This could be view positively or negatively. On the bright side, this suggests that price performance would become more predictable with lower volatility, indicative of a broadening consensus on the fundamental prospects of the company. On the other hand, traders may be disappointed its lack of momentum. Therefore, this is probably a good time to stop viewing XPEV as purely a trade, but re-analyze its merits as a fundamentally-driven investment.</p>\n<p><i>The frenetic performance of XPEV has calmed down in recent weeks, allowing its one year performance to track the S&amp;P 500 more closely</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f04001d604ecc7892ef3a76c498578b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"236\"><span>Source: SeekingAlpha</span></p>\n<p><i>XPEV's G3 Super Long Range Smart SUV</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68446a741f9f97afc10f2149c4e13e13\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"388\"><span>Source: XPeng Motors (G3、P7) Intelligent electric car with Internet DNA</span></p>\n<p><b>Industry and commercial positives</b></p>\n<p>Optimism on EVs and&nbsp;strong industry growth&nbsp;rates are common knowledge by now.

At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked&nbsp;in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered&nbsp;20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.</li>\n <li><b>Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.</b>XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.</li>\n <li><b>Listing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.</b>Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and&nbsp;LI&nbsp;intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Of note, in late March, XPEV held an&nbsp;autonomous driving expedition&nbsp;covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the&nbsp;competitive landscape&nbsp;against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results&nbsp;performed better&nbsp;than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.</p>\n<p><b>XPEV's improving financials</b></p>\n<p>Now that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.</p>\n<p>Another point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities &amp; equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.</p>\n<p><i>XPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f8258dce0cc10e8118a23afce7655bed\" tg-width=\"726\" tg-height=\"737\"><span>*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha</span></p>\n<p><b>XPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle</b></p>\n<p>XPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers.

However, there could be a general re-rating of the P/S of the sector if the Chinese EV manufacturers reach breakeven in 2021 and record positive profits (our base case belief, given the prevailing trend in XPEV's improving operating margins).

This could be view positively or negatively. On the bright side, this suggests that price performance would become more predictable with lower volatility, indicative of a broadening consensus on the fundamental prospects of the company. On the other hand, traders may be disappointed its lack of momentum. Therefore, this is probably a good time to stop viewing XPEV as purely a trade, but re-analyze its merits as a fundamentally-driven investment.\nThe frenetic performance of XPEV has calmed down in recent weeks, allowing its one year performance to track the S&P 500 more closely\nSource: SeekingAlpha\nXPEV's G3 Super Long Range Smart SUV\nSource: XPeng Motors (G3、P7) Intelligent electric car with Internet DNA\nIndustry and commercial positives\nOptimism on EVs and strong industry growth rates are common knowledge by now. The following points suggest specific positives for XPEV that remain intact despite relatively ebbing momentum on the stock's price (as compared to 4Q2020):\n\nDeliveries met despite fears on chip shortage.While the stock's price momentum appears to have ebbed, recent news continues to remain positive. At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered 20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.\nGovernment support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.\nListing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and LI intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.\n\nOf note, in late March, XPEV held an autonomous driving expedition covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the competitive landscape against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results performed better than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.\nXPEV's improving financials\nNow that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.\nAnother point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.\nMeanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities & equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.\nXPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation\n*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha\nXPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle\nXPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers. On a TTM P/S, XPEV is near the middle although its FWD P/S is trading at a premium. However, there could be a general re-rating of the P/S of the sector if the Chinese EV manufacturers reach breakeven in 2021 and record positive profits (our base case belief, given the prevailing trend in XPEV's improving operating margins). This will then allow better price discovery when the companies can then be valued on their P/E ratios.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConclusion and Risks\nXPEV's stock price may benefit from two key catalysts: (1) expansion of manufacturing facility in Wuhan, which will concretely raise visibility of revenue growth which is expected to double; (2) a valuation regime change as it progresses from a loss making company to a profitable one, expected by this year. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the valuation is not lofty as compared to price levels in 4Q2020, having fallen over the last couple of months.\nCompetition may exist and remain intense, but given the large size of China's market and that there are only a couple of notable players (i.e. NIO, LI), the market remains largely an oligopoly which allows XPEV to retain pricing power.\nMuch feared risks of execution in the past appear to have materialized but not in a big way, i.e. the previously expected chip shortage. Given the progression to a post-COVID economy, supply chain links should improve and reduce similar risks in the future.\nOn a standalone basis, XPEV's prospects appear bright, and now the key hurdle is whether the NASDAQ will find momentum and exceed previous highs. The base case for this should lean towards the positive as the market is merely in the first year of the economic recovery after the pandemic. Recent price consolidation appears to have created a technical setup for a reawakening of price momentum as consumer activity revives post-pandemic.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":630,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":348738035,"gmtCreate":1617961689227,"gmtModify":1634295509392,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/348738035","repostId":"1168300924","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1168300924","pubTimestamp":1617955250,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1168300924?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-09 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Next Week’s IPO Lineup Is Growing.

The S&P 500 fell 0.09% to 3,971 after falling as much as 0.8% earlier. The Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.6% to 13,059.\nShares of ViacomCBS and Discovery swung between losses and gains afterintense selling pressurelast week. The two companies were believed to be hit by forced liquidation of positions held by the multibillion dollar family office Archegos Capital Management, a source familiar with the situation told CNBC.\nDiscovery lost 1.6%, while ViacomCBS dropped 6.7%. The two companies had lost 27% apiece during Friday’s selloff.\nElsewhere, Boeing gained 2.3% on news that Southwest Airlines had added 100 orders for the airliner’s 737 Max jet. The first 30 jets are scheduled for delivery in 2022.\nCredit Suisse shares tumbled 11.5% as the bank warned itwould face a “significant” hitto its first-quarter results due to the bank having to exit hedge fund positions related to the forced selling. Nomura also warned that it could get hit, sending its shares down 14%.\nBank stocks weighed on the Dow industrials, with Morgan Stanley dropping 2.6% and JPMorgan Chase off 1.6%. The weakness came as government bond yields edged higher to start the week.\nThough stocks were taking a hit from the Archegos stumble, the situation is unlikely to have lasting impacts on the broader market, according to Bespoke Investment Group.\n“While other funds may be caught in the mess, we fail to see how this specific car crash of a trade ends up propagating across the financial system via counterparty default,” Bespoke said in its morning note. However, the firm did caution that investors should “get used to the GMEs and Archegos of the world, because they seem to be happening with more frequency even if their fall-out is contained.”\nOn Friday, all three major benchmarks rallied to their session highs into the close with the blue-chip Dow closing about 450 points higher. The S&P 500 eventually climbed 1.7% to hit a record closing high. The Nasdaq Composite wiped out a 0.8% loss and ended Friday 1.2% higher.\nTraders are bracing for heightened volatility during this holiday-shortened week with quarter-end rebalancing among pension funds and other big investors. The recent swift advance in bond yields could set up money managers for big adjustments in their portfolios.\nThe Dow and the S&P 500 have risen 7.2% and 4.2%, respectively, so far in March. The tech-heavy Nasdaq, however, has dipped 1% this month as some investors jumped high-flying technology names amid rising yields.\nInvestors are awaiting updates from President Joe Biden about his infrastructure plan which could cost north of $3 trillion. The president is expected to unveil his plan when he travels to Pittsburgh on Wednesday and also detail how it would be paid for. White House press secretary Jen Psaki said SundayBiden plans to roll out two packagesin the coming months, the first covering infrastructure and the second covering health and family care.\n“The market isn’t placing very high odds on this infrastructure/tax blueprint coming to fruition and while Biden probably won’t get everything he’s asking for, Congressional Democrats and the White House are VERY intent on passing some substantial bills in the coming months,” Adam Crisafulli, founder of Vital Knowledge, said in a note.\nThe stock market is closed for the Good Friday holiday, but the March jobs report is still slated for release that morning. Economists expect 630,000 jobs were added in March, and the unemployment rate fell to 6% from 6.2%, according to Dow Jones.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":153,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":352337858,"gmtCreate":1616892383374,"gmtModify":1634523656498,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[得意]&nbsp;","listText":"[得意]&nbsp;","text":"[得意]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/352337858","repostId":"1141686975","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141686975","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":1616780260,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1141686975?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-27 01:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Zhihu Technology fall on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141686975","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02 each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO pri","content":"<p>Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02&nbsp;each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO price&nbsp;$9.5.Zhihu IPO prices at low end of the range, valuing company at about $5.3 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4672a089b4ebb0a889cbfbeb32b48594\" tg-width=\"1920\" tg-height=\"959\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Zhihu Inc.&nbsp;announced Friday the pricing of its initial public offering, at $9.50 per American depositary share, which was at the low end of the expected range.

Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively.

Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020. In early 2020, the company launched Content-Commerce solutions, which provide merchants and brands a one-stop shop for all of their sales and marketing needs, including marketing plans. We have assumed Content Commerce Solutions as a percentage of total revenue to jump from 10% in 2020 to 17.8% in 2021 and 32.3% in 2025.</p><p><b>Gross Margins</b></p><p>The company's gross margins improved from 46.6% in 2019 to 56.0% in 2020, driven by an overall improving business scalability.

We expect this ratio to improve further to 79% in 2021, 69.2% in 2022, and 57.2% in 2025. The bulk of the improvements in operating expenses is coming from lower SG&amp;A and R&amp;D expenses as a percentage of revenues in the next five years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c019cc86f4d4c1d9ffe15d3b4a4bfa75\" tg-width=\"772\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef629be32d2c34d625cb287ad648206d\" tg-width=\"757\" tg-height=\"488\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b9561a02993fbc88c2cad88e68c08730\" tg-width=\"920\" tg-height=\"485\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Company Background</b></p><p>At the end of 2020, Zhihu had more than 43.1 million cumulative content creators that contributed 315 million questions and answers. In 4Q 2020, the company had 75.7 million average monthly active users, up 33% YoY. One of the key strengths of the company is that it is recognized as one of the most trustworthy online content communities and regarded as providing one of the highest quality content in China. Zhihu has tried to capitalize on its large user base to provide numerous multimedia functions including live streaming, e-commerce, online education, and other video content.</p><p>In August 2019, Zhihu received $434 million in funding from leading investors including Baidu and Kuaishou Technology, valuing the company at $3.5 billion. Given that the company had $97 million in sales in 2019, this would suggest a P/S valuation multiple of 36x. If we take the same P/S multiple apply to the company's 2020 sales of $207 million, this would suggest an implied valuation of $7.5 billion.</p><p>Zhihu was originally developed as a question and answer online community in 2010. At the end of 2020, there were a total of 315 million Q&amp;As spanning more than 1,000 verticals and 571,000 topics.

The company's MAUs increased by 42.7% YoY to 68.5 million in 2020.

That's compared to 41% of non-investors who say the same thing.\n\"Part of it may have to do with expectations,\" said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at Bankrate. \"Newer investors may be trying to score big gains or time the market and the odds are not for long-term success with those endeavors.\"\nAt the same time, he said, retail investors have seen hedge funds and other sophisticated or wealthy investors treated differently, such as getting early access to initial public offerings and better trade execution.\n\"Newer investors are seeing those things, and that can sow the seeds of doubt about the integrity or fairness of the markets,\" McBride said.\nThe poll of 2,525 U.S. adults was taken in late February, about a month after a runup in so-called meme stocks, including Gamestop— whose share price peaked at $347 on Jan. 27 after trading at about $31 two weeks earlier. The surge was attributed to an army of Reddit investors forcing hedge funds that were banking on the stock dropping — known as short-selling — to instead buy shares at a higher price.\nAmid the frenzy, Robinhood, the popular trading application used by individual investors, restricted trades in Gamestop and some other stocks. The company was accused by its users and lawmakers of protecting hedge funds that were short sellers of those stocks. Robinhood said the move was made to meet regulatory requirements applying to financial reserves, not to benefit any particular group of investors.\nThe Bankrate survey also explored how individuals are investing now versus before the pandemic.\n“What we saw was that Reddit users were two times more likely to be investing more rather than less, compared to before the pandemic,” McBride said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":364,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":358546025,"gmtCreate":1616718749767,"gmtModify":1634524405925,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/358546025","repostId":"1132921453","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1132921453","pubTimestamp":1616717349,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1132921453?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-26 08:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow climbs 199 points in late-day rebound led by stocks benefiting from reopening","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1132921453","media":"cnbc","summary":"U.S. stocks staged a late-day comeback on Thursday, boosted by economic comeback plays as the market","content":"<div>\n<p>U.S. stocks staged a late-day comeback on Thursday, boosted by economic comeback plays as the market rebounded from a two-day losing streak.\nThe S&P 500 closed 0.5% higher at 3,909.52, wiping out a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/24/stock-market-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 199.42 points, or 0.6%, to 32,619.48 after losing as much as 348 points. The Nasdaq Composite also eked out a 0.1% gain to close at 12,977.68 as some major technology stocks reserved losses. Tesla rose 1.6%, while Apple closed in the green.\nStocks that are tied to a successful economic reopening such as airlines and cruise line operators led the intraday rebound. American Airlines and United gained more than 4% each, while Norwegian Cruise Line and Carnival both rose over 2%. Boeing climbed 3.3%.\nThe market experienced some weakness earlier in the day as Federal Reserve ChairmanJerome Powell hinted at one day starting to remove the stimulusthat has boosted the market during the pandemic.\n\"As we make substantial further progress toward our goals, we'll gradually roll back the amount of Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities we've bought,\" Powell told NPR's \"Morning Edition.\" \"We will very gradually over time and with great transparency, when the economy has all but fully recovered, we will be pulling back the support that we provided during emergency times.\"\nThursday's moves pared the major averages' week-to-date losses. The S&P 500 and the Dow are now down less than 0.1% each after hitting their record highs last week. The Nasdaq underperformed with a 1.8% loss this week.\nSome investors have been taking profits in their growth winners which led the market's rebound from the pandemic losses last year. Netflix has fallen 6.7% this month, while Tesla is down more than 5%. Pandemic winner Zoom Video has dropped nearly 16% in March.\n\"The weakness in technology stocks is undeniable, but it likely won't be a straight line down for the sector and there will be zigs and zags along the way,\" said David Bahnsen, chief investment officer at The Bahnsen Group. \"Tech stock valuations are too high and are screaming for a correction.\"\nInvestors pored over a better-than-expected reading on weekly jobless claims. The Labor Department said first-time claims for unemployment insurancetotaled 684,000 for the week ended March 20, lower than an estimate of 735,000 from economists surveyed by Dow Jones.\n\"The signs of strength from today's jobless claims read may actually have a perverse effect on the broader market,\" said Mike Loewengart, managing director of investment strategy at E-Trade.\"Meaning that if we continue to see the labor market make strides, this could translate into pressure on equities and on the Fed to reassess its accommodative stance.\"\nOil prices fell more than 4% Thursday as demand concerns rekindled with fresh coronavirus pandemic lockdowns.\nThe 10-year Treasury yield gained just 1 basis point to 1.64%.

Value-oriented shares on Wednesday closed flat, outpacing a 1.4% decline in growth stocks, which include tech shares.\nInvestors have focused on the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, pondering whether there is room for long-term interest rates to run, said David Kelly, chief global strategist at JPMorgan Asset Management.\n“We’re in a little bit of a lull here. We know that the economy is primed to begin to really accelerate in the second quarter,” Kelly said. “But we haven’t seen that acceleration yet so that’s what we’re waiting for.”\nAdding to an upward bias for most of the session was data showing U.S. factory activity picked up in early March amid strong growth in new orders. But supply chain disruptions continued to exert cost pressures on manufacturers, keeping inflation fears in focus.\n“Everybody’s bullish about the prospects of a recovery right now,” said David Yepez, lead equity analyst and portfolio manager at Exencial Wealth Advisors. “In order for the market to bottom we need to have more fear, and I don’t feel like the market has fear right now.”\nFinancials gained 0.4% and industrials rose 0.7%, while energy jumped 2.5% as crude prices rebounded from a 6% fall in the last session. [O/R]\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 3.09 points, or 0.01%, to 32,420.06. The S&P 500 lost 21.38 points, or 0.55%, to 3,889.14 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 265.81 points, or 2.01%, to 12,961.89.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 12.72 billion shares, compared with the 14.0 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.\nApple Inc, Tesla Inc, Amazon.com Inc, Facebook Inc and Microsoft Corp led decliners on the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq.\nIntel Corp retreated 2.3% after earlier gains as the company, in its efforts to expand chipmaking capacity, announced plans to spend as much as $20 billion to build two factories in Arizona and open its factories to outside customers.\nU.S.-listed shares of Taiwan Semiconductor dropped 5.2%, while semiconductor equipment makers Lam Research Corp, Applied Materials Inc and ASML Holding rose. Applied Materials was the third-biggest boost on the S&P 500, after oil giants Chevron Corp and Exxon Mobil Corp.\nBitcoin gained after Tesla’s founder, Elon Musk, said the company’s electric vehicles can now be bought using bitcoin and the option will be available outside the United States later this year.\nGameStop Corp tumbled 33.8% after the videogame retailer said it might cash in on a meteoric rise in its share price to fund its e-commerce expansion.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.32-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 3.17-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted 15 new 52-week highs and no new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 42 new highs and 128 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":146,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":351719030,"gmtCreate":1616632710420,"gmtModify":1634524841689,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[捂脸]&nbsp;","listText":"[捂脸]&nbsp;","text":"[捂脸]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/351719030","repostId":"1110970491","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1110970491","pubTimestamp":1616632658,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1110970491?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-25 08:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech and GameStop losses have traders wondering if retail investors are losing interest in market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110970491","media":"cnbc","summary":"It was a bad day for Cathie Wood.\nAnd it was a very strange trading day.\nFor weeks, stocks have been","content":"<div>\n<p>It was a bad day for Cathie Wood.\nAnd it was a very strange trading day.\nFor weeks, stocks have been held hostage to Treasury yields, particularly the 10-year.  As yields moved up, stocks, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/24/tech-and-gamestop-losses-have-traders-wondering-if-retail-investors-are-losing-interest-in-market.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

So what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? Google parent<b>Alphabet</b>(GOOGL),<b>CarMax</b>(KMX),<b>Regal Beloit</b>(RBC),<b>Westlake Chemical</b>(WLK) and<b>Applied Materials</b>(AMAT) are prime candidates.</p>\n<p>Since the coronavirus bear market, stocks rebounded powerfully. The strong action reflects rising confidence that the economy will eventually recover from the coronavirus. The stock market has managed to get back on track after a brief correction, when when the major indexes all dipped below their50-day moving averages.</p>\n<p>Now is a good time to get back into the market, but caution should be exercised. While the market uptrend has resumed, the stock market hasjust had a modestly down week. The Nasdaq essentially remains in a corrections, below its 50-day line with highly valued growth names still significantly damaged. The Dow Jones and S&amp;P 500 are holding above this key technical benchmark, but were pushed lower.</p>\n<p>The coronavirus pandemic remains a concern, though new coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and even deaths are falling sharply. President Joe Biden has signed the $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill. But while it provides aid to many Americans, there are concerns among some economists it could lead to inflation.</p>\n<p>Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has saidthat the central bank is committed to an \"all-in\" approach as it tries to nurse the economy back to health.</p>\n<p>So why do the stocks chosen stand out? Before turning to that question, it is important to consider how one goes about choosing a stock in the first place. Superior fundamentals and technical action, and buying at the right time, are all part of a shrewd investing formula.</p>\n<p>Best Stocks To Buy: The Crucial Ingredients</p>\n<p>Remember, there are thousands of stocks trading on the NYSE and Nasdaq. But you want to find the very best stocks right now to generate massive gains.</p>\n<p>TheCAN SLIM systemoffers clear guidelines on what you should be looking for. Invest in stocks with recent quarterly and annual earnings growth of at least 25%. Look for companies that have new, game-changing products and services. Also consider not-yet-profitable companies, often recent IPOs, that are generating tremendous revenue growth.</p>\n<p>IBD'sCAN SLIM Investing Systemhas a proven track record of significantly outperforming the S&amp;P 500. Outdoing this industry benchmark is key to generating exceptional returns over the long term.</p>\n<p>In addition, keep an eye on supply and demand for the stock itself, focus on leading stocks in top industry groups, and aim for stocks with strong institutional support.</p>\n<p>Once you have found a stock that fits the criteria, it is then time to turn to stock charts to plot agood entry point. You should wait for a stock toform a base, and then buy once it reaches abuy point, ideally in heavy volume. In many cases, a stock reaches aproper buy pointwhen it breaks above the original high on the left side of the base. More information on what a base is, and how charts can be used to&nbsp;win big on the stock market, can be found here.</p>\n<p>Don't Forget The M When Buying Stocks</p>\n<p>Never forget that theM in CAN SLIM stands for market. Most stocks, even the very best, will tend to follow the market direction. Invest when the stock market is in aconfirmed uptrendand move to cash when the stock market goes into a correction.</p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq and the S&amp;P 500 rallied strongly after recent pressure. The S&amp;P 500 and the Dow Jones have recaptured their50-day moving averages, but are meeting resistance. The Nasdaq also briefly traded above this key benchmark, but slipped back below it. Technology and growth stocks are still showing signs of weakness.</p>\n<p>It is now is a good time to get back into the market and buy fundamentally strong stocks coming out of proper chart bases. But this is no longer the powerful, growth stock rally of 2020.</p>\n<p>The stocks featured below are potential candidates.</p>\n<p>As you identify stocks, on a technical basis look for stocks with rising relative strength lines. Stocks that hold up amid tough conditions often bound to new highs once a market stabilizes.</p>\n<p>Remember, things can quickly change when it comes to the stock market. Make sure you don't miss out on a rally by keeping a close eye on themarket trend page here.</p>\n<p>Best Stocks To Buy Or Watch</p>\n<p>Now let's look at Google stock, CarMax stock, RBC stock, Westlake Chemical stock and AMAT stock in more detail. An important consideration is that these stocks all boast impressive relative strength.</p>\n<p>Google Stock</p>\n<p>Google parent Alphabet is near abuy pointof 2,145.24, as athree-weeks-tighthas evolved into a flat base, according toMarketSmith chart analysis. The entry is just above the mid-February all-time high.</p>\n<p>Google stock has been trading around its 21-day exponential moving average and is just above its 10-week line.</p>\n<p>Therelative strength lineforGOOGL stockis near a record high. This gauges a stock's performance compared to the S&amp;P 500. If Alphabet's RS line spikes again, it will be a sign the stock is ready to push higher still.</p>\n<p>GOOGL stock has a very strong&nbsp; IBD Composite Rating of 94. That puts it in the top 6% of stocks tracked overall. Earnings are stronger than stock market performance, however. Nevertheless, the stock is up more than 16% so far this year.</p>\n<p>Google stock&nbsp;should benefit from a rebound in digital advertising as coronavirus vaccinations expand. Stock buybacks are another bright spot. Cloud computing holds promise, but remains an unprofitable business for Alphabet for now.</p>\n<p>The tech giant has a Relative Strength Rating of 66. That means it has outperformed 66% of stocks tracked in terms of price performance over the past 12 months.</p>\n<p>In recent years, Google stock has only slightly outpaced the S&amp;P 500, but that outperformance has picked up in recent months, as its RS line shows. Google has done exceptionally well vs. many tech stocks over the past few weeks.</p>\n<p>Earnings are a key strength, which is highlighted by its EPS Rating of 93 out of a best-possible 99.

So what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? Google parentAlphabet(GOOGL),CarMax(KMX),Regal Beloit(RBC),Westlake Chemical(WLK) andApplied Materials(AMAT) are prime candidates.\nSince the coronavirus bear market, stocks rebounded powerfully. The strong action reflects rising confidence that the economy will eventually recover from the coronavirus. The stock market has managed to get back on track after a brief correction, when when the major indexes all dipped below their50-day moving averages.\nNow is a good time to get back into the market, but caution should be exercised. While the market uptrend has resumed, the stock market hasjust had a modestly down week. The Nasdaq essentially remains in a corrections, below its 50-day line with highly valued growth names still significantly damaged. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 are holding above this key technical benchmark, but were pushed lower.\nThe coronavirus pandemic remains a concern, though new coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and even deaths are falling sharply. President Joe Biden has signed the $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill. But while it provides aid to many Americans, there are concerns among some economists it could lead to inflation.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell has saidthat the central bank is committed to an \"all-in\" approach as it tries to nurse the economy back to health.\nSo why do the stocks chosen stand out? Before turning to that question, it is important to consider how one goes about choosing a stock in the first place. Superior fundamentals and technical action, and buying at the right time, are all part of a shrewd investing formula.\nBest Stocks To Buy: The Crucial Ingredients\nRemember, there are thousands of stocks trading on the NYSE and Nasdaq. But you want to find the very best stocks right now to generate massive gains.\nTheCAN SLIM systemoffers clear guidelines on what you should be looking for. Invest in stocks with recent quarterly and annual earnings growth of at least 25%. Look for companies that have new, game-changing products and services. Also consider not-yet-profitable companies, often recent IPOs, that are generating tremendous revenue growth.\nIBD'sCAN SLIM Investing Systemhas a proven track record of significantly outperforming the S&P 500. Outdoing this industry benchmark is key to generating exceptional returns over the long term.\nIn addition, keep an eye on supply and demand for the stock itself, focus on leading stocks in top industry groups, and aim for stocks with strong institutional support.\nOnce you have found a stock that fits the criteria, it is then time to turn to stock charts to plot agood entry point. You should wait for a stock toform a base, and then buy once it reaches abuy point, ideally in heavy volume. In many cases, a stock reaches aproper buy pointwhen it breaks above the original high on the left side of the base. More information on what a base is, and how charts can be used to win big on the stock market, can be found here.\nDon't Forget The M When Buying Stocks\nNever forget that theM in CAN SLIM stands for market. Most stocks, even the very best, will tend to follow the market direction. Invest when the stock market is in aconfirmed uptrendand move to cash when the stock market goes into a correction.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq and the S&P 500 rallied strongly after recent pressure. The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones have recaptured their50-day moving averages, but are meeting resistance. The Nasdaq also briefly traded above this key benchmark, but slipped back below it. Technology and growth stocks are still showing signs of weakness.\nIt is now is a good time to get back into the market and buy fundamentally strong stocks coming out of proper chart bases. But this is no longer the powerful, growth stock rally of 2020.\nThe stocks featured below are potential candidates.\nAs you identify stocks, on a technical basis look for stocks with rising relative strength lines. Stocks that hold up amid tough conditions often bound to new highs once a market stabilizes.\nRemember, things can quickly change when it comes to the stock market. Make sure you don't miss out on a rally by keeping a close eye on themarket trend page here.\nBest Stocks To Buy Or Watch\nNow let's look at Google stock, CarMax stock, RBC stock, Westlake Chemical stock and AMAT stock in more detail.

The S&P 500 rose 0.7% to 3,940.59, breaking a two-day losing streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 103.23 points, or 0.3%, to 32,731.20.\nShares of Tesla added 2.3% as rates fell and as Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest put out a new price target on the stock which calls for it toquadruple in four years. Apple, Microsoft and Netflix all gained at least 2%, while Amazon and Facebook climbed more than 1% each.\nThe 10-year Treasury yield fell 5 basis points to around 1.68%, after touching a 14-month high last week (1 basis point equals 0.01%). The move higher in rates in recent weeks has raised concerns about valuations on growth and tech stocks.\n“After the reopening exuberance fades and interest rates level off, investors will rotate back into large cap technology stocks with strong free cash flow, recurring revenues and increasing user penetration,” said Richard Saperstein, chief investment officer at Treasury Partners.\nIndustrials got a boost afterthe New York Times reported thatPresident Joe Biden is eyeing an infrastructure deal with as much as $3 trillion spending to boost the economy. Most Wall Street firms including Goldman Sachs were expecting around $2 trillion on infrastructure spending. Shares of Caterpillar traded into the green following the news and closed the session 0.3% higher.\nThe major averages rebounded from a losing week when a jump in bond yields pressured the high-growth stocks, which had led the indexes back from their pandemic-sparked sell-off last year. The Dow and S&P 500 fell 0.5% and 0.8% last week, respectively, breaking two-week winning streaks. The Nasdaq lost 0.8% during the same period.\nStill, optimism about the markets and the economic recovery has been growing as vaccines roll out across the country, with the pace of Americans getting shots climbing in recent weeks.\nU.S. trial datareleased Mondayshowed the Covid vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford is 79% effective in preventing symptomatic illness and 100% effective against severe disease and hospitalization.\nMany on Wall Street believe bond yields’ rebound to pre-pandemic levels shouldn’t be too alarming given the magnitude of the economic recovery from pandemic-triggered recession.\n“We believe the recent rise in nominal government bond yields, led by real yields, is justified and reflects markets awakening to positive developments on the faster-than-expected activity restart combined with historically large fiscal stimulus – all helped by a ramp-up in vaccinations in the U.S.,” Wei Li, global chief investment strategist at BlackRock Investment Institute, said in a note.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":206,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":359111897,"gmtCreate":1616373341219,"gmtModify":1634526218138,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[抠鼻]&nbsp;","listText":"[抠鼻]&nbsp;","text":"[抠鼻]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/359111897","repostId":"1162363864","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162363864","pubTimestamp":1616372849,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1162363864?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-22 08:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GameStop, Adobe, Honeywell, Darden Restaurants, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1162363864","media":"barrons","summary":"The earnings calendar is again sparse this week, during a quiet period between earnings seasons.

Tesla slipped nearly 7%. The S&P 500 slid 1.5% to 3,915.46, falling from a record closing high reached in the previous session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 153.07 points, or 0.5%, to 32,862.30 after hitting a new intraday record earlier in the day amid a rally in bank stocks.\nThe 10-year Treasury yield jumped 11 basis points above 1.75% at its session high, reaching its highest level since January 2020. The 30-year rate also climbed 6 basis points at one point, breaching the 2.5% level for the first time since August 2019. The jump in bond yields came after the Federal Reserve expressed its willingness to allow an overshoot in inflation. Rising rates can have an outsized impact on growth stocks as they make their future returns less valuable today.\n“Risk of rates rising too fast remains a key concern,” said Craig Johnson, technical market strategist at Piper Sandler. “Buying pressure has not been equal over the last several weeks as growth stocks lag behind due to headwinds from higher interest rates.”\nBank stocks outperformed as higher interest rates tend to improve their profit margins. Banks can earn more from the widening gap between the rate they borrow at in the short term and the rate they lend out at in the long term. U.S. Bancorp and Wells Fargo popped 3.3% and 2.4%, respectively. JPMorgan jumped 1.7%, while Bank of America gained 2.6%.\nInvestors also digested a mixed bag of economic data Thursday.Weekly initial jobless claims totaled 770,000 for the week ended March 13, worse than an estimate of 700,000, according to economists polled by Dow Jones.\nMeanwhile, the Philadelphia Federal Reserve’s manufacturing index showed a reading of 51.8, well exceeding Dow Jones consensus of 22.0 and hitting the highest level for the gauge since 1973.\nThe energy sector was the biggest loser with a 4.7% decline Thursday amid a drop in oil prices. WTI crude futures slid more than 7% to $60 per barrel, falling for a fifth straight day and suffering its worst day since September.\nThe blue-chip Dow closed above 33,000 for the first time on Wednesday after the Fed said it does not expect to hike interest rates through 2023.\nFed Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that the central bank wants to see inflation consistently above its 2% target and material improvement in the U.S. labor market before considering changes to rates or its monthly bond purchases.\n“By saying that they’re willing to let inflation run hot at a time inflation concerns are rising is another way for the Fed to say that they are willing to let long-term interest rates rise further,” said Matt Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak.\nThe Fed upgraded its economic outlook, expecting to see gross domestic product grow 6.5% in 2021 and inflation rise 2.2% this year as measured by personal consumption expenditures. The central bank’s stated goal is to keep inflation at 2% over the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":346760726,"gmtCreate":1618114142065,"gmtModify":1634294834893,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/346760726","repostId":"1142324412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142324412","pubTimestamp":1617982207,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1142324412?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-09 23:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"XPeng Inc.: A Reawakening","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142324412","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.Feared chip shortage  was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese go","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.</li>\n <li>Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.</li>\n <li>Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.</li>\n <li>Feared chip shortage (i.e. supply disruption) was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e0f3343d69719839f9b8f1d337c3984\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\"><span>Photo by Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Introduction</b></p>\n<p>The stock price of&nbsp;XPEV&nbsp;has been converging with the performance of the S&amp;P 500 since March 2021, as compared to its massive outperformance in 4Q2020.

The following points suggest specific positives for XPEV that remain intact despite relatively ebbing momentum on the stock's price (as compared to 4Q2020):</p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Deliveries met despite fears on chip shortage.</b>While the stock's price momentum appears to have ebbed, recent news continues to remain positive. At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked&nbsp;in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered&nbsp;20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.</li>\n <li><b>Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.</b>XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.</li>\n <li><b>Listing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.</b>Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and&nbsp;LI&nbsp;intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Of note, in late March, XPEV held an&nbsp;autonomous driving expedition&nbsp;covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the&nbsp;competitive landscape&nbsp;against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results&nbsp;performed better&nbsp;than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.</p>\n<p><b>XPEV's improving financials</b></p>\n<p>Now that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.</p>\n<p>Another point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities &amp; equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.</p>\n<p><i>XPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f8258dce0cc10e8118a23afce7655bed\" tg-width=\"726\" tg-height=\"737\"><span>*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha</span></p>\n<p><b>XPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle</b></p>\n<p>XPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers. On a TTM P/S, XPEV is near the middle although its FWD P/S is trading at a premium. However, there could be a general re-rating of the P/S of the sector if the Chinese EV manufacturers reach breakeven in 2021 and record positive profits (our base case belief, given the prevailing trend in XPEV's improving operating margins). This will then allow better price discovery when the companies can then be valued on their P/E ratios.</p>\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa975ce545e950a20f809bcc7f698ef6\" tg-width=\"911\" tg-height=\"594\">\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr></tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p><b>Conclusion and Risks</b></p>\n<p>XPEV's stock price may benefit from two key catalysts: (1) expansion of manufacturing facility in Wuhan, which will concretely raise visibility of revenue growth which is expected to double; (2) a valuation regime change as it progresses from a loss making company to a profitable one, expected by this year. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the valuation is not lofty as compared to price levels in 4Q2020, having fallen over the last couple of months.</p>\n<p>Competition may exist and remain intense, but given the large size of China's market and that there are only a couple of notable players (i.e. NIO, LI), the market remains largely an oligopoly which allows XPEV to retain pricing power.</p>\n<p>Much feared risks of execution in the past appear to have materialized but not in a big way, i.e. the previously expected chip shortage. Given the progression to a post-COVID economy, supply chain links should improve and reduce similar risks in the future.</p>\n<p>On a standalone basis, XPEV's prospects appear bright, and now the key hurdle is whether the NASDAQ will find momentum and exceed previous highs. The base case for this should lean towards the positive as the market is merely in the first year of the economic recovery after the pandemic. Recent price consolidation appears to have created a technical setup for a reawakening of price momentum as consumer activity revives post-pandemic.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","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>XPeng Inc.: A Reawakening</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\">\nXPeng Inc.: A Reawakening\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-09 23:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4418326-xpeng-inc-reawakening><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nValuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.\nRecent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.\nCompany could breakeven and ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4418326-xpeng-inc-reawakening\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"XPEV":"小鹏汽车"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4418326-xpeng-inc-reawakening","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1142324412","content_text":"Summary\n\nValuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.\nRecent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.\nCompany could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.\nFeared chip shortage (i.e. supply disruption) was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.\n\nPhoto by Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nIntroduction\nThe stock price of XPEV has been converging with the performance of the S&P 500 since March 2021, as compared to its massive outperformance in 4Q2020.

At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered 20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.\nGovernment support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.\nListing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and LI intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.\n\nOf note, in late March, XPEV held an autonomous driving expedition covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the competitive landscape against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results performed better than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.\nXPEV's improving financials\nNow that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.\nAnother point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.\nMeanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities & equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.\nXPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation\n*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha\nXPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle\nXPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers. On a TTM P/S, XPEV is near the middle although its FWD P/S is trading at a premium. However, there could be a general re-rating of the P/S of the sector if the Chinese EV manufacturers reach breakeven in 2021 and record positive profits (our base case belief, given the prevailing trend in XPEV's improving operating margins). This will then allow better price discovery when the companies can then be valued on their P/E ratios.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConclusion and Risks\nXPEV's stock price may benefit from two key catalysts: (1) expansion of manufacturing facility in Wuhan, which will concretely raise visibility of revenue growth which is expected to double; (2) a valuation regime change as it progresses from a loss making company to a profitable one, expected by this year. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the valuation is not lofty as compared to price levels in 4Q2020, having fallen over the last couple of months.\nCompetition may exist and remain intense, but given the large size of China's market and that there are only a couple of notable players (i.e. NIO, LI), the market remains largely an oligopoly which allows XPEV to retain pricing power.\nMuch feared risks of execution in the past appear to have materialized but not in a big way, i.e. the previously expected chip shortage. Given the progression to a post-COVID economy, supply chain links should improve and reduce similar risks in the future.\nOn a standalone basis, XPEV's prospects appear bright, and now the key hurdle is whether the NASDAQ will find momentum and exceed previous highs. The base case for this should lean towards the positive as the market is merely in the first year of the economic recovery after the pandemic. Recent price consolidation appears to have created a technical setup for a reawakening of price momentum as consumer activity revives post-pandemic.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":564,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":357160925,"gmtCreate":1617247095667,"gmtModify":1634521820797,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please leave a comment [得意]&nbsp;","listText":"Please leave a comment [得意]&nbsp;","text":"Please leave a comment [得意]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/357160925","repostId":"1166613273","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166613273","pubTimestamp":1617246606,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1166613273?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-01 11:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Frontier Airlines IPO Raises $570 Million at Low End","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166613273","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Frontier Group Holdings Inc., which operates budget carrier Frontier Airlines, priced","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Frontier Group Holdings Inc., which operates budget carrier Frontier Airlines, priced its U.S. initial public offering at the bottom of a marketed range, according to people familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>The company’s shares sold for $19 apiece, according to the people, who asked not to be identified because the information wasn’t public yet.

The economy is reopening and, as a result,bond yields are rising, putting pressure on high-growth stocks.Futures on the Nasdaq Composite Index, home to many highflying tech stocks, are down 1.6%.Dow Jones Industrial Averagefutures, on the other hand, are flat.Higher yields hurt richly valued, fast-growing companies more than others for a couple of reasons. One, they makes funding growth more expensive. Two, high- growth companies are expected generate most of their cash far in the future. That cash is a little less valuable in present terms when rates are high, compared with when rates are low. In a higher-rate environment, investors have more options to earn interest today, which puts pressure on high-growth stocks’ valuations.A Friday dip, however,doesn’t mean the end of the bull market in Tesla, EV stocks or the Nasdaq. Getting the economy back on its feet is a good thing. Investors just need a chance to adjust to the changing landscape.“There’s a good chance you, your families and friends will be able to get together in your backyard or in your neighborhood and have a cookout …and celebrate Independence Day,” Biden said. That is great news.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":91,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":350699986,"gmtCreate":1616198133345,"gmtModify":1634526800624,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[捂脸]&nbsp;","listText":"[捂脸]&nbsp;","text":"[捂脸]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350699986","repostId":"1199154789","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199154789","pubTimestamp":1616164372,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199154789?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-19 22:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed Disappoints Market, Lets SLR Relief Expire: What Happens Next","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199154789","media":"zerohedge","summary":"As washinted at, and discussed in depth here,the Fed decided - under political pressure from progressive Democrats such asElizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown- to let the temporary Supplementary Leverage Ratio  exemption expire as scheduled on March 31, the one year anniversary of the rule change.The federal bank regulatory agencies today announced that the temporary change to the supplementary leverage ratio, or SLR, for depository institutions issued on May 15, 2020, will expire as scheduled on ","content":"<p>As washinted at, and discussed in depth here,the Fed decided - under political pressure from progressive Democrats such asElizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown- to let the temporary Supplementary Leverage Ratio (SLR) exemption expire as scheduled on March 31, the one year anniversary of the rule change.</p><blockquote>The federal bank regulatory agencies today announced that the temporary change to the supplementary leverage ratio, or SLR, for depository institutions issued on May 15, 2020, will expire as scheduled on March 31, 2021.The temporary change was made to provide flexibility for depository institutions to provide credit to households and businesses in light of the COVID-19 event.</blockquote><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b822960da59d651f093b5113cd0c3fd0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"319\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">This outcome is theone (again) correctly predictedby former NY Fed guru Zoltan Pozsar who following the FOMC said that \"the fact that the Fed made this adjustment practically preemptively – the o/n RRP facility is not being used at the moment, so there are no capacity constraints yet, while repo and bill yields aren’t trading negative yet –<b>suggests that the Fed is “foaming the runway” for the end of SLR exemption</b>.\"</p><p>Knowing well this would be a very hot button issue for the market, the Fed published thefollowing statementto ease trader nerves, noting that while the SLR special treatment will expire on March 31, the Fed is \"inviting public comment on several potential SLR modifications\" and furthermore, \"<b>Board may need to address the current design and calibration of the SLR over time to prevent strains from developing that could both constrain economic growth and undermine financial stability</b>\" - in short, if yields spike, the Fed will re-introduce the SLR without delay:</p><blockquote>The Federal Reserve Board on Friday announced that the temporary change to its supplementary leverage ratio, or SLR, for bank holding companies will expire as scheduled on March 31. <b>Additionally, the Board will shortly seek comment on measures to adjust the SLR.

Millions of Americans were out of work, stores were physically shut down and there was a growing list of retail bankruptcies. Last June, the World Bank predicted Covid-19 would gut the global economy, triggering the “worst recession since World War II.”</p><p>Economists are far more optimistic these days. With vaccines making their way into arms and life beginning to return to a sense of normalcy,the U.S. economy is projected to boomin the second quarter. Consumer spending is expected to lead the way in making the economy “sizzle.” These seven hot stocks are<i>Portfolio Grader</i>“A-rated” picks.</p><p>Each is set to reward investors as an explosion of consumerism fuels growth:</p><ul><li><b>Boston Beer Company</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>SAM</u></b>)</li><li><b>BRP Group</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>DOOO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Hain Celestial</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>HAIN</u></b>)</li><li><b>Nio</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>NIO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Nu Skin Enterprises</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>NUS</u></b>)</li><li><b>Simply Good Foods</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>SMPL</u></b>)</li><li><b>Sony</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>SONY</u></b>)</li></ul><p>If you’re eyeing any of these hot stocks, don’t wait too long. While previously untouchabletech stocks have struggled in 2021, some of these have already kicked off impressive growth trajectories this year.</p><p><b>1、Hot Stocks: Boston Beer Company (SAM)</b></p><p>2020 was a year marked by restaurant closures, cancelled vacations, requests for people to self-isolate and frowned-upon social gatherings. Not great news for a beer company, you would think.</p><p>However, despite the challenging circumstances, Boston Beer Company continued its streak ofquarterly double-digit volume growth throughout the year.In its fourth quarter, the company reported shipments up 54% year-over-year, while revenue was up 53%. The company is starting out 2021 by adding Truly Iced Tea hard seltzer to its established brands, including Samuel Adams, Twisted Tea and Dogfish Head.</p><p>SAM stock posted an impressive gain of 163% in 2020. It has followed that up with a gain of 30% so far in 2021. With restaurants and bars re-opening, backyard BBQs back on and summer vacations looking like a possibility, look for that growth to continue.</p><p><b>2、BRP Group (DOOO)</b></p><p>BRP Group owns a long list of brands that are very well-known among outdoor activities enthusiasts. The company makes Ski-Doo snowmobiles, Evinrude outboard boat engines, Can-Am three-wheel motorcycles, Sea-Doo watercraft and others.</p><p>All of these products have one things in common: their market is primarily recreational. When the economy is sputtering and people are laid off, big-ticket recreational purchases suffer. Temporarily shuttered showrooms don’t help. Neither does having to shut down manufacturing facilities during Covid-19 outbreaks.</p><p>The impact of the pandemic was felt by BRP Group, which saw itsQ2 revenue drop 15.5% YoY.</p><p>DOOO stock took a big hit early last year, but rallied as the summer approached. It closed at a new high of $32.58 last November, marking 121% growth over six months. With the economy heating up along with the weather andstimulus checks arriving in the mail, DOOO stock is positioned for another hot summer of growth. In fact it may be one of the top hot stocks on the list.</p><p><b>3、Hain Celestial(HAIN)</b></p><p>When we were in lockdown, trying to save money because of layoffs, and/or avoiding crowds in grocery stores in 2020, food was about getting in the essentials. People were fighting overbasics like flour!</p><p>Now that we’re in recovery, consumers can afford to be pickier. In addition, after a year of the pandemic,many people have gained weightand are concerned about their health.</p><p>That sets the stage for Hain Celestial to make big gains in the supermarket. The company offers a wide range of food brands, many of them aimed at healthy eaters. You’ll find names like Avalon Organics, Celestial Seasonings, Earth’s Best Organic, Health Valley and Yves Veggie Cuisine under the Hain Celestial umbrella.</p><p>After a four-year slide that saw HAIN stock shed three quarters of its value, the company’s fortunes turned around in 2019. In 2020, that accelerated. So far in 2021, shares are up 12% and that trend is only going to expand as health-conscious consumers open their wallets.</p><p><b>4、Nio (NIO)</b></p><p>Don’t make the mistake of leaving China out of the equation. Yes, the company makes many of the products that American consumers are expecting to be shelling out for. But Chinese consumers are also a force to be reckoned with. That country was the first to recover from the pandemic, and it’s the first to be experiencing a big economic rebound.</p><p>Chinese consumers aren’t just buying clothes and electronics. They’re buying big-ticket items, including cars. EV sales are on fire in the U.S. and they are also surging in popularity in China. Chinese EV pioneer Nio wasstruggling to survive in 2019. In 2020, it fixed its quality control issues, released new models, and introduced a popular Battery-as-a-Service model.</p><p>Nio EVs are an aspirational purchase for affluent Chinese consumers, and they have been snapping up the cars. In March, that amounted to an all-time record 7,257 EVs delivered for the company — up 373% YoY.</p><p>NIO stock neared $63 in February (it closed off 2019 below $2.50), before being caught up in the tech stock selloff. With shares now around $40, NIO stock is a big opportunity. It’s not only one of the hot stocks to take advantage of the explosion in consumer spending, it’s also a great pick to ride the EV wave.</p><p><b>5、Nu Skin (NUS)</b></p><p>After a year of avoiding crowds, wearing masks and often working from home, the beauty industry was upended by the pandemic. Products like lipstick saw sales plummet. However, skin care was in. The market was already on the rise, but concerns like “maskne” — that’s acne caused by wearing a mask for hours at a time — really helped to push skin care to the forefront.</p><p>NuSkin primarily specializes in skin care and anti-aging regimes including cleansers, toners, peels, creams and even $300+ powered devices for home spa treatments. Much of that is sold directly by the company, online. In the fourth quarter,Nu Skin sold $748.2 million worth of these home skin care treatments. That’s a 28% YoY increase. Q4 earnings of $1.40 per share were up 94% and smashed Wall Street estimates.</p><p>Over the past 12 months, NUS stock is up 138%. It’s on a trajectory that shows no sign of levelling out any time soon.</p><p><b>6、Simply Good Foods (SMPL)</b></p><p>After a year of snacking and eating comfort food, Americans have paid the price. According to a survey published on<i>WebMD</i>,76% of Americans packed on the pounds during the pandemic. The so-called “the quarantine 15” is real. Being able to dress casual isn’t the only reason why sweatpants have been so popular.</p><p>Simply Good Foods brands owns two popular weight loss and nutritional snacking brands: Atkins and Quest. These saw softer sales during the pandemic.The company noted the effect of&nbsp;“temporary softer consumer interest in weight management during COVID-19 era along with lower on-the-go usage occasions.”</p><p>However, consumers have proven they’re willing to spend money to get rid of extra weight — especially if they can do so without having to spend hours at the gym or give up on snacking altogether. In addition, as the country re-opens and workers start moving back to the office, on-the-go snacking will begin again. That’s a recipe for growth for Simply Good Foods. SMPL stock has posted a gain of 88% over the past 12 months. As sales ramp back up, it’s in a great position to continue that growth.</p><p><b>7、Sony (SONY)</b></p><p>Sony still makes many of the gadgets the company used to be known for, including TVs and audio equipment. It still has a thriving image sensor and camera business. Believe it or not, the company isstill in the smartphone business. It has valuable movie and music businesses as well. But all of these pale in comparison to video games.</p><p>Video game consoles, Sony video games and membership fees for gaming servicesaccounted for over 40% of the company’s profit last year.</p><p>One of 2020’s must-have purchases was the Sony PlayStation 5 next-gen game console. Despite only being launched in November, the company sold 4.5 million of them last year. Four months into 2021, PS5 consoles remain difficult to find on store shelves. An industry-wide processor shortage isn’t helping, but the fact is the PS5 is hot.

Millions of Americans were out of work, stores were physically shut down and there was a growing list of retail bankruptcies. Last June, the World Bank predicted Covid-19 would gut the global economy, triggering the “worst recession since World War II.”Economists are far more optimistic these days. With vaccines making their way into arms and life beginning to return to a sense of normalcy,the U.S. economy is projected to boomin the second quarter. Consumer spending is expected to lead the way in making the economy “sizzle.” These seven hot stocks arePortfolio Grader“A-rated” picks.Each is set to reward investors as an explosion of consumerism fuels growth:Boston Beer Company (NYSE:SAM)BRP Group (NASDAQ:DOOO)Hain Celestial (NASDAQ:HAIN)Nio (NYSE:NIO)Nu Skin Enterprises (NYSE:NUS)Simply Good Foods (NASDAQ:SMPL)Sony (NYSE:SONY)If you’re eyeing any of these hot stocks, don’t wait too long. While previously untouchabletech stocks have struggled in 2021, some of these have already kicked off impressive growth trajectories this year.1、Hot Stocks: Boston Beer Company (SAM)2020 was a year marked by restaurant closures, cancelled vacations, requests for people to self-isolate and frowned-upon social gatherings. Not great news for a beer company, you would think.However, despite the challenging circumstances, Boston Beer Company continued its streak ofquarterly double-digit volume growth throughout the year.In its fourth quarter, the company reported shipments up 54% year-over-year, while revenue was up 53%. The company is starting out 2021 by adding Truly Iced Tea hard seltzer to its established brands, including Samuel Adams, Twisted Tea and Dogfish Head.SAM stock posted an impressive gain of 163% in 2020. It has followed that up with a gain of 30% so far in 2021. With restaurants and bars re-opening, backyard BBQs back on and summer vacations looking like a possibility, look for that growth to continue.2、BRP Group (DOOO)BRP Group owns a long list of brands that are very well-known among outdoor activities enthusiasts. The company makes Ski-Doo snowmobiles, Evinrude outboard boat engines, Can-Am three-wheel motorcycles, Sea-Doo watercraft and others.All of these products have one things in common: their market is primarily recreational. When the economy is sputtering and people are laid off, big-ticket recreational purchases suffer. Temporarily shuttered showrooms don’t help. Neither does having to shut down manufacturing facilities during Covid-19 outbreaks.The impact of the pandemic was felt by BRP Group, which saw itsQ2 revenue drop 15.5% YoY.DOOO stock took a big hit early last year, but rallied as the summer approached. It closed at a new high of $32.58 last November, marking 121% growth over six months. With the economy heating up along with the weather andstimulus checks arriving in the mail, DOOO stock is positioned for another hot summer of growth. In fact it may be one of the top hot stocks on the list.3、Hain Celestial(HAIN)When we were in lockdown, trying to save money because of layoffs, and/or avoiding crowds in grocery stores in 2020, food was about getting in the essentials. People were fighting overbasics like flour!Now that we’re in recovery, consumers can afford to be pickier. In addition, after a year of the pandemic,many people have gained weightand are concerned about their health.That sets the stage for Hain Celestial to make big gains in the supermarket. The company offers a wide range of food brands, many of them aimed at healthy eaters. You’ll find names like Avalon Organics, Celestial Seasonings, Earth’s Best Organic, Health Valley and Yves Veggie Cuisine under the Hain Celestial umbrella.After a four-year slide that saw HAIN stock shed three quarters of its value, the company’s fortunes turned around in 2019. In 2020, that accelerated. So far in 2021, shares are up 12% and that trend is only going to expand as health-conscious consumers open their wallets.4、Nio (NIO)Don’t make the mistake of leaving China out of the equation. Yes, the company makes many of the products that American consumers are expecting to be shelling out for. But Chinese consumers are also a force to be reckoned with. That country was the first to recover from the pandemic, and it’s the first to be experiencing a big economic rebound.Chinese consumers aren’t just buying clothes and electronics. They’re buying big-ticket items, including cars. EV sales are on fire in the U.S. and they are also surging in popularity in China. Chinese EV pioneer Nio wasstruggling to survive in 2019. In 2020, it fixed its quality control issues, released new models, and introduced a popular Battery-as-a-Service model.Nio EVs are an aspirational purchase for affluent Chinese consumers, and they have been snapping up the cars. In March, that amounted to an all-time record 7,257 EVs delivered for the company — up 373% YoY.NIO stock neared $63 in February (it closed off 2019 below $2.50), before being caught up in the tech stock selloff. With shares now around $40, NIO stock is a big opportunity. It’s not only one of the hot stocks to take advantage of the explosion in consumer spending, it’s also a great pick to ride the EV wave.5、Nu Skin (NUS)After a year of avoiding crowds, wearing masks and often working from home, the beauty industry was upended by the pandemic. Products like lipstick saw sales plummet. However, skin care was in. The market was already on the rise, but concerns like “maskne” — that’s acne caused by wearing a mask for hours at a time — really helped to push skin care to the forefront.NuSkin primarily specializes in skin care and anti-aging regimes including cleansers, toners, peels, creams and even $300+ powered devices for home spa treatments. Much of that is sold directly by the company, online. In the fourth quarter,Nu Skin sold $748.2 million worth of these home skin care treatments. That’s a 28% YoY increase. Q4 earnings of $1.40 per share were up 94% and smashed Wall Street estimates.Over the past 12 months, NUS stock is up 138%. It’s on a trajectory that shows no sign of levelling out any time soon.6、Simply Good Foods (SMPL)After a year of snacking and eating comfort food, Americans have paid the price. According to a survey published onWebMD,76% of Americans packed on the pounds during the pandemic. The so-called “the quarantine 15” is real. Being able to dress casual isn’t the only reason why sweatpants have been so popular.Simply Good Foods brands owns two popular weight loss and nutritional snacking brands: Atkins and Quest. These saw softer sales during the pandemic.The company noted the effect of “temporary softer consumer interest in weight management during COVID-19 era along with lower on-the-go usage occasions.”However, consumers have proven they’re willing to spend money to get rid of extra weight — especially if they can do so without having to spend hours at the gym or give up on snacking altogether. In addition, as the country re-opens and workers start moving back to the office, on-the-go snacking will begin again. That’s a recipe for growth for Simply Good Foods. SMPL stock has posted a gain of 88% over the past 12 months. As sales ramp back up, it’s in a great position to continue that growth.7、Sony (SONY)Sony still makes many of the gadgets the company used to be known for, including TVs and audio equipment. It still has a thriving image sensor and camera business. Believe it or not, the company isstill in the smartphone business. It has valuable movie and music businesses as well. But all of these pale in comparison to video games.Video game consoles, Sony video games and membership fees for gaming servicesaccounted for over 40% of the company’s profit last year.One of 2020’s must-have purchases was the Sony PlayStation 5 next-gen game console. Despite only being launched in November, the company sold 4.5 million of them last year. Four months into 2021, PS5 consoles remain difficult to find on store shelves. An industry-wide processor shortage isn’t helping, but the fact is the PS5 is hot. With the console just starting its life-cycle, look for Sony to be enjoying years of benefits, including sales of games, accessories and gaming memberships.After a rough 12 years, from 2000 to 2012 (during which shares lost over 90% of their value), SONY stock has been posting solid growth. That includes a 82% gain over the past 12 months. With gamers snapping up new PlayStation consoles at $399 and $499 a pop, look for this hot stock to be a big performer for the foreseeable future.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":411,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":351944254,"gmtCreate":1616557837578,"gmtModify":1634525208431,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/351944254","repostId":"1114012318","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114012318","pubTimestamp":1616556732,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1114012318?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-24 11:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These Are The 5 Best Stocks To Buy And Watch Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114012318","media":"investors","summary":"Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard","content":"<p>Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. So what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? Google parent<b>Alphabet</b>(GOOGL),<b>CarMax</b>(KMX),<b>Regal Beloit</b>(RBC),<b>Westlake Chemical</b>(WLK) and<b>Applied Materials</b>(AMAT) are prime candidates.</p>\n<p>Since the coronavirus bear market, stocks rebounded powerfully. The strong action reflects rising confidence that the economy will eventually recover from the coronavirus. The stock market has managed to get back on track after a brief correction, when when the major indexes all dipped below their50-day moving averages.</p>\n<p>Now is a good time to get back into the market, but caution should be exercised. While the market uptrend has resumed, the stock market hasjust had a modestly down week. The Nasdaq essentially remains in a corrections, below its 50-day line with highly valued growth names still significantly damaged. The Dow Jones and S&amp;P 500 are holding above this key technical benchmark, but were pushed lower.</p>\n<p>The coronavirus pandemic remains a concern, though new coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and even deaths are falling sharply. President Joe Biden has signed the $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill. But while it provides aid to many Americans, there are concerns among some economists it could lead to inflation.</p>\n<p>Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has saidthat the central bank is committed to an \"all-in\" approach as it tries to nurse the economy back to health.</p>\n<p>So why do the stocks chosen stand out? Before turning to that question, it is important to consider how one goes about choosing a stock in the first place. Superior fundamentals and technical action, and buying at the right time, are all part of a shrewd investing formula.</p>\n<p>Best Stocks To Buy: The Crucial Ingredients</p>\n<p>Remember, there are thousands of stocks trading on the NYSE and Nasdaq. But you want to find the very best stocks right now to generate massive gains.</p>\n<p>TheCAN SLIM systemoffers clear guidelines on what you should be looking for. Invest in stocks with recent quarterly and annual earnings growth of at least 25%. Look for companies that have new, game-changing products and services. Also consider not-yet-profitable companies, often recent IPOs, that are generating tremendous revenue growth.</p>\n<p>IBD'sCAN SLIM Investing Systemhas a proven track record of significantly outperforming the S&amp;P 500. Outdoing this industry benchmark is key to generating exceptional returns over the long term.</p>\n<p>In addition, keep an eye on supply and demand for the stock itself, focus on leading stocks in top industry groups, and aim for stocks with strong institutional support.</p>\n<p>Once you have found a stock that fits the criteria, it is then time to turn to stock charts to plot agood entry point. You should wait for a stock toform a base, and then buy once it reaches abuy point, ideally in heavy volume. In many cases, a stock reaches aproper buy pointwhen it breaks above the original high on the left side of the base. More information on what a base is, and how charts can be used to&nbsp;win big on the stock market, can be found here.</p>\n<p>Don't Forget The M When Buying Stocks</p>\n<p>Never forget that theM in CAN SLIM stands for market. Most stocks, even the very best, will tend to follow the market direction. Invest when the stock market is in aconfirmed uptrendand move to cash when the stock market goes into a correction.</p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq and the S&amp;P 500 rallied strongly after recent pressure. The S&amp;P 500 and the Dow Jones have recaptured their50-day moving averages, but are meeting resistance. The Nasdaq also briefly traded above this key benchmark, but slipped back below it. Technology and growth stocks are still showing signs of weakness.</p>\n<p>It is now is a good time to get back into the market and buy fundamentally strong stocks coming out of proper chart bases. But this is no longer the powerful, growth stock rally of 2020.</p>\n<p>The stocks featured below are potential candidates.</p>\n<p>As you identify stocks, on a technical basis look for stocks with rising relative strength lines.

An important consideration is that these stocks all boast impressive relative strength.</p>\n<p>Google Stock</p>\n<p>Google parent Alphabet is near abuy pointof 2,145.24, as athree-weeks-tighthas evolved into a flat base, according toMarketSmith chart analysis. The entry is just above the mid-February all-time high.</p>\n<p>Google stock has been trading around its 21-day exponential moving average and is just above its 10-week line.</p>\n<p>Therelative strength lineforGOOGL stockis near a record high. This gauges a stock's performance compared to the S&amp;P 500. If Alphabet's RS line spikes again, it will be a sign the stock is ready to push higher still.</p>\n<p>GOOGL stock has a very strong&nbsp; IBD Composite Rating of 94. That puts it in the top 6% of stocks tracked overall. Earnings are stronger than stock market performance, however. Nevertheless, the stock is up more than 16% so far this year.</p>\n<p>Google stock&nbsp;should benefit from a rebound in digital advertising as coronavirus vaccinations expand. Stock buybacks are another bright spot. Cloud computing holds promise, but remains an unprofitable business for Alphabet for now.</p>\n<p>The tech giant has a Relative Strength Rating of 66. That means it has outperformed 66% of stocks tracked in terms of price performance over the past 12 months.</p>\n<p>In recent years, Google stock has only slightly outpaced the S&amp;P 500, but that outperformance has picked up in recent months, as its RS line shows. Google has done exceptionally well vs. many tech stocks over the past few weeks.</p>\n<p>Earnings are a key strength, which is highlighted by its EPS Rating of 93 out of a best-possible 99. Howeverearnings have grown by an average of 10%over the past three years, below the 25% sought by CAN SLIM investors.</p>\n<p>Last month the firm reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that crushed estimates as its core search advertising business rebounded. EPS grew 29% and revenue 23%, both accelerating for a second straight quarter.</p>\n<p>Cloud computing revenue topped views, though high investment prevented it from being a profitable enterprise.</p>\n<p>\"Cloud businesses scale, so revenue/booking trends will matter,\" Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Nowak said in a report to clients.</p>\n<p>And while operating margins for the Google cloud computing business came in much lower than analyst estimates, Bank of America analyst Justin Post was upbeat.</p>\n<p>\"We think new cloud disclosure suggests optimism on margin trajectory, and we see a potential $10 billion profit improvement over the next five years using Amazon margins as a target,\" Post said in a research note.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect Google earnings to swell 32% in 2021 and 17% in 2022.</p>\n<p>CarMax Stock</p>\n<p>CarMax stock is in buy zone after breaking out of aflat base. The ideal&nbsp;entry point is 128.68, according to&nbsp;MarketSmith analysis.</p>\n<p>The used car dealer chain is currently well clear of its50-day moving average, which is a bullish sign.</p>\n<p>In addition, therelative strength linefor CarMax stock is looking mighty. It is sitting near all-time highs on its weekly chart, and has been trending upwards since early January. The stock is up more around 40% so far this year.</p>\n<p>KMX stock has a strong, but not ideal,&nbsp;IBD Composite Rating of 87. Earnings are the standout strength for KMX stock, with itsEPS Rating coming in at 90 out of 99.</p>\n<p>It has been affected by the initial coronavirus lockdowns, butEPS roared back to 37% growth&nbsp;in the most recent quarter. Earnings have accelerated for the past two quarters.</p>\n<p>Analysts see earnings falling 16% in 2021, before roaring back with growth of 27% in 2022.</p>\n<p>Big money is piling in, with its&nbsp;Accumulation/Distribution Rating coming in at B. This represents moderate buying over the past 13 weeks. In total, 57% of its stock is held by funds.</p>\n<p>CarMax operates used car stores in more than 70 metropolitan markets. It is a recentIBD Stock Of The Day.</p>\n<p>CarMax's network of 220 stores nationwide sold more than 830,000 used cars in its last financial year. Overall used vehicle sales are expected to rise 2.9% in 2021 to 39.3 million, according to Cox Automotive.</p>\n<p>For Q3, it reported more than 50% of customers chose to advance their transaction online. It has expanded in home delivery and contactless curbside pickup, tapping new avenues of growth.</p>\n<p>\"We are on track for most of our customers to have the ability to buy vehicle online independently if they choose by the middle of next fiscal year,\" CEO Bill Nash said on an earnings call last December.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, more consumers moved to the used car market during the pandemic. At the same time, used car prices rose on a combination of factors.</p>\n<p>The pandemic strained Americans' wallets, forcing consumers to hold on to old cars longer and making fewer used cars available for sale. People also sought to avoid mass transportation. Rising new car prices, partly due to limited supply, also turned more shoppers to the used market.</p>\n<p>RBC Stock</p>\n<p>RBC stock has slipped below its buy zone after breaking out of acup base. The ideal buy point here is 147.07. Investors will want to see the stock show some strength here, rather than dipping lower.</p>\n<p>The relative strength line has more than recovered after a brief pullback, and is juts off highs. It has been on the charge since mid-February.</p>\n<p>The recent excellent performance of RBC stock has seen it make its way onto the highly prestigiousLeaderboard listof top growth stocks.</p>\n<p>It has a strong, but not ideal, Composite Rating of 84 out of 99. It boasts a solid mix of stock market and earnings performance. So far in 2021 the stock has posted a gain of around 16%.</p>\n<p>It has been getting upward earnings revisions of late, with EPS seen rising 24% in 2021, before gaining 12% in 2022.</p>\n<p>Institutions are keen on the stock, with itsAccumulation/Distribution Rating coming in at B+. This represents moderate-to-heavy buying among institutional investors. In total, 64% of its stock is held by funds.</p>\n<p>Wisconsin-based Regal Beloit makes \"motors, bearings, gearing, conveying, blowers, electric components, and couplings,\" according to the company. Its products can be found in farm equipment, pool and spa equipment and commercial HVAC systems. It owns nearly 30 brands including Marathon Motors and Marathon Generators, Browning and Milwaukee Gear.</p>\n<p>Regal earnings jumped 42% to $1.78 a share in the fourth quarter, better than expected and up from a 28% gain in Q3 and 36% decline in Q2. Sales climbed 6% to $780.5 million in Q4, also beating analyst views and returning to growth after several down quarters.</p>\n<p>Last month, the company agreed to buy<b>Rexnord Corp.</b>'s (RNX) bearings, couplings and gears unit with&nbsp;Regal in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. The deal is expected to close in Q4, pending regulatory approval.</p>\n<p>Regal has also found other ways to expand its business amid Covid-19. Improving air filtration systems have been a major issue during the pandemic. The company has developed a new air treatment system that uses UV light to keep the air free of viruses and bacteria.</p>\n<p>\"We see lots of potential for this product, even beyond Covid-19 as end users become more interested in keeping indoor air free of all kinds of pathogens,\" CEO Louis Pinkham said during last month's Q4 earnings call.</p>\n<p>Westlake Chemical Stock</p>\n<p>Westlake Chemical below its buy zone after clearing a 90.46 buy point. It managed to break out of a first stagecup-with-handle base.It has slipped under its 50-day line, and it is important that it fights back going forward.</p>\n<p>WLK stock previously tested its buy point last week, undercutting it multiple times, at least intraday, before closing Friday at 91.84.</p>\n<p>The relative strength line is sitting around new highs. It has been making progress so far in 2021, gaining around 5%.</p>\n<p>WLK stock was just added toIBD Leaderboard. However investors will be looking to see its earnings improve, as it currently holds a poorEPS Rating of 46.Earnings jumped 47% in the latest quarter, with analysts expected 147% growth in 2021.</p>\n<p>Institutional sentiment is currently balanced on the stock. At the moment, it holds an &nbsp;Accumulation/Distribution Rating of C. This represents a balance of buying and selling among institutions.</p>\n<p>In total, 70% of all stock is held by funds. The Fidelity Contrafund (FCNTX), which is rated by IBD research as one of the top performing funds, is a noteworthy holder.</p>\n<p>Headquartered in Houston, Westlake is a global manufacturer and supplier of materials and products used in packaging, health care products, car parts and consumer goods, as well as building and construction products.</p>\n<p>The American Chemistry Council said U.S. chemical production grew for the seventh straight month in January. Chemical makers like Westlake supply materials to several key industries.</p>\n<p>\"With our operations restored in the middle of the fourth quarter, we were able to capitalize on the robust global demand and benefit from higher prices and margins for most of our products.\" CEO Albert Chao in a statement.</p>\n<p>He believes strength in global demand in polyethylene and PVC, coupled with the rise in housing starts and new building permits, will continue into 2021.</p>\n<p><b>Applied Materials Stock</b></p>\n<p>Chip equipment stock Applied Materials is in a short consolidation with a 124.60 buy point.

So what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? Google parentAlphabet(GOOGL),CarMax(KMX),Regal Beloit(RBC),Westlake Chemical(WLK) andApplied Materials(AMAT) are prime candidates.\nSince the coronavirus bear market, stocks rebounded powerfully. The strong action reflects rising confidence that the economy will eventually recover from the coronavirus. The stock market has managed to get back on track after a brief correction, when when the major indexes all dipped below their50-day moving averages.\nNow is a good time to get back into the market, but caution should be exercised. While the market uptrend has resumed, the stock market hasjust had a modestly down week. The Nasdaq essentially remains in a corrections, below its 50-day line with highly valued growth names still significantly damaged. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 are holding above this key technical benchmark, but were pushed lower.\nThe coronavirus pandemic remains a concern, though new coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and even deaths are falling sharply. President Joe Biden has signed the $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill. But while it provides aid to many Americans, there are concerns among some economists it could lead to inflation.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell has saidthat the central bank is committed to an \"all-in\" approach as it tries to nurse the economy back to health.\nSo why do the stocks chosen stand out? Before turning to that question, it is important to consider how one goes about choosing a stock in the first place. Superior fundamentals and technical action, and buying at the right time, are all part of a shrewd investing formula.\nBest Stocks To Buy: The Crucial Ingredients\nRemember, there are thousands of stocks trading on the NYSE and Nasdaq. But you want to find the very best stocks right now to generate massive gains.\nTheCAN SLIM systemoffers clear guidelines on what you should be looking for. Invest in stocks with recent quarterly and annual earnings growth of at least 25%. Look for companies that have new, game-changing products and services. Also consider not-yet-profitable companies, often recent IPOs, that are generating tremendous revenue growth.\nIBD'sCAN SLIM Investing Systemhas a proven track record of significantly outperforming the S&P 500. Outdoing this industry benchmark is key to generating exceptional returns over the long term.\nIn addition, keep an eye on supply and demand for the stock itself, focus on leading stocks in top industry groups, and aim for stocks with strong institutional support.\nOnce you have found a stock that fits the criteria, it is then time to turn to stock charts to plot agood entry point. You should wait for a stock toform a base, and then buy once it reaches abuy point, ideally in heavy volume. In many cases, a stock reaches aproper buy pointwhen it breaks above the original high on the left side of the base. More information on what a base is, and how charts can be used to win big on the stock market, can be found here.\nDon't Forget The M When Buying Stocks\nNever forget that theM in CAN SLIM stands for market. Most stocks, even the very best, will tend to follow the market direction. Invest when the stock market is in aconfirmed uptrendand move to cash when the stock market goes into a correction.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq and the S&P 500 rallied strongly after recent pressure. The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones have recaptured their50-day moving averages, but are meeting resistance. The Nasdaq also briefly traded above this key benchmark, but slipped back below it. Technology and growth stocks are still showing signs of weakness.\nIt is now is a good time to get back into the market and buy fundamentally strong stocks coming out of proper chart bases. But this is no longer the powerful, growth stock rally of 2020.\nThe stocks featured below are potential candidates.\nAs you identify stocks, on a technical basis look for stocks with rising relative strength lines. Stocks that hold up amid tough conditions often bound to new highs once a market stabilizes.\nRemember, things can quickly change when it comes to the stock market. Make sure you don't miss out on a rally by keeping a close eye on themarket trend page here.\nBest Stocks To Buy Or Watch\nNow let's look at Google stock, CarMax stock, RBC stock, Westlake Chemical stock and AMAT stock in more detail. An important consideration is that these stocks all boast impressive relative strength.\nGoogle Stock\nGoogle parent Alphabet is near abuy pointof 2,145.24, as athree-weeks-tighthas evolved into a flat base, according toMarketSmith chart analysis.

This gauges a stock's performance compared to the S&P 500. If Alphabet's RS line spikes again, it will be a sign the stock is ready to push higher still.\nGOOGL stock has a very strong  IBD Composite Rating of 94. That puts it in the top 6% of stocks tracked overall. Earnings are stronger than stock market performance, however. Nevertheless, the stock is up more than 16% so far this year.\nGoogle stock should benefit from a rebound in digital advertising as coronavirus vaccinations expand. Stock buybacks are another bright spot. Cloud computing holds promise, but remains an unprofitable business for Alphabet for now.\nThe tech giant has a Relative Strength Rating of 66. That means it has outperformed 66% of stocks tracked in terms of price performance over the past 12 months.\nIn recent years, Google stock has only slightly outpaced the S&P 500, but that outperformance has picked up in recent months, as its RS line shows. Google has done exceptionally well vs. many tech stocks over the past few weeks.\nEarnings are a key strength, which is highlighted by its EPS Rating of 93 out of a best-possible 99. Howeverearnings have grown by an average of 10%over the past three years, below the 25% sought by CAN SLIM investors.\nLast month the firm reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that crushed estimates as its core search advertising business rebounded. EPS grew 29% and revenue 23%, both accelerating for a second straight quarter.\nCloud computing revenue topped views, though high investment prevented it from being a profitable enterprise.\n\"Cloud businesses scale, so revenue/booking trends will matter,\" Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Nowak said in a report to clients.\nAnd while operating margins for the Google cloud computing business came in much lower than analyst estimates, Bank of America analyst Justin Post was upbeat.\n\"We think new cloud disclosure suggests optimism on margin trajectory, and we see a potential $10 billion profit improvement over the next five years using Amazon margins as a target,\" Post said in a research note.\nAnalysts expect Google earnings to swell 32% in 2021 and 17% in 2022.\nCarMax Stock\nCarMax stock is in buy zone after breaking out of aflat base. The ideal entry point is 128.68, according to MarketSmith analysis.\nThe used car dealer chain is currently well clear of its50-day moving average, which is a bullish sign.\nIn addition, therelative strength linefor CarMax stock is looking mighty. It is sitting near all-time highs on its weekly chart, and has been trending upwards since early January. The stock is up more around 40% so far this year.\nKMX stock has a strong, but not ideal, IBD Composite Rating of 87. Earnings are the standout strength for KMX stock, with itsEPS Rating coming in at 90 out of 99.\nIt has been affected by the initial coronavirus lockdowns, butEPS roared back to 37% growth in the most recent quarter. Earnings have accelerated for the past two quarters.\nAnalysts see earnings falling 16% in 2021, before roaring back with growth of 27% in 2022.\nBig money is piling in, with its Accumulation/Distribution Rating coming in at B.

It is a recentIBD Stock Of The Day.\nCarMax's network of 220 stores nationwide sold more than 830,000 used cars in its last financial year. Overall used vehicle sales are expected to rise 2.9% in 2021 to 39.3 million, according to Cox Automotive.\nFor Q3, it reported more than 50% of customers chose to advance their transaction online. It has expanded in home delivery and contactless curbside pickup, tapping new avenues of growth.\n\"We are on track for most of our customers to have the ability to buy vehicle online independently if they choose by the middle of next fiscal year,\" CEO Bill Nash said on an earnings call last December.\nMeanwhile, more consumers moved to the used car market during the pandemic. At the same time, used car prices rose on a combination of factors.\nThe pandemic strained Americans' wallets, forcing consumers to hold on to old cars longer and making fewer used cars available for sale. People also sought to avoid mass transportation. Rising new car prices, partly due to limited supply, also turned more shoppers to the used market.\nRBC Stock\nRBC stock has slipped below its buy zone after breaking out of acup base. The ideal buy point here is 147.07. Investors will want to see the stock show some strength here, rather than dipping lower.\nThe relative strength line has more than recovered after a brief pullback, and is juts off highs. It has been on the charge since mid-February.\nThe recent excellent performance of RBC stock has seen it make its way onto the highly prestigiousLeaderboard listof top growth stocks.\nIt has a strong, but not ideal, Composite Rating of 84 out of 99.

Its products can be found in farm equipment, pool and spa equipment and commercial HVAC systems. It owns nearly 30 brands including Marathon Motors and Marathon Generators, Browning and Milwaukee Gear.\nRegal earnings jumped 42% to $1.78 a share in the fourth quarter, better than expected and up from a 28% gain in Q3 and 36% decline in Q2. Sales climbed 6% to $780.5 million in Q4, also beating analyst views and returning to growth after several down quarters.\nLast month, the company agreed to buyRexnord Corp.'s (RNX) bearings, couplings and gears unit with Regal in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. The deal is expected to close in Q4, pending regulatory approval.\nRegal has also found other ways to expand its business amid Covid-19. Improving air filtration systems have been a major issue during the pandemic. The company has developed a new air treatment system that uses UV light to keep the air free of viruses and bacteria.\n\"We see lots of potential for this product, even beyond Covid-19 as end users become more interested in keeping indoor air free of all kinds of pathogens,\" CEO Louis Pinkham said during last month's Q4 earnings call.\nWestlake Chemical Stock\nWestlake Chemical below its buy zone after clearing a 90.46 buy point. It managed to break out of a first stagecup-with-handle base.It has slipped under its 50-day line, and it is important that it fights back going forward.\nWLK stock previously tested its buy point last week, undercutting it multiple times, at least intraday, before closing Friday at 91.84.\nThe relative strength line is sitting around new highs.

AMAT stock needs another week for its current consolidation to qualify as a proper flat base\nIt recently bounced of its 10-week line, which is a bullish indicator.

But Paulsen believes it’s more likely the group will endure through higher rates.\n“It might have less to do with yields than it does with just facing a glass ceiling,” he added. “I’mnot totally convinced that we’re breaking down. We might just be hitting the ceiling, bouncing down for a minute and maybe going to take it out yet at some point here in the future.”\nPaulsen contends Big Tech and growth, which he classifies as “New-Era” stocks, will retain their attractiveness to investors.\n“If it does ultimately achieve a new relative-price high, might its leadership persevere and perhaps even strengthen? That is what happened the last two times the Nasdaq spent multiple years as an underperformer,” he wrote.\nDespite his optimism, Paulsen acknowledges it’s reasonable to expect a phase of underperformance, consolidation or even a temporary meltdown.\n“It’s important to realize that we’re just one year into this new economic expansion — probably both the expansion and the bull market are going to be a multi-year event in which tech will continue to play a fairly dominant role,” he said. “During the periods of time where cyclicality takes a hit and it’s going to in periods, I think tech is going to hold up your portfolio.”\nSo, Paulsen, who oversees about $1 billion in assets under management, isn’t bailing on Big Tech.\n“We’re underweighted tech, but not by a lot,” said Paulsen, who is overweight areas such as small caps, value and international stocks. “It’s likely to underperform over the next year as the economy really booms here, but I’m not totally sold that it will.”\nOn “Trading Nation” last September,Paulsen,a long-time market bull, recommended taking advantage of Wall Street pessimism while you still can. Since that appearance, the Nasdaq is up 20%, and he’s maintaining his enthusiasm.\n“It’s still going to be the leader of the future,” Paulsen said.\nThe Nasdaq dropped 0.6% to 13,319.87 on Friday as the benchmark 10-year Treasury Note yield hit 1.64%, its highest level in 13 months. But the tech heavy index, which is 6% off its all-time high, still ended the week up more than 3%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":33,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":346623116,"gmtCreate":1618033095035,"gmtModify":1634295119954,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/346623116","repostId":"1142324412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142324412","pubTimestamp":1617982207,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1142324412?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-09 23:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"XPeng Inc.: A Reawakening","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142324412","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.Feared chip shortage  was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese go","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.</li>\n <li>Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.</li>\n <li>Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.</li>\n <li>Feared chip shortage (i.e. supply disruption) was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e0f3343d69719839f9b8f1d337c3984\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\"><span>Photo by Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Introduction</b></p>\n<p>The stock price of&nbsp;XPEV&nbsp;has been converging with the performance of the S&amp;P 500 since March 2021, as compared to its massive outperformance in 4Q2020. This could be view positively or negatively. On the bright side, this suggests that price performance would become more predictable with lower volatility, indicative of a broadening consensus on the fundamental prospects of the company. On the other hand, traders may be disappointed its lack of momentum. Therefore, this is probably a good time to stop viewing XPEV as purely a trade, but re-analyze its merits as a fundamentally-driven investment.</p>\n<p><i>The frenetic performance of XPEV has calmed down in recent weeks, allowing its one year performance to track the S&amp;P 500 more closely</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f04001d604ecc7892ef3a76c498578b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"236\"><span>Source: SeekingAlpha</span></p>\n<p><i>XPEV's G3 Super Long Range Smart SUV</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68446a741f9f97afc10f2149c4e13e13\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"388\"><span>Source: XPeng Motors (G3、P7) Intelligent electric car with Internet DNA</span></p>\n<p><b>Industry and commercial positives</b></p>\n<p>Optimism on EVs and&nbsp;strong industry growth&nbsp;rates are common knowledge by now. The following points suggest specific positives for XPEV that remain intact despite relatively ebbing momentum on the stock's price (as compared to 4Q2020):</p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Deliveries met despite fears on chip shortage.</b>While the stock's price momentum appears to have ebbed, recent news continues to remain positive. At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked&nbsp;in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered&nbsp;20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.</li>\n <li><b>Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.</b>XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.</li>\n <li><b>Listing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.</b>Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and&nbsp;LI&nbsp;intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Of note, in late March, XPEV held an&nbsp;autonomous driving expedition&nbsp;covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the&nbsp;competitive landscape&nbsp;against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results&nbsp;performed better&nbsp;than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.</p>\n<p><b>XPEV's improving financials</b></p>\n<p>Now that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.</p>\n<p>Another point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong.

This could be view positively or negatively. On the bright side, this suggests that price performance would become more predictable with lower volatility, indicative of a broadening consensus on the fundamental prospects of the company. On the other hand, traders may be disappointed its lack of momentum. Therefore, this is probably a good time to stop viewing XPEV as purely a trade, but re-analyze its merits as a fundamentally-driven investment.\nThe frenetic performance of XPEV has calmed down in recent weeks, allowing its one year performance to track the S&P 500 more closely\nSource: SeekingAlpha\nXPEV's G3 Super Long Range Smart SUV\nSource: XPeng Motors (G3、P7) Intelligent electric car with Internet DNA\nIndustry and commercial positives\nOptimism on EVs and strong industry growth rates are common knowledge by now. The following points suggest specific positives for XPEV that remain intact despite relatively ebbing momentum on the stock's price (as compared to 4Q2020):\n\nDeliveries met despite fears on chip shortage.While the stock's price momentum appears to have ebbed, recent news continues to remain positive. At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered 20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.\nGovernment support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.\nListing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and LI intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.\n\nOf note, in late March, XPEV held an autonomous driving expedition covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the competitive landscape against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results performed better than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.\nXPEV's improving financials\nNow that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.\nAnother point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.\nMeanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities & equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.\nXPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation\n*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha\nXPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle\nXPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers. On a TTM P/S, XPEV is near the middle although its FWD P/S is trading at a premium. However, there could be a general re-rating of the P/S of the sector if the Chinese EV manufacturers reach breakeven in 2021 and record positive profits (our base case belief, given the prevailing trend in XPEV's improving operating margins). This will then allow better price discovery when the companies can then be valued on their P/E ratios.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConclusion and Risks\nXPEV's stock price may benefit from two key catalysts: (1) expansion of manufacturing facility in Wuhan, which will concretely raise visibility of revenue growth which is expected to double; (2) a valuation regime change as it progresses from a loss making company to a profitable one, expected by this year. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the valuation is not lofty as compared to price levels in 4Q2020, having fallen over the last couple of months.\nCompetition may exist and remain intense, but given the large size of China's market and that there are only a couple of notable players (i.e. NIO, LI), the market remains largely an oligopoly which allows XPEV to retain pricing power.\nMuch feared risks of execution in the past appear to have materialized but not in a big way, i.e. the previously expected chip shortage. Given the progression to a post-COVID economy, supply chain links should improve and reduce similar risks in the future.\nOn a standalone basis, XPEV's prospects appear bright, and now the key hurdle is whether the NASDAQ will find momentum and exceed previous highs. The base case for this should lean towards the positive as the market is merely in the first year of the economic recovery after the pandemic. Recent price consolidation appears to have created a technical setup for a reawakening of price momentum as consumer activity revives post-pandemic.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":630,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":348738035,"gmtCreate":1617961689227,"gmtModify":1634295509392,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","listText":"[财迷]&nbsp;","text":"[财迷]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/348738035","repostId":"1168300924","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1168300924","pubTimestamp":1617955250,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1168300924?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-09 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Next Week’s IPO Lineup Is Growing.

The China-based online content company offered 55 million ADS in the IPO to raise $522.5 million, while the pricing valued the company at about $5.31 billion.Zhihu has a similar business model as Quora where millions of people ask questions and exchange their views and experiences. Zhihu has become the largest online question and answer community in China.Sales BreakdownAdvertising and paid memberships account for the biggest portion of the company's revenues. Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. We estimate advertising as a percentage of revenues to gradually decline in the next five years as it is offset by the faster growing Paid Memberships and Content Commerce Solutions. We estimate advertising as a percentage of sales to decline to 34.1% in 2021 and 22.3% in 2025.Paid Memberships represented 13.1% of total revenues in 2019, which increased to 23.7% of total revenues in 2020. We have assumed Paid Membership revenues as a percentage of total revenues to increase to 31.5% in 2021 and 37.8% in 2025.Content Commerce Solutions and Other sales also increased sharply in 2020. Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020. In early 2020, the company launched Content-Commerce solutions, which provide merchants and brands a one-stop shop for all of their sales and marketing needs, including marketing plans. We have assumed Content Commerce Solutions as a percentage of total revenue to jump from 10% in 2020 to 17.8% in 2021 and 32.3% in 2025.Gross MarginsThe company's gross margins improved from 46.6% in 2019 to 56.0% in 2020, driven by an overall improving business scalability. We have assumed further improvements in gross margins to 57.4% in 2021 and 62.3% in 2025.Total Operating Expenses and Operating MarginsTotal operating expenses as a percentage of revenues declined significantly from 204.4% in 2019 to 100.6% in 2020. We expect this ratio to improve further to 79% in 2021, 69.2% in 2022, and 57.2% in 2025. The bulk of the improvements in operating expenses is coming from lower SG&A and R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues in the next five years.Company BackgroundAt the end of 2020, Zhihu had more than 43.1 million cumulative content creators that contributed 315 million questions and answers. In 4Q 2020, the company had 75.7 million average monthly active users, up 33% YoY. One of the key strengths of the company is that it is recognized as one of the most trustworthy online content communities and regarded as providing one of the highest quality content in China. Zhihu has tried to capitalize on its large user base to provide numerous multimedia functions including live streaming, e-commerce, online education, and other video content.In August 2019, Zhihu received $434 million in funding from leading investors including Baidu and Kuaishou Technology, valuing the company at $3.5 billion. Given that the company had $97 million in sales in 2019, this would suggest a P/S valuation multiple of 36x. If we take the same P/S multiple apply to the company's 2020 sales of $207 million, this would suggest an implied valuation of $7.5 billion.Zhihu was originally developed as a question and answer online community in 2010. At the end of 2020, there were a total of 315 million Q&As spanning more than 1,000 verticals and 571,000 topics. Zhihu is one of the top five comprehensive online content communities in China, in terms of average mobile MAUs and revenue in 2020. The company uses artificial intelligence, cloud, and big data algorithms to improve the optimization of its content and services.Major Shareholders of ZhihuThe founder & CEO Zhou Yuanowns an 8.2% stake in the company (but 46.6% voting rights). Sinovation Ventures owns a 13.1% stake and Tencent Holdings Ltd. owns a 12.3% stake of Zhihu.Key DemographicsThe diagram below provides some of the key demographics of Zhihu user base. Males accounted for 56.9% of total users. People under 30 years old accounted for 78.7% of its total user base. Tier I and new tier I cities represented 52.6% of total user base. Many of the users of Zhihu are students and white collar professionals.Revenue BreakdownAdvertising and paid memberships account for the biggest portion of the company's revenues. Advertising accounted for 86.1% and 62.4% of total revenues in 2019 and 2020, respectively. The company's advertising revenue is mainly driven by its MAUs and advertising revenue per MAU. The company's MAUs increased by 42.7% YoY to 68.5 million in 2020.

Average monthly members jumped by 311.5% YoY to 2.36 million in 2020, which is a testament of an increasing number of customers that value the premium content available on Zhihu.In March 2019, the company introduced the Yan Selection membership program, making it the first payment-based questions & answers community. It provides its members with unlimited access to about 3.4 million paid content including online lectures, columns, audio books, and e-journals. This is one of the biggest strengths of the company as it shows how high quality data and content can generate serious amount of revenues and it also provides a more steady monthly revenue inflow.Content Commerce Solutions and Other sales also increased sharply in 2020. Content Commerce Solutions revenues jumped from 0.6 million RMB in 2019 to 135.8 million RMB in 2020.

Tesla slipped nearly 7%. The S&P 500 slid 1.5% to 3,915.46, falling from a record closing high reached in the previous session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 153.07 points, or 0.5%, to 32,862.30 after hitting a new intraday record earlier in the day amid a rally in bank stocks.\nThe 10-year Treasury yield jumped 11 basis points above 1.75% at its session high, reaching its highest level since January 2020. The 30-year rate also climbed 6 basis points at one point, breaching the 2.5% level for the first time since August 2019. The jump in bond yields came after the Federal Reserve expressed its willingness to allow an overshoot in inflation. Rising rates can have an outsized impact on growth stocks as they make their future returns less valuable today.\n“Risk of rates rising too fast remains a key concern,” said Craig Johnson, technical market strategist at Piper Sandler. “Buying pressure has not been equal over the last several weeks as growth stocks lag behind due to headwinds from higher interest rates.”\nBank stocks outperformed as higher interest rates tend to improve their profit margins. Banks can earn more from the widening gap between the rate they borrow at in the short term and the rate they lend out at in the long term. U.S. Bancorp and Wells Fargo popped 3.3% and 2.4%, respectively. JPMorgan jumped 1.7%, while Bank of America gained 2.6%.\nInvestors also digested a mixed bag of economic data Thursday.Weekly initial jobless claims totaled 770,000 for the week ended March 13, worse than an estimate of 700,000, according to economists polled by Dow Jones.\nMeanwhile, the Philadelphia Federal Reserve’s manufacturing index showed a reading of 51.8, well exceeding Dow Jones consensus of 22.0 and hitting the highest level for the gauge since 1973.\nThe energy sector was the biggest loser with a 4.7% decline Thursday amid a drop in oil prices. WTI crude futures slid more than 7% to $60 per barrel, falling for a fifth straight day and suffering its worst day since September.\nThe blue-chip Dow closed above 33,000 for the first time on Wednesday after the Fed said it does not expect to hike interest rates through 2023.\nFed Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that the central bank wants to see inflation consistently above its 2% target and material improvement in the U.S. labor market before considering changes to rates or its monthly bond purchases.\n“By saying that they’re willing to let inflation run hot at a time inflation concerns are rising is another way for the Fed to say that they are willing to let long-term interest rates rise further,” said Matt Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak.\nThe Fed upgraded its economic outlook, expecting to see gross domestic product grow 6.5% in 2021 and inflation rise 2.2% this year as measured by personal consumption expenditures. The central bank’s stated goal is to keep inflation at 2% over the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":90,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":352337858,"gmtCreate":1616892383374,"gmtModify":1634523656498,"author":{"id":"3574889845267160","authorId":"3574889845267160","name":"Lunchenmeat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acd5a0ac49c26186e6eb58c8fb6d7c34","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[得意]&nbsp;","listText":"[得意]&nbsp;","text":"[得意]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/352337858","repostId":"1141686975","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141686975","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":1616780260,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1141686975?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-27 01:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Zhihu Technology fall on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141686975","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02 each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO pri","content":"<p>Zhihu Technology shares opened at $8.02&nbsp;each on Friday, about 15.6% lower than the company’s IPO price&nbsp;$9.5.Zhihu IPO prices at low end of the range, valuing company at about $5.3 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4672a089b4ebb0a889cbfbeb32b48594\" tg-width=\"1920\" tg-height=\"959\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Zhihu Inc.&nbsp;announced Friday the pricing of its initial public offering, at $9.50 per American depositary share, which was at the low end of the expected range.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 199.42 points, or 0.6%, to 32,619.48 after losing as much as 348 points. The Nasdaq Composite also eked out a 0.1% gain to close at 12,977.68 as some major technology stocks reserved losses. Tesla rose 1.6%, while Apple closed in the green.\nStocks that are tied to a successful economic reopening such as airlines and cruise line operators led the intraday rebound. American Airlines and United gained more than 4% each, while Norwegian Cruise Line and Carnival both rose over 2%. Boeing climbed 3.3%.\nThe market experienced some weakness earlier in the day as Federal Reserve ChairmanJerome Powell hinted at one day starting to remove the stimulusthat has boosted the market during the pandemic.\n\"As we make substantial further progress toward our goals, we'll gradually roll back the amount of Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities we've bought,\" Powell told NPR's \"Morning Edition.\" \"We will very gradually over time and with great transparency, when the economy has all but fully recovered, we will be pulling back the support that we provided during emergency times.\"\nThursday's moves pared the major averages' week-to-date losses. The S&P 500 and the Dow are now down less than 0.1% each after hitting their record highs last week. The Nasdaq underperformed with a 1.8% loss this week.\nSome investors have been taking profits in their growth winners which led the market's rebound from the pandemic losses last year. Netflix has fallen 6.7% this month, while Tesla is down more than 5%. Pandemic winner Zoom Video has dropped nearly 16% in March.\n\"The weakness in technology stocks is undeniable, but it likely won't be a straight line down for the sector and there will be zigs and zags along the way,\" said David Bahnsen, chief investment officer at The Bahnsen Group. \"Tech stock valuations are too high and are screaming for a correction.\"\nInvestors pored over a better-than-expected reading on weekly jobless claims. The Labor Department said first-time claims for unemployment insurancetotaled 684,000 for the week ended March 20, lower than an estimate of 735,000 from economists surveyed by Dow Jones.\n\"The signs of strength from today's jobless claims read may actually have a perverse effect on the broader market,\" said Mike Loewengart, managing director of investment strategy at E-Trade.\"Meaning that if we continue to see the labor market make strides, this could translate into pressure on equities and on the Fed to reassess its accommodative stance.\"\nOil prices fell more than 4% Thursday as demand concerns rekindled with fresh coronavirus pandemic lockdowns.\nThe 10-year Treasury yield gained just 1 basis point to 1.64%. The benchmark rate hit a 14-month high last week above 1.7%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":177,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
