Data from its final analysis of the trial disclosed on Tuesday includes an additional 1,000 people.</p>\n<p>Nobody in the trial who received the Pfizer treatment died, compared with 12 deaths among placebo recipients.</p>\n<p>The Pfizer pills are taken with the older antiviral ritonavir every 12 hours for five days beginning shortly after onset of symptoms. If authorized, the treatment will be sold as Paxlovid.</p>\n<p>\"It's a stunning outcome,\" Pfizer Chief Scientific Officer Mikael Dolsten said in an interview.</p>\n<p>\"We're talking about a staggering number of lives saved and hospitalizations prevented. And of course, if you deploy this quickly after infection, we are likely to reduce transmission dramatically,\" Dolsten said.</p>\n<p>Pfizer also released early data from a second study suggesting that the treatment reduced hospitalizations by around 70% in a smaller trial of standard-risk adults, including some higher-risk vaccinated people.</p>\n<p>Pfizer said those results showed a positive trend, but were not statistically significant. They are following the results and plan to release data from the final 20% of participants in the 1,100-patient trial. The trial did not show that the drug alleviated symptoms of COVID-19 in that population.</p>\n<p>Dolsten said he expects authorization for use in high-risk individuals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory agencies soon. He does not believe an FDA advisory panel meeting will be needed.</p>\n<p>\"We're in very advanced regulatory dialogues with both Europe and the UK, and we have dialogues with most of the major regulatory agencies globally,\" Dolsten said.</p>\n<p><b>'VERY EXCITING RESULTS'</b></p>\n<p>Pfizer submitted data to the FDA last month, asking for emergency use authorization (EUA) of the drug.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04e1175e6a0c8ba936538fabc8038071\" tg-width=\"960\" tg-height=\"640\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Paxlovid, a Pfizer's coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pill, is seen manufactured in Ascoli, Italy, in this undated handout photo obtained by Reuters on November 16, 2021. Pfizer/Handout via REUTERS</span></p>\n<p>\"These are very exciting results,\" said Dr. Paul Sax, a professor at Harvard Medical School.</p>\n<p>Sax said the FDA should try to accelerate the authorization process as much as possible, noting there are very limited treatment options for high-risk people outside of the hospital.</p>\n<p>There are currently no oral antiviral treatments for COVID-9 authorized in the United States.</p>\n<p>Analysts on average forecast 2022 revenue of more than $24 billion from the pill, which would more than make up for any decline in vaccine sales after 2021.</p>\n<p>Rival Merck &amp; Co&nbsp;has asked for an EUA for its antiviral pill molnupiravir. But that drug only reduced hospitalizations and deaths in its clinical trial of high-risk patients by around 30%.</p>\n<p>Some scientists have also raised safety concerns about the potential for birth defects from the Merck drug, as well as worries that it could cause the virus to mutate.</p>\n<p>Pfizer's treatment works differently.

This potentially revolutionary trend is just starting to unfold, and businesses and investors alike are scrambling to get in on the ground floor.</p>\n<p>As an emerging medium, it's fair to say the metaverse is a relatively high-risk investment category, but people who back the right companies and projects could go on to enjoy stellar returns over the long term. With that in mind, read on for a look at three top metaverse stocks that are worth adding to your portfolio before the month is out.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d47eead465efdbbba1ee3bfe3eb56002\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></h2>\n<p>If you had to pick just <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> company that appears to be positioning itself to lead the charge on the metaverse, <b>Meta Platforms</b> (NASDAQ:FB) would have to be as strong a choice as any. The company's belief in virtual worlds as a major step forward and revolutionary opportunity is so strong that CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his company opted to change the business's name from Facebook to one that reflects its big new growth bet.</p>\n<p>Meta Platforms' incredible resources and massive active user base give the company strong foundations to launch its metaverse projects. Between Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, the company operates some of the world's most popular social media and communications platforms. The company ended its last quarter with 3.6 billion monthly active users -- good for roughly 45% of the world's population.</p>\n<p>In addition to its massive reach and development resources, Meta Platforms has also been an early mover in the metaverse. Even before the term \"metaverse\" entered into the popular lexicon, the company was eyeing virtual reality (VR) as the next revolutionary computing platform. The tech giant's VR division is at the forefront of hardware (through its Oculus headsets) and software in the category, and the company's big acquisitions should help solidify its leadership position in interactive virtual content and services.</p>\n<h2>2. Unity Software</h2>\n<p>Creating immersive virtual worlds is a complex process, but <b>Unity Software</b> (NYSE:U) offers software that can make it much easier. The company provides a development engine for video games and interactive experiences, and it's poised to help usher in the age of the metaverse. With Unity's tools and services, even relatively small teams can craft engaging visuals and worlds that go on to be enjoyed by a wide audience.</p>\n<p>Unity has already emerged as a go-to development engine for the creation of AR (augmented reality) and VR experiences, with roughly 60% of applications in the combined categories using its tools. Roughly 71% of this year's top 1,000 mobile games were also built using the company's development resources.</p>\n<p>Unity managed to grow sales 43% year over year in its most recently reported quarter, particularly impressive because it was lapping a year of explosive growth in 2020. As demand for metaverse content and services increases, Unity looks uniquely well-positioned to help a wide variety of businesses find success in the emerging medium.</p>\n<h2>3.

This potentially revolutionary trend is just starting to unfold, and businesses and investors alike are scrambling to get in on the ground floor.\nAs an emerging medium, it's fair to say the metaverse is a relatively high-risk investment category, but people who back the right companies and projects could go on to enjoy stellar returns over the long term. With that in mind, read on for a look at three top metaverse stocks that are worth adding to your portfolio before the month is out.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Meta Platforms\nIf you had to pick just one company that appears to be positioning itself to lead the charge on the metaverse, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB) would have to be as strong a choice as any. The company's belief in virtual worlds as a major step forward and revolutionary opportunity is so strong that CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his company opted to change the business's name from Facebook to one that reflects its big new growth bet.\nMeta Platforms' incredible resources and massive active user base give the company strong foundations to launch its metaverse projects. Between Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, the company operates some of the world's most popular social media and communications platforms. The company ended its last quarter with 3.6 billion monthly active users -- good for roughly 45% of the world's population.\nIn addition to its massive reach and development resources, Meta Platforms has also been an early mover in the metaverse. Even before the term \"metaverse\" entered into the popular lexicon, the company was eyeing virtual reality (VR) as the next revolutionary computing platform. The tech giant's VR division is at the forefront of hardware (through its Oculus headsets) and software in the category, and the company's big acquisitions should help solidify its leadership position in interactive virtual content and services.\n2. Unity Software\nCreating immersive virtual worlds is a complex process, but Unity Software (NYSE:U) offers software that can make it much easier. The company provides a development engine for video games and interactive experiences, and it's poised to help usher in the age of the metaverse. With Unity's tools and services, even relatively small teams can craft engaging visuals and worlds that go on to be enjoyed by a wide audience.\nUnity has already emerged as a go-to development engine for the creation of AR (augmented reality) and VR experiences, with roughly 60% of applications in the combined categories using its tools. Roughly 71% of this year's top 1,000 mobile games were also built using the company's development resources.\nUnity managed to grow sales 43% year over year in its most recently reported quarter, particularly impressive because it was lapping a year of explosive growth in 2020. As demand for metaverse content and services increases, Unity looks uniquely well-positioned to help a wide variety of businesses find success in the emerging medium.\n3. Nvidia\nWhether through local devices or cloud-based computing platforms, powerful computing hardware is going to play a big role in the evolution of the metaverse. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the leading provider of graphics processing units (GPUs), and the semiconductor specialist will likely be a key components provider for the evolution of virtual worlds.\nIn addition to its hardware business, Nvidia is also positioning itself to benefit from the metaverse trend with its Omniverse software platform. Omniverse is a development, productivity, and sharing service tailored for the creation of metaverse experiences, which could turn into a major performance driver for the company.\nNvidia is already generating very strong margins and looks poised to retain its leadership position in the GPU space. The addition of a substantial software-as-a-service (SaaS) component to its business model could add a major new source of revenue and push its margins even higher.\nBecause of long-term growth opportunities for the company's processors in the gaming, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and machine vision fields, the graphics specialist already had a promising outlook, and the rise of the metaverse is presenting another potentially explosive growth opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1340,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3583318222987864","authorId":"3583318222987864","name":"TheMilkyWay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/190d59bcbcc876e15543cbd430d8c1f2","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3583318222987864","idStr":"3583318222987864"},"content":"Have not missed yet, the semi stocks are pulling back now.

Through Dec. 6, the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has gained 22% on a year-to-date basis. That essentially doubles up the average annual total return, including dividends, of the S&amp;P 500 since 1980 (about 11%).</p>\n<p>But just because the broader market is up big, it doesn't mean there aren't still bargains to be found. For patient investors who lean on time as their ally, there are plenty of stocks that can make them richer.</p>\n<p>Best of all, you don't need a mountain of money to build wealth on Wall Street. With most brokerages eliminating minimum deposit requirements and trading commissions, any amount of money -- even $200 -- can be the right amount to grow your portfolio.</p>\n<p>If you have $200 ready to invest, the following are some of the smartest stocks you can buy in December.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5876cf8596571681f0d3218da4f74c8c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>CrowdStrike Holdings</h2>\n<p>One of the smartest buys investors can make is scooping up shares of premier cybersecurity stock <b>CrowdStrike Holdings</b> (NASDAQ:CRWD).</p>\n<p>Cybersecurity may not be the fastest-growing trend, but there's arguably not a safer double-digit growth opportunity through the midpoint of the decade. Since hackers and robots don't take time off just because the U.S. economy or stock market hit a rough patch, businesses are increasingly turning to third-party providers to secure their data and that of their clients.</p>\n<p>What makes CrowdStrike special is its cloud-native Falcon security platform. Falcon relies on artificial intelligence to grow smarter over time and is currently overseeing about 1 trillion events <i>per day</i>. As a cloud-based platform, Falcon is often better at recognizing and responding to threats than on-premises solutions. While CrowdStrike's solutions aren't the cheapest on a nominal basis, the long-term reward of data protection makes Falcon a more cost-effective platform for businesses.</p>\n<p>The proof is in the pudding that clients are thrilled with CrowdStrike's suite of services. The total number of subscribers has skyrocketed from 450 to almost 14,700 in less than five years, with 68% of its clients purchasing four or more cloud-module subscriptions, as of Sept. 30. The latter is up from under 10% less than five years ago. The company's customer retention rate has also hovered around 98% for two years running.</p>\n<p>CrowdStrike's stock isn't inexpensive using standard fundamental metrics. However, a valuation premium is certainly warranted with its subscription gross margin already at its long-term target this early in its expansion.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/626f702dc64e03a6186f9231d5b698b4\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>AT&amp;T</h2>\n<p>Keep in mind that it's not just growth stocks that are begging to be bought. Value and income plays like telecom stock <b>AT&amp;T</b> (NYSE:T) represent a smart way to put $200 to work right now.</p>\n<p>To state the obvious, AT&amp;T's high-growth heyday is long gone. But just because the company has matured, it doesn't mean there aren't organic growth opportunities on its doorstep.</p>\n<p>For instance, AT&amp;T should benefit nicely from the ongoing rollout of 5G wireless infrastructure. Although upgrading its infrastructure won't be cheap, the investment will pay off handsomely. That's because it's been a decade since wireless download speeds were meaningfully improved. With 5G becoming widely available, consumers and businesses are liable to undertake a multiyear device upgrade cycle to take advantage of a faster network. Since the bulk of AT&amp;T's wireless margins derive from data consumption, 5G should provide a healthy shot of organic growth through at least 2025.</p>\n<p>AT&amp;T is also in the process of spinning off its content arm, WarnerMedia, and combining it with <b>Discovery</b>&nbsp;to create a new media powerhouse. The new company should have over 85 million streaming subscribers, a more diverse content library, and it'll be able to cut its operating costs by over $3 billion a year.</p>\n<p>At an estimated 7 times forecasted earnings per share this year, and a high-yield dividend to boot, AT&amp;T is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the smartest value and income plays to buy now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5aacd35062c7935f82d018ba2d593ab6\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Exelixis</h2>\n<p>Another genius purchase investors can make in December with $200 is biotech stock <b>Exelixis</b> (NASDAQ:EXEL).</p>\n<p>Exelixis has had a bit of a rough year, with its shares down close to 20%. The cancer-focused drug developer disappointed Wall Street in late June when it unveiled interim analysis data from the late-stage Cosmic-312 study in patients with previously untreated liver cancer. The company's lead drug, Cabometyx, was paired with atezolizumab (better known by its brand name, Tecentriq) in this study. While progression-free survival data hit the mark, the company noted it was unlikely that overall survival data would show a statistically significant improvement versus Nexavar.</p>\n<p>Though this was undoubtedly disappointing, as first-line hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an indication that could use more-effective treatments, the downside Exelixis' shares have seen since this data release looks to be an overreaction.</p>\n<p>Even assuming the Food and Drug Administration doesn't grant this combo treatment approval in first-line HCC -- the company plans to file a supplemental new drug application in Q1 2022 -- Cabometyx is in line for well over $1 billion in annual revenue from first- and second-line kidney cancer indications and more advanced cases of HCC.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, Cabometyx is being examined in close to six dozen clinical trials. Some failures are expected. But if even a handful of these studies result in label expansion opportunities, Cabometyx could surpass $2 billion in annual sales.</p>\n<p>With Exelixis sitting on a whopping $1.8 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents and investments (this is about 35% of its market cap), and the company's price-earnings-to-growth ratio well below 1, it has all the hallmarks of a screaming buy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b13f98298635a74f4491a99bf47eeded\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a></h2>\n<p>A final smart stock investors can buy with $200 in December is pharmacy chain <b>Walgreens Boots Alliance</b> (NASDAQ:WBA). Similar to AT&amp;T, this is another value/income play that's not getting the love it deserves.</p>\n<p>Normally, healthcare stocks aren't adversely affected by economic downturns. Since we can't control when we get sick or what ailment(s) we develop, there's always demand for drugs, devices, and healthcare services. But during the pandemic, Walgreens wasn't as lucky. Reduced foot traffic hurt demand for front-end sales and clinic revenue.</p>\n<p>That's the bad news. The good news is Walgreens is incredibly inexpensive following the worst of the pandemic, and it's already well into a multipoint turnaround plan designed to increase margins and boost its organic growth rate.</p>\n<p>Initially, management anticipated reducing annual operating expenses by $2 billion as of the end of fiscal 2022. But cost-cutting activity has been far better than expected. Walgreens achieved more than $2 billion in annual cost reductions, and it did so by the end of fiscal 2021.</p>\n<p>However, it's not cost-cutting that should have investors excited. Rather, it's the company's investments. For example, Walgreens has spared no expense when it comes to its investments in digitization. Placing greater emphasis on direct-to-consumer sales should result in sustainable double-digit online revenue growth.</p>\n<p>Walgreens has also partnered with VillageMD to open more than 600 full-service clinics in over 30 U.S. markets by 2025. These co-located clinics will be physician-staffed and should play a key role in funneling local residents to the company's higher-margin pharmacy.</p>\n<p>At less than 10 times Wall Street's forecasted earnings per share for fiscal 2022, Walgreens Boots Alliance is a steal.</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>The Smartest Stocks to Buy With $200 in December</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\">\nThe Smartest Stocks to Buy With $200 in December\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-10 23:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/12/10/the-smartest-stocks-to-buy-with-200-in-december/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Despite volatility rearing its head over the past couple of weeks, it's been another stellar year for the stock market.

With most brokerages eliminating minimum deposit requirements and trading commissions, any amount of money -- even $200 -- can be the right amount to grow your portfolio.\nIf you have $200 ready to invest, the following are some of the smartest stocks you can buy in December.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nCrowdStrike Holdings\nOne of the smartest buys investors can make is scooping up shares of premier cybersecurity stock CrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ:CRWD).\nCybersecurity may not be the fastest-growing trend, but there's arguably not a safer double-digit growth opportunity through the midpoint of the decade. Since hackers and robots don't take time off just because the U.S. economy or stock market hit a rough patch, businesses are increasingly turning to third-party providers to secure their data and that of their clients.\nWhat makes CrowdStrike special is its cloud-native Falcon security platform. Falcon relies on artificial intelligence to grow smarter over time and is currently overseeing about 1 trillion events per day. As a cloud-based platform, Falcon is often better at recognizing and responding to threats than on-premises solutions. While CrowdStrike's solutions aren't the cheapest on a nominal basis, the long-term reward of data protection makes Falcon a more cost-effective platform for businesses.\nThe proof is in the pudding that clients are thrilled with CrowdStrike's suite of services. The total number of subscribers has skyrocketed from 450 to almost 14,700 in less than five years, with 68% of its clients purchasing four or more cloud-module subscriptions, as of Sept. 30. The latter is up from under 10% less than five years ago. The company's customer retention rate has also hovered around 98% for two years running.\nCrowdStrike's stock isn't inexpensive using standard fundamental metrics. However, a valuation premium is certainly warranted with its subscription gross margin already at its long-term target this early in its expansion.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nAT&T\nKeep in mind that it's not just growth stocks that are begging to be bought. Value and income plays like telecom stock AT&T (NYSE:T) represent a smart way to put $200 to work right now.\nTo state the obvious, AT&T's high-growth heyday is long gone. But just because the company has matured, it doesn't mean there aren't organic growth opportunities on its doorstep.\nFor instance, AT&T should benefit nicely from the ongoing rollout of 5G wireless infrastructure. Although upgrading its infrastructure won't be cheap, the investment will pay off handsomely. That's because it's been a decade since wireless download speeds were meaningfully improved. With 5G becoming widely available, consumers and businesses are liable to undertake a multiyear device upgrade cycle to take advantage of a faster network. Since the bulk of AT&T's wireless margins derive from data consumption, 5G should provide a healthy shot of organic growth through at least 2025.\nAT&T is also in the process of spinning off its content arm, WarnerMedia, and combining it with Discovery to create a new media powerhouse. The new company should have over 85 million streaming subscribers, a more diverse content library, and it'll be able to cut its operating costs by over $3 billion a year.\nAt an estimated 7 times forecasted earnings per share this year, and a high-yield dividend to boot, AT&T is one of the smartest value and income plays to buy now.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nExelixis\nAnother genius purchase investors can make in December with $200 is biotech stock Exelixis (NASDAQ:EXEL).\nExelixis has had a bit of a rough year, with its shares down close to 20%. The cancer-focused drug developer disappointed Wall Street in late June when it unveiled interim analysis data from the late-stage Cosmic-312 study in patients with previously untreated liver cancer. The company's lead drug, Cabometyx, was paired with atezolizumab (better known by its brand name, Tecentriq) in this study. While progression-free survival data hit the mark, the company noted it was unlikely that overall survival data would show a statistically significant improvement versus Nexavar.\nThough this was undoubtedly disappointing, as first-line hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an indication that could use more-effective treatments, the downside Exelixis' shares have seen since this data release looks to be an overreaction.\nEven assuming the Food and Drug Administration doesn't grant this combo treatment approval in first-line HCC -- the company plans to file a supplemental new drug application in Q1 2022 -- Cabometyx is in line for well over $1 billion in annual revenue from first- and second-line kidney cancer indications and more advanced cases of HCC.\nFurthermore, Cabometyx is being examined in close to six dozen clinical trials. Some failures are expected. But if even a handful of these studies result in label expansion opportunities, Cabometyx could surpass $2 billion in annual sales.\nWith Exelixis sitting on a whopping $1.8 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents and investments (this is about 35% of its market cap), and the company's price-earnings-to-growth ratio well below 1, it has all the hallmarks of a screaming buy.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nWalgreens Boots Alliance\nA final smart stock investors can buy with $200 in December is pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA). Similar to AT&T, this is another value/income play that's not getting the love it deserves.\nNormally, healthcare stocks aren't adversely affected by economic downturns. Since we can't control when we get sick or what ailment(s) we develop, there's always demand for drugs, devices, and healthcare services. But during the pandemic, Walgreens wasn't as lucky. Reduced foot traffic hurt demand for front-end sales and clinic revenue.\nThat's the bad news. The good news is Walgreens is incredibly inexpensive following the worst of the pandemic, and it's already well into a multipoint turnaround plan designed to increase margins and boost its organic growth rate.\nInitially, management anticipated reducing annual operating expenses by $2 billion as of the end of fiscal 2022. But cost-cutting activity has been far better than expected. Walgreens achieved more than $2 billion in annual cost reductions, and it did so by the end of fiscal 2021.\nHowever, it's not cost-cutting that should have investors excited. Rather, it's the company's investments. For example, Walgreens has spared no expense when it comes to its investments in digitization. Placing greater emphasis on direct-to-consumer sales should result in sustainable double-digit online revenue growth.\nWalgreens has also partnered with VillageMD to open more than 600 full-service clinics in over 30 U.S. markets by 2025. These co-located clinics will be physician-staffed and should play a key role in funneling local residents to the company's higher-margin pharmacy.\nAt less than 10 times Wall Street's forecasted earnings per share for fiscal 2022, Walgreens Boots Alliance is a steal.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1175,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":605620426,"gmtCreate":1639154224060,"gmtModify":1639154224060,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573003064152790","idStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"great news","listText":"great news","text":"great news","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/605620426","repostId":"1199826178","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199826178","pubTimestamp":1639149380,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199826178?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-10 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hedge Funds Ensnared in Expansive DOJ Probe Into Short Selling","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199826178","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Funds and researchers are scrutinized by Justice Department.

By the time shopping began, though, most minds were on another news story. A new Covid-19 variant had been detected in South Africa and it was quickly spreading to Europe. Labeled the omicron variant, this new Covid-19 strain poses a threat to the pandemic recovery story. Perhaps most importantly, we don’t yet know how big that threat is. Scientists haveindicatedthat it will take at least a few weeks for them to assess the effectiveness of vaccines against the new variant, which features multiple mutations. As investors ponder what this means for markets, focus has shifted to one specific question: What does this mean for vaccine stocks?</p>\n<p>Investors have expressed concern at what the the emergence of a new variant may mean for markets. It bears noting, though, that such a scenario creates a new opportunity for vaccine stocks, specifically for a new company to pull into the lead.</p>\n<p>While&nbsp;<b>Pfizer’s</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)&nbsp;success in&nbsp;producing&nbsp;a vaccine approved for children has helped it maintain a lead over its competitors, other companies recognize the need for further innovation within the vaccine space. Scientists and researchers have yet to reach a conclusion as to how the new variant will react to current vaccines, but the companies producing them are already working around the clock.</p>\n<p>Many vaccine stocks were trending this morning as the omicron variant dominated news coverage. Let’s take a look at what the most prominent vaccine producers are saying and when we can expect to see progress.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Moderna</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>BioNTech</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>BNTX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson</b>(NYSE:<b><u>JNJ</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Novavax</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVAX</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Moderna (MRNA)</b></p>\n<p>Moderna was one of the first companies to have its executive team discuss address the omicron variant.</p>\n<p>On Sunday, CMO Paul Burton spoke to<i>BBC’s</i>Andrew Marr and said Moderna was hoping to see clinical trials of an omicron-specific booster begin within60 to 90 days. CEO Stephane Bancel recentlyspoketo<i>CNBC’s</i>“Squawk Box” on the topic of an omicron- targeting vaccine. While he stated that it will likely take months for the company to develop, produce and ship a vaccine with the ability to target that specific variant, he noted that a booster shot containing a higher 100-microgram dose could be made available much sooner.</p>\n<p>Bancel also floated the possibility of administering higher doses of the current vaccines to particularly high-risk patients, such as those in the elderly or immunocompromised categories.</p>\n<p>This talk of an effective booster that could take on the new variant has sent MRNA stock shooting up today. As of this writing, vaccine stocks are having a good day and Moderna has risen by more than 10%. Today’s gains have put it up by more than 30% for the past five days.</p>\n<p>While&nbsp;the head of drugmaker Moderna said COVID-19 vaccines are unlikely to be as effective against the Omicron variant of the coronavirus as they have been previously, sparking fresh worry in financial markets about the trajectory of the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"There is no world, I think, where (the effectiveness) is the same level . . . we had with Delta,\" Moderna Chief Executive Stéphane Bancel told the Financial Times&nbsp;in an interview.</p>\n<p>\"I think it's going to be a material drop. I just don't know how much because we need to wait for the data. But all the scientists I've talked to . . . are like 'this is not going to be good.'\"</p>\n<p><b>Pfizer (PFE)</b></p>\n<p>No pharmaceutical company has received as much positive press for its vaccine innovations as Pfizer. Earlier this month, CEO Albert Bourla wasrecommended by one&nbsp;<i>InvestorPlace</i>&nbsp;contributorfor CEO of the year.</p>\n<p>The industry leader alsodiscussedthe new variant earlier today, stating that he believed that Pfizer’s Covid-19 pill would prove effective against it. He noted that the treatment method was designed with the thought process that most virus mutations were coming in spikes, exactly what we are seeing so far from the omicron variant. This gives him, he said, a “very high level of confidence” that the oral treatment, Paxlovid, will prove well-suited to help patients with the new Covid-19 strain.</p>\n<p>Clinical trials have found that when Paxlovid is taken with HIV drug ritonavir, it reduces hospitalization and death by 89% if taken within three days after symptoms have begun.</p>\n<p>While Bourla is still not able to offer much on the effectiveness of the company’s two-dose vaccine against the new variant, he experts it to offer at least some protection. He also said that Pfizer is already at work on a new vaccine and that it produced a DNA template on Friday, speculating that it could be ready within 100 days.</p>\n<p>It is worth noting that Pfizer has been able to create vaccines for previous variants in that timeframe but did not end up having to administer them, as the previously distributed vaccines remained effective.</p>\n<p><b>BioNTech (BNTX)</b></p>\n<p>Pfizer’s original vaccine partner isn’t missing a beat, either.</p>\n<p>The German biotech innovatortold<i>Business Insider</i>that it is already at work on the development of an adapted vaccine to combat the omicron variant. According to the company’s spokespeople, the first steps of such a process “overlap with the research necessary” to evaluate the necessity of a new shot. This approach should enable its research team to move forward as quickly as possible.</p>\n<p>Like its competitors, BioNTech expects to acquire the data necessary to determine next steps in roughly two weeks, as medical researchers rush to examine new cases. In an attempt to keep the process as efficient as possible, the company is already testing its existing vaccine doses. Like Pfizer, it claims that it will be able to ship out this adapted vaccine within 100 days should it prove necessary.</p>\n<p>Like other vaccine stocks, BNTX is having a good day as speculation regarding the vaccine mounts. Shares are up almost 4% as of this writing. Not unlike its competitor Moderna, BioNTech is up almost 20% for the week after seeing a period of mostly flatlining. Earlier this Summer,<i>InvestorPlace</i>&nbsp;analyst Louis Navelliercalledit a better buy among vaccine stocks than Pfizer.</p>\n<p><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)</b></p>\n<p>Like its competitors, Johnson &amp; Johnson is already at work on ways to combat the new variant. Still waiting on further data, though, the company hasstatedit “will progress [its new vaccine] into clinical studies if needed.”</p>\n<p>Mathai Mammen, global head of research and development at J&amp;J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals, says that the company remains confident in the “robust humoral and cell-mediated responses” that its original vaccine has elicited in patients to date, giving the company confidence in its ability to adapt its current vaccine to handle the omicron variant.</p>\n<p>Mammen added that the company has already begun work on a new vaccine for exactly that purpose and will “rapidly progress into clinical trails” if it is deemed necessary. It has beenreportedthat testing has already begun.</p>\n<p><b>Novavax (NVAX)</b></p>\n<p>A later player to the vaccine race, Novavax hasn’t had the same success in the U.S. as Pfizer or Moderna.</p>\n<p>However, the company recognizes it has a chance to make up the lost ground. In fact, it is already working to develop a vaccine to combat the omicron variant. Novavax hasstatedthat its vaccine will contain the mutated spikes that have experts worried about the variant, thereby enabling recipients to develop necessary immune responses.

By the time shopping began, though, most minds were on another news story. A new Covid-19 variant had been detected in South Africa and it was quickly spreading to Europe. Labeled the omicron variant, this new Covid-19 strain poses a threat to the pandemic recovery story. Perhaps most importantly, we don’t yet know how big that threat is. Scientists haveindicatedthat it will take at least a few weeks for them to assess the effectiveness of vaccines against the new variant, which features multiple mutations. As investors ponder what this means for markets, focus has shifted to one specific question: What does this mean for vaccine stocks?\nInvestors have expressed concern at what the the emergence of a new variant may mean for markets. It bears noting, though, that such a scenario creates a new opportunity for vaccine stocks, specifically for a new company to pull into the lead.\nWhile Pfizer’s(NYSE:PFE) success in producing a vaccine approved for children has helped it maintain a lead over its competitors, other companies recognize the need for further innovation within the vaccine space. Scientists and researchers have yet to reach a conclusion as to how the new variant will react to current vaccines, but the companies producing them are already working around the clock.\nMany vaccine stocks were trending this morning as the omicron variant dominated news coverage. Let’s take a look at what the most prominent vaccine producers are saying and when we can expect to see progress.\n\nModerna(NASDAQ:MRNA)\nPfizer(NYSE:PFE)\nBioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX)\nJohnson & Johnson(NYSE:JNJ)\nNovavax(NASDAQ:NVAX)\n\nModerna (MRNA)\nModerna was one of the first companies to have its executive team discuss address the omicron variant.\nOn Sunday, CMO Paul Burton spoke toBBC’sAndrew Marr and said Moderna was hoping to see clinical trials of an omicron-specific booster begin within60 to 90 days. CEO Stephane Bancel recentlyspoketoCNBC’s“Squawk Box” on the topic of an omicron- targeting vaccine. While he stated that it will likely take months for the company to develop, produce and ship a vaccine with the ability to target that specific variant, he noted that a booster shot containing a higher 100-microgram dose could be made available much sooner.\nBancel also floated the possibility of administering higher doses of the current vaccines to particularly high-risk patients, such as those in the elderly or immunocompromised categories.\nThis talk of an effective booster that could take on the new variant has sent MRNA stock shooting up today. As of this writing, vaccine stocks are having a good day and Moderna has risen by more than 10%. Today’s gains have put it up by more than 30% for the past five days.\nWhile the head of drugmaker Moderna said COVID-19 vaccines are unlikely to be as effective against the Omicron variant of the coronavirus as they have been previously, sparking fresh worry in financial markets about the trajectory of the pandemic.\n\"There is no world, I think, where (the effectiveness) is the same level . . . we had with Delta,\" Moderna Chief Executive Stéphane Bancel told the Financial Times in an interview.\n\"I think it's going to be a material drop. I just don't know how much because we need to wait for the data. But all the scientists I've talked to . . . are like 'this is not going to be good.'\"\nPfizer (PFE)\nNo pharmaceutical company has received as much positive press for its vaccine innovations as Pfizer. Earlier this month, CEO Albert Bourla wasrecommended by one InvestorPlace contributorfor CEO of the year.\nThe industry leader alsodiscussedthe new variant earlier today, stating that he believed that Pfizer’s Covid-19 pill would prove effective against it. He noted that the treatment method was designed with the thought process that most virus mutations were coming in spikes, exactly what we are seeing so far from the omicron variant. This gives him, he said, a “very high level of confidence” that the oral treatment, Paxlovid, will prove well-suited to help patients with the new Covid-19 strain.\nClinical trials have found that when Paxlovid is taken with HIV drug ritonavir, it reduces hospitalization and death by 89% if taken within three days after symptoms have begun.\nWhile Bourla is still not able to offer much on the effectiveness of the company’s two-dose vaccine against the new variant, he experts it to offer at least some protection. He also said that Pfizer is already at work on a new vaccine and that it produced a DNA template on Friday, speculating that it could be ready within 100 days.\nIt is worth noting that Pfizer has been able to create vaccines for previous variants in that timeframe but did not end up having to administer them, as the previously distributed vaccines remained effective.\nBioNTech (BNTX)\nPfizer’s original vaccine partner isn’t missing a beat, either.\nThe German biotech innovatortoldBusiness Insiderthat it is already at work on the development of an adapted vaccine to combat the omicron variant. According to the company’s spokespeople, the first steps of such a process “overlap with the research necessary” to evaluate the necessity of a new shot. This approach should enable its research team to move forward as quickly as possible.\nLike its competitors, BioNTech expects to acquire the data necessary to determine next steps in roughly two weeks, as medical researchers rush to examine new cases. In an attempt to keep the process as efficient as possible, the company is already testing its existing vaccine doses. Like Pfizer, it claims that it will be able to ship out this adapted vaccine within 100 days should it prove necessary.\nLike other vaccine stocks, BNTX is having a good day as speculation regarding the vaccine mounts. Shares are up almost 4% as of this writing. Not unlike its competitor Moderna, BioNTech is up almost 20% for the week after seeing a period of mostly flatlining. Earlier this Summer,InvestorPlace analyst Louis Navelliercalledit a better buy among vaccine stocks than Pfizer.\nJohnson & Johnson (JNJ)\nLike its competitors, Johnson & Johnson is already at work on ways to combat the new variant. Still waiting on further data, though, the company hasstatedit “will progress [its new vaccine] into clinical studies if needed.”\nMathai Mammen, global head of research and development at J&J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals, says that the company remains confident in the “robust humoral and cell-mediated responses” that its original vaccine has elicited in patients to date, giving the company confidence in its ability to adapt its current vaccine to handle the omicron variant.\nMammen added that the company has already begun work on a new vaccine for exactly that purpose and will “rapidly progress into clinical trails” if it is deemed necessary. It has beenreportedthat testing has already begun.\nNovavax (NVAX)\nA later player to the vaccine race, Novavax hasn’t had the same success in the U.S. as Pfizer or Moderna.\nHowever, the company recognizes it has a chance to make up the lost ground. In fact, it is already working to develop a vaccine to combat the omicron variant. Novavax hasstatedthat its vaccine will contain the mutated spikes that have experts worried about the variant, thereby enabling recipients to develop necessary immune responses. Its spokespeople have also stated that the testing and developing of the new vaccine will likely take “a few weeks.”\nWhile Novavax has not filed for approval for its initial Covid-19 in the U.S. yet, it received the green light from regulators in both Indonesia and the Philippines.\nAs InvestorPlace Assistant News Writer Eddie Pan reported this morning, NVAX is a name to watch among vaccine stocks as speculation mounts. While no one is likely to know too much for at least two weeks, companies aren’t wasting any time in building on their vaccine innovations in attempt to pull ahead in the vaccine race. Novavax may not have garnered U.S. authorization yet, but it has risen to prominence by way of its global vaccine distribution work, an edge that earned it ahigh rankingamong second-shot vaccine stocks to buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":624,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":600844252,"gmtCreate":1638142736784,"gmtModify":1638142736784,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573003064152790","idStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"How will it match up to rivals?","listText":"How will it match up to rivals?","text":"How will it match up to rivals?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/600844252","repostId":"1103197941","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103197941","pubTimestamp":1638141915,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1103197941?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-29 07:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fisker unveils ‘world’s most sustainable vehicle’ as electric vehicle competition heats up","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103197941","media":"Yahoo","summary":"It seems among the investor community, all everyone talks about are the EV (electric vehicle) stocks","content":"<p>It seems among the investor community, all everyone talks about are the EV (electric vehicle) stocks - and only the big ones at that - Tesla (TSLA), Rivian (RIVN), and Lucid (LCID).</p>\n<p>One EV company that’s been flying under the radar, that is until it had big news at this year’s Los Angeles Auto show is Fisker Inc (FSR).</p>\n<p>Fisker, founded and run by legendary automotive designer Henrik Fisker, unveiled the production version of its Ocean EV SUV.</p>\n<p>Overall it's a competitive package, penned by Henrik himself, and in top trim form the Ocean is targeting over 350 miles of range from an all-wheel drive, dual motor setup pumping out 540 horsepower.</p>\n<p>While those are noteworthy figures, there are other EVs that can match these figures in that price range (around $65,000 for the higher end Ocean).

They have to be put together exactly at the right time in the right sequence,” Fisker says. “I think most EV startups underestimate that. it has taken the traditional car industry many, many decades to perfect this, and that's what they're really good at.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":229,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":877900584,"gmtCreate":1637852589386,"gmtModify":1637852589386,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573003064152790","idStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"just keep buying!","listText":"just keep buying!","text":"just keep buying!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/877900584","repostId":"2186916023","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2186916023","pubTimestamp":1637848500,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2186916023?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-25 21:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Palantir Be a Trillion-Dollar Stock by 2040?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2186916023","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The data-mining firm has a slim chance of eventually joining the 12-zero club.","content":"<p><b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR) has been a volatile and polarizing investment since its direct listing last September.

That’s why the bullish case for buying in at today’s low prices makes sense.</p><p><b>Longer Term</b></p><p>It’s easy to look at a given company’s stock and judge it by a slide in price or short-term negative news. Yet, when establishing a long-term, buy-and-hold position, it makes sense to consider a company’s performance on a year over year basis.</p><p>And that’s a good place to start to understand why PLTR stock is now an opportune purchase. The company only recently had its IPO in late September, so let’s look at some recent years’ broad metrics for Palantir.</p><p>Revenues, profits and margins are all improving at Palantir over the past few years. Investors shouldn’t get overly concerned that Palantir isn’t the largest defense contractor, or that Palantir has a business concentrated in that specific sector.</p><p>So, back to those revenue, profit, and margin metrics. Palantir’s 2020 revenues hit $1.1 billion, up 47% from 2019 when it recorded $742.6 million in revenues. The company’s gross profit in 2020 was $740.1 million, up from $500.2 million in 2019. That means the gross margin grew from 67% to 68% between 2019 and 2020.</p><p>Honestly, this broad growth is more indicative of a company that makes sense investment-wise. I’d argue that much of the negative sentiment against Palantir is from pundits who simply can’t or won’t see the forest for the trees.</p><p>So, let’s look at the trees clouding their vision.</p><p><b>Naysayers</b></p><p>Anargument I read from priorto Palantir’s IPO stated:</p><blockquote>For investors, the most concerning might be its high customer concentration. Palantir said its top 20 customers accounted for 67% of its 2019 revenue, while its top three customers made up 28%. In fact, a single commercial customer accounted for 12% of its 2019 revenue. Losing any one of those major customers could have a big financial impact on Palantir’s business.</blockquote><p>The argument relies on the idea that Palantir is incapable of maintaining the business relationship that it has forged in the private and public sectors.</p><p>But that doesn’t hold up based on Palantir’syear-end 2020 report.</p><p>Government customer revenue increased by 77% between 2019 and 2020 at Palantir. $234.3 million of that $264.7 million increase was attributable to existing customers. Therefore, 88% of the government revenue increase came from existing contracts. This is a company that is providing services that its clients respect and will pay more for over time, not one in danger of losing customers.</p><p>On the commercial side Palantir saw its revenues grow 22% in the same time frame. $59.7 million (69.9%) of the $85.4 million in revenue growth was from existing clients. Again, satisfied customers is the narrative I see here.</p><p>If Palantir is doing something wrong by expanding their business within the contracts they currently have, then what should they do? Would markets be more impressed if the company were to land clients only not to see their respective businesses grow on an account-by-account basis?</p><p>Show me that Palantir’s business isn’t growing based on revenues, profits or some other meaningful basis and I’d be inclined to be bearish long term. That isn’t the case.</p><p><b>Verdict</b></p><p>Bears are essentially arguing that Palantir keeps ingratiating themselves to those that they provide services for. However, Palantir simply continues to grow those businesses, and that’s somehow a bad thing?</p><p>Seems an odd argument to me.I think PLTR stock prices now are an excellent spot from which to establish a position.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>The Bear Thesis Against Palantir Is Rooted in Illogical Conclusions</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\">\nThe Bear Thesis Against Palantir Is Rooted in Illogical Conclusions\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-14 20:50 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/04/the-bear-thesis-against-pltr-stock-is-rooted-in-illogical-conclusions/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Follow the PLTR stock bull thesis and get in cheap.There’s a lot of negative sentiment surroundingPalantir(NYSE:PLTR) stock.

Yet, when establishing a long-term, buy-and-hold position, it makes sense to consider a company’s performance on a year over year basis.And that’s a good place to start to understand why PLTR stock is now an opportune purchase. The company only recently had its IPO in late September, so let’s look at some recent years’ broad metrics for Palantir.Revenues, profits and margins are all improving at Palantir over the past few years. Investors shouldn’t get overly concerned that Palantir isn’t the largest defense contractor, or that Palantir has a business concentrated in that specific sector.So, back to those revenue, profit, and margin metrics. Palantir’s 2020 revenues hit $1.1 billion, up 47% from 2019 when it recorded $742.6 million in revenues. The company’s gross profit in 2020 was $740.1 million, up from $500.2 million in 2019. That means the gross margin grew from 67% to 68% between 2019 and 2020.Honestly, this broad growth is more indicative of a company that makes sense investment-wise. I’d argue that much of the negative sentiment against Palantir is from pundits who simply can’t or won’t see the forest for the trees.So, let’s look at the trees clouding their vision.NaysayersAnargument I read from priorto Palantir’s IPO stated:For investors, the most concerning might be its high customer concentration. Palantir said its top 20 customers accounted for 67% of its 2019 revenue, while its top three customers made up 28%. In fact, a single commercial customer accounted for 12% of its 2019 revenue. Losing any one of those major customers could have a big financial impact on Palantir’s business.The argument relies on the idea that Palantir is incapable of maintaining the business relationship that it has forged in the private and public sectors.But that doesn’t hold up based on Palantir’syear-end 2020 report.Government customer revenue increased by 77% between 2019 and 2020 at Palantir. $234.3 million of that $264.7 million increase was attributable to existing customers. Therefore, 88% of the government revenue increase came from existing contracts. This is a company that is providing services that its clients respect and will pay more for over time, not one in danger of losing customers.On the commercial side Palantir saw its revenues grow 22% in the same time frame. $59.7 million (69.9%) of the $85.4 million in revenue growth was from existing clients. Again, satisfied customers is the narrative I see here.If Palantir is doing something wrong by expanding their business within the contracts they currently have, then what should they do? Would markets be more impressed if the company were to land clients only not to see their respective businesses grow on an account-by-account basis?Show me that Palantir’s business isn’t growing based on revenues, profits or some other meaningful basis and I’d be inclined to be bearish long term. That isn’t the case.VerdictBears are essentially arguing that Palantir keeps ingratiating themselves to those that they provide services for. However, Palantir simply continues to grow those businesses, and that’s somehow a bad thing?Seems an odd argument to me.I think PLTR stock prices now are an excellent spot from which to establish a position.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":50,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344228861,"gmtCreate":1618411197453,"gmtModify":1634293117285,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573003064152790","idStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"BTWN for the win!","listText":"BTWN for the win!","text":"BTWN for the win!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/344228861","repostId":"1106153811","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106153811","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1618409078,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1106153811?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-14 22:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Some SPACs Could Fail Outright, Research Is Paramount: Cathie Wood","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106153811","media":"Benzinga","summary":"An Ark Investwebinarwas held on April 13.

IV.\nIMAGE SOURCE: LUCID GROUP.\nBYD\nFounded in 1995,BYD(OTC:BYDDY)(OTC:BYDD.F) entered the automobile business in 2003. Apart from automobiles, BYD manufactures mobile handset components, rechargeable batteries, and solar products.Berkshire Hathaway(NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) holds a nearly 8% stake in BYD.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nBYD started as an internal combustion engine vehicle manufacturer. Yet, sensing the broader trend, it has quickly shifted to making electric vehicles. In November, more than 90% of BYD's vehicle deliveries were fully electric or plug-in hybrids. Sales of BYD's fully electric models rose 153% year over year in November.\nThe company has captured roughly 18% of China's EV market. A leading position in the fast-growing, huge potential Chinese EV market places BYD well for long-term growth.\nBYD stock trades at an attractive valuation compared to several top EV stocks right now. All of the above makes this Warren Buffett stock attractive.\nQuantumScape\nBatteries are a key component of electric vehicles. All leading auto and battery companies are focused on making batteries more efficient, which will help enhance an EV's range.QuantumScape(NYSE:QS), which went public in November 2020, is a battery start-up working on the next-generation battery technology.\nCurrently, lithium-ion batteries are used in electric vehicles. QuantumScape is developing lithium-metal solid-state batteries, using a proprietary ceramic separator. The company believes that its batteries will offer greater energy density, longer life, and faster charging than lithium-ion batteries currently in use.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nQuantumScape has the backing of leading automaker Volkswagen(OTC:VWAGY), which has invested $300 million into the battery technology company so far. The two companies have formed a joint venture for a production capacity of 21 gigawatt-hours per year. In September, QuantumScape entered an agreement for 10 megawatt-hours of batteries with another top ten automaker by revenue. The company didn't disclose the name of the automaker. All the above lend credibility to QuantumScape's plans. If successful, QuantumScape's batteries could see immense demand from automakers worldwide.\nQuantumScape believes it is progressing as per its plan to start commercial production in 2024. That's a long time and the company's batteries are not yet developed. Investors should bear the risks in mind before deciding to invest in QuantumScape stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":896,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":605620426,"gmtCreate":1639154224060,"gmtModify":1639154224060,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573003064152790","authorIdStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"great news","listText":"great news","text":"great news","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/605620426","repostId":"1199826178","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199826178","pubTimestamp":1639149380,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199826178?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-10 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hedge Funds Ensnared in Expansive DOJ Probe Into Short Selling","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199826178","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Funds and researchers are scrutinized by Justice Department.

The company's belief in virtual worlds as a major step forward and revolutionary opportunity is so strong that CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his company opted to change the business's name from Facebook to one that reflects its big new growth bet.</p>\n<p>Meta Platforms' incredible resources and massive active user base give the company strong foundations to launch its metaverse projects. Between Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, the company operates some of the world's most popular social media and communications platforms. The company ended its last quarter with 3.6 billion monthly active users -- good for roughly 45% of the world's population.</p>\n<p>In addition to its massive reach and development resources, Meta Platforms has also been an early mover in the metaverse. Even before the term \"metaverse\" entered into the popular lexicon, the company was eyeing virtual reality (VR) as the next revolutionary computing platform. The tech giant's VR division is at the forefront of hardware (through its Oculus headsets) and software in the category, and the company's big acquisitions should help solidify its leadership position in interactive virtual content and services.</p>\n<h2>2. Unity Software</h2>\n<p>Creating immersive virtual worlds is a complex process, but <b>Unity Software</b> (NYSE:U) offers software that can make it much easier. The company provides a development engine for video games and interactive experiences, and it's poised to help usher in the age of the metaverse. With Unity's tools and services, even relatively small teams can craft engaging visuals and worlds that go on to be enjoyed by a wide audience.</p>\n<p>Unity has already emerged as a go-to development engine for the creation of AR (augmented reality) and VR experiences, with roughly 60% of applications in the combined categories using its tools. Roughly 71% of this year's top 1,000 mobile games were also built using the company's development resources.</p>\n<p>Unity managed to grow sales 43% year over year in its most recently reported quarter, particularly impressive because it was lapping a year of explosive growth in 2020. As demand for metaverse content and services increases, Unity looks uniquely well-positioned to help a wide variety of businesses find success in the emerging medium.</p>\n<h2>3. Nvidia</h2>\n<p>Whether through local devices or cloud-based computing platforms, powerful computing hardware is going to play a big role in the evolution of the metaverse. <b>Nvidia</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the leading provider of graphics processing units (GPUs), and the semiconductor specialist will likely be a key components provider for the evolution of virtual worlds.</p>\n<p>In addition to its hardware business, Nvidia is also positioning itself to benefit from the metaverse trend with its Omniverse software platform. Omniverse is a development, productivity, and sharing service tailored for the creation of metaverse experiences, which could turn into a major performance driver for the company.</p>\n<p>Nvidia is already generating very strong margins and looks poised to retain its leadership position in the GPU space. The addition of a substantial software-as-a-service (SaaS) component to its business model could add a major new source of revenue and push its margins even higher.</p>\n<p>Because of long-term growth opportunities for the company's processors in the gaming, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and machine vision fields, the graphics specialist already had a promising outlook, and the rise of the metaverse is presenting another potentially explosive growth opportunity.</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>3 Top Metaverse Stocks to Buy in December</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Metaverse Stocks to Buy in December\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-12 11:36 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/12/11/3-top-metaverse-stocks-to-buy-in-december/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The rise of the metaverse could usher in a new age of commerce and socialization in virtual worlds.

Meta Platforms\nIf you had to pick just one company that appears to be positioning itself to lead the charge on the metaverse, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB) would have to be as strong a choice as any. The company's belief in virtual worlds as a major step forward and revolutionary opportunity is so strong that CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his company opted to change the business's name from Facebook to one that reflects its big new growth bet.\nMeta Platforms' incredible resources and massive active user base give the company strong foundations to launch its metaverse projects. Between Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, the company operates some of the world's most popular social media and communications platforms. The company ended its last quarter with 3.6 billion monthly active users -- good for roughly 45% of the world's population.\nIn addition to its massive reach and development resources, Meta Platforms has also been an early mover in the metaverse. Even before the term \"metaverse\" entered into the popular lexicon, the company was eyeing virtual reality (VR) as the next revolutionary computing platform. The tech giant's VR division is at the forefront of hardware (through its Oculus headsets) and software in the category, and the company's big acquisitions should help solidify its leadership position in interactive virtual content and services.\n2. Unity Software\nCreating immersive virtual worlds is a complex process, but Unity Software (NYSE:U) offers software that can make it much easier. The company provides a development engine for video games and interactive experiences, and it's poised to help usher in the age of the metaverse. With Unity's tools and services, even relatively small teams can craft engaging visuals and worlds that go on to be enjoyed by a wide audience.\nUnity has already emerged as a go-to development engine for the creation of AR (augmented reality) and VR experiences, with roughly 60% of applications in the combined categories using its tools. Roughly 71% of this year's top 1,000 mobile games were also built using the company's development resources.\nUnity managed to grow sales 43% year over year in its most recently reported quarter, particularly impressive because it was lapping a year of explosive growth in 2020. As demand for metaverse content and services increases, Unity looks uniquely well-positioned to help a wide variety of businesses find success in the emerging medium.\n3. Nvidia\nWhether through local devices or cloud-based computing platforms, powerful computing hardware is going to play a big role in the evolution of the metaverse. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the leading provider of graphics processing units (GPUs), and the semiconductor specialist will likely be a key components provider for the evolution of virtual worlds.\nIn addition to its hardware business, Nvidia is also positioning itself to benefit from the metaverse trend with its Omniverse software platform. Omniverse is a development, productivity, and sharing service tailored for the creation of metaverse experiences, which could turn into a major performance driver for the company.\nNvidia is already generating very strong margins and looks poised to retain its leadership position in the GPU space. The addition of a substantial software-as-a-service (SaaS) component to its business model could add a major new source of revenue and push its margins even higher.\nBecause of long-term growth opportunities for the company's processors in the gaming, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and machine vision fields, the graphics specialist already had a promising outlook, and the rise of the metaverse is presenting another potentially explosive growth opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1340,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3583318222987864","authorId":"3583318222987864","name":"TheMilkyWay","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/190d59bcbcc876e15543cbd430d8c1f2","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3583318222987864","authorIdStr":"3583318222987864"},"content":"Have not missed yet, the semi stocks are pulling back now.

By the time shopping began, though, most minds were on another news story. A new Covid-19 variant had been detected in South Africa and it was quickly spreading to Europe. Labeled the omicron variant, this new Covid-19 strain poses a threat to the pandemic recovery story. Perhaps most importantly, we don’t yet know how big that threat is. Scientists haveindicatedthat it will take at least a few weeks for them to assess the effectiveness of vaccines against the new variant, which features multiple mutations. As investors ponder what this means for markets, focus has shifted to one specific question: What does this mean for vaccine stocks?</p>\n<p>Investors have expressed concern at what the the emergence of a new variant may mean for markets. It bears noting, though, that such a scenario creates a new opportunity for vaccine stocks, specifically for a new company to pull into the lead.</p>\n<p>While&nbsp;<b>Pfizer’s</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)&nbsp;success in&nbsp;producing&nbsp;a vaccine approved for children has helped it maintain a lead over its competitors, other companies recognize the need for further innovation within the vaccine space. Scientists and researchers have yet to reach a conclusion as to how the new variant will react to current vaccines, but the companies producing them are already working around the clock.</p>\n<p>Many vaccine stocks were trending this morning as the omicron variant dominated news coverage. Let’s take a look at what the most prominent vaccine producers are saying and when we can expect to see progress.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Moderna</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>BioNTech</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>BNTX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson</b>(NYSE:<b><u>JNJ</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Novavax</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NVAX</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Moderna (MRNA)</b></p>\n<p>Moderna was one of the first companies to have its executive team discuss address the omicron variant.</p>\n<p>On Sunday, CMO Paul Burton spoke to<i>BBC’s</i>Andrew Marr and said Moderna was hoping to see clinical trials of an omicron-specific booster begin within60 to 90 days. CEO Stephane Bancel recentlyspoketo<i>CNBC’s</i>“Squawk Box” on the topic of an omicron- targeting vaccine. While he stated that it will likely take months for the company to develop, produce and ship a vaccine with the ability to target that specific variant, he noted that a booster shot containing a higher 100-microgram dose could be made available much sooner.</p>\n<p>Bancel also floated the possibility of administering higher doses of the current vaccines to particularly high-risk patients, such as those in the elderly or immunocompromised categories.</p>\n<p>This talk of an effective booster that could take on the new variant has sent MRNA stock shooting up today. As of this writing, vaccine stocks are having a good day and Moderna has risen by more than 10%. Today’s gains have put it up by more than 30% for the past five days.</p>\n<p>While&nbsp;the head of drugmaker Moderna said COVID-19 vaccines are unlikely to be as effective against the Omicron variant of the coronavirus as they have been previously, sparking fresh worry in financial markets about the trajectory of the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"There is no world, I think, where (the effectiveness) is the same level . . . we had with Delta,\" Moderna Chief Executive Stéphane Bancel told the Financial Times&nbsp;in an interview.</p>\n<p>\"I think it's going to be a material drop. I just don't know how much because we need to wait for the data. But all the scientists I've talked to . . . are like 'this is not going to be good.'\"</p>\n<p><b>Pfizer (PFE)</b></p>\n<p>No pharmaceutical company has received as much positive press for its vaccine innovations as Pfizer. Earlier this month, CEO Albert Bourla wasrecommended by one&nbsp;<i>InvestorPlace</i>&nbsp;contributorfor CEO of the year.</p>\n<p>The industry leader alsodiscussedthe new variant earlier today, stating that he believed that Pfizer’s Covid-19 pill would prove effective against it. He noted that the treatment method was designed with the thought process that most virus mutations were coming in spikes, exactly what we are seeing so far from the omicron variant. This gives him, he said, a “very high level of confidence” that the oral treatment, Paxlovid, will prove well-suited to help patients with the new Covid-19 strain.</p>\n<p>Clinical trials have found that when Paxlovid is taken with HIV drug ritonavir, it reduces hospitalization and death by 89% if taken within three days after symptoms have begun.</p>\n<p>While Bourla is still not able to offer much on the effectiveness of the company’s two-dose vaccine against the new variant, he experts it to offer at least some protection. He also said that Pfizer is already at work on a new vaccine and that it produced a DNA template on Friday, speculating that it could be ready within 100 days.</p>\n<p>It is worth noting that Pfizer has been able to create vaccines for previous variants in that timeframe but did not end up having to administer them, as the previously distributed vaccines remained effective.</p>\n<p><b>BioNTech (BNTX)</b></p>\n<p>Pfizer’s original vaccine partner isn’t missing a beat, either.</p>\n<p>The German biotech innovatortold<i>Business Insider</i>that it is already at work on the development of an adapted vaccine to combat the omicron variant. According to the company’s spokespeople, the first steps of such a process “overlap with the research necessary” to evaluate the necessity of a new shot. This approach should enable its research team to move forward as quickly as possible.</p>\n<p>Like its competitors, BioNTech expects to acquire the data necessary to determine next steps in roughly two weeks, as medical researchers rush to examine new cases. In an attempt to keep the process as efficient as possible, the company is already testing its existing vaccine doses. Like Pfizer, it claims that it will be able to ship out this adapted vaccine within 100 days should it prove necessary.</p>\n<p>Like other vaccine stocks, BNTX is having a good day as speculation regarding the vaccine mounts. Shares are up almost 4% as of this writing. Not unlike its competitor Moderna, BioNTech is up almost 20% for the week after seeing a period of mostly flatlining. Earlier this Summer,<i>InvestorPlace</i>&nbsp;analyst Louis Navelliercalledit a better buy among vaccine stocks than Pfizer.</p>\n<p><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)</b></p>\n<p>Like its competitors, Johnson &amp; Johnson is already at work on ways to combat the new variant. Still waiting on further data, though, the company hasstatedit “will progress [its new vaccine] into clinical studies if needed.”</p>\n<p>Mathai Mammen, global head of research and development at J&amp;J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals, says that the company remains confident in the “robust humoral and cell-mediated responses” that its original vaccine has elicited in patients to date, giving the company confidence in its ability to adapt its current vaccine to handle the omicron variant.</p>\n<p>Mammen added that the company has already begun work on a new vaccine for exactly that purpose and will “rapidly progress into clinical trails” if it is deemed necessary. It has beenreportedthat testing has already begun.</p>\n<p><b>Novavax (NVAX)</b></p>\n<p>A later player to the vaccine race, Novavax hasn’t had the same success in the U.S. as Pfizer or Moderna.</p>\n<p>However, the company recognizes it has a chance to make up the lost ground. In fact, it is already working to develop a vaccine to combat the omicron variant. Novavax hasstatedthat its vaccine will contain the mutated spikes that have experts worried about the variant, thereby enabling recipients to develop necessary immune responses. Its spokespeople have also stated that the testing and developing of the new vaccine will likely take “a few weeks.”</p>\n<p>While Novavax has not filed for approval for its initial Covid-19 in the U.S. yet, it received the green light from regulators in both Indonesia and the Philippines.</p>\n<p>As&nbsp;<i>InvestorPlace</i>&nbsp;Assistant News Writer&nbsp;Eddie Pan&nbsp;reported&nbsp;this morning, NVAX is a name to watch among vaccine stocks as speculation mounts. While no one is likely to know too much for at least two weeks, companies aren’t wasting any time in building on their vaccine innovations in attempt to pull ahead in the vaccine race. Novavax may not have garnered U.S. authorization yet, but it has risen to prominence by way of its global vaccine distribution work, an edge that earned it ahigh rankingamong second-shot vaccine stocks to buy.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>5 Vaccine Stocks to Watch as New Covid-19 Variant Strikes the Market</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\">\n5 Vaccine Stocks to Watch as New Covid-19 Variant Strikes the Market\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-30 11:19 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/11/5-vaccine-stocks-to-watch-as-new-covid-19-variant-strikes-the-market/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Here are the stocks to watch as the omicron variant gives rise to a new vaccine race\nSource: Shutterstock\nAs Black Friday approached, most investors were speculating on what the supply chain crisis ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/11/5-vaccine-stocks-to-watch-as-new-covid-19-variant-strikes-the-market/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BNTX":"BioNTech SE","MRNA":"Moderna, Inc.","NVAX":"诺瓦瓦克斯医药","JNJ":"强生","PFE":"辉瑞"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/11/5-vaccine-stocks-to-watch-as-new-covid-19-variant-strikes-the-market/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1190156196","content_text":"Here are the stocks to watch as the omicron variant gives rise to a new vaccine race\nSource: Shutterstock\nAs Black Friday approached, most investors were speculating on what the supply chain crisis would mean for the year’s biggest shopping holiday.

It bears noting, though, that such a scenario creates a new opportunity for vaccine stocks, specifically for a new company to pull into the lead.\nWhile Pfizer’s(NYSE:PFE) success in producing a vaccine approved for children has helped it maintain a lead over its competitors, other companies recognize the need for further innovation within the vaccine space. Scientists and researchers have yet to reach a conclusion as to how the new variant will react to current vaccines, but the companies producing them are already working around the clock.\nMany vaccine stocks were trending this morning as the omicron variant dominated news coverage. Let’s take a look at what the most prominent vaccine producers are saying and when we can expect to see progress.\n\nModerna(NASDAQ:MRNA)\nPfizer(NYSE:PFE)\nBioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX)\nJohnson & Johnson(NYSE:JNJ)\nNovavax(NASDAQ:NVAX)\n\nModerna (MRNA)\nModerna was one of the first companies to have its executive team discuss address the omicron variant.\nOn Sunday, CMO Paul Burton spoke toBBC’sAndrew Marr and said Moderna was hoping to see clinical trials of an omicron-specific booster begin within60 to 90 days. CEO Stephane Bancel recentlyspoketoCNBC’s“Squawk Box” on the topic of an omicron- targeting vaccine. While he stated that it will likely take months for the company to develop, produce and ship a vaccine with the ability to target that specific variant, he noted that a booster shot containing a higher 100-microgram dose could be made available much sooner.\nBancel also floated the possibility of administering higher doses of the current vaccines to particularly high-risk patients, such as those in the elderly or immunocompromised categories.\nThis talk of an effective booster that could take on the new variant has sent MRNA stock shooting up today. As of this writing, vaccine stocks are having a good day and Moderna has risen by more than 10%. Today’s gains have put it up by more than 30% for the past five days.\nWhile the head of drugmaker Moderna said COVID-19 vaccines are unlikely to be as effective against the Omicron variant of the coronavirus as they have been previously, sparking fresh worry in financial markets about the trajectory of the pandemic.\n\"There is no world, I think, where (the effectiveness) is the same level . . . we had with Delta,\" Moderna Chief Executive Stéphane Bancel told the Financial Times in an interview.\n\"I think it's going to be a material drop. I just don't know how much because we need to wait for the data. But all the scientists I've talked to . . . are like 'this is not going to be good.'\"\nPfizer (PFE)\nNo pharmaceutical company has received as much positive press for its vaccine innovations as Pfizer. Earlier this month, CEO Albert Bourla wasrecommended by one InvestorPlace contributorfor CEO of the year.\nThe industry leader alsodiscussedthe new variant earlier today, stating that he believed that Pfizer’s Covid-19 pill would prove effective against it. He noted that the treatment method was designed with the thought process that most virus mutations were coming in spikes, exactly what we are seeing so far from the omicron variant. This gives him, he said, a “very high level of confidence” that the oral treatment, Paxlovid, will prove well-suited to help patients with the new Covid-19 strain.\nClinical trials have found that when Paxlovid is taken with HIV drug ritonavir, it reduces hospitalization and death by 89% if taken within three days after symptoms have begun.\nWhile Bourla is still not able to offer much on the effectiveness of the company’s two-dose vaccine against the new variant, he experts it to offer at least some protection. He also said that Pfizer is already at work on a new vaccine and that it produced a DNA template on Friday, speculating that it could be ready within 100 days.\nIt is worth noting that Pfizer has been able to create vaccines for previous variants in that timeframe but did not end up having to administer them, as the previously distributed vaccines remained effective.\nBioNTech (BNTX)\nPfizer’s original vaccine partner isn’t missing a beat, either.\nThe German biotech innovatortoldBusiness Insiderthat it is already at work on the development of an adapted vaccine to combat the omicron variant. According to the company’s spokespeople, the first steps of such a process “overlap with the research necessary” to evaluate the necessity of a new shot. This approach should enable its research team to move forward as quickly as possible.\nLike its competitors, BioNTech expects to acquire the data necessary to determine next steps in roughly two weeks, as medical researchers rush to examine new cases. In an attempt to keep the process as efficient as possible, the company is already testing its existing vaccine doses. Like Pfizer, it claims that it will be able to ship out this adapted vaccine within 100 days should it prove necessary.\nLike other vaccine stocks, BNTX is having a good day as speculation regarding the vaccine mounts. Shares are up almost 4% as of this writing. Not unlike its competitor Moderna, BioNTech is up almost 20% for the week after seeing a period of mostly flatlining. Earlier this Summer,InvestorPlace analyst Louis Navelliercalledit a better buy among vaccine stocks than Pfizer.\nJohnson & Johnson (JNJ)\nLike its competitors, Johnson & Johnson is already at work on ways to combat the new variant. Still waiting on further data, though, the company hasstatedit “will progress [its new vaccine] into clinical studies if needed.”\nMathai Mammen, global head of research and development at J&J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals, says that the company remains confident in the “robust humoral and cell-mediated responses” that its original vaccine has elicited in patients to date, giving the company confidence in its ability to adapt its current vaccine to handle the omicron variant.\nMammen added that the company has already begun work on a new vaccine for exactly that purpose and will “rapidly progress into clinical trails” if it is deemed necessary. It has beenreportedthat testing has already begun.\nNovavax (NVAX)\nA later player to the vaccine race, Novavax hasn’t had the same success in the U.S. as Pfizer or Moderna.\nHowever, the company recognizes it has a chance to make up the lost ground. In fact, it is already working to develop a vaccine to combat the omicron variant. Novavax hasstatedthat its vaccine will contain the mutated spikes that have experts worried about the variant, thereby enabling recipients to develop necessary immune responses. Its spokespeople have also stated that the testing and developing of the new vaccine will likely take “a few weeks.”\nWhile Novavax has not filed for approval for its initial Covid-19 in the U.S. yet, it received the green light from regulators in both Indonesia and the Philippines.\nAs InvestorPlace Assistant News Writer Eddie Pan reported this morning, NVAX is a name to watch among vaccine stocks as speculation mounts. While no one is likely to know too much for at least two weeks, companies aren’t wasting any time in building on their vaccine innovations in attempt to pull ahead in the vaccine race. Novavax may not have garnered U.S. authorization yet, but it has risen to prominence by way of its global vaccine distribution work, an edge that earned it ahigh rankingamong second-shot vaccine stocks to buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":624,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":609239848,"gmtCreate":1638284771792,"gmtModify":1638284771792,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573003064152790","authorIdStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Get ARCT.

The bulls claimed its data-mining platforms would continue to grow as it signed more government and enterprise contracts.</p>\n<p>The bears pointed out that Palantir was too heavily dependent on government clients, its enterprise business faced too many competitors, it was deeply unprofitable, and its stock was too expensive.</p>\n<p>Palantir's stock price has experienced some wild swings over the past year, but it has still more than doubled since its first trade at $10 per share.</p>\n<p>Today, Palantir is valued at $41.3 billion, or 27 times this year's sales. The bears will argue that the high price-to-sales (P/S) ratio will limit its upside, especially as rising interest rates and inflation make many high-growth tech stocks less attractive.</p>\n<p>But let's look beyond the near-term noise and see if Palantir can still generate big multibagger gains, or even become a trillion-dollar stock, over the next two decades.</p>\n<h2>How fast is Palantir growing?</h2>\n<p>Palantir expects to grow its revenue by at least 30% annually between fiscal 2021 and 2025. That forecast implies its revenue will rise from its target of $1.5 billion this year to at least $4.3 billion in 2025.</p>\n<p>The company expects that growth to be driven by its new and expanded contracts with government agencies, as well as the growth of its Foundry platform for large commercial customers. The accelerating growth of its commercial business over the past year, which notably outpaced the growth of its government business last quarter, supports that thesis.</p>\n<h2>Palantir's path toward a trillion-dollar market cap</h2>\n<p>Palantir hasn't provided any longer-term targets beyond 2025. But based on the growth trajectory of other big data companies like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a> </b>(NYSE:CRM), its annual revenue increase could potentially decelerate and stabilize at about 20% over the following 10 years.</p>\n<p>If it hits its target for 2025, then continues to grow its revenue at an average rate of 20% over the following 10 years, it could generate nearly $27 billion in revenue in 2035.</p>\n<p>If Palantir's revenue growth then slows down to 15% per year, which would be more comparable to <b>Microsoft</b>'s (NASDAQ:MSFT) current rate, it could generate over $53 billion in revenue in 2040.</p>\n<p>Assuming the company is still valued at over 20 times sales, its market cap could surpass $1 trillion. But most tech giants that grow their revenue 15% to 25% annually aren't valued at more than 20 times sales.</p>\n<p>Microsoft, which is expected to generate 17% sales growth this year, trades at 13 times that estimate. Salesforce, which is expected to generate 24% sales growth this year, trades at just 11 times this year's sales.</p>\n<p>Therefore, Palantir's market cap could potentially hit $1 trillion by 2040, but it seems highly unlikely. Instead, it will likely be closer to $500 billion (which would still be a 12-bagger gain from its current valuation) if its stock is trading at a more reasonable P/S ratio of 10.</p>\n<h2>Look beyond the market caps</h2>\n<p>Instead of focusing on Palantir's path toward joining the 12-zero club, investors should focus on its ability to generate sustainable growth.</p>\n<p>The company has gained a firm foothold with the U.S. government, but it still faces competition from internally developed systems. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), for example, has been developing its own platform to replace Palantir's Falcon. If other agencies follow ICE's lead, the company's dream of becoming the \"default operating system for data across the U.S. government\" could abruptly end.</p>\n<p>Palantir is making solid progress in the commercial market, but its Foundry platform still faces plenty of indirect competitors like <b>C3.ai</b>, <b>Salesforce</b>'s Tableau, and Glue from <b>Amazon</b> Web Services.</p>\n<p>The company likely believes its reputation as a battle-hardened platform for the U.S. military and government agencies will attract more enterprise customers.

The bulls claimed its data-mining platforms would continue to grow as it signed more government and enterprise contracts.\nThe bears pointed out that Palantir was too heavily dependent on government clients, its enterprise business faced too many competitors, it was deeply unprofitable, and its stock was too expensive.\nPalantir's stock price has experienced some wild swings over the past year, but it has still more than doubled since its first trade at $10 per share.\nToday, Palantir is valued at $41.3 billion, or 27 times this year's sales. The bears will argue that the high price-to-sales (P/S) ratio will limit its upside, especially as rising interest rates and inflation make many high-growth tech stocks less attractive.\nBut let's look beyond the near-term noise and see if Palantir can still generate big multibagger gains, or even become a trillion-dollar stock, over the next two decades.\nHow fast is Palantir growing?\nPalantir expects to grow its revenue by at least 30% annually between fiscal 2021 and 2025. That forecast implies its revenue will rise from its target of $1.5 billion this year to at least $4.3 billion in 2025.\nThe company expects that growth to be driven by its new and expanded contracts with government agencies, as well as the growth of its Foundry platform for large commercial customers. The accelerating growth of its commercial business over the past year, which notably outpaced the growth of its government business last quarter, supports that thesis.\nPalantir's path toward a trillion-dollar market cap\nPalantir hasn't provided any longer-term targets beyond 2025. But based on the growth trajectory of other big data companies like Salesforce (NYSE:CRM), its annual revenue increase could potentially decelerate and stabilize at about 20% over the following 10 years.\nIf it hits its target for 2025, then continues to grow its revenue at an average rate of 20% over the following 10 years, it could generate nearly $27 billion in revenue in 2035.\nIf Palantir's revenue growth then slows down to 15% per year, which would be more comparable to Microsoft's (NASDAQ:MSFT) current rate, it could generate over $53 billion in revenue in 2040.\nAssuming the company is still valued at over 20 times sales, its market cap could surpass $1 trillion. But most tech giants that grow their revenue 15% to 25% annually aren't valued at more than 20 times sales.\nMicrosoft, which is expected to generate 17% sales growth this year, trades at 13 times that estimate. Salesforce, which is expected to generate 24% sales growth this year, trades at just 11 times this year's sales.\nTherefore, Palantir's market cap could potentially hit $1 trillion by 2040, but it seems highly unlikely. Instead, it will likely be closer to $500 billion (which would still be a 12-bagger gain from its current valuation) if its stock is trading at a more reasonable P/S ratio of 10.\nLook beyond the market caps\nInstead of focusing on Palantir's path toward joining the 12-zero club, investors should focus on its ability to generate sustainable growth.\nThe company has gained a firm foothold with the U.S. government, but it still faces competition from internally developed systems. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), for example, has been developing its own platform to replace Palantir's Falcon. If other agencies follow ICE's lead, the company's dream of becoming the \"default operating system for data across the U.S. government\" could abruptly end.\nPalantir is making solid progress in the commercial market, but its Foundry platform still faces plenty of indirect competitors like C3.ai, Salesforce's Tableau, and Glue from Amazon Web Services.\nThe company likely believes its reputation as a battle-hardened platform for the U.S. military and government agencies will attract more enterprise customers. But there's no guarantee that this appeal will last for decades or fend off newer, hungrier, and more disruptive players in the data-mining market.\nIs Palantir's stock still worth buying?\nI still believe Palantir's stock is a promising long-term investment on the secular growth of the data-mining and analytics market. However, there's a lot of growth already baked into the stock, and its high valuations could limit its near-term and long-term potential. Palantir probably won't hit a trillion-dollar valuation within the next two decades, but it could still outperform the market and generate impressive multibagger gains.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":600844252,"gmtCreate":1638142736784,"gmtModify":1638142736784,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573003064152790","authorIdStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"How will it match up to rivals?","listText":"How will it match up to rivals?","text":"How will it match up to rivals?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/600844252","repostId":"1103197941","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103197941","pubTimestamp":1638141915,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1103197941?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-29 07:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fisker unveils ‘world’s most sustainable vehicle’ as electric vehicle competition heats up","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103197941","media":"Yahoo","summary":"It seems among the investor community, all everyone talks about are the EV (electric vehicle) stocks","content":"<p>It seems among the investor community, all everyone talks about are the EV (electric vehicle) stocks - and only the big ones at that - Tesla (TSLA), Rivian (RIVN), and Lucid (LCID).</p>\n<p>One EV company that’s been flying under the radar, that is until it had big news at this year’s Los Angeles Auto show is Fisker Inc (FSR).</p>\n<p>Fisker, founded and run by legendary automotive designer Henrik Fisker, unveiled the production version of its Ocean EV SUV.</p>\n<p>Overall it's a competitive package, penned by Henrik himself, and in top trim form the Ocean is targeting over 350 miles of range from an all-wheel drive, dual motor setup pumping out 540 horsepower.</p>\n<p>While those are noteworthy figures, there are other EVs that can match these figures in that price range (around $65,000 for the higher end Ocean).

A good number of headlines will imply that the company hasn’t done well, or is suddenly at risk of implosion.</p><p>Yet, when you dig into the numbers and strategy, Palantir looks like a strong company underpinned by growth. The argument against Palantir usually centers around its controversial nature and the concentration of its business. Palantir’s controversial nature is largely subjective of course.</p><p>What I see when I dig into Palantir is a company that is improving and somewhat misunderstood. That’s why the bullish case for buying in at today’s low prices makes sense.</p><p><b>Longer Term</b></p><p>It’s easy to look at a given company’s stock and judge it by a slide in price or short-term negative news. Yet, when establishing a long-term, buy-and-hold position, it makes sense to consider a company’s performance on a year over year basis.</p><p>And that’s a good place to start to understand why PLTR stock is now an opportune purchase. The company only recently had its IPO in late September, so let’s look at some recent years’ broad metrics for Palantir.</p><p>Revenues, profits and margins are all improving at Palantir over the past few years.

A good number of headlines will imply that the company hasn’t done well, or is suddenly at risk of implosion.Yet, when you dig into the numbers and strategy, Palantir looks like a strong company underpinned by growth. The argument against Palantir usually centers around its controversial nature and the concentration of its business. Palantir’s controversial nature is largely subjective of course.What I see when I dig into Palantir is a company that is improving and somewhat misunderstood. That’s why the bullish case for buying in at today’s low prices makes sense.Longer TermIt’s easy to look at a given company’s stock and judge it by a slide in price or short-term negative news. Yet, when establishing a long-term, buy-and-hold position, it makes sense to consider a company’s performance on a year over year basis.And that’s a good place to start to understand why PLTR stock is now an opportune purchase. The company only recently had its IPO in late September, so let’s look at some recent years’ broad metrics for Palantir.Revenues, profits and margins are all improving at Palantir over the past few years. Investors shouldn’t get overly concerned that Palantir isn’t the largest defense contractor, or that Palantir has a business concentrated in that specific sector.So, back to those revenue, profit, and margin metrics. Palantir’s 2020 revenues hit $1.1 billion, up 47% from 2019 when it recorded $742.6 million in revenues. The company’s gross profit in 2020 was $740.1 million, up from $500.2 million in 2019. That means the gross margin grew from 67% to 68% between 2019 and 2020.Honestly, this broad growth is more indicative of a company that makes sense investment-wise.

Data from its final analysis of the trial disclosed on Tuesday includes an additional 1,000 people.\nNobody in the trial who received the Pfizer treatment died, compared with 12 deaths among placebo recipients.\nThe Pfizer pills are taken with the older antiviral ritonavir every 12 hours for five days beginning shortly after onset of symptoms. If authorized, the treatment will be sold as Paxlovid.\n\"It's a stunning outcome,\" Pfizer Chief Scientific Officer Mikael Dolsten said in an interview.\n\"We're talking about a staggering number of lives saved and hospitalizations prevented. And of course, if you deploy this quickly after infection, we are likely to reduce transmission dramatically,\" Dolsten said.\nPfizer also released early data from a second study suggesting that the treatment reduced hospitalizations by around 70% in a smaller trial of standard-risk adults, including some higher-risk vaccinated people.\nPfizer said those results showed a positive trend, but were not statistically significant. They are following the results and plan to release data from the final 20% of participants in the 1,100-patient trial. The trial did not show that the drug alleviated symptoms of COVID-19 in that population.\nDolsten said he expects authorization for use in high-risk individuals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory agencies soon. He does not believe an FDA advisory panel meeting will be needed.\n\"We're in very advanced regulatory dialogues with both Europe and the UK, and we have dialogues with most of the major regulatory agencies globally,\" Dolsten said.\n'VERY EXCITING RESULTS'\nPfizer submitted data to the FDA last month, asking for emergency use authorization (EUA) of the drug.\nPaxlovid, a Pfizer's coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pill, is seen manufactured in Ascoli, Italy, in this undated handout photo obtained by Reuters on November 16, 2021. Pfizer/Handout via REUTERS\n\"These are very exciting results,\" said Dr. Paul Sax, a professor at Harvard Medical School.\nSax said the FDA should try to accelerate the authorization process as much as possible, noting there are very limited treatment options for high-risk people outside of the hospital.\nThere are currently no oral antiviral treatments for COVID-9 authorized in the United States.\nAnalysts on average forecast 2022 revenue of more than $24 billion from the pill, which would more than make up for any decline in vaccine sales after 2021.\nRival Merck & Co has asked for an EUA for its antiviral pill molnupiravir. But that drug only reduced hospitalizations and deaths in its clinical trial of high-risk patients by around 30%.\nSome scientists have also raised safety concerns about the potential for birth defects from the Merck drug, as well as worries that it could cause the virus to mutate.\nPfizer's treatment works differently. It is part of a class of drugs called protease inhibitors currently used to treat HIV, hepatitis C and other viruses.\nRecent laboratory testing showed that activity against the protease of the Omicron variant is as \"good as basically any SARS-COV-2 variant of concern,\" Dolsten said.\nThe company has said it can have 180,000 treatment courses ready to ship this year and plans to produce at least 80 million more in 2022.\nDolsten said Pfizer is looking to expand that output further as new variants, like the newly-discovered Omicron, could push the need for antivirals substantially higher. Current vaccines appear to be less effective at preventing infection with Omicron.\nPfizer, which makes one of the leading COVID-19 vaccines with German partner BioNTech , has agreed to allow generic manufacturers to supply versions of the drug to 95 low- and middle-income countries through a licensing agreement with international public health group Medicines Patent Pool (MPP). However, Dolsten said that for next year he expects the drug will be mainly produced by Pfizer.\nThe MPP told Reuters in a statement, that it will be \"well into next year\" before pills produced by generic manufacturers under its licenses will be ready for use.\nThe U.S. government has already secured 10 million courses of the Pfizer treatment for $5.29 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":819,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":604411980,"gmtCreate":1639438187676,"gmtModify":1639438272899,"author":{"id":"3573003064152790","authorId":"3573003064152790","name":"EthanOng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a1dbd6c23a4169340f08265e0a807f9","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573003064152790","authorIdStr":"3573003064152790"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤦‍♂️","listText":"🤦‍♂️","text":"🤦‍♂️","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/604411980","repostId":"1180743412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1180743412","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":1639408228,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1180743412?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-13 23:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Trump stocks slid sharply in morning trading ,with DWAC and Phunware falling over 5%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1180743412","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Trump stocks slid sharply in morning trading ,with DWAC and Phunware falling over 5%.","content":"<p>Trump stocks slid sharply in morning trading ,with DWAC and Phunware falling over 5%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8c494e3841010c65a07f05aaacf0d443\" tg-width=\"772\" tg-height=\"573\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
