Despite the quickest drawdown of at least 30% in the broad-based <b>S&amp;P 500</b>'s storied history last year, investors who trusted in their investment theses have been handsomely rewarded. Over the trailing year, 910 stocks with a market cap of at least $300 million have doubled in value, with 62 of those stocks up by more than 500%.</p>\n<p>While it's great to see the U.S. economy getting back on track, some of the most popular stocks investors are buying are downright awful businesses. Even with things looking up for the market as a whole, the following five ultra-popular stocks should be avoided like the plague in June.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b2e6f5c48ac79126a7c69a95b9659ed\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"484\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>AMC Entertainment</h2>\n<p>There's absolutely no question that the No. 1 stock to avoid like the plague in June is movie theater chain <b>AMC Entertainment</b> (NYSE:AMC). It's far and away the most disassociated stock from its underlying business.</p>\n<p>As most folks probably know by now, retail traders from Reddit, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a></b>, and other social media platforms have banded together to buy shares and call options in AMC, which is a fairly heavily short-sold stock. Their goal being to effect a short squeeze -- i.e., an event where pessimists (short-sellers) feel trapped in their positions and run for the exit at once. Short squeezes are very short-term events and they have a very poor track record of success.</p>\n<p>While I have a laundry list of issues with the basis for this trade, perhaps the single biggest is that retail traders are willingly ignoring AMC's dumpster fire of an income statement and balance sheet. This is a company that almost certainly won't be capable of paying back its debts when they come due by or before 2026. It's also now been hamstrung by the same retail investors who claimed to want to \"save AMC.\" That's because AMC has maxed out how many shares it's authorized to issue, and can therefore not take advantage of higher prices with a capital raise. The May proxy vote would have allowed AMC to take advantage of this recent spike, but shortsightedness from retail traders killed that idea.</p>\n<p>The AMC bull thesis is also built on a monument of misinformation. For example, retail traders believe hedge funds can bankrupt companies, when it's the operating performance and actions of businesses that determine whether or not they succeed or fail.</p>\n<p>Suffice it to say, the willful ignorance of concrete data in AMC's income statements and balance sheets will come back to haunt these traders.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9b574bce2f4c87731881bf278bde1070\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Marathon Digital Holdings</h2>\n<p>June would also be a very good time to say goodbye to a number <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) stocks. Cryptocurrency miner <b>Marathon Digital Holdings</b> (NASDAQ:MARA) may well top that list.</p>\n<p>As I've been previously stated, I'm not a fan of Bitcoin. Although it's the largest digital currency in the world by market value, it's been stuck at handling a meager 300,000 transactions daily for more than a year and is accepted by approximately 15,200 businesses worldwide. That's nothing when you consider that there an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs around the globe.</p>\n<p>Bitcoin is also prone to long-winded downtrends. Over the past decade, the top cryptocurrency has lost at least 80% of its value on three separate occasions. That's bad news for Marathon for two key reasons. First, Marathon Digital mines Bitcoin, and is therefore reliant on higher prices to increase its revenue. It's not even clear if Marathon's mining operations would be sustainable if Bitcoin, once again, declines by more than 80% from its high of nearly $65,000.</p>\n<p>The other issue is that Marathon purchased $150 million in Bitcoin earlier this year. While still up slightly on its investment, a protracted move lower in Bitcoin threatens to wipe out a good chunk of Marathon Digital's assets.</p>\n<p>I've said it before and I'll say it again: Crypto mining stocks are the worst way to invest in Bitcoin.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/084d89ada48e3614d1b0f7ca9fd0aa9c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Sundial Growers</h2>\n<p>Following its late-May rally, <b>Sundial Growers</b> (NASDAQ:SNDL) has once more emerged as the top marijuana stock to avoid, as well as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the worst stocks to buy, as a whole.</p>\n<p>While marijuana is an intriguing place to put your money to work over the next five to 10 years, Canadian pot stock Sundial has consistently underperformed its peers and done nothing to build shareholder value.</p>\n<p>In an effort to rid its balance sheet of debt, the company's management team began selling stock in October 2020... and it just hasn't stopped. Sundial has built up a cash hoard of 1.08 billion Canadian (about $894 million U.S.), but has done so by issuing more than 1.35 billion shares of stock in eight months. As of May 7, the company had 1.86 billion shares outstanding -- and this figure is likely to go higher with an $800 million at-the-market share offering approved earlier this year. Sundial is building up cash with no particular purpose in mind and drowning its shareholders in the process.</p>\n<p>With 1.86 billion shares outstanding, Sundial has virtually no chance of ever producing meaningful earnings per share, and it may not be able to get back above $1 per share on a consistent basis. It'll likely have to follow in the footsteps of serial diluter <b>Aurora Cannabis</b>&nbsp;and reverse split to get its share price to a respectable level.</p>\n<p>As the icing on the cake, legal pot sales in Canada have grown significantly, while Sundial's marijuana sales have been slashed by a double-digit percentage. It's not where you want to put your money to work in the high-growth cannabis space.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d8206c20bde46bd072cf7ee8a50b2c5\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"463\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Castor Maritime</h2>\n<p>As a general rule, penny stocks are penny stocks for a good reason. A company that consistently has a very low share price probably has an untested operating model, is losing money, and isn't creating value for its shareholders. This pretty much sums up <b>Castor Maritime </b>(NASDAQ:CTRM).</p>\n<p>On paper, the operating model doesn't sound awful. Castor buys vessels capable of transporting dry bulk goods, such as grains, fertilizer, sugar, and steel. If the U.S. and global economy are rebounding from their pandemic lows, demand for dry bulk goods and daily charter rates should increase over time. Pretty straightforward, right?</p>\n<p>The problem is that Castor Maritime didn't have the fleet or the finances to take advantage of this rebound. To compensate, it's been selling shares of its stock like it's going out of style to raise capital to buy new vessels. Castor ended 2020 with six ships but it now owns 26, when all are fully delivered. But it's the company's shareholders who paid the price for this shopping spree. Castor's share count has risen from 3.3 million shares on Dec. 31, 2019 to about 900 million (both figures are pre-split).</p>\n<p>However, last month the company had to enact a 1-for-10 reverse split to simply remain listed on the <b>Nasdaq</b>&nbsp;exchange. Issuing so many shares pushed Castor's share price below $0.40, and a $1 minimum share price is required for continued listing.</p>\n<p>We've witnessed this same dilute and reverse-split story time and again in the shipping space. Castor is no different, which is why it should be avoided.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F629029%2Ffather-son-video-game-controller-console-gamestop-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>GameStop</h2>\n<p>Since we began with a Reddit pump-and-dump stock (AMC), it's only fitting that we end with another hype-driven Reddit stock: video game and accessories retailer <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME).</p>\n<p>Retail traders have flocked to GameStop for the exact same reason as AMC. GameStop had a larger percentage of its float held short than any other publicly traded company in January. This made it the ideal candidate for a short squeeze. Unfortunately, it's also spurred retail investors to now hone in on short interest data and absolutely nothing else about the companies they're buying.</p>\n<p>To be clear, GameStop is a much, <i>much</i> better and more financially sound company than AMC. A recent share offering helped raise $551 million in gross proceeds, which means GameStop has wiped out its debt and has more than enough cash to move forward with its digital transformation. In fact, all of these avoidable stocks are likely OK on the liquidity front for the next three to five years... except AMC.</p>\n<p>Where GameStop gets into trouble is if you dig into its operating performance. It's always been a brick-and-mortar-focused company. This worked well for two decades, but is problematic now that gaming has gone digital.

Despite the quickest drawdown of at least 30% in the broad-based S&P 500's storied history last year, investors who trusted in their investment theses have been handsomely rewarded. Over the trailing year, 910 stocks with a market cap of at least $300 million have doubled in value, with 62 of those stocks up by more than 500%.\nWhile it's great to see the U.S. economy getting back on track, some of the most popular stocks investors are buying are downright awful businesses. Even with things looking up for the market as a whole, the following five ultra-popular stocks should be avoided like the plague in June.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nAMC Entertainment\nThere's absolutely no question that the No. 1 stock to avoid like the plague in June is movie theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). It's far and away the most disassociated stock from its underlying business.\nAs most folks probably know by now, retail traders from Reddit, Twitter, and other social media platforms have banded together to buy shares and call options in AMC, which is a fairly heavily short-sold stock. Their goal being to effect a short squeeze -- i.e., an event where pessimists (short-sellers) feel trapped in their positions and run for the exit at once. Short squeezes are very short-term events and they have a very poor track record of success.\nWhile I have a laundry list of issues with the basis for this trade, perhaps the single biggest is that retail traders are willingly ignoring AMC's dumpster fire of an income statement and balance sheet. This is a company that almost certainly won't be capable of paying back its debts when they come due by or before 2026. It's also now been hamstrung by the same retail investors who claimed to want to \"save AMC.\" That's because AMC has maxed out how many shares it's authorized to issue, and can therefore not take advantage of higher prices with a capital raise. The May proxy vote would have allowed AMC to take advantage of this recent spike, but shortsightedness from retail traders killed that idea.\nThe AMC bull thesis is also built on a monument of misinformation. For example, retail traders believe hedge funds can bankrupt companies, when it's the operating performance and actions of businesses that determine whether or not they succeed or fail.\nSuffice it to say, the willful ignorance of concrete data in AMC's income statements and balance sheets will come back to haunt these traders.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMarathon Digital Holdings\nJune would also be a very good time to say goodbye to a number Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) stocks. Cryptocurrency miner Marathon Digital Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA) may well top that list.\nAs I've been previously stated, I'm not a fan of Bitcoin. Although it's the largest digital currency in the world by market value, it's been stuck at handling a meager 300,000 transactions daily for more than a year and is accepted by approximately 15,200 businesses worldwide. That's nothing when you consider that there an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs around the globe.\nBitcoin is also prone to long-winded downtrends. Over the past decade, the top cryptocurrency has lost at least 80% of its value on three separate occasions. That's bad news for Marathon for two key reasons. First, Marathon Digital mines Bitcoin, and is therefore reliant on higher prices to increase its revenue. It's not even clear if Marathon's mining operations would be sustainable if Bitcoin, once again, declines by more than 80% from its high of nearly $65,000.\nThe other issue is that Marathon purchased $150 million in Bitcoin earlier this year. While still up slightly on its investment, a protracted move lower in Bitcoin threatens to wipe out a good chunk of Marathon Digital's assets.\nI've said it before and I'll say it again: Crypto mining stocks are the worst way to invest in Bitcoin.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSundial Growers\nFollowing its late-May rally, Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL) has once more emerged as the top marijuana stock to avoid, as well as one of the worst stocks to buy, as a whole.\nWhile marijuana is an intriguing place to put your money to work over the next five to 10 years, Canadian pot stock Sundial has consistently underperformed its peers and done nothing to build shareholder value.\nIn an effort to rid its balance sheet of debt, the company's management team began selling stock in October 2020... and it just hasn't stopped. Sundial has built up a cash hoard of 1.08 billion Canadian (about $894 million U.S.), but has done so by issuing more than 1.35 billion shares of stock in eight months. As of May 7, the company had 1.86 billion shares outstanding -- and this figure is likely to go higher with an $800 million at-the-market share offering approved earlier this year. Sundial is building up cash with no particular purpose in mind and drowning its shareholders in the process.\nWith 1.86 billion shares outstanding, Sundial has virtually no chance of ever producing meaningful earnings per share, and it may not be able to get back above $1 per share on a consistent basis. It'll likely have to follow in the footsteps of serial diluter Aurora Cannabis and reverse split to get its share price to a respectable level.\nAs the icing on the cake, legal pot sales in Canada have grown significantly, while Sundial's marijuana sales have been slashed by a double-digit percentage. It's not where you want to put your money to work in the high-growth cannabis space.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nCastor Maritime\nAs a general rule, penny stocks are penny stocks for a good reason. A company that consistently has a very low share price probably has an untested operating model, is losing money, and isn't creating value for its shareholders. This pretty much sums up Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM).\nOn paper, the operating model doesn't sound awful. Castor buys vessels capable of transporting dry bulk goods, such as grains, fertilizer, sugar, and steel. If the U.S. and global economy are rebounding from their pandemic lows, demand for dry bulk goods and daily charter rates should increase over time. Pretty straightforward, right?\nThe problem is that Castor Maritime didn't have the fleet or the finances to take advantage of this rebound. To compensate, it's been selling shares of its stock like it's going out of style to raise capital to buy new vessels. Castor ended 2020 with six ships but it now owns 26, when all are fully delivered. But it's the company's shareholders who paid the price for this shopping spree. Castor's share count has risen from 3.3 million shares on Dec. 31, 2019 to about 900 million (both figures are pre-split).\nHowever, last month the company had to enact a 1-for-10 reverse split to simply remain listed on the Nasdaq exchange. Issuing so many shares pushed Castor's share price below $0.40, and a $1 minimum share price is required for continued listing.\nWe've witnessed this same dilute and reverse-split story time and again in the shipping space. Castor is no different, which is why it should be avoided.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nGameStop\nSince we began with a Reddit pump-and-dump stock (AMC), it's only fitting that we end with another hype-driven Reddit stock: video game and accessories retailer GameStop (NYSE:GME).\nRetail traders have flocked to GameStop for the exact same reason as AMC. GameStop had a larger percentage of its float held short than any other publicly traded company in January. This made it the ideal candidate for a short squeeze. Unfortunately, it's also spurred retail investors to now hone in on short interest data and absolutely nothing else about the companies they're buying.\nTo be clear, GameStop is a much, much better and more financially sound company than AMC. A recent share offering helped raise $551 million in gross proceeds, which means GameStop has wiped out its debt and has more than enough cash to move forward with its digital transformation. In fact, all of these avoidable stocks are likely OK on the liquidity front for the next three to five years... except AMC.\nWhere GameStop gets into trouble is if you dig into its operating performance. It's always been a brick-and-mortar-focused company. This worked well for two decades, but is problematic now that gaming has gone digital. Even with e-commerce sales up 191% last year, GameStop's total sales declined by more than 21%. In short, sales will be stagnant for years as the company shutters physical locations and invests in digital initiatives. Such challenges certainly don't merit a nearly 1,100% gain on a year-to-date basis.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":445,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":113609928,"gmtCreate":1622607344664,"gmtModify":1631889387834,"author":{"id":"3574454656595276","authorId":"3574454656595276","name":"Jokerz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed598874b1c2b9bd8c6076a4c57d6db9","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574454656595276","authorIdStr":"3574454656595276"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"AMC FOR 10000% gains!!!","listText":"AMC FOR 10000% gains!!!","text":"AMC FOR 10000% gains!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/113609928","repostId":"1175551284","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175551284","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622600822,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1175551284?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-02 10:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Want to get in on hot energy stocks?

That wasthe largest year-over-year jump in prices in 13 years.</p>\n<p>During an interview last week, Michael Arone, the chief investment strategist for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/STT\">State</a> Street Global Advisors’ U.S. SPDR exchange traded fund business, said investors should keep an eye on the labor market for signals of when the Federal Reserve might begin curtailing its bond purchases and allowing long-term interest rates to wise. He expects our current expansion cycle that favors energy stocks andother cyclical sectorsto continue until early 2023.</p>\n<p>Energy stock screen</p>\n<p>For a list of energy stocks, it helps to expand beyond the S&amp;P 500. The energy sector now comprises only 2.8% of the index’s market capitalization, down from 7.1% five years ago.</p>\n<p>To broaden the list beyond the 23 stocks in the S&amp;P 500, we began with the S&amp;P Composite 1500 IndexSP1500,+0.04%,which is made up of the S&amp;P 500, the S&amp;P 400 Mid Cap IndexMID,+0.63%and the S&amp;P Small Cap 600 IndexSML,+1.57%.That brought the full list of energy-sector stocks up to 62 companies.</p>\n<p>Pipeline partnerships</p>\n<p>We then added another group of energy stocks — master limited partnerships, or MLPs, which are primarily income vehicles. As limited partnerships, these investments pass income (and capital losses) from pipelines, fuel storage and transportation businesses through to unit holders, who receive K-1 forms instead of 1099 dividend forms to report income. That makes tax preparation more complicated. MLPs aren’t included in the S&amp;P indexes.</p>\n<p>One way to invest in this group of energy stocks is the Alerian MLP ETFAMLP,+2.85%,which holds 17 MLPs. The ETF pays a quarterly dividend and removes the tax complications associated with direct ownership of MLPs. Its current dividend yield is 8.84%, reflecting low MLP prices. (Excluding dividends, AMLP’s share price was up 36% for 2021 through May 28. But it was down 15% from the end of 2019, down 21% from five years earlier and down 67% from 10 years earlier.)</p>\n<p>Wall Street’s favorites</p>\n<p>Starting with our full list of 79 energy stocks (the 62 in the S&amp;P Composite 1500 Index and the 17 held by AMLP), here are the 20 that are covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet, with majority “buy” or equivalent ratings, that have the highest upside for the next year implied by consensus price targets:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/336dd7dd3db74a9f471783464de6acc9\" tg-width=\"789\" tg-height=\"755\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">You may need to scroll the table to see all the data. The list is sorted by the implied 12-month upside based on consensus price targets. Dividend yields are in the right-most column.</p>\n<p>The listed company with the highest 12-month upside potential implied by the price targets is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/REGI\">Renewable</a> Energy Group Inc.REGI,+4.78%,which is aptly named because of its focus on biodiesel production and refining.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a> made the list. The stock’s dividend yield remains attractive at 5.16%, despite a 23% increase for the shares this year through May 28. But Chevron’s arch rival Exxon didn’t make the list, followinglast week’s big victory for activist investorswho gained seats on the company’s board in an effort to push Exxon to change its strategy toward <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> better-suited for a long-term switch away from fossil fuels.</p>\n<p>The second company on the list is Energy Transfer LPET,+3.64%,which has a dividend yield of 6.16% and is expected by analysts to see its partnership unit price increase 34% over the next 12 months. It is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of four MLPs that made the list.</p>\n<p>One pipeline operator that<i>didn’t</i>make the list is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMB\">Williams</a> Cos.WMB,+2.09%,which was up 32% this year through May 28. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WMB\">Williams</a> is not an MLP — it has a traditional corporate structure. The shares have a dividend yield of 6.23%, and Williams, like Exxon and Chevron, has not cut its payout during the pandemic. Eighty percent of analysts polled by FactSet rate Williams “buy” or the equivalent, but the company didn’t make the list because the consensus price target of $28.83 was only 7% above the closing price of $26.34 on May 28.</p>\n<p>It’s important to keep in mind that even at this stage of the economic recovery, dividend payouts can be reduced. And even though the analysts at brokerage firms favor these stocks, the price targets only go out 12 months, per tradition. That’s actually a short time frame for such a difficult, volatile sector.</p>\n<p>Before committing money to any of these energy companies — or to any investment for that matter — you should do your own research and form your own opinion.</p>\n<p><b>Don’t miss:</b>Amazon and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> as defensive plays?

And an analysis by GasBuddy showed gasoline demand in the U.S. at close to normal levels,possibly poised to hit record levels this summer.\nEnergy recovery has a long way to go\nThe S&P 500 energy sectorSP500.10,was up 36% for 2021 through the end of May. (All price changes in this article exclude dividends.) That’s the best sector performance in the benchmark index so far this year.\nStretching out the timeline paints a different story:If we look at price changes from the end of 2019 — before the coronavirus pandemic hurt demand for West Texas crude oilCL00,+0.40%so badly that forward-month futures contracts dipped momentarily in the red — the energy sector is the only one not showing a significant gain.\nThe long-term figures are even worse, underscoring how shares of energy producers haven’t yet returned to their levels before the great oil-price crash that began during the summer of 2014.\nThe table includes price changes for the full S&P 500SPX,-0.05%and the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,+0.13%.The Dow was bogged down by holding both Exxon Mobil Corp.XOM,+3.58%and Chevron Corp.CVX,+2.76%for most of these periods until Exxon was dropped from the group of 30 blue-chip stocks in August of last year.\nEconomic cycle\nThere has been a shift to cyclical sectors of the stock market this year, as some investors have become afraid that rising consumer prices may cause the Federal Reserve to reverse its stimulative policies that have helped prop up the U.S. economy, and kept interest rates and borrowing costs down.\nConsumer prices rose 0.8% during April from the previous month and 4.2% from a year earlier. That wasthe largest year-over-year jump in prices in 13 years.\nDuring an interview last week, Michael Arone, the chief investment strategist for State Street Global Advisors’ U.S. SPDR exchange traded fund business, said investors should keep an eye on the labor market for signals of when the Federal Reserve might begin curtailing its bond purchases and allowing long-term interest rates to wise. He expects our current expansion cycle that favors energy stocks andother cyclical sectorsto continue until early 2023.\nEnergy stock screen\nFor a list of energy stocks, it helps to expand beyond the S&P 500. The energy sector now comprises only 2.8% of the index’s market capitalization, down from 7.1% five years ago.\nTo broaden the list beyond the 23 stocks in the S&P 500, we began with the S&P Composite 1500 IndexSP1500,+0.04%,which is made up of the S&P 500, the S&P 400 Mid Cap IndexMID,+0.63%and the S&P Small Cap 600 IndexSML,+1.57%.That brought the full list of energy-sector stocks up to 62 companies.\nPipeline partnerships\nWe then added another group of energy stocks — master limited partnerships, or MLPs, which are primarily income vehicles. As limited partnerships, these investments pass income (and capital losses) from pipelines, fuel storage and transportation businesses through to unit holders, who receive K-1 forms instead of 1099 dividend forms to report income. That makes tax preparation more complicated. MLPs aren’t included in the S&P indexes.\nOne way to invest in this group of energy stocks is the Alerian MLP ETFAMLP,+2.85%,which holds 17 MLPs. The ETF pays a quarterly dividend and removes the tax complications associated with direct ownership of MLPs. Its current dividend yield is 8.84%, reflecting low MLP prices. (Excluding dividends, AMLP’s share price was up 36% for 2021 through May 28. But it was down 15% from the end of 2019, down 21% from five years earlier and down 67% from 10 years earlier.)\nWall Street’s favorites\nStarting with our full list of 79 energy stocks (the 62 in the S&P Composite 1500 Index and the 17 held by AMLP), here are the 20 that are covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet, with majority “buy” or equivalent ratings, that have the highest upside for the next year implied by consensus price targets:\nYou may need to scroll the table to see all the data. The list is sorted by the implied 12-month upside based on consensus price targets. Dividend yields are in the right-most column.\nThe listed company with the highest 12-month upside potential implied by the price targets is Renewable Energy Group Inc.REGI,+4.78%,which is aptly named because of its focus on biodiesel production and refining.\nChevron made the list. The stock’s dividend yield remains attractive at 5.16%, despite a 23% increase for the shares this year through May 28. But Chevron’s arch rival Exxon didn’t make the list, followinglast week’s big victory for activist investorswho gained seats on the company’s board in an effort to push Exxon to change its strategy toward one better-suited for a long-term switch away from fossil fuels.\nThe second company on the list is Energy Transfer LPET,+3.64%,which has a dividend yield of 6.16% and is expected by analysts to see its partnership unit price increase 34% over the next 12 months. It is one of four MLPs that made the list.\nOne pipeline operator thatdidn’tmake the list is Williams Cos.WMB,+2.09%,which was up 32% this year through May 28. Williams is not an MLP — it has a traditional corporate structure. The shares have a dividend yield of 6.23%, and Williams, like Exxon and Chevron, has not cut its payout during the pandemic. Eighty percent of analysts polled by FactSet rate Williams “buy” or the equivalent, but the company didn’t make the list because the consensus price target of $28.83 was only 7% above the closing price of $26.34 on May 28.\nIt’s important to keep in mind that even at this stage of the economic recovery, dividend payouts can be reduced. And even though the analysts at brokerage firms favor these stocks, the price targets only go out 12 months, per tradition. That’s actually a short time frame for such a difficult, volatile sector.\nBefore committing money to any of these energy companies — or to any investment for that matter — you should do your own research and form your own opinion.\nDon’t miss:Amazon and Facebook as defensive plays?

For leisure and travel stocks like <b>Airbnb</b> that got slammed by pandemic shutdowns, the lifting of Covid curbs means adjusting to a whole new world.</p><p>Some tastes people acquired last year as they looked for escapes from lockdown are proving durable, like traveling to national parks by RV. Others, such as boating, grew out of surges in wealth that the stock market rally provided. As the summer travel season heats up, Americans are making new choices in where they go, when they go, how they get there and who joins them.</p><p>\"The world is never going back to the way it was,\" said Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky on an earnings call in May. \"And that means that travel is never going back to the way it was either.\"</p><p>One major trend is travelers have become more flexible about when and where they go, especially as remote work allows people to blur when they are on and off the clock. Airbnb stock rose May 24, when the company updated booking features, including an option to search for listings without fixed dates or locations.</p><p>And consumers aren't the only ones changing their habits. While tourism-dependent destinations suffered last year, the less-packed streets also showed locals the benefits of quieter communities.</p><p>Residents and local officials in normally packed hot spots like Italy and Hawaii are considering limiting the number of tourists. Such a seismic change could make visiting these places prohibitively expensive for many people. If the mix of travelers tilts more heavily toward the wealthy, travel stocks will nudge further toward luxury.</p><h2>Leisure, Travel Industry Stocks</h2><p>Shares across the sector have rebounded from last year's pandemic lows. The stocks' recent chart action is mixed. But many travel stocks have outperformed the market the past week and could present buying opportunities for investors.</p><p>Airline stocks&nbsp;like <b>American Airlines</b>, <b>United Airlines</b> and <b>Delta Air Lines</b> surged earlier this year on the Reddit stock short squeeze. Then they sold off because business and overseas travel remained weak. Since then, they've consolidated and are approaching buy points.</p><p>Cruise stocks like <b>Carnival</b>, <b>Royal Caribbean</b> and <b>Norwegian Cruise Line</b> are showing similar patterns.</p><p>Meanwhile, shares of boat makers <b>MarineMax</b> and <b>Brunswick</b> as well as RV makers <b>Winnebago</b> and <b>Thor Industries</b> need to regroup after some failed breakouts. They are no longer in buy zones but could form new bases if earnings and sales growth remain strong.</p><p>Hotel leader <b>Marriott</b> has been less volatile and is forming a base, though earnings and sales have yet to fully recover.</p><p>Airbnb stock has had a more difficult year. It surged after going public in December but began to slump in March as competition from <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXPE\">Expedia</a></b> rival Vrbo rental service reduced the availability of hosts. A mixed Q1 earnings report and the end of a post-IPO lockup period also weighed on Airbnb stock, which popped up 6% Thursday on higher volume but remained 35% off its 2021 high.</p><h2><b>When Luxury Means More Privacy</b></h2><p>Luxury travel, once the purview of only the ultrarich, may have won over those who might have had the means but not the need to travel lavishly.

A mixed Q1 earnings report and the end of a post-IPO lockup period also weighed on Airbnb stock, which popped up 6% Thursday on higher volume but remained 35% off its 2021 high.</p><h2><b>When Luxury Means More Privacy</b></h2><p>Luxury travel, once the purview of only the ultrarich, may have won over those who might have had the means but not the need to travel lavishly. As travelers sought to avoid crowds during the pandemic, those with the means turned to options like private jets.</p><p>Arnie Weissman, editor-in-chief of Travel Weekly, says the pandemic opened luxury travel to a wider customer base. \"Some people developed a taste for it, and it's likely to continue.\"</p><p>Kim-Marie Evans, who writes the blog \"Luxury Travel Moms\" and plans travel for high-net-worth clients, told IBD she booked a trip for a family to Anguilla.</p><p>They stayed in a four-bedroom villa at the Four Seasons.

Consumers also are prioritizing their health and safety, choosing the seclusion of a private jet over a packed jetliner.</p><h2><b>Vacation Shift Favors These Travel Stocks</b></h2><p>Hotel chains implemented stringent Covid-19 protocols to convince visitors their properties were clean and safe. Still, many travelers opted to rent private homes through Airbnb, where they could avoid mingling with strangers in hotel lobbies, Weismann says.</p><p>Travel trends favor Airbnb stock long term, though it currently is slumping. On May 27, analysts at RBC Capital Markets rated shares at outperform, citing secular tailwinds that have yet to be fully appreciated by the market such as its dominant customer engagement.</p><p>The pandemic also shed light on the market potential of travel stocks like Marriott, which operates home-rental service Homes &amp; Villas by Marriott International, catering to ultra premium short- and long-term stays, CFRA Research analyst Tuna Amobi says.</p><p>The Homes &amp; Villas platform, which offers professionally managed private homes, had around 2,000 units at launch less than two years ago. Today, it lists nearly 25,000 properties.</p><p>\"They're where we don't have hotels, and many of them are in more remote locations, which really was quite attractive during Covid,\" said Marriott International President Stephanie Linnartz in a recent call with investors.</p><p>Airbnb also finds that customers are visiting smaller cities, towns and rural communities — not the same 20-30 cities that were most popular pre-pandemic. People are traveling outside the peak seasons and staying longer.</p><p>\"There is a mass shift from mass travel to meaningful travel,\" CEO Chesky said.</p><h2><b>Seaworthy Travel Stocks </b></h2><p>Luxury cruising should also come back with a bang. Nearly every cruise line's around-the-world luxury voyage is fully booked two years in advance.</p><p>One cruise line, Silversea, said its 139-day around-the-world cruise sold out in a single day. The Monaco-based cruise line is owned by Royal Caribbean. The cruise costs between $74,000 and $278,000 per guest, based on double occupancy. That compares with typical fares that start at $15,000-$20,000.</p><p>But others heading out to sea want to avoid crowded ships, which have seen outbreaks of coronavirus and other infections. The National Marine Manufacturers Association says new powerboat sales surged 34% in February compared to the same time period last year.</p><p>\"Inventory levels of new boats are the leanest they've ever been, and boats are being sold as soon as they hit the marketplace as manufacturers work to fulfill the backlog of orders,\" said Vicky Yu, senior director of business intelligence for NMMA. \"While new boat sales slowed in early 2021 following record sales last year, we are still seeing elevated levels as more Americans seek out boating as a way to spend quality time with loved ones.\"</p><p>The trend has pushed up leisure and travel stocks like boat retailers MarineMax and Brunswick&nbsp;as well as sport boat maker <b>Malibu Boats</b>.</p><p>\"It's really turning out to be a great alternative for people to stay close to home and with their family and friends and enjoy the boating lifestyle,\" MarineMax CFO Michael McLamb said in a conference call after reporting earnings April 22.</p><h2><b>Travel Stocks For Being Alone Together</b></h2><p>The desire to spend more time with friends and family is also spurring RV sales.

Instead of booking studio apartments in cities, more customers are booking entire homes with more bedrooms. As a result, the number of guests per reservation has increased.</p><h2><b>Work-Life Rebalance</b></h2><p>As people pay closer attention to their well-being post-Covid, another trend to watch is high-end wellness tourism with a focus on fitness, rejuvenation and health, Weissman says. That includes yoga and spa getaways as well as packages that offer cycling and hiking activities.</p><p>Meanwhile, the work-from-home shift allowed people to rethink other aspects of their lifestyle.

If the mix of travelers tilts more heavily toward the wealthy, travel stocks will nudge further toward luxury.Leisure, Travel Industry StocksShares across the sector have rebounded from last year's pandemic lows. The stocks' recent chart action is mixed. But many travel stocks have outperformed the market the past week and could present buying opportunities for investors.Airline stocks like American Airlines, United Airlines and Delta Air Lines surged earlier this year on the Reddit stock short squeeze. Then they sold off because business and overseas travel remained weak. Since then, they've consolidated and are approaching buy points.Cruise stocks like Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line are showing similar patterns.Meanwhile, shares of boat makers MarineMax and Brunswick as well as RV makers Winnebago and Thor Industries need to regroup after some failed breakouts. They are no longer in buy zones but could form new bases if earnings and sales growth remain strong.Hotel leader Marriott has been less volatile and is forming a base, though earnings and sales have yet to fully recover.Airbnb stock has had a more difficult year. It surged after going public in December but began to slump in March as competition from Expedia rival Vrbo rental service reduced the availability of hosts. A mixed Q1 earnings report and the end of a post-IPO lockup period also weighed on Airbnb stock, which popped up 6% Thursday on higher volume but remained 35% off its 2021 high.When Luxury Means More PrivacyLuxury travel, once the purview of only the ultrarich, may have won over those who might have had the means but not the need to travel lavishly. As travelers sought to avoid crowds during the pandemic, those with the means turned to options like private jets.Arnie Weissman, editor-in-chief of Travel Weekly, says the pandemic opened luxury travel to a wider customer base. \"Some people developed a taste for it, and it's likely to continue.\"Kim-Marie Evans, who writes the blog \"Luxury Travel Moms\" and plans travel for high-net-worth clients, told IBD she booked a trip for a family to Anguilla.They stayed in a four-bedroom villa at the Four Seasons. And rather than flying commercially, they used a private jet service.Private jet bookings are at or near their pre-pandemic highs, according to Elite Traveler, citing industry tracker FlightAware's data.In May, private jet company Wheels Up said membership jumped 58% in Q1 to nearly 10,000. And VistaJet, another leading private jet company, said membership climbed 29% from a year ago.Private jet leasing company NetJets, which is owned by Berkshire Hathaway, says its flight volume dropped to as low as 10% of 2019 numbers at the start of the pandemic.Now the company, which also offers fractional ownership of its jets, says it's operating at 85% of its 2019 volume. NetJets said in a statement that commercial airlines have reduced their schedules. Consumers also are prioritizing their health and safety, choosing the seclusion of a private jet over a packed jetliner.Vacation Shift Favors These Travel StocksHotel chains implemented stringent Covid-19 protocols to convince visitors their properties were clean and safe. Still, many travelers opted to rent private homes through Airbnb, where they could avoid mingling with strangers in hotel lobbies, Weismann says.Travel trends favor Airbnb stock long term, though it currently is slumping. On May 27, analysts at RBC Capital Markets rated shares at outperform, citing secular tailwinds that have yet to be fully appreciated by the market such as its dominant customer engagement.The pandemic also shed light on the market potential of travel stocks like Marriott, which operates home-rental service Homes & Villas by Marriott International, catering to ultra premium short- and long-term stays, CFRA Research analyst Tuna Amobi says.The Homes & Villas platform, which offers professionally managed private homes, had around 2,000 units at launch less than two years ago. Today, it lists nearly 25,000 properties.\"They're where we don't have hotels, and many of them are in more remote locations, which really was quite attractive during Covid,\" said Marriott International President Stephanie Linnartz in a recent call with investors.Airbnb also finds that customers are visiting smaller cities, towns and rural communities — not the same 20-30 cities that were most popular pre-pandemic. People are traveling outside the peak seasons and staying longer.\"There is a mass shift from mass travel to meaningful travel,\" CEO Chesky said.Seaworthy Travel Stocks Luxury cruising should also come back with a bang. Nearly every cruise line's around-the-world luxury voyage is fully booked two years in advance.One cruise line, Silversea, said its 139-day around-the-world cruise sold out in a single day. The Monaco-based cruise line is owned by Royal Caribbean. The cruise costs between $74,000 and $278,000 per guest, based on double occupancy. That compares with typical fares that start at $15,000-$20,000.But others heading out to sea want to avoid crowded ships, which have seen outbreaks of coronavirus and other infections. The National Marine Manufacturers Association says new powerboat sales surged 34% in February compared to the same time period last year.\"Inventory levels of new boats are the leanest they've ever been, and boats are being sold as soon as they hit the marketplace as manufacturers work to fulfill the backlog of orders,\" said Vicky Yu, senior director of business intelligence for NMMA. \"While new boat sales slowed in early 2021 following record sales last year, we are still seeing elevated levels as more Americans seek out boating as a way to spend quality time with loved ones.\"The trend has pushed up leisure and travel stocks like boat retailers MarineMax and Brunswick as well as sport boat maker Malibu Boats.\"It's really turning out to be a great alternative for people to stay close to home and with their family and friends and enjoy the boating lifestyle,\" MarineMax CFO Michael McLamb said in a conference call after reporting earnings April 22.Travel Stocks For Being Alone TogetherThe desire to spend more time with friends and family is also spurring RV sales. They exploded in popularity during the pandemic, and sales data this year show demand remains high.\"The rediscovery of America will continue this summer,\" Weissman said.The pandemic accelerated long-term trends favoring the outdoors, Winnebago CEO Michael Happe said in a March earnings call. That includes power sports, boating and RVs.Consumer priorities have changed, he added, toward a desire to invest in experiences vs. possessions.\"We also believe the time (spent) recently with family and friends has reinforced that they'd like to do more of that in the future,\" Happe said. \"And families and individuals will be reevaluating how they spend their leisure time going forward.\"Airbnb pointed to another sign of this trend among leisure and travel stocks. Instead of booking studio apartments in cities, more customers are booking entire homes with more bedrooms. As a result, the number of guests per reservation has increased.Work-Life RebalanceAs people pay closer attention to their well-being post-Covid, another trend to watch is high-end wellness tourism with a focus on fitness, rejuvenation and health, Weissman says. That includes yoga and spa getaways as well as packages that offer cycling and hiking activities.Meanwhile, the work-from-home shift allowed people to rethink other aspects of their lifestyle. In particular, they can try to balance work, leisure and travel differently.Wedbush analyst James Hardiman says \"2020 was proof of concept that people can be productive, even more productive, while working remotely.\"Airbnb says the share of bookings longer than 28 days jumped to 24% in Q1 from 14% in 2019. The company doesn't consider this travel.\"People are not just traveling on Airbnb,\" Chesky said. \"They're now living on Airbnb.\"Future Of Business Travel?That also has implications for business travel, which is the most lucrative segment for travel stocks like airlines.Experts say fewer workers may fly for one-day intracompany meetings. However, more crucial business will still require people to fly for in-person meetings.When it's time to show up in person, Airbnb expects workers will travel together more often. That trend also has ramifications for Airbnb stock and others. Employees who work in different cities might stay in one house when they visit headquarters. They could share meals together at the kitchen table in the morning or evening.That may be a welcome change for road warriors, who pop in an out of cities and squeeze in sightseeing along the way.\"They don't miss business travel,\" Chesky said. \"They don't miss standing in line in front of a museum or a landmark … getting a photo with a selfie stick.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":113,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":138082920,"gmtCreate":1621901274160,"gmtModify":1634185725311,"author":{"id":"3574454656595276","authorId":"3574454656595276","name":"Jokerz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed598874b1c2b9bd8c6076a4c57d6db9","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574454656595276","authorIdStr":"3574454656595276"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please rate and like my comment.

While bulls believe this dip provides an excellent buying opportunity, bears feel the stock can still fall further. Amidst these debates between bulls and bears, a broad swath of institutional investors seems to have picked sides already. Latest 13F filings data, released a few days ago, reveals that this class of investors has accumulated Palantir's shares as they dropped in the past few weeks. This should come across as an encouraging sign for the company's long-side investors, especially for those who're facing the dilemma about whether to hold or exit the stock altogether.</p>\n<p><b>The Institutional Buying</b></p>\n<p>Let me start by saying that institutional investors generally have several tools and resources at their disposal - such as access to company managements, supply chain connections, large analyst teams to conduct scuttlebutt research - which can, at times, give them an edge over retail investors. So, following their trading activity and their well-researched bets can sometimes provide us with leading insights about how particular stocks might perform next.</p>\n<p>As far as Palantir is concerned, institutional investors collectively accumulated about 16 million of the company's shares, on a net basis, in the last 13F filing cycle. This equates to about 0.9% and 1.2% of Palantir's overall shares outstanding and its total public float, respectively. For the record, the latest 13F filings cycle spanned from 1 January, 2021 to 31 March, 2021, and the data was fully released less than a week ago, which makes it very much fresh and relevant to our analysis here.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62f3213bf751c6c12d0c50a291b217a4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"623\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>(Source:Nasdaq)</i></p>\n<p>There are a few more finer details of this data release that particularly stand out. For starters, the number of institutions that increased their exposure to Palantir's shares in the last 13F cycle greatly outnumbered those that reduced their positions in the name, by a factor of 3.6 times. Where 140 institutions cut their exposure to Palantir, 504 institutional investors bought into it. This goes to show that this class of sophisticated investors, as a whole, is very bullish on the data analytics firm and its growth prospects.</p>\n<p>Next, I pulled the trading data for Palantir's 60 largest institutional investors, hoping to get a fresh perspective and to see if they traded any differently. Interestingly, only 12 out of its 60 largest institutional investors trimmed their positions in the company.

From itsQ1 earnings call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Since the beginning of February, qualified commercial opportunities in the US and the UK are up 2.5 times.

So, essentially, investors are paying a premium for its lofty revenue growth momentum.

While bulls believe this dip provides an excellent buying opportunity, bears feel the stock can still fall further. Amidst these debates between bulls and bears, a broad swath of institutional investors seems to have picked sides already. Latest 13F filings data, released a few days ago, reveals that this class of investors has accumulated Palantir's shares as they dropped in the past few weeks. This should come across as an encouraging sign for the company's long-side investors, especially for those who're facing the dilemma about whether to hold or exit the stock altogether.\nThe Institutional Buying\nLet me start by saying that institutional investors generally have several tools and resources at their disposal - such as access to company managements, supply chain connections, large analyst teams to conduct scuttlebutt research - which can, at times, give them an edge over retail investors. So, following their trading activity and their well-researched bets can sometimes provide us with leading insights about how particular stocks might perform next.\nAs far as Palantir is concerned, institutional investors collectively accumulated about 16 million of the company's shares, on a net basis, in the last 13F filing cycle. This equates to about 0.9% and 1.2% of Palantir's overall shares outstanding and its total public float, respectively. For the record, the latest 13F filings cycle spanned from 1 January, 2021 to 31 March, 2021, and the data was fully released less than a week ago, which makes it very much fresh and relevant to our analysis here.\n\n(Source:Nasdaq)\nThere are a few more finer details of this data release that particularly stand out. For starters, the number of institutions that increased their exposure to Palantir's shares in the last 13F cycle greatly outnumbered those that reduced their positions in the name, by a factor of 3.6 times. Where 140 institutions cut their exposure to Palantir, 504 institutional investors bought into it. This goes to show that this class of sophisticated investors, as a whole, is very bullish on the data analytics firm and its growth prospects.\nNext, I pulled the trading data for Palantir's 60 largest institutional investors, hoping to get a fresh perspective and to see if they traded any differently. Interestingly, only 12 out of its 60 largest institutional investors trimmed their positions in the company. On the other hand, the remaining 48 institutions bought Palantir's shares during the last 13F filings cycle. This, again, points us to an overly bullish market sentiment pertaining to Palantir, at least when it comes to this class of sophisticated investors.\n\nThis brings us to the next question - why are institutional investors so bullish on Palantir in the first place?\nBullish for Good Reason\nFor starters, Palantir has posted consistent revenue growth in the last several quarters without exhibiting any signs of cyclicality. Specifically, its revenue from government clients has more than doubled over the last 7 quarters which suggests that the company isn't relying on sheer luck for its growth, but rather it has good connections within various government wings and that it has the technical expertise, security protocols, and the know-how to get qualified for government contracts time and again.\n\n(Source: BusinessQuant.com)\nAt this point, I believe Palantir just needs to rinse-and-repeat its strategy for government clients to continue growing rapidly. There's also the distinct possibility that government agencies start to internally recommend Palantir to other government departments for varied and different applications, if it reliably and in a timely manner executes on deliverables, which could further drive Palantir's revenue from government clients going forward.\nSecondly, I explained in prior articles how Palantir istransitioningto a customer-friendly payment model andhiringmore sales personnel to expand its footprint, and to accelerate its revenue growth, in the commercial space.

While I appreciate the vigor and long-sightedness behind these comments, I don't think that Palantir's shares will fall (as much) down to industry-average trading multiples anytime soon.\n\n(Source:Seeking Alpha)\nTo get a data-driven understanding of where Palantir stands compared to its peers, I compiled the revenue growth rates and trailing twelve-month P/S multiples for over 300 software application and infrastructure stocks. Then I used this data table to prepare a scatter chart, so readers can visually digest this data set.\n\n(Source: BusinessQuant.com)\nThe Y-axis makes it clear that Palantir is actually trading at a steep premium compared to most of its peers in the software application and infrastructure industries.

sectors in the S&P 500, healthcare suffered the biggest percentage drop.\nMuch of the trading volume this week was attributable to the ongoing social media-driven \"meme stock\" phenomenon, in which retail investors swarm around heavily shorted stocks.\nBut meme stock moves were more muted on Friday, with AMC Entertainment outperforming.\n(Reporting by Stephen Culp in New York Additional

While its major shareholders such as Silver Lake and Wanda Group were able to cash out and sell their stakes in the business at a profit, there’s no guarantee that public investors will be able to do the same thing if AMC runs out of cash later on. The weak environment, poor performance in pre-COVID-19 days, and an overleveraged balance sheet are making us believe that the growth of its stock is limited at this stage, as the short squeeze is likely to be over.</p>\n<p><b>Bankruptcy is Still on the Table</b></p>\n<p>AMC is down over 40% since our last&nbsp;article&nbsp;on the company came out in late January and we believe that the stock has even more room to fall. The major problem of AMC is that it had entered the pandemic in a weak financial state and it will exit it in an even worse shape than before. Right now data&nbsp;shows&nbsp;that the company’s 3-year revenue CAGR is -37.46%, while its 3-year stock performance is -42.47%, and it’s unlikely that the situation will improve in the next couple of years.</p>\n<p>The reality is that AMC was on its way to&nbsp;bankruptcy, but it was able to extend its lifetime thanks to the help of public investors, who began to prop up its share price at the beginning of this year and executed a short squeeze, which pushed the company’s stock to new highs. However, while AMC was able to avoid insolvency, the major winners of this appreciation were big investors such as Silver Lake and Wanda Group, which were able to quickly profit from such a move and decrease their stakes in the company. As a result, public investors now&nbsp;own&nbsp;over 80% of the company’s stock, while institutions and the company’s insiders hold only ~10% and ~0.5% of the total equity in the company, respectively.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/111755e3bfea903a0e51c45485aeeece\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"443\"><span>Chart: Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>The company’s latest earnings&nbsp;results&nbsp;show that the business is far away from returning to normalcy. In Q4 its revenues of $162.5 million were down 88.8% Y/Y, as its receipts and attendance were down 89% Y/Y and 91.3% Y/Y, respectively. On top of that, its adjusted EBITDA for the period was -$327.5 million against $269.1 million a year ago, while its net loss in Q4 was -$946.1 million against a net loss of only -$13.5 million a year ago.</p>\n<p>Due to such a poor performance, AMC was able to survive solely through secondary offerings, which&nbsp;diluted&nbsp;its shareholders by around 330% in recent quarters. The company was able to raise ~$2.2 billion since the beginning of the pandemic, out of which ~$1 billion was raised in the last few months when its stock began to appreciate on heavy volume. However, that liquidity might not be enough in the long-term to avoid bankruptcy, since in 2020 alone the business&nbsp;had&nbsp;over $300 in annual interest expenses and by the end of the year, it had over $5 billion in debt. While during normal times, AMC would’ve been able to service that debt and deleverage its balance sheet by driving sales and generating positive FCF, it’s unlikely that it’ll be able to do so in the current environment since its business in the next couple of years is projected to not to return to its 2019 levels.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b95811a0d70a28646d816e042f448373\" tg-width=\"865\" tg-height=\"368\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>AMC will not be able to return to its pre-COVID-19 levels anytime soon simply due to the fact that a large group of consumers will now prefer to watch movies on their big screens at home rather than go to an enclosed public space and risk getting sick. Considering that some major production companies recently&nbsp;decided&nbsp;to distribute their movies via streaming platforms the same day those movies are released in cinemas, it’s hard to imagine how the overall theater business will be able to recover in the foreseeable future. With such a change in consumer habits, it’s unlikely that AMC will be able to improve its top-line performance and generate positive FCF to decrease its high debt burden.</p>\n<p>Another downside of AMC is that there’s still a possibility that it could become insolvent next year. In its latest 10-K&nbsp;filing&nbsp;the company said that its capacity needs to be at ~90% of pre-COVID-19 levels in the next few quarters in order to not run out of cash next year. Considering that the street expects the company to perform poorly in the near term, it’s unlikely that AMC will be able to reach such capacity levels and improve its operational performance, so there’s every reason to believe that it’ll be looking for additional liquidity. If AMC is unable to find enough liquidity, then the restructuring of its debt will take place. Here’s what the company has stated in its 10-K filing:</p>\n<blockquote>\n If such additional liquidity were not realized or insufficient we likely would seek an in-court or out-of-court restructuring of our liabilities, and in the event of such future liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, holders of our common stock and other securities would likely suffer a total loss of their investment.\n</blockquote>\n<p>One way AMC could raise liquidity is by issuing new shares and continuing to dilute its shareholders as it did in the last few quarters. Recently it was&nbsp;announced&nbsp;that the management of AMC will ask its investors to authorize it to issue additional 500 million shares during the upcoming annual investors' conference in May. While the company’s CEO&nbsp;pledged&nbsp;not to offer those shares in 2021, there’s every reason to believe that a dilution will happen next year since the overall business is not going to recover in the next few months. However, the problem is that public investors now control most of the company’s shares, so there’s a risk that the majority of them decide to vote against the authorization to issue new shares in order to prevent a depreciation of the company’s stock.

While its major shareholders such as Silver Lake and Wanda Group were able to cash out and sell their stakes in the business at a profit, there’s no guarantee that public investors will be able to do the same thing if AMC runs out of cash later on. The weak environment, poor performance in pre-COVID-19 days, and an overleveraged balance sheet are making us believe that the growth of its stock is limited at this stage, as the short squeeze is likely to be over.\nBankruptcy is Still on the Table\nAMC is down over 40% since our last article on the company came out in late January and we believe that the stock has even more room to fall. The major problem of AMC is that it had entered the pandemic in a weak financial state and it will exit it in an even worse shape than before. Right now data shows that the company’s 3-year revenue CAGR is -37.46%, while its 3-year stock performance is -42.47%, and it’s unlikely that the situation will improve in the next couple of years.\nThe reality is that AMC was on its way to bankruptcy, but it was able to extend its lifetime thanks to the help of public investors, who began to prop up its share price at the beginning of this year and executed a short squeeze, which pushed the company’s stock to new highs. However, while AMC was able to avoid insolvency, the major winners of this appreciation were big investors such as Silver Lake and Wanda Group, which were able to quickly profit from such a move and decrease their stakes in the company. As a result, public investors now own over 80% of the company’s stock, while institutions and the company’s insiders hold only ~10% and ~0.5% of the total equity in the company, respectively.\nChart: Seeking Alpha\nThe company’s latest earnings results show that the business is far away from returning to normalcy. In Q4 its revenues of $162.5 million were down 88.8% Y/Y, as its receipts and attendance were down 89% Y/Y and 91.3% Y/Y, respectively. On top of that, its adjusted EBITDA for the period was -$327.5 million against $269.1 million a year ago, while its net loss in Q4 was -$946.1 million against a net loss of only -$13.5 million a year ago.\nDue to such a poor performance, AMC was able to survive solely through secondary offerings, which diluted its shareholders by around 330% in recent quarters. The company was able to raise ~$2.2 billion since the beginning of the pandemic, out of which ~$1 billion was raised in the last few months when its stock began to appreciate on heavy volume. However, that liquidity might not be enough in the long-term to avoid bankruptcy, since in 2020 alone the business had over $300 in annual interest expenses and by the end of the year, it had over $5 billion in debt. While during normal times, AMC would’ve been able to service that debt and deleverage its balance sheet by driving sales and generating positive FCF, it’s unlikely that it’ll be able to do so in the current environment since its business in the next couple of years is projected to not to return to its 2019 levels.\nSource: Seeking Alpha\nAMC will not be able to return to its pre-COVID-19 levels anytime soon simply due to the fact that a large group of consumers will now prefer to watch movies on their big screens at home rather than go to an enclosed public space and risk getting sick. Considering that some major production companies recently decided to distribute their movies via streaming platforms the same day those movies are released in cinemas, it’s hard to imagine how the overall theater business will be able to recover in the foreseeable future. With such a change in consumer habits, it’s unlikely that AMC will be able to improve its top-line performance and generate positive FCF to decrease its high debt burden.\nAnother downside of AMC is that there’s still a possibility that it could become insolvent next year. In its latest 10-K filing the company said that its capacity needs to be at ~90% of pre-COVID-19 levels in the next few quarters in order to not run out of cash next year. Considering that the street expects the company to perform poorly in the near term, it’s unlikely that AMC will be able to reach such capacity levels and improve its operational performance, so there’s every reason to believe that it’ll be looking for additional liquidity. If AMC is unable to find enough liquidity, then the restructuring of its debt will take place. Here’s what the company has stated in its 10-K filing:\n\n If such additional liquidity were not realized or insufficient we likely would seek an in-court or out-of-court restructuring of our liabilities, and in the event of such future liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, holders of our common stock and other securities would likely suffer a total loss of their investment.\n\nOne way AMC could raise liquidity is by issuing new shares and continuing to dilute its shareholders as it did in the last few quarters. Recently it was announced that the management of AMC will ask its investors to authorize it to issue additional 500 million shares during the upcoming annual investors' conference in May. While the company’s CEO pledged not to offer those shares in 2021, there’s every reason to believe that a dilution will happen next year since the overall business is not going to recover in the next few months. However, the problem is that public investors now control most of the company’s shares, so there’s a risk that the majority of them decide to vote against the authorization to issue new shares in order to prevent a depreciation of the company’s stock. On top of that, it will be significantly harder for public investors to execute another short squeeze with so many new shares outstanding.\nConsidering all of this, we believe that the bankruptcy of AMC is still on the table, as the company might be unable to improve its top-line performance and generate positive FCF to service its debt in the foreseeable future. With a street price target of only $4.44 per share, we believe that AMC’s upside at this stage is limited and investing in the company’s shares is not worth it due to the high opportunity cost and poor risk/reward ratio.\nSource: Seeking Alpha","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":392,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372447499,"gmtCreate":1619237713211,"gmtModify":1634287517673,"author":{"id":"3574454656595276","authorId":"3574454656595276","name":"Jokerz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed598874b1c2b9bd8c6076a4c57d6db9","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574454656595276","authorIdStr":"3574454656595276"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/372447499","repostId":"1129095305","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129095305","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619191066,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129095305?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-23 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"SoftBank SPAC in talks about $2bn merger with location start-up Mapbox","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129095305","media":"Sky News","summary":"A New York-listed blank cheque company set up by SoftBank is in merger talks with Washington-based M","content":"<p>A New York-listed blank cheque company set up by SoftBank is in merger talks with Washington-based Mapbox, Sky News learns.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/667ca3f64b0a88847ecea6eeb2ee7eb1\" tg-width=\"2048\" tg-height=\"1152\"><span>SoftBank chief executive Masayoshi Son</span></p>\n<p>A ‘blank cheque’ company set up by the Japanese technology giant SoftBank is in talks to merge with a start-up which competes with the likes of Google Maps in the provision of sophisticated location data services.</p>\n<p>Sky News has learnt that Mapbox is in detailed negotiations to go public through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) - the latest in a torrent of technology businesses to list on New York exchanges through such a route in recent months.</p>\n<p>A US banking source said on Friday that the discussions between MapBox and SVF Investment Corp. 3 were at an advanced stage, but cautioned that a definitive transaction could still fall apart.</p>\n<p>Investment banks including Cantor Fitzgerald, Citi, Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan and UBS are all understood to be involved in the deal.</p>\n<p>Although Mapbox would be far from unusual in choosing a SPAC to launch its tenure as a publicly traded company, the transaction would be unusual in that SoftBank is already a shareholder in the company through its vast Vision Fund.</p>\n<p>Mapbox, which was founded in 2010, announced in 2017 that SoftBank had led a $164m Series C funding round without disclosing its valuation.</p>\n<p>It was unclear on Friday how much new capital the merger would involve through a component of the deal known as a PIPE - private investment in public equity.</p>","source":"lsy1619191032898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The demand for movie theaters will not come close to pre-pandemic levels for at least the next two years. AMC stock has had a wild ride in 2021, but it does not look promising going forward.</p><p>People will be keen on engaging in other social activities that they have avoided for a year now. We have already spent a lot of time indoors, and given a choice, I would always prefer heading outdoors and meeting people instead of sitting in a packed space watching a movie.</p><p>Even if that does not happen and consumers return to the theaters, there is something seriously wrong with AMC stock. I am definitely bearish on the stock. With that said, let’s take a look at the investment case for AMC stock.</p><p><b>Massive Share Dilution</b></p><p>At the end of 2019, AMC had103 million shares. Then, the pandemic hit, and the company was sinking. It had to push cash in the business to survive. Hence, by the end of the third quarter, there were 107.7. million shares held by the company, and it hasn’t stopped since then. Investors must understand the magnitude of share dilution and its impact on their holding.</p><p>AMC is burning cash to stay afloat, but the cash is coming from share dilution. In September, it announced an equity offer that allowed dilution of shares by selling new stock whenever the need arises. It has raised more than 300 million new shares and 44.4 million shares through debt conversion.</p><p>Currently, the company has 450 million outstanding shares. Heavy dilution is risky, and it makes no sense from a business perspective. If you already own AMC stock, your share in the company is likely much lower today than it was when you bought in. Furthermore, the company is not generating profits, and shareholders can only hope that the company survives the storm so they do not lose all their money.</p><p>AMC Entertainment pays about$350 million in interest expenses, and it is only rising. This month, the company has asked the shareholders for approval of asale of 500 million new shares. This will lead to further dilution. Given the fact that the company has been practicing the same for the past few months, the idea does not sound crazy. But for investors, it is a crazy ride.</p><p>All in all, the company has raised more than $2.2 billion in equity and debt,sold over $80 million in assets&nbsp;and converted $600 million of debt in equity. It held $1 billion in cash at the end of February this year.</p><p>Even if customers return to the theaters and the company starts to generate revenue, the share dilution could mean a big problem for shareholders. Management needs to limit the sale of new shares and try to look for alternative options to raise funds. If the company continues to dilute shares, it may not have enough cash for the coming year.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line on AMC stock</b></p><p>From a fundamental standpoint, AMC looks risky. The company had a flat revenue in 2019, and it has not been able to generate profits in the last two years. It is far away from getting back to where it was.</p><p>The company is also facing stiff competition from streaming platforms, and consumers have gotten used to enjoying their favorite movies from the comfort of their homes. It will continue to operate at a lesser capacity in the theaters, but the operating costs will keep piling up.

The demand for movie theaters will not come close to pre-pandemic levels for at least the next two years. AMC stock has had a wild ride in 2021, but it does not look promising going forward.People will be keen on engaging in other social activities that they have avoided for a year now. We have already spent a lot of time indoors, and given a choice, I would always prefer heading outdoors and meeting people instead of sitting in a packed space watching a movie.Even if that does not happen and consumers return to the theaters, there is something seriously wrong with AMC stock. I am definitely bearish on the stock. With that said, let’s take a look at the investment case for AMC stock.Massive Share DilutionAt the end of 2019, AMC had103 million shares. Then, the pandemic hit, and the company was sinking. It had to push cash in the business to survive. Hence, by the end of the third quarter, there were 107.7. million shares held by the company, and it hasn’t stopped since then. Investors must understand the magnitude of share dilution and its impact on their holding.AMC is burning cash to stay afloat, but the cash is coming from share dilution. In September, it announced an equity offer that allowed dilution of shares by selling new stock whenever the need arises. It has raised more than 300 million new shares and 44.4 million shares through debt conversion.Currently, the company has 450 million outstanding shares. Heavy dilution is risky, and it makes no sense from a business perspective. If you already own AMC stock, your share in the company is likely much lower today than it was when you bought in. Furthermore, the company is not generating profits, and shareholders can only hope that the company survives the storm so they do not lose all their money.AMC Entertainment pays about$350 million in interest expenses, and it is only rising. This month, the company has asked the shareholders for approval of asale of 500 million new shares. This will lead to further dilution. Given the fact that the company has been practicing the same for the past few months, the idea does not sound crazy. But for investors, it is a crazy ride.All in all, the company has raised more than $2.2 billion in equity and debt,sold over $80 million in assets and converted $600 million of debt in equity. It held $1 billion in cash at the end of February this year.Even if customers return to the theaters and the company starts to generate revenue, the share dilution could mean a big problem for shareholders. Management needs to limit the sale of new shares and try to look for alternative options to raise funds. If the company continues to dilute shares, it may not have enough cash for the coming year.The Bottom Line on AMC stockFrom a fundamental standpoint, AMC looks risky. The company had a flat revenue in 2019, and it has not been able to generate profits in the last two years. It is far away from getting back to where it was.The company is also facing stiff competition from streaming platforms, and consumers have gotten used to enjoying their favorite movies from the comfort of their homes. It will continue to operate at a lesser capacity in the theaters, but the operating costs will keep piling up. AMC also has heavy interest liability.I remain skeptical about the company being able to weather the storm amidst the pandemic. I do not think that the company will be able to gain stability or make money for the next two years. For those reasons, it’s best to avoid AMC stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":218,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":323672823,"gmtCreate":1615341222762,"gmtModify":1703487591526,"author":{"id":"3574454656595276","authorId":"3574454656595276","name":"Jokerz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed598874b1c2b9bd8c6076a4c57d6db9","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574454656595276","authorIdStr":"3574454656595276"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/323672823","repostId":"2118862319","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":208,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137086455,"gmtCreate":1622268981177,"gmtModify":1634102594358,"author":{"id":"3574454656595276","authorId":"3574454656595276","name":"Jokerz","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed598874b1c2b9bd8c6076a4c57d6db9","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574454656595276","authorIdStr":"3574454656595276"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Real","listText":"Real","text":"Real","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/137086455","repostId":"2138488778","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":71,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
