(NYTIMES) - The director of the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warned on Thursday (July 22) that the United States was \"not out of the woods yet\" on the pandemic and was once again at a \"pivotal point\" as the highly infectious Delta variant ripped through unvaccinated communities.\nJust weeks after President Joe Biden threw a Fourth of July party on the South Lawn of the White House to declare independence from the virus, the director, Dr Rochelle Walensky, called the now dominant variant \"one of the most infectious respiratory viruses\" known to scientists.\nThe renewed sense of urgency inside the administration was aimed at tens of millions of people who have not yet been vaccinated and therefore are most likely to be infected and become sick.\nHer grim message came at a time of growing anxiety and confusion, especially among parents of young children who are still not eligible to take the shot. And it underscored how quickly the pandemic's latest surge had unsettled Americans who had begun to believe the worst was over, sending politicians and public health officials scrambling to recalibrate their responses.\n\"This is like the moment in the horror movie when you think the horror is over and the credits are about to roll,\" said Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md. \"And it all starts back up again.\"\nThe choice by millions to reject the vaccine has had the consequences that public health officials predicted: The number of new cases in the country has shot up almost 250 per cent since the beginning of the month, with an average of more than 41,000 infections being diagnosed each day during the past week - up from 12,000.\nThe disease caused by the virus is claiming about 250 lives each day - far fewer than during the peaks last year, but still 42 per cent higher than two weeks ago. More than 97 per cent of those hospitalised are unvaccinated, Dr Walensky said last week.\nThe public health crisis is particularly acute in parts of the country where vaccination rates are the lowest. In Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, the number of daily new cases is up more than 200 per cent in the past two weeks, driving new hospitalisations and deaths almost exclusively among the unvaccinated. Intensive care units are filled or filling in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas.\nThe turnabout is forcing both political parties in Washington to grapple - so far in halting and tentative ways - with questions about what tone they should strike, what guidance they should provide and what changes they need to make to confront the latest iteration of the worst public health crisis in a century.\nThe White House announced new grants on Thursday to local health offices for vaccines and increased testing in rural communities, even as administration officials said they were \"making continued progress in our fight against the virus\" and insisted that there was no need to reconsider their basic strategy. Although reports of so-called breakthrough infections in vaccinated people are growing, they remain relatively uncommon, and those that cause severe illness, hospitalisation or death are especially so.\nOn Capitol Hill on Thursday, House Republican leaders and elected doctors only grudgingly signalled their support for vaccinations, though even that support was mixed.\n\"If you are at risk, you should be getting this vaccine,\" said Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland, a physician, adding, \"We urge all Americans to talk to their doctors about the risks of Covid-19, talk to their doctors about the benefits of getting vaccinated and then come to a decision.\"\nRep. Greg Murphy, R-N.C., said, \"This vaccine is a medicine, and just like with any other medicines, there are side effects and this is a personal decision.\"\nTheir news conference was advertised as an attempt to \"discuss the need for individuals to get vaccinated.\" But it was dominated by efforts to promote an unproven theory that the Chinese released a virulent, human-made virus on the world and accusations that Democrats covered it up.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":172417011,"gmtCreate":1626972401233,"gmtModify":1633769169810,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Food prices have increased","listText":"Food prices have increased","text":"Food prices have increased","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/172417011","repostId":"1172546594","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1172546594","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626963813,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1172546594?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-22 22:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Biden Downplays Inflation, Predicts Businesses Will Be In 'Bind' Over Labor Shortages, Then Has Brain Freeze","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1172546594","media":"zerohedge","summary":"President Joe Biden waved off long-term inflation concerns on Wednesday, telling aCNNtown hall in Ci","content":"<p>President Joe Biden waved off long-term inflation concerns on Wednesday, telling a<i>CNN</i>town hall in Cincinnati that it won't persist as the economy emerges from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/667604940c5d09d04d8141c6810c2609\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"304\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>\"<b>There will be near-term inflation</b>\" because the economy is recovering, he said, adding that 'most economists' think \"it’s highly unlikely that it’s going to be long-term inflation that’s going to get out of hand.\"</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1a683ce14e2b21dab4dac41ad2dcd5ac\" tg-width=\"513\" tg-height=\"507\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">He then cautioned restaurant owners and others in the hospitality sector that recovery may not be swift - telling one restaurant owner that he may be \"in a bind for a while\" because workers are seeking better wages and working conditions, according to<i>Bloomberg</i>.</p>\n<p><b>\"It really is a matter of people deciding now that they have opportunities to do other things</b>,\" he said, adding \"People are looking to make more money and to bargain.\"</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>Inflation has become a political liability for the White House in recent weeks.

It’s a good thing and I think we’re going to get it done,\" he said.</p>\n<p>As the<i>Financial Times</i>notes, \"Although US growth and job creation have jumped since Biden took office in January,<b>the economic outlook has been clouded by the resurgence of coronavirus because of the rapid spread of the contagious Delta variant as well as an unnerving rise in inflation</b>.\"</p>\n<p>Biden also pushed vaccinations, which have slowed in the United States as cases nudge higher. He said they would receive final approval from the Food and Drug Administration soon, and would be available for children under the age of 12.</p>\n<p>\"We have a pandemic for those who haven’t gotten the vaccination. It’s that basic, that simple,\" he said. \"<u><i><b>If you’re vaccinated, you’re not going to be hospitalized</b></i></u>.<i><b>You’re not going to be in an ICU unit.

The U.S. experienced the largest surge in consumer prices in more than 12 years last month, with a Labor Department gauge rising 5.4% compared to one year ago.\n\n\n“\nInflation is driving the cost of everything through the roof\n,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said at a news conference Wednesday opposing Democratic calls for Biden’s long-term social spending plan. -Bloomberg\n\nRepublicans, meanwhile, largely blame Biden and Democrats for the labor shortages at restaurants and other low-wage businessesbecause overly-generous pandemic stimulus has removed incentives to get back to work. Biden, in response, suggests these low-margin businesses should simply pay people more - calling rising wages a \"feature' of his economic plans.\n\nJob openings continue to hit record highsdespite elevated unemployment. According to the report, the hotel and restaurant industries had 1.25 million vacant jobs in May, up from 807,000 in February 2020.\n\"A lot of people who work as waiters and waitresses decided that they don’t want to do that anymore because there’s other opportunities and higher wages, because there’s a lot of openings now and jobs and people are beginning to move,\" said Biden.\nInfrastructure, Vaccinations\nBiden also expressed confidence that he can still secure the passage of a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package despite GOP lawmakers blocking its first congressional vote on Wednesday - which Biden called \"irrelevant.\"\n\"It’s necessary, I really mean it. It’s going to not only increase job opportunities but increase commerce. It’s a good thing and I think we’re going to get it done,\" he said.\nAs theFinancial Timesnotes, \"Although US growth and job creation have jumped since Biden took office in January,the economic outlook has been clouded by the resurgence of coronavirus because of the rapid spread of the contagious Delta variant as well as an unnerving rise in inflation.\"\nBiden also pushed vaccinations, which have slowed in the United States as cases nudge higher. He said they would receive final approval from the Food and Drug Administration soon, and would be available for children under the age of 12.\n\"We have a pandemic for those who haven’t gotten the vaccination. It’s that basic, that simple,\" he said. \"If you’re vaccinated, you’re not going to be hospitalized.You’re not going to be in an ICU unit. And you are not going to die.\"\nExcept40% of UK hospital admissionsare those who have been vaccinated, while Israel has had even higher numbers, and the most vaccinated countries are experiencingCOVID case spikesvs. the least-vaccinated. Meanwhile, over 6,000 people haveofficiallydied shortly after receiving the vaccine, according to the CDC.\nBiden had anawkward brain freezeduring the vaccine Q&A.\n\nFilibuster\nBiden slammed Republican legislators over voting integrity legislation, calling them \"Jim Crow on steroids,\" howeverhe maintained his support for the legislative filibuster.\n\"There’s no reason to protect it other than you’re going to throw the entire Congress into chaos and nothing will get done,\" adding \"Nothing at all will get done.\" He followed up by saying that there was 'too much at stake' to risk that level of 'chaos' that a filibuster fight would ignite.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":241,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171203621,"gmtCreate":1626744685063,"gmtModify":1633771488060,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple","listText":"Apple","text":"Apple","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171203621","repostId":"2152637484","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152637484","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1626707940,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2152637484?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-19 23:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 No-Brainer Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152637484","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"They have great businesses and great growth prospects.","content":"<blockquote>\n They have great businesses and great growth prospects.\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>These no-brainer Buffett stocks to buy include the legendary investor's two favorite stocks plus one that he regrets buying sooner.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Warren Buffett doesn't always beat the market.

I fully expect that Amazon will find even more markets to enter over the coming years, rewarding shareholders along the way.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171657380,"gmtCreate":1626743577840,"gmtModify":1633771508279,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pandemics&nbsp;","listText":"Pandemics&nbsp;","text":"Pandemics","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171657380","repostId":"2152652683","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171659244,"gmtCreate":1626743280788,"gmtModify":1633771514843,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The pandemic&nbsp;","listText":"The pandemic&nbsp;","text":"The pandemic","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171659244","repostId":"2152652683","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":283,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171073325,"gmtCreate":1626699785767,"gmtModify":1633924848551,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","listText":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","text":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171073325","repostId":"1171640883","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1171640883","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626675300,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1171640883?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-19 14:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng prices its new sedan at $24,700 undercutting Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1171640883","media":"CNBC","summary":"GUANGZHOU, China — Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng Inc. has priced its new P5 sedan as low as 160,00","content":"<div>\n<p>GUANGZHOU, China — Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng Inc. has priced its new P5 sedan as low as 160,000 yuan ($24,694) days after Tesla launched a cheaper version of its Model Y sports utility vehicle\n...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/19/xpeng-p5-price-starts-at-24700-undercutting-tesla-model-3-in-china.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;

There are six different versions of the car with different features, and prices range from 160,000 yuan to 230,000 yuan.\nXpeng's P7 sedan starts from 229,900 yuan after subsidies. Tesla's Model 3 starts from 250,900 yuan in China.\nThe Guangzhou-headquartered company is using Lidar, or light detection and ranging technology, in the P5 to boost some of its semi-autonomous driving features. Lidar uses laser beams to map out the surrounding environment, and measure the distance of objects to help the car determine obstacles in its pathway.\nFour out of the six P5 models come fitted with Lidar and Xpeng's advanced driver-assistancesystem (ADAS) called XPILOT.\nXpeng is one of a number of players in China's electric vehicle industry which spans from established automakers through to start-ups.\nTesla, which has facedweeks of bad press in China, introduced a cheaper version of its Model Y SUV with a shorter driving range this month, which starts at 276,000 yuan after subsidies.\nXpeng delivered 17,398 vehicles in the second quarter of the year, a 439% increase year-over-year. The company will be hoping the P5 can help it to continue to grow sales in a new price segment.\nThis month, Xpeng, which is already listed in New York, carried out a so-calleddual primary listing in Hong Kongand raised 14.02 billion Hong Kong dollars ($1.8 billion).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":321,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171070271,"gmtCreate":1626699627993,"gmtModify":1633924849576,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171070271","repostId":"2152568245","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152568245","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1626686520,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2152568245?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-19 17:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Heavily Short-Sold Stocks That Won't Squeeze","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152568245","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Hoping for a short squeeze? These stocks aren't your best bet.","content":"<p>Since the beginning of the year, the big story on Wall Street often hasn't been the pandemic. Rather, the buzz has been about the retail movement and the desire to seek out the next short squeeze.</p>\n<p>In simple terms, short-sellers are investors betting on a lower share price. Since a company's share price can't go below $0, gains are capped at 100% for pessimists. Conversely, given that there's no theoretical ceiling as to how high a stock's share price can fly, losses for short-sellers are unlimited. A short squeeze is a very short-term event that involves short-sellers rushing for the exit at once. To exit their position they'll need to buy shares, which only further exacerbates the potential runaway upside in a publicly traded company.</p>\n<p>The thing about investing for a short squeeze is that it's usually a poor strategy with few winners. Stocks with high short interest are often struggling businesses and rightly worth avoiding. Although the following five heavily short-sold stocks are all potentially on the short-squeeze radar for retail investors, I wouldn't expect a squeeze out of any of them.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fshort-squeeze-dollar-rocket-to-the-moon-stock-chart-invest-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"399\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GTY\">Getty</a> Images.</p>\n<h3>Nikola</h3>\n<p>Even though electric vehicle (EV) stocks have been a favorite among millennial investors, <b>Nikola</b> (NASDAQ:NKLA) has attracted quite the following of pessimists. As of the end of June, more than 44.2 million shares were held short out of 191.3 million shares in its float. But this is the perfect example of a stock where pessimism is warranted.</p>\n<p>Despite there being room for plenty of EV manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad, Nikola has frequently broken Wall Street's and investors' trust. The company exaggerated the technological capabilities of its Nikola One electric semi truck, and its founder, Trevor Milton, stepped down from his role as executive chairman in a middle-of-the-night tweet.</p>\n<p>What's more, the Securities and Exchange Commission is also conducting an investigation into Nikola on the heels of a short-seller report from Hindenburg Research last year. Some of the allegations in that report were confirmed by a Nikola internal review.</p>\n<p>Building an EV company from the ground up is a difficult and cash-consuming process to begin with. Adding a public relations nightmare on top of it all makes this stock an easy avoid and likely kills its chances of a short squeeze.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fcrypto-mining-graphics-card-gpu-asic-bitcoin-ethereum-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Riot Blockchain</h3>\n<p>Though young investors love cryptocurrencies and virtually anything related to crypto, short-sellers have piled into cryptocurrency mining stock <b>Riot Blockchain</b> (NASDAQ:RIOT). There were roughly 20 million shares held short at the end of June, which compares to a tradable float of 72 million shares.</p>\n<p>Mining for <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) might sound like a winning strategy, but it comes with three major flaws. To begin with, Bitcoin has undergone three separate corrections of at least 80% over the past decade. Since mining companies are paid via block rewards (6.25 Bitcoins, at the moment), they're entirely reliant on the rising price of Bitcoin to push revenue and profits higher, rather than innovation.</p>\n<p>Secondly, the barrier to entry for cryptocurrency mining is nonexistent. Over time, Riot is going to face increasing competition to validate groups of transactions, known as a block, on Bitcoin's blockchain.</p>\n<p>The third issue is that Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, the block reward will halve again to 3.125 Bitcoin from 6.25 Bitcoin. Essentially, crypto mining stocks like Riot Blockchain are competing for a shrinking pie, and they're entirely dependent on external factors. That doesn't sound like the recipe for a sustainable business model.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fbiotech-lab-three-researchers-testing-fluids-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INO\">Inovio Pharmaceuticals</a></h3>\n<p>While most investors are rooting for clinical-stage biotech stocks to succeed, short-sellers have been piling on <b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:INO). By the end of June, approximately 44.6 million shares were held short, relative to a tradable float of 206 million shares.</p>\n<p>On <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> hand, Inovio has an impressively large pipeline consisting of 11 different clinical-stage compounds. On the other hand, the company has been in business for more than four decades and it's yet to develop a therapy that's been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Inovio always seems to offer promise, but it's consistently failed to deliver.</p>\n<p>Another reason for skepticism is the company's experimental coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, INO-4800. Though it initially looked as if Inovio would be a vaccine frontrunner in the U.S., the FDA placed a partial clinical hold on its phase 2/3 study and requested additional info on the vaccine and the company's delivery device, Cellectra. Months later, the U.S. federal government pulled funding for the company's proposed late-stage study, forcing it to seek an international trial.</p>\n<p>Even though anything could happen during clinical trials, skeptics are historically batting 1.000 with Inovio.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Felectric-vehicle-charging-ev-green-clean-energy-auto-stock-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a></h3>\n<p>A company with exceptionally high short interest that I don't believe has a realistic shot at a short squeeze is electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and network provider <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a></b> (NASDAQ:BLNK). As of June 30, 12.2 million shares were held short, compared to a float of 36.1 million shares.</p>\n<p>As with Nikola, there's plenty of hype surrounding EVs and EV infrastructure, and there'll no doubt be winners. But Blink Charging is unlikely to be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the winners, primarily because it's not investing any of its capital into research and development, at least based on what I (and you) can see from reading its quarterly 10-Q filings. Innovation is paramount when it comes to EVs and EV infrastructure.</p>\n<p>There's also virtually no barrier to entry when it comes to EV infrastructure. There's nothing specific about Blink's charging equipment or its networks that implies it'll be the go-to for green-focused cities and auto manufacturers.</p>\n<p>Currently on pace for a meager $12 million in full-year sales (per Wall Street), yet still lugging around a $1.3 billion market cap, Blink Charging is a good candidate to be pulverized by short-sellers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b45c4bd410befdb22fd801c7758dfb71\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTR\">MicroStrategy</a></h3>\n<p>Last, but certainly not least, is enterprise analytics software provider <b>MicroStrategy</b> (NASDAQ:MSTR). This high-flying company has a very small float of only 7.78 million shares, of which 2.14 million are currently held short.</p>\n<p>To be blunt, MicroStrategy is a software company in name only. That's because CEO Michael Saylor has seemingly ignored his company's analytics operations in favor of buying Bitcoin. As of June 21, Saylor's company owned 105,085 Bitcoins, with an aggregate cost of $2.741 billion (about $26,080 per Bitcoin).</p>\n<p>As I alluded earlier, Bitcoin has a tendency to enter protracted bear markets where it loses 80% or more of its value. It's already retraced about 50% from its all-time highs earlier this year. The issue is this: The bulk of MicroStrategy's funding to buy Bitcoin has come from issuing debt. In other words, Saylor has put his company billions of dollars into debt to buy an unproven, highly volatile asset.</p>\n<p>In addition, the company's enterprise software sales have declined for six consecutive years.

Rather, the buzz has been about the retail movement and the desire to seek out the next short squeeze.\nIn simple terms, short-sellers are investors betting on a lower share price. Since a company's share price can't go below $0, gains are capped at 100% for pessimists. Conversely, given that there's no theoretical ceiling as to how high a stock's share price can fly, losses for short-sellers are unlimited. A short squeeze is a very short-term event that involves short-sellers rushing for the exit at once. To exit their position they'll need to buy shares, which only further exacerbates the potential runaway upside in a publicly traded company.\nThe thing about investing for a short squeeze is that it's usually a poor strategy with few winners. Stocks with high short interest are often struggling businesses and rightly worth avoiding. Although the following five heavily short-sold stocks are all potentially on the short-squeeze radar for retail investors, I wouldn't expect a squeeze out of any of them.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNikola\nEven though electric vehicle (EV) stocks have been a favorite among millennial investors, Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) has attracted quite the following of pessimists. As of the end of June, more than 44.2 million shares were held short out of 191.3 million shares in its float. But this is the perfect example of a stock where pessimism is warranted.\nDespite there being room for plenty of EV manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad, Nikola has frequently broken Wall Street's and investors' trust. The company exaggerated the technological capabilities of its Nikola One electric semi truck, and its founder, Trevor Milton, stepped down from his role as executive chairman in a middle-of-the-night tweet.\nWhat's more, the Securities and Exchange Commission is also conducting an investigation into Nikola on the heels of a short-seller report from Hindenburg Research last year. Some of the allegations in that report were confirmed by a Nikola internal review.\nBuilding an EV company from the ground up is a difficult and cash-consuming process to begin with. Adding a public relations nightmare on top of it all makes this stock an easy avoid and likely kills its chances of a short squeeze.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nRiot Blockchain\nThough young investors love cryptocurrencies and virtually anything related to crypto, short-sellers have piled into cryptocurrency mining stock Riot Blockchain (NASDAQ:RIOT). There were roughly 20 million shares held short at the end of June, which compares to a tradable float of 72 million shares.\nMining for Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) might sound like a winning strategy, but it comes with three major flaws. To begin with, Bitcoin has undergone three separate corrections of at least 80% over the past decade. Since mining companies are paid via block rewards (6.25 Bitcoins, at the moment), they're entirely reliant on the rising price of Bitcoin to push revenue and profits higher, rather than innovation.\nSecondly, the barrier to entry for cryptocurrency mining is nonexistent. Over time, Riot is going to face increasing competition to validate groups of transactions, known as a block, on Bitcoin's blockchain.\nThe third issue is that Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, the block reward will halve again to 3.125 Bitcoin from 6.25 Bitcoin. Essentially, crypto mining stocks like Riot Blockchain are competing for a shrinking pie, and they're entirely dependent on external factors. That doesn't sound like the recipe for a sustainable business model.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nInovio Pharmaceuticals\nWhile most investors are rooting for clinical-stage biotech stocks to succeed, short-sellers have been piling on Inovio Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:INO). By the end of June, approximately 44.6 million shares were held short, relative to a tradable float of 206 million shares.\nOn one hand, Inovio has an impressively large pipeline consisting of 11 different clinical-stage compounds. On the other hand, the company has been in business for more than four decades and it's yet to develop a therapy that's been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Inovio always seems to offer promise, but it's consistently failed to deliver.\nAnother reason for skepticism is the company's experimental coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, INO-4800. Though it initially looked as if Inovio would be a vaccine frontrunner in the U.S., the FDA placed a partial clinical hold on its phase 2/3 study and requested additional info on the vaccine and the company's delivery device, Cellectra. Months later, the U.S. federal government pulled funding for the company's proposed late-stage study, forcing it to seek an international trial.\nEven though anything could happen during clinical trials, skeptics are historically batting 1.000 with Inovio.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBlink Charging\nA company with exceptionally high short interest that I don't believe has a realistic shot at a short squeeze is electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and network provider Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK). As of June 30, 12.2 million shares were held short, compared to a float of 36.1 million shares.\nAs with Nikola, there's plenty of hype surrounding EVs and EV infrastructure, and there'll no doubt be winners. But Blink Charging is unlikely to be one of the winners, primarily because it's not investing any of its capital into research and development, at least based on what I (and you) can see from reading its quarterly 10-Q filings. Innovation is paramount when it comes to EVs and EV infrastructure.\nThere's also virtually no barrier to entry when it comes to EV infrastructure. There's nothing specific about Blink's charging equipment or its networks that implies it'll be the go-to for green-focused cities and auto manufacturers.\nCurrently on pace for a meager $12 million in full-year sales (per Wall Street), yet still lugging around a $1.3 billion market cap, Blink Charging is a good candidate to be pulverized by short-sellers.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMicroStrategy\nLast, but certainly not least, is enterprise analytics software provider MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR). This high-flying company has a very small float of only 7.78 million shares, of which 2.14 million are currently held short.\nTo be blunt, MicroStrategy is a software company in name only. That's because CEO Michael Saylor has seemingly ignored his company's analytics operations in favor of buying Bitcoin. As of June 21, Saylor's company owned 105,085 Bitcoins, with an aggregate cost of $2.741 billion (about $26,080 per Bitcoin).\nAs I alluded earlier, Bitcoin has a tendency to enter protracted bear markets where it loses 80% or more of its value. It's already retraced about 50% from its all-time highs earlier this year. The issue is this: The bulk of MicroStrategy's funding to buy Bitcoin has come from issuing debt. In other words, Saylor has put his company billions of dollars into debt to buy an unproven, highly volatile asset.\nIn addition, the company's enterprise software sales have declined for six consecutive years. You'd think the CEO would be focused on turning a tangible business around. However, Saylor seems to spend more time promoting Bitcoin on Twitter. Suffice it to say, MicroStrategy is unlikely to squeeze its short-sellers out of their positions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":273,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":144629574,"gmtCreate":1626281932198,"gmtModify":1633928272204,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"iPhone is great!&nbsp;","listText":"iPhone is great!&nbsp;","text":"iPhone is great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/144629574","repostId":"1109822941","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1109822941","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626271170,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1109822941?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-14 21:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple at Fresh Record High on iPhone Production Boost Report, JPMorgan Upgrade","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1109822941","media":"Thestreet","summary":"Apple shares jumped to a fresh record high Wednesday following a report that the iPhone maker has asked suppliers to boost production by as much as 20% this year as it looks to meet improving customer demand.Bloomberg reported Wednesday that Apple is looking to build 90 million next-generation iPhones this year, with the world's biggest tech company expected to get a boost from the launch of new 5G handsets later this year.

Over the past week, favored equities GameStop (GME) and AMC (AMC) have plummeted, dropping about 10% and 21% respectively.\nThe decline affirms the fears of observers who had warned that a pullback was likely for shares elevated by what some consider speculative trading.\nIn a new interview, Franklin Templeton (BEN) CEO Jenny Johnson — whose investment firm manages more than $1.5 trillion in assets — criticized the trading as risky investing that could produce lucrative highs or devastating lows. However, she said she's \"optimistic\" about new trading technology that helps everyday people access the market, predicting the trend will give traders opportunities otherwise exclusive to the rich.\n\"On the meme stocks, I never like investing where there isn't fundamentals behind it,\" she says.\n\"I think that the challenge with things like the meme stocks is yeah, if you time it right, you're going to do great,\" adds Johnson, who became CEO at Franklin Templeton last February. \"On the other hand, you could lose everything.\"\nTo be sure, shares in meme stock darlings GameStop and AMC remain well above where they stood at the outset of the year. GameStop has leapt more than 900% over that period, and AMC has shot up more than 1,750%.\nShareholders in AMC showed their strength last week when online opposition to the potential issuance of new shares prompted CEO Adam Aron to cancel a vote on the proposal.\nOverall, the stock frenzy has fueled a record flow of money into the market from retail investors. Last month, the traders bought almost $28 billion of stocks and exchange-traded funds on a net basis, the largest amount in a single month since at least 2014, according to data from Vanda Research that was reported by the Wall Street Journal.\nBut wealthy investors continue to dominate the stock market.

Members cut the same percentage from their baseline, so having a higher baseline would allow the UAE a greater production quota.\nThe UAE initially called for its baseline to be raised from 3.2 million barrels a day to 3.8 million barrels a day. According to sources cited by the Wall Street Journal, the compromise reached between Saudi Arabia and its smaller neighbor will raise the UAE's baseline to 3.65 million barrels per day from April 2022. The reports have not been officially confirmed, and OPEC and the Saudi energy ministry did not reply to CNBC requests for comment.\nThe initial agreement supported by most OPEC delegates set out a plan for the group to collectively bring production up to 400,000 barrels of crude per day monthly through to the end of 2022.

The U.S. experienced the largest surge in consumer prices in more than 12 years last month, with a Labor Department gauge rising 5.4% compared to one year ago.\n\n\n“\nInflation is driving the cost of everything through the roof\n,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said at a news conference Wednesday opposing Democratic calls for Biden’s long-term social spending plan. -Bloomberg\n\nRepublicans, meanwhile, largely blame Biden and Democrats for the labor shortages at restaurants and other low-wage businessesbecause overly-generous pandemic stimulus has removed incentives to get back to work. Biden, in response, suggests these low-margin businesses should simply pay people more - calling rising wages a \"feature' of his economic plans.\n\nJob openings continue to hit record highsdespite elevated unemployment.

These stocks aren't your best bet.","content":"<p>Since the beginning of the year, the big story on Wall Street often hasn't been the pandemic. Rather, the buzz has been about the retail movement and the desire to seek out the next short squeeze.</p>\n<p>In simple terms, short-sellers are investors betting on a lower share price. Since a company's share price can't go below $0, gains are capped at 100% for pessimists. Conversely, given that there's no theoretical ceiling as to how high a stock's share price can fly, losses for short-sellers are unlimited. A short squeeze is a very short-term event that involves short-sellers rushing for the exit at once. To exit their position they'll need to buy shares, which only further exacerbates the potential runaway upside in a publicly traded company.</p>\n<p>The thing about investing for a short squeeze is that it's usually a poor strategy with few winners. Stocks with high short interest are often struggling businesses and rightly worth avoiding. Although the following five heavily short-sold stocks are all potentially on the short-squeeze radar for retail investors, I wouldn't expect a squeeze out of any of them.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fshort-squeeze-dollar-rocket-to-the-moon-stock-chart-invest-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"399\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GTY\">Getty</a> Images.</p>\n<h3>Nikola</h3>\n<p>Even though electric vehicle (EV) stocks have been a favorite among millennial investors, <b>Nikola</b> (NASDAQ:NKLA) has attracted quite the following of pessimists. As of the end of June, more than 44.2 million shares were held short out of 191.3 million shares in its float. But this is the perfect example of a stock where pessimism is warranted.</p>\n<p>Despite there being room for plenty of EV manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad, Nikola has frequently broken Wall Street's and investors' trust. The company exaggerated the technological capabilities of its Nikola One electric semi truck, and its founder, Trevor Milton, stepped down from his role as executive chairman in a middle-of-the-night tweet.</p>\n<p>What's more, the Securities and Exchange Commission is also conducting an investigation into Nikola on the heels of a short-seller report from Hindenburg Research last year. Some of the allegations in that report were confirmed by a Nikola internal review.</p>\n<p>Building an EV company from the ground up is a difficult and cash-consuming process to begin with. Adding a public relations nightmare on top of it all makes this stock an easy avoid and likely kills its chances of a short squeeze.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fcrypto-mining-graphics-card-gpu-asic-bitcoin-ethereum-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Riot Blockchain</h3>\n<p>Though young investors love cryptocurrencies and virtually anything related to crypto, short-sellers have piled into cryptocurrency mining stock <b>Riot Blockchain</b> (NASDAQ:RIOT). There were roughly 20 million shares held short at the end of June, which compares to a tradable float of 72 million shares.</p>\n<p>Mining for <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) might sound like a winning strategy, but it comes with three major flaws. To begin with, Bitcoin has undergone three separate corrections of at least 80% over the past decade. Since mining companies are paid via block rewards (6.25 Bitcoins, at the moment), they're entirely reliant on the rising price of Bitcoin to push revenue and profits higher, rather than innovation.</p>\n<p>Secondly, the barrier to entry for cryptocurrency mining is nonexistent. Over time, Riot is going to face increasing competition to validate groups of transactions, known as a block, on Bitcoin's blockchain.</p>\n<p>The third issue is that Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, the block reward will halve again to 3.125 Bitcoin from 6.25 Bitcoin. Essentially, crypto mining stocks like Riot Blockchain are competing for a shrinking pie, and they're entirely dependent on external factors. That doesn't sound like the recipe for a sustainable business model.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Fbiotech-lab-three-researchers-testing-fluids-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INO\">Inovio Pharmaceuticals</a></h3>\n<p>While most investors are rooting for clinical-stage biotech stocks to succeed, short-sellers have been piling on <b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:INO). By the end of June, approximately 44.6 million shares were held short, relative to a tradable float of 206 million shares.</p>\n<p>On <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> hand, Inovio has an impressively large pipeline consisting of 11 different clinical-stage compounds. On the other hand, the company has been in business for more than four decades and it's yet to develop a therapy that's been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Inovio always seems to offer promise, but it's consistently failed to deliver.</p>\n<p>Another reason for skepticism is the company's experimental coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, INO-4800. Though it initially looked as if Inovio would be a vaccine frontrunner in the U.S., the FDA placed a partial clinical hold on its phase 2/3 study and requested additional info on the vaccine and the company's delivery device, Cellectra. Months later, the U.S. federal government pulled funding for the company's proposed late-stage study, forcing it to seek an international trial.</p>\n<p>Even though anything could happen during clinical trials, skeptics are historically batting 1.000 with Inovio.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F633772%2Felectric-vehicle-charging-ev-green-clean-energy-auto-stock-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a></h3>\n<p>A company with exceptionally high short interest that I don't believe has a realistic shot at a short squeeze is electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and network provider <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a></b> (NASDAQ:BLNK). As of June 30, 12.2 million shares were held short, compared to a float of 36.1 million shares.</p>\n<p>As with Nikola, there's plenty of hype surrounding EVs and EV infrastructure, and there'll no doubt be winners. But Blink Charging is unlikely to be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the winners, primarily because it's not investing any of its capital into research and development, at least based on what I (and you) can see from reading its quarterly 10-Q filings. Innovation is paramount when it comes to EVs and EV infrastructure.</p>\n<p>There's also virtually no barrier to entry when it comes to EV infrastructure. There's nothing specific about Blink's charging equipment or its networks that implies it'll be the go-to for green-focused cities and auto manufacturers.</p>\n<p>Currently on pace for a meager $12 million in full-year sales (per Wall Street), yet still lugging around a $1.3 billion market cap, Blink Charging is a good candidate to be pulverized by short-sellers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b45c4bd410befdb22fd801c7758dfb71\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTR\">MicroStrategy</a></h3>\n<p>Last, but certainly not least, is enterprise analytics software provider <b>MicroStrategy</b> (NASDAQ:MSTR). This high-flying company has a very small float of only 7.78 million shares, of which 2.14 million are currently held short.</p>\n<p>To be blunt, MicroStrategy is a software company in name only. That's because CEO Michael Saylor has seemingly ignored his company's analytics operations in favor of buying Bitcoin. As of June 21, Saylor's company owned 105,085 Bitcoins, with an aggregate cost of $2.741 billion (about $26,080 per Bitcoin).</p>\n<p>As I alluded earlier, Bitcoin has a tendency to enter protracted bear markets where it loses 80% or more of its value. It's already retraced about 50% from its all-time highs earlier this year. The issue is this: The bulk of MicroStrategy's funding to buy Bitcoin has come from issuing debt.

Rather, the buzz has been about the retail movement and the desire to seek out the next short squeeze.\nIn simple terms, short-sellers are investors betting on a lower share price. Since a company's share price can't go below $0, gains are capped at 100% for pessimists. Conversely, given that there's no theoretical ceiling as to how high a stock's share price can fly, losses for short-sellers are unlimited. A short squeeze is a very short-term event that involves short-sellers rushing for the exit at once. To exit their position they'll need to buy shares, which only further exacerbates the potential runaway upside in a publicly traded company.\nThe thing about investing for a short squeeze is that it's usually a poor strategy with few winners. Stocks with high short interest are often struggling businesses and rightly worth avoiding. Although the following five heavily short-sold stocks are all potentially on the short-squeeze radar for retail investors, I wouldn't expect a squeeze out of any of them.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNikola\nEven though electric vehicle (EV) stocks have been a favorite among millennial investors, Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) has attracted quite the following of pessimists. As of the end of June, more than 44.2 million shares were held short out of 191.3 million shares in its float. But this is the perfect example of a stock where pessimism is warranted.\nDespite there being room for plenty of EV manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad, Nikola has frequently broken Wall Street's and investors' trust. The company exaggerated the technological capabilities of its Nikola One electric semi truck, and its founder, Trevor Milton, stepped down from his role as executive chairman in a middle-of-the-night tweet.\nWhat's more, the Securities and Exchange Commission is also conducting an investigation into Nikola on the heels of a short-seller report from Hindenburg Research last year. Some of the allegations in that report were confirmed by a Nikola internal review.\nBuilding an EV company from the ground up is a difficult and cash-consuming process to begin with. Adding a public relations nightmare on top of it all makes this stock an easy avoid and likely kills its chances of a short squeeze.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nRiot Blockchain\nThough young investors love cryptocurrencies and virtually anything related to crypto, short-sellers have piled into cryptocurrency mining stock Riot Blockchain (NASDAQ:RIOT). There were roughly 20 million shares held short at the end of June, which compares to a tradable float of 72 million shares.\nMining for Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) might sound like a winning strategy, but it comes with three major flaws. To begin with, Bitcoin has undergone three separate corrections of at least 80% over the past decade. Since mining companies are paid via block rewards (6.25 Bitcoins, at the moment), they're entirely reliant on the rising price of Bitcoin to push revenue and profits higher, rather than innovation.\nSecondly, the barrier to entry for cryptocurrency mining is nonexistent. Over time, Riot is going to face increasing competition to validate groups of transactions, known as a block, on Bitcoin's blockchain.\nThe third issue is that Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, the block reward will halve again to 3.125 Bitcoin from 6.25 Bitcoin. Essentially, crypto mining stocks like Riot Blockchain are competing for a shrinking pie, and they're entirely dependent on external factors. That doesn't sound like the recipe for a sustainable business model.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nInovio Pharmaceuticals\nWhile most investors are rooting for clinical-stage biotech stocks to succeed, short-sellers have been piling on Inovio Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:INO). By the end of June, approximately 44.6 million shares were held short, relative to a tradable float of 206 million shares.\nOn one hand, Inovio has an impressively large pipeline consisting of 11 different clinical-stage compounds. On the other hand, the company has been in business for more than four decades and it's yet to develop a therapy that's been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Inovio always seems to offer promise, but it's consistently failed to deliver.\nAnother reason for skepticism is the company's experimental coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, INO-4800. Though it initially looked as if Inovio would be a vaccine frontrunner in the U.S., the FDA placed a partial clinical hold on its phase 2/3 study and requested additional info on the vaccine and the company's delivery device, Cellectra. Months later, the U.S. federal government pulled funding for the company's proposed late-stage study, forcing it to seek an international trial.\nEven though anything could happen during clinical trials, skeptics are historically batting 1.000 with Inovio.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBlink Charging\nA company with exceptionally high short interest that I don't believe has a realistic shot at a short squeeze is electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and network provider Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK). As of June 30, 12.2 million shares were held short, compared to a float of 36.1 million shares.\nAs with Nikola, there's plenty of hype surrounding EVs and EV infrastructure, and there'll no doubt be winners. But Blink Charging is unlikely to be one of the winners, primarily because it's not investing any of its capital into research and development, at least based on what I (and you) can see from reading its quarterly 10-Q filings. Innovation is paramount when it comes to EVs and EV infrastructure.\nThere's also virtually no barrier to entry when it comes to EV infrastructure. There's nothing specific about Blink's charging equipment or its networks that implies it'll be the go-to for green-focused cities and auto manufacturers.\nCurrently on pace for a meager $12 million in full-year sales (per Wall Street), yet still lugging around a $1.3 billion market cap, Blink Charging is a good candidate to be pulverized by short-sellers.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMicroStrategy\nLast, but certainly not least, is enterprise analytics software provider MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR). This high-flying company has a very small float of only 7.78 million shares, of which 2.14 million are currently held short.\nTo be blunt, MicroStrategy is a software company in name only. That's because CEO Michael Saylor has seemingly ignored his company's analytics operations in favor of buying Bitcoin. As of June 21, Saylor's company owned 105,085 Bitcoins, with an aggregate cost of $2.741 billion (about $26,080 per Bitcoin).\nAs I alluded earlier, Bitcoin has a tendency to enter protracted bear markets where it loses 80% or more of its value. It's already retraced about 50% from its all-time highs earlier this year. The issue is this: The bulk of MicroStrategy's funding to buy Bitcoin has come from issuing debt. In other words, Saylor has put his company billions of dollars into debt to buy an unproven, highly volatile asset.\nIn addition, the company's enterprise software sales have declined for six consecutive years. You'd think the CEO would be focused on turning a tangible business around. However, Saylor seems to spend more time promoting Bitcoin on Twitter. Suffice it to say, MicroStrategy is unlikely to squeeze its short-sellers out of their positions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":273,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":144664581,"gmtCreate":1626281477543,"gmtModify":1633928273522,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Trade with caution","listText":"Trade with caution","text":"Trade with caution","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/144664581","repostId":"2151551418","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2151551418","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626271991,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2151551418?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-14 22:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"'You could lose everything' on meme stocks: Franklin Templeton CEO","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2151551418","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"The meme stock craze has cooled off — at least temporarily.

And it underscored how quickly the pandemic's latest surge had unsettled Americans who had begun to believe the worst was over, sending politicians and public health officials scrambling to recalibrate their responses.\n\"This is like the moment in the horror movie when you think the horror is over and the credits are about to roll,\" said Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md. \"And it all starts back up again.\"\nThe choice by millions to reject the vaccine has had the consequences that public health officials predicted: The number of new cases in the country has shot up almost 250 per cent since the beginning of the month, with an average of more than 41,000 infections being diagnosed each day during the past week - up from 12,000.\nThe disease caused by the virus is claiming about 250 lives each day - far fewer than during the peaks last year, but still 42 per cent higher than two weeks ago. More than 97 per cent of those hospitalised are unvaccinated, Dr Walensky said last week.\nThe public health crisis is particularly acute in parts of the country where vaccination rates are the lowest. In Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, the number of daily new cases is up more than 200 per cent in the past two weeks, driving new hospitalisations and deaths almost exclusively among the unvaccinated. Intensive care units are filled or filling in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas.\nThe turnabout is forcing both political parties in Washington to grapple - so far in halting and tentative ways - with questions about what tone they should strike, what guidance they should provide and what changes they need to make to confront the latest iteration of the worst public health crisis in a century.\nThe White House announced new grants on Thursday to local health offices for vaccines and increased testing in rural communities, even as administration officials said they were \"making continued progress in our fight against the virus\" and insisted that there was no need to reconsider their basic strategy. Although reports of so-called breakthrough infections in vaccinated people are growing, they remain relatively uncommon, and those that cause severe illness, hospitalisation or death are especially so.\nOn Capitol Hill on Thursday, House Republican leaders and elected doctors only grudgingly signalled their support for vaccinations, though even that support was mixed.\n\"If you are at risk, you should be getting this vaccine,\" said Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland, a physician, adding, \"We urge all Americans to talk to their doctors about the risks of Covid-19, talk to their doctors about the benefits of getting vaccinated and then come to a decision.\"\nRep. Greg Murphy, R-N.C., said, \"This vaccine is a medicine, and just like with any other medicines, there are side effects and this is a personal decision.\"\nTheir news conference was advertised as an attempt to \"discuss the need for individuals to get vaccinated.\" But it was dominated by efforts to promote an unproven theory that the Chinese released a virulent, human-made virus on the world and accusations that Democrats covered it up.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171203621,"gmtCreate":1626744685063,"gmtModify":1633771488060,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple","listText":"Apple","text":"Apple","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171203621","repostId":"2152637484","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152637484","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1626707940,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2152637484?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-19 23:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 No-Brainer Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152637484","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"They have great businesses and great growth prospects.","content":"<blockquote>\n They have great businesses and great growth prospects.\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Key Points</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>These no-brainer Buffett stocks to buy include the legendary investor's two favorite stocks plus one that he regrets buying sooner.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Warren Buffett doesn't always beat the market.

I fully expect that Amazon will find even more markets to enter over the coming years, rewarding shareholders along the way.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":282,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171073325,"gmtCreate":1626699785767,"gmtModify":1633924848551,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","listText":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","text":"I would like to try Xpeng car!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/171073325","repostId":"1171640883","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1171640883","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626675300,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1171640883?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-19 14:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng prices its new sedan at $24,700 undercutting Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1171640883","media":"CNBC","summary":"GUANGZHOU, China — Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng Inc. has priced its new P5 sedan as low as 160,00","content":"<div>\n<p>GUANGZHOU, China — Chinese electric carmaker Xpeng Inc. has priced its new P5 sedan as low as 160,000 yuan ($24,694) days after Tesla launched a cheaper version of its Model Y sports utility vehicle\n...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/19/xpeng-p5-price-starts-at-24700-undercutting-tesla-model-3-in-china.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;

There are six different versions of the car with different features, and prices range from 160,000 yuan to 230,000 yuan.\nXpeng's P7 sedan starts from 229,900 yuan after subsidies. Tesla's Model 3 starts from 250,900 yuan in China.\nThe Guangzhou-headquartered company is using Lidar, or light detection and ranging technology, in the P5 to boost some of its semi-autonomous driving features. Lidar uses laser beams to map out the surrounding environment, and measure the distance of objects to help the car determine obstacles in its pathway.\nFour out of the six P5 models come fitted with Lidar and Xpeng's advanced driver-assistancesystem (ADAS) called XPILOT.\nXpeng is one of a number of players in China's electric vehicle industry which spans from established automakers through to start-ups.\nTesla, which has facedweeks of bad press in China, introduced a cheaper version of its Model Y SUV with a shorter driving range this month, which starts at 276,000 yuan after subsidies.\nXpeng delivered 17,398 vehicles in the second quarter of the year, a 439% increase year-over-year. The company will be hoping the P5 can help it to continue to grow sales in a new price segment.\nThis month, Xpeng, which is already listed in New York, carried out a so-calleddual primary listing in Hong Kongand raised 14.02 billion Hong Kong dollars ($1.8 billion).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":321,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":144699973,"gmtCreate":1626277940592,"gmtModify":1633928303455,"author":{"id":"3574912281187173","authorId":"3574912281187173","name":"SandraLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d043d611682c7883cb5dec6b175827e8","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574912281187173","authorIdStr":"3574912281187173"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Mixed feel","listText":"Mixed feel","text":"Mixed feel","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/144699973","repostId":"1181513394","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1181513394","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626276027,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1181513394?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-14 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"OPEC reportedly reaches compromise on oil production after dispute with UAE","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1181513394","media":"CNBC","summary":"DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries on Wednesday arrived","content":"<div>\n<p>DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries on Wednesday arrived at a deal after a nearly two-week standoff over its future oil production levels, according to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/14/opec-reportedly-reaches-compromise-on-oil-production-after-dispute-with-uae.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;

Members cut the same percentage from their baseline, so having a higher baseline would allow the UAE a greater production quota.\nThe UAE initially called for its baseline to be raised from 3.2 million barrels a day to 3.8 million barrels a day. According to sources cited by the Wall Street Journal, the compromise reached between Saudi Arabia and its smaller neighbor will raise the UAE's baseline to 3.65 million barrels per day from April 2022. The reports have not been officially confirmed, and OPEC and the Saudi energy ministry did not reply to CNBC requests for comment.\nThe initial agreement supported by most OPEC delegates set out a plan for the group to collectively bring production up to 400,000 barrels of crude per day monthly through to the end of 2022. This would end the remaining limits that were set in the spring of 2020, as economic recovery and growing demand for oil have broughtcrude prices up to their highest level since late 2018.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":169,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
