concerns over market growth?\n\"Fintech\" is no longer a novel concept, and in the last few years, we have seen hundreds if not thousands of companies come out with similar versions of whatPayPal offers. To say the market is saturated, might even be an understatement, butPayPal remains the king of the hill.\nSource: datanyze.com\nIn terms of Payment Processing Software,PayPal has over 50% of the market, and I say that because Braintree, which takes the fifth position, is also owned byPayPal. The problemPayPal faces though, isn't coming from the hundreds of startups and newly IPO'd companies, but by the large players which we also see on his list.\nThis includes AmazonPay, Shopify Inc.'s (SHOP) ShopPay and even Google Pay. Arguably, some of these services have an advantage, in that their payment offerings complement other services. Shopify, for example, incentivizes its users and merchants to use its payment processing platforms, and Google has the advantage of being deeply embedded in a lot of the things we do.\nIn this regard, Shopify and Amazon, for example, have a big advantage, in that they control where much of the money online is spent and can use this to their advantage. However, the payment system is not just limited to eCommerce.PayPal has a presence in many other areas, such as international transfers/transactions and physical payments.PayPal can be used as a bank, and there are also advantages to being a complete financial service focused company, just like there are advantages to having an ecosystem of buyers and sellers on your platform.\nYes, the market is saturated, and growth will become a challenge, but I still believe thatPayPal can succeed long-term and I'll explain why.\nTwo more reasons I will hold on toPayPal\nMy analysis continues to support thatPayPal is on track to deliver the growth and returns I expected weeks ago. In this regard,PayPal offers growth at a reasonable price. It is a profitable and well-established company that is going nowhere.\nMore specifically though, two factors make me especially bullish onPayPal; Venmo and the power of its Balance Sheet.\nStarting with Venmo, this is perhaps the biggest reason why I thinkPayPal still holds plenty of value and growth potential.

Sea sits just inside the top 50, at the moment, with a market cap of nearly $200 billion.</p>\n<p>Sea's secret weapon is that it has not one or two, but three rapidly growing operating segments. For the time being, the company's gaming division is the only one generating positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). The company had approximately 725 million mobile game users in the second quarter, 12.7% of which were paying to play. This is a pay-to-play conversion rate that's well above the industry average of closer to 2%.</p>\n<p>But the real lure here is the e-commerce platform Shopee, which is the most downloaded shopping app in Southeastern Asia and is also gaining steam in Brazil. Shopee is primarily targeting emerging market countries and has delivered jaw-dropping growth over the past couple of years. For instance, the $15 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) purchased in the second quarter places Shopee's annual sales run rate 500% higher than the GMV produced in all of 2018.</p>\n<p>Lastly, the company's digital financial services segment can be a hit in underbanked emerging markets. Despite being a relatively new division, it already has close to 33 million paying mobile wallet customers.&nbsp; Together, these segments give Sea Limited a real shot to handily surpass a $1 trillion valuation.</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>Prediction: These Will Be 5 of the Biggest Stocks by 2040</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\">\nPrediction: These Will Be 5 of the Biggest Stocks by 2040\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-19 22:10 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/19/prediction-these-will-be-5-biggest-stocks-by-2040/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Whether you realize it or not, the stock market is a dynamic investment vehicle that's constantly evolving.

Shopee is primarily targeting emerging market countries and has delivered jaw-dropping growth over the past couple of years. For instance, the $15 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) purchased in the second quarter places Shopee's annual sales run rate 500% higher than the GMV produced in all of 2018.\nLastly, the company's digital financial services segment can be a hit in underbanked emerging markets. Despite being a relatively new division, it already has close to 33 million paying mobile wallet customers.  Together, these segments give Sea Limited a real shot to handily surpass a $1 trillion valuation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":284,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":881643201,"gmtCreate":1631334899703,"gmtModify":1632883065523,"author":{"id":"3572310408162611","authorId":"3572310408162611","name":"Vanillin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57da3673038af147111405348d5fa098","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572310408162611","authorIdStr":"3572310408162611"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Fair ruling;&nbsp;Short term impact, still&nbsp;Long AAPL.own it not trade.&nbsp;","listText":"Fair ruling;&nbsp;Short term impact, still&nbsp;Long AAPL.own it not trade.&nbsp;","text":"Fair ruling; Short term impact, still Long AAPL.own it not trade.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/881643201","repostId":"1147045390","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147045390","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631321547,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1147045390?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-11 08:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Apple’s Risk Is Limited","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147045390","media":"Barrons","summary":"Apple faces real, but limited, risk to its revenue and profits from Friday’s ruling that requires it to allow developers to offer alternative payment methods for purchases made in apps downloaded through the Apple app store.In a case filed by Fortnite publisher Epic Games, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a permanent injunction that requires Apple  to allow developers the option to include links to alternative payment methods in their apps.
